Reborn Liverpool

Chapter 9 Midfield Adjustment
Tranmere's home dressing room was dead silent.

Captain Holness and "Big Brother" Powell sat in front of their lockers without saying a word.

When Zhang Mai and several other substitute players came in, no one even looked up at them.

"Everyone worked hard in the first half. The responsibility lies with me. I miscalculated South Allianz's tactics. Now take a good rest!"

As soon as Edwards came in, he took the responsibility on himself, which made most players look a lot better.

"Coach, Odejayi is too lazy. He is like an invisible man on the court, which makes it difficult for me to play alone in the frontcourt."

The tsundere little prince Donnelly couldn't help but attack.

"F×××! Take care of yourself, even if you can't catch the ball, you still come to trouble me!"

The old fritter Odejayi didn't want to take the blame for losing, and dismissed Donnelly's accusations.

Edwards clapped his hands to stop the quarrel between the two, and began to arrange the second half:

"Stop! Be quiet. In the second half, Coomass and Odjayi come down. Zhang Mai and Bell Badger come on. Now Zhang Mai will talk about our tactical changes in the second half."

Coomas was exhausted by South Allianz's offensive in the first half, and gave the opponent a penalty before the end of the game. He had no choice but to be replaced by the coach.

Odejayi doesn't care, anyway, the appearance fee has already been paid, as for the goal award, that thing is too difficult!
Zhang Mai saw that the locker room had calmed down again, and his teammates looked at him one after another, so he said openly:

"In the second half, Stockton went up to the right striker. Bell Badger took over Stockton's original forward position. Ernes forms a double midfielder; thus our formation becomes '3232'.

When attacking, Donacciendo and left forward Bell Badger linked up to form an offensive corridor on the left; the midfielder was still "Big Brother" Powell in the center, and I was on the right; Kirby in the left backcourt had to stare at him desperately South Allianz's number 14, don't be afraid of the opponent's hand-to-hand combat, no matter how tragic it is, it can't compare to being torn apart by Tranmere's loyalists after the game!

Maybe this formation is flawed defensively, but it has already conceded three goals, and if it doesn't attack, it will only die worse. "

Zhang Mai came slowly, and found that his teammates were either nodding or concentrating thoughtfully, and Kilby on the 14th even cast a grateful look.

Only Donnelly curled his lips in disdain.

Zhang Mai saw everything in his eyes, and after a pause, he continued to emphasize:
"There are a few points to note about the new formation:
1. When the midfielder rushes towards the front of the opponent's penalty area, the front striker should go to the left and right sides of the penalty area to attract and take away the corresponding defensive force; if the opponent rushes to the center and leaves the striker empty, then congratulations to the two strikers, the chance to score Come on, because the pass from the center is coming soon;

2. If the attack of the midfield develops to the side, then the two forwards can squeeze each other's defense in the middle. At this time, the center of the penalty area is crowded, and the crosses from the side must be mostly air balls. The forwards are not good. If you attack the goal directly, try to knock back in the middle of the penalty area to create long-range opportunities for "Big Brother" Powell;
3. When South Allianz launched an attack, the '23' in the midfield is the first defensive gate. Our attack opportunities are not good, and the '23' in the midfield is also responsible for possession of the ball.

It is best not to let the fans in the stadium see someone walking on the field!

Well, I'm done, and here's Mr. Edwards' new arrangement for the second half. "

Many old players who are familiar with the team's tactics all know that Edwards's three-axes don't have so many tricks, but they are still attracted by this new technical and tactical thinking, and they all ponder the beauty of it...

"This is your own idea, Chinese kid. I'm a striker, and I always only see the enemy's goal. I won't go to the wing, and I won't give the damn ball to the opponent's midfielder!"

Donnelly couldn't see that Zhang Mai's arrangement was gradually recognized by his teammates, so he jumped out to refute.

Zhang Mai and his teammates looked at the coach Edwards who was on the sidelines.

Edwards was also attracted by Zhang Mai's new ideas, and his face flushed with anger when he heard Donnelly's doubts and objections.

"That's what I mean, Donnelly rests in the second half, Hill comes in at left-back on the 25th, Kilby takes over from Bell Badger, and Bell Badger plays right forward."

Look what you can!A striker who only scored a goal in four or five games, is still TM "only has the enemy's goal in his eyes".

I'll fix you in minutes!Edwards finally regained the confidence of the head coach.

"That's it for the second half, kicking a Southend man in the ass at Prenton Park!"

Edwards ignored the stunned Donnelly and walked away.

"Zhang Mai, thank you for letting me play, are you the illegitimate son of Mr. Coach?"

Bell Badger's teasing words caused a roar of laughter, and the teammates were amazed at Zhang Mai's weight in the coach's heart.

Annoyed, Donnelly also slammed the door away, leaving behind a sentence, "A good striker is one who can score goals, just wait and see!".

The old fried dough stick Odejayi began to pay attention: MD, the new Chinese boy is not easy, try not to offend him if he can!

Seeing that the locker room has returned to calm, Zhang Mai still has some time to ride,
Discuss running positions and cooperation with captain Holness, "Big Brother" Powell, funny forward Bell Badger and newly promoted left forward Donna Xien.

Zhang Mai also specifically explained that No. 25 Hill, who is small and fast, wants to stalk the opponent's No. 14 forward.

With some new arrangements, the vitality of the Tranmere players has finally recovered a bit.

As the game approached, under the leadership of captain Holness, everyone clapped in a circle and was full of fighting spirit.

……

The on-site commentator Tommy White was very depressed today. As a loyal supporter of Tranmere, he explained carefully for 10 minutes today, followed by the home team conceding goals one after another.

Open your mouth to curse, no, professional ethics determines the stability of your job; keep silent, let alone!Can you call it an explanation without opening your mouth?
So there was only a sentence of dry commentary resounding over the Prenton Park Stadium:

"The ball was tackled again by South Allianz's No. 3 defender, who passed the ball to the midfielder No. 10..."

"No. 10 received a pass back from No. 7, and a 40-meter diagonal pass was hoisted to Tranmere's right backcourt..."

"It was South Allianz's No. 3 who received the ball again. The right side was empty, and the captain Holness in the middle made it up in time..."

"Number 3 is too fast, Captain Holness can only block his inside line..."

"The number 3 made a pass back down the right side of Tranmere's big box, dangerous..."

"The goal was scored, and the goalkeeper Williams showed a wry smile..."

"The goal was scored again, the players of the home team were obviously distracted, but they didn't..."

"Penalties are very difficult to save. Williams has not saved a penalty this season..."

"The first half is over, and the home team is temporarily behind 0:3. We look forward to the counterattack of the home team in the second half."

During the intermission, Tommy White gave up the customary audience interaction session, and it was 0:3. If he said anything again, he would be scolded.

It wasn't until he took the note from the assistant that Tommy White's eyes lit up and he started to show his fighting spirit again:
"I just received the substitution information from the home team Tranmere. The two forwards who were mediocre in the first half, and the veteran Coomass who fouled in the penalty area due to lack of energy and gave the opponent a penalty kick were all replaced.

Pistachio Bell Badger and Dwarf No. 25 Hill are Tranmere's regular substitutes, and the other is Zhang Mai, a Chinese teenager we have never seen before!
Let's take a look at Zhang Mai's profile:

Field position: Forward

Height: 178cm
Weight: XNUM X kg
Date of birth: April 1998, 12

God!This is a Chinese teenager under the age of 16. Will he become the biggest variable in the second half of Tranmere?

Let us cheer for the Tranmere Warriors who are back on the field, and wish them a successful counterattack against adversity! "

Before Tommy White finished speaking, a burst of cheers erupted from the VIP seats in the front row of the main stand, and an English banner was displayed.

"Jiangnan Leather Team" only Zhang Mai can't brag, Tranmere will win!
NM, is this the surprise Wen Xiaopang gave me?

Zhang Mai, who had just stood on the lawn, almost cried.
