Super Coach

\u003e Are you really leaving?

This simple sentence has become what Yang Cheng has heard the most in the past few days, and his ears are almost numb from hearing it.

The listener is the same person, but the person and place asking the questions are completely different.

This time it was at the Palace of the King Power in Monaco, before preparations for the UEFA Champions League group stage draw ceremony. Ferguson, who was sitting next to Yang Cheng, asked him this question with a concerned look on his face. It was obvious that what was revealed in his expression was sincere.

Sir, I can finally confirm that we are good friends! Yang Cheng sighed as if he had seen the right person. At least you don't gloat about others' misfortunes like some people do. He must be secretly rejoicing now. I If he leaves, he can be the boss!

As soon as Yang Cheng said these words, Mourinho, who was sitting across from Ferguson, suddenly 898 One Thing Falls One Thing's face froze, his smile turned completely livid, and the expression he looked at Yang Cheng was full of murderous intent. If he was given a chance at this time, Maybe he would actually consider sticking a knife directly into his heart and stabbing this bastard to death.

Mourinho's expression was very interesting. Ferguson and others wanted to laugh when they saw it. They felt that this guy was really too weird.

I have told you many times that I hope to work hard and fulfill all my wishes while I am still young. When I am old, I will retire and enjoy life, at least not like my brother. You worked so hard! Yang Cheng patted Ferguson on the shoulder with an expression that said I don't feel sorry for you.

Get out! Ferguson slapped his hand away. He couldn't tell that Yang Cheng was teasing him.

Yang Cheng quickly retracted his hand and smiled at Ferguson. The latter had no choice but to look at him, but he was upset in his heart. Why did he vomit like this bastard after he drank alcohol? It's so bitter that he talks about these things all day long, making himself a famous commander without any grace at all.

But Ferguson didn't reflect at all. Don’t you often make fun of Yang Cheng?

As a good friend, you make fun of me and I make fun of you?

But if I think about it carefully, what if Yang Cheng really left. Then the football field will undoubtedly become much more boring. At least there will be no Caesar in the football world in the future? With Yang Cheng now the number one figure, Ferguson and others will undoubtedly lose one less opponent and one less direction to strive for.

I know you guys don't need to pretend to be reluctant to leave. In fact, you are so happy in your hearts that you wish I could get out of here. I understand your thoughts too well.

As long as I am still here, you will never win the championship, so now you want to shout at the top of your lungs to celebrate.

Seeing Yang Cheng's appearance, Mourinho nodded seriously, Hey, you really understand me!

Yang Cheng was choked by this and was speechless. Everyone laughed when they saw it, these two were used to fighting.

You're leaving this time, are you really not coming back? Wenger also asked with concern. After all, Yang Cheng is still so young.

Even if I come back, I will definitely not be your competitor! Yang Cheng smiled slightly. He didn't have any specific plans yet, so he didn't want to say everything and leave some room.

***, your decision is really admirable and hateful at the same time! Ferguson couldn't help but scolded him.

The main thing I admire is Yang Cheng's big heart. He was able to resolutely choose to leave at the peak and most glorious time of his life and career. This kind of big heart is not something that ordinary people can achieve. At least Ferguson did not successfully retire completely when he was 60 years old. He knew in his heart that he was still somewhat less broad-minded than the current Yang Cheng.

As for hating him, that's for sure. Over the years, they have always won less and lost more against Yang Cheng, and overall they have suffered big losses. If Yang Cheng continues to coach, then they may still have a chance to get revenge, but if Yang Cheng retires, who will they seek revenge from in the future?

It has to be said that Yang Cheng retired bravely when he was at his peak, or quit the field of professional coaching. This has to be said to be a very wise decision. At least anyone who talks about Yang Cheng in the future will only remember his glorious history and his Brilliant achievements.

But if he continues to stay and coach, he will inevitably encounter Waterloo and failure.

There is a saying that is right, an earthen pot cannot be broken away from the edge of a well, and a general will inevitably die in battle. Is it not a wise choice for Yang Cheng to choose to retreat bravely?

You see more clearly than I do! Ferguson patted Yang Cheng on the shoulder and praised him.

Yang Cheng smiled slightly and said nothing. Ferguson was a senior he respected very much, even now, he still is!

In the past, UEFA's annual awards ceremony always awarded awards to the best goalkeeper, defender, midfielder, forward and best player. However, last year's French Football Ballon d'Or and FIFA's World Player of the Year After the merger, UEFA also cooperated with the European Sports Media Alliance to launch a new European Best Player Award.

In order to highlight this award, UEFA announced the cancellation of the individual awards in the other four positions, focusing on the best players in Europe, and even vaguely showed signs of using this award to compete with the FIFA Ballon d'Or. The selection is based on players who play in leagues governed by UEFA and is voted on by journalists from 53 European countries and regions.

However, what is very different from previous selections is the change in selection rules.

The selection of the best player in Europe is divided into two rounds of voting. Journalists from 53 countries and regions vote. Points are awarded according to ranking. The top three players automatically enter the second round of voting. According to the previous official data, the top three players The names are all included by Real Madrid, namely Cristiano Ronaldo, David Silva and Kaká.

In other words, regardless of the results of the second round of voting, the first European Player of the Year will go to the Bernabeu.

What’s interesting is that during the awarding and drawing ceremony, the new UEFA President Olsen announced that reporters from 53 member states would conduct on-site voting to vote on the rankings of these three players. Each person would have a You can choose to abstain from voting, but you cannot vote for two players at the same time.

The whole session was very lively, as if it were a festival. Three players were specially invited to the stage for a simple interview, which was considered as a canvass for votes. They talked a lot about the internal affairs of Real Madrid. Naturally, they also talked about Yang Cheng’s possible performance this season. Leave the topic of Real Madrid after that. Players generally expressed the hope that Yang Cheng will continue to stay.

He is an incredible head coach. He not only leads us to win, he also teaches us how to win. He not only allows us to taste success. He also allows us to understand how to be successful. He also teaches us how to win. We have established a team structure and ideas that can maintain long-term success. This is undoubtedly the most valuable asset he left us!

When David Silva was interviewed by the host, he was full of praise for Yang Cheng.

We all share the same belief that Real Madrid will be stronger this year than ever before!

But unfortunately, David Silva got 11 votes. Tied for second place with Kaka, but still unable to prevent Cristiano Ronaldo, who received 30 votes alone, from becoming the first European Player of the Year. One of the 53 reporters abstained from voting because it was too difficult to choose. for 52 votes.

When Ronaldinho received the award, he once again expressed his hope that Yang Cheng would continue to stay. I firmly believe that everyone who loves football hopes that he can continue to stay. Because he is the greatest master in the world. Coach, he should always be with us and always be our leader!

Everyone at the scene immediately responded with warm applause to Xiao Luo's acceptance speech. This is obviously not only for him, but also for Caesar sitting in the front row. He has almost become a phenomenon in today's football.

After the awards for the best players in Europe were awarded, the draw ceremony for the Champions League group stage followed.

As the strongest team in football today, Real Madrid has undoubtedly become a headache for all teams. No one wants to be assigned to the same group as Real Madrid, especially Milan, who is unfortunately placed in the second tier. Strong teams such as Manchester City in the third tier know very well that being assigned to a group with Real Madrid means devastation.

This also makes all Real Madrid players and management feel a burst of pride. Once upon a time, Real Madrid could be said to be bullied by everyone in the Champions League. It had defended the top 16 of the Champions League for many years, and even teams like Lyon dared to attack Real Madrid. The image of a wealthy team was completely gone.

However, after Yang Cheng took office. He directly shouted that he would make all teams that encounter Real Madrid feel afraid in the future, and make all European teams avoid Real Madrid. No doubt, he has fulfilled his promise now!

Real Madrid was eventually assigned to the same group as Lyon, Ajax, and Dinamo Zagreb. None of the three opponents were strong. Yang Cheng asked himself that he should be able to win the opponent steadily. He was even sure in his heart that Real Madrid I have already obtained the right to qualify in advance.

Be careful, don't finish second in the group! Ferguson chuckled and looked at Wenger and Mourinho.

Both of them tacitly shook their heads and smiled bitterly. Real Madrid should be the first in the group. If anyone accidentally gets the second place in the group, it is very likely that they will encounter Real Madrid directly in the knockout round. That will not be fun. thing.

Then let's meet in the top 8! Yang Cheng stood up with a smile, casually pulled the button of his suit, buttoned it, stood up and walked out of the lottery venue, with that expression and posture, he was indescribably confident.

You wear a suit, and others also wear suits, but he dresses better than you and is more elegant than you, Jose! Ferguson tilted his head and watched Yang Cheng walk away before teasing Mourinho with a smile. A handful.

The latter also happened to stand up. After hearing this, he gave up halfway in the action of buttoning the button, snorted at Ferguson, and walked directly in front of him without even giving him a look.

Ferguson laughed. Mourinho's Achilles' heel was Yang Cheng. Who made the Portuguese fall into the hands of Yang Cheng in consecutive Champions League finals? Perhaps this should be called one thing descending upon another!

There is a lot of controversy about Yang Cheng's transformation of Real Madrid this season.

Some people say that Real Madrid's current tactics are more aggressive, more offensive, and more powerful. Many times, the entire game gives people the feeling of adults ravaging children, and the opponent has no way to parry. Regardless of this, It was very obvious in the two games against Barcelona in the Spanish Super Cup and in the Santiago Bernabeu Cup.

But some people say that Yang Cheng's transformation is not very ideal because in order to keep it compact, he pressed the back line too hard, especially blocking the opponent's 32-meter area. This is tantamount to exposing a large swath of space behind you. If in this situation, the opponent kicks the ball directly to the frontcourt. Paired with a speedy player, it's almost a one-on-one hit.

In fact, no strategy is perfect or risk-free from any perspective.

If you want to attack, you have to expose the loopholes in your defense. You have to defend. It is a recognized fact that you should not invest too much in offense. However, truly outstanding top coaches often make trade-offs when considering tactics and avoid flaws as much as possible.

For example, when Real Madrid's defense presses too far forward, Yang Cheng's strategy is to tighten the frontcourt and press.

If the front line of defense presses to the 32-meter area, that is to say. In this 32-meter area, there are a total of 21 players from both sides, including a goalkeeper from the defending team. This even takes up all the space to some extent.

Therefore, if Real Madrid wants to avoid the opponent's long pass counterattack to the maximum extent, then all players need to actively engage in on-the-spot counterattacks. Precisely because the three lines are compressed very densely, the on-the-spot counterattack effect is very significant, because regardless of the opponent Whoever gets the ball will immediately be pressed by Real Madrid players, trying not to give him time to think and buffer.

This is a bit like Barcelona in Yang Cheng's previous life. Many teams played against Barcelona and knew that as long as one person could hold the ball in intensive defense and pass it out. It's enough to destroy Barcelona, ​​but why are there only a handful of teams that can do this?

The reason lies precisely in Barcelona's counterattack and close pressing in the frontcourt.

High-intensity oppression has become an inevitable part of today's football tactics, and the Real Madrid that Yang Cheng has carved out over the past five years is even more expert in this area. Therefore, Real Madrid is not afraid of counterattacks, but can avoid them to the greatest extent. Fight back.

Or, before the opponent finds an opportunity to counterattack. Real Madrid's offense is enough to destroy the opponent's defensive will!

Attack is the best defense. This is absolutely true for Real Madrid now!

In the European Super Cup match against Porto, Porto's tactics actually wanted to play defensive counterattack. As soon as they got the ball, they went directly to Moutinho, hoping that the latter could pass the ball out to Hulk and others in front. The striker hits Real Madrid's counterattack.

But what about the actual effect?

When Porto's defense was not resolute enough, Real Madrid scored in just 10 minutes.

After Iniesta received a pass from De La Red in the midfield, he formed a one-two with Kaká, tearing apart the opponent's defense, and made a precise diagonal pass behind him, like a sharp scalpel. , opened a loophole in Porto's defense, and accurately found Ronaldinho, who came up from the left at high speed. The Portuguese volleyed with a powerful kick about 15 meters in front of the goal.

The ball's direction was slightly higher, but it hit the net accurately, 1:0!

This goal also completely disrupted Porto's plan. Their defense was unable to stop Real Madrid's attack.

According to their pre-game thinking, they would first stabilize their defense and then slowly plan to counterattack. However, during the game, they found that Real Madrid was pulling and looking for gaps and passing threatening balls throughout the game, which made them exhausted. , Moutinho, let alone looking for a gap, is simply using himself as an engineering midfielder.

The forwards in the frontcourt have to rush to support the defense in the backcourt. Who else has enough time to move?

In the 39th minute, midfielder Sousa made a mistake in returning the ball due to harassment from Kaká. After Thiago Silva got the ball, he made a precise diagonal pass and accurately hoisted the ball into the edge of the opponent's penalty area. Messi After getting rid of the defensive player, he went straight to the penalty area, stopped the ball, picked the ball, and pushed the ball. The whole action was done in one go. The ball went straight from the attacking goalkeeper to the goal, 2:0!

Porto completely collapsed. They expected Real Madrid to be very strong, but they definitely did not expect it to be this strong. They didn't even have a chance to easily control the ball in Real Madrid's half. Often, as soon as the ball entered Real Madrid's half, it would immediately be reversed. If the ball is forced to be passed back, it is either an offensive error or the front is blocked, and the ball must be passed back to reorganize.

This kind of result of being beaten violently by the opponent in the half court was definitely something Porto did not expect, especially as Villas-Boas, who led Porto with outstanding performance last season and was labeled as Mourinho II, he I really didn't expect Real Madrid's tactical attack power to be so strong this season.

In fact, it is not difficult to guess that Cristiano Ronaldo, Aguero, Messi, Kaká, David Silva, and Iniesta are the six most outstanding attackers in the world. Formations and echelons are absolutely a nightmare for any defense. They have the ability to find or create gaps and loopholes in any kind of defense.

When Real Madrid launched a frenzied attack at the beginning of the second half and scored two goals against Porto in one breath, Villas-Boas really felt helpless and sad, because even if his team defended, they could not defend Real Madrid. Attack, how to talk about counterattack?

Moreover, Real Madrid's defense, Ramos, Thiago Silva and Arbeloa, are very fast, defensive and predictive, and Porto's players really have no advantage over them.

Falling behind in all aspects, Villas-Boas and his Porto can only swallow the bitter pill of defeat!

Last season's UEFA Cup champions were beaten 0:4 by last season's Champions League champions, and lost this season's European Super Cup in despair. Real Madrid used this game to win the pre-season title. The two major cup champions have fired the first shot of the new season.
