713 Born a genius at the wrong time

There is such a saying, it is called changing the commander like changing the knife!

There is a little bit of truth to that, at least in Argentina's home game against Uruguay, Argentina's performance was still good, really good, the best game in recent games. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

2:1, Argentina defeated Uruguay and got its first victory in the last six rounds of qualifying.

Messi opened the scoring for Argentina in just 6 minutes, and then, 5 minutes later, Maradona's trusted son-in-law, Aguero scored another goal for his father-in-law, although Uruguay counterattacked later, Argentina's situation was a little bad, but in the end it was a solid 2:1 to kill Uruguay, and Lugano scored a goal for Uruguay.

Winning the first official match, Maradona enjoyed the cheers of the whole stadium at the Giant's Stadium, and at this moment, he was praised by countless Argentine fans, and he became the savior of countless Argentines.

Sergio Aguero and Lionel Messi played 70 and 80 minutes respectively before being replaced by Gutiérrez and Di Maria, and Maradona obviously knew that Mourinho was sitting in the stands, and if he played the whole game, Mourinho's anger would have been waiting for him after the game.

It's been a long time since Argentina had a win, and the fans were celebrating the victory as a festive celebration, especially at the thought of a strong Uruguay opponent.

Of course, Uruguay also had a main player who did not play in this game, that is, Forlan, a top European striker who played for De Roisden, who missed this round of the game after playing the last round of qualifiers because of a slight injury, which also reduced Uruguay's scoring efficiency a lot.

Suarez's performance is average, and now he is estimated to still need to be carved, but he is also very optimistic about Cassel, but in his position, the Red Rebels have better stars and better future rookies, so there is no need to seduce him.

After the game, Messi, who passed and shot, was elected the best player of the game, and the Argentine superstar seemed to have a very high status in the hearts of the fans in his hometown, and was cheered and cheered by the fans in the stadium.

After the game, Maradona did not focus on the performance of individual players or criticize them at the press conference, he only said that he was quite satisfied with the game.

'I can't say I'm happy because it's not our limit, in fact, I don't know what our limit is, but it's definitely better than today, we could have scored more goals, we could have kept a clean sheet, but we made a mistake in one part and we had to win 2-1.

"But one thing I have to say is that I'm very happy to see the mentality and fighting spirit of my players in the game, we are Argentina, proud Pampas Eagles, we should soar, we should be ferocious, we should be fearful, we didn't do well enough at this point before, but from now on we need to do it well!"

A victory, what Maradona says now, the Argentine media will tout, at this moment, he is the god of Argentine football, but football is cruel, once Maradona loses, he will be completely pulled off the altar, just like Capello, there is no mercy to talk about.

But in the hotel that night, Mourinho gave Maradona a failing rating for his first game!

........................ "Frankly, Diego, if you want to give points, you only have five points at most, Uruguay is even worse, only three points, so they lost, maybe because of the intensity of the two games, Uruguay has a problem with fitness, the performance is very unpositive, and in this regard, Argentina is doing a little better. ”

Mourinho did not hesitate to give his own assessment.

Maradona didn't think it was angry at all, after all, he had just taken over the Argentine national team, and even coached only one day of training, held a tactical meeting, and then started playing, so to speak, this game has little to do with him.

'I found out in training that the midfield was a bit inflexible and I wanted to try a player other than Riquelme! Maradona said Riquelme was arguably the most questioned player in the Basilet national team, and it was understandable that Maradona wanted to take him.

"That's right, judging from the field, Riquelme seems to be very slow, compared with the fast-paced attack and defense of the Argentine midfield, his slowness has become very deadly, the trident you arranged in this game is Tevez, Aguero and Messi, the three players are all small and fast players, but Riquelme is slow, and the advantage of the three players is completely lost!"

Cassel was very proficient in tactics, and as soon as he analyzed it, he immediately caught Maradona's eye.

Riquelme is the kind of player who demands that his teammates work with him, and he is a very classical midfielder, and the most important characteristics of this classical midfielder are that they are very accurate in passing, very good at reading the game, and they are very good at footwork, but they often need time and often need to think.

However, in modern football, which is increasingly emphasizing efficiency, it is more important to cooperate with the almost industrial process, rather than a flash of inspiration after careful consideration, so modern football is increasingly devoid of the position of classical midfielder.

The most direct example comes from the Red Rebels, the team's academy has been cultivating their wall-hitting coordination, triangle coordination, and large diamond passing coordination from a very young age, and the players have grown up in this kind of cooperation since childhood, and then they are proficient in this kind of passing to almost instinct, so that when they get to the field, they don't have to think about how to pass and how to catch.

But Riquelme is the kind of classical midfielder who needs to give them time and space to think on the pitch, maybe they can pass a sharp and precise pass after thinking, but the current football defense system will not give him the opportunity to think like this at all.

The other thing is that Riquelme's off-ball movement is actually very poor, which is why some people say that he is slow and has a slow pace, and that he likes his teammates to run around him rather than him running around them, which creates two football mindsets.

It's hard to say who's right and who's wrong, but Riquelme's stubbornness makes him a poor mix in Europe, and if he can change himself, or if he drops back to midfield, he can be Pirlo, but he himself almost never thinks about defending or changing himself, which blocks his development in Europe.

Xiao Yu's previous life, Riquelme's most beautiful years, in Villarreal, Pellegrini slowed down the overall rhythm of the team, controlled the game, and gave Riquelme time to think; Pekerman's Argentina were similarly in control of the game, giving Riquelme time to think.

As a result, both Villarreal and Argentina seem to be slow!

In terms of personal speed and rhythm alone, Riquelme may not lose to Zidane, but one reason why he could not achieve Zidane's achievements is that he grew up in Argentina, which led the surname, and Zidane grew up in rigorous Europe, and this gap makes Zidane adapt better, think less, and be more in line with the development of modern football.

Today's football is no longer like before, revolving around a player, and today's football is more about teamwork and assembly-line cooperation, so everyone feels that today's football is increasingly lacking in the supernatural talents of Maradona, Pele, Zidane and others.

It's not that there are no such talented geniuses, such as Xiao Xiaoluo, such as Messi, such as Kaka, who said that they must be inferior to Maradona and others? But the problem is that their growth model is obviously not following the growth process of Maradona and others, and if they want to survive, they must make themselves a member of the assembly line.

This kind of football is getting faster and more efficient, but it can no longer produce the genius of classical football!

…………………… Maradona had debated with Mourinho and others when he was in Manchester, and in the end he had to accept this fact, and now he is facing this problem again.

Riquelme is a genius, there is no denying it, but today's football world can't afford a genius like him!

If you want Riquelme, Argentina will have to adapt to him, but that is too risky, and once Riquelme is finished, Argentina will also be finished!

Don't Riquelme, restructure Argentina's attacking combination, that may be able to break down!

'Palacio is a very good libero up front, he's also a bit of a drop back at the moment at AC Milan, Tasotti wants him to take on some of the playmaking responsibilities, and he has a good relationship with Andrea Pirlo at AC Milan and can be Argentina's front field commander.

Mourinho thought for a moment and gave his advice to Maradona, Palacio has always been a player that Mourinho admires very much, he is very comprehensive in the front, can break through, can organize, and can also cut forward to score, is the standard-bearer of AC Milan.

"With Messi, Aguero and Tevez in front of them, plus a Palacio, Argentina's attack is absolutely sharp, but they have to coordinate their respective roles."

The best way is to directly imitate the Red Rebels, so that Messi can get more freedom on the right side, can cut horizontally, can cut inside, can cut forward, which is equivalent to the free man in the right half of the front, which can also play Messi's biggest characteristics, both goals, assists, and share a certain amount of organizational pressure.

Aguero is characterized by his scoring ability in the back row, he has played a false number 9 this season, and his performance is very eye-catching, and his cooperation with Messi is also very tacit, this combination can be transplanted to the Argentine national team.

As for the left side, Tevez needs to be transformed, Palacio can play, Di Maria of the Red Rebels can also play, Maradona still has a lot of options, of course, in the details, the Red Rebels' offensive combination must not be copied.

"In the double midfield position, Mascherano is an unshakable player, without him, Argentina's squad will be unbalanced, but Argentina lacks a playmaker, in this game, Cambiaso's performance is average, he has lost the spirit of Redondo II back then, but it is De Roisden's Gago, who has been very eye-catching recently, and can try."

Nowadays, football is more and more emphasizing positional coordination, so the classical forward has no room to survive, but there is a very serious sequelae of positional coordination, that is, the conversion of offense and defense.

But if anyone who watches the game has studied it carefully, they will definitely find that most of the goals conceded are lost at the moment after the transition between attack and defense, that is to say, at the moment of the transition between attack and defense, it is the time when the ability of a team is really tested, and at the same time, this time is also the most consuming of the team's physical energy.

Why were the Red Rebels eliminated by Barcelona last season as soon as Cesc Fabregas was inaccurate?

Fabregas is the one who controls the role of the Red Rebels' tactical system in the transition between attack and defense, and he loses his function, and the Red Rebels, a big machine, also loses their function, which causes the Red Rebels to lose their attack.

Even now, Cesc Fabregas is still not as effective as Beckham at the moment of switching between attack and defence, but Mourinho will use the rest of the team to make up for this shortcoming, which is useful against weak teams, but against strong teams, a bad one can easily be blown up.

Of course, as Fabregas grows, he will fill that gap as his abilities improve, but that will take time!

Geniuses don't happen overnight, and it takes time!

'At the back, right-back is a problem, Zanetti is old, Odamendi of De Roisden can give it a try, Heinze is better at playing on the left, he can't play at centre-back, Samuel is better than him, Demichelis is barely suitable. Jose Mourinho was the most unhappy with Argentina's centre-back.

The reason is simple, Argentina rarely see tall and strong central defenders, which makes Argentina's defense on the high ball always seem passive, which is very much to Mourinho's taste, he likes the combination of Terry's tall and strong type, plus Curtis's speed and agility.

Except for a small flaw in the backline, Argentina can still organize a big hand, like a forward midfielder, Pastore is also a very suitable candidate, he can play as a midfielder, Palacio went to the left side, which is not impossible.

However, it can be seen that whether it is Mourinho, Cassel, or Maradona, they are not very kind to Riquelme, after all, it is really difficult for this special talented star to be entrusted with a heavy responsibility.

Maybe he was a genius, but he was born at the wrong time, if he was born 10 years earlier, then he would have become the brightest star on the planet, but he was 10 years late, which created the tragedy he is today.

But so what?

The world of football has never been so cruel!

And on this night, Maradona and Mourinho talked all night, just as Mourinho was going to return to Manchester the next day, and now he is also jet lag, just in time to have a good chat with Maradona.

Judging from the expression of His Royal Highness the Football King on the second day, he gained a lot from this night, after all, his coaching philosophy originated from the Red Rebels, and Mourinho and Cassel were the creators of the Red Rebels' tactical system, so they could naturally give Maradona a lot of advice.

There is no doubt about the strength of the players of the Argentine national team, and now it depends on whether they can adapt to the new tactics brought by Maradona, and whether Maradona can recast the soul and will of the Argentine national team as he wishes.

For this point, the South American World Cup qualifiers are just a small test, and the South Africa World Cup is the stage!
