Looking at the number of players on the deputy team, Wan Sheng felt a little headache.

The Hong Kong team has only called up a total of 18 players, and one player has been injured, that is to say, leading the current team, even the 18-man squad that has played is not complete, so the top priority is to make up a few more players, and finally make up enough to report to the AFC's 23-man squad.

In addition, too few people are also detrimental to preparation training.

In normal preparation, it is necessary to play some training matches, and the two sides are 11 against 11, so the effect of the training match can be closer to the regular game, so it is imperative to get the number of people.

However, Wan Sheng can't do it himself, because he doesn't know anything about what good players are in Hong Kong, and he needs to find someone who is familiar with Hong Kong football to do these things.

So Wan Sheng immediately called Liao Junhui, the assistant coach arranged by the Hong Kong Football Association, and told him his requirements to let the team find a few players, "I want young players, preferably under 24 years old, who can play in official games." ”

This requirement is not high, Liao Junhui on the other end of the phone is a little unclear So, he didn't understand what Wan Sheng wanted such a young man with weak strength to do, but he still agreed immediately, "I'll find it right away." ”

Wan Sheng put down the phone and breathed a sigh of relief.

He knew Liao Junhui.

Born in the Yu Yuen Youth Army, Liu has played for a number of Group A teams such as Ju Teng, Ka Shan, Sea Bee, Oriental, Chivalry, Seiko, Mei Ching, Lai Sun and Sing Tao, and has also represented Hong Kong in the North and South, the goalkeeper of the Hong Kong team who won the World Cup qualifying group in 1985, and was named the Best Eleven of Hong Kong Football Stars in 1981.

After hanging up his boots in 1992, he focused on youth training after retiring, and taught Hong Kong 09, Yau Tsim Wang, football team Seedlings and Green Base Top, and then joined the Citizens of Group A as a goalkeeper trainer.

Last year, Liao Junhui was promoted to coach.

This time, the Hong Kong Football Association temporarily formed a Hong Kong team to compete in the Asian Cup, and invited Liao Junhui to serve as an assistant coach. The opportunity was rare, and Liao Junhui quickly agreed.

Recently, Liao Junhui has been in Singapore, Malaysia and other countries to arrange for the Hong Kong team to participate in the Asian Cup, such as the hotel where the team stays, the temporary training ground, etc., and in recent days, he is also preparing to return to Hong Kong to lead the team to train with Wan Sheng. I didn't expect Wansheng to also recruit new players so quickly.

This was not a problem for Liao, who was familiar with Hong Kong football, and he quickly called various Hong Kong football clubs.

The clubs heard that the Hong Kong team was going to recruit new players, and it was training under Wansheng, this kind of opportunity is very difficult, if Wansheng fancy not to mention landing in Europe or something, the fame can also increase greatly, even if it is not favored by Wansheng, it can also be gilded in the Asian Cup, which are all players under their hands. It's good for the players to be famous, not to mention, with Wansheng, who is 'good at cultivating young people', they can also improve their strength a little.

They scramble to refer their players to the mix.

While Liao Junhui was doing these jobs, Wansheng was thinking about team-related issues in his office.

The first is the strength of the team.

Too bad! It's really bad!

No wonder the Hong Kong, China team has been underperforming, the ability of the players in the team is generally low, which is definitely the worst team he has led, not one of them. Even Derby County in League One was much better than this Hong Kong, China team.

This can be seen in the general ability attributes of the players in the team.

Most of the players have a rating of around 70. This data is almost an amateur player if it is a little lower, this is still the result of a combination of high physical attribute data, if you just talk about technical ability, you don't need to look at it anymore, it is completely the lowest professional league in Europe, and even the level of an amateur team.

Such a team......

Wan Sheng smiled bitterly.

Even with the coaching skills of the Soccer Trainer and the attribute bonuses of the players' union. The team will also catch up with the level of the third division of England, and this strength can only be regarded as the second rate in Asia, roughly estimated, it is equivalent to Qatar and the like, and South Korea, Japan, Australia and other strong teams can not be compared at all.

I want to lead such a team to win the championship. There is no doubt that some fools are dreaming...... Even if he still has coaching skills with various game bonuses, Wan Sheng is not very sure.

However, it's a challenge!

After checking the attribute data of the players in the team, Wansheng is looking forward to leading the team even more.

What's the point of leading a strong team to win the Asian Cup? Now he is going to lead the Hong Kong team and work towards the ultimate goal, which is a test of his coaching ability.

Football Trainer System, coupled with his own ability, he will do his best to get the best results for the team and do his best to do his best!

After strengthening his belief, Wansheng devoted himself to his work seriously.

If the average coach has just coached a team, he must ask the team to do training matches, or carefully watch the team's normal training, so as to know more about the team and have corresponding tactical ideas.

Wansheng doesn't have to do that.

Through the Football Training Master system, he has understood the situation of each player in the team, and knows the general situation of the team, and he also has a certain plan in terms of tactical ideas.

It is almost impossible to make this Hong Kong team adapt to the "OS-F" system and tactics, not to mention that the training time is not enough, and the players' abilities are not up to standard at all.

The Hong Kong team lacked strength to play the role of complex tactics.

So what are the tactics that suit the Hong Kong team?

Main defense!

This conclusion is very good, whether it is any team, whether it is the world's top team or the professional bottom team, there may be differences in the technical ability of the players in the two teams, but the average physical fitness will not be too bad, Hong Kong players are generally not physically able to catch up with European players, but the value of physical ability evaluation will not be too bad, they are all professional players after all.

The body is not bad, and the defense does not need too complicated tactics, so the main defense can play to the advantage.

In addition, Wansheng considered that he had two 'coach MAX perfect skills' defensive skills.

"Solid barriers, defensive class, coach Max perfect skills.

All the players are in good shape. Defensive stat rating increased by 2.

In official matches, all players' physical confrontation ability is increased by 2, and the chance of injury is reduced by 50%.

All players take the initiative to activate: the goalkeeper is the last line of defense, and under the power of the strong barrier, the team you lead, the goalkeeper's reaction speed. Increases by 100% (can only be activated once per match, lasts for 5 minutes, and passively loses its effect after activation). ”

"Resolute interception, defensive gear, coach Max's perfect skills.

When your team is in play, the steal success rate increases by 20 percent.

When your player is in play, all defensive stats are increased by 1.

When your player makes a steal, the 'Passing' stat is increased by 5. ”

The effects of the two defensive skills are stacked together, plus some defensive stance drills. Then this Hong Kong team, which has little strength, will not be much weaker in defense than the first-class teams in Asia.

There is a saying in the world of football that 'defense wins', as long as you work defense and ensure that the team concedes as few goals as possible, then there is a good chance of winning.

As for the offense?

Counterattack is the only way out.

The normal routine attack is no longer suitable for the Hong Kong team, and playing against Asia's first-class teams such as Japan and South Korea is tantamount to raising your hands and surrendering. It is very unrealistic, while defending well. Finding opportunities with quick counter-attacks is the best way to play for a team.

Wan Sheng set the tone for the team's tactics, and he also thought about the main training work during the preparation period.

In terms of tactics, defensive formations and defensive positioning are a must, and he decided to adapt his team to Italy's chain defence.

Wan Sheng has not had the experience of adapting the team to chain defense, but the chain defense of Italy has long been thoroughly studied. The idea of this defensive system is to make it nearly impossible for the opponent to break through every defender head-on.

In the game, there will be space between the players and the players, which is the space for the opponent to pass and receive the ball, so the linkage should be used when defending, if the player is the point. Then this gap is like a line, when the point is under pressure, the line will naturally converge to the place where the pressure is coming from.

If there is only one chain, it is easy to be broken, Italy generally builds a line in the avant-garde line, and then adds the guard line to form two chains, so that there is depth protection.

The guard line will form a chain, the guard line will form a chain, the gap in the guard chain just has the defender to make up the point, when defending, the guard line players wrap the opponent, and the guard sees the opportunity to kick, which is the most basic form of defense.

The main points of defense seem very simple, but in fact, the chain defense has very high requirements for the defensive formation, as long as the formation is messy, the chain defense no longer exists, and even if the formation is always maintained well, it does not rule out the possibility that the opponent's star can break through head-on, so the supreme state of chain defense also has a strong defensive ability of the guard to defend the opponent's core players between the two chains.

In this way, the system of chain defense is completed.

Therefore, if you want to adapt to chain defense, the training of defensive positions is a must, during the preparation period, Wansheng intends to let all players adapt to the running of the formation, so that the players can really adapt to the position in the game, this alone is not easy, after all, the tactical awareness of the players in the team is extremely poor, you can know that many of them only care about their own running in the game, and it takes time to complete the concept of "team" if you want to make them adapt to the concept of "team".

Fortunately, with the help of 'collaboration' skills, the half-month training is enough to train something just to train the defensive position and running.

Of course, defense alone can't win, just chain defense, has consumed most of the players, and there are only two or three players who can really put into the attack, so a quick counterattack is also a must, and Wansheng in this regard will consider winning with speed.

Take advantage of the team's midfield connection and make quick two-to-three passes to find opportunities.

That's the main offensive play.

――――

In Mong Kok Stadium, the first day of the Hong Kong team's preparation, one morning and half an afternoon, was spent in normal training.

The players in the team were surprised.

They thought that the training situation should be watched by the head coach, but for most of the first day, they didn't see the head coach at all, this somewhat serious young coach, after giving the team a lecture in the morning, stayed in the head coach's office, never came out, even lunch was sent by the staff.

What is this guy doing in there?

Doesn't he come to the training ground to coach the team?

Many of the players didn't know why, and in the afternoon, they were whispering to each other about it.

Halfway through the afternoon, Fan Zhiyi, as an assistant coach, notified everyone to go to the head coach's office. Don't have to continue training?

They feel a little weird.

The players walked into the spacious office, and saw the young coach writing and drawing on the tactical board, looking serious, there were people in the office, and he didn't turn his head, and when everyone arrived, he still maintained that action, drawing a stroke on the tactical board with a pen from time to time, and I didn't know what he was thinking about.

Fan Zhiyi walked over and reminded, "Wansheng, everyone has arrived." ”

Wan Sheng then turned his head to look at everyone.

"It's all here." He said, stood up and stretched, pointed to the tactics board and went straight to the point, "In the next time, I will start to explain the tactics that the team needs to focus on training, and each of you must listen carefully and remember that this is very important, and it will be directly related to your performance in training or games. ”

No one spoke, but many people didn't think so.

In the past, when they were in the club, the coach would occasionally explain the tactics, but only to explain, and few people listened to them at all, because when it came to tactical training, the coach would still repeat it again and again, and guide them how to do it in the game, so that after repeated repeatedly, even if they didn't understand the tactics at all, they also knew how to play on the field.

However, Wan Sheng is obviously not their manager at the club, and he does not have so much patience to explain them one by one.

"The tactic is very simple, I'll only talk about it once, you can choose to memorize it carefully, or you can choose not to listen to it." Just when everyone was confused, Wan Sheng said seriously, "But I want to tell you all, one thing. ”

He stretched out a finger, "I have seen you, until now, I have not asked you to make an introduction, I don't know the name of any person, I don't know you at all, so from now until the official match of the Asian Cup, whoever performs better in training will be able to start." ”

"On the other hand, if someone doesn't perform well, doesn't know how to stand in training, and has to keep repeating the tactics himself, then I think he's definitely not as good as everyone else."

"Do you all understand?" (To be continued.) )
