Super Coach

I don't think we need to make any more signings at any position. Our transfer market has been closed early!

This is the first time Yang Cheng has announced the closure of the transfer market in advance, and every time he has fulfilled his promise, so that his players can prepare for the new season with peace of mind.

Just imagine, if every player was on tenterhooks during pre-season preparations and worried that they would be sold, how could they devote themselves to training and games?

Mr. Yang Cheng, some people have some doubts about your transfer policy. You sold the 22-year-old Baros who was in his prime and introduced the 33-year-old Larsson. Many people doubted that you were influenced by The decision was made only because of the financial situation of the club, right?

Yang Cheng looked very calm in front of the news podium and smiled, No!

After a pause, he continued: My transfer has always been to serve the team, and the financial situation will not be my first consideration. Besides, I don't think there is anything wrong with the 33-year-old Larsson. I understand. He, I believe he will be the most powerful addition to the team’s front line.”

Where's Baros? He showed excellent form and strength in the European Cup.

Yang Cheng nodded, Yes, I feel sorry for this. I wish him a good future at Stamford Bridge.

So far this season, Liverpool's transfer market has given the impression that they have not made significant signings. Xabi Alonso, who has been rumored before, has entered Real Madrid, and among the four players Liverpool have introduced , Franck Ribery and Larsson are both free transfers, Vidic and Ashavin did not spend much money, why is this? A reporter stood up and asked.

Yang Cheng smiled slightly, I'm surprised you would ask this, since you can do things with a small amount of money, why spend a lot of money?

All the reporters suddenly laughed.

Currently our first team has 25 players. I think this is a very reasonable number. I don't think it makes sense to make the first team too big. What I want to see is that every player can get the opportunity to play. Express yourself and maintain good competition within the team.

If you look purely at the overall strength of the team, I fully believe that our strength is even better than last season. I have no doubt about this. This makes me still unsure even so far. Who should be chosen to start!”

The reporters were all stung by Yang Cheng's complaints, and they all laughed.

Winning the Premier League title last season,

It is a wonderful encouragement and stimulation for us. I believe that my players and I hope to continue our better and more outstanding performance. At the same time, I also hope to take this opportunity to remind my players to work hard. , when you want to slack off and take a rest, look back at your back, you will find that the pursuer has already come up!

Liverpool's current first-team lineup is very young. It can even be said to be the youngest first-team lineup in the entire Premier League. If it weren't for the support of veterans such as Davis and Larsson, it would be simply a young guard. military.

For such a team, everyone understands that it will become stronger and stronger with the accumulation of time and experience.

Last question, Mr. Yang Cheng. After the new European champion coach Jose Mourinho came to Stamford Bridge, he said that he is the most special one among all the coaches in the Premier League. He will take you in the new season. What do you think about being kicked off the league championship? Another reporter asked with a smile, fearing that the world would be in chaos.

I welcome him to challenge me! Yang Cheng pointed at himself and said magnanimously.

But I still say the same thing. I always compare him with me. This is very unfair to him, because... Yang Cheng paused deliberately and asked with a smile, You guys Don’t you think this is cruel to him?”

All the reporters laughed, feeling that this counterattack was powerful.

Mourinho has not proven himself in the top league so far. His best achievement is the European Champions Cup. However, all the giants in the European League last season were collectively dissatisfied, and the powerful Inter Milan failed in the knockout rounds. The ship capsized, which led to the rise of boertu.

But for Yang Cheng, Mourinho's European Champions League is really nothing.

The media’s interpretation of Yang Cheng’s words was: Hey, buddy, you just got one, what a crap!

Of course, how the media interprets it is their business and Yang Cheng has no control over it.

The day after this press conference, Liverpool spent 200,000 euros at their home stadium to invite Wales’ Rickham to conduct a warm-up match at Anfield, attracting a total of 2.5 Thousands of football fans came to watch the game. In the end, Liverpool defeated their opponent 2:1, with Gerrard scoring twice.

In this warm-up match, Yang Cheng asked a total of 22 players to sneak around the court. Liverpool led 2:0 in the first half, but was scored by the opponent in the second half. Vidic, who had just joined the team, The partnership with Agger is good, but the team's overall defensive coordination is a bit problematic.

After playing this game, Liverpool left for the United States that day.

But just when the team went to the United States, Ronaldinho had to report to the Portuguese Olympic team to prepare for the Athens Olympics in August. He will also miss all Liverpool games during the Olympics, which will be a challenge for Liverpool's preparations. Big impact.

Fortunately, he is also the only player in the Liverpool team to participate in the Olympics.

…………

…………

Liverpool's trip to the United States looks more like a spectacular group outing.

Not only the 25 players of the first team, but also the coaching staff, club chefs, team doctors, etc., all of them formed a huge travel group and arrived in Washington on a Boeing plane.

Many local media and football fans have gathered at the airport to block the arrival of the Premier League champion.

After a group of people passed the immigration inspection, as soon as they walked out of the terminal hall, they were immediately blocked by the fans and reporters at the scene. They asked Liverpool a series of questions, hoping to have the opportunity to be interviewed by them.

However, everyone at Liverpool only expressed their enthusiasm for the player and refused to be interviewed. Instead, they hurried back to the hotel as soon as possible to prepare for a training session in the evening.

Hours later, Liverpool appeared at Washington's JFK Memorial Stadium.

When Yang Cheng led the team to the scene, many players were already waiting above. As soon as they saw Liverpool, they immediately gave a burst of warm applause to welcome the team's arrival.

Yang Cheng stood on the sidelines during the entire training session, watching the team train for 90 minutes without participating too much.

Ronaldinho was absent. During the group confrontation, Yang Cheng first tried to use Kuyt to fill Ronaldinho's vacancy, but then used Asavin, and then Ribery, and the three players took turns to try.

If you look purely at speed, Ribery has the fastest explosive power in short distances. We have tested that his speed can keep pace with Ronaldinho and Robben. Benitez stood next to Yang Cheng and looked at the court. The players who went to training said.

Yang Cheng's offensive tactics rely on players' interspersed movement and hitting behind the opponent's defense. One of the important reasons is to test the players' movement awareness and short-distance sprinting.

Ronaldinho and Robben's 100-meter speed both reached about 100 meters, which is specifically related to their physical conditions at the time. Franck Ribery's 100-meter speed is also around. It can be said that the gap between them is very small, just a matter of a moment.

Ashavin's speed is not very fast, but his speed is mainly reflected in dribbling. It is different from our current entire offensive system and can be used as a variable. So I think if we want to fill Ronaldinho's vacancy, Try Ribery.”

Yang Cheng waved his hand towards Paul Bayer, who was directing the training in the distance, and made a changing gesture.

The players on the court immediately made adjustments. Ribery was moved to the left, Robben was moved to the right, Drogba still sprinted at the front, and Ashavin replaced Gerrard and played as a shadow forward. Position, with Carrick and Essien behind him.

Yang Cheng has been constantly changing the offensive coordination of the midfield and frontcourt in training recently, and he is more inspecting the players.

Nowadays, the most important aspect of Liverpool's offense is still Drogba. The Ivorian's suppression of the opponent's defense is really important. When there is space, he can retreat and pull out the opponent's central defender, forcing them to lù The gap behind the ball can be used by the two wingers.

Once he encounters a team that shrinks its defense, he can suppress the opponent's central defender, leaving them no time to take care of Gerrard who is inserting in the back row, or the two wingers who are cutting in from the wing. All of this is Drogba's fault. contribution.

Although Drogba has never seemed to be very eye-catching in terms of goals and other statistics, his role and progress are very obvious. Since joining Liverpool this season, he has always maintained steady progress, whether in Physical confrontation, suppressing the opponent's defense, turning around with the ball, etc., as well as his running awareness in the frontcourt, have all improved a lot.

Just like this time, he suddenly pulled to the left side of the penalty area to meet Franck Ribery. The Frenchman immediately passed the ball to his feet, but he chose to knock it back to Gerrard, then turned and pushed forward.

Gerrard did not stick to the ball and sent it directly to the top of the penalty area. Robben stopped and curled the ball.

After Drogba stopped the ball in the middle of the penalty area, he volleyed directly through the goal guarded by Reina, which attracted a wave of amazement.

The whole process progressed quickly and smoothly, and the three veteran players cooperated well with each other.

Ribery didn't do enough in the horizontal pull. We need to analyze this more in the tactical discussion meeting! Yang Cheng was obviously referring to the fact that before Ribery got the ball just now, he did not choose to go to the right, but was preparing to go for it. Dribbling the ball to the left, he was a little farther away from Drogba. Although the pass was successful in the end, it was not appropriate to run like this because Drogba had to move to the left to respond.

But this is also Drogba's advantage.

Any team, whether offensive or defensive, has a focus.

In football terminology, the horizontal direction is called pulling, and the vertical direction is called cutting. This is not without reason.

The function of horizontal pulling is to pull the opponent's defense line as much as possible, forcing the opponent's defensive players to move, exploiting holes and creating space, and then using the vertical direction of the players to hit the space created by these pullings.

The reaction on the training field just now is that Drogba, the main team's offensive focus, moved to the left to meet Ribery, which pulled the opponent's defensive focus and Agger also moved to the left, forcing the entire defense line of the substitute team to follow Ribery. This side is tilted, and during the entire movement, the defensive players cannot maintain coordination, so the flaw is exposed.

There is not enough width, and there is no disturbing pull. The opponent concentrates all the troops together and becomes monolithic, which is what many people call the iron barrel formation. This is already a nightmare for all attackers.

Having a tactical center like Drogba who is highly mobile and hard-working is a huge asset to any team. Likewise, Larsson, who was introduced by Yang Cheng this summer, is also like this. types.

It's just that Larsson and Drogba are a little different in terms of technical characteristics.

Finnan's assist ability has improved a lot! Benitez said with a smile.

In Yang Cheng's 433 tactics, the wingers are more likely to cut inside, and the full-backs are needed to advance from the wing. Last season, Liverpool often used Glen Johnson to play offensive tactics against weak teams, but When playing against strong teams, Yang Cheng will always use Finnan, whose defense is more reliable.

Perhaps spurred by Glen Johnson, Finnan has improved a lot offensively and seems to be more capable both offensively and defensively. This is definitely good news for Liverpool.

…………

…………

After the evening training session, Yang Cheng specially gave the players a short period of time to sign autographs and take photos with the fans at the scene, which immediately attracted the welcome of many fans at the scene.

However, as the person that many players most wanted to be able to contact, he chose to leave early and leave the stage to his players, which disappointed many female fans present who came specifically for him.

Returning to the hotel, Yang Cheng called members of the coaching staff to gather in his room to discuss tactics.

New players have the characteristics of new players. Through a lot of training and games, they can discover their characteristics, then help them integrate into the team, and transform their characteristics into the team's weapons. This is what every head coach must do. things.

The whole meeting lasted for more than two hours before it dispersed.

After the meeting, we made an appointment to have dinner together and then parted ways.

Yang Cheng took a shower in the room and changed into dry sportswear. When he came out, he found a missed call on his phone. He checked it and found it was Heidi Klum.

Is something wrong? Yang Cheng called back and asked with a smile, I was taking a shower just now.

Can't I call you if nothing happens? Heidi Klum asked with a giggle.

Usually you call me when you have something to do! Yang Cheng was a little surprised.

Heidi Klum has always been a very enterprising woman, she is not the kind of person who loves others.

The other party didn't know if he was reflecting on himself, but in the end he just stated the purpose of the call.

Alista Company invites you to Avril Lavigne's celebration party. Do you have time? she asked.

Avril Lavigne's previous single has already aroused great repercussions before it was released. The record company has always hoped to strike while the iron is hot and cooperate with Yang Cheng. Heidi Klum agreed for Yang Cheng because their company currently We are also cooperating with Avril Lavigne to develop clothing, perfume, cosmetics and other projects in Avril Lavigne's name.

Since the two parties cooperated closely with each other, Avril personally invited Yang Cheng to write songs for her again. Yang Cheng could not refuse, so he could only bite the bullet and plagiarize two more English songs that he liked very much in his previous life.

One is [u]. This song has appeared in World Football. The background star is Beckham, who is called Beiying by countless football fans. Yang Cheng likes that episode very much.

There is another thing that even Yang Cheng himself doesn’t know. Kelly Clarkson and others, the original writers of this song, were originally planning to write such a song, but it was just a simple prototype. But later Because they were looking for Avril Lavigne to write the song Breakaway, they happened to hear the melody and thought it was very similar, so they eventually gave up on their original idea.

Because of this, fortunately, the song did not crash.

As for the other song, it is the South Africa World Cup promotional song [Win the Victory] that is familiar to all football fans.

But Yang Cheng also said, just these two songs, he will never write songs again.

Let's talk about it when I have time! Yang Cheng was not interested in this.

Just because he likes to listen to music does not mean that he likes to make music. This is the same as the reason why people who like to drink milk do not need to raise a cow at home.

I know! Heidi Klum smiled slightly, paused for a moment, and asked quietly: Are you angry with me?

Angry? Why? Yang Cheng felt puzzled.

Heidi Klum apologized on the phone and said, I agreed to their song writing without telling you in advance.

You're so stupid, silly girl! Yang Cheng interrupted her with a smile, If I wanted to be angry with you, I wouldn't answer your call. Also, we have been an old married couple for so many years. You Don’t you know me yet?”

The other party immediately burst into laughter, very happily, I knew you weren't so stingy!

Hey, why do you make me feel like you're fooling me? Yang Cheng deliberately pretended to be loud.

How dare I, Caesar! Heidi Klum replied.

Both of them were laughing, and it could be seen that Heidi Klum was a little worried at first, but now she has let go.

Walking to the window sill of the hotel room and looking at the night view of Washington in the distance, he spoke softly into the phone: No matter what you do, I will never blame you!

Over the years, Heidi Klum has always been by his side, tolerated so many of his rumors, never interfered in his affairs, and given him so much freedom. What else could he ask for?

There was silence on the other side of the phone for a while, and then Heidi Klum's complaint came again, I'm going to die, saying this for no reason.

At this moment, the German woman on the other side of the phone was wiping tears because of this sentence.

I didn't say anything! Yang Cheng chuckled, I said it back then, you have the final say in business matters. If you let me be a luǒ model, then I have to sacrifice my appearance!

Go, luǒmodel? Is anyone watching? With your body! Heidi Klum deliberately mocked him, but she was happy in her heart.

Oh, beauty, as an idol and a powerful person, I feel very sad about your doubts. What's wrong with my body? I need muscles and muscles, height and height, and a well-proportioned body. I am 1.8 meters tall and weigh 70 kilograms. ,standard!

Heidi Klum on the other side of the phone was made to laugh by Yang Cheng, and couldn't help but ridicule him again.

The two of them were talking on the phone, making fun of each other, and they were having a lot of fun.

It wasn't until they came to ask Yang Cheng to go to dinner together that she said she wanted to hang up the phone.

Hello!

Just when Yang Cheng was about to press it down, the microphone rang again.

What's the matter? Yang Cheng put the phone to his ear again.

He heard an um from the phone, and then a busy tone, which made Yang Cheng confused.

Hey, Darling, should I sing a song to say goodbye? (To be continued, provided by the ghost of the sailing update team) Bring @Lan Die'er] Click on the grass @Hot~Shelme~
