Super Coach

During the two-week national team match day, those players who did not participate in the national team match can only rest for the first two days, and they have to continue to come back for training for the rest of the time. In terms of manpower, Yang Cheng specially selected a number of players who usually performed well from the youth team. Players enter the first team.

Coincidentally, both Schweinsteiger and Podolski were transferred to the first team by Meulensteen.

Today, Schweinsteiger plays the position of the right midfielder. He is fast and has excellent impact. In addition, he has received technical training in the youth team for more than a year. He is basically solid and has outstanding physical fitness. He performed well.

Yang Cheng originally planned to arrange him to play in the middle during training. After all, he reached his peak in this position, but Thomas Riddle and Ogigway in the team can both be competent, plus Frings and Deco , So he suppressed this tempting thought, and just gave these two teenagers some more guidance during training.

Training twice a day, each training session minutes, Schweinsteiger and Podolski are almost out of breath.

It's too strong! Little Pig drank the water panting like a cow, shaking his head non-stop.

Although he was only 14 years old, he performed well in the youth team, but when he came to the first team, he became the worst player, and this was just training. If it came to the official game, wouldn't it be...

It's no wonder that Riddle and Ogigway seem to be so comfortable every time they play against the second team! Podolski is similar, he is younger, but his height is not short, and he is not as short as Shi Wei. Like Insteiger, he is a little grown-up.

Training with a team, the real hard work is not technical defects, after all, at their age, their skills have already taken shape, and they can stand out from the famous Kaiserslautern youth training camp, their skills are definitely top-notch However, what really makes them play badly is their ability to withstand that pressure.

Every player in the first team tensed their nerves even during training, and they were very focused. They had to fight for every ball and every inch of the field, especially the aura on them, which made them all The momentum of the people converged into a powerful oppressive force, which almost suffocated the two young generals.

The same technical moves, the same incoming ball, but their handling method is simpler and more capable than ours! Schweinsteiger is very smart, and he immediately understood his technical flaws.

A truly outstanding professional player is often the player who kills the opponent with the simplest and most direct technique!

Yang Cheng's voice sounded beside them, obviously he heard the conversation between the two.

Boss! Both Schweinsteiger and Podolski stood up quickly.

Yang Cheng motioned them to sit down and rest, then squatted down in front of them, and stuffed each of them with a bottle of water.

These two teenagers were discovered by him before, and they have improved significantly in the past year. Although Yang Cheng did not continue to recruit for the youth training camp in Kaiserslautern, he admired these two young players very much. players, and Thomas Muller.

Fancy technical moves are not very practical. On the football field, efficiency is the most important thing, so you must remember that the most practical technology can often produce the best results!

The two young generals immediately remembered the advice of the respected boss.

At the beginning, many players, like you, thought that training was just preparation, and there was no need to be as strict as the game, but they soon understood the benefits of doing so. Training is also a battlefield, because in a long season, the game requires Much less than training, which is the key to a player's development.

I always ask the team to act as a whole. How can I ask for it? Is it asked before the game? Yang Cheng asked with a smile.

The two young generals suddenly realized that they were not stupid.

Yes, asking and motivating them in training, so that they will naturally extend this requirement and this sense of unity to the field, this is the training method of the first team!

The training of the youth team is more about cultivating players, but the training of the first team is to achieve results, so Yang Cheng attaches great importance to the training of the first team. Also very high.

The Jagged Legion is trained on the training ground, not the arena!

Of course, the tempering of the game is also very important.

Boss, can we train with the first team often? Schweinsteiger asked expectantly.

Yang Cheng frowned, No way! This text was provided by Qihang update team

The two teenagers were immediately disappointed. Obviously, they both realized that following the real training of the first team would be of great help to their improvement.

But if you perform well in the youth team, I can consider it! Yang Cheng smiled and scratched the heads of the two young players from left to right. He was really eager to see these two young players cultivated by himself. to what extent.

Yeah! The two teenagers immediately jumped up excitedly.

Yang Cheng was also very excited. Looking at them, he seemed to see the future of football.

On Saturday, Yang Cheng specially arranged an internal confrontation match, which was the same as the official match, with two half-time minutes, but Yang Cheng disrupted the players of the first team and mixed in some players from the youth team and the second team.

Among them, Yang Cheng is most concerned about the central defender combination of Thomas Luke, Louis Huth and Lucio. The team they belong to has won the victory. After all, they are strong, but there are still some loopholes in defense.

Yang Cheng had asked Chris Schmidt to record the match before, and added the videos of the previous games to make a collection. He called Thomas Rick to his office and asked him to watch a collection of videos that belonged to him. .

What do you think? Yang Cheng asked only after Thomas Rick finished watching the video.

He used a chatting tone to talk to the players, because he didn't think the players made a mistake. After all, every player had to change his hard-won habits and integrate into a brand-new defensive system. It takes a while.

It's as if Cannavaro, Samuel and other Serie A defenders have gone to Real Madrid, and it's been difficult to integrate into it for a reason.

Thomas Luke couldn't say anything, just nodded continuously. This text was provided by Qihang Update Team, but no one provided it, but it was useless to describe it in words.

If he had been observing his teammates on the court before, then this time he looked at the game from a broader perspective and looked at the cooperation between himself and his teammates.

Your problem is not just that you don't cooperate well with your teammates, but that you don't have a thorough understanding of the team's defensive system. That's why you have disagreements with your teammates on certain things, right?

Thomas nodded, Yang Cheng was absolutely right.

Our team's tactics are mainly based on one major premise, that is, concentration. The attention must be kept absolutely concentrated. Whether it is offense or defense, I will require every player to devote 100% of their concentration to the game. And every player, even a defensive player, the first thing to consider is how to support and respond to his teammates.

In this regard, Thomas Rick has done quite well, but he is still not bold enough, because he regards himself as a traditional German central defender, and usually dare not even press casually.

As for defense, we mainly reflect in three aspects. First, delay! Yang Cheng took out a blank piece of paper, randomly drew a court shape on it, and then drew an area in it, which happened to be on the opponent's side. At halftime, in the center and front field area of ​​our side, and then heavily write down the delay.

Our team's pressing and pressing in the midfield and frontcourt, and counter-attacking on the spot after losing the ball seem to be to consider getting the ball back as soon as possible, or directly counterattacking after stealing the ball, but if you think about it, China How many precedents are there for stealing the ball and counterattacking after pressing in the frontcourt? Very few!

The purpose of our on-the-spot counter-robbing and pressing in the midfield is to delay, delay the opponent's counterattack! This is why Yang Cheng relies so heavily on Gattuso, he is definitely the most capable of delaying the opponent's attack. !

Then Yang Cheng drew an area behind him, The front effectively delays the opponent's counterattack, and the teammates behind have ample time to organize a defensive system. Players who lost their positions during the attack can return to their positions. , forming regional protection for each other, we call this point drop position!

After landing, control the area, connect each other in series, form a strong protective belt, ensure the safety of the goal, and avoid the opponent from directly facing the goal as much as possible. This is control!

After listening to Yang Cheng's words, and then looking at his really bad but clearly visible painting, combined with the game video collection just now, he finally began to understand where his mistakes were.

The first is the difference between his philosophy and his teammates. When the team is attacking, he does not give enough support, and he dare not press boldly like Lucio and Kyle, because he used to be just a responsible player. centre-back.

Secondly, at the moment when he switched from offense to defense, his first consideration was to retreat and defend instead of gaining a firm foothold and laying down a defensive system. This made the area he guarded easy for the opponent to form a breakthrough point. When the team's formation is still pressing forward, his retreat will lead to the collapse of the defensive system.

In the end, he does not have enough trust in his teammates. However, Kaiserslautern requires players to trust and respond to each other, whether they are attacking or defending.

I know, it's difficult for you to accept these for a while, take your time, I believe in your ability, you can definitely do it! Yang Cheng patted Link on the shoulder encouragingly.

The strength of this German central defender is not top-notch, but his awareness, sense of position and anticipation are absolutely top-notch. Coupled with his age, experience and stability, once he integrates into the team, he will definitely let Kaiserslautern's defense went straight to the next level.

The Mavericks are indeed good, but the reality is not to play Fm, and the players are not a lot of data, it is uncalculated, so it still needs a mature and stable person to lead it!

From September 2, after Romania finished the qualifiers, Kivu was the first to return to the team. After that, 66 players returned to the team one after another. Players who participated in the national team game have to wait until the game is approaching before they can return to the team.

For this reason, in the away game against Stuttgart on the 8th, Yang Cheng had to line up a relatively incomplete lineup, especially in the midfield. , with Ojigway on the left, Deisler on the right, Schneider as the midfielder, and Klose as the striker.

Although Stuttgart was also affected by the national team, it was a home game after all. After 10 minutes of fierce competition, the two sides finally drew 1:1. Schneider scored the first goal for Kaiserslautern, but the second half. Stuttgart played even better and equalized the score. This text was provided by Qihang Update Team

Originally, the away draw with Stuttgart was considered a good result, but unfortunately, Bayern Munich beat Rostock 6:1 at home, and Hitzfeld's team firmly occupied the league table with their 3 consecutive victories at the start of the league.

As expected of Heathfield! After learning the result, Yang Cheng just praised with a smile.

There is no doubt about Heathfield's strength, nor about Bayern's strength. Kaiserslautern's championship situation this season is not optimistic, but the more Yang Cheng faces such a strong opponent, the more excited he feels.

Three days later, Kaiserslautern returned to the Fritzwaltstadion to welcome Hertha Berlin.

In this game, Yang Cheng sent his main force to play, and defeated Hertha Berlin 4-1 cleanly at home, but Bayern Munich also relied on Elber's brace to beat Freiburg 2-0 in the away game and continue to keep League standings position.

In the two rounds of the league after the national team match day, Leverkusen and Dortmund had a record of 1 draw and 1 loss, and began to widen the gap with Kaiserslautern and Bayern Munich. Stuttgart was better, with 2 consecutive draws, But it also began to distance itself from the championship team, which made everyone speculate that the Bundesliga championship this season is still a competition between Bayern and Kaiserslautern.

On September 15, Kaiserslautern sat at home and ushered in the Danish team Brondby.

Yang Cheng still played with the strongest lineup, the goalkeeper was Reinke, the defense line was Thomas Luke, Louis Huth and Lucio, the double midfielders were Veron and Frings, and the left and right wingers were Denilson. And Deisler, Ballack is in the middle, and Ruud van Nistelrooy and Larson are the two forwards.

Although this is Yang Cheng's first Champions League game, he still did not choose to be safe and conservative. After all, the game was played at the Fritz Walter Stadium. He decided to attack to the end from the very beginning.

Only 2 minutes into the game, Van Nistelrooy took advantage of a breakthrough cross from Deisler on the right to break through Brondby's goal in front of the goal and set a record for Kaiserslautern.

Afterwards, Kaiserslautern firmly controlled the situation on the field, and in the 23rd minute, Ballack made another victory to rewrite the score to 2:0.

For a while, Kaiserslautern's offensive was raging, and this text was provided by no one from the Qihang Update Team. There was a panic in front of Brondby.

In the 35th and 38th minutes respectively, goals from Larson and Ruud van Nistelrooy sealed the score at 4:o!

The entire Fritzwalt Stadium suddenly boiled. Kaiserslautern, who returned to the Champions League, showed an unparalleled and powerful offensive, especially in the ability to create opportunities and grasp opportunities to score. The team almost did well. Impeccable.

In the second half, with Brondby's shrinking defense and Kaiserslautern's adjustment, the game began to slacken, but Klose scored a header in the 78th minute to lock the score at 5:0.

This big victory has also become the biggest victory in the first round of the group stage of the official competition of the UEFA Champions League in the new season, especially the incomparably powerful attack power shown by Kaiserslautern, Brondby's decline is even worse. It boosted Kaiserslautern's momentum.

In the midst of the Champions League victory, after returning to the league, Kaiserslautern first defeated Nuremberg 2-0 away in the fifth round, and then won two games in the German Cup and the sixth round of the league. 1: o beat Bochum.

In the second round of the UEFA Champions League group stage, Kaiserslautern ushered in a strong opponent Barcelona at home.

Yang Cheng still adopts home attack tactics. After all, with his previous experience in dealing with Brondby, he is very confident that he wants to win Barcelona at home, but Van Gaal is also not to be outdone.

Although Van Nistelrooy's goal in the first half gave Kaiserslautern the lead, but in the second half after Figo made a sharp breakthrough from the right, he assisted Kluivert to score an equalizer, allowing Kaiserslautern to score three goals. A point becomes a point.

Back in the Bundesliga, Kaiserslautern was once again a guest at the Habland Stadium, facing their rival Bayer Leverkusen. The Bundesliga Red Devils, who had just experienced continuous battles, met Leverkusen's impregnable walls.

Daum stepped up his defense this time, once defending Kaiserslautern without temper, and finally ended up with an embarrassing o:o, both sides scored 1 point.

But as a competitor, Bayern Munich beat Schalke 04 3:1 in an away game, extending their lead over Kaiserslautern to 4 points.

From October 2nd to 16th, it was another two-week national team match day. Many players in the Kaiserslautern team participated in the national team match. Among them, Veron was injured in the Argentina team match and returned to the ball with the injury. team, coupled with the fatigue of many players, Kaiserslautern was forced to play Wolfsburg with an incomplete lineup. As a result, Wolfsburg was forced to draw 1:1 at home, but Gattuso also played at this time. He left the field due to injury in the first game. Although it is not serious, he is bound to miss the third round of the Champions League group stage against Manchester United.

Fortunately, Bayern tied with Dortmund 2:2 at home, and the gap between the two sides remained at 4 points.

But in this shortage of major generals, Kaiserslautern had to face the powerful Manchester United away and challenge Bayern Munich away in the 9th round of the league.

Ushering in two consecutive crucial games, Yang Cheng had to accept the reality of losing two midfielders, Veron and Gattuso, but he was still ambitious. Although the home draw with Barcelona, ​​Kaisers Lauten has obvious advantages.

At present, Kaiserslautern and Manchester United in Group D also have 4 points, so this game at Old Trafford will determine the key battle for the top of the group.

For this reason, Yang Cheng decided to continue to use offense instead of defense in the away game. Anyway, Veron and Gattuso were absent, so he simply attacked to the end and turned away from home. Manchester United was caught off guard!

This time, we will not only bring back 3 points from Manchester, but also take the top spot in the group, and then kill Bayern at the Olympic Stadium to reverse the situation! Yang Cheng shouted confidently at the team's mobilization meeting before heading to Manchester. road.
