While Derby County was immersed in winning the league title, Wan Sheng was constantly thinking about tactics, and he only had a general plan in terms of tactics, and the details still needed to be considered.

However, he knows that this is not the main thing, and the fighting spirit of the team is more important than the tactics, as the media said, "Derby County have lost their fighting spirit and motivation after winning the league title", the situation of the team is not so strict, but there are definitely signs of this.

So he had to do something.

The next day, the team resumed training, and Wan Sheng gathered everyone, not only the players, but also coaches such as Diamares, Jim, and the team doctor, restaurant supervisor, and bus driver, all of whom made up the whole Derby County club.

Everyone formed a big circle on the training ground, and Wan Sheng stood in the middle.

He wants to lead the team to beat Manchester United and win the FA Cup, but if you want to win the championship, you don't just have to come up with tactics, you also need the team to work together, there is an old saying 'one minute on stage, ten years off the stage', and the same is true for football games, the victory of a game seems to be a performance on the spot, but in fact, it is inseparable from daily training, overall effort and the environment in which everyone is united.

So before training, he has to unify everyone's minds and not let them dwell on the previous titles, but look forward and prepare for the next FA Cup final.

Wan Sheng stood there, scanning everyone.

He didn't do anything. Just looked at everyone, but many people bowed their heads under his gaze, and then Wan Sheng said. "So far this season we have had a good result, we still have three league games to play, but we have won the league and I'm sure every one of you will think that this season is great because we did a miracle and no one looked at us in the summer. But we won the championship! Not only that, but we also reached the final of the FA Cup. We have qualified for next season's European competition."

Hearing Wan Sheng say this, many people laughed happily, they thought that Wan Sheng was going to praise everyone, but they didn't expect Wan Sheng's words to suddenly take a turn.

"But!"

"We still have one of the most important games to play. Sue sù me, what is it? Wan Sheng looked at everyone after speaking.

Under his eyes, many people did not dare to speak, and after a while, a voice finally said, "Boss, yes, it's a game with Manchester United!" ”

"Leiter, good!"

Wan Sheng nodded and continued. 'Every one of you should know how important this game is, the FA Cup final! It is the oldest tournament in world football and the pride of English football. I'm sure no English club would turn down the FA Cup, they wouldn't want to win it, and we're one of them, so do you want to win the Cup? ”

Hearing Wan Sheng's question so direct. Quite a few people raised their heads.

They didn't say anything, but their eyes seemed to be saying. "Of course, who doesn't want to win the championship!"

Wan Sheng looked at them and said, "Each of you wants to win the championship, the FA Cup, which is a hundred, a thousand times better than our league championship!" It is also worth a hundred, a thousand times! We've come this far, we're in the final, there's only one game left, and if we win this one, we'll win the title, so to speak, and we're so close to the title now! ”

"90 minutes can decide a qiē, but we are winning in 90 minutes, it is difficult, very difficult, but as long as we are prepared, we have a chance!"

"But look at what you look like now! Almost every time I hear someone talking about a league championship, someone talking about a game before so-and-so player! I'm here to tell you, that's all in the past, the league title is in the past, promotion is in the past, going to the Premier League next season? That's the future! It's four months later, and it's too early! ”

'We're facing the FA Cup final now! Match against Manchester United! Do you understand? ”

'Yesterday I heard a lot of media say that we are going to beat Manchester United unless God forbid, and I've heard those things many times before, like when we played Tottenham Hotspur, when we played Everton, or at the beginning of the season, when I said we were going to win the league and the people said, 'Unless God forbid, it's absolutely impossible', but now? We did it all! ”

"Now that they've said it again, then we'll let God bless us one more time!"

"Manchester United!? I admit that they are strong, but they are by no means invincible, and I am confident that I will lead everyone to defeat them and complete this 'miracle' in the mouth of the media, do you have confidence? Those who don't have confidence and are satisfied just thinking about winning the league title, can stand up now, I won't punish you, I can even give you an early holiday because you are here to drag down my team, I want you to leave early"

Of course, no one came forward, although Wan Sheng said it soundly, but it was an absolute fool to stand up.

Then Wan Sheng nodded with satisfaction, "Very good, no one stands up, it means that everyone hopes to create a miracle with me, so do you have confidence?" ”

"I'm asking, do you have faith? Say hello to me! ”

"Yes," replied sparsely.

Wan Sheng roared angrily, "Have confidence? ”

"Yes!" This time it was a lot louder.

Wan Sheng was still not satisfied, and continued to yell, "Again, we have to work together to beat Manchester United and compete for the FA Cup, are you confident?" ”

"There is !!"

This time, everyone shouted, and the intensity of this voice made Wan Sheng satisfied. He knew that just saying that would have an effect, but it wasn't all that obvious, but it was enough, and he just sent a message to everyone that the season wasn't over yet, that the team had to prepare for the FA Cup final, and that they were going to try to beat Manchester United and win the FA Cup.

This signal is released. The players will naturally work hard for it.

It's not that everyone in the team is really confident, Wansheng believes in the players' trust in themselves, and they may not have much confidence. But when they see that they are confident, they will be confident, and the reason why Wansheng will be so sure is because in the football training master system, the reverence value of each player in the players' union, with winning this league championship, many players have increased their reverence value for themselves a lot. The higher ones have already exceeded 100, and the lower ones have about 80. This reverence value almost means that all players have great trust in themselves, so if they tell the team that they have a chance to win, everyone naturally believes that the team has a chance.

For his prestige in the team, Wan Sheng is still quite satisfied.

After the end of the 'collective mobilization meeting'. Wan Sheng let the team train normally, and at ten o'clock in the morning, after the individual recovery training, Wan Sheng let the team have some small-scale confrontations, he asked the substitute team to defend with all his strength, and let the main team go all out to attack.

The gap between the team's main players and the substitutes is almost the same as the gap between Manchester United and Derby County.

Perhaps it will be difficult for the bigger Derby County main players to play on the bench at Manchester United, but this is just a drill, and there is no need to delve into it, Wan Sheng wants to find some inspiration in the confrontation drill. He needs to perfect his team's defensive tactics

On the training ground, the substitutes played very hard, they were not strong in the first place. They were also asked to be on the defensive side, although they knew a lot about the team's offensive tactics and the players on the main side, but the difference in strength was the difference in strength, and it was not easy for them to defend the goal.

The most striking point is the gap in the personal abilities of both sides.

For example, players such as Ribery and Morris can easily rely on their individual ability to break through the defense of the substitute team in attack. After that, even if there are players to make up for the defense, it is still easy to create gaps to complete the dangerous pass.

Relatively speaking. It is difficult for the main team to cooperate, after all, the eleven members of the substitute team all stay in the backfield to defend, and the number of defenders is too dense, and it is easy to make mistakes by passing.

Seeing this, Wansheng also knew where the focus was.

Just like the comparison between Manchester United and Derby County, Manchester United's overall strength is indeed very strong, but as long as the team's formation is stable, they rely on cooperation as a whole, and it is not easy to penetrate the team's defense, and the important thing is to limit the individual ability of their stars.

For example, players such as Cristiano Ronaldo, Ryan Giggs, Van Nisney and even Paul Scholes, if these players rely on their individual ability to force the breakthrough, or rely on the tacit cooperation of two or three people to find opportunities, it is difficult for the team to limit, which is the biggest threat.

How can we improve our defensive tactics in response to this?

Wan Sheng meditated.

What was the initial defense of the defense? What has it become so far? A series of defensive tactics kept tumbling in his head, and suddenly Wan Sheng remembered the original defensive tactics of football.

That's zone defense.

Zone defense is a relatively passive and conservative defensive tactic, in which each player is responsible for the defense of a specific area, so it is relatively limited and passive. The main problem with this defensive tactic is that within the defined range, the players mainly use a positional defensive approach rather than pressing the marker. This makes it easier for the attacking side to pass and receive the ball, and with more than two attacking players in the same area, it can feel quite difficult to defend.

Most English teams now use man-to-man defensive tactics, and the same is true for Derby County, as long as they keep an eye on the opposing attacking players and do not miss them, it will be difficult for the opponents to find opportunities.

This is also the reason why there is a big gap in the individual ability of the players, and there will be problems.

Manchester United's stars are a bit more capable individually, and even if they don't miss the defensive mark, they are still likely to find one-on-one opportunities, and that's the problem, so it's still difficult to defend the back of the net just by relying on the team's current defense, even if it's a dense defensive setup at the back.

Wan Sheng suddenly thought of the team's advantage.

The team is not all disadvantages, there are still areas that are better than Manchester United, such as fitness, with the help of the tasks of the football training master system, coupled with the team's defensive strategy of using full-court pressing, the players' physical fitness is still very good, and the team still has almost a month to prepare, which is definitely better than Manchester United, who are now rushing to compete with Arsenal for the league title.

The whole team is also very comfortable with the whole field of running, what if you put that kind of movement on the zone defense?

The range of zone defense can be expanded, coupled with the pressing of players, as long as it can be expanded to a certain range, then no matter which Manchester United player takes the ball in which position in the front court, it is easy to fall into the siege of at least two players, and the zone defense will not miss the position, and it becomes very difficult for Manchester United's overall attack to find gaps.

This limits the performance of United's stars, and the other makes it difficult for them to find space.

However, there are still a lot of difficulties, the focus is on the player's running and standing, even if it is a grab, it can't all be on, in that case, the opponent will be easy to find a vacancy, this aspect wants to adapt, it is estimated that it will take a lot of training, but Wansheng think about it carefully, this defensive tactic is still feasible, of course, the speed of the team's physical consumption, it will definitely become faster, but the physical strength to make up for the gap, this is a matter of course, it is impossible to come up with a tactic, it directly makes up for the gap between the two teams, that is completely unrealistic.

Wan Sheng still has some confidence in this, the source of his confidence is coaching skills, 'resolute interception' coupled with 'strong barriers', will make the team's defense and steal ability have been improved a lot, as long as the team can adapt to the new defensive tactics, it will definitely be able to do a good job in defense.

Think about this defensive tactic...... Wan Sheng seems to have known what coaching skills he should upgrade. (To be continued) R752
