In Ralph Halsenhuttl's four-forward system, all four of them are capable of playing as wingers, and the use of the wide flanks behind the wingers of teams that rely on full-backs to provide firepower is relied on for high-speed counter-attacks.

The four forwards have different divisions, with Yusof Paulsen pulling the opposition defence and acting as a fulcrum up front, Marcel Sabitzer attacking and defending on the right and linking right wing-back Stefan Ilsanke and striker Timo Werner, Emile Forsberg for the inside pull and playmaking up the front on the left, and Timo Werner for the left and right flanks to create scoring opportunities.

Last season, the four major strikers, Forsberg scored 8 goals, Sabitzer also scored 8 goals, Werner was the team's top scorer with 21 goals, and the fourth highest scorer in the Bundesliga last season, with the fewest goals, was Paulsen with only 5 goals, and the four forwards scored a total of 42 goals, accounting for more than 6% of the team's total league goals.

It can be seen that RB Leipzig's attacking firepower is very scattered, and teams that don't expect one person to score goals are always more threatening, which is also a high-level form of no striker, not without blades, but everywhere.

While the rotation may be a bit jerky up front, it's undeniable that RB Leipzig can be called a strong team in the Bundesliga, and they can already threaten the status of the traditional giants.

Leipzig's firepower can't cover up a somewhat fragile defence, with Leipzig conceding the second-most goals in the Bundesliga's top four last season, just one more than Borussia Dortmund, who conceded the most.

Leipzig's tactic is to shrink the defense and spread the ball in the backfield, rely on the wide players to dribble forward, break through, and use the fulcrum of one of the four forwards to pull out the space, so that the rest of the players on the front line can quickly occupy the empty space A "false pass, real counterattack" tactic. Its pressing in the front court and the pressure and back in the midfield are integrated, relying on the characteristics of young players with good physical fitness and a combination of short and long-distance running tactics to create counterattack space at any time.

Its disadvantage is that the middle defense and offensive manufacturing ability is slightly insufficient, and can not occupy enough midfield space, this tactic is willing to play the opponent's counterattack, but also more afraid of the opponent's counterattack, and the position of the attack is more dependent on the "card" of the midfield, the middle for a long time only two points for passing, so the wing players need to become 442 type to assist the front court to advance the ball.

Ralph Rangnick is well aware of the strengths and weaknesses of his team, continuing last season's tactics and fighting for the top three in the Bundesliga, but it may take more tactical level to break through in a faster-paced and more defensive intensity in Europe.

Tottenham Hotspur's tragic performances in the Champions League and Europa League last season, similar to the team's tactics, were enough to sound the alarm for Leipzig.

The special two-front battle is a great test of the team's squad depth, just look at the end of last season's Bayer Leverkusen and Borussia Dortmund's two-front battle.

"The seven games we lost last season, except for the double defeat by Bayern, the remaining five games were basically complete defeats, because in our five games, we didn't score a single goal, which is a shame for us in attacking football."

Listening to Rangnick's words, Hasenhuttl was speechless, RB Leipzig lost 7 games last season, except for the penultimate round of the league against Bayern, which scored a goal, and the remaining 6 games did not score a goal.

Three of the seven games were at home, with 0-3 and 0-1 defeats to Hamburg and Wolfsburg, some of which should not have been, while an away defeat to relegated Ingolstadt exposed the inconsistent form of young Leipzig.

'I watched him at Arsenal several times knowing he was coming, and his arrival not only perfected our usual high-pressure play, but also his set-piece ability to make us more dangerous in attack.

"Well, especially his strong anticipation and game reading ability, which allows us to press the defensive line forward, and when we are in positional battles, we can sort out the offensive and defensive transitions in the midfield."

"During the training camp, I will strengthen the run-in, but fortunately, the tactics have not changed much, and the run-in problem is not very big."

"In the new season, we are confident that we will make even greater progress!"

Time flies, time flies, although Zhang Zhetian left Arsenal, but returned to the Emirates Stadium at the end of July, but as a RB Leipzig player, playing in the Emirates Cup.

According to the schedule, RB Leipzig does not play against Arsenal, which also allows Zhang Zhetian to avoid the situation of playing against his old club so early, although it is a friendly match, but Leipzig's game is full, and most of the gun fans thank Zhang Zhetian for his contribution to the team last season, so that the world can see the huge popularity of Zhang Zhetian.

Although he left early, he left two heavyweight titles and a transfer fee of 100 million pounds for the team, although he was reluctant and puzzled, but the Gunners fans are still grateful to this German-Chinese, just looking forward to the future in the Champions League, if they can avoid it, they will avoid it, because they know that it is difficult to beat the team that plays against Zhang Zhetian, and they witnessed it with their own eyes last season.

In the first game of the Emirates Cup, RB Leipzig defeated the La Liga powerhouse Sevilla 1-0 with a free kick from Zhang Zhetian, this battle, Zhang Zhetian did not play, Leipzig still beat last season's Portuguese Super League champion Benfica with two goals, because of the few goals and the points are not as good as the host Arsenal, so RB Leipzig succumbed to Arsenal and won the runner-up of the Emirates Cup.

After returning to Germany, the time also entered August, and RB Leipzig completed the last warm-up game at home, ended the pre-season training camp, and began to prepare for the new season of the Bundesliga.

RB Leipzig's summer training and friendlies have lived up to expectations, and their league rivals Bayern Munich and Borussia Dort, despite their negative successes in advancing internationalisation and strategic matters, are really detrimental in terms of competitive factors.

Bayern president Uli Hoeness also recently admitted that the trip to Asia caused the players to feel generally tired and hard, which directly affected the team's pre-season preparations.

I have to say that the trip to Asia is indeed a double-edged sword.

For Chinese fans, the opportunity to see the Bundesliga team in action is a very valuable experience, but for Bayern, Dort and other teams, they have to sacrifice precious pre-season training time.

While Leipzig and others are sweating on the training ground, Bayern Munich and Borussia Dortmund are constantly attending various events, which makes it clear that they will not be able to show their full competitive form immediately after returning to Europe, let alone those who have suffered injuries during their trip to Asia.

On the evening of August 5, after the German Super Cup, which was the appetizer of the Bundesliga, Zhang Zhetian, who watched the normal game in the stands, pointed to the sky to Darko Makwitz next to him, and said with a smile: "It's going to change." ”
