8 All Attack and Defend (B)
ps: Ask for tickets and collect!
"A lot of people think that the founder of the all-attack and all-defense is Michels, but I don't think so, he was deeply influenced by Jack Reynolds, and then after he retired, he took the strengths of many schools and blended them into a football philosophy, so he is great because he is the master of things, he stands on the shoulders of Jack Reynolds and explores a wider world!"
"Well said! Jack Reynolds, who few people remember now, was the first to establish the Ajax academy when he was in charge of Ajax, and attacking football, speed and the unity of youth and senior style are all quoted by Michels. ”
Paul Byer was amazed, he didn't expect that Yang Cheng would remember Jack Reynolds, an Englishman who created a glorious era in Ajax in the twenties and thirties of the 20th century.
"The so-called all-offense and all-defense is actually a football concept, the basis of this concept is the overall cooperation, once there is no overall cooperation, the all-attack and all-defense is equivalent to a castle in the air, everything is out of reach!"
"That's right, so I disdain those guys who comment on the obsolescence of all offense and defense all day long, they all just simply and superficially believe that all offense and defense is to advance and retreat together, but I don't know, the core concept of all offense and defense is freedom, not constraint!" Paul Beyer agrees with Yang Cheng.
"That can also be seen as freedom under constraints!" Yang Cheng has always believed that on the football field, freedom and restraint do not conflict, the key is to see how to achieve balance, just like controlling the ball and controlling space, they are both ends of the scale, if you can make this balance in balance, then everything can be integrated.
But if you want to do this, it is very difficult, at least there are few famous marshals in ancient and modern China and abroad who can do it!
Paul Beyer was very excited, obviously in Chemnitz, there are very few people who can communicate with him like this, which makes him very excited, "You just said that the emergence of all-attack and all-defense has made a huge change in football skills and tactics, are you referring to the refinement of positions?" ”
Yang Cheng nodded immediately, but he was admiring in his heart, Tim Hank was right, Paul Byer did have a wealth of tactical knowledge, at least from his forward-looking words.
In 1995, there weren't many people who could predict the refinement of the pitch position!
The midfielder has evolved into a forward midfielder, a back midfielder and a traditional midfielder, but the front midfield is divided into a classical midfielder, a modern midfielder, etc., if you look at the technical characteristics, it can be divided into an organizational front midfielder and an attacking forward midfielder inserted in the back row, and the back midfield can be divided into a defensive back and an organizational retreat back midfield, of course, there are more comprehensive back types, such as Redondo and Guardiola in today's football.
In addition, there are the types of strikers, the transformation of wing players, etc., if you analyze carefully, it is not difficult to find that the position on the football field is becoming more and more refined, but what about after the real refinement to the extreme?
The stadium is just a little bigger, and there may be a few more lines between the three lines, but there will always be a day when the refinement is extreme, so how to divide the division of football at this time?
"Blur the position, dilute the division of labor in the targeted position, begin to pay attention to the interspersed cooperation between the players, and allow the players to bear different responsibilities according to different positions on the field, so in this case, the back to the front position, it is natural to assume the responsibility of the front waist, the fullback to the position of the fullback, naturally plug in the breakthrough, participate in the attack!"
Paul Baier was completely shocked by Yang Cheng's words, because he had only thought about the refinement of the position, but he had never thought about what would happen after the refinement was extreme, because in his opinion, it was too long and too far away.
However, Yang Cheng knows very well that with the advent of the information age, everything in the world is accelerating, and football skills and tactics are the same, so in the next ten years, the position of football will be refined, but in the next decade, the position of football will be refined to the extreme, and the position will begin to be blurred.
The reason why he is so sure is because Yang Cheng realized before crossing that the winger is backfooted, the fullback is inserted forward to play the role of a winger, and the tactics of pseudo-forward, pseudo-winger, and no-striker are ...... Isn't the tactical root of all this the limitation of blurring the position?
Everyone can imagine that when a team of 10 players except the goalkeeper is playing on the field, the central defender can become a striker at any time, the full-back can become a winger at any time, the striker is playing the role of a defender at any time, and every player on the field can freely switch the roles that the team needs them to play most at that time according to the situation on the field, how strong should such a team be?
And that's all offense and all defense!
It is precisely because of this that even though Barcelona reached its peak in 2011, Yang Cheng always believes that this team may be great, but it is not great enough to play the ultimate football, because they have not even played the ultimate in attack and defense!
At best, they're just very close to going all-out!
Of course, with the progress of the times, after all-out offense and defense, how football will develop, Yang Cheng doesn't know, and he can't guess!
But at this moment, Paul Beyer was completely shocked by Yang Cheng's forward-looking, even cross-era statement, especially when he delved into it, he had to admit that when the position was blurred, and the players on the field evolved their responsibilities according to the situation on the field, that kind of team would be the strongest.
"But will it be possible to identify such a player?" Paul Baier wondered.
If you want to play the all-offense and all-defense football that Yang Cheng said, how high should the requirements be for the players?
"The times create heroes, not now, but in a few years, with the maturity of football tactics, with the professional coaches' understanding and mastery of football tactics such as all-attack and defense, the trained players will naturally begin to develop in this direction, but at that time, geniuses like Pele and Maradona will be difficult to reproduce!"
Once football enters the overall era, then the individual play of the stars will be limited, and there will still be superstars in football at that time, but they will be superstars who will play their own strength under the premise of the overall performance of the team, rather than these superheroes who single-handedly challenge the opponent's entire backline.
Paul Bayer couldn't help but look at Yang Cheng with joy and sincerity, although he was young, he had extraordinary knowledge, especially the understanding and foresight of football skills and tactics, even Paul Bayer was ashamed of himself.
It was also at this moment that Paul Beyer discovered that Chemnitz simply could not accommodate Yang Cheng, perhaps he came here just to find a pedal, a pedal that would allow him to completely enter the inner circle of football, and once he achieved such a jump, he would not hesitate to leave Chemnitz and embark on the road to find his ideal football.
"I now finally understand why you're asking your players to switch positions and train on alignments so often!" After this conversation, Paul Bair was able to figure out some doubts that he didn't understand before.
Positional training is equivalent to allowing players to familiarize themselves with the pressures and difficulties faced in different positions, which can not only promote the tacit understanding and cooperation between players, but also improve their multi-position attributes, so that they can deal with this situation more calmly in the future.
To put it bluntly, a very important requirement for players to blur positions is multi-faceted, familiarity with different positions!
The alignment training is to make the striker and the central defender against each other, the full-back and the full-back against each other, etc., all of which are to help the players better cope with the situation on the field and better improve their confrontation ability.
"By the way, can you tell me who your favorite player is in Chemnitz?" Paul Baier suddenly wanted to know if Yang Cheng's vision was the same as his.
"Barak!" Yang Cheng replied with a smile.
"How high can you go?"
"I don't know, maybe the world's top, maybe ......" Yang Cheng really doesn't know, the potential of players will change, even in the super coach assistance system, after all, everyone has infinite possibilities, and he can't guarantee what kind of changes his arrival will bring to Ballack.
However, he will not give up on training Barak, he wants to cultivate Barak in his own way!
Fortunately, after a conversation a few nights ago, Barak also expressed his confidence in Yang Cheng, and now Yang Cheng has asked Tim Hank to raise a higher problem for Barak in training, diamond running!
Many people think that the triangle tactic is the core tactic of football, but the triangle also has drawbacks, that is, the control of the area, and the diamond looks like two triangles, one positive and one negative, which is worth studying, and Yang Cheng clearly knows that the diamond is more flexible than the triangle for the development and control of the field space.
The triangle run is already very unbearable, and the diamond run is even more complicated, with a higher level of requirements for the player's vision and ability to read the game, but Yang Cheng believes that Ballack will be up to the task.
However, although the diamond running position is very helpful to the team's skills and tactics, it is destined not to be the protagonist who appears in the TV camera, because the TV broadcast is always chasing the ball, but the person in the diamond running position is deviated from the ball.
Of course, Yang Cheng set the position for Ballack in the midfield, if he really develops, it will definitely not be too low-key, after all, Yang Cheng's purpose is to maximize his offensive potential, but also to maintain his strong impact in the midfield, as well as the offensive ability in the back row, and even his defensive ability in the frontcourt.
That's why, Yang Cheng promised Barak that night that he would develop the tactics of the second team of Chemnitz around him!
"However, I have a gut feeling that he was born to be the core material!" Yang Cheng finally added with a smile.
Paul Byer was stunned for a moment, but soon smiled and nodded, obviously acknowledging Yang Cheng's judgment.
