Caesar: Four years later, Brazil won the championship!!

The headline on the front page of the next day's photo newspaper was the sentence of the first press conference held by Yang Cheng after he joined the national team, which looked very imposing and weighty with Yang Cheng's photos at the press conference.

Obviously, this is an extremely important piece of news for the Germans, and even the news of their government's introduction of some new policies is only listed in an index, and the news content is placed on the third page, and the words that Yang Cheng said after joining the German team are put on the front page of the headline by reporters.

For this country that regards football as a religion, Yang Cheng's entry into the national team is more important than anything else!

"This guy is in the limelight!" Sienna grabbed a cup of coffee in each hand, and a newly launched Bild newspaper in her armpit, walked to the eye-catching brown Audi Q7 flagship parked on the side of the road, put the coffee on the roof of the car, opened the door and handed the newspaper to Heidi? Krum, took another coffee and sat down.

Heidi? Krum flipped through the latest front-page news and shook his head, "It's very similar to his style, unexpected!"

He took the coffee from Sienna and took a sip, but his eyes and attention were on the newspaper.

"Do you think this guy is too excited, and some people dare to say that they will definitely win the World Cup, it's too arrogant, right?" Sienna feels that this time is indeed a bit too much, after all, the World Cup is not something that can be won by just someone who says it.

"It is estimated that there will definitely be a large number of people against him this time!" This English girl knows a lot about the mentality of the media.

This media doesn't care about your fame and image, nor how many fans you have, they only care about sales and eyeballs, so as long as they can earn sales and win eyeballs. So whether it's to hold your stinky feet or step on you a few times, they don't care at all, it doesn't matter to them, it's commonplace.

"Normal, there is a general lack of morale and confidence in the German team now, and he is so high-profile, which is equivalent to blocking the back road, coupled with his fame and status. On the contrary, it may boost the morale of the team and give the players some confidence. "Heidi? Krum drank coffee and analyzed, she knew Yang Cheng very well.

"What do we do now?" Sienna pouted.

Heidi? Krum smiled, "What else can I do?" Let's go to Adidas first, then go to Madrid, and talk to the people of the German Football Association, especially Tswanzig, who has no less idea of beating our Caesar. ”

Sienna nodded, "Sister, you're still too protective of him." You do so much for him in private, the one who has no conscience may not know, but we have to run around for him, tired and tired. ”

"He knows!" Heidi? Krum smiled. "It's just that a person like him can't say anything, but if you look at his eyes, you can understand that he must know!"

"You're obsessed!" Sienna laughed and scolded Heidi? Krum said.

"Aren't you too?" Heidi? Krum teased, "And there are some things he really doesn't have to come up with. But someone had to do it for him. Think and fight for him, so it's up to us to come. ”

Celebrities, they can't always come forward with everything, there are many things that can't be talked about face-to-face, or in person, so a third party must be appointed, so the player's agent was born from this, and Heidi? Krum and Sienna? Miller has done such things for Yang Cheng over the years.

"Let's go!" Sienna shook her head. looked very helpless.

"The high intensity of pressing in the midfield has become part of the modern football tactical system. An indispensable and important part!" …,

In the conference room of the training ground in Frankfurt, Yang Cheng stood in front of the large screen of the tactical board system. It was the day before Germany left for Belgium, and Yang Cheng had to set the tone for his upcoming match.

In other words, he wants to tell all the players today what kind of football he wants them to play.

Some people may think it is strange, after training and drills, why say something theoretical?

Man is a very strange animal, although he shouts to be free, but in fact he has a very strong servile nature in his bones, so some people say that man has a strong need to be governed and ruled. Mixed & Mixed Talk Network // (ww no / pop-up window wide / advertise full text TXT download)

If Yang Cheng only uses drills and practice to tell the players what to do, it will definitely not be able to discuss all the changes and details that may occur on the field, but he directly tells the players some tones, tells the players their own football theories, so that the players can understand, and they can deal with emergencies on the field anytime and anywhere according to these theories.

Of course, blindly emphasizing theory and ignoring practice, it is impossible to bring out a strong team, only the combination of theory and practice, can allow players to maximize the understanding of the manager's intentions, and implement it.

"Many people find it strange how to avoid being hit by the opponent to the greatest extent possible by the high defense in front of the defensive line?"

Yang Cheng pointed to his hand, and a tactical map of Real Madrid appeared on the big screen behind him, and it can almost be seen that Real Madrid's entire back line has been advanced to the center circle, especially the two fullbacks, who are pressed very high.

"The answer lies in the on-the-spot counter-robbery and high-intensity pressing, but in fact this is only a rough idea, there are many details in it, such as ......" Yang Cheng's hand drew a line from the front striker of Real Madrid to the central defender at the back of Real Madrid, and a number immediately appeared on the big screen, 28.7 meters.

"That's what I'm telling you, which is that under no circumstances should the player at the front of the team be closer to the back than 30 metres from each other, or even within 25 metres if they are threatened by a strong attack."

Coupled with the area controlled by the goalkeeper in the penalty area, it is just enough to completely cover the 32-meter area!

The tactical board system on the big screen aptly divides the areas mentioned by Yang Cheng on the floor plan of the stadium, so that all the players have a general understanding in their hearts.

"So in a game, you have to be observant, not only around you, but also in front of and behind you. Keep your distance, keep echoing, and compress the area controlled by our three lines. ”

Speaking of this, Yang Cheng smiled, "Don't underestimate this, everyone, according to the data we have drawn from the OPTA cooperation, if we can form a high-intensity oppression in the area controlled by our three lines." Then the two choices that the opponent makes most often wrong, first, big feet, and second, hesitating to lose the ball. ”

"Of course, if we were playing against teams like Real Madrid, Barcelona and Spain with super possession and individual ability, the effect of the pressure would be much weaker, but you have to understand whether it is Real Madrid that I brought out or Barcelona. Or Spain, it's all teams that press high, you should know something about it in the World Cup final. ”

Many of the players who played in the final couldn't stop nodding their heads, and they were so pressed by Spain that they couldn't even get a smooth pass and receive in that game. So when Yang Cheng said this, they immediately understood the purpose of oppression.

"There are only two teams in football that can reach the top in the future, one is that you are so good at possession that you are not afraid of conceding, similar to Real Madrid, Barcelona and Spain; Then there's the way you defend so badly that you don't need to have possession to win, similar to Chelsea. But either way. It's all based on high-intensity compression. ”…,

"Maybe a lot of people will think it's strange again, pressing, a lot of defensive counter-attacking teams are using pressing tactics, why can't they? Why can't they be like Chelsea, or like Real Madrid and Barcelona? ”

Yang Cheng's rhetorical question is obviously also a doubt in the minds of many players, that is, why are they so special?

"The reason is simple, it lies in two things, first. There are high and low pressing tactics, second. Execution of the players!"

"I often say that football in the future will be played by smart people. You have to use your brains, what are the pressing tactics played by teams that don't use your brains? Crazy robbery? Running after the ball? Wrong, that's the lowest level of pressing, and it's the most ineffective kind of pressing, because everyone who has played knows that you can't run all 90 minutes, right? ”

The players couldn't stop nodding their heads when they heard it, they couldn't run all over the field in a game, they couldn't keep running, and their physical fitness couldn't keep up.

"This type of oppression can last for an hour, for 80 minutes, but the last 10 minutes are enough to kill you!"

"The real pressing tactics are actually very simple, you have to do two things, first, everyone has the same ideas and goals, and second, teamwork, when you have the same idea from front to back of the whole team, and everyone has the same belief, then the powerful aura of this team is enough to deter all opponents, just like Spain did in the final!"

"One grabs, one drags back to assist defense, one flank protection, and the surrounding teammates are also waiting for the opportunity to move according to the situation on the field at the same time, the ball that can be grabbed in the front court will never let him pass through the midfield, and the ball that can be broken in the middle of the field will never let him transition to the backfield, and everyone will have a unified belief from front to back, so that the team can truly form combat effectiveness."

"Also, pressing is not about blindly grabbing, but about having wisdom, intercepting, surrounding, pinching, and cutting off the ball route...... There are countless ways to save worry and effort, and it has actually been proved that a truly intelligent full-court pressing style of play does not necessarily consume more physical energy than ordinary tactical play, and the most critical point in this is to work together as a team under a unified concept. ”

"One chopstick is easy to break, and ten chopsticks are equally easy to break when folded separately, but if the chopsticks are tied together, it is difficult to break, because after the chopsticks are tied together, the force surface is larger, and the force distributed to each chopstick is smaller, and the same is true in football tactics."

'That's why one of the things I always say is that football is an irreversible trend and we've always done a good job of that, but I hope we can do better.'

The German team's off-ball running is already excellent, so Yang Cheng feels that there is no need to emphasize more on this point, so he focuses on high-intensity pressing, which is the basis for the German team to complete the transformation.

"Passing and pulling, pressing all over the court, counterattacking on the spot, these are the three tactical requirements that I have summed up, the first two don't need to be said, and the last point is to counterattack on the spot. There are two requirements in this, first, after regaining the ball, the most important thing is that you must not easily return the ball to the opponent again. ”

It turns out that it is very dangerous to lose the ball again in a short period of time after grabbing the ball, and many goals are scored in such circumstances, so Yang Cheng emphatically reminds this.

"Second, the offense starts the moment you steal the ball. I want all of you to have the awareness that the offense starts with me, as long as you get the ball and grab the ball, then you are the initiator of the attack, and the other players will run and pull around you, which requires you to think at all times, every time you catch the ball, every time you run, you have to think. What is my purpose and what do I do when I get the ball? Many people comment on Yang Cheng's Real Madrid, thinking that this team's running distance in every game is the best in the world, and that the team's physical fitness is very good. In fact, Yang Cheng thinks this is nonsense, they are all people, Real Madrid's players are definitely not as physical as Chelsea's strong men, but they can run so much because they run smart.

Unified robbery, unified oppression. Uniform retraction. Unified forward pressure, which often makes it easy for the team to control the local area, to achieve the effect of twice the result with half the effort, the players can continue to run with the saved physical energy, continue to act in unison, and the final result is that the Real Madrid players run for a long distance.

The Spanish national team is strong, but it is not without its pitfalls. For example, Real Madrid and Barcelona players have a problem with each other's players, even if Bosque has done a good job of this. But it still can't change that.

Again, Real Madrid has a lot of problems. It's not a perfect team, but they rely on their strong effective possession and strong attacking prowess to ensure that their other problems and flaws are not magnified or even covered up.

The same is true for the German team, for example, their overall defensive line is slow to turn, Yang Cheng feels that this is not a problem, the problem is how to cover up this defect through the whole, such as strengthening the high-intensity pressure in the midfield, making the position of the two central defenders a little deeper, etc.

Of course, Yang Cheng doesn't want the German team to play football like Real Madrid, which is impossible, because Germany and Real Madrid have different staffing, at least there is no superstar like Real Madrid in the German team.

Pressing, this is actually a neutral word, there is no good or bad, there is no difference in technique and body, for example, Real Madrid and Barcelona, you can use possession to press the opponent, and then press the defense forward; Chelsea can also press opponents with their bodies and defence, can you say which one is better?

The answer is no, because Real Madrid and Barcelona may not necessarily be able to beat Chelsea.

The key is not to learn what kind of oppression, but to find the most suitable way of oppression for yourself.

In Yang Cheng's opinion, what is the best thing about the German team?

Tactical execution, overall team operations, running without the ball!

Therefore, the pressure of the German team should be tailored around these three points, and make a fuss around these three points.

But to achieve high-intensity pressing, it can only be said that the German team has a foundation to enter the top team, as if in a game, you successfully snatch the ball from the opponent's feet, which can only prevent the opponent from scoring, it is only the beginning, and it is still far from you sending the ball into the opponent's goal.

3 September 2010, Brussels, Belgium hosts Germany.

Yang Cheng basically continued the main lineup in the World Cup in this game, but some positions were adjusted, the goalkeeper is still Neuer, and the backline is Lahm, Kyle, Mertesacker and Jérôme? Boateng, the two midfielders are Schweinsteiger and Khedira, and the attacking defenders are Thomas? Muller, Mesut Ozil and Deisler, striker Klose.

Kompany, Vermaelen, Hazzard, Fellaini, De Faor, and Lukaku are all famous monsters in European football today, each with extraordinary strength and outstanding potential.

There is a gap in strength, so Belgian coach Rickens adopts a more secure tactic, while the German team uses its strength to be a cut above the opponent and firmly control the situation on the field, but the German team's form is obviously not good enough, and it can even be said that it is poor.

"Apart from a little confusion after the opening kick-off, the World Cup runners-up showed solid control and controlled the game for most of the game, but they didn't really create many chances." ...,"Unlike //the fastest text update without pop-ups and no ads // usually, we can see that the German team is running very actively, the on-the-spot counter-attack after conceding the ball is very positive, the integrity looks strong, and the distance between the three lines is tightly controlled, which makes Belgium very uncomfortable and makes frequent mistakes." ”

"Unlike in the Loew era, Yang Cheng let the German defense still press forward, but the position of the two central defenders is obviously different, Mertesacker is up front, Kyle is behind, Lahm and Jérôme? Boateng was actively involved in attacking midfield and even up front, and the German team played solidly and did not give Belgium a chance. ”

After stabilizing the situation, Belgium began to try to play a counter-attack, harassing the holes in the German defence, but it was clear that the German team did not give Belgium such a chance, and it was difficult for Belgium's ball to threaten the German defense under the aggressive counter-attacking tactics of on-the-spot counter-attacking and strong pressing in the midfield.

Even if there is a fish that slips through the net into the defensive area, Mertesacker and Kyle can also be defused in time, especially Kyle, several times to help the defense of the position is very timely, very stable, formed a strong protection behind Mertesacker, the only more threatening attack, Kyle decisively chose to give a foul when entering his own half, although he got a yellow card, but also gave the German team a chance to breathe.

Although Germany was firmly in control of the situation, it was never able to create a favorable threat.

Time entered the second half, Yang Cheng further strengthened his attack, trying to win this game in one go.
