ball at foot

Deschamps certainly knows Benitez's tactics. Although he has not cooperated with Benitez, he has spent a year in Valencia after all and has many friends there.That guy's tactical ability is very strong, and that guy's head is not normal, it is those people's evaluation of their head coach.

This person who is called a genius by Bosque may really be a genius with a high IQ: a player who plays football, chooses high-energy physics as a major in college, and even got a master's degree. There is no such thing as a guy Absolute IQ is impossible.

Many people say that Valencia's style of play against Deportivo is the most scientific, but after observation, to Deschamps' surprise, Benitez's tactics are indeed very characteristic.The most surprising thing about him is not that he likes to use a set of fixed tactics, but that he is able to formulate tactics that specifically restrain opponents based on their opponent's characteristics.

If you take a closer look at his record in Valencia, you will know that against Real Madrid, he used a double-backed style of play, keeping Salgado and Carlos in the backcourt and defeating Real Madrid's strengths Become a weakness, and then easily kill Real Madrid.When playing against Barcelona, ​​he and Basara started a confrontation and directly beat Van Gaal to dismissal for the second time.When facing Lak, his style of play converged into a confrontation between the right flank and Laco's left flank.

What Deschamps doesn't know is that in next year's UEFA Champions League, his ability will be further recognized by the world: in the 04-05 season, Liverpool beat Juventus with muscle, and beat the tortoise. defeated Chelsea, and then came back against Milan in the final. At that time, Benitez's title of tactical master was recognized by the whole world. [

Now, although he played an extremely exciting game with Valencia in La Liga, the attention is still less.

But his tactical arrangement does have something to learn from.

"If Monaco wants to rely on defense to compete with Deportivo, it will be too difficult. After all, their strength is stronger than ours." In private, when discussing with Petit, Deschamps also thought about what to do , "But it might be a good idea for us to learn from Valencia. We can also let Giuly, Joey and Maicon form the best right wing to play against Deportivo and see who can beat who. gone."

"It's difficult. After all, their left flank is a product of meticulous craftsmanship. Our style of play is just a whim. How can we play against them? To me, it's better to honestly strengthen the defense on the right flank , paralyze their left flank, and then invest more attack power in the center and left flank, thus completely crushing them."

Petit didn’t quite agree with Deschamps’ statement, “I know you watched Valencia’s victory against Deportivo, and thought it was very beautiful and worth learning from. But Didier, you are not the Spaniard. After all, there is a gap between your tactical ability and guys like Benitez and Ancelotti. They can do that because they are good at tactical arrangements. In this respect, they can bully others wantonly. You don't have the confidence, don't do this kind of thing."

"I really can't compare them to the seriousness and detail arrangement of tactics." Deschamps himself is willing to admit his shortcomings, "but I don't think I can't do that. Their requirements are very detailed, sometimes Even if it is too detailed and rigid, it will obliterate some of the players' personal abilities. Isn't it good to let the players play to their strengths?"

Didier Deschamps' words are actually a judgment made because he has experienced many teams.

In Spain and Italy, as a coach, the biggest task is to arrange tactics and let players play in a certain way.In England, including some teams in France, the coaches pay more attention to the encouragement and motivation of the players. Two completely different football cultures have created two completely different coaching ideas.

Even until Capello entered the British national team many years later, the British media clamored that all coaches who talked about tactics were liars.And Mourinho, who entered Italy to coach Inter Milan at about the same time, was also unanimously regarded by the Italian media as a guy who didn't understand tactics and only knew how to put on airs.Neither of these two ideas is completely correct, and both have their merits.Deschamps knew that he could not do what Benitez and Ancelotti did, detailing the tactical arrangement to each individual's specific position and running distance, but he felt that allowing players to consciously play some of their own things Perhaps more helpful.

But Petit absolutely disagreed with this idea.

"Don't tell me what the British do. Passionate blood is something that is only useful when the two sides are equal in strength and wisdom. If it is really passionate, the will can be eaten, so why did the Germans meet the Italians? People lose in a mess? In the final analysis, is it because of lack of tactical awareness? I don’t agree that tactics are more important than anything else, but I think that player ability is the foundation, and tactics are the structure, and then go up to the next level. Ah, passion or something. The strength is not enough, and it is useless to talk about passion and passion, and you should honestly think about how to improve the team's tactical layout." Speaking of this, Petit looked at the same thing again. Shang, "Didier, you have only been a coach for a few years. It is the time when you are young. Young people, what is better than learning tactical thinking, football theory, and training skills? It is not big to engage in those fake, fake ones." mean."

Since Petit said such a thing, Deschamps couldn't object.In the game, his arrangement was still that Zhao Yaning was in the middle, leaving Jiuli and Roten on the two sides.On the forward line, there is still only one Adebayor available. On the midfield line, Deschamps replaced Cisse with Zicos, and Yaya Toure as a double midfielder to face this powerful enemy.

In this game, Deportivo basically ranked their strongest lineup.

Goalkeeper Molina, a player who once recovered from cancer, was a little crazy. In 00, he was the main force of the Spanish national team. Later, he was replaced by Valencia's Carney because of his nerve. Later, Carney When he took a shower, his brain was broken, and he stretched his foot to knock the perfume bottle and got injured. From then on, this position belonged to Casillas.

On the defensive line, their defenders are also very good.Romero, a Spanish member of the 02 World Cup, is an excellent defender with excellent skills and accurate crosses. His substitute is the only main player in the Spanish national team who does not belong to Real Madrid and Barcelona.

In the central defender position, it is Naibet and Andrade.The former is a Moroccan international and a French youth trainee. He can basically be called the number one defender in Africa—although the rise of Kolo Touré has made this title a bit dangerous.And his partner is Andrade, who was transferred from Porto, the Portuguese international, and his strength is also quite good.

At the right back position, Deportivo's player is Pablo. He also won the honor of the best right back in Europe. Before 02, he was also the main force of Spain, but he was injured before the World Cup. , the strength has dropped a lot.

And their defensive midfielders are Paul Sergio and Duscher.The former is a frequent visitor to the Spanish national team and a player in the 02 World Cup. He has strong running ability, covers a large area, and has good long-range shooting skills.The latter was also selected for the Argentine national team, but what is more famous is that he shoveled Beckham against Manchester United in the 01-02 season and was injured for four months.

And the two sides in front of them are Luke and Victor.The advantage of the former is strong shooting ability, strong body, and fast speed, but the technique is a bit weaker, while the latter's coping ability is very good, the crossing and shooting can only be regarded as average, but the small skills are very delicate, and the awareness of cooperation is also very good . [

And in front of them, of course, is the current main striker Tristan.This player, like Luke, was born in Mallorca. He has a strong body and delicate skills, and he can even be said to be the best among Spanish centers.He was also once placed high hopes by the whole of Spain, and even praised as Spain's Vieri.However, his own performance fluctuated, he performed poorly in key games, and he was also dissatisfied with being a substitute in the club, and in the end he still failed to achieve what he should have achieved.

And in the middle of them is Deportivo's midfield playmaker, Belleron.

"Others, you can deal with it yourself, but for Belleron, cheer me up no matter what. Whenever he gets the ball, he will double-team me, press close, and don't give any Chance!"

Deschamps still values ​​this person very much.Although Belleron is low-key by nature and not well-known, Deschamps is very aware of this person's strength.

This person is different from other Deportivo players, others are talents, he is a genius.His organizational ability, passing ability, grasping the rhythm of dribbling and judging the court space, his body including the ability to control the ball are all at the same level as Zidane.

His organizational talent is unique among many players in Spain.Guti has a better passing vision than him, but is limited by his own personality, too adventurous and aggressive, it is difficult to become a big player.And Harvey's running organization looks similar to him, but it lacks the ability to pass the ball fatally.As far as organizational talent is concerned, he is indeed very good.

But his disadvantage is also the same. The famous physical fitness is too poor, the difference is not 01:30.A person who has no speed, no confrontation, no physical strength, and no ability to resist injuries, let alone Zidane in this respect, even Riquelme, Harvey and other people with the same physical fitness are much better than him up.Not to mention, he suffered two serious cruciate ligament injuries and basically had to jog when he played.

This is also the reason why Djaminha has been Djaminha's substitute until Djaminha didn't make trouble with the coach above him and caused chaos: Most of his defense can be solved by pressing.

But if you really thought he was just a useless old cripple, you'd be wrong.This kind of technical player, almost every time he gets the ball, can do something that others can't imagine. If you relax them a little bit, they will surprise people in the game.

After carefully instructing every detail, Deschamps looked at the team seriously, "Remember, children, this is the first team in our group, and it is still playing at their home court. This game is the most difficult. If we win this one group match, our future games will be smooth sailing!"
