967 The only enemy
At the Lion King Stadium, another classic goal of Xiao Luo was born!
Barb Break!
The whole stadium erupted in a tsunami of shocking cheers.
The camera lights of the photographer on the sidelines flickered, but they still couldn't compare with Xiao Luo, who seemed to be shining with gold at the moment!
Ronaldo rose from the ground and scurried towards the corner flag area under the stunned gaze of the Chelsea generals.
His teammates were full of surprise and their eyes were full of incredulity.
On the sidelines, Aldridge lowered his head and closed his eyes with an intoxicated smile, and pointed to the sky with his right hand.
If there really is a God in the world, he pointed to the sky to ask him the old man: Did you smile when you saw Xiao Luo playing football?
In the corner flag area where Xiao Luo ran to, there was a surging crowd in the nearby stands, and some fans turned over the stands and rushed to Xiao Luo, and actually knelt down and looked up at Xiao Luo with their arms outstretched and adoring with fascination!
"Ronaldinho! Ronaldinho! There are already a large number of fans in the stands chanting his name in unison, at this moment, Ronaldinho is like the king of this stadium, he is definitely one of the best players in the Millwall team this season, he was criticized a lot last season, and as Millwall's crazy attacking tactics have become more and more powerful this season, the right side of the attack has created more space for him to play, although the opponent is still mainly restricting him, but his teammates have created space for him to reduce pressure, Of course, this is also due to Sir Hall, who knows how to activate Ronaldinho and how to make this creative Brazilian magician omnipotent! ”
'Chelsea couldn't hold on for 20 minutes and Eriksen came here to play on the counter-attack. Everyone on the earth knows, however, the midfield is completely dominated by Millwall, and the attack on the right side is suppressed by Millwall, when it is time to counterattack, Johnson and Melchiott can't go up, and Duff who only relies on the left side is too clear, and Duff does nothing in front of the experienced Schneider. After Veron was deprecated. Chelsea didn't even have a single player with attacking power, and they eliminated Arsenal because Arsenal lacked the power to create a force in their positional battles, after compressing enough space. Arsenal's counter-attacking power plummeted. Chelsea also hit the counter-attack. Millimeters of luck tilted and Chelsea qualified, now. They were faced by opponents who were not at all of a level and seemed helpless, and Glen Johnson booked the worst player of the game with 15 minutes played, having no idea what he was doing in that position. ”
"Hehe, that's too harsh to say, you must know that there are still 4 months to go, this young man is only 20 years old, facing the world champion Ashley Cole, Ronaldinho, the runner-up of the Ballon d'Or for three consecutive years, he is just unlucky. Martin, I think it's Eriksen who is too rigid or unwilling to look down and copy the successful counter-attacking tactics used by Sir Hall in the national team, his two wing-backs are useless against the defence, and it looks like there are four players in front of the back line, but the actual effect is not comparable to the three midfielders. ”
Since the beginning of last season, many teams in England, not only in the Premier League, but also in the lower three leagues, many teams have averaged their strength, pragmatically adopted Aldridge's 4321 anti-counter formation that was successful in the World Cup, and their records have improved, or they have played countless teams that have exceeded expectations.
In the past, the defensive iron triangle was familiar, that is, double central defenders + single back, which is a basic defensive system that giants are not exempt from.
And Aldrich's 4321 forms an interlocking 3 overlapping "iron triangles" in the back line and the back waist line!
Left wing-back, left centre-back, left midfielder.
Left centre-back, right centre-back, central midfielder.
Right wing-back, right centre-back, right midfielder.
For example, if you have a Paul Scholes or Nedved who can take care of the defense, in the midfield, there is also a big triangle defensive system, with two back and left and right and a front midfield.
After honing and forming and generating team chemistry, the players are very closely connected, compressing the defense mainly in the fan-shaped area in front of the goal, compared with the four back four midfielders, especially the establishment of two full-backs, Aldridge's 43 defensive system, the defensive goal is more clear, and the combination of penetration and rib play in the restricted side is also very targeted.
In other words, they sacrificed the defense on the flanks of the midfield and the defense of the secondary threat area in exchange for the maximum compression of the opponent's attacking space in the danger zone, making the area where the threat shot was born airtight.
Just like today's Glen Johnson and Duff, they are involved in defense, they are still mainly on the wings, especially Glen Johnson, whenever he realizes that Rooneche Jr., his defense seems sluggish and slow, this is a collision of minds, because he will be afraid of losing position or clashes with teammates in the defensive area, when Roonew Jr. cuts, to the penalty area, it should be a fullback, to the front of the penalty area, it should be a midfielder.
It can be said that this is an inevitable product of the development of modern football.
In the future, there will not be a second full-back like Ryan Giggs in the standard sense.
We'll hear about so-and-so's new winger, full-back, but we won't hear about so-and-so supernova as a new generation of full-backs.
This is determined by the development of football, physical fitness represents the distance run, the area covered by the pitch, and the speed determines the rate of transition between attack and defence, and the midfield will no longer become difficult, like the English parallel midfielder 442 in the past, trying to occupy every piece of turf on the pitch and form an effective interception The concept will also go to the grave.
This change is why Aldridge has been successful in the past, and it is a point of success in his tactical lead, and at the end of his second season in charge of Millwall, the role of full-back has been completely separated from the main technical and tactical formations, leaving only Zài on the battlefield where the consciousness of young people is honed according to different situations during training.
The defensive concept that corresponds to limiting the opponent's triangle pass will not disappear, and that is the iron triangle system.
Now Millwall, when the opponent plays a whirlwind game, their defensive system is two iron triangles.
De Rossi recycles the penalty area as a central defender, with Alonso on the back line for the first time, and a full-back who returns to the defense, which is of course dangerous, but the opponent must first be able to play a very efficient counterattack, suppress Millwall in the transition between attack and defense, hit the attack to the front line at the first time, and form a situation where the number of attackers does not fall behind.
Since Millwall is an offensive football style, it must be an offensive instead of defensive!
Now it is Aldridge who maximizes the balance of attack and defense.
Compared with the three "iron triangle" defensive systems of extreme defense and counter-attack, Millwall can now put two "iron triangle" defensive systems on defense when pursuing all-round pressing offense, which is definitely the limit.
The outside world is just watching Millwall's changes, growth, progress, and the power of the new generation of wild lions.
Only Aldrich understands what he is doing now, and what is the ideal height that the third generation of mad lions can reach.
Before Millwall restarted, Aldrich suddenly turned back to Jensen and asked aloud, "Jensen, who is the enemy of an absolutely successful technical and tactical system?" ”
The Millwall coaching staff looked at each other, and everyone looked at Jenson, only to hear him smile and reply: "There is only one enemy: time!" ”
Aldridge laughed, and when he turned around, his eyes were fierce and his smile was cold.
What the third generation of wild lions pursued, and what Aldrich pursued, are two words.
No solution!
To further stimulate the ability to control the ball in the midfield and backfield, so that the team's 11 people have become the response point, at the same time, the variable of offensive acceleration is stored in Zài, and the creation of Zào force is stimulated, with Xiao Luo in the front, Henry, Larsson, Nedved in the speed impact, and the backfield is inserted by fullbacks as the hidden offensive point of the rear echelon.
On the pitch, their only enemy is space.
Off the pitch, their only enemy will be time.
Chelsea conceded the goal, fell behind, the generals were extremely unwilling, Duff forced a lonely end on the left side, even if the breakthrough was successful, it was difficult to link with Mutu and Hasselbaink in the front, the middle lacked a follow-up point, Geremi and Makelele did not dare to cross the half to participate in the attack, only dared to do some combing work in the midfield.
Aldridge gestured to Ronaldo on the sidelines, and Ronaldo immediately understood and switched positions with Nedved.
Glen Johnson was completely useless in just over 20 minutes, Ashley Cole's impact alone was enough to create pressure, and Nedved's response and surprise attack on the left became a nightmare for Chelsea.
In the 29th minute, Alonso passed the ball straight to the feet of Nedved, he went directly to the inside line to cut into the penalty area, Geremi protected the rib gap, Ronaldo did not press, Makelele closed back, to prevent Henry, who pulled out of the penalty area, and Nedved to form a combination.
Nedved passed the ball back, Ronaldo received the ball, and then picked the ball behind Terry in the penalty area, Nedved rushed forward and jumped high to head the ball when Terry was backwards and barely jumped, but unfortunately the angle was a little right, and Cudicini confiscated the ball.
'Nedved and Ronaldinho have started to work together again, and it is easy to cause confusion in the opposition defensively, because the two have different characteristics, create different threats, and require the opponent to concentrate and keep up with their rhythm, and it seems that it will be difficult for Chelsea to contain Millwall wreaking havoc in their half.
Aldridge was not discouraged when he saw that the attack was successful but did not score, and he gestured to Henry again, and Henry and Larsson also switched positions!
After a new tactical system that borders on madness takes shape, Millwall can fuse the tricks they were good at in the past into the new system, not doing this before, fearing that too many changes will cause chaos in themselves, only they are completely stable, and they can change whatever they want.
Aldrich smiled evilly, since the outside world is watching, let them see enough! (To be continued......)
