The Ball at Your Feet

"Hello, please come in, Mr. Coach." Of course, Zhao Yaning has an impression of the name Benitez. It's not because Zhao Yaning is concerned about Valencia-in fact, he has never liked the style of La Liga-but because Zhao Yaning knows better that Valencia played Arsenal in the first two years.

A player who was obviously one grade worse with the card, but was able to beat Arsenal, and the scene was not at all disadvantaged. This ability is what surprises Zhao Yaning.

Later, I heard Morientes said that this coach is a very tactical person, and he has a good impression. He always feels that a person who is passionate about football itself deserves more respect than those who are passionate about football's surrounding affairs.

But this was indeed the first time he saw Benitez.

"Hello, just call me Rafa." Benitez tried to show his most easygoing side. "Can we talk? Some things about next season."

"Of course. Call me Joey, Lily, this is Mr. Benitez, my coach in Liverpool. Mr. Benitez, this is Lily."

Zhao Yaning introduced Alizee, and Alizee also greeted Benitez, but Benitez frowned when he saw Alizee’s already bulging abdomen, "I remember If it's wrong, you're just twenty years old, right? Why did she get pregnant?"

This question surprised both Alizee and Zhao Yaning. The fact that Alizee was pregnant a while ago was a lot of trouble. There was no less coverage in the newspapers, so this coach didn't even know?

Maybe he doesn't listen to songs and doesn't like gossip news. Zhao Yaning was a little bit cramped and didn’t know how to answer, but Benitez continued to say, “Being less than twenty years old, there will be family pressure. This is not a good thing for you. Many good players are Because you entered the family life too early, you lost your enterprising spirit. In the end, nothing was achieved. I hope you don't waste your football training because of this."

Alizee's face changed a little, and she turned and left.

"I'm sorry, sir, Lily is pregnant with a child and is not in a good mood." Zhao Yaning somewhat understood the meaning of Morientes' words.

"I'm telling the truth. Of course, if you Chinese have any special customs, such as the age at which you must have a child, I can understand it. I respect individual customs. I also specifically checked China. People’s customs. However, after coming to Liverpool, if you want to eat dog meat, it’s better to tell me first. My recipes are very strict. If you Chinese have any other strange customs, you can also tell me ."

"Thank you." Zhao Yaning spit out two words-this guy, is there really something wrong with it?

"Mr. Coach, what is the main reason for you to come to me?" Zhao Yaning was reluctant to say anything else to him, and went straight to the subject, "Can you talk about our focus?"

"Oh, it's like this: I brought my training plan and tactical plan. I hope I can discuss it with you in detail." Benitez took out the information from his bag. "Liverpool's training method is not very Science, Monaco is the same. These are all training methods that have stayed in the last century. There is only training, no statistics. I hope that after you arrive in Liverpool, you will start training according to the training plan I made for you. This is what I give The training plan you made, of course, after you arrive in Liverpool, I will give you a comprehensive test and make some adjustments. I have some special testing software here, put them into the computer, and then link it with the training equipment, you will You can test your own state at any time. I hope you will bring it with you during the national team game. This will be of great benefit for me to grasp your movements the first time."

Zhao Yaning was a little surprised by the detail and seriousness of the work he had done. Those documents didn't look like new stuff. He received Benitez's information and nodded, but he was still a little confused.

"I have one more question." Zhao Yaning couldn't help but continue to ask, "I have never seen these test software, or even heard of it. Where did you get it?"

"I made it myself." Benitez replied. "Programming is very simple. I learned it in college."

"Have you been to university...studying computer?" Zhao Yaning asked in surprise.

"No, my university is advanced physics, I have a master's degree in physics..."

Zhao Yaning was really speechless this time.

What kind of physics is a football coach?

"Then there is a tactical problem. When you played in Monaco, your tactical role was not very good. In Liverpool, we will correct this problem in the future."

This sentence made Zhao Yaning a little dissatisfied, "I have won the Champions League in Monaco, and I am still the core of the team."

"That's just because this year's Champions League was a complete mess, and the giants played so badly that you were selected. If Zidane and Nedved play well, you have no chance. You guys. In the team, the tactical issues do not pay enough attention to details, your running position is too random, and your playing style is also excessively free. These things should not be available for a championship team. Deschamps doesn’t use you very much. correct."

"But we won." Zhao Yaning respected Deschamps, so naturally he would be dissatisfied with such words.

"That's a small probability event." Benitez simply said the answer, "but you can't play by luck for a lifetime."

This is true. Although he admitted that his champion was lucky, Zhao Yaning was still a little unconvinced. "Then you can tell me what are the shortcomings of our tactics."

"No problem." Benitez replied immediately, "I have watched your game and the role and play of your Monaco. I think you still need some adjustments. During Monaco, your speed advantage It’s hard to perform. Speed ​​is not only used for counterattacks. If speed is used well, it can play a great role in breaking the balance in some scenes. And your body is very strong. There is no need to avoid physical contact all the time. Monaco treats you. Use, ignoring your ability to divide the ball after taking the ball in the frontcourt, just let you break the ball. In fact, you can try to get the ball in the frontcourt, instead of trying to break immediately, but stay in place Take the ball, and then run by your teammates. You support...Of course, the Ligue 1 teams generally have low ball-free running ability. This is also your weakness. I hope you can make up for this in the future..."

When talking about tactics, Benitez immediately became interested. He and Zhao Yaning have been chatting all the time, talking in detail about tactics, "Your shooting skills are really bad, and the skills cannot be practiced in a short time. What's more important is that you have to adjust your mentality more. If you have a better mentality, your shot success rate will increase a lot. The other is your shooting location, long shots at the top of the penalty area and two The far corner of the post near the goalpost is the most likely method of kicking. You should give full play to your own advantages and shoot from this position instead of trying to shoot from the angle..."

Following Benitez's words, Zhao Yaning was gradually convinced. He listened to the tactics explained by Benitez, nodded, and agreed.

--------------------------

After Benitez left, Zhao Yaning was still thinking about the dialogue with Benitez. Many parts of his words do show high tactical literacy. This tactical literacy is indeed rarely displayed by coach Deschamps: Maybe coach Deschamps’ tactical literacy is not low, but the problem is that coach Deschamps will not. Speaking so directly with the players. He prefers to inspire and guide the players to comprehend, rather than tell them directly about their shortcomings.

"You guys can really talk." Alizee didn't come out until this time. "What can I do to talk to him?"

"Tactics. His analysis of when I was playing in Monaco was very good. There are things that I don’t usually think, but when he said, I felt that’s the case. I really did not do well enough. Very straightforward, but everything is right." Zhao Yaning shook his head, "After arriving in Liverpool, maybe I can really make a lot of progress."

Zhao Yaning knows that he is not a person who can take the initiative to make up the tactics. Although he is good at reading the game, he is not serious and pay attention to some details. This is also the biggest role of experience. After all, he is still He is too young, and he still doesn't have the experience of many top midfielders.

What he needs now is for the team to build a lineup around him so that he can maximize his strength. From the perspective of Benitez's understanding and analysis, he is obviously a very suitable head coach.

"So, do you think he is better than Coach Deschamps?" Alizee asked.

"Of course not. How can two different people be compared?" Zhao Yaning shook his head. "Coach Deschamps pays great attention to the training of players. If Coach Deschamps talks to me, he will tell me how I am first. Training can become stronger, not to say that these tactics make me perform better." Zhao Yaning paused before commenting, "Coach Deschamps is a good coach, and this coach I just got in touch with. , I can only say that he knows a lot about tactics, and he is really a very smart person, a master of tactics, but if he is a good coach, I have to look again. However, looking at his results in Valencia, it shouldn’t be Would he be a terrible coach?

On this point, Zhao Yaning still has his own ideas. French football is an exporting country. Naturally, it will be more concerned about the training of players, which is their main source of income in the future. In places like La Liga and the Premier League, team coaches pay more attention to the issues of team performance and team income. uukanshu.com is no longer so concerned about the training of new players for the team.

After I went to the United Kingdom, I would definitely not have a person like Coach Petit supervising my hard work every day. All future training will have to rely on self-consciousness.

"Is he good? You can judge for yourself." Alizee replied, "But don't take him home again! Who, the first time you come here as a guest, it's your coach, which is considered an elder. I opened my mouth and shut my mouth and scolded me. I'm a pregnant woman, and even stupid people should know that pregnant women can't be angry!"

"He is not malicious, just talking about football. He can't be malicious. He ran all the way to get a good relationship with me. How could it be troublesome? He just saw it. I'm not satisfied, just say one more sentence..."

Alizee tilted her head and looked at Zhao Yaning, before laughing for a while, "I think you will be very interesting in Liverpool in the future."

"why?"

"You are basically the same as him. When it comes to playing football, you look serious, as if there is nothing bigger than playing football." Alizee laughed, "That's why you guys can talk...but that guy Can you bear that kind of hurtful temper? It doesn't matter, your embarrassed look is the most interesting in my opinion."

ps: Using computer data to monitor player training, the first to be put into practice was Benitez's work in Valencia. This guy really learns high-energy physics, and he can program. A while ago, he made a coaching software by himself at home. It is said that Rogers and Bosque are the first users...
