"Super Coach" [Second Update, Asking for a Monthly Pass]

Conference Room A was quiet, everyone was staring at Yang Cheng in front of them, and his resounding words were still ringing in their ears.

Baggio, Bergomi and other experienced veterans originally thought that Yang Cheng was young, but after this training session, they all had to admit that Yang Cheng's tactical literacy was indeed very high.

There are even a lot of things that are a bit of a struggle for players of their level to figure out, and they can only figure it out better when they get to the training ground.

Paul, Bayer and others were excited to hear it, they all followed Yang Cheng for three years, in the past three years, Yang Cheng's progress in coaching ability can really be said to be fast, now he is in charge of Inter Milan, immediately combined with the current situation in Serie A, as well as Inter Milan's own shortcomings, threw out this set of tactical system, it is really rare.

This also indirectly shows that Yang Cheng is still making progress.

Paul, Bayer and other assistants couldn't help but remind themselves in their hearts that if they couldn't keep up with Yang Cheng's progress, they would be abandoned by him sooner or later, because an assistant who couldn't keep up with the pace and ideas of the head coach was destined to only become a liability.

"All of you here are professional players who have experienced many years of professional training, and I would like to ask you, when you were training in the youth team, what was the most shouted sentence by the coaches?"

Yang Cheng smiled and tried to dilute the tense atmosphere in the conference room, and then encouraged the players to speak up.

"Keep the ball moving!" As Yang Cheng's favorite general, Nedved was the first to stand up.

"My Qing, the coach always says, don't let the ball stop!" Fanny chuckled.

There was a burst of laughter in the conference room, bringing some light-hearted vibes.

"Well said, it's basically the same thing, it's to make sure the ball is always moving, right?"

There were quite a few players below who nodded in unison.

So, I want to ask again, what are the two most basic movements that your coach asks you to do the most?"

At this moment, many people were speechless, and even Nedved and Vanney and others couldn't answer.

Although they have all experienced many years of training, it is really not easy for them to find out the most fundamental things for a while.

"It's pick up and pass!" Baggio replied.

"Well said!" Yang Cheng praised with a smile, and the latter responded with a smile, and then sat down.

"Receiving and passing, this is not for the sake of smoothness, but represents two sequences, first there is receiving, and then there is passing, that is, someone must come to answer, in order to be able to pass, and how to respond?"

Without waiting for the players to answer, Yang Cheng directly turned around and wrote a king-sized word on the tactical wrench, run!!

"Football is very critical to running, both offensive and defensive, I believe everyone should be able to experience in these days of tongue practice, our training requires a lot of running, such as no more than the old meter, for example, everyone has to run on the basis of a triangle and so on."

"It's easy to understand the distance from the old meter, so why limit it to triangle runs in order to improve the passing and receiving rate?"

Yang Cheng drew several shapes on the tactical board again, and the players were all standing in triangles.

"There are only two ways to run and catch the ball, one is to block the defender behind him, and the ball is to advance the ball, which is for man-to-man defense; The other is to run directly without the ball and cut into the air behind the defender to get the ball, which is for zone defense! ”

Yang Cheng's tactics are actually easy to understand, the players have been playing football for many years, and they all nod their heads in unison, especially the attacking players.

"So, let's take a look, I'll cite the footage of the Champions League final Kaiserslautern against Manchester United!"

Yang Cheng immediately broadcast the edited footage of the Champions League final on TV, which showed several interspersed runs of Ole Gunnar Solskjaer's play, which effectively opened Kaiserslautern's defense and created a crisis.

When Scholes got the ball, Ole Gunnar Solskjaer was closest to him, and then the two of them and York's position formed a triangle! Yang Cheng paused the video, and the positions of the three players were redrawn inside, and the players could see it clearly. According to the normal understanding, Ole Gunnar Solskjaer should have to move back to deal with it, because he was the closest, but he didn't, he ran forward, this is Ole Gunnar Solskjaer's cleverness, he ran forward, there was space in the position where he was standing, York retreated from the front, if the defender didn't keep up, York could calmly take the ball and turn around, directly threaten the goal, if the defender followed, Scholes would hoist the ball directly into the penalty area and hand it to Ole Gunnar Solskjaer, who faced the goal directly! ”

It seems complicated to say, but in fact, with the analysis of the video, the players are smart enough to see it at a glance.

Even Ronaldo, Baggio and others, who are the smartest runners, can't help but look a little stunned.

"It's based on three people, but what if there's one more person? It becomes two triangles, and one more person or more people becomes more triangles, so all of our running and matching routines are based on triangles, but in fact they can be extended to each and every one of the players on the court. ”

The players were a little dumbfounded when they heard it, but they had to admire Yang Cheng's round of analysis.

Next, let's talk about the empty cut catch, which is also based on the Long player, in a triangular position!"

Yang Cheng once again used the video to match his own analysis, explaining his tactical concept to all the Inter Milan players present.

Suppose the attacking player A is facing the goal with the ball, and player B is facing away from the goal at the edge of the penalty area, and the opponent's tight defense is behind him, the distance between A and B is about old meters, and player C is standing in a triangle with players A and B.

A passed the ball to B, B took the ball with his back, but did not find a chance to turn around, at this time A ran straight forward, B retreated with the ball, and the two passed each other, forming a tacit reverse run.

At this time, the opponent has two choices, if he follows B out, then B will pass the ball to c, turn around and re-insert forward, disrupting the opponent's defensive order, c will pass straight forward to find the space pulled out after B retreats, a will cut into this space, and face the goal directly after getting the ball.

If the opponent chooses not to follow, then B can directly take the ball and turn around, facing the attacking position, while A and C can also cause chaos in the opponent's defense at the same time.

Similar to this repeated staggered reversal, cross transposition, can confuse the opponent to the greatest extent so that they can't tell who should be guarded, if the player's personal ability is strong, even 2 people on the forward line can complete this kind of cooperation, and you can imagine, these two ways of cooperation and advancement, once the achievement is a single knife!"

Yang Cheng's words immediately shocked the Inter Milan players present, because they had all played football, so they all knew very well that this kind of push and cooperation was almost a torture for the defensive players on the ever-changing football field.

There is a mental calculation or not, Inter Milan is a long-term cooperation, very tacit understanding, but the defenders are not good, they can't figure out Inter Milan's coordination routine at all, they can only defend passively, that is almost a hit and a quasi!

Any professionally trained player or coach knows very well that the test of a team's strength is the transition between attack and defense, and the test of a team's defensive quality is the speed of the defense.

And Yang Cheng's coordination and running routine is to let the players intersperse and run back and forth between each other, cross and change positions, confuse the opponent's defensive players, disrupt their original defensive rhythm and sequence, and make them unable to distinguish who is defending whom, so their co-defense will not be able to talk about it, and the defense will naturally be destroyed.

After Yang Cheng's lecture, the players in the entire conference room suddenly changed from disapproval to admiration.

Although many things are basic theories, Yang Cheng extends and expands on the foundation, adds more of his own understanding and improvements, and completely transforms these basic things into something that belongs to Yang Cheng himself.

That's it! The most fundamental core value of a manager!

Yang Cheng arrived at this moment, and he knew in his heart that he had really improved!

In fact, this kind of progress is forced, because the current Inter Milan has suffered from the ridicule and ridicule of the outside world, and Yang Cheng, the head coach, is also under great pressure, so he is always looking for ways and ways to improve his strength. ,

Now, he really has become!

Or it can be said that he has found the threshold of Cheng to lead Inter Milan to glory, and it depends on how he leads the team down!

Thinking of this, Yang Cheng couldn't help but sigh in his heart, he finally understood why many professionals said that if an excellent head coach wants to be among the top, he must go through the baptism of a giant, because this kind of transformation and progress brought about by the huge pressure in the giant team is incomparable to being in charge of an ordinary team for many years!

As long as he continues to make this progress, I believe it won't be long before he can achieve a complete transformation and become one of the best managers.

At the end of the tactical meeting, Yang Cheng packed up his manuscript and looked at the players below, he smiled slightly, looking extremely confident.

"I know that it will take a long time for us to achieve the tactical blueprint I have just outlined, and our current defense has established a framework, but it is far from enough to deal with the Serie A rivals, so we will continue to maintain the run-in team and improve the technical and tactical level of the team, and continue to practice the combination of attack and defense."

"I can even predict here first, not only in the warm-up games, but even in the first few rounds of the league, we are expected to encounter great difficulties, I hope everyone can be prepared in their hearts, the guys outside will do everything possible to laugh at us and humiliate us, but we don't have to worry too much."

"Because, as long as we know what we're doing and what we want, then why should we care what others say? Now they humiliate us, laugh at us, and even sarcastically mock us, and we will fight back with victory after victory! ”

"We're all professional footballers, and I'm sure everyone will be able to understand what I'm saying."

"Here, I reiterate once again, there is no main force and substitute in my team, no one has to play, no one has to sit on the bench, I will observe everyone in training, I will look at everyone in the game, who is in good shape, who has fighting spirit, who can execute my tactics, who I let on the contrary I will let him sit on the bench!"

After a pause, Yang Cheng swept over everyone and lingered on Ronaldo's body for a moment.

The Brazilian was indeed tragic at the hands of Yang Cheng as his main position was threatened by Ventola and Zamorano, especially Ventola, the Italian youngster who performed well in the warm-up matches and was also eye-catching with Ruud van Nistelrooy.

"Although a lot of people outside say that I can't get anything in my first season at Inter Milan, I don't think so, I will fight for every honour and fight for every one! Championships, that's my football credo, all the players who can't be on the same side as me won't stay in the team I coach! ”

"Finally, I want to tell you that the door of my office is not locked at any time, and any of you, at any time, for anything, can walk in and come to me, and I hope that if you think anything, you can tell me directly face to face, not through reporters or the media, or, behind my back!"

This last point, Yang Cheng said very seriously and resolutely, what he hates most is that there are people in the team's locker room who secretly make small moves, or form gangs.

After the current Inter Milan has undergone a major purge, the biggest gang is Ruud van Nistelrooy, Nedved and Lucio, these three players form the central axis of Inter Milan, but they are the love brought by Yang Cheng, even if it is Yang Cheng's person, Bergomi is the leader of the dressing room, and he has a good relationship with everyone, but he also tends to support Yang Cheng.

Baggio was originally shouted to leave, but now that he has turned around, he has sat on the main force, and his relationship with Yang Cheng has also improved a lot, and he will chat a few words from time to time after training to discuss some problems on the court.

Coupled with the players introduced by Yang Cheng such as Emerson, Van Bommel and Zambrotta, Yang Cheng has been able to control the dressing room and truly realize the first step of reigning Inter Milan.

And what he has to do next is to lead Inter Milan to glory in terms of results.

In the next few days, the team resumed two practices a day, of which the tongue practice class in the afternoon was mainly for defensive and offensive routines, which were still arranged by Yang Cheng before, and the triangle dribbling was carried out to cooperate with the routine. According to the ideas outlined by Yang Cheng, start with three players, wait for the three of them to cooperate with each other, and then increase the number of people who cooperate.

But the three players are not chosen randomly, for example, the midfielders must be paired with two strikers, or with the left and right central midfielders, because they are close to each other in position, and so on, all of them are grouped in a targeted manner.

After a few days of training at the Pinetina base, the team travelled to Amsterdam, the Netherlands, for the Amsterdam Cup.

The four teams participating in the invitational tournament are hosts Ajax, Inter Milan in Serie A, Deportivo La Coruna in La Liga and Arsenal in the Premier League.

The first round is Ajax vs. Arsenal and Inter Milan vs. Deportivo La Coruna, and the second round is Inter Milan vs. Arsenal and Ajax vs. Deportivo La Coruna.

In order to encourage goals, the re-run Amsterdam Cup has added additional goal points in addition to the traditional points, that is, if a game, "a draw, according to the traditional points, but since both sides have goals, the points become 2 points."

After a month-long training camp for Inter Milan, it was clear that the team had just gone through a brutal physical reserve training and the players were not excited enough, and the A2 defeat was unmistakable in the opening game against Deportivo La Coruna.

The problems exposed in this game are still in the defense, Lucio stepped forward to help the defense and Emerson's area coverage behind him, and filled the gap for Lucio, the two did not cooperate well with each other, and Inter Milan's defense still looked very chaotic.

But these are the troubles that Yang Cheng expected earlier, after all, the opponents in the previous warm-up games were not strong, and now that they have encountered the powerful Deportivo La Coruna, it is understandable that Inter Milan lost, and the key is to find the reason for the loss from the warm-up game.

Two days later, Milan welcomed Arsenal.

Arsene Wenger's side are not playing flashy football these days, but they have done well in attack and defence, especially after the introduction of Thierry Henry from Juventus this season.

But after the first game of the heavy defeat, Inter Milan in this game to adjust the defensive order very well, Nedved, Emerson and Simeone in the midfield combination was also affirmed by Yang Cheng in this game, plus a Lucio, making Inter Milan's defense solid.

But in attack it still looks disorganized, the players have a sense of cooperation, but there are still big problems, and in the end, A. Harvest a draw.

At the end of the game, Inter Milan finished at the bottom with Deportivo La Coruna and Ajax and Arsenal tied for second and third.

For the trip to Amsterdam, Yang Cheng admitted that he had a lot of gains, at least in his opinion, it is a good thing to meet strong opponents in the warm-up game, and problems can be corrected in time and better cope with the upcoming league.

But the media and some people don't see it that way, at least they saw that Yang Cheng was in charge of Inter Milan in the early days, and the warm-up results were so bad that they immediately began to spray, spray Yang Cheng, and ask the players he brought, spray Moratti, spray everyone.

Moji seems to be very active, obviously he decided to make a feud with Yang Cheng, and did not miss any opportunity to hit Yang Cheng, and frequently jumped out to attack Yang Cheng and his Inter Milan.

Moratti appeared relatively calm this time and did not give an interview to the media, but Chetti said that the club absolutely trusts Yang Cheng's coaching ability, and everything is moving in a good direction for Inter Milan.

Yang Cheng assured us that within 2 months, we can see a completely different Inter Milan!" Chetty appeared confident in Yang Cheng.

But just three days after the team left Amsterdam, the Torino sports newspaper published an explosive news!
