Section 369 The fastest wing
"Your idea is great, but it's hard to do it, right?" Ridley King was also taken aback by Li Bin's ambitions. He didn't expect that Li Bin would have such a big mind and want to complete a task that Ferguson had not completed.
However, this is the kind of attitude that a top coach should have. Ridley King has met with some coaches in the past, and he's seen some of the team's details overhauled, but he's still a little vague about what a top-tier coach looks like. He thought that even if the top coach came, he would not look special, but now Li Bin made him realize what is called the domineering of the top coach.
The so-called domineering does not mean shouting indiscriminately, or how big their goals are, but they are the ones who put a big goal very simply, as if these big things are just things that can be done simply, and the policy of doing things is said without panic, and this kind of practice is called domineering.
Ferguson took over Manchester United and unceremoniously shouted that he wanted Manchester United to surpass Liverpool. And David Moyes took over Everton, saying that Everton are worried about relegation - there is such a big gap in terms of ambition, and it is obvious what the future achievements will be. A coach who is seeking relegation, it is too difficult to expect him to win the championship.
And now, Ridley King feels a strong motivation to work hard. He really wanted to know if his team could have that day.
"If you just want to achieve a simple ground fit, it's not that hard. It took only three weeks for Arsenal to go from Arsene Wenger taking over a 1-0 team to achieving flashy football, and even if I don't play with Wenger, it's possible to have a summer where our team can achieve basic ground integration. Technique coordination is not as difficult as you think, especially under the premise of our large number of reinforcements, it is extremely simple. However, it is much more difficult to achieve what I said. These ideas may seem simple, but they are not easy to achieve, and I think we will need some time. But don't worry, until then, I have my way to transition. ”
Li Bin knew that he had never really coached a Premier League football team before, and it was impossible for him to make the team successful overnight. Some small problems of the team have to emerge slowly, and Li Bin has to watch these problems come out little by little before he can change them, which takes time.
After ending the conversation with Ridley King, Li Bin also approached Lennon and Bale to discuss with them how to play next season.
"Next season, our main style of play will still be to play with two strikers in the middle. But your task is also very heavy. You're on the wing, so you have less to do, but when you need to fight back, you have to kick me out. Speed is our strength and we have to take advantage of it. ”
One of the most important characteristics of a Premier League team is the speed of attack and defense, and the pace of the two sides is completely incomparable to that of Serie A teams. However, this is also the flaw that Li Bin most wants to use as an attack point: take advantage of the time difference in the transition between attack and defense, and use wing kicks to quickly counterattack. And if you encounter an opponent who can't defend it, and then use the vertical transposition in the middle to break the opponent's defense, which is Li Bin's main attack method in his first season.
Li Binzhi said that his team is unlikely to have a huge advantage against all teams in the first season, and that kind of expectation is too unrealistic. In my memory, as soon as I took over the team, I immediately realized that anyone has an advantage, only a team of Barcelona or Real Madrid, but that has to be their run-in for many years, such as the 08-09 season, Barcelona is quite strong in memory, but after all, they have 80% possession in the 07-08 season against Manchester United, and now Tottenham, these conditions are not available, therefore, Li Bin knows that his team does not necessarily have an advantage in the face of anyone, It is impossible to put all his hopes on attacking the fortification, and he still needs to rely on counterattacks to complete some attacks.
Faced with the problem of how to tackle the fortifications, it is difficult for these two people on the side to contribute, but they can play a great role in counterattacking.
Moreover, if it comes to counterattacking with speed, Li Bin's current subordinates are very suitable. Bale, Lennon, Di Maria, these players are all extremely fast players, and any of them can launch quick attacks. As long as the tactical setting is appropriate, the players can pass the ball out of the box at the first time, and it is not difficult to defeat the opponent by relying on quick counterattacks. Li Bin's idea is to give the ball to Kolarov in the first time, and then let Kolarov make a long pass to the side, so that the side players can quickly run behind the enemy and attack, the whole process, basically within 10 seconds to complete an attack, these two people, absolutely the fastest wing in the Premier League.
In fact, this style of play does not have much technical content, relying on the speed of the players and running wildly. But at the end of the day, all counterattacks are pushed from the back to the front, and there is a simple way, so it's good to use it. As Tottenham gets stronger, there will only be fewer and fewer people being pressed and kicked, and there will be fewer and fewer raids like this in the future.
After all, counterattacking can't be regarded as the highest pursuit - in fact, in Li Bin's memory, if the counterattack is the most smelly, it is none other than Guardiola, his team almost does not know how to use the time difference, and always passes back when grabbing the ball - however, there are enough technical advantages to be able to press the opponent to play, even if it is a waste of opportunity, what is the big deal? It is an immutable truth that it is better to beat someone than to be beaten.
"Di Maria, I don't doubt he can do that. But can we, really? ”
It was Lennon who spoke, and he was still very worried about it, and Bell didn't speak, but looking at his appearance, he knew that he was just as worried.
Li Bin spent 100 million yuan in one breath this season, and the original main force was also sold a lot, although these two people were defined by Li Bin as the ones who stayed early on, but they also had a lot of worries about their future.
This made Li Bin sigh a little when he looked at them - what they lack now is not ability, but confidence.
Lennon is a player who is very characteristic as a winger. His skills are very good, he rarely concedes the ball, he is fierce with the ball, and his speed is no less than that of Bale, which makes people think he is a good player at first glance - but his height is only 165cm, compared to Messi, they are all tall. If the figure is too poor, there is no way to increase the strength, Bell's 183cm figure is much better than him, and his figure determines that his strength is very limited. Moreover, his style of play is very British, and his right-footed desperate crosses are the characteristics of his skills, although he can also cut into the penalty area with his right foot on the right side, but the shooting skills are hopelessly bad, which is also a big problem.
However, this is not the most important, the most important thing is his off-ball running, which can be said to be so bad that it is beyond measure, and his running is the kind of running position that makes people not want to give him the ball at a glance, which is quite a negative textbook value.
"You can make a big difference with a good off-ball movement, speed players always like to push their speed to the limit to get past the opposing players, but it can also be difficult to deal with the next step, unless you have a very strong body control and technique, you have to think about how you are going to play. Generally speaking, if a wide player wants to enhance his breakthrough ability, he or she can rely on his own choice of route, or rely on his own body to be strong, if you don't have the latter, you must enhance your running position, and with a good running position, you can receive the ball better and play a greater role. At the same time, if you change the breakthrough line, you can also reduce some brute force, which is also good for your own injuries. ”
'Fewer injuries and then change your off-ball movement and your problem is that the shots are too bad, change them better and you can be a top player. Walket is an Arsenal player, his strength is not necessarily better than you, if you play better, you dare not say that you are taller, compared with Walcott, the strength is definitely stronger. Of course, Walcott has potential, but the potential is the strength, and if it can't be discovered, it is nothing. ”
He still has quality in the future: Speaking of which, a right-footed cross from the right flank, isn't Manchester United's Valencia playing the same way? In Moyes's hands, he is the Four Heavenly Kings of Darkness, and he can be used well in Ferguson's hands. The key to a player with a single skill is how the coach uses it.
And after talking about Lennon, it was time for Bell, Li Bin thought for a moment before he spoke, "This principle also applies to you." You have a lot of potential, but you have to do it slowly, little by little. You can't play full-back well, it's because you have too strong offensive awareness, I now allow you to play your attacking power and let you attack in the front, but can't you just forget about defense? You and Di Maria are still in a competitive relationship, and if you are not as good as him now, you will have to be substituted first. But don't worry, your future will be very good, in my plan, you are going to be our Cristiano Ronaldo-like figure, you must know this. ”
As an 89-year-old player, Bale is not yet 20 years old, and his strength has nothing to do with the future. However, Li Bin is also more optimistic about him: in Tottenham, Lennon, Hoddlestone, Ridley King These teams have their own training problems, and he is the only player who is more strict with himself, and on this basis, Li Bin believes that his training value is still there. In his memory, he became a talent under Lao Lei, but Li Bin didn't think that Bell was the strongest state he could achieve, and now that it was in Li Bin's hands, Li Bin also had to think about training him to be stronger.
In the first season, they fought back. What they need is for them to exercise their backfoot, strengthen their bodies, and get the team to stabilize, they can appropriately increase long-range shots, change sides, and cooperate with the wings, and at that time, they will be stronger.
The road has to be taken step by step, and now Li Bin is not in a hurry.
Bell didn't expect that Li Bin had placed so much hope on him, and when he heard this, he also opened his mouth wide and couldn't speak.
"Why, think it's impossible?"
"Head, I didn't play very well last season."
Last season, as long as he played for Tottenham, Tottenham did not win a game, which made Bale feel very worried about his own strength, and now Li Bin suddenly said his hope for the future, he also felt a little incredible.
"Isn't it just that the team didn't win? It's not a big deal, it's all gone. You know I'm from China, I'm an atheist, I never believe in anything supernatural, I don't believe in curses or anything like that, you can't win if you play, I want to try. The European Championship is over, and it's time for our game to begin. When that time comes, I'll see what curses can be cast under my hands! ”
