Strong Waist

Chapter 18 Changing Values

In the conference room, members of the coaching staff including Wenger gathered again.

The purpose of their meeting was to analyze the secrets of the team's sudden changes.

Wenger was sitting in the main seat, holding a pen in his right hand, tapping the table gently, and said, "Who can tell me what is the reason for this change."

In response, the coaches looked at each other.

They have been racking their brains to think about this issue.

But I just didn’t figure it out.

There is just one more Lucky in this lineup, but how could there be such a huge change!

Because of a Lucky?

This is nonsense!

Football is a sport for eleven people. No matter how strong one person is, he cannot achieve this kind of change.

But they can be sure that Lucky is the source of change!

So, what did this guy do?

"I still don't understand. We have tried this lineup before, with Song and Ramsey as defensive midfielders and Arteta not retreating to defend, but I am convinced that it did not have this effect at all!"

"That's right! The tactics are the same, and there is only one change in the personnel structure. But why are there two completely different effects?"

"Could it be Le's long ball that had the effect?"

"No way! Two kicks in one game, and that's not a reason!"

"Maybe it's his tackling that makes Arteta feel more confident?"

"We also asked Arteta not to retreat in defense before, and in his personal performance in the two games, except for stability and organization, he has not changed much. This is no reason!"

"Robin exploded?"

The other coaches looked like they were stupid.

"How do you explain the problem that Robin's burst can only radiate offense and the defense becomes solid?"

"Guys, this is not a single change, it's a chain reaction of changes across the board for a reason we don't understand. This change strengthens the offense, strengthens the linkage and solidifies the defense, and we The reason must be found!”

What a worry the coaches are!

When they were analyzed player by player, there were no changes in tactics, playing style, or position.

But why does it look like this when combined?

What's the reason?

The coaches started pulling out their hair.

Wenger also frowned and thought about the root cause.

But no matter how we analyze it from the perspective of tactics and lineup, we can't find the reason.

He couldn't help but rub his eyebrows with a headache, and turned his head. He found that his good friend, assistant coach Patrice, was staring at a certain document with excitement.

Wenger couldn't help but raise his eyebrows and said, "Have you found the reason?"

As soon as he finished speaking, all the coaches turned their heads.

They are now like the curious cat, unable to get the answer, which is a pain.

Patrice looked up just in time to see the fierce eyes of the coaches.

It's like he won't give up without giving a reasonable explanation.

In response, Patrice smiled and said, "We all think about the problem too complicatedly. There is no need to rise to the tactical level."

"The tactics are still the same, but there are some numerical increases based on the basics!"

The coaches said in unison: "What value?"

Patrice smiled, raised his index finger and said, "Running distance!"

Patrice hit the table with a bang and laughed; "This is the running data, not tactics or any other reason, it is the change of running with their feet!"

After saying that, Patrice stood up and came to the tactical board and attached eleven red buttons, forming a 4-2-3-1 formation.

Immediately, he pushed forward the four buttons on the front, and inserted another button from the back waist.

"This is our previous offensive method. We put five main offensive players on offense and use quick passing and cutting to break the opponent's goal."

He pointed to the center circle and the defensive line; "At the same time, the defense presses forward to protect this area."

"This resulted in us forming an aggressive formation, with the front line being too crowded and the defense empty."

Immediately, he changed the red buttons and rearranged them.

It is still a five-man frontcourt, but there is an extra red button in the center circle area, and the four defenders are still in their own half, standing in an arc.

He picked up the extra button in the middle circle and said, "This is the key. This button represents Le. When others attack, Le will stand in this area and keep wandering. Remember, it's wandering! Le's interception awareness makes He is enough to protect this area and even penetrate directly to the front to pull when attacking! ”

"At this time, our personnel are distributed in every corner, and even more, this last protection mechanism stands in the middle circle."

Patrice played with the red button representing Lucky and said; "This is a big gate. When the opponent is destroying or counterattacking, he will become the first line of defense. Lekai's excellent interception awareness allows him to be the first line of defense." Time to find the spot and control it, giving the defense enough time to react.”

"The next step is the key!"

After Patrice reminded him, he pulled back the two wing and three back waist buttons from the front court, together with the button representing Lucky, and said;

"While Le was fighting for time, the other three people had already begun to prepare. Arshavin, Walcott, Ramsey and Le, these four returned at full speed to support."

He pulled back the four buttons and stuffed them into the penalty area, filling the penalty area completely.

"We can form an eight-man defensive network and put eight people into the penalty area. Believe me, no one will choose to fight head-on!"

The coaches were stunned.

They didn’t expect that the root of everything was so simple ‘running’?

"What is their average running distance per game?" Wenger said suddenly.

Patras shook his head and said, "I couldn't record everything, but Le and Ramsey's half-time running distance was no less than 7 kilometers, and it was in the second half!"

The coaches were silent.

What is the longest distance covered in a Premier League game?

05 kilometers!

And now Lucky and Ramsey contributed 7 kilometers of data in the second half, which means that they were running desperately in the first half when they were full of physical energy.

These two may even have exceeded the 14 kilometers running distance in a single game.

Football is a running sport.

Everything on offense and defense also needs to be done on the run.

It can be said that this is the most fundamental factor.

It's just that it's so ordinary that they forget it has this attribute!

"Why couldn't we play before? Because we didn't run enough!" Patrice criticized; "We can see that Song will always join the attack, sometimes even a little aggressive, but he will only rush forward. I won’t choose to go back to defense!”

“Guys, laziness is contagious!”

"As a defensive midfielder, Song did not return to defense, so Arshavin and Walcott naturally gave up!"

"And Song can't even play with this lineup!"

Patrice said sonorously; "He doesn't have Le's top-notch sense of interception and tough style!"

"In my opinion, the latter is even more valuable than the former!"

After speaking, he glanced at Wenger, who nodded calmly.

At this time, Wenger is no longer excessively pursuing technical football. Under multiple blows, Wenger has gradually begun to look for changes after introspection.

At the end of the day's training, the players left.

Although the massacre happened just a few days ago, the expressions of Arsenal players became much more cheerful at this time.

Perhaps due to the changes in this training match, the overall atmosphere became much more relaxed.

Even General Fan, who had always been bitter and resentful, showed a happy expression and even hummed a song.

Obviously this training match was a lot of fun.

Lucky also gained certain recognition from the first-team players through this training match.

At least, they won't neglect themselves like before.

Many players such as Theo Walcott, Ramsey, Per Mertesacker, Szczesny and others took the initiative to communicate with Lucky.

Of course, some people don't like Lucky.

Alexander Song's face looked very ugly, and he felt very bad about Lucky's changes in the main team.

In addition to the sense of urgency, there was also a hint of anger, so he shook his head and left with a sullen face.

In this regard, Van Persie also wanted to make adjustments, but Song didn't appreciate it at all.

For the first time, Van Persie wanted to act like a captain but was rejected, which made him feel a little embarrassed.

But he still praised Lucky.

Lucky's two long passes today were both comfortable and tricky.

If he hadn't started a little slowly, it might have turned into goals. In this training match, he could also score two goals.

Of course, he doesn't care about scoring goals in training matches. What he cares about is whether Lucai can pass the ball to him in future games like he did today!

Suddenly there were many more people transporting artillery shells.

Van Persie is naturally very happy.

Lucky was ready to leave after packing his things.

After training, Chamberlain disappeared.

This guy has been a little depressed since that game.

Apparently he has not yet recovered from the shock of the massacre.

But Lucky couldn't help with this kind of thing, and Chamberlain could only adjust it by himself.

After walking out of the training room, Lucky did not go towards the door. Instead, he came to the railing on the side and chose to climb over the wall.

There were many angry Arsenal fans blocking the door.

If others drive away, there will be no danger.

Lucky was alone and wearing an Arsenal uniform. He was not sure whether the angry Arsenal fans would anger him.

When the time comes, it will be miserable if you are surrounded and beaten.

For this reason, he still chose to climb over the wall!

After all, safety comes first!
