Chapter 142: Offense, offense, offense!


"Master Huan!"
When Yang Huan walked into the team's coaching room, Bielsa and others had just arrived.
When everyone saw Yang Huan, they all stood up and said hello.
"It's okay, you have a meeting, I just came to listen."
After speaking, he walked to the corner and sat down, looking like he didn't even intend to participate.
Bielsa nodded slightly towards Yang Huan.
The reason why Yang Huan appeared at the Stepwood Training Base today was because of a phone call from Bielsa yesterday.
Since Chelsea were drawn out by the draw, there has been a strange atmosphere in the Southampton team.
Some players are confident, but some players seem very nervous and even a little timid.
In addition, two strange preparation thoughts appeared in the team.
Some people think that when Southampton plays Chelsea at home, it should be chosen to tighten up. This will have a better chance of winning. After all, Chelsea's recent offense is not particularly ideal, and it is not good to support Torres.
However, some people think that Southampton's tactical style has always been unrestrained and gorgeous offensive football, and it is not Southampton's style at all to play it away.
There is nothing wrong with both tactical thinking, both are to defeat the opponent, but the way of thinking about the problem is different.
In front of the tactical board, Bielsa stretched out his right index finger to support the glasses on the bridge of his nose, glanced at the people below, and after only staying on Yang Huan in the corner for a while, he began to enter the subject of the meeting.
"Ancelotti's Chelsea were undoubtedly the strongest attacking team in the Premier League last season. In total, they scored 103 goals in 38 rounds of the Premier League. This is amazing. Offensive ability."
Everyone present had a grim face.
Averaged 2.71 goals per game, this kind of attack is indeed quite amazing in the Premier League, far higher than other teams such as Manchester United.
"I watched all Chelsea games this season..."
Bielsa's words surprised everyone present.
This season Chelsea has played more than 40 matches from warm-up matches to Premier League, League Cup, FA Cup, UEFA Champions League and Community Shield. It’s not enough to be able to watch all of these matches. One thing easy.
But everyone will not be surprised, because this is Bielsa's style.
Argentine lunatics are not in vain!
When Yang Huan heard this, a thought came to his mind.
Although he admired Bielsa's ability very much, he felt that everyone's energy has its limits.
No matter how strong and outstanding Bielsa is, he is all alone, and it is inevitable that there will be fatigue and mistakes in individuals.
As a head coach, Bielsa's greatest value is not to watch so many game videos and analyze everything about the opponent.
It seems that it is necessary to equip Southampton with an excellent analysis team.
Bielsa didn't know that Yang Huan was thinking about him, he had completely entered the role.
"Before Torres joined this season, Chelsea's tactics had always been four-three-three. The trident combination of Anelka, Malouda and Drogba was in front of them, but Anelka and Drogba were all three. Twelve and thirty-three years old, and the team's offense this season has also encountered some problems, so during the winter break he will not hesitate to introduce Torres."
For this, people who are familiar with the Premier League situation and Chelsea intelligence know it.
"Torres, who was brought in by £50 million, is the core of his career in Liverpool. When he comes to Stamford Bridge, he must also be the main player, but he has just arrived and it will take some time to integrate into the team. So judging from the past few games, Ancelotti will continue to use the double forward combination."
Bielsa definitely wrote the names of the two Chelsea arrow figures on the tactical board.
Drogba and Torres!
"The reason I am so sure is because Torres would not accept the wing. When he was in Liverpool, the coach Hodgson asked him to splice long passes. He is already very upset. It is impossible for Ancelotti to arrange for him to pull. Side, serve Drogba."
"When Chelsea play a combination of two forwards, Malouda and Anelka on the two wings are basically impossible to play at the same time."
Once the two forwards and two wide players are on the field at the same time, there are four people in the front field. Chelsea's defense is also a four-back combination, and there are only two midfielders left, which is too weak.
"Choose one of two!" Bielsa judged loudly.
"In the Premier League in the middle of the week, Ancelotti asked Anelka to play as the midfielder. The French played very eye-catchingly. There was a goal. This was an attempt, but it was also a signal. Back to the diamond midfield position."
Bielsa brushed down his judgment on the tactical board, Chelsea's main starting lineup.
The midfielder is Anelka, Essien and Lampard are in the center, Mikel lags behind to play the midfielder, the iconic diamond midfield position.
The midfield position and starting lineup have been determined, so the defense is simple.
Left-back Ashley Cole is set to start, Terry and Ivanovic or David Luiz will start the start, right-back should be Bosingwa, and the goalkeeper is Czech goalkeeper Cech.
Guessing the opponent's starting lineup is just the beginning of targeted preparations.
How to deal with it and formulate a game strategy is the key and the most controversial link.
"I think we should tighten up."
Some members of the coaching staff stood up to express their opinions.
"Our central defender, Benatia is really strong, but sometimes it is still not stable enough. Varane's strength and potential are quite good, but he is too young to meet top strikers like Torres and Drogba. ..."
Although he didn't say a conclusion, everyone guessed what he wanted to express.
The combination of these two central defenders, encountering Torres and Drogba, is choking!
Almost the previous one had just sat down, and immediately someone stood up.
"I don't agree to put it away. We should note that Chelsea has always been a very experienced team. In the Premier League, many middle and lower teams, and even many top teams, only send one striker when they encounter Chelsea. But Chelsea played very patiently and didn't make mistakes easily. In the end they won."
Having said that, the coach sighed earnestly: "Don't forget, they have the most impactful monster in the world!"
The horror of Drogba is that he has left a lingering shadow on almost all English teams, even all European teams, and has become a nightmare for all defenders.
"Don't close up and play? Do you want to go out and play? Last season's Premier League, Burnley, Stoke City, Wigan Athletic, Aston Villa, Portsmouth and other teams played this way. Fa, the result?"
These teams met Chelsea in the Premier League last season and they all lost more than five goals, with the most losing eight goals.
"That was last season, and Chelsea's strength this season is obviously not as good as last season!"
"Really? I don't think so. Chelsea introduced Ramirez in the summer and Torres and David Luiz during the winter break. They worked well together and their strength was not much inferior to last season."
"The strength of these three strong aids is really good, and it is not clear whether they may be integrated."
"That's right, but we don't have the same strength as Chelsea."
...
The discussion in the conference room became more and more heated. At first, only one or two people were arguing, and then it turned into a quarrel, and then more and more people joined the battle group. Both sides insisted on their own words, and no one could convince anyone. .
Soon, the whole scene became a mess.
Bielsa also has a headache for this kind of thing, no matter which faction he supports, it will cause the other faction to disagree.
Therefore, Yang Huan needs to come forward at this time.
When the quarrel in the conference room was the worst, Yang Huan suddenly stood up from the corner with a loud bang.
This loud noise almost smashed the table, and it was shocked that everyone present was silent.
Everyone looked at the angry boss with lingering fears.
Everyone realized that, despite the fact that the young boss is usually pleasant, but once angry, he is still very prestigious.
"What is it? Do you want to fight?"
All the members of this group of coaching staff, who were blushing with noisy faces, were all silent and did not dare to speak.
"Isn't it just a Chelsea? Is it so scary? Is it necessary to quarrel like this?"
Yang Huan stepped out of his seat and walked forward under everyone's attention.
"Such a simple question needs to be so complicated?"
"How did we defeat Arsenal in the first place? Attack!"
"What is our Southampton's most powerful weapon this season? Offense!"
"What is our Southampton most proud of all Saints fans? Or offense!"
Yang Huan's utterly loud words made everyone present realize his thoughts.
This is to play against Chelsea, go out and fight!
"Offensive is the label of our Southampton, the soul that we have integrated into the blood, and the foundation and foundation of our foothold. We must attack in life, and we must attack in death. We must attack when we win, and we must attack when we lose!"
"We just want to tell everyone that when we appear on the football field in Southampton, we will always only do one thing."
"That is a fearless, desperate attack!"
As soon as Yang Huan's words fell, there was silence in the conference room.
"Okay, Master Huan, well said!"
"That's great, we support you, Master Huan!"
"Yes, we in Southampton are going to attack, attacking desperately!"
"No matter who we are facing, no matter how strong the opponent is, we must attack!"
Outside the meeting room, many players gathered after hearing the news, and they all followed Yang Huan.
Some of the coaches flushed with excitement, some were a little ashamed, and some were dissatisfied.
But Yang Huan ignored these at all.
In his opinion, offensive football is Southampton's golden signature. It is better to lose the game than to lose this signature.
You know, Southampton can attract so many fans and create a full attendance at home games. A large part of it depends on this golden sign.
It's like Coca-Cola always uses red cans.
This is the soul integrated into the blood. You can't lose it. If you lose it, you will die!
"You may say that I'm playing thirteen, but I still want to say, look at the Premier League situation this season, and then analyze and analyze, you will find that Manchester United, Chelsea, Manchester City, Arsenal, Liverpool and other teams, They are not as strong as before, and their control is much weaker than before."
"This season, there are many teams in the middle and lower reaches of the Premier League. They have played very boldly and aggressively when facing giant teams. Did they dare before?"
"When Cristiano Ronaldo, Tevez and Rooney formed the trident of Manchester United, who would dare to attack them?"
"Chelsea in Mourinho's time, who dares to press and fight them?"
"But now?"
All the coaches were speechless, because this was the truth.
Yang Huan obtained a piece of television analysis information from Charlene Laheri~EbookFREE.me~ which clearly analyzed that the overall strength of the four or five superpowers in the Premier League this season is indeed going downhill.
Even Chelsea, who introduced two strong aids during the winter break.
The biggest problem for the Blues is that the aging of the player structure is particularly serious, and the replacement cannot keep up.
"I tell you, playing Chelsea, we only do one thing!"
"Counterattack!"
"Whoever opposes, get out of here!"
"We in Southampton don't want this kind of cowardly species that shows up before a fight!"
After speaking, Yang Huan walked directly out of the conference room with Dragon Five amidst the cheers of the players.
Before leaving, he exchanged a glance with Bielsa, who nodded gratefully.
With Yang Huan coming out this time, his affairs will be much easier. ()
