Chapter 225: Adjustment

It is customary to ask for a recommendation vote at the beginning, and thank you very much for the tips and evaluation votes of all readers......

Following the grim-faced Lippi, the Juventus stars fled into the tunnel to the disgruntled boos of the home fans, while the Fiorentina players returned to the away dressing room to the cheers of a small group of away fans.

'The first half was very good, especially Rui and Stefan to keep the pace of the game under control and allow us to take the initiative away from home. Once back in the dressing room, Ranieri was in the room and praised his players: "Of course Gabriel and Philippe did a great job, both of you scored to give us a two-goal lead at Juventus' home stadium at the end of the first half...... So, for the next 45 minutes, our task is to maintain the momentum of the first half and not give the opponent any hope of a comeback! Do you have faith? ”

"Yes!" All the Fiorentina players in the room shouted in unison that whoever comes out to pour cold water on this kind of team is a fool when the morale of this kind of team is high.

"Well, let me talk about the changes we were going to make in the second half...... Ranieri couldn't have wasted 15 minutes at half-time, so he quickly wrote and drew on the tactical board and began to explain to the players the adjustments he was going to make.

While morale was high and harmonious in the visitors' dressing room, it was a grim scene in the Juventus dressing room, with manager Lippi leaning against the door of the dressing room, scanning every player in the dressing room with an unkind look.

"Lift my head up! What are you doing with your heads down? Do you guys remember what I said before the game? weishenme doesn't play the game according to my arrangement?! After a short silence, Lippi, who knew what he should say, finally spoke, his tone very angry, "I ask you to play steadily from the beginning of the game, and not to be led by your opponents, but what about you? From the first minute of the opening kick against the Fiorentina players, the tragedy at the Stadio Olimpico hasn't been a month in a month, are you planning to repeat the same mistakes and deliver another heavy defeat in front of our fans?! ”

"Laurent [Blank], when you're attacking, you're going to get in and get involved, no problem, I can satisfy you, but as a centre-back, should you do your job first? Tell me, what is the most important task of a central defender! Seeing that the defender he valued the most had been sitting in his seat with his head bowed and silent, Lippi unceremoniously called Blanc by name.

Blanke, who was sitting on the bench with his head bored, heard Lippi call his name, slowly raised his head, looked into Lippi's eyes, and hesitantly said a word: "Defense." ”

"Excellent! It seems that you are still awake and know that defense comes first. Lippi nodded in satisfaction, and then his face became solemn again, "But look at your performance in the first half!" Where were you when Inzaghi shot in the box? Outside the big forbidden area! Don't tell me that you need a teammate to fill in for you, this is Juventus! It's Italy! A defense-oriented league, any player who does not participate in defense will be ruthlessly abandoned by this league! ”

Lippi is right, even a thin striker like Inzaghi will compete for the ball with opponents much stronger than him when the team needs him to participate in defense, although the head coach will generally be very humane and not give him this kind of tricky task, but Inzaghi's defensive enthusiasm has never been weak.

Lippi scolded Blank in the dressing room without criticizing even a single word of the team's other centre-back, Iuliano, because he is now well aware of the characteristics of this young man - he can only take the ball and not take care of his own back, which is in itself his characteristic, and it is obviously impossible for him to do more with his qualifications.

The reason why he criticizes Blank so much is because Lippi knows that the France international can actually do better, not only in attack, but with his physical condition and judgment of the ball, Blank can be a good all-round defender, who can make a huge contribution to the team in terms of marking, reinforcement and command and defensive positioning, and not just a hard-to-go confrontation with opposing strikers as he is now.

However, Blank's development is an issue that will take a long time to solve, and Lippi now faces the challenge of finding a player who can temporarily replace Paulo Sousa as soon as possible.

Pierrot and Deschamps are obviously not good, Lippi has let these two players take turns to organize the team's attack in recent games, and the effect received is not very good, Deschamps is good at defense, and can only be said to be decent in terms of organizing attacks, there is no threatening passing, most of the time it is not for merit but for no fault; Pierrot's aura and attacking talent are obvious, but his aura is more of an instant burst than a long-term preservation, which determines that he can only be used as a classic nine-and-a-half player and not a qualified playmaker in midfield.

At this time, Lippi suddenly noticed Yugovic sitting in the corner of the team's locker room, and had a plan in his heart.

……

"The second half started and the game continued...... Oh, and Juventus made a change at half-time, with Lippi replacing Antonio Conte with Jugovic, who arrived from Sampdoria this summer. The Yugoslav midfielder Jishu is a great player, but he doesn't seem to be very popular at Juventus, but with this being his third league appearance this season, it seems that Lippi is planning to try to replace the absent Paulo Sousa with Jugovic on the time being, so it will be interesting to see how it works. ”

"Oh? Yugovic actually played, it seems that Lippi, a rigid guy, has finally figured it out. Seeing Lippi's substitution choice, Zhuang Mingge said in surprise, after all, with Lippi's personality, the players he doesn't like often can't even get the opportunity to play and will be excluded, such as Baggio and Bergomi when coaching at Inter Milan, Panucci, Ambrosini, Odor, Cassano and others when coaching the Italian national team, without exception. There are very few players like Jugovic who were reactivated after being beaten into the cold at the beginning of the season, which also shows that Lippi is indeed forced by Juventus's predicament now, and even the conflict with Jugovic has to be abandoned, allowing the Yugoslav midfielder to organize Juve's attack.

The game is going to become interesting, Zhuang Mingge thought to himself as he looked at Juventus, which had been rejuvenated under the command of the Yugoslavs.
