Li Lei didn't know that in fact, his sonorous and powerful and confident words actually had a precedent in the American basketball world, and this protagonist was Michael Jordan, who has long been known as the god of basketball. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. ｂiquge。 ｉｎfo

At that time, Jordan was in the same situation as Li Lei.

That was when Jordan was still in the college basketball league, and when practicing passing, Jordan would often jump high and pass after fully reading the defense. However, because this kind of passing method was very easy for the defender to recognize and break the ball, it was regarded as a deviant move that should never be done in the basketball world at the time.

But in fact, for Jordan, who is extremely good at bouncing and staying in the air, jumping and passing the ball will be a miracle move that can win in some moments when the defense is too tight.

He himself understood it this way, except that his college coach at the time could not accept Jordan's point of view. To this end, there were lengthy discussions between the conservative coach and Jordan, sometimes even heated arguments.

But in the end, neither of them could convince the other party.

In the end, Jordan, who couldn't bear it, said something similar to Li Lei's words to his coach, as long as he made a mistake on the court, he would never use the jump pass again.

As a result, it is well known, Jordan won.

At that time, after saying this, Jordan immediately used jump passes in the next college basketball game, which not only did not make a single mistake, but also activated the offense of the whole team.

This result left his college coach speechless, and in the end, he had to let Jordan go.

Li Lei, who doesn't like basketball, doesn't know this allusion, but his idea is the same as Jordan's, using results and on-court performance to conquer the head coach, instead of using reason and mouth.

For this reason, they all made an agreement that was extremely unfair to themselves, and if they made a mistake, they would never mention it again.

And Ferguson, like Jordan's coach at the time, was impressed by the absolute sharpness of this young man's self-confidence. They may still disagree with it, but they are not the kind of people who are arbitrary and can't listen to any different opinions, especially on the road to developing young players, leaving a little room for them to play freely.

Seeing that Li Lei's words had come to this, Ferguson also knew that no matter how much he persuaded him, it was useless to scold Li Lei, and he couldn't understand the stubborn temper of the bastard boy in front of him who broke through the south wall and never looked back.

However, it is impossible for him to agree so easily. He also had to ask carefully what the change in Li Lei's mouth was.

Ferguson took a deep breath, glanced at Li Lei meaningfully, and asked, "Okay, you can tell me what you think first?" ”

Li Lei was happy in his heart, he knew that if Ferguson could say this, it meant that there was a drama. He took a deep breath, calmed his excitement, and sorted out his thoughts in his mind before he spoke.

"As much as I appreciate the way Ikita plays, I'm never going to copy it." This is the big tone at the beginning, Li Lei is not stupid until now, he has all his thoughts and ideas, and it is the safest to try and change some things that are suitable for the current situation of the team. He knows very well that it will not happen overnight or in a season for his ideas to be fully realized and matured.

Seeing that Ferguson nodded noncommittally and did not show an expression of disapproval, he continued: "I think that with my physical fitness, just staying in the penalty area to guard and defend is a bit not fully utilizing and guiding the full potential of my body. Especially with the prospect of a lengthy ban at the moment, I feel like I can do my job and play as half a centre-back. For example,......"

In the beginning, Ferguson listened to it, but he didn't really take it very seriously. Although he agreed with Li Lei's idea of trying, he still felt in his heart that this was just an attempt by Li Lei when he was young and did not know the height of the sky, and it did not have much practical value.

But halfway through the hearing, the Scottish coach finally became serious. In his opinion, although Li Lei's ideas are still a little naïve, they are by no means without shining points. He thinks that if Li Lei's experiment can really be successful, it may be a very suitable for the Manchester United central defender position that is currently giving him a headache, and it is a very targeted reinforcement, without the need to bring in any new players.

In fact, many people don't know that Ferguson certainly has a conservative and old-fashioned side, but he also has a little-known side of seeking new goals.

Ferguson is good at learning and has the courage to reform, and is a rare tactical reformist coach in world football, a tactician who bravely dares to reform his own life.

When he first came to Manchester United, the whole of England, including Manchester United, played a typical British 442 tactic, revolving around the simple core of aerial work, with a strong focus on high strikers.

But Ferguson's arrival changed that, and after narrowly retaining the Reds' position with an FA Cup title, he immediately embarked on a tactical overhaul of the Reds.

He learns from the continental style of play of the European continent, emphasizing the ball control and technical superiority at the feet, the striker is no longer fixed in the penalty area, and the opponent's central defender must form a positive interference, and the wing is no longer only pursuing crosses, especially blind crosses at a 45-degree angle, to actively tear and take advantage of the opponent's rib gaps.

Such a change may not seem like much now, but in England at the time, it was a creation change. And, that's not the end. In addition to this, he also learned defense from Serie A teams and tactical discipline from Bundesliga teams.

It is also in this way that the glory of Manchester United's 92 class dynasty and the great cause of the treble were achieved, and Ferguson made the most outstanding contributions to Manchester United, the red empire. If it weren't for this, he probably wouldn't have the transcendent status he has now at Manchester United, and even the owner would be three points inferior in the face of him.

So, Ferguson is by no means a tactically blind coach.

What Li Lei is talking about at the moment may still be a kind of deviant in world football, but the Scottish coach is keenly aware of a hint of a possible new direction for tactical changes in world football in the future.

It's just a glimmer of the moment, and Ferguson's biggest headache at the moment is the present, especially given the fact that Manchester United will face back-to-back league rivals Liverpool and Premier League upstart Chelsea in the future.

Liverpool, of course, needless to say, as England's red giant, its battle for English supremacy with Manchester United has always been the focus of English football. Although the rise of Arsenal in recent years has stolen a lot of the limelight from Liverpool, the English national derby and the red derby are still the most resounding signs of the Premier League and even English football.

On the other hand, Chelsea, who have been playing in the Premier League, have also become a difficult target this season. The arrival of Russian oligarch Roman Abramovich has sent Chelsea by storm across European football. In just one season, they have built a strong team with money, and they are currently clinging to Manchester United in the standings, ranking third, and they are aggressive.

In media interviews and in public, although Ferguson will always refuge Chelsea's lavish spending and blindly raising the value of players, and strongly state that money cannot buy championships, the old coach knows very well in his heart how great the charm of Chelsea's money is so reckless.

In today's increasingly commercial football world, money is no less attractive to players than loyalty and honor.

What's more, the fighting power shown by Chelsea under the leadership of Italian coach Claudio Ranieri this season is enough for Ferguson to secretly put Chelsea on his watch list in his heart.

He had a hunch that as long as the Russian oligarch continued to invest like that in the coming seasons, Chelsea would pose a huge challenge to his side in the Premier League.

If it was at the height of Manchester United's treble, Ferguson might not have the slightest fear, but Manchester United has completely entered a period of rebuilding after this summer.

If I could buy that Brazilian in the summer... Thinking of this, Ferguson's heart was distressed and angry, if it wasn't for the damn Barcelona cut off the beard, how could I have such a headache like now!

He then shook his head again, driving away these thoughts, the matter was over, and it was not his Ferguson style to dwell and think about it again.

At this time, Li Lei's narration had finished, and he was slightly nervously waiting for Ferguson's final decision.

Seeing this, Ferguson was slightly happy in his heart, humming, so that you stinky boy dare to disobey my wishes. For this reason, he was going to speak, but he deliberately squinted his eyes, and was silent and left Li Lei for a while before speaking.

"Yes, yes..."

While banging directly on the desk, he said to Li Lei with full of inquiry: "Doorman? ”

Seeing that Ferguson finally spoke, Li Lei couldn't help but be happy on his face, and hurriedly replied: "Yes, it's the goalkeeper, the goalkeeper plus half a central defender's collective play, the doorman's play." You saw the game against Blackburn Rovers that the current centre-back mix is really unsatisfactory and Leo could be banned for a long time, so I think that style of play will work for a long time to come. ”

When it comes to Rio Ferdinand, Ferguson has a bit of a headache, damn the English FA! It's all a group of fools who can only eat!! Pig!!!

It's just that no matter how dissatisfied he is, according to the information he and Manchester United have received, Rio Ferdinand's long-term ban may be inevitable. It is unlikely that the ban will be more than a year, but more than half a year is a certainty.

If that's the case... Guard... Ferguson groaned.

Seeing that Ferguson was slow to speak, Li Lei could only be anxious on the sidelines. For the old man in front of him, who has the grace of reinvention for himself, he does not dare to have any disobedience.

"Okay!"

After a long while, Li Lei, who was sweating profusely in a hurry, finally heard the answer he wanted from Ferguson.

"But," Li Lei's heart tightened again, and he listened firmly: "As said, there is only one chance for trial and error." Remember, only once. And once you can't do it, not only do you have to obediently follow my instructions and teachings from now on, and you can't have any objections, even the position of the main goalkeeper this season you don't have to think about it. ”

After speaking, Ferguson, who had a cold face, looked at Li Lei with a solemn face in his heart. He was beating Li Lei, although he agreed with Li Lei's idea, but Li Lei's practice of taking risks and experiments without his consent in the game against Blackburn still made the old coach a little angry.

"Good!" After a moment of silence, Li Lei's firm and loud voice sounded in Ferguson's study.

His eyes looked directly at the cold-faced old handsome, his gaze was hot and determined.

It's hot like fire!

Firm as a rock!!
