Chapter 166 Changes Must Be Made

Just let Boas dismiss get out of class sadly, Southampton, who won five consecutive victories in the league, and the glory is infinite, but in just one week, suffered three consecutive defeats, was eliminated in the FA Cup, and was overtaken by Tottenham in the league Dropped to fourth by one point, and fell behind away from home in the Europa League...

It is no exaggeration to say that this is called a total defeat.

What's wrong with Southampton?

"The weakness has exploded." Ji Ya said with a sigh.

Southampton's first team is not perfect. He has known this for a long time. The striker has no fixed scorer, the midfielder's technical content is slightly poor, and the defense is good for frontal confrontation, but once the space is too large, it is easy to be used by the opponent. Speed ​​counterattack...

These are all defects of Southampton due to the composition of the players, which are difficult to change.

But if you want to buy a striker who can bring a lot of goals, buy a midfielder with excellent skills and control the field, and buy a central defender who is fast and can chase back, these three problems will be solved immediately, but what about the money?

How much did Manchester City spend on Aguero, how much did Barcelona spend on Fabio, and Real Madrid spent 1000 million on Varane?

This is a player who could not be watched at all before Southampton opened up.

Now that the shortcomings are concentrated, the fact is that the opponent has basically figured out the characteristics of Southampton. Under such circumstances, what Ji Ya has to do is to strengthen the whole team to make up for the current shortcomings.

There is no perfect team, and teams that perform well are just good at covering up their shortcomings.

"In the next game, we need to strengthen our possession of the ball... Our midfield skills are not good enough, but our basic skills are not bad at all. As long as we respond more and run more during the pass, then we can increase our attack times. Reduce the number of our defenses, so that the defects of our defense and striker will be covered up well. We have actually been adapting to this tactic, but we didn’t have to be so extreme before. Now, just By this time."

Kiya said to the players on the training ground.

The players nodded one after another, and now this is the only way to go. Since the previous relatively easy tactics can no longer win, then of course a more tiring tactic must be used.

"Also, in addition to the daily training, each player will practice [-] extra shots." Ji Ya continued.

The players collectively sighed, and then collectively resigned to their fate.

Grinding the gun before the battle, unhappy also light.

There is a chance that they can’t score. To put it bluntly, they usually practice less shooting. Although they each have their own strengths, but if they practice shooting more, they feel that if they find the right goal, it will be easier to score goals.

Southampton did not get much respite, because after losing the FA Cup, the second round of the Europa League will come soon.

In the first round, they lost 96-[-] to Hannover [-] in the away game. If the Bundesliga team wants to advance, then only one draw is enough.

Of course, Southampton only needs a one-to-nil game, and that's fine.

Hannover 96 performed well last season, but this season they were not poached by other giants. In fact, the reason is very simple, because their lineup is mainly veterans, and the main lineup is basically 27-[-]. Even if they are very famous, their future is just like that. Naturally, no one will come to poach them.

However, these veterans have rich experience, strong character, and the results are good when they are combined. Although this season has declined, the overall strength is still there.

"In the last game, they actually used defensive counterattacks against us. Pinto and Diouf used speed and technique to penetrate our defense, so we must not rush this game, understand? Remember, as long as we don't Concede a goal, score a goal and win is ours."

Ji Ya said seriously on the training ground that he attached great importance to this game, not just because he received a new mission...

Mission Name: The Road to Reversal.

Task content: Because of the three-game losing streak in various competitions, your team is now in various doubts. Use a victory to fight back these doubts, eliminate your opponents, and prove that your team is okay.

Task reward: 96 achievement points will be obtained for eliminating Hannover 96, and [-] achievement points will be deducted for being eliminated by Hannover [-].

Just fifty achievement points, Ji Ya didn't pay much attention to it, but he questioned this with victory, Ji Ya needed it very much now.

So in this game, he changed slightly.

The goalkeeper is still Navas, the right back is Klein, and the left back is replaced by a young Luke Shaw. His speed and ability to go forward are what Southampton needs in this game. The central defenders are still Fonte and Love Lun, midfielder Matuidi was rotated, Dembele and Vidal partnered in the middle, Ronaldo returned to the midfield to participate in the organization, Nolito started as the left winger, right winger Willian, and center Klose.

This looks like a risky formation to give up the balance of the midfield and strengthen the attack, but Kiya sent this formation for only one reason.

That is to increase the technical content of the midfield and strengthen the control ability.

This is something that Hannover 96 did not expect.

After coming to Southampton, their coach Slomka said that the tactics of the previous game were very effective, and they will continue to use defensive counterattacks to let Southampton know what the tenacity of the German team is.

This of course aroused the dissatisfaction of the Southampton fans, so at the beginning of the game, they kept booing Hannover 96.

Hannover 96 did put up a defensive counterattack lineup. Except for the two forwards Pinto and Diouf running in the frontcourt to prepare for the counterattack, everyone else started to defend.

Southampton did not rush to attack.

From the very beginning of the game, they kept holding the ball at their feet, passing it back and forth, looking for opportunities.

They were very patient and passed on without gaps-in this game, Southampton sent players with good skills at their feet, taking the ball, receiving the ball, and passing the ball... making the entire team pass very smoothly.

And Ronaldo will occasionally break through after taking the ball to attract the opponent's attention, and when he sees that the opponent is ready for battle, he will immediately pass the ball to make the opponent nervous for a while.

This kind of passing requires a lot of running, but at the same time, the opponent's running is also a lot.

After all, when Southampton passed back and forth, they couldn't just stand there and watch. To maintain the integrity of the defensive formation, they also had to put in a lot of effort to do it.

Maybe they can't see anything now, but as time goes by, their physical decline is still a minor problem, but it is impossible for them to remain so tense all the time.

This is also the most troublesome problem for Barcelona's opponents in the past few years.

Now, it's Hannover 96's turn to have a headache.
