Super Coach

We've got the lineups for both sides.

Liverpool, who played at home, did not change the tactical formation in the warm-up match. They still used 433 as the starting tactic. From this, it is not difficult to see that Yang Cheng decided to make major changes to Liverpool's tactics and once again give this team The team bears its most obvious Caesar mark.

The goalkeeper was Dudek, the main player last season, the defense was Riise, Hyypia, Carragher and Finnan, and the three midfielders were Davis, Hamann and Gerrard. If there is no Unexpectedly, Hamann will still be at the back, and the front three is Ronaldinho, Robben and Drogba.

Judging from the warm-up match, Yang Cheng is very stubborn about the arrangement of the trident. He placed the right-footed Ronaldinho on the left and the left-footed Robben on the right. This is quite strange. And his performance is not ideal. Now it depends on whether he can fully activate these two wings after two weeks of closed training.

Ranieri's starting lineup also used all the main players to play. It can be seen that although he repeatedly stated before the game that Chelsea was not getting along well enough, he still chose the strongest lineup to win Liverpool away from home.

The goalkeeper is the Italian Cudicini, the defense is Bridge, Terry, Desailly and Babayaro, the midfielder is Makelele, Lampard and Veron are lined up, Duff Mutu and Mutu occupy two wings respectively, and Crespo plays the lone forward.

As everyone mentioned before the game, judging from the warm-up match, Liverpool's best offensive routine is to insert from the middle and back row. Both Gerrard and Davis have excellent long-range shots, especially It was Gerrard, and Yang Cheng gave him the right to fire in the penalty area.

Drogba in front has very good physical fitness, is also very fast, and has excellent coordination awareness, which makes all defenders who mark him feel a headache. Therefore, Ranieri does not dare to be careless and hoards heavy troops in the middle. Obviously, We must guard against Liverpool's central attack during the game.

Following a round of introductions by the on-site commentator, players from both sides slowly walked out of the player tunnel and entered the court under the leadership of referee Durkin.

This was Yang Cheng's Premier League debut. As before, he followed the team out of the tunnel.

As soon as he made his appearance, he immediately received overwhelming cheers from the entire Anfield stadium. All the P's generously gave the loudest applause to the most popular head coach in football today, [Caesar! Caesar! ! ] The shouts swept the entire Anfield stadium, allowing everyone, including all the viewers in front of the TV, to personally feel their welcome to the head coach.

This is the charm of Caesar! Only he can make Red Army fans so crazy!

We might even say,

He didn't need to play to conquer all the Red Army fans. He is Caesar, an incredible head coach!

I would like to ask, in the history of the Premier League, which head coach can get so many cheers and applause, and the support and support of so many fans in the first game and before the debut?

The on-site commentator couldn't help but smile and praise when he saw that the P's at the scene loved Yang Cheng so much.

Yang Cheng smiled and waved to the fans in the stands. Today he wore a simple casual T-shirt, looking very casual.

Walking to the visiting team's coaching bench, Yang Cheng and Ranieri shook hands and hugged. The two coaches talked for a while on the sidelines, and then saw Yang Cheng patting Ranieri on the shoulder and turning back to his home team coach. In front of the table.

After talking with his assistants for a while, Yang Cheng walked out and stood outside before the game was about to start.

This is also Yang Cheng's trademark. He almost never directs games from the coaching bench.

…………

…………

With Durkin's whistle and the cheers of the Red Army fans at the scene, Liverpool's front trident immediately rushed forward, while Chelsea, who took the first kick, sent the ball back.

The game started and Chelsea kicked off first.

The ball was passed back to the backcourt, and after two passes back and forth, it came to Veron's feet. The Argentinian is a star that Chelsea has introduced with a lot of money this season. The purpose is to become the core of this upstart Premier League team. Therefore, Veron is also ambitious this season. exuberant.

After all, he is a top star, and his posture when holding the ball is very different. As soon as he takes the ball, he does not pass it out in a hurry. Instead, he raises his head, observes for a while, and directly passes the ball from the backcourt to the frontcourt. of the left.

Duff advanced on the left. The Irishman was very fast and wanted to penetrate Liverpool's defense to get the ball. However, Finnan was experienced and got stuck early. He headed the ball and the ball was knocked back. of Haman.

The German took the ball and quickly moved it forward, to Gerrard's feet and into Chelsea's half.

Ronaldinho retreated to the right to get the ball, turned around, and directly faced Bridge who was pressing forward.

The Portuguese looked very calm and collected, without any shyness or shyness in his private life. He paused deliberately, and when Bridge came forward, he suddenly kicked the ball toward the baseline, and then the whole People chased him.

Bridge immediately followed suit, preparing to block Ronaldinho's passing route to the center.

The Portuguese is very fast. He makes an emergency stop and then accelerates towards the bottom line.

Bridge also stopped suddenly and then accelerated again. The whole process was very reluctant, but he could still keep up. Especially as soon as he saw that the baseline was approaching, Bridge wanted to let Ronaldinho pass the ball to the baseline by himself. .

But just when the ball was about to go out of the baseline, Ronaldinho suddenly made another emergency stop, stopping the ball inside the baseline, and he rushed out of the baseline, but his whole body was not like Bridge's. He slipped and fell to the ground, looking very embarrassed.

After returning to the court and getting the ball, he kicks and passes the ball.

The placement of this cross was not very good. After Drogba caught up with him in the middle, he was blocked by Desailly with his experience and headed the ball away.

Although he failed to form a shot, Ronaldinho forced a breakthrough on the right, knocked down Bridge, and immediately received cheers from the entire Anfield stadium fans.

Oh my God, two emergency stops in a row. This guy's explosive power and speed are so outstanding, and his skills at his feet are very skillful! The commentator on the scene couldn't help but marvel.

In the short distance on the right side of the penalty area, Ronaldinho did a really good job with two consecutive sprints and two emergency stops.

After the ball was cleared, it didn't take long before it returned to Liverpool's feet again, this time on the right.

When Xiao Luo faced Bridge, he saw that this guy used his little bee signature move. He pedaled his bicycle twice in a row, which made Bridge's center of gravity unstable and his whole body tilted towards the direction of the penalty area, while Xiao Luo Ronaldinho completed the breakthrough along the right line.

The next cross fell into the front post, and Gerrard's header from the back row was slightly higher.

It's so beautiful! Two consecutive beautiful breakthroughs allowed us to see this outstanding Portuguese winger. He is Cristiano Guinaldo. Let us remember this name!

The Anfield stadium was completely boiling, and for no other reason than Ronaldinho's two breakthroughs.

Gorgeous, so gorgeous!

Although he failed to score a goal, Bridge was completely passive when defending Ronaldinho, and was even almost thrown around. The Portuguese's speed and skills almost confused him.

Is this the winger Yang Cheng has high hopes for? If so, we have to be impressed by Caesar's vision again, because his performance is so outstanding!

Yang Cheng stood at the edge of the Qihang Update Team. He saw Ronaldinho pass Bridge twice in a row under his nose. He had to laugh. Once this kid's skills were put into play, he couldn't help but laugh. The space is really gorgeous.

Bridge's defensive ability is not reassuring. Media comments before the game focused on Chelsea's two wings. They believed that Bridge and Babayaro's defensive ability was not reassuring. Bridge was even more He gave the opponent a penalty kick in the Champions League qualifying match, which became the subject of major doubts among Blues fans.

In this game, Ranieri focused on defending the center. Obviously he was afraid of Gerrard and Davis' back-row penetration. He let go of the wings. This was more because Liverpool played more in the pre-season warm-up matches. In the middle attack, the two wing players did not perform well.

But he didn't know the reason, nor did he know that Yang Cheng had changed this routine over the past two weeks.

This kid likes to be in the limelight, so let him be in the limelight. As long as he doesn't stick to the ball and miss the opportunity, let him do it! Yang Cheng said with a smile.

He just wants Ronaldinho to understand it for himself. His skills are too flashy and fancy. It's okay when he encounters a character like Bridge, but when he encounters an experienced and seasoned defender, he's doomed.

Sometimes, no matter how much Yang Cheng talks, it's useless. It's like a child. You tell him that chili peppers are spicy, but he doesn't believe it. You have to try it himself. After eating the spicy food, he Only then will you understand, ah, it’s really spicy.

The same is true for Xiao Luo!

Although Benitez does not agree with Yang Cheng's behavior, he respects his intention to cultivate young players.

Yang Cheng is not partial. He entrusts Ronaldinho with important responsibilities. He cares a lot about Robben, Didier Drogba, Essien, Glen Johnson, and every player in the team and is doing his best. We will do our best to help them progress and grow.

It's just that Ronaldinho's situation is quite special and he is taken seriously by the coaching staff.

Ranieri placed the focus of defense in the center, but gave us space to attack on the wings, which gave Ronaldinho and Robben space to play, but we didn't do a very good job of keeping up in the center. .”

Yang Cheng nodded. The defense of Lampard, Veron and Makelele is still very good. It will undoubtedly be difficult to open up the situation for a while, especially Makelele's protection in front of the penalty area.

…………

…………

So fast! Robben formed a breakthrough on the left. He used his speed to force a breakthrough of Babayaro. It was too fast and Babayaro couldn't catch up. Robben made a pass from the left side of the penalty area.

Ludrogba comes in and headers the goal!

Oops, Cudicini flew up and picked the ball out with his fingertips, a wonderful save!

Liverpool's offensive has been overwhelming since the start of the game. The Red Army playing at home frequently played amazing offensives on both sides. Especially the breakthroughs of Robben and Ronaldinho on the left and right sides were even more amazing. Liverpool's attack is amazing!

Looking at Chelsea, after the opening, they were constrained by the defense on the two wings and never organized an effective counterattack. Especially Duff, who played on the left, was taken care of by Finnan, and Mutu and Babayaro on the right were even more neglected by Ronaldo. The left-wing combination of Ben and Riise completely suppressed Chelsea, and Chelsea looked very passive on the scene.

However, although passive, Chelsea appeared to be very stable defensively and basically did not give Liverpool a good chance. The center back combination of Terry and Desailly, plus Lampard, Veron and Makélélé in front The help and protection allowed Chelsea to do a good job in defending in the middle and did not give Liverpool a good chance to score.

Ranieri is still very good at coaching defense. The Chelsea he coached has always been a headache for other Premier League teams in terms of defense. In the past two or three seasons, the Blues have been the best defensive team in the Premier League. One of the outstanding teams, especially this season, after the targeted introduction of many players, the defense has been greatly improved.

Caesar is the main attacker and Ranieri is the main defender. This is really an interesting game!

The on-site commentator looked at the situation on the field. Liverpool attacked quickly and Chelsea defended very steadily. Neither side made any mistakes. However, as time continued to pass, the score remained unchanged.

…………

…………

Dietmar, slow down, slow down!

Yang Cheng walked to the sidelines and waved to Haman, who was not far away, indicating that he should slow down the rhythm.

His shouts could be heard by everyone around him. After all, he had just arrived in the team and had not yet formed a tacit understanding. He gestured several times to tell Hamann to slow down, but the German just didn't understand what the gestures meant.

Really fucked!

We can't slow down as soon as we go fast! Yang Cheng pointed at the field and said with a smile, but he was secretly complaining in his heart.

Liverpool seems to be in control of the situation, but in fact, Chelsea's defense is very stable. Ranieri is eager for you to go faster, and he is waiting to see how long you can go faster?

45 minutes? 50 minutes? 60 minutes?

You will always have weak energy, and when you slow down, I will completely defeat you right then and there!

This was a trick that Yang Cheng used frequently in the past, but now it was used against him by others, and he felt a little bit bitter in his heart.

Things are changing!

Don't these bastards know how to be slow? Yang Cheng saw Haman pass another medium and long pass to Ronaldinho on the right. The Portuguese continued to dribble the ball and rush blindly. He did He completed a very beautiful one-on-one pass, which made Bridge spin around, but the final cross was cleared by Terry again.

Useless!

The goal is arranged in the center, so football tactics always focus on the center as the attacking area. No matter how strong the wing is, the ball must return to the center to score a goal.

Today's Liverpool controls the wings, and both Ronaldinho and Robben steal the show. But the problem is that once the ball reaches the center, there is nothing to do. Chelsea firmly controls the center.

This guy's tactics are very targeted! Benitez looked at Ranieri who was as stable as a rock in the distance.

What a bullshit! Yang Cheng cursed.

The assistants all around were laughing. If the premiere was messed up, who knows if Yang Cheng would tear Melwood's head off?

He was unhappy, but Yang Cheng had to admit that the Italian head coach was indeed very good at tactics.

The Premier League is about art, and the Brazilians are about art, but what the Italians are best at is manipulation. They are always deducing the situation on the field, so every one of those outstanding Italian head coaches is a master of deduction. They are all so calm and rational because they are thinking all the time.

These bastards are really... Yang Cheng sighed, They forgot all the arrangements before the game!

That's why I said, we need Xavi Alonso! Benitez said again unexpectedly.

Yang Cheng didn't look good on this guy, Don't I know? Buy him if you can!

When everyone saw them bickering, they all laughed.

Benitez himself laughed. He wanted to buy it, but couldn't.

Yang Cheng is also depressed. Liverpool currently lacks the ability to control the rhythm, so the only thing he can do is to make up for it by using the three players in the midfield to run non-stop like Mourinho did when he was at Chelsea. lack of this aspect.

In other words, once Liverpool can't run anymore, they can only be slaughtered by their opponents!

…………

…………

Liverpool had an overwhelming advantage, but Chelsea was rock solid, especially their defense in the middle, which did not give Liverpool the slightest chance.

The passes from the two wings never caused much movement in the center. Under the joint restrictions of Desailly and Terry, Drogba was completely submerged in the opponent's defense. Without this fulcrum, Liverpool's The offense has lost its backbone and cannot form an effective threat.

In other words, Liverpool can effectively send the ball into the 32-meter area, but they lack the advantageous means to convert opportunities into goals in the 32-meter area because the opponent's defensive system completely covers this area. .

Ranieri's tactics are defensive counterattacks. He makes it clear that he wants to fight you and let you attack. As long as you are tired of attacking, I will pounce and fight, and you will be dead!

Of course, Yang Cheng is also aware of his team's problems, so all he has to do is to prevent this situation from happening. He must adjust an effective tactic as soon as possible, and then break through Chelsea's defense and score goals.

By then, the initiative will be back in Liverpool's hands.

When the time entered 40 minutes, Yang Cheng felt that there was no need to continue watching the game. He turned around and walked towards Tim Hank, studying the first half data, especially Chelsea's data.

He always believes that there are no perfect tactics in this world, but all tactics must be implemented by people, and people will definitely make mistakes, so he believes that Chelsea's defense will also have loopholes.

The key point is how to find this vulnerability and exploit it!
