After the match against Napoli, Parma's second game was against Atalanta. As last season's relegation team, although Atalanta is weak, but after all, it still has a very good foundation, in the Serie B League, their strength is also one of the best, after defeating the Serie C team Napoli, Li Bin decided to play with them, but also hope, see Parma's new tactics, can play against slightly stronger opponents.

In the game against Atalanta, Parma did not have the same advantage as in the previous game - in the last game, the possession rate exceeded 70%, and it was completely pressed outside the opponent's penalty area to play, and this game, although it was still in the front, but had to retreat about ten meters. However, even without a full advantage, Parma still maintained a good scene. Compared to last season's performance, Parma had a greater advantage on the field, and in the game, their attacks began to flow smoothly.

And if in the last game, relying on the play of Rui Costa, Parma grasped the advantage of a very good situation, this game reflects the role of Parma's midfield three backs.

When playing against a weak team, an excellent forward midfielder is enough for the whole team to suppress the opponent, and when playing against an opponent who is slightly stronger and cannot achieve comprehensive suppression, the advantage of the back waist is also reflected.

Unlike the last game, the ball is basically at the feet of Parma, in this game, Atalanta's strength is slightly stronger, and Parma can compete with Parma in the midfield, but, relying on the three backs in the midfield, Atalanta simply cannot overpower the midfield, which also makes Parma's game still occupy a great initiative.

In front of Tacinadi, Melo and Toure have shown more strength.

As a Brazilian, Melo's physical fitness and technical ability are quite good, and his only trouble is that the ball quotient is too poor. In fact, when it comes to his technical characteristics, he is a bit like Inter Milan's midfielder Cambiaso. Of course, Melo is more mobile, with slightly stronger coverage and one-on-one, but Cambiaso's organizational ability is better, but, on the whole, neither of them is a person who can play a single midfielder, their strength lies in transitional passing, cooperating with teammates to intercept, playing alone, they can't, suitable for playing in a double back, or a three-back system - this is also the direction that Li Bin set for him.

Li Bin remembers that Cambiaso during the Real Madrid period played a mess and couldn't play at any level at all, after arriving at Inter Milan, Inter Milan gave him enough trust and put him on the field no matter how good or bad he played, so that he could always cultivate confidence and sharpen his skills, and finally succeeded in recovering his condition and becoming a good player.

And Melo is another situation, in memory, he played in Fiorentina in good shape, Juventus paid money to buy out his contract directly, but after arriving at Juventus, Juventus's coach Ferrara at the time regarded him as Pirlo, and because Ferrara is a Juventus celebrity, although the whole of Italy knew that this was Juventus's coach's problem, but he was embarrassed to say it, but returned the responsibility to Melo, who could not complete the organizational task, which caused Melo to be criticized, and finally went to Turkey.

What happens to a player has a lot to do with the coach. Melo met Prandelli as a super midfielder, and when he met Ferrara, he couldn't even play in Serie A, and the responsibility of the coach was very great. Coaches can't expect players to always be top-notch, and it's the coaches' task to make good use of relatively average players.

In the current Parma, Tacinadi is dragging behind, filling in the position, defending, plus some simple grooming, all doing a very good job, and Melo is in front of him, as a transition pass, also plays quite well.

Yaya Toure, on the other hand, is the first of the three.

Yaya Toure's ability is quite comprehensive, last season, although he played as a midfielder, but he has already shown a strong aggressiveness, and this season, Li Bin also decided to completely liberate him, let him completely embody his ability to run back and forth between the two penalty areas, sweep, and support forward.

In my memory, Yaya Toure when he played in Barcelona was still the way he played last season, more often sweeping at the back, without too many front-court tasks, which can be said to be decent, but not very eye-catching. After arriving at Manchester City, his attacking power began to be liberated, and he was regarded as the best midfielder in the Premier League at both ends of the pitch, especially during the Pellegrini period.

Since Zhilu Dao is like this, Li Bin has no interest in letting him develop in the direction of black and hard. Developing his offensive power early is not a bad thing for him.

These three midfielders are in similar positions, but their abilities are different. Put the three of them to good use, that is, let Parma's advantages be fully revealed.

This kind of kick is also what Li Bin wants. Relying on them, the opponent can't get past the midfield, and there will always be a lot fewer chances to score.

'With 60 per cent possession, 77 per cent pass completion and 11 shots on goal, we had a game that was down from the last game, but it was still very good.

Parma played well against Atalanta, and after the game, Parma also managed 60% possession and almost three times as many chances as their opponents, which made the game extremely easy.

Parma then played a third friendlie, this time against Prandelli's newly appointed Fiorentina.

Fiorentina bought Tony and other players this summer, and it has been strengthened a lot, and this game is also a game where the two balls test each other.

In this game, the first half of the game between the two sides played quite well, and in the second half, Li Bin removed the four-man group in the midfield in one go, and replaced Nocerino and De Jong as the back, and on the two wings, it was replaced by Quagliarella and Marchioni to play two wings, and the midfielder also used Arshavin to replace Rossi, so that the team continued to play.

This time, the midfield was out of control a lot, but with Arshavin's speed and Marchioni's cross, Parma lost their midfield advantage, but they counterattacked quickly, but they played quite smoothly.

A sharp counterattack can not be lost at any time, this is not the direction to pursue, but it is indeed a very effective means, Li Bin now also wants to make sure that his team has not lost this ability.

And Arshavin was quick to show his strength.

With Parma's backline tightened, Arshavin had more distance and space to strike. After getting the chance, Arshavin took the ball and launched a quick attack. He's really quick, he's got a lot of speed and agility when he hits the ball, and because he has a great passing ability, he's always ready to make passes. Because of playing in a small team, his tactical execution ability is relatively poor, but when counterattacking, Li Bin did not set up too many tactics, as soon as the defense was tightened, there was enough space left in the front court for him to decide how to launch a counterattack, which made him play like a fish in water - although Li Bin had high requirements for him when he was training, but when it came to the game, he would still give the players enough trust and enough to suit their way of play.

Speaking of which, Parma's weakest position is their forward line.

Up front, Milito is still a little rusty of Serie A, and although he has a lot of technical advantages, he still needs time to get used to it. The style of play in Serie A is very different from that of Serie B, and the way Milito plays there is very different from here. However, after all, he has strength, Li Bin believes that given time, he can play better in the future, but he still needs to hone well.

Giuseppe Rossi's progress, on the other hand, is very obvious. At the age of less than 20 years old, every first half of the year, there can be a great improvement in physical strength, he is stronger, he walks around in the front court, and has better strength.

Li Bin has always believed that there are some problems with his organizational skills, so he also wants to rely more on other ways to make Rossi stronger. His idea is also very simple, pure shooters are not suitable for the needs of modern football, and the central axis player, Rossi's size is really not suitable, then, what he needs, that is, to let Rossi have a larger range of motion, better foot skills, and better coordination - although Li Bin and he said that he is to become Signanuli, but, in Li Bin's heart, what he wants him to become is a player like Spain's Villa, Li Bin also believes that that is his best way.

In this game, Parma still won the game, although a small victory of 1-0 is nothing, but Parma verified their tactical strength is excellent, or let Li Bin satisfy his ideas.

'55 per cent possession, 83 per cent pass completion and 1......3 shots on goal We still have the advantage and we can be sure that our team, against most of the teams in Serie A, can have a technical advantage. ”

When Esposito's words were reported in front of Li Bin, Li Bin nodded with the same satisfaction.

"Lee, you still surprised me in this game." After the game, when Prandley talked to Li Bin, he couldn't help but praise a few words, "I have always known that you have a good eye, and I am not surprised that you have bought such a good player." But you're, to be able to see your team play such a good game, I have to say, I underestimated you. I used to think that you just had potential, but now I have to say that you have quality. ”

Li Bin smiled, still modest, but in his heart, he was also a little proud.

This game has been paid attention to by a lot of media, and even, after the game, Balaldi came to tell Li Bin that the style of play that Parma is now showing is very helpful for attracting fans to come and watch the game.

This is also what Li Bin expected, but it is not easy to say: in this place of Serie A, if the game is not good-looking, there are no players to watch the game on the spot. Unlike the Premier League, the Bundesliga and other regions with good economic conditions, Italy's economy is not good now, and fans are also a lot picky when watching football. If you can't play good enough football, I'm afraid that the fans won't buy it. And if the fans don't enter the stadium, Parma won't have any money to earn, there's no money to make, and Parma will drink the northwest wind?

Some people look at the score, see which team wins the most, and call themselves fans of which team, for them, the scene is good or bad, it's good to win, look at the news to be a fan, simple and clear. However, those fans will not pay for the team either. As a coach, Li Bin always has to think about giving some rewards to the fans who have spent money, instead of only thinking about how to earn results and forgetting the fundamentals of the team.

It's a good kick and it's always a sellout. There are many teams in the Premier League, but the most profitable is always Arsenal. Although Arsenal has not won the championship for several years, it is still the most expensive in the Premier League to sell tickets, and fans still like to watch it, is it not because they play well?

Even if you don't mention the question of football pursuits, you have to think about rewarding the fans. And how do you determine that it is a good football? Ticket sales can be seen.

"We sold about 5,500 season tickets, and this season, we will have a lot of people to watch." Balaldi is also very satisfied with this, "Let them see, our strength and scene will not be bad!" ”
