Chapter Ninety-Four: The Young General

After the weekend's home league game with Atletico Madrid, the team's main striker Forlan was unable to travel to Aalborg due to a sudden flu situation, so in the pre-match tactical preparations, Van Bizhuang was once again temporarily pushed up the front. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. biqUgE怂 ļ½‰ļ½Žļ½†ļ½

That's what Pellegrini did on purpose. Last season, Van Bizhuang has proved his talent in attack with practical actions, and the league assist king is the best proof of this, but this is not enough, the Chilean coach believes that Van Bizhuang's offensive ability still has the possibility of digging potential.

So in the new season, Van Bizhuang has been gradually pushed closer to the penalty area, and most importantly, he has been given more right to fire. In comparison, in the past, Fan Bizhuang was more about serving the team as a whole, but this season, the situation has changed a lot, in other words, Fan Bizhuang, who has become the core of the team, the whole team is revolving around him, and it is not an exaggeration to say that it is for him.

Just like many big teams have their own core characters, they are the biggest stars of a certain team, they can score a lot of goals, they can lead the team forward, and even when many people mention this team, people's first impression will think of this player, like a label.

And now Van Bizhuang is obviously Villarreal's most capable label, so the club did not hesitate to carry out various tactical arrangements around him, and Van Bizhuang also repaid the team with excellent performance.

This is known as "star dependence".

There are pros and cons to this kind of dependency, it can be regarded as a double-edged sword, when the core person plays well, the whole team can be invincible, and once the core person is at a low ebb or is limited by the opponent, then the overall performance of the team will be greatly reduced.

Villarreal aren't really big clubs, they have a team full of superstars, and when one superstar is confined and frozen, another will step up. Therefore, once Fan Bizhuang is contained, then the combat effectiveness of the whole team will drop by more than one point.

It's just fortunate that so far, such a situation has not been encountered, and the fact that Fan Bizhuang has been completely contained has never happened.

In Manuel Pellegrini's words, it's better to have someone to rely on than no one to rely on, and maybe there will be some inevitable problems in the future, but they are already much happier than most of the teams in the middle and lower tiers, at least the team has a thick thigh that other teams want but can't.

In the premise of the position, with the absolute right to fire and can get the fire support of the whole team, Fan Bizhuang's offensive ability has been raised to a new level, since the change of formation, only four league games, Fan Bizhuang has scored nine goals, this data is not to say that the opponent is frightened, even the teammates are dumbfounded.

No one will doubt or deny Fan Bizhuang's goalscoring ability, so it is only natural that Fan Bizhuang will play a new role and become the team's permanent striker.

Mr. Ruben is also full of confidence in this, of course, for the sentence "I look forward to your senior happiness", he is only joking. In his cognition, it is not difficult for Fan Bizhuang to score a goal, but if it is said that he scored a hat trick or even a big four, this is a little unrealistic, this kind of thing is unavoidable, otherwise it is really a professional league to play a game? If it was so easy to score goals, world football would have been "as many as dogs".

Thinking about it this way, what Mr. Ruben didn't know was that the joke he said turned out to be a reality in the next day's competition.

………………………………………………………………………………………………………

For Villarreal, it was a must-win game even though it was an away game.

The current situation in Group E can be described as a bit tangled, because all four teams drew in the first round, so the points are the same, and after the second round, both games have been decided, Manchester United won away to Alburg, Villarreal also beat Celtic 2-0 in Scotland, Manchester United and Villarreal have four points at the same time, the latter is temporarily second in the group with a goal difference.

With this in mind, Manchester United and Villarreal are in a favourable position and are arguably the two most likely teams to make it out of this group.

But it's just a possibility, after all, the difference between the four teams is not big, and the difference between the first and last places is only three points, and the distance of a game is just that, and the ranking of each team can change at any time.

The most important thing is that Manchester United will definitely be able to book a place to qualify, there is no doubt about this, so in this case, Villarreal can only grab as many points as possible if they want to qualify smoothly, or if they want to keep the initiative of qualifying in their own hands.

In the definition of the other three teams, Alborg is definitely the proper score-giving boy, and if they can't get enough points against their weakest opponents, then the situation is likely to turn against the submarine.

For example, Celtic, they capsized in the first round of the group stage against Alborg and only won a draw, so they are in a bad situation at the moment, otherwise, if they get three points, then even if they lose to Villarreal in the last round, they have three points, and the gap of one point can be erased at any time, or even overtaken.

Villarreal don't want to be in the same embarrassing situation as the Soviet Super League giants Celtic, so they are bound to win this game!

However, in the day's game, Villarreal had some bad luck.

Alborg was able to unexpectedly draw with Celtic at home, I have to say that there is still some truth in the saying that there is no weak team in Europe, although Denmark is only a second- or third-rate league in Europe, but it can be among the best in a country's top league, Alborg still has a certain strength.

At the Aalborg Stadium, which can accommodate more than 40,000 people, the home team put their posture very low as soon as they came up, and they also knew that their quality was undoubtedly the bottom of the group, but the underdogs also had a way to survive, and their approach was to lower their posture and use defense and counter-attacks to try to score points.

After the opening, the two sides had a trial for nearly ten minutes or so, and after determining that the opponent was a tactical strategy based on steady defense, Villarreal immediately made changes and increased the pressing and attacking rhythm of the midfield.

In this game, Villarreal was rotated to a certain extent, the forward line was Nihatt, Rossi and Van Bizhuang, and the midfielder Riquelme was in the center to command and dispatch, Senna carried out defensive sweeps, the forward guard was only Fernandez, the four defenders were Renas, Godin, Fuentes and Angel, and the goalkeeper was Vieira, who gradually became the second goalkeeper in the new season.

Such a set of lineup is a big change, it's not that Villarreal doesn't pay enough attention to this game, it is indeed because of the weakness of the team as a whole exposed in the last round of the league, which sounded the alarm for the coaching team.

In the face of strong opponents, Villarreal naturally did not dare to play with fire and had to go all out, but Alborg is not a strong team, and the coaching staff agreed that as long as the attacking firepower of the front court is maintained, the team will not have much problem in rotation.

This approach is suspected of disrespecting the opponent, but this is also a helpless thing, who makes you the weakest, who is weak and who ignores it, the world of football recognizes this reason.

The club decided that a strong attacking line up front would be enough to keep Alborg under control, and in fact it was, and after ten minutes of the game, the Submarine was already in the driver's seat, firmly dominating the game, while the home side were in the half.

Despite the defensive pressure, Aalborg was resilient, and they resisted again and again in the face of the ferocious attacks of the submarines.

If you can't attack for a long time, you will lose, and the consequence of the unfamiliar backline is that they are not familiar with each other, and they are not tacit, and in the 23rd minute of the game, there was an embarrassing hole in Villarreal's right corridor.

Right wing-back Renas, who has been promoted from the development squad this season, has rarely been given a start in the top flight, and has spent most of his time playing in domestic cup competitions with substitutes, and as such, he has rarely made an appearance. Now that he has become the team's starter, and is still in the Champions League, the eighteen-year-old Spaniard is not only nervous, but also excited and excited.

Excitement and excitement are not a bad thing, the story of a goal to fame is what every fledgling young player aspires to, but if it is overdone, it is not a good thing.

Rainas was obviously overexcited, and at the beginning of the game, he stayed on his one-acre three-point plot in a decent way, but as time went on, after discovering that the opponent was completely on the defensive, Rainas couldn't hold back and began to insert assists frequently. Later, he became more and more emboldened, almost using himself as a wing-back, staying near the centre circle and not coming back much, ready to devote himself to the attack.

Young players want to come out on top, to show themselves and make a better impression on their coaches and team-mates, and that's understandable. If you play well, maybe you will reach the sky in one step, not to mention the main position, at least the playing time will be greatly increased in the future, but if you play badly, then it will ......

Obviously, in the first ten minutes or so, the active Renas performed remarkably, but the more he played, the more confident the Spanish guy became, he immediately made an unforgivable mistake.
