Many people's first impression of Hiddink is that he is tough.

But it's rare to see Hius on the pitch in the open.

Few people know that Hiddink was a teacher for ten years at the school where his father was the headmaster, so much so that he later joked that in his eyes, football stars were like schoolchildren, and big-name football stars were like those naughty children with tough backgrounds, or even juvenile delinquents.

Ten years of coaching experience has given Hiddink how to manage a team's dressing room, and it has also given him a bit of his own stubbornness, as if he rarely goes public on the pitch, that is for the sake of image, he believes that the pitch is full of cameras, and public rage will only become the object of media hype.

But sometimes, the fire in my heart can't be suppressed.

Just like this time, when he saw Ibrahimovic leaning on Fabel with his body, Oye did not rush to Fabel's side for the first time to assist in the defense as he had arranged before the game, and after watching the Swede suppress Fabel with his body, he successfully dribbled and turned, and volleyed with his right foot vigorously, piercing Watrus's goal.

At this moment, Oye helplessly raised his hands in the penalty area, hugged the back of his head, and looked very depressed, looking as if he was wondering, why would he be scored again?

I believe that most people who see this scene will think that Oye is innocent, but Hiddink will not think so.

Hiddink, who was so angry that he had to find an outlet to vent, rushed to the sidelines, shouted at Oye, who was close at hand: "Andre, what the fuck are you eating?" Don't you know that the road needs to be defended? Or do you just want to stand on the sidelines, waiting to see your teammates, watch the team's jokes? ”

Oye was taken aback by Hiddink's sudden angry outburst, and the whole person stood in the penalty area, only to recall one thing that Hiddink kept repeating before the game and at halftime, that Ibrahimovic could not easily get one-on-one opportunities, especially in the middle of the penalty area.

Ibrahimovic is a player with excellent physicality, delicate work at his feet, and his shooting skills have improved a lot over the years, which makes the Swedish center forward look like there are no big flaws, and both his physicality and his footwork make him very advantageous in one-on-one situations.

Hiddink has a very high opinion of the centre-forward, and he believes that in one-on-one situations, even central defenders such as Nesta, Stam and Ferdinand may not be able to resist Ibrahimovic.

Recently, Eindhoven's defensive line has been a lot of problems, Hovland's injury will make him miss the whole season, which has brought a lot of trouble to Eindhoven's defense, you know, Hovland has been very eye-catching recently, he has become the anchor of Eindhoven's backline, and even Manchester United and many other giants have begun to pay attention to him, hoping to bring in the central defender who is known as the new Stam.

Hiddink is also excellent, Faber is solid under his hands, the veteran has excellent experience and awareness, but even so, Hiddink still feels that Faber has to be abused when he meets Ibrahimovic.

It's not a matter of strength, but in the final analysis, when the defender is one-on-one with the attacker, the offensive player takes the initiative, and the defender is too passive, and if it is not for the difference in strength, it is almost difficult to guarantee that he will not be abused.

This is for everyone to know, offense can rely on individual play, but defense always has to rely on the system to fight.

This can also lead to a digression, conditioning defense is not necessarily easier than training offense!

PSV Eindhoven were short of centre-backs after Hovland's injury this season, and Guus Hiddink eventually opted to pull right-back Oyer into the middle to play at centre-back, and Oyer did perform well in a couple of games to reassure everyone, but once it came to the crucial games, his problems were exposed.

In the end, he has played right-back for many years, pulled to the middle, it is inevitable that there will be some discomfort, the sense of position and the sense of defense are Oye's defects, in the past, others made up for him, gave him to fill the position, but now he wants to make up for the shortcomings of others, and it is certain that he is not adaptable.

PSV Eindhoven's sluggish performance in the Champions League this season is not entirely unrelated to the problems at the back, so Hiddink has always been cautious, because he knows that problems with the defence will arise in the strong dialogue, they have lost to Feyenoord before, and this time against Ajax, Hiddink can be said to be a thousand bells.

But I didn't expect to make a mistake in the end.

Sometimes, Hiddink doesn't know whether to say that Ajax's attack was too strong, or PSV Eindhoven's defense was too bad in this game, or both.

Just 14 minutes into the game, Robben made a quick cut down the left flank and Ibrahimovic crossed diagonally, sprinting into the box and slotting home a comfortable shot past Watrus.

But that was just the beginning, as Ajax's powerful attacks on the heels put PSV Eindhoven under immense pressure.

In the 27th minute, after Van der Vaart cut inside with the ball on the right side, he took the initiative to find Ibrahimovic to cooperate with two and one, sprinted into the penalty area in the air, and after getting Ibrahimovic's knockback, he shot low and scored again, 2:0!

The attack was fierce, Ajax also showed flaws, in the last moment of the first half, Eindhoven played a very high-quality counterattack, Van Bommel made a long pass, Kezman used his speed to force away Lucio and Kifu's backline, and after winning the ball, he formed a single knife and broke through Van der Sar's goal, 1:2.

At half-time, Guus Hiddink once again stressed that it didn't matter if he was one goal behind, because there was still a second half and PSV Eindhoven had every chance, but only if all the players were firmly in line with the team's tactics.

Among them, Hiddink said the most about defense, because Eindhoven's strategy in this game is to defend and counterattack, if you can't keep it, how to counterattack?

Therefore, for Oye, Hiddink also told him many times, and he showed several flaws in the first half, so he asked Oye to pay attention to maintaining the distance between him and Fabel, maintain close contact, do not show flaws, and do not easily lose his position.

What I didn't expect was that less than 10 minutes into the second half, Oye made a mistake.

If Oye can help defend on the sidelines when Ibrahimovic and Faber fight, then after the Swedes turn around, Oye can rush to help defend as soon as possible, so can the Swedes still be able to score?

From 1:2 to 1:3, the gap is not just one goal, which is a huge blow to PSV Eindhoven's morale.

However, Hiddink only got angry when he couldn't hold it down, and quickly calmed down, after all, the game was not over yet, so he kept explaining to Oye on the sidelines, and at the same time asked the team's position to be appropriately retracted.

Ye Qiu sat in the home team's coach's box, looking at Hiddink's rare gaffe, and couldn't help but feel funny, "I didn't expect him to be quite powerful when he started the fire, but I really don't see it at ordinary times." ”

Bobby? Hams Haluha smiled, "It's dozens of years old, where can you still be angry at every turn like you young people?" ”

If you run into someone who is healthy, it's fine, but if you run into someone who is not in good health and gets angry at every turn, isn't that your own life?

"He has been away from the European football scene for a few years, especially in the past two years to Asia, and it is obvious that he has not been able to keep up with the pace and rhythm of the development of European football." Van Basten said with a smile on the side.

This is true, even in the current situation of very developed information, leaving European football for a long time, leaving the Champions League, and grasping the trend of football tactical development, it is indeed a great loss.

Look at the England team that year was banned, and they haven't caught up with the mainland team until now.

Since Hiddink took charge of the Dutch national team, whether it is in Real Madrid or Real Betis, he has not been able to win the recognition and recognition of professionals, and has not been able to achieve convincing results, and even now, most people feel that Hiddink's football philosophy has not kept up with the development of tactics.

What has been the hottest tactical change in Europe in the last two years?

Defend in the high post!

As commented by the French football magazine, after Ajax won the League Cup with a high defense and successfully reached the Champions League semi-finals the following year, everyone began to be interested in high defense, and the first to follow Ye Qiu's pace was Valencia's coach Benitez, whose team also adopted a high defense.

Although Benitez's Valencia played 4231, the positioning tactics adopted by the two midfielders were still moving forward in the defensive line.

Valencia won La Liga last season and have set off a wave in the Champions League this season, all of which is behind the high defence, and Benitez's team is best at pressing their opponents with high defence, so they have scored the most goals and conceded the fewest goals, and are the best team in the Champions League group stage.

In the evaluation of French football magazines, Ajax's high defense is more inclined to attack, and the defense is very dependent on a single back, so Gilberto? After Silva left the team, although Ye Qiu introduced Mascherano with good performance and promoted De Jong, he still couldn't play Gilberto? Silva's steady.

This is also the reason why Ajax's defence has been inconsistent so far this season.

The impact of the brilliant high-level defense is that other teams have also made corresponding adjustments and changes, but Hiddink's team obviously has no such changes, which makes them lose in the Champions League, and back in the Netherlands, it is okay to meet weak teams, but the results are also very bad when playing strong teams.

So far, they have lost at home to Feyenoord and now they are away to Ajax, and they have also not been able to fight back.

As for the other so-called strong teams in the Eredivisie, can they compete with the three giants?

In the eyes of many people, high defense is what Ye Qiu has made up in order to solve Ajax's traditional 433 tactics, the distance between wingers and fullbacks is too long, and after three years of continuous improvement, this defensive system has become Ajax's main tactics, and even the youth team is using this set of tactics.

The benefits are obvious, the attack is very sharp, especially the attack on the two wings, which is in line with the traditional characteristics of Ajax's emphasis on winger attack, and can also maximize the offensive power of 433, but the defense is something that needs attention.

"Do you think he will regret coming to Eindhoven to muddy waters?" Roland asked with a smile on the side.

When everyone heard this, they all burst into laughter.

Now in the game, there is not much suspense for Ajax to win the opponent, the only choice is, can they still score?

In the 77th minute, it was Ibrahimovic again, again from Fabel's side, and Oye was not in time to make up for it, almost the same as the previous goal, but the position of the goal changed slightly, and Ibrahimovic's way of scoring was more annoying.

He obviously got rid of Fabel, successfully passed the Eindhoven central defender, and when he entered the penalty area with the ball, he met Oyer who quickly came from the side to fill in, he suddenly made a sudden stop, skillfully crossed the ball with both feet, and flexibly wanted to bypass Oye from the right side, but when Oye reacted flexibly, he made another emergency stop, dunked the ball to the left side, and then pulled up his left foot, a volley, the ball went into the net, 4:1!

The whole goal seems to be very long, but in fact, it happened in the blink of an eye, Oye's whole person was shaken by Ibrahimovic and almost didn't stand firm, and all this is because the distance between him and Faber just now is too long, if the distance is right, as soon as Ibrahimovic passes Faber, he can be the first time to close the defense, then the Swede will suffer a big loss.

Hiddink didn't get furious this time like he had just now, but walked back to the dugout with a helpless face.

After the next city, Ye Qiu also made substitution adjustments.

In the end, Ajax beat PSV Eindhoven 4-1 at the Arena Stadium to extend the advantage of the leaders to four points, while Feyenoord lost 1-3 away to Heerenveen and have been kicked out of the title shortlist.

Van Marwijk's side still have a penchant for dropping chains at crucial moments, which is a very puzzling thing indeed.

…………

…………

With a 4-1 home win over PSV Eindhoven, Ajax are the favourites to win the Eredivisie.

It is important to know that Ajax have beaten PSV Eindhoven twice in a row this season, before the Dutch Super Cup, Ajax beat PSV Eindhoven 5-0 at the Arena Stadium, and this time it was a bit of an improvement and became 4:1.

After this game, the Dutch media almost overwhelmingly supported Ajax, believing that Ye Qiu's team has a very high chance of winning the league title as long as it continues to play in the first half of this season, while Hiddink's team must get rid of the embarrassment of losing when it is strong.

This team has no precedent for winning against strong teams this season, whether in the Champions League or the Eredivisie, which has also become a very embarrassing label for Hiddink.

On the contrary, the Eindhoven daily also helped PSV Eindhoven to explain, and when they interviewed PSV Eindhoven general manager Anesson, the latter believed that the team's poor performance was due to the backline, and Hovland's absence brought a lot of losses to PSV Eindhoven, because the most important thing for the team is to strengthen the back line as soon as possible.

And PSV Eindhoven also feels that the back line is the crux of the team's repeated defeats.

But Hiddink doesn't admit it at all, believing that there are a lot of problems in the team, and the back line is not the most important.

"I can understand the desire and thoughts of many fans who are desperate to strengthen the team in the shortest possible time, but if you want to improve the team, you don't necessarily need to transfer reinforcements, that is the last resort, I think Oye is doing well in the central defender position, he just needs more time."

A week later, PSV Eindhoven beat Vitesse 1-0 at home thanks to a goal from Bouma.

Ajax beat SBV Elite 2-0 away in their last game before the winter break, while Feyenoord continued their embarrassing tradition of dropping the chain with a 1-1 draw at Bredda.

As a result, after 17 rounds, the Eredivisie is halfway through, Ajax leads all the way and occupies the leading position, PSV Eindhoven is close behind with a gap of 4 points, and the gap between Feyenoord and the two previous rivals has been widened to 11 points, and the right to compete for the league title has been clearly lost.

The difference in strength in the Eredivisie is the fourth place, Nijmegen is 9 points behind Feyenoord and 20 points behind Ajax, which is enough for anyone to see the overall trend of the Eredivisie.

As Schulder of the Common Daily is? As Mosso said in his column, today's Eredivisie is a bit of a trend towards La Liga, where the two giants competed for supremacy, but the difference is that the La Liga of the year was a two-man battle between Barcelona and Real Madrid, while the current Eredivisie is a triumph of Ajax, PSV Eindhoven and Feyenoord.

Shurde? Mosso believes that when the football league becomes an oligarchy game, this is not necessarily a good phenomenon, and it is worth warning all Dutch football people, especially more teams and more coaches, should take a good look at the situation and think about it.

"I personally believe that the experience of Ajax's resurgence is worth learning from all the middle and lower reaches of the Eredivisie, because they did not pay too much price, and what Ye Qiu pursued was to introduce potential rookies at a low price, cultivate and sculpt them, and make them become talents, which not only brought Ajax a lot of transfer income, but also improved Ajax's overall competitiveness."

"All teams, all people, should rethink, position themselves well, find ways to improve the competitiveness of our team, avoid the league becoming an oligarchic game, and find their own ways to survive in the Eredivisie in European football and the middle and lower reaches of the Eredivisie in the Eredivisie!"
