The FA Cup semi-final is in full swing.

Chelsea players are both depressed and discouraged. Every time they play against Millwall, they can't play the tactical effect that the head coach wants them to play at all, because the opponent will bring unexpected effects to the game.

The Millwall players are full of energy and are very aggressive in fighting, especially the three players in the midfield today: De Rossi, Pedretti, and Alonso.

The midfield interception of these three played the effect that Aldridge hoped to see.

That is tough! iron blood!

Bravely face every collision!

They provided a strong guarantee for the defense, so that the double central defender combination of Metzelder and Barzagli had no worries, and the local defense always had a numerical advantage.

Whenever the interception is successful, Millwall will play a fast break, and Lamore will go through the needle. On the striker, today it seems that Lamore and Villa are partnering in the striker. In fact, Kaka and Lamore are misplaced in the game. Kaka is the one who will really rush forward and launch a deadly attack!

After conceding a goal in the opening game, Chelsea had to attack to save the defeat. Ranieri also continued to direct the players to use the width of the field to advance the offense, but the Chelsea players found that their main attack on one side would also fall into the double-teaming of Millwall. , unless, they can quickly turn the offense from one side to the other.

Chelsea does not have a top-level two-wing configuration, and there is no numerical advantage in the center of their formation. They seem to be more evenly positioned. Millwall, by contrast, was partially flawed. But there are changes in the game. The running positions of Millwall players can always focus on building advantages locally.

De Rossi guards the center of the midfielder, Lamour guards the center of the midfield, Pedretti and Alonso have the largest range of activities, whichever side Chelsea is playing, Millwall can send out manpower to support the side and form a double team The trend of siege!

In the 28th minute, Zola tried to cut inside and broke through. He just passed Pedretti. De Rossi bravely stepped forward to break the ball and knocked Zola to the ground. The referee didn't say anything. De Rossi intercepted the ball and touched the ball first. collide.

De Rossi passed the ball to Alonso who ran out of space, and the latter led the ball and turned around and quickly pulled sideways to find Larmor who was free.

Lamour took the ball and ran long distances along the left lane,

Chelsea's formation leaned this way, and in front of the back line, Lamour crossed the ball to Kaka.

Kaka dribbles the ball not forward, but dribbles horizontally. Chelsea's central defensive back heads out, trying to tackle Kaka. Kaka was caught in a three-way trap, but he didn't panic at all, not at all. The longer he played under Aldridge, the more excited he became, the more excited he was, because playing football on the field, his head is always clear, not at all. Will be confused, he doesn't even need to look, he knows that at this moment, Chelsea's defense has been torn apart!

The key is whether he can play his due role.

When the encirclement had narrowed to a position close to two meters, Kaka calmly passed the ball between Desailly's legs. Behind Desailly, there was an empty space. There was no one there, but after Kaka passed the ball, a group The figure running diagonally intersects with Chelsea's back line in reverse!

Villa!

Facing Cudicini, Villa volleyed and blasted out. Cudicini fell to the ground and made a block. He really caught the ball, but he couldn't fully hug the ball, and the ball rolled slowly in front of him. , Villa rushed up again and made a supplementary shot, sending the ball firmly into the goal.

Calabash baby screamed and rushed to the sidelines to celebrate after scoring a goal. Kaka was also trembling with excitement, and her legs rushed towards Villa......

Millwall made another victory! Kaka's wonderful pass assisted Villa to score! Andy, I don't know if you have a feeling that Millwall is playing a brand new 442, just like someone analyzed and pointed out that the England national Under the guidance of Hall, the team is actually playing 442.

Martin, yes, I have also noticed that from the perspective of formation and player movement, Millwall's 442, the double striker is actually Kaka and Villa, and Kaka is slightly behind. But I must say, now Millwall Wall's 442 is completely different from the 442 that the England national team has been pointed out by Owen and McManaman, and the whole system is completely different.

The 442 in our impression should be like that of Manchester United, with two wings flying together, a big tall man on the front line, and a fast horse, a balanced formation, and reasonable distribution of player positions, which can theoretically occupy every point on the pitch. , but the theoretically balanced 442 has gradually begun to out of date, because such a monotonous and rough style of play makes it difficult to gain an advantage on a high-level stage, and it is too easy to be thoroughly researched and restricted by the opponent. Now Milwaukee is on the field Larmor's 442 obviously has no inheritance and development relationship with the British traditional 442. It is a brand new 442. When you see that Larmor's activity area is all over the midfield, a striker like Villa can pull the side to support him. When the penalty area hits, you know it's not the 442 we're used to, absolutely not.

Is Hall creating a new set of technical and tactical play? Think about it carefully. When Ronaldinho was restricted by key points, when he started to focus on support, Millwall's main lineup was often , In fact, it is no longer 433, but 442, but they can achieve perfect switching without sticking to the formation system.

Of course, that's because the level of Ronaldinho, Nedved, Pirlo, Henry, and Larsson has surpassed this level. With perfect teamwork, they can play whatever they want. Okay, crazy frontcourt changes, you can call it total attack and total defense, formation? Is it important?

Yes, so I said that now we can see the prospect of it being carried forward in the Millwall substitute tactical system, just like the British 442, most teams can use it, if it can be realized, Hall will play in Europe. The historical status of football, and even world football, will rise to a higher level!

Aldridge was very excited about the team scoring the second goal, and kept clapping his hands to signal the team to work harder and not to relax!

The 442 that the narrator is discussing?

That's what he's been trying to do since a year ago.

As for thoughts. About two years ago. When paying attention to the England national team, it also germinated in the bottom of my heart.

British 442 has a long history. It has a profound impact. It seems that it is everywhere in every corner of British football. It has been tried and tested and has an immediate effect. Among the 10 teams, at least 2 must still play the traditional British style. It must be mainly British 442. Two full-backs, one tall and one fast forward, and a dirty and fierce defender.

When the British rated Ronaldinho as the best player of the season, but placed Ronaldinho on the left midfielder, the fans would talk about Ronaldinho's victory over Giggs, but Aldridge despised him, presumably other players in Europe The country, as well as Brazilian fans, must not accept it.

Edge?

If Ronaldinho was a traditional British winger, he would definitely not be at the height he is today.

Aldridge hated the British 442. Especially after becoming the coach of the national team.

You know, England itself doesn't have many talented players. But players like McManaman, Joe Cole, and Scholes, whom England needed most, were destroyed one by one in the original history. The reason is the rigidity of the British 442.

It is unimaginable for a talented player like McManaman to be squeezed out of the national team by Bamby, and it is even more unimaginable for a coach to use Scholes on the wing.

When you are limited to the 442 frame where the offensive and defensive balance is like England's traditional kingly way, creative players like McManaman, Scholes, and Joe Cole can't play their due strength. In the performance of the same role players, there are some people who are better than them, such as playing a full-back. Bambi will perform better than McManaman, but Aldrich is not even interested in recruiting Bambi for a test. Yes: I don’t want full-backs, as long as McManaman has a wider space and a more free stage, he can contribute more to the offense than the two full-backs combined!

Aldridge has been giving full play to his advantages, not only recruiting talents in advance, but also leading the tactical trend.

Although this kind of leadership needs to be combined with the background of the times, it also has inherent advantages. Just like when 325 ruled the world half a century ago, if someone could come up with 442 with a balanced offense and defense, would 325 still be able to crush it strongly? No, just thinking about the offensive aggressiveness of one high and one fast combined with wide crosses, 442 will ruthlessly tear apart the defensive combination of 3 defenders and 2 midfielders like a beast.

When did British Tradition 442 end up in the trash? The original history was on the eve of 2008, when England missed the European Cup!

In addition to the confusion and predicament of English football itself, Spain and Barcelona set off a football revolution at that time, ruling the aesthetics and culture of football.

Since then, 4231, 433 can be seen everywhere like mushrooms after a rain. After another 5 years, even the default formation has changed from 442 to 433. This is the revolution, and the trend of football tactical development, tactics created by more advanced tactical concepts The system overturns the old pattern.

Is 442 dead?

How can it be?

How can a tactical system formation that can survive and develop for nearly half a century in the history of football go into the grave so easily?

But the previous system is indeed outdated. 442 is not resurgent, but reborn from the cocoon.

Ten years later, the most powerful force in football belongs to Bayern Munich, as well as the La Liga duo, while the dominant Barcelona was sunk by Bayern Munich, Spain ended in a disastrous World Cup defeat, and Real Madrid regained its advantage in the national derby. In terms of tactical system, The victorious side used 442, but this is beyond recognition 442, regardless of the TV broadcast, how the head coach arranges the starting formation, the most critical core, when it plays a role, is actually 442, just like watching Bayern Munich, you have to regard Müller as a striker. When the Netherlands beat Spain, the striker next to General Van Gaal was Arjen Robben. Van Gaal's 352 is actually a variant of 442. The striker next to Real Madrid's center Benzema is c Luo, as for Bell, who was either transporting shells or making individual raids, most of his responsibilities and functions were far from those of Zhengyin forwards.

How did this new type of 442 crawl out of the grave and be reborn from the cocoon? It is due to the two previous events that had an earthquake-like impact on football. Inter Milan won the Champions League in 10 years, and Chelsea ruled Europa in 2012. They both eliminated the then king team Barcelona with their ultimate defense, but that The ultimate defense cannot survive forever, so on this basis, the minimum basis for cracking the pass and control is developed and extended, which is a new type of 442. The midfielder presses wildly, quickly advances after the strangulation is successful, the center responds, and suddenly left Another striker, suddenly right and unpredictable, made a fatal blow.

Just like Millwall playing against Chelsea today, it not only guarantees the defense, but also hides the offensive point deeply in the offense. There is no doubt that this tactical concept is more advanced and has higher requirements on the players. The midfielders run in a wide range without hesitating their physical strength, and change to other teams, how many teams can do it? How do the players themselves accept under the old concepts and dogma?

Fortunately, Aldrich's disciples were all taught by him, and they were obedient and willing to accept it, because Aldrich has another title given by the media: Kingmaker!

Every young player hopes that Aldridge will give him more guidance, give him higher requirements, and then work hard on his own. Maybe after success, he will become the next king of green shades!

Aldridge looked at Chelsea, who were starting to panic on the field, and Chelsea, who were attacking chaotically. He was not surprised at all. He has too many honors, but he is still creating and composing his own brilliance. It was stolen, but he has a thick skin and doesn't care, no one knows anyway.

Now, he is going to lead the trend of football tactics! (to be continued..) ()
