Vol 4 Chapter 186: Manchester City's tactical weakness

　　 Swansea City Club was founded in 1912 and belongs to the young in the British team. The name of the city of Swansea means ‘Swan River Mouth’ in English, although there is no river called ‘Swan’ here. If you ask the local aboriginals, they will tell you that Bristol Bay was called Swan Sea before. But the swan cannot live on the sea, never!
　　 Therefore, the nickname of the Swansea team is called Swan. From the team badge, it is still a black swan.
In June of this year, the Swansea Club was acquired by a consortium led by major league team Washington DC co-owner Jason Leviven and NBA team Memphis Grizzlies executive vice chairman Steve Kaplan. A team that has been tepid since its inception has brought a lot of expectations.
In the 2012-13 season, under the leadership of the Danish coach Laudrup, Swansea defeated Bradford from the English League 2 at Wembley Stadium 5-0 and won the League Cup of that year. The final with the biggest score in the history of the League Cup is also the only championship trophy that Swansea has had in its century.
　　 In February 2014, Laudrup and Swansea parted ways, the team captain, 35-year-old guard Gary Munch became the head coach.
Two years later, in January of this year, Swansea shivered at a position just one point higher than the relegation zone. Young coach Munch dismissed get out of class. Italian coach "Little Zhuge" Guidolin took office and led the team successfully to land at the end of the season. .
　　 The 61-year-old Francisco Guidolin has traveled to Apennines in his coaching career. It feels like he has coached all the teams in the middle and lower reaches of Serie A, and he is an old player in the coaching world.
Two days ago, Swansea lost 1:2 to Manchester City in the League Cup. To be honest, Guidolin didn’t care, and Guardiola, who won, didn’t care. Neither of them sent their main players. After all, the Premier League is the highlight. .
The big American boss is here, and there will naturally be some meeting gifts. Swansea’s transfer to Xia Chuang in the past, although not comparable to those giants, still acquired many famous players, including the 31-year-old former Biba and Juventus Spain Center Llorente.
　　 Together with the Polish goalkeeper Fabianski from Arsenal in the original team, South Korean midfielder Ji Chengyong, Iceland forward Sigurdsson, England international Jack Kirk, Swansea still has a few corners.
　　 Manchester City skyrocketed Aguero today. Tintin and Sterling are on two wings, with midfielders Gundogan, Silva and Fei Niao. The central defender combination, it seems that Guashuai still favors Stones and Otamendi the most. Both sides Sanya and Kolarov.
　　 Kompany and Sabaletta were not on the court, and the captain's armband gave David Silva.
　　 Two days ago, Zhuo Yang did not come because of an ankle injury. Before the game today, coach Guidolin made a special trip to greet him and hug him, and welcome Zhuo Yang to the White Rock Stadium.
　　 During the three years when Zhuo Yang was in AC Milan, Guidolin coached Palermo, the two were actually not familiar.
In Guardiola, Mourinho, Klopp, Simeone, Conte, Enrique, Tuchel, Zidane, and other new generation coaches of the Mesozoic era, 64-year-old Ranieri Leading Leicester City to win the Premier League title last season gave great confidence to the oppressed old coaches.
　　Especially a traditional Italian coach like Guidolin, who walks with wind.
　　 Swansea is also a team with a sea breeze in the game. Llorente at 193 and West Goodson at 188. In today's era of chaos, the double center tactics are like a refreshing wind.
After the opening, the two small men on the two wings, Routledge and Britton, brushed the sides several times and then crossed and smashed. It was frightening to see. Fortunately, Stones was unambiguous today, and Bravo also attacked in time. Manchester City almost managed it. Swansea’s three axes.
　　 The wind continues to blow, but the flying birds never fear the wind, especially the fee bird.
In the 9th minute, Brazil's defensive midfielder Fernandinho took the lead. He made a diagonal pass across the court on the left side of the front court. During the period, he did not know how many eyes he passed through to keep up with but he was good and his center of gravity could not keep up. Wangsi, the football accurately reached the feet of the old French defender Sarnia at the right end of the stadium.
　　 has an old family. Sarnia swung his leg and crossed it to Aguero in the penalty area.
　　A Kun and the boss of May should be true love, because he has also started to grow a big beard. Since the beginning of the season, now the second half of his face is growing gratifyingly.
　　 Aguero carried the ball with his left foot to the side and back. After making a small circle like a top, he threw the two central defenders, Amat and Van der Horn, behind him, like two fools.
　　 A close volley from a small angle to the far post, Fabianski barely pounced and did his best, Manchester City 1:0.
To be honest, not to mention the striker, Manchester City’s current midfielders Fei Niao, Tintin, Gundogan, Silva, no matter how the three-three match, the strength and efficiency are not as good as the back and forth of the offensive and defensive ability of the guard It is not as good as Alves and Coffee and Abidal, the second master of Barcelona.
　　 Guashuai pays attention to the small-range pass and cut. It is common for the players to hold the ball and plug in. However, in this style of everyone plugging in, being hit back is a headache.
　　 For this reason, Gua Shuai has a ‘five-second anti-grab rule’, that is, everyone robs the ball as soon as they lose the ball. This is why Manchester City can get a lot of high-threat frontcourt rights.
　　 However, this interception law is at the cost of disrupting the midfield position, so the effectiveness of the midfield interception also decreases. Once the interception fails, there is immediate danger of being hit back.
　　 In order to solve this problem, Gua Shuai’s strategy of shifting the universe has a classic style called the full-back adduction, that is, the left and right full-backs move closer to the center circle and play the role of a pseudo-back midfielder. While strengthening midfield control, UU Kanshu www.uukanshu.com also gave up side defense to some extent.
　　 So in Guashuai's team, the ability of full-backs is extremely high.
　　 However, the first-class full-backs of Manchester City are indeed first-class, but they may not be very suitable for Guashuai's tactical mentality. They often receive in but can't let go, so that their own wing is often empty.
　　 Today, Swansea is the team that has always been very good at attacking from the wing. It can even be said that they can do nothing but the wing. The swans play an unusual slip in the bottom corner.
　　 In the 13th minute, Routledge made a bottom pass from the right. Otamendi and Jack Kirk competed for the top of the penalty area. He won and pushed the ball out of the penalty area. He couldn't stand his balance and fell to the ground.
　　 Manchester City's entire defender line pushed out, creating an offside trap for the opponent, forgetting Otamendi who was still climbing from the ground at the end.
　　 The position of the midfield was chaotic, and Si Gudson snatched the spot surrounded by the knot, and he took the football back with the back of his foot. Only then did Otamendi get up and jump up, so Llorente, who catches the ball, is not offside.
　　 Sanya had a chance, he and Llorente had a 50-50 chance of getting the ball. But turning back is like stepping on a thin poop, somehow it is a big backward split.
　　 Llorente took the ball and turned and volleyed.
　　 At such a close range, Bravo is even more discouraged than Fabianski, 1:1.
