Chapter 31: Training Arranged by Charlotte

After recruiting three young players with good talents, and then successfully persuading Jason Dodd to let Chambers play as a full-back, Charlotte was in a very good mood, almost humming a ditty and leaving the Staplewood base.

Of course, Charlotte doesn’t know that young players often change positions to play, because many players don’t even know what position they are most suitable for when they are not finalized, so it is very normal for young players to change positions. of,

To give a simple example, Danny Rose, who was recruited by Charlotte from Tottenham Hotspur, is a typical one. He can play forward, winger, midfielder, central midfielder, full-back and full-back at the same time. , the only things he can't play are defensive midfielders, central defenders and goalkeepers.
This is why Jason Dodd happily changed Chambers to play as a full-back. This is not a difficult thing for Jason Dodd at all.Even without Charlotte's proposal today, maybe in one or two years, Jason Dodd would take the initiative to let the opponent change to other positions if he felt that Chambers's ability in the position of winger was limited.

And now that Charlotte corrected him in advance, it also gave Chambers a great opportunity. At least he avoided detours for two years.And Charlotte also left a very good impression on Jason Dodd, at least after Chambers began to show his talent in the guard position, Jason Dodd really thought that Charlotte had seen it The youth team has a lot of videos and games, so they value Southampton's youth training very much.

And in fact?But the process is not important, what is important is that Charlotte really values ​​the Saints' youth training very much.

It’s just that Charlotte and Jason Dodd never imagined that after a few years, everyone called Charlotte the holy father on the green field, and had the magical ability to turn decay into magic in training young players. Started by Burth and Danny Rose.

The three youth players who were promoted to the first team on the second day were led by captain Dean Hammond to familiarize themselves with the locker room and teammates of the first team. For the three rookies, some of these players were idols in their hearts. is the goal of their struggle.

The high-ranking first-team seniors in the past have now become his teammates. This kind of excitement and excitement is almost written on his face.

In fact, the most popular youth team players in the first team are not the captain Dean Hammond or the vice-captain Jose Fonte, and it is not the big center Ricky Lambert who is attacking the team. But the third captain Adam Lallana.This is the big brother who is rooted and young. He came out of the Southampton youth training camp and is now the absolute core of the team, and he is only 23 years old. His cheerful and friendly personality and excellent skills are naturally the idol of young players.

Charlotte looked at the three rookies around Adam Lallana on the training ground asking questions and "learning from the experience" and smiled. The most suitable captain in his mind was actually Lallana. He knew the future prospects of this player Yes, otherwise he would not be favored by Liverpool and perform well.

And Dean Hammond is still too short-sighted in the final analysis. Maybe he is a very good player in the British Championship, but if the team is upgraded to the Premier League, then he can only be regarded as an ordinary substitute.

Considering that he sold the No. [-] center in his first shot, and then put the giant Jonathan Ford into the "cold palace", in order to avoid the team's enthusiasm, he did not directly change the captain, but adopted last season. The team's captain and vice-captain personnel just gave Lallana the position of the third captain, which was not in the team, and it can be regarded as laying a foundation for the other party to be the captain.

"Okay, brothers, a day full of hope has begun again. Let's welcome the sunrise of the new day with enthusiasm!" Charlotte clapped her hands, announcing the start of a new day of training.

"Oh hell."

"The hard days have begun again." The players pretended to be very depressed and weak.

"By the way, I will show the first-team training methods to three rookies who are about the same level as me." Charlotte said with a smile.

"Oh"

"Rookies, get ready for hell!! Haha" the old fritters of the first team followed suit.

The atmosphere in the Southampton team is very good now, because Charlotte doesn't have any airs of the head coach, so they are very relaxed. At the same time, Charlotte is also very considerate of them, and almost every player has arranged detailed training plans and targeted training. sexual goals.

Of course, in the eyes of the players, this plan is very scientific and at the same time very suitable for them, so they think that this is because the new head coach Charlotte has spent a lot of painstaking efforts and energy on them.

As everyone knows, Charlotte, who has known the future development trend of these guys for a long time, came up with such a training plan, which is not like playing.

Charlotte's training sessions are arranged with the current trend of 10 minutes of training time per class. This is to let the players develop the habit of playing games for 10 minutes from the usual time, so that they can arrange their own physical distribution, and gradually Form a habit.

In the warm-up before the training session, in addition to no one running around the track with the ball under their feet, there is also Barcelona's famous "sliding monkey".

He surrounded the city with nine people in a circle, and the nine passed the ball to each other, and then the two pressed in the circle. If the ball passed by the pressing player was blocked, the pressing player and the player who missed the ball exchange.

This is a traditional monkey ride, but Charlotte changed the "monkey" from one person to two.However, Charlotte himself added some material, that is, each player's touch time cannot exceed one second, and at the same time, he cannot pass it to the two people next to him.Then the circle of nine people still keeps moving, and the general formation of the circle formed by nine people cannot be changed during the movement.

The benefit of this kind of training is that in addition to training the players' ability to pass and receive the ball, it also cultivates the players' ability to run and pass the ball without the ball. After all, this is not a static pass. The "opposite" player also moves.

These are what the former Adkins did not have, so the players feel very fresh, and even play quite smoothly as a game.
At the end of the training, the monkeys have to walk for half an hour, but the difference is that the two players who act as monkeys are offensive players, and even if they grab the ball, they can only continue to be "monkeys".Obviously this is an interesting way for him to cultivate the offensive players' ability to press, intercept and defend.

After all, Charlotte set the direction for the coaching staff from the very beginning. He just wanted to play pass-and-control tactics while also attacking and defending high-position press.Therefore, the ability to run without the ball and the full-court pressing and interception of offensive players are very important.

When in possession of the ball, Charlotte asked the players to think more about passing the ball in depth, and stretch the defense line through lateral scheduling when the opponent's defense is dense, instead of crossing and passing the ball toward the backcourt like Barcelona.For example, in a ball game, the final OPTA data showed that Barcelona's ball possession rate was 75%, the pass success rate was 90.00%, and [-] passes were made in two and a half minutes!

Is such data very powerful?But if you look at the video carefully, how many of them pass the ball towards the backcourt?The defensive midfielders, central defenders and goalkeepers have a very high turnover rate, but how many times do they have threatening passes?
So Charlotte asks his team not to pass the ball for the sake of passing the ball. In a more advanced sense, it is like playing chess and Go. It seems a simple step, but after careful consideration, every step is not simple. It has its meaning in it.

Of course, the current Southampton team will definitely not be able to reach that height, and there are not many teams in the world that can reach such a level.But this doesn't prevent Charlotte from having his lofty goals. Well, dreams are still necessary, what if they accidentally come true?
So now Charlotte is moving in this direction, not only laying the foundation for the players, but also accumulating their own training experience.

And in the future, no, from now on, the position and responsibility of the players have gradually begun to become blurred.
