Chapter 23: Wave Array
Soon, Midl was happy, because in the face of his pressing, Wang Shuai would always pass the ball to his teammates and never be tough with him. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 infoThis gave Midl the illusion that Wang Shuai was afraid of him, and his pressing became more ferocious.
Is Wang Shuai really afraid of Midder? Apparently not. Both of them are senior professional players, even if Wang Shuai's attributes are slightly inferior, but with the addition of various skills, Midder can't beat Wang Shuai. And Wang Shuai did not choose to break through directly in the face of Middle, just because if he did break through, Aston Villa's other players may not be able to break through other positions in the Newcastle defense in the same way. And once the formation is divided, even if Wang Shuai has outstanding technical strength, he will be overstretched in the face of the opponent's bag.
What's more, Wang Shuai has long known that Newcastle's three senior professional players are all midfielders, and the battle for the ball in the midfield has also become the focus of this game. Whether it is offensive or defensive, Wang Shuai is the absolute core player against the opponent's midfield, and he is also the one who needs to be stabilized the most.
……
10th minute of the game.
Middel gradually became a little impatient, because Wang Shuai was like a loach, always slipping out of his hand when he was about to catch him.
"Hey, Luke, Ciel, I'm just doing it alone, are you two embarrassed?!" After Wang Shuai passed the ball away under his nose again, Midl was really angry and yelled at the other two senior professional teammates.
"Middle, calm down, calm down." Luke persuaded on the side, "Remember what the coach said, the midfield must be steady, your position is a bit messed up now!" ”
"Fuck calm down......," Middlel muttered, but perhaps Luke's words played a role, and Middlel stopped being so frantic about pressing, but just followed Wang Shuai not far away.
Although Luke didn't speak loudly, there were still a few words that drifted into Wang Shuai's ears, such as "calm down", "midfield", "steady" and the like. And after seeing Middle's performance, Wang Shuai could also guess the content of the conversation between Middlel and Luke.
In fact, for Middel's previous crazy pressing, Wang Shuai was still secretly happy. As long as this performance continues for another five minutes, Middle's position will be the breakthrough point for Aston Villa. It's just that Wang Shuai didn't expect Luke's words to really calm down Middel.
……
Five minutes later, the ball finally had its first conversion when a bad pass from Greenhouse allowed Hill to seize the opportunity and keep the ball out.
In this game, in order to strengthen the control of the midfield, Wang Shuai replaced Herman with Zhou Aniu as the starter, and the team's formation was converted to a 4-5-1 single back and double forward formation. At the same time, Aston Villa have also used a new seven-man defensive formation, the wave formation.
Strictly speaking, a wave array is made up of two small arc micro-tactics. The first is the midfield defence, with two central midfielders up front and the midfielders at the back, and the second is a back four. The reason why these seemingly simple two defensive lines can become an independent micro-tactic is that the players in the midfield position play a more critical role.
Although in the general defensive task, the back is only involved in the defense of the midfield, but in fact, the back in the wave formation also has to take into account the side and defense at the same time, and the wave formation also provides a 5% speed bonus to the back waist, which is convenient for it to fight fires everywhere.
It's just that Zhou Aniu's speed has become a well-known hard injury, and he can't take care of three defensive tasks at all. Therefore, when Newcastle controlled the ball in this game, Wang Shuai and Zhou Aniu changed positions, and he himself withdrew to the back position in the center of the wave formation and took on the responsibility of fighting the fire.
……
in the audience.
"It's a boring game to watch."
"It's just that if you don't attack all the time, you know how to have the ball."
"yes, not to mention just controlling the ball, and losing the ball."
"Alas, I don't know what's going on with Wang Shuai, there have been three games without any eye-catching performances."
In fact, it is not surprising that the audience has this reaction, after five rounds of the explosive league (the second round of the league Leif did not let Wang Shuai play) plus a League Cup, Wang Shuai took the games against Brentford and Ipswich Town as tactical training, which will naturally make the game lose a lot of highlights. Then in this game, Wang Shuai arranged conservative tactics again, and the audience couldn't help but think of the sluggish Aston Villa last season, and it was normal to be disappointed in Wang Shuai and even the whole team.
No matter what the crowd reacts, the game goes on. After seeing the team steal the ball, Middlel hurriedly signaled for the ball. His idea is very simple, since he can't restrict Wang Shuai's passing, then blow up the opponent in the attack.
It's just that the reality is destined to disappoint Middle, because after he received the pass, Wang Shuai has withdrawn to the position of the back midfield, and now it is Zhou Aniu who is opposite Midel. Seeing that he couldn't take revenge on Wang Shuai, Midl was full of resentment and sprinkled it on Zhou Aniu. After a stop-and-go smash changed direction, Middlel managed to shake off Zhou's defense, but he obviously underestimated Zhou's defensive range.
With his excellent physical strength, Zhou Aniu's ordinary steals can achieve the effect of others putting tackles, which makes Zhou Aniu's speed his weakness, but his defensive range is still comparable to other defenders of the same level. So, after thinking that he had successfully shaken off Zhou Aniu, Middlel was just about to pass the ball to Luke in the middle, when he saw a foot stretched out next to him, causing the football to deviate from its original trajectory.
Fortunately, Middle's breakthrough was quite successful, and Zhou Aniu's distance was not very close, which made the steal just now just rub the ball into the football, and Luke still controlled the ball at his feet after taking a step back. However, due to this pause, Newcastle's attack was also interrupted.
……
Two minutes later, after a couple of back-to-back kicks, Newcastle regrouped their attacking formation, this time with Luke as the playmaker, and Middle, who had not yet fully calmed down, took on the role of receiver along with Hill.
Newcastle's formation is 4-3-3, with three central midfielders like Yangcheng Hengyuan, and Luke is the one in the middle, both on the field and in the game tasks, he is also the same as Hengyuan's Rick. And with such a position arrangement, Luke is not surprising to be on the throne with Wang Shuai.
