For a team, Yang Cheng always believes that maintaining competition is the best way to maintain combat effectiveness!

This season, Inter Milan's front is only in the league, and the main squad is in good shape, so the personnel changes and rotation are certainly relatively small, and young people like Recoba and Pirlo can only wait until players are injured or come on as substitutes.

In this case, Yang Cheng paid special attention to their mood swings, especially when it was rumored that the team would bring in Totti, the emotions of Recoba and Pirlo were very concerning, so Yang Cheng asked them to come separately, ready to encourage them, and at the same time give them a reassurance.

"Alvaro, so far this season you have made 13 appearances, scored two goals and had one assist, mostly as a substitute, and you have done well!" Yang Cheng opened the topic with a smile.

Recoba looked at Yang Cheng a little depressed, not knowing what the head coach wanted to say.

"I see you've not been in a lot of mood in training lately, do you have any ideas?" Yang Cheng spread his hands, "You know my rules, speak freely!" ”

Yang Cheng's rule is that players can come to him to talk to him if they have any questions, rather than venting through the media or in training.

"Boss, I heard our team is going to buy Totti?" Recoba hesitated and asked.

He has been a substitute for Baggio this season, but Pirlo, a panacea in the middle of the midfield, has often been replaced by a midfielder, and although Recoba also plays as a striker, he feels that he has a lot of competition in the team, and if Totti is brought in at this time, he does not see any hope at all.

Yang Cheng smiled slightly, "I can assure you, fake!" ”

Recoba was stunned for a moment, and didn't react for a while.

"I've told you before that I'm going to focus on you in training, I'm delivering on my promises, but honestly, I'm not very happy with your performance, especially when you are training in terms of fitness, you know? The lab rates you even lower than Baggio! ”

Recoba is the typical South American mentality, who doesn't like physical training, doesn't like defending, doesn't like running and harassing, but his technique and strength are very obvious, and that is his almost unbeatable left foot.

If someone asks, who is the player with the highest goal percentage in the Inter Milan team?

Ronaldo? Fanny?

Wrong, it's Recoba!

This guy's shooting ability is really good, which comes directly from the feeling he has with the ball, and he naturally knows how to use power and handle the parts, so his shooting is really good, even more than Ronaldo and Ruud van Nistelrooy, and his shot can be completed without a run-up, which is full of secrecy.

Anyone who has to see Recoba's shots from the corner will prove it!

Yang Cheng knows very well that this guy is well trained and does not lose to Baggio, but the key is that some of his personalities and characteristics are the same as Denilson's back then.

"In the future, football will pay more and more attention to pressing, especially in the area closer to the opponent's penalty area, the opponent will do everything to kill you, and even foul you with heavy feet, these are very normal means!"

Recoba knew what Yang Cheng said in his heart, and he knew very well that Yang Cheng said this to warn him that if he couldn't satisfy Yang Cheng physically, Yang Cheng wouldn't let him get too many opportunities.

Thinking of this, Recoba nodded, "I know how to do it, chief!" ”

"Good!" Yang Cheng praised, but he was thinking in his heart that his boiling eagle during this period of time had finally come to fruition.

The 23-year-old Recoba is undoubtedly better carved, and he is looking forward to what kind of player Recoba will be when he is carved, and can he replace Baggio?

"Also, Mr. Chris Schmidt and I would like you to have a dental check-up!"

"Dental exam?" Recoba was a little puzzled.

"Yes!" Yang Cheng shook a book on his desk, the title of which was called "Enemies in the Mouth", "This is a book about teeth, which was recommended to me by Chris, but ...... Seriously, I'm confused! Yang Cheng laughed self-deprecatingly, he really couldn't stand the things he wasn't interested in. ,

Recoba, on the other hand, felt that his boss was very honest and easy to talk to and get close to.

"There are a lot of things about teeth, including mentions, many of the root causes of muscle and tendon injuries are in the teeth, such as some inflammation, which can be solved in the teeth!"

Yang Cheng turned the page on one of the pages, "Here are examples, he said, the appearance of granulation tumors may induce heart and muscle diseases; Dental deformities such as wisdom teeth can affect breathing and even cause hernias, knee pain, muscle inflammation, etc., and some teeth with tenacious masseter strength can make people more able to resist strong body impacts......"

For the first two, Yang Cheng is not an expert who doesn't understand, but he can understand the latter one, because when the body collides, he generally grits his teeth, and if the masseter muscle strength is not enough at this time, he will inevitably be deflated, resulting in a loss when the body collides.

Putting down the book, Yang Cheng handed it directly to Recoba, "I heard that before the World Cup in France, the French team collectively checked their teeth, and at present, in F1, NBA and many other events, athletes also list dental examination as a mandatory item. ”

"So we're going to arrange for the players to have a dental check-up next, and you're the key!"

Yang Cheng had heard of it in his previous life, and the Milan Sports Newspaper broke the news that the reason for Recoba's frequent injuries had a lot to do with his teeth, which was said to have pressed on the nerves.

So Yang Cheng asked Chris Schmidt and the laboratory to pay attention to this aspect before, and it happened that the latter also felt that teeth were very important, so he studied them deeply, which led to this conversation.

And Yang Cheng's last sentence, you are the key, and it makes Recoba's heart warm and feels the attention of the head coach to him.

Young people are always easy to get excited by a little stimulation!

"I know, boss, I'll do my best!" Recoba resolutely agreed.

"Hmm!" Yang Cheng is quite satisfied with the attitude of the Chinese boy.

After sending Recoba away, it wasn't long before Pirlo arrived.

The talented player, hailed by Italian football as Baggio's successor, is also in an awkward position at Inter Milan.

It stands to reason that he is famous for being a striker, but after Yang Cheng took office, he communicated with Pirlo many times, signaling that his position should not be in the striker, but in the midfield, and even he felt that Pirlo could be further back.

Why?

It's like now the whole world is admiring Beckham and hyping Beckham, is it just because he is handsome?

No, in the world of football, Beckham is definitely not the most handsome, but his fame comes more from his importance in this Manchester United team!

The kind of accurate deep long pass of more than 30 meters,

It is easy to tear apart the opponent's defence, and all the striker needs to do is tacit movement and grasp the opportunity.

This is almost irreplaceable for a team!

One of the obvious characteristics of Inter's current midfield is that there is more pressing, but not enough variation.

The previous loss to Fiorentina was because Trapattoni prevented Inter Milan's attack, and if Fiorentina can do it, then other teams can do the same, and then Inter Milan's attack will no longer work.

Therefore, Yang Cheng must bring variables to Inter Milan's attack.

A perfect midfielder must have a passing arrangement, a dribble forward, a deep attack, a back row insertion and the protection of the backline.

Inter Milan have done a good job of protecting the backline, with Emerson and Lucio both up to the task, with Nedved in the back and Van Bommel in the back.

Emerson is responsible for the passing arrangement, but in terms of advancing with the ball and attacking in depth, Inter Milan seems to be relatively lacking, because the team lacks such a player.

At Kaiserslautern, it was Denilson who drove the ball and Veron's mid-length ball in the deep attack, so it could compensate for that, but Inter did not. ,

Yang Cheng has an idea, that is, let Pirlo play in the midfield, and then assist a player with excellent short passing ability, after the two cooperate tacitly, Inter Milan's midfield has become long, medium and short three types of ball can be switched at will, and Pirlo's skills are good, as long as the short pass player can form a tacit understanding with him, it is not difficult for the two to cooperate with the ball in the midfield.

This completely solves the problem of insufficient changes in Inter Milan's midfield, and at the same time can make Inter Milan's midfield stronger and more varied, so that the opponent is unguardable, unless, the iron bucket formation!

But the Iron Bucket Array is a problem all over the world, and no one can overcome it!

It can be said that the most ideal Inter midfielder sketched by Yang Cheng in his mind is Emerson dragging behind, Pirlo and a short pass player in the middle, and a No. 9 and a half or No. 10 player playing in the front, forming a small diamond shape in the midfield, with Ruud van Nistoy and Ronaldo in front.

It's a bit like a small diamond shape of 442, but in fact, Lucio's forward insertion, as well as the advancement of the two midfielders and the pressing and running of the front, will disrupt the whole set of tactics, so strictly speaking, there is no fixed positioning and coordination.

In terms of functional distribution, Emerson is to comb the midfield, protect the backline, and pass scheduling, his passing is more horizontal, once he passes the vertical ball, it means that the team wants to attack, and the speed must be fast.

The two midfielders played with deep passes and advances, Pirlo with long passes and the other player with short passes, and the two could make Inter's midfield more unpredictable.

As for the front midfield, Yang Cheng is most interested in Nedved, his physical fitness and wide range of running, can reduce the pressure on the two forwards, so that they can be more involved in the attack, and his back row is definitely a big weapon, plus his passing ability is not bad, as long as the run-in is good, it can completely form a reverse run with the two forwards.

Yang Cheng directly explained his thoughts to Pirlo, and then gave him examples of AC Milan's Albertini, Real Madrid's Redondo, and Barcelona's Pep Guardiola, etc., but at the same time he also mentioned Pirlo's uniqueness, he will not be just a midfielder, but a more complex new positional function.

Pirlo didn't figure out the manager's thoughts for a while, but he could understand from Yang Cheng's words that Yang Cheng was optimistic about this set of tactics and attached great importance to him, which made him feel that his prospects at Inter Milan were still worth looking forward to, especially under Yang Cheng.

So at the end of the conversation, he expressed his willingness to try hard to try the new position that Yang Cheng gave him, and at the same time watched some videos of Albertini and others, hoping to better understand Yang Cheng's requirements for him.

And Yang Cheng is also very frank, the current trident and midfield combination is very reasonable, Pirlo does not have the strength to challenge these players, so he is a substitute, but if he can quickly improve himself, then he is a decisive winning chess piece in Yang Cheng's tactical map!

………….

…………

"Whew!" After sending Pirlo away, Yang Cheng sat back in his office chair a little tiredly.

To treat this kind of young general, first of all, we must not let them feel that they have lost hope, and we must continue to give them hope, but it is not an ethereal hope, but something substantial, so that they can see and touch it.

In this way, they will continue to keep the momentum going.

Yang Cheng can be said to tell them very frankly this time,

This text was provided by Sailing Anonymous

What he asked of them, and at the same time gave them a promise, if they couldn't fight like this, then he really had no choice.

After breathing a sigh of relief, Yang Cheng turned on the monitor on the desktop and opened several videos transmitted by Paul Beyer.

It's all about the players in Inter Milan's academy, including several players that Yang Cheng focuses on.

First of all, the centre-back, Yang Cheng is focusing on Ferrari, who has been on loan at Bari this season.

The centre-back, who joined from SPAL Ferrara in the Italian League in '97, has performed very well in Bari, and Yang Cheng also knows that this player is the captain of Parma later and has excellent defensive ability, but he has been loaned out by Inter Milan for the last three seasons. ,

Yang Cheng is never very satisfied with this kind of loan, because the other party may not be willing to cultivate players for you, even if they urgently need it, they can't be wholeheartedly, but it is better to have another way of co-ownership.

Yang Cheng watched Ferrari's performance in the past few seasons, and secretly made a decision in his heart that he planned to keep him in the team next season, and it was no problem to play as a substitute to see if there was a chance to improve.

Bergomi is 36 years old, and his performance in the early part of the season was eye-catching, and he was selected for the best team of the round many times, but in the second half, Blanco began to exert his strength, and the old captain was a little more than enough.

The old captain is down, Yang Cheng plans to let Ferrari play as a substitute central defender, after all, Inter Milan has been determined to fight on three lines next season, although there are Nesta, Lucio, Blanco and Silvestre, but Blanco is not young, and after the season, he will have to look at the situation and decide whether to stay in the team.

In addition, there is a youth academy player named Giovanni Pasquale, this player used to play the main team in Inter Milan in his previous life, and is now 18 years old, playing the position of left wingback, from the Juventus academy, 97 years to the Italian League C 2 Vercelli, 98 years to Inter Milan, the performance is very good, Yang Cheng wants to give him more opportunities to train with the first team.

There is also a striker Mohamed Caron, that is, the striker who later played the main role in Inter Milan and joined the Chinese Super League around 2010, he has also been loaned out by Inter Milan for many years to experience, and his performance is good, and he has scored goals in Reggina one after another this season, fast, impactful, good ball sense, tactical execution and defensive awareness are also very satisfying.

He has scored seven goals in Reggina so far, and is expected to reach double figures at the end of the season, which is really good for a 20-year-old striker!

Yang Cheng's current idea is to inspect the youth players, pick out the team's suitable use, and keep them, and some other potential players are released to exercise as much as possible, but not in the form of loan, but in the way of joint ownership, if they are used together in the future, they will be redeemed, so that the other party will be more concerned.

For a traverser, Yang Cheng knows very well that the so-called elite youth training has always been an image project.

In a giant team, there are very few who can really use all the academy players in the academy, but once a few are promoted, the outside is immediately overwhelmingly praised, giving people a feeling that the academy is full of talents.

Now Yang Cheng is going to do such a thing.

But he has a premise that these players can really get a chance in the team and have the quality to compete with the main players, otherwise he wouldn't do that.

After completing these things, Yang Cheng went to the training ground.

The weekend's opponent is Parma, and Inter Milan are under a lot of pressure away from home, after all, the current quality of this team is not trivial.

Although Inter Milan now occupies the top spot, the points are the same as Juventus, plus the teams behind Lazio, AC Milan and other teams are biting very tightly, as long as Inter Milan is not careful, it may be overtaken at any time.

AC Milan's opponents in this round are at home to Bari, Lazio away to Torino, Juventus away to Udinese and Roma to host Venezia.

And on February 5, in the first game, Fiorentina drew 2:2 away to Verona, Trapattoni's team has really average performance this season, although Barty is very strong, but Fiorentina's overall combat effectiveness is not good, and it is currently behind the first army in the standings, the possibility of winning the championship is already very small, the Champions League is also difficult, and even whether it can reach the League Cup next season is a problem.

As a result, the outside world's bombardment of Trapattoni has reached a high point, especially the Fiorentina fans, who have begun to threaten Trapattoni to step down, and only the club's owner, Cecchi Gori, still shows his trust.

However, the players are already starting to panic, believing that this summer in Fiorentina will be a turbulent summer...... ）
