After Team B scored a goal, the trust and affirmation of Rossi by teammates was slowly built up in their hearts.

Under Rossi's containment defense, his teammates in the rest of the position played very comfortably, and the ball was more and more concentrated at Rossi's feet.

Teammates are willing to give the ball, and Rossi's movement and containment are even more obvious.

In particular, his drop-back creates a space for Wilson to accelerate up front, and if he is trapped, Rossi can also create opportunities for other teammates with a single kick.

Gradually, Team B's offense became smoother, and the pace gradually accelerated, making the teammates off the field stand up, wide-eyed, and amazed.

I'm not mistaken, that's probably about 20 balls.

The style of the English league is notoriously rough, and there are not many teams with beautiful football like Arsenal, all of which are high-confrontation and high-tempo styles, which make fans addicted.

However, under the organization of Rossi, the short pass penetration style of the B team is dazzling, especially this six-a-side football, which has a small field and is dizzying to the eyes.

Even Eddie Howe was surprised, is this still my team's?

Bournemouth's success last season was due to a tough style of play and a very aggressive attack.

When facing strong teams, they can still maintain a high scoring ability.

However, the team's defense is full of holes, and the emptiness in the back when pressing on the big pressure is often seized by the opponent to counterattack.

To solve this problem, it is necessary to strengthen the team's passing ability, use the overall pressing, improve the success rate of the attack, and reduce the chance of being caught by the opponent to counterattack.

Although there are a few good passers in the team, they all give the ball to the front and hand the goal to the striker.

Once it is cleared, the gap formed in the midfield will be grabbed by the opponent and play a quick counterattack.

In this summer recruitment, Eddie Howe wanted to spend a lot of money to buy a playmaking midfielder and a playmaking striker to make the midfield link perfectly.

But the departure of the main striker had to make him use the money to make up for the vacancy first.

Having already spent his budget, Eddie Howe, who was penniless, had no choice but to push Harry Arte into a midfield position and then loan Rossi from Leicester City.

This seemingly "low-profile" recruitment, in today's practice match, Rossi's performance was unexpected.

After the B team continued to pass, midfielder O'Kane sent a through ball to Wilson on the front line, using his speed to score the ball.

2:3！！！

After the goal, the players of the B team all ran to Rossi and high-fived him in celebration, and it was because of Rossi's presence that they felt how easy it was to score a goal.

The players of Team A were anxious and angry, and for a whole few minutes, they didn't even touch the ball.

But the reality is so cruel, after Team A's attack was defused, the ball quickly returned to Team B's control, and the short pass penetration was played again.

This time, it was Wilson who sent the through ball.

Team A feared his speed and shrunk the defensive line to limit his area of movement.

However, with a heavy force on Wilson's side, Rossi in the middle has a chance.

Rossi took advantage of a counter-run, got rid of the defense, received Wilson's through ball, faced the attacking goalkeeper, and scored with a pick-and-shoot to equalize the score.

The thirty-minute confrontation ended in a draw, but Team A was dejected and Team B was elated.

Through the game, the teammates found that Rossi was not as difficult as they imagined, and in addition to being a little resistant during the celebration, he was still willing to take the initiative to communicate with his teammates on the court.

"Luo, it's a great kick, I didn't expect the power of the pass control to be so great." Wilson gave him a thumbs up.

Rosie took a sip of the energy drink, shook his head and said, "It's not that we are good at passing and controlling, it's the problem of opposing defense." ”

Cook on the other side heard this, thinking that Rosie was humiliating his defensive ability, and rushed over with an arrow, pressed Rosie with his chest, and bowed his head and provoked: "Hey, newcomer, do you know what you're talking about?" ”

Wilson hurriedly separated the two from the middle, and said, "Cook, calm down, that's not what Luo meant." ”

Rosie gave him a blank look, it was obviously a defensive problem, and he still didn't admit it, why was he so impulsive?

The team also gathered around, and someone whispered in Cook's ear: "Don't mess with him, he can do kung fu." ”

When Cook heard this, his face changed slightly, but the posture had been done enough, and now he confessed that his face was even more unbearable.

"Cook!"

Head coach Eddie Howe walked over and said with a straight face: "Give me ten laps around the field." ”

Then he said to the whole team: "Fifteen minutes later, all the staff will go to the tactics room and have a meeting." ”

Angry, Cook ran around the field for ten laps before heading to the war room with his teammates.

The tactics room is a place where the team learns techniques and tactics, and it is equipped with projectors and tactics boards, so that the head coach can analyze the tactics more clearly.

Eddie Howe saw the angry Cook and said, "Rowe is training for the first time today, and he can quickly spot our defensive problems, won't our opponents investigate carefully?" ”

Hearing this, Cook, who was still eyebrows upturned, his angry expression disappeared in an instant, and was replaced by shame.

Last season, the team's goal difference was 1, indicating that there was a huge problem in defence.

Eddie Howe continued: "I just want you to know about the arrangement of today's matchup, there is a serious problem with the defense. ”

He drew a diagram of attack and defense on the tactical board and said: "The three goals conceded by Team A were all after being beaten. You have good interceptions, but defending the ball behind you is disastrous. ”

Eddie Howe took the remote control, turned on the projection, and pictures of the team's various statistics appeared.

'Last season we conceded 66 goals, 20 of which were played by opponents who were left behind. It's a terrible statistic, and I did my analysis and if we can prevent half of those 20 goals, then we will be in sixth place in the points and will be able to participate in the promotion play-offs. ”

The players were all moved because they never thought that they would be able to step into the Premier League with one foot after ten attacks.

Eddie Howe saw that his eyes were fixed on Cook and said, "Cook, Rowe is right. They just do simple running and passing, they can take advantage of the gaps behind you and score with the ball, which is a fact that you have to face. ”

Cook blushed suddenly, patted Rosie with his hand, and said, "Hey, buddy, I was wrong just now." ”

Rosie also patted him on the shoulder and said, "I also apologize to you for my words." ”

Eddie Howe looked at the two with satisfaction, which showed that the atmosphere in the team was very good right now, and Rossi no longer felt strange, and continued: "Since we found a problem, then we have to fix it. ”

The screen changed again, and Eddie Howe analyzed: "This is the team's defense last season, with 740 interceptions, 961 clearances, 45 yellow cards, and 1 red card. It shows that our interception ability is very good, and the problem is in the defenders who run without the ball. ”

Eddie Howe pulled the defensive problem back.

Players who run without the ball can be in a good position, receive a through ball from a teammate, and pose a threat to the goal.

In such a situation, the defender has no choice but to stop the offense by fouling.

And Eddie Howe also pointed out that the team is most prone to mistakes and gaps after pressing heavily on the two wings, so the team will have to prepare for the next few days to defend.

Only a solid defense and a reduction in mistakes are the key to the team's victory.

The tactical session didn't end until 6 p.m., and after the players left, Eddie Howe was still in the office, setting up the defensive drills for the next few days.

When the assistant handed over the list of friendly matches, he did not hesitate to add Rossi's name.
