Chapter 762: Poaching Wenger
I believe many people have seen a movie that turns into gold, starring Brad O Pitt.
The story told in this film is very interesting, and the idea of signing some unrecognized players with a lot of statistics to build the most competitive team with minimal cost sounds fantastic
But is that really the case?
No, the reason is very simple, if the number jù can really replace the living person and deduce a game well, then all professional competitive sports will completely lose suspense, but it turns out that since the birth of various digital jù, professional competitive sports have not lost their suspense, but seem to be full of more and more mysteries.
The OpT Center, a subsidiary of Moon Sports Services, specializes in selling numbers, and they are constantly innovating and refining all sorts of counts, such as the so-called indirect assists, which are the penultimate passes before a goal.
I learned this number from Major League Football, and they have a so-called indirect assist in their count.
There are also things like the threat ball, which is a very complex number, which includes those passes that help a teammate complete a shot from the goal frame, or run with the ball to pull out the gap and then hit the goal, all of which are counted as threat goals.
Later, the so-called indirect threat ball was born, and the key pass, especially the latter, in fact, the key pass and the threat ball are the same on the surface, but in fact they are a little different, the former is also very complex, and there is no way to have a very perfect and accurate definition, it can only be said that the key ball is the pass that creates a shot opportunity.
The difference between it and assists is that assists are goals scored, and key passes don't care whether goals are scored or not.
So, the question is, how to distinguish between so many numbers and so many types?
And who can accurately define a team's tactical style with a whole set of numbers?
The answer is, no
I still remember that Ye Qiu once had an in-depth discussion with two professors, Mel Seman and Mikkaili in Milan's real yàn room, and these two professors also admitted very frankly that a very important reason why AC Milan's real yàn room is so beautiful is that the media and fans are wishful hype.
"You know, we live in a world that looks rational, but it's actually very emotional."
"All people are afraid to admit that they are ignorant, and they are trying to explain things that they can't explain."
"At that time, AC Milan had such an aging lineup, but it got such a high level of glory, and all the fans felt that it was impossible, because it was contrary to the common sense of football, so they had to try to understand, to discuss, to study what was going on here, so the mysterious Milan room became their biggest reason."
But in fact, what Milan really provides is always support, and what really determines the team's championship is the professionalism and tenacious spirit of the players, which is why AC Milan dared to weaken Milan's real room after winning the Champions League, because they know very well that this real room is not as important as many people think.
Or rather, it's important, but not as important as it is in the minds of many fans.
And what about Tottenham Hotspur's Theobald Research Centre?
The answer is the same, they are important, but no matter how important, they are only auxiliary, and cannot replace the role of a living person on the field
So, you can't say that the number is useless, but the key is how you look at it and how you use it.
Southampton's Matthew Le Tissier mentioned to Ye Qiu that they wanted to find two midfielders who could provide protection for the defence, but at the same time have the ability to stabilize the ball, because Adrianse's tactic is to push forward quickly and solve the battle in the front court as much as possible.
They originally wanted to loan Tottenham Hotspur's Brazilian defenders Sandro and Nick Powell, but Ye Qiu proposed a proposal to Adrianse, that is, Nick Powell can be loaned, but Sandro can't, but he recommended another player, Benfica's Nemanja O Matic.
Nemanja Matic, this player is no stranger, he used to play for Chelsea, and later was used as an addition to the introduction of David Luiz, transferred to Benfica, got a lot of opportunities, and the table is okay.
According to Ye Qiu's statistics from the scouting system, Nemanja Nemanja's tackles, interceptions and running distances were satisfactory, but what really convinced Adrianse was his positional heat map, which was almost perfectly embedded in the coverage area that Adrianse needed for the defender who was dragging behind.
What's more, he is able to provide a steady ball from a backward position and protection of the defence.
As it turns out, Southampton is now fifth in the English league, Adrianse's team has played a very surprising attacking football this season, with Matic and Nick Powell composed of a double back, plus Coutinho and Lucas Mora in front, supplemented by Schneidlin, Coke, Lallana, Lambert, Will O Hughes and other powerful stars, Southampton's overall combat effectiveness is very amazing.
It can be said that although the season is only a third of the way, Matthew Le Tissier and Adrianse are almost impressed by Tottenham Hotspur's original set of analysis, and they have to admit that Tottenham Hotspur is definitely the leader in professional football in the field of digital analysis.
From this example, it is not difficult to see that Tottenham Hotspur is skillful and accurate in the use of logarithmic jù, but Ye Qiu knows better than anyone that the analysis of qiē jù made by the analysis team is based on the team's tactical style.
In other words, it must first determine the tactical style, determine the tactical concept and thinking, and then conduct targeted analysis.
It's like Adrianse, he needs a defensive midfielder who can be there at the back, protect the defence, and at the same time be able to provide a steady ball out of the back, and if you're providing a covering player like Phil Jones or Vidal who can't stop running, it's not going to work.
It's not a question of the quality of the players, it's a question of fit.
In the same way, before a football match, the analysis of the numbers of the opposing sides can only provide support and reference for the head coach, and cannot be the basis for the head coach's decision-making.
The reason is very simple, a ball game is the same as being a person, in addition to black and white, it also has a middle ground, in addition to winning and losing, in addition to scoring and conceding goals, there are many middle elastic areas, but what the number jù provides you with is just cold black and white, without the slightest blur, but a football game is not like this.
Just like Tottenham Hotspur and Arsenal, anyone who is interested can easily get some statistics of the two teams from the comments and analysis of the newspapers and the media, and they will be surprised to see that Arsenal lost to Tottenham Hotspur in terms of attack, midfield organization and backfield defense.
In terms of the most important midfielders in modern football tactics, Arsenal's midfield trio this season, Cazorla, Arteta and Wilshere, have averaged 4u dangerous passes per game, which means that they have created an average of 4u shots for the team in 90 minutes of play.
But what about Tottenham Hotspur? Ramsey, Pirlo and Vidal, this midfield combination has an average of RR dangerous passes per game, even if Pirlo is replaced by Pogba, it has also reached one, and it still overtakes Arsenal.
And you must know that what Tottenham Hotspur advocates and advocates is not the midfield possession genre, but the fast and concise midfield, to create a threat in the front, so in Tottenham Hotspur, Messi is the one who threatens the most passes, and then Ribery and Hazzard.
Defensively, Tottenham Hotspur's combination averages 13 tackles per game, if Pirlo is replaced by Pogba. 1, while Arsenal's midfielders average only 7 tackles per game, which is significantly behind Tottenham Hotspur.
Or that is not enough, then add the average distance runs, interceptions, passes and success rate per game, etc., Arsenal can be compared to Tottenham Hotspur in terms of passes and success rate, and everything else lags behind their opponents.
When everyone sees this, they must have the impression that how can Arsenal win?
But in reality, Tottenham were the underdog for the first 20 minutes of the north London derby at the Emirates Stadium, and Arsenal even had a one-on-one chance to score only to be saved by Petr Cech's reflexive flying.
This is what the number of jù can't explain, because there is no way to tell you why the Arsenal players are suddenly playing like chicken blood in this game, so able to run, so able to pass, so able to grab.
However, a very paradoxical scene appeared.
In the 23rd minute, Tottenham Hotspur played a quick counter-attack, Vidal passed diagonally to Messi, who quickly advanced with the ball to the edge of Arsenal's penalty area, facing Vermaelen, Messi smashed the ball inside and slammed his left foot into the box.
Drogba cut diagonally to the right side from the top of the penalty area, Mertesacker was blocked by him, and at the edge of the small penalty area, Drogba turned to stop the ball, pushed Mertesacker with his body, turned to the left, and sent the ball forward with his left foot.
The ball rolled past Koscielny and landed on the left side of the goal, where Ribery slid in and slotted in with an easy push
All the Arsenal fans in the entire Emirates Stadium were dumbfounded, they clearly controlled the advantage, if you analyze it by the number of jù, they should definitely take the lead, and even score, but they attacked for more than 20 minutes, and the goal did not score, but Tottenham Hotspur counterattacked, and the goal was scored
But soon, they saw that the situation had completely changed
When Tottenham Hotspur scored the first goal, the game restarted, Arsenal rushed at Tottenham Hotspur like crazy, but Thiago Silva's long diagonal pass, Ribery took the ball close to the left, faced Sagna, continuous one-on-one breakthrough, but never got rid of Sagna, forced to knock back.
After Ramsey stopped the ball, he led to the middle, there was no one to defend him at the front of the big penalty area, and the Welshman shot directly with his legs, a 45-degree oblique shot, and a long shot about 30 meters away from the goal, which directly penetrated Arsenal's goal, o
No one knows what's going on, no one knows what's going on, the only thing that is clear to everyone is that Arsenal are done and have fallen at Tottenham's feet again
The Arsenal fans in the stands also completely lost the mood of shouting, and they allowed a very small number of Tottenham Hotspur fans to piece together Arabic numerals with paper cards in the stands, and when Ramsey scored from a long shot, the number on the paper card changed from 1 to many Tottenham Hotspur fans were shouting
It was a reminder to the players on the pitch that they were three goals away from the goal set by the manager
Perhaps, in the eyes of many Tottenham Hotspur fans, this is no longer a football game, but a goal game.
And as it turned out, in the end Tottenham did score five goals, while Arsenal also scored one.
Tottenham Hotspur once again lost to Arsenal away from home, but the interesting thing is that if you look at the number of games in the whole game, you will see that Arsenal should not have lost so badly, and even they are at least equal to Tottenham Hotspur, why did this happen?
The answer is simple, the number jù, many times with a strong deceptive and hindsight attributes.
If you take it seriously, you'll lose
Some people say that the older you get, the more stubborn and stubborn you become.
That's true of Alex Ferguson, and so is Arsene Wenger.
When everyone in the world is questioning me, I'm going to prove it to you in my way
This should be what Wenger really thinks in his heart now, even if it seems a little out of line with the current trend and situation, but you can't say that this is stupidity, you can only say that everyone values things differently.
After participating in the press conference, Ye Qiu and Wenger dispersed, but not long after, Ye Qiu found Wenger again in the home team coach's box at the Emirates Stadium, and he sat there alone, silently looking at the busy staff on the field, and silently looking at the deserted stands in the distance.
Or, only for this moment, he looks like a lonely old man of sixty-three.
"Let's make a deal," Ye Qiu walked over and said with a smile.
Wenger had already seen him walk out of the player's tunnel, snorted and smiled, and didn't make a sound, he and Ye Qiu have been neighbors for almost ten years, and they are very familiar with him, so he knows very well that Ye Qiu has come to see him.
They are undying opponents on the field, but when the game is over, they are friends.
"Do you think you're being too cruel to such an old man?" Wenger asked, looking up.
"Fart" Ye Qiu scolded with a smile, "I want to say, I'm afraid it's hard for you to keep Wilshere, sell him to me"
"Get out" Wenger got up directly from his seat, this was his instinctive reaction, because he was left with such a baby bump now, if he was poached again, then he really had a dead heart.
But soon, Wenger realized that there was a non-poaching agreement between Arsenal and Tottenham Hotspur, Ye Qiu would definitely not do this, and risk losing face to forcibly poach Wilshere, otherwise, who will believe him in the future?
"Don't be so excited, I can give enough sincerity" Ye Qiu said with a smile, "30 million euros"
For a young player who has been injured for more than a year and is only twenty years old now, Ye Qiu gave 30 million euros, which is indeed a rather amazing, even outrageous price, you must know that the reason why Rooney was high at the beginning was because he was a striker, while Wilshere was a midfielder.
Moreover, Wilshere today has not reached the height of Rooney back then, so it is impossible for him to be so valuable.
"You're kidding me?" Wenger sat back again, in a bad mood, and was a little angry when Ye Qiu said this.
But Ye Qiu had a very serious expression, "You nod, I'll pay"
Wenger can't say anything about it this time, it's all up to this, Ye Qiu must be serious.
Seeing Wenger hesitate, Ye Qiu smiled, he actually felt that it was too exaggerated to buy Wilshere at such a high price, and the reason why he was willing to say such a thing was to judge that Wenger must be reluctant to sell.
Of course, if Wenger is willing to sell, he is willing to buy
"You know what? If you continue to stick to it in the way you are now, your ideas and ideas will basically be impossible to achieve, and Wilshere's stay at Arsenal will only be a waste in the end, and he may even end up being an ordinary person, far from the height you have placed on him. ”
'But it's different at Tottenham Hotspur, Andrea Pirlo is getting older, and although we have Paul Pogba and Christian Eriksen, Sandro and Phil Jones are also very good, and there's a Philippe Coutinho, but I'm sure Wilshere will get a good show.'
One of the big reasons Wenger has high hopes for Wilshere is that he sees a trend in Wilshere, a new trend that has been bred by the integration of English players into Europe's big six system.
"With his current situation, he will also sit on the bench when he goes to your side" Wenger understood Ye Qiu's thoughts as soon as he heard it.
In fact, Ye Qiu has many of the same ideas as him, such as Ye Qiu's transformation of Ramsey, the Welshman has completely established his status as a first-line star this season, as long as he continues to maintain this momentum of progress, sooner or later he can become a top midfielder, he is a traditional English H player with all-round technical refinement.
The other is Pogba, this player is very valued by Ye Qiu, and has become a rising star in England this season, and has performed quite well in many games, gradually entering the midfield rotation, and even has the possibility of replacing Pirlo and becoming the main midfield of Tottenham Hotspur.
The other is Nick Powell, who is on loan in Southampton, this player is known as Pirlo II, and is not inferior to Pogba at all in the Saints' table, and after Pirlo is old, it is not ruled out that he will return to the team in the future, directly fill Pirlo's position, and become the team's main midfielder.
"I have money, I like to buy a substitute for 30 million euros and put it on the bench, it's not like you, the money is put in the bank" Ye Qiu sat down next to Wenger with a smile, crossed Erlang's legs, and looked leisurely.
Sometimes he thinks that Wenger is not actually suitable to be a manager, because he is too kind of person to be suitable for the kind of life-and-death wrestling field, which leads to the kind of bloodiness that I will never see in his team, even if I die, I will bite you off a piece of flesh.
"I heard that now Arsenal fans are shouting for you to get out of class" Ye Qiu thought of a very good position, which is very suitable for Wenger, "I said, if you really get out of class, Yu Crisp will not be the head coach, come to Theorebald, enter the practice center, and help us be responsible for the development of young players, how about it?" ”
Wenger smiled after hearing this, this guy is too much, poaching all the corners to the head of the sworn enemy, how can he say that he is also the head coach of Arsenal, and he went to Tottenham Hotspur as a small clerk?
"Well, I'll think about it," Wenger replied.
Ye Qiu smiled after hearing this, Wenger said that it was consideration, but that was a kind word, if you really want to lose
This guy seems to be a group of harmony, but in fact he is so proud in his bones, where is it possible to accept it?
