Super Prophecy Master

Chapter 425 The Role of Potential Identification

"Tevez is really good!"

On the Millwall coach's bench, Wise couldn't help sighing as he watched the scene just now.

Zhang Yang pulled the corner of his mouth.

If Tevez hadn't used the method of speaking, Tevez would have scored. At that time, Wise would not only sigh, but worry about the game.

Zhang Yang is not very worried. Carlos Tevez is indeed very good, but even if the goal was scored just now, it would be very difficult for West Ham Lenovo to win. So far Millwall has not scored a goal, mainly due to bad luck. The number of threatening shots is much more than that of West Ham United.

Zhang Yang was somewhat afraid of the flaws in tactics.

The new formation requires the forward midfielder to fully utilize Livermore and increase the ability to break dense defenses. However, the forward midfielder is equal to the absence of a midfielder. The two forwards are still very forward. Facing the opponent's counterattack, they cannot form. An effective first line of defence, which can only be dealt with directly by the defenders, is tantamount to losing the 'buffer zone'.

This kind of defense doesn't matter if the opponent advances normally, but if the opponent uses the forward to advance and hit a quick counterattack supported by personal performance, the fight is not tactics, but player ability.

For example, facing West Ham United now, the opponent's striker Carlos Tevez is very good. When they show their form, Zambrotta and Darren Ward may not be able to block them.

This is where the problem lies.

Only one Tevez can pose such a threat to the defense, what if there are two?Of course, there will not be two Carlos Tevez, but it is very normal for some teams to have two outstanding strikers, so facing Tottenham Hotspur, Newcastle United and other teams, playing against teams with a new formation, Still very dangerous.

"Kevin's position should be withdrawn a bit." Wise gave a suggestion. He was talking about Braniff, and the expanded scope would be two avant-garde.

If the two forwards continue to retreat, they will become defensive midfielders, and the 4231 formation will really center on Livermore. This style of play requires too much technology from Livermore, and it is almost impossible to achieve, unless The offense relies on two flanks.

Sidewalk?

Zhang Yang thought about it carefully, but in the end he shook his head. If the main attack point was on the side, the 'dual core' would lose most of its power, and it would be better to replay the simple tactics of last season.

The 'rear midfielder forward' is only a means to break the dense defense, not the team's main style of play, so there is no need to spend a lot of effort on this. If you encounter a tough opponent, Livermore will return to the midfielder position. , Offense and defense are opposites. To strengthen the offense, you must sacrifice part of the defense.

Zhang Yang watched the game attentively, and also thought about tactics.

Soon the first half passed.

West Ham United defended until the last minute, Millwall failed to score in the first half, and the two teams returned to the dressing room to rest.

Zhang Yang also returned to the locker room. He didn't say much, but the players rested and before re-entering the field, he encouraged everyone to keep working hard.

Tactics are fine.

Zhang Yang believes that the team just lacks a little bit of luck. Luck is very important. Scoring depends on the performance of the players, and a large part of it depends on luck.

In many games, the advantaged side may not necessarily win. It is normal to not score for a long time, and the disadvantaged side may not necessarily lose. When luck is good, stealing the goalkeeper from the backcourt can also complete the goal.

In the second half, the cheers from the West Ham United fans were much louder. Many fans have realized that West Ham United can draw against Millwall at home, which is already quite remarkable. It is almost impossible to fight against Millwall head-on. If it is done, as long as Millwall does not score, it will be West Ham United's success.

West Ham fans hoped the score would last until the end of the game.

They were quickly disappointed.

Millwall has always had an absolute advantage, and there are many opportunities in front of the goal. When a player finds the feeling in front of the goal, it is almost time to score.

No.604 minutes, Vardy returned to the outside of the penalty area, and Braniff hit the goal frame with a strong shot. Before the West Ham United fans were lucky to escape, they saw a Millwall player shoot the ball. into the network.

"Simpson!"

"It's Josh Simpson!"

"A supplementary shot! Simpson helped Millwall break the goal of West Ham United. This is a very important goal. West Ham United defended for 10 minutes, but finally failed..."

West Ham United fans are very disappointed.

The same goes for the West Ham United players. Their goal is to keep the goal. It is best to keep it until the end of 10 minutes before they can draw with Millwall and get a difficult point.

Many players still hope to score goals by relying on counterattacks, just like the threat created by Tevez in the first half. If they can score with that kick, they will be able to lead Millwall, and maybe they will be able to beat their opponents.

After Simpson's goal, all hope was wiped out.

West Ham turned pessimistic.

In fact, when West Ham United played against Millwall, their mentality was very fragile. Although many of them were new to the team, more than half of the players were still the original team for two or three seasons. .

These players have experienced several contests with Millwall, and the final results are all big failures.

That's tragic.

When every home and away game is defeated by the same opponent by a big score, it is difficult to count on the high morale of the players in the team, and their mentality will become very fragile, just like now, after Millwall scored a goal , They will feel that the team has no hope of winning.

In that case, what are you trying to do?

----

When West Ham United was full of pessimism, Zhang Yang was also very surprised when he watched the celebration on the field.

The goal just now was nothing.

The cooperation in the penalty area was good. Vardy headed the ball to Braniff, who completed a strong shot and hit the post, and then Simpson successfully made a follow-up shot.

If it is a normal situation, I will definitely praise it, "Simpson is lucky."

Just luck?

Zhang Yang recalled the past games, and suddenly realized a problem, "Dennis, have you noticed? Josh seems to have a lot of follow-up shots."

"How many supplementary shots?"

Wise frowned, thought about it and nodded, "It seems that this season, I don't remember how many times, but most of them will be him. But Jamie also has, last time with..."

Wise recalled that there was a big deal, and Zhang Yang didn't have the patience to listen, as long as he knew that Wise had the same opinion as himself.

Is it normal to shoot more?

If he is a second striker, the position will determine the chances of supplementary shots, but Simpson played as a right midfielder last season and this season is a midfielder, so it has nothing to do with the striker.

Why does Simpson take more supplementary shots?Maybe it's his personal awareness?

Zhang Yang used 'potential recognition' to judge Simpson's potential, and suddenly discovered something surprising——
Josh Simpson: Possesses football set-piece potential (compulsory follower).

Rating: Eight stars.

Possesses the potential to smell football in front of goal.

Rating: Seven stars.

"Two talents?" Zhang Yang couldn't help shouting, causing Wise to look over in doubt.

Zhang Yang smiled and didn't care. He continued to look at Simpson on the field, and he had a new understanding of the ability of "potential recognition". He clearly remembered that Simpson only had one mandatory right to set the ball, but he didn't expect another one. 'Smell potential at the door'?
In other words, in the process of players growing up, new potentials will also be awakened?

wrong!

The system is only single, and it only appears on him. Others have not been digitized. Naturally, it doesn't matter what "awakening" or "not awakening". I think it has potential, so it is classified into the category of 'talent'.

This explanation makes sense.

Simpson's "smell in front of the goal" talent only has a seven-star rating, and the evaluation of "seven stars" is a bit lower, but considering that most players certainly don't have any "smell in front of the goal", having a star rating is already quite remarkable .

"It seems that Josh's talent is also good!" Zhang Yang praised silently, then turned to look at other players, but the final result was a bit disappointing. Most of the players still had no talent, even Zambrotta and Quares The same goes for horses.

This makes people a little confused.

Zhang Yang followed the thought just now, and then looked for the rules of potential players, and he almost figured it out.

Older players have no potential!

Most of the players with potential are around 20 years old, and certainly not more than 25 years old. "Potential" or "talent" should represent the possibility of future growth. When a player's technical ability is finalized, no matter how good a certain aspect is, Because there is no possibility of continued growth, there is no such thing as "potential".

The ability of "potential identification" is not to identify capable players, but to help him understand the growth of individual players.

Zhang Yang focused his attention on Livermore and confirmed his judgment again——
David Livermore: No potential.

Sure enough!

David Livermore had the potential of "one-on-one defense" before, and his defensive performance is also increasing, but now there is almost no increase. The potential for growth has disappeared, so naturally there is no potential.

Although some players have no potential, Zhang Yang is very happy, which shows that the players have really grown up.

Potential is good news, indicating that there is still a certain possibility of growth; no potential is not bad news, it only shows that the player's ability has been developed to a certain level, and there is limited room for further improvement.

That's it.

----

While Zhang Yang was thinking, the competition was going on fiercely.

West Ham United regrouped and wanted to play two waves of advancement, hoping to find a chance to equalize the score, but they were quickly suppressed by Millwall and could only continue to shrink their formation.

In the case of being one goal behind, the situation is so passive, which basically means that there is no chance.

In the 81st minute, Millwall scored the second goal.

This time it was a pick pass from the outside of Braniff. Livermore rushed into the penalty area, faced the opponent's two defenders, jumped up and rushed towards the goal. A powerful header turned the football and rushed towards the goal in an instant. , goalkeeper Carroll made a save, but by the time he reached the position, the football had already entered the net first.

Livermore's goal completely crushed West Ham United's confidence.

The next game can be described as garbage time, Zhang Yang did not hesitate to make substitutions and adjustments, allowing Curtis Weston to adapt.

In the end, Millwall defeated the home team West Ham United by two goals in an away game and won the 'Little Derby Battle' of the Christmas War.After the game, a piece of good news came. In the focus of the Christmas game, Arsenal chiefs played against Manchester United at home. Arsenal defeated the visiting Manchester United 2-1...
