Chapter 283 A scholar dies for his confidant! Start by subverting the goalkeeper [A big chapter of ten thousand words, please subscribe]

Like the United States, football is not the number one sport in Australia.

It's not even a popular sport.

The most popular game among Australians is Australian Rules Football, which is neither rugby nor football. The rules are very special, but it is very popular in Australia.

You can see large stadiums with circular lawns everywhere, which are the venues for Australian rules football.

Rugby ranks second, and Australia's rugby league is also very developed.

Then there is cricket, a sport that should come from India.

Football is ranked very low, even behind tennis, swimming, cycling and other sports.

Despite this, Atletico Madrid will still receive a warm welcome from local fans every time they come to Australia.

After the team arrived in Melbourne, enthusiastic fans came to pick them up.

Despite the long journey, Atletico Madrid players still tried their best to meet the needs of the enthusiastic fans, taking photos with them, or signing their jerseys, etc.

Until we walked out of the airport and boarded the bus, everyone at Atletico Madrid was still talking about it.

Especially the new players in the team, they clearly feel the influence of Atletico Madrid around the world.

Marcelo is also a guy who is very good at enlivening the atmosphere. He exaggeratedly said on the bus: "I haven't even made an appearance yet, and they can actually say my name. It's amazing!"

Everyone on the bus was amused by his tone and exaggerated expressions.

"You have to get used to this kind of thing!" Ramos shouted.

"Playing at Atletico Madrid is so eye-catching!"

Everyone laughed again.

Yang Hao laughed even more, wanting to complain: Yes, yes, you pee anywhere, and there are people standing by to count the seconds for you. It's so eye-catching!

But he could only endure these words, otherwise, Ramos would definitely fight him desperately.

"The atmosphere in our team is really good now." Pochettino, sitting opposite Yang Hao, praised with a smile.

He retired from Espanyol. After retiring, he took a break for a while, but recently he couldn't bear the loneliness and wanted to transform into a coach, so he went to Madrid to sign up for a coaching training course.

Although he didn't formally propose it, Yang Hao could hear his thoughts, so he took the initiative to invite him to join Atletico Madrid's coaching staff.

Since I don’t have a coaching certificate yet, I will join the team and receive a salary, but not in my name.

This can also be regarded as a kind of treatment for retired players of Atletico Madrid.

As Atletico Madrid becomes larger and larger, there are more and more things like Pochettino. After retiring, many players have transformed into coaches or worked in clubs.

Of course, Yang Hao said that he must go through further training.

For example, Tony Munoz, Aguilera, Santi Denia and others now work in the Fan Services Department, and they all do very well, specializing in fan services, community promotion, and communicating with major fans. Matchmaking activities and so on.

After recruiting Pochettino, Yang Hao specially invited Guardiola to Atletico Madrid's coaching staff to play a role similar to that of a consultant.

When Barcelona invited Mourinho to coach, Guardiola was somewhat disappointed. After all, he was still deeply influenced by coaches such as Cruyff and Louis van Gaal, which was far from Mourinho's philosophy.

This time he also hopes to learn more from Yang Hao, especially about coaching.

……

Even though Atletico Madrid seems stingy in many aspects, its investment in players is real.

An authoritative media once conducted an anonymous questionnaire survey of players to evaluate and score European giants.

Atletico Madrid is far ahead.

In the words of some former Atletico Madrid players: Atletico Madrid truly cares for and cares for its players as if they were treasures.

Don’t want your players to get injured?

Atletico Madrid has the best medical and rehabilitation system in Europe and even the world. The laboratory and medical team are updated at any time to keep up with the world's advanced technology and equipment.

No matter how expensive it is, I am willing to invest as long as it is necessary.

This has to mention an interesting thing that Lezi people like to hear and see.

In 05, Real Madrid's Valdebebas was completed and put into operation. In 06, affected by the wave of injuries, Real Madrid introduced a large number of instruments and equipment that were said to be the most advanced in the world, and invited Real Madrid TV and AS Wait for the media to report.

There's nothing wrong with Real Madrid promoting itself, right?

However, the reporter from Real Madrid TV was a bit busy at that time and had to do a lot of work. Not only did he ask Real Madrid players what they thought of the new instruments and equipment, whether they were satisfied or not, but they also asked Joaquin one more question.

Does Atletico Madrid have such advanced instruments and equipment?

Joaquin obviously didn't think much about it and blurted out: This set of equipment was still useful in Atletico Madrid a few years ago, but was later eliminated for the youth team...

At that time, the atmosphere in the whole place was extremely awkward, and only a squawk of crows was heard flying overhead.

Atletico Madrid's emphasis on players is well-known in the industry.

Even those players who left Atletico Madrid may have resentments and various aggrievements, but they all recognize one thing, that is, Atletico Madrid truly puts players at the core.

Another typical example is that before Atletico Madrid plays an away game, a dedicated person will fly to the away game to inspect the hotel where they are about to stay to ensure the quality of rest for the players upon arrival.

Many hotels even promote long-term cooperation with Atletico Madrid.

In order to give the team a better experience, Atletico Madrid specially customized three of the most luxurious buses. Needless to say, home games. Every time they go to away games, no matter how far away, even if it is like last season's Champions League final in Athens, Greece, Atletico Madrid The competitive buses will go to the away games in advance to familiarize themselves with the routes.

On social media, you can often see videos of Atletico Madrid buses on the road posted by fans.

There are also five-star hotel-level services at the training base.

Most clubs, including Real Madrid, are just bragging. At best, they are a little better than other teams. When talking about five-star hotels, do you really think that the players have never stayed in five-star hotels?

But what about Atletico Madrid?

It may not be as good as a real five-star luxury hotel, but at least the service level is really high.

Another piece of tidbits of news came out a few days ago.

Some German media complained that Atletico Madrid was stingy with its players and was not willing to arrange for Neuer and Toni Kroos to stay in a hotel. Instead, they let them live in dormitories at the training base. The implication is that Atletico Madrid treats German players harshly.

But on the day the news came out, Neuer and Toni Kroos got the club's permission and invited a familiar reporter from the German Bild newspaper to come over for an interview. The two even took the reporter to visit Atletico Madrid's players in Mahdahonda. dormitory.

Another new aid, Marcelo, who lives in the dormitory, also steals the spotlight.

Finally, they told Bild that it was not Atletico Madrid that refused to let them stay in the hotel, but that they themselves requested not to stay in the hotel.

The reason is that after they stayed in the hotel, they found that staying in the training base was more worry-free and more comfortable than staying in a hotel.

If you want to eat, the restaurant will arrange it; if you want to play, the player entertainment room has game consoles, computers and various entertainment equipment; the training base has all kinds of leisure and entertainment facilities...

"Many of our players will not leave immediately after training. We will organize some indoor football leagues, game competitions, etc. within the team. The prizes are also various, and everyone likes them very much."

Old captain Baraja revealed in an interview.

After the picture was published, all the fans suddenly realized.

In addition to training and competition, Atletico Madrid has actually been working hard to create an environment that makes players' lives more colorful.

Even some training included.

For example, when Yang Hao gave a speech before, many people noticed that Atletico Madrid had been insisting on first aid training for players.

After Atletico Madrid youth training player Gabi went to Zaragoza, he revealed in an interview that he had a professional qualification certificate for on-site rescue, which he obtained after receiving training at Atletico Madrid.

Many Atletico Madrid players also participate in various community activities on weekdays, which not only enhances their own image, but also strengthens the emotional bond between the club, the community and fans.

Behind all of this is money, real investment, and long-term investment.

The club's dedication and investment are truly reflected in the players' experience and feelings, truly making them feel at ease and don't need to worry about anything else except playing football.

In addition to these, Atletico Madrid is also very willing every time the team goes out for training.

For example, the hotels players stay in must be of the highest standard in the area.

The facilities at the training ground must also be the best and most complete.

Previously in Los Angeles, the United States, Atletico Madrid directly booked the Drake Stadium at UCLA.

This time when they came to Melbourne, Australia, the team booked an entire Australian Rules Football Club stadium directly in the city center.

The Australian rules football field is round, and the lawn is much larger than a football field. It is not very pleasant to use for training.

In addition, the stadium is also equipped with a gym, equipment room, swimming pool, etc., as well as complete medical facilities.

These are open to the public on weekdays, and Atletico Madrid has booked them all.

There's nothing wrong with it except that it's expensive.

After renting this stadium, Atletico Madrid's daily training, except for fixed-time technical and tactical drills, is open to fans for the rest of the time, allowing everyone to enter the stadium stands and watch Atletico Madrid's training.

After each training session, there is also an interactive session between players and fans.

Media reporters need to apply, but generally speaking, they can get in, but they will be asked some requirements and precautions.

People from Atletico Madrid's news and public relations department will be responsible for communicating with them. They will strictly control which news and which pictures are not suitable for distribution to avoid damaging the image of the club and players.

As for the Atletico Madrid players in the stadium, they are concentrating on training and preparing for the game.

Before, they had not really experienced the horror of Ortega and Pintus joining forces. After all, Pintus was new here, but this time, the two of them joined forces and made Atletico Madrid players almost cry. .

Use local media reports in Australia: You must see the outstanding performance of Atletico Madrid players on the court, as well as the gorgeous football that they presented, like mercury falling to the ground.

But at the same time, we must also see the hard work and sweat that Atletico Madrid players put in behind the scenes.

Without this kind of high-intensity physical reserve training, Atletico Madrid players would not be able to perform invincibly on the court.

But even in Melbourne, Australia, Atletico Madrid's training is still very scientific. Many training equipment are even flown in from Europe. All training links are still indispensable, and the physical testing and monitoring of players are also very strict.

This will ensure that players do not get injured during training.

Of course, accidental injuries from time to time are inevitable, but they usually only last a few days, or a week or two.

……

Based on Yang Hao's proposal last year, Atletico Madrid officially launched the initiative in La Liga, which also received enthusiastic support from other La Liga teams. Therefore, this time La Liga's preseason games adopted the divisional cup system for the first time.

The two Spanish Super Cup games are scheduled to be held in Japan and South Korea.

Atletico Madrid this time traveled north along Australia's east coast, from Melbourne to Sydney to Brisbane, then to Jakarta in Indonesia, then Singapore, and finally to Bangkok in Thailand.

Other La Liga teams have also played friendly matches in Asia, including India, the Philippines, Malaysia, Indonesia, etc. The routes and competition venues have been carefully arranged.

IMG also has very rich experience in this area and is also very good at business development.

From the current point of view, it is difficult to make big money in the short term, but the appearance fee is much better than in the previous preseason.

At the very least, it can ensure that the team not only gets high-level warm-up training, but also earns considerable income.

If it transforms into a cup competition, it is definitely not possible to just look at the present, but to look at the prospects three or five years from now, or even ten years from now.

Especially for La Liga.

This year, Atletico Madrid and Valencia are in the Asian region, and Barcelona and Real Madrid are in the North and South American regions.

Some of the games are played with local teams, and some are La Liga civil wars. All of them have been carefully selected and considered by IMG, especially for their box office appeal.

For example, Atletico Madrid played two warm-up matches in Melbourne, one against Melbourne Victory, the double champion of the Australian domestic league last season. The two sides played a warm-up match at Telstra Stadium in Melbourne Bay Area.

Atletico Madrid defeated their opponents 3-0.

But this game still attracted 54000 fans and it was a full house.

This created Melbourne Victory's highest ever home attendance.

Subsequently, Atletico Madrid continued to train in Melbourne.

The opponent in the second warm-up match was the Australian national team, and the venue of the game was the Melbourne Cricket Ground.

As the name suggests, this stadium is used for cricket and can also be used as a venue for Australian rules football. It is the largest football stadium in Australia with a capacity of an astonishing 10 people.

In the past, it was usually used to host cricket matches and Australian rules football matches. Football matches were rarely held here because there is an Olympic Park stadium next door with a smaller capacity than Telstra Stadium.

Atletico Madrid's match against the Australian national team received a good response after a long period of warm-up. It was expected that the 5-person Telstra Stadium would not be able to accommodate, so it was specially arranged to be held at the cricket ground, hoping to accommodate more fans.

At the beginning, both the organizers and Atletico Madrid were worried about attendance.

Previously, in a game played here by the Australian national team, the largest number of fans entering the stadium was only 85513. This is already the largest audience record for a football match in Australia.

The expectations given by the organizers and Atletico Madrid are very low-key, and more than 8 people will be considered qualified.

But as the Sheets Army came to Australia for training, various pre-heating news emerged one after another, and the fans gradually became enthusiastic.

Especially after Atletico Madrid defeated Melbourne Victory 3-0, fans are full of expectations for this game.

As of the day before the game, all 97500 tickets for the game had been sold out, and fans were even asking for tickets.

In the end, the organizers had to arrange all the 4 seats that had been canceled.

As a result, the number of fans attending this game reached an astonishing 10.

This not only exceeded the attendance record of the Australian national team here, but also broke the attendance record of 9 set by the rugby league here.

Second only to the Australian Rules Football Finals held here, which attracted 12 people, including some standing room tickets.

10 people attended the event, which is an unprecedented event for Australia.

That night, amid the cheers of all the fans at the scene, Atletico Madrid bloodbathed the Australian national team 5-1, which was watched with gusto by all the fans who bought tickets.

The next morning, almost all local Australian media and newspapers were reporting on the game and Atletico Madrid.

The gathering of superstars and gorgeous playing style, coupled with the fact that Atletico Madrid has caused a whirlwind in the United States, Japan and the Middle East in the past few years, has made Australia's latent football passion burst out.

The Australian, Australia's largest circulation newspaper, published a commentary article saying: Australia's passion for football has been ignited by Atletico Madrid!

The Sheets Army from Europe used their most gorgeous offensive football and radiant superstars to arouse the desire for football among Australian fans.

"It's not that we don't like football, it's that we don't like Australian football!"

……

After playing for the Australian national team, Atletico Madrid still stayed in Melbourne for training.

There are two warm-up matches ahead, in Sydney and Brisbane.

But before setting off, Yang Hao needs to deal with some of the tactical problems the team is currently facing.

Neuer and Cech are two different types of goalkeepers.

Before Neuer, Edwin van der Sar and Petr Cech were both very successful goalkeepers.

Needless to say, Van der Sar is a proactive goalkeeper, but after moving to Manchester United, he gradually transformed as he got older. After all, he is older and his body can no longer bear it.

Cech is adapting to Atletico Madrid's technical and tactical style and gradually integrating into the team, but he is still not doing enough.

For example, many people have said that Cech's passing and ball control are not very good, and he is not integrated enough into the game.

But Neuer is actually very different.

Neuer is actually still confused now.

Yes, confusion is very appropriate to describe it.

Even though he performed very well at Schalke 04 last season, in fact, the German football community still has some ideas and opinions about some of his actions, and there are even very big differences.

The main reason is that Neuer often breaks out of the penalty area during games, and even if he is in the penalty area, he often attacks. This is really difficult for a goalkeeper who always demands safety.

Especially when Neuer makes mistakes, he is often criticized and criticized.

In Yang Hao's previous life, why did Neuer become the main player earlier, but his evaluation and reputation were not as good as those of Bayer Leverkusen's Rene Adler, and he was even ranked behind Adler in the national team. ?

The reason is that Neuer is very unstable.

To use the description of the German media, it is a nerve knife.

You attack suddenly. It's a good thing if you can stop the ball, but what if you can't?

There is an empty door behind you.

Another reason is that it is too unique.

Even Schalke 04 goalkeeper coach Oliver Lake complained to Pedro Haro in private that he had never seen such a goalkeeper. Everyone knows that goalkeeper is a position that requires extremely high stability.

Buffon, Cech, Casillas, and Van der Sar in recent years, why are they so praised?

Because they are stable!

But it is difficult to accept a goalkeeper who attacks all day long and often even rushes out of the penalty area.

It is conceivable that although Neuer received honors, he also received a lot of pressure and criticism in Germany.

Lake asked him many times to be more steady and to control his impulses. Impulse is the devil.

But Neuer still goes his own way.

This caused him great controversy.

His physical fitness is really good. He is 1 meters tall, very fast and very flexible.

Pedro Haro also showed Yang Hao an edited clip of Neuer's defensive moves. He told Yang Hao that every time Neuer faced an offensive player, his legs and knees were slightly bent. The hands are behind the back.

It is difficult for a tall goalkeeper to get down to make a save. Because of his tall height, he is slow to get down to the ground.

The way Italian goalkeepers are trained is to take a step back and then pounce.

It works a bit, but it's limited.

Neuer's method is to always keep his legs slightly bent and his hands behind his back, so that he can take action and get to the ground faster.

Coupled with his amazing reaction speed, excellent physical fitness and explosive power, his height of 1 meters and slender arms, he has a very large range of control.

It can be said that from a goalkeeper's perspective, Neuer really has very, very good physical fitness and athletic ability.

His running ability, explosive power and speed are definitely his magic weapons.

Especially when he rushes out, combined with his burly body of 1 meters, the intimidation effect given to offensive players is very amazing.

Of course, the timing of attack is very important.

Excellent athletic ability makes him very good with his feet.

Not to mention among goalkeepers, even compared with defenders and midfielders, his footwork is very good and his passing ability is excellent.

The passing here is not only goal kicks and hand throws, these are the basic skills of a goalkeeper. He also cooperates very well with his teammates in passing, which can be seen in daily training.

And he is very proficient in both left and right feet.

This is very interesting.

When Van der Sar came to Atletico Madrid, he was already quite old, while Cech was limited by his own characteristics, which made Atletico Madrid's past style of play somewhat incompatible with Neuer.

For example, Yang Hao told the defenders and midfielders to treat Neuer as a supporting fulcrum.

But many people are not used to it.

In their eyes, passing the ball back to the goalkeeper is a last resort.

After a period of internal training, whether it was Yang Hao, Guardiola, Juanma Lillo or Pochettino, they all discovered a detail that was rarely noticed.

Or it should be said that even in Yang Hao's previous life, many fans didn't get to the point when they boasted about their buttocks.

That is his ability to read the game and the movement without the ball that this ability brings.

Every player will have a passing sector when pressed by a defensive player.

The so-called pressure actually means narrowing the opponent's passing sector.

When the receiving player is running, there is a very important consideration, which is to expand the passer's passing sector based on the positions of the passer and the presser.

Simply put, it is more convenient for teammates to pass the ball.

Whether you can run or not is reflected here.

Many people say that Neuer is a goalkeeper. In addition to the defensive aspect, it is also crucial for him to integrate into the game and act as part of the ball control system.

Whether he is catching the ball or delivering the ball, it is an important factor that tests his ability to read the game.

There is another tactical point that is easily overlooked, but is actually crucial, and that is the central defender.

In the tactical system of the past many years, everyone has emphasized meticulousness, order, and position...

Especially for defenders.

The two central defenders must always maintain a very careful position and cooperate with each other.

Even for teams like Atletico Madrid and Barcelona that focus on passing and controlling, the central defenders often have to maintain a compact position.

why?

Not to mention the defensive aspect, but at the passing and organizational level, it is to facilitate passing.

The distance between the two central defenders is longer, so the passing distance is longer, and the risk of being intercepted is greater, isn't it?

The importance of the fourth position is reflected in his ability to come back in time to take over the two central defenders when necessary.

Therefore, whether it is Barcelona, ​​Atletico Madrid, Real Madrid or Arsenal, the fourth position is actually very important.

And it will become increasingly important.

An extension of this is that after the central defender maintains a careful position, in order to ensure effective coverage of the defense, usually only one of the two full-backs can step up.

Mourinho even strongly demanded that if one goes up, the other must come back.

Van Gaal did not ask that only one player be allowed to play, but he asked that all full-backs must never pass the winger on the court.

why?

These are all to ensure that the central defender can provide timely and effective protection and complete the coverage of the defensive area.

What is the most important role of the fourth position in tactics?

When necessary, he can sink into the back line, and the two central defenders can move to the wings.

In this case, the full-back can press forward more boldly.

And everyone knows that football tactics, whether offensive or defensive, emphasize one point, forming the advantage of using more to attack less in a local area.

If both full-backs can press up at the same time, it means that our side can have one more person in front than our opponent at any time.

This is where the flexibility of the fourth position lies.

The emergence of Neuer will further subvert this pattern.

It used to be a retracement at position 4, but now?

You don't need to retreat in the fourth position. Just pull away as the central defender. It's okay. I'm standing behind you.

As long as you need it, send it to me anytime, anywhere, I'll be there.

The goalkeeper comes up and becomes the connecting point between the two central defenders, so the connection between the central defenders will not be cut off.

In other words, the fourth position does not need to retreat, both full-backs can press forward.

Wouldn't there be more players in the frontcourt attacking?

This advantage is huge.

But everything has pros and cons.

This requires the goalkeeper to get as close to the defense as possible and control the space and area behind the defender. At the same time, he must be able to actively integrate into the team's passing and ball control system when passing the ball and attacking.

The risk is also obvious, that is, the German media is currently controversial about Neuer and the defense line is unstable.

Is there any solution?

Fans in Yang Hao's previous life in 2023 all know that the answer is to strengthen the high-position pressing.

The goalkeeper presses forward, and the fourth position no longer has to retreat. The two full-backs can advance forward at the same time. Then there will be enough numerical advantage in the frontcourt. Whether it is offense or defense, they will have the numerical advantage. This requires Take advantage of this.

Instead of allowing the opponent to easily pass through the midfield and frontcourt as in the past, the defensive pressure can be transmitted to the backcourt.

If the pressure in the midfield and frontcourt is not done well and the opponent easily passes the ball to the backcourt and counterattacks, it will basically be over.

It can also be seen from this point that this style of play is often only suitable for strong teams with an overall advantage.

If your weak team plays like this, it's over.

Therefore, in a team like Schalke 04, Neuer will not be able to perform to his fullest, and will even be criticized.

But when it comes to a strong team, especially when I have strong midfield and frontcourt capabilities and can exert enough pressure, and with the corresponding tactical system, Neuer's role will be maximized!

……

Atletico Madrid's coaching staff has never lacked tactical geniuses.

For example, Juanma Lillo, current Guardiola, and Pochettino, etc. Some of them are good at thinking, some have played football for many years, and some are good at thinking and have played football for many years...

But when they heard Yang Hao's idea, they all looked confused.

Before, they were still wondering why Yang Hao decided to sign Neuer?

At that time, many people suggested to Yang Hao and Atletico Madrid to sign Buffon.

As long as Atletico Madrid hooks their fingers, Buffon will definitely come!

That's the number one goalkeeper in the world.

The key is, it’s not expensive!

But Yang Hao didn't want to kill him, he wanted Neuer.

It even allowed the team to adopt various strategies and twists and turns during operation, just to ensure the signing of Neuer.

Schalke 04 only costs 1000 million euros, that's because they don't know Neuer's tactical value. If they hear Yang Hao's words, they know the importance of Neuer to Yang Hao and Atletico Madrid's tactics in the next few years. , they must be like a lion.

Without 4000 million euros, Atletico Madrid dare to ask?

"Your idea is very interesting, but the risks are particularly high, especially the players' adaptation issues." Pochettino was the first to raise his concerns.

He is a central defender.

As an excellent central defender, he feels that Yang Hao's thinking is also subversive for central defenders, and it will be difficult to adapt to it for a while. Even goalkeeper Neuer may not be able to adapt.

"It means that no matter whether the team has the ball or not, I have to take the initiative!" Juanma Lillo concluded with a smile.

"The key is to see how big the profit is. In the midfield and frontcourt, with Atletico Madrid's current offensive firepower, I think it can reach a higher level, but players also need to make more and more active runs."

Guardiola is a little worried about Atletico Madrid's players, they are all big names now.

This is also Guardiola's lack of understanding of Atletico Madrid.

Yang Hao is very confident. No matter how big the name is, he must obey the overall tactics of the team.

"We all know that in the past few years, our tactics have always been to separate defense and offense. Whatever position you play, you play whatever role you play. Goalkeeper, then you have to guard your goal. Other things have nothing to do with you. .”

"Van der Sar intervened relatively early. He led and directed the defense, and also actively participated in the team's passing and receiving. But Van Gaal's Ajax was like a flash in the pan."

"After that, Van der Sar went to Serie A and didn't play out. He was getting older and his playing style had to change."

"We all know that there are many goalkeepers with excellent footwork who are too conservative in mentality, or are under pressure from the head coach and always stay on the goal line and in the penalty area."

"We also all know that there are many goalkeepers who like to attack and dare to attack, but they do not have enough hard power and technical skills. They may even have poor judgment of timing, which makes them at a loss in the game."

"But now, I think the time is right!"

A goalkeeper like Neuer is never unique.

The world is so big and there are so many people working in football. Even goalkeepers, there will be many goalkeepers like Neuer.

But he is a master of all things.

In Yang Hao's previous life, he happened to catch up with that era.

Now, he "happened" to meet Yang Hao.

"You made a big gamble." Guardiola shook his head and smiled.

"When it comes to pressing in the frontcourt, as long as the players cooperate, with Juanma's strength, I believe organization will not be a problem."

"The key depends on the players' understanding and execution, as well as their tacit understanding."

Juanma Lillo and Pochettino both nodded in agreement after hearing this.

"If you succeed, you will open up a new era and open a new world that will be worshiped by all football coaches in the world. But if you lose, you may be finished!"

At the end of the sentence, Guardiola couldn't help laughing.

But there was an indescribable envy in the smile.

He is also a very fond and very good at thinking person, so he is particularly envious of Yang Hao for having such an opportunity to try, take risks, and verify his own ideas.

At least unlike him, if he wants to find a experimental field now, he doesn't have such an opportunity.

Of course, the main reason is that he does not yet have a relatively mature tactical system.

Especially when he saw Yang Hao adjusting and reforming again and again, and this time he even planned to subvert the goalkeeper, he felt a huge pressure.

He has to keep chasing. When one day, he feels that he can catch up and surpass Yang Hao, maybe he will want to coach alone.

"I'm mentally prepared." Yang Hao said with a smile.

"I can use a season or two to polish this tactical system and help the players adapt and integrate."

As the top coach in European football at the moment, Yang Hao has the confidence that even if he fails to win the championship within a year or two, no one will question him.

What's more, with Atletico Madrid's current strength, it is difficult to prevent Atletico Madrid from winning the championship!

……

After Yang Hao determined the tactical ideas, Juanma Lillo and the coaching staff immediately began to study and split tasks.

Including adjustments to subsequent training programs.

Yang Hao's main task is to communicate with the players and instill the latest tactical ideas into them.

Especially Neuer.

The German goalkeeper didn't have much thought about joining Atletico Madrid before. He even wondered whether Atletico Madrid was stingy and reluctant to spend money to buy better goalkeepers, so they came to buy him?

But after listening to Yang Hao's words, he had to admit that Yang Hao's understanding of him might even be far better than his own.

In particular, the future he outlined for Neuer was something that the German goalkeeper had never had before, or even dared to imagine.

Growing up, his coach told him that the goalkeeper's job is to keep the goal.

Every time he attacks, every time he rushes out of the penalty area, every time he stops and dribbles the ball, his coach will scold him and tell him that the most important thing for a goalkeeper is stability, don't play with fire, and pass the ball quickly.

Even when he became the main player at Schalke 04, there were still many such voices.

So much so that he sometimes wonders whether he is doing the right thing or not?

Now, Yang Hao told him that Atletico Madrid will build a new tactical system around his characteristics and change the team's defense and passing system, which makes Neuer a little unbelievable.

But Yang Hao's requirements for him are not complicated. He still runs, receives, and passes. It's just that he used to do it in the penalty area. Now he can rush out of the penalty area at any time and get closer to the back line.

Also, he needs to put more thought into it, such as how to transfer the ball to the weak side, how to pass the ball accurately to the teammates in front, when to attack, when to retreat, how to communicate with teammates...

All of these are not only subverting Atletico Madrid's tactical system, but also subverting Neuer's understanding of goalkeepers.

"Frankly speaking, I still don't know if I can do a good job and meet your requirements."

Noelle looked at Yang Hao with a wry smile, and he felt the trust in Yang Hao's eyes.

A trust I've never had before.

It was as if Yang Hao was more sure than himself that he could do it!

This gave Neuer the urge to die for his bosom friend.

"But I can promise, boss, I will do my best. I will do whatever you ask me to do, and I will do whatever you tell me to do!"

After saying that, Neuer breathed a heavy sigh of relief.

He felt as if his whole body was relaxed, and his whole body seemed to become suddenly enlightened.

He now began to understand what he was going to do next and how he was going to do it.

The confusion of the past was gone, and he began to see the road ahead clearly.

Many people may not believe it, but Neuer really feels that Yang Hao and Atletico Madrid are really a very magical team, even though he has only joined for less than a month.

But looking back at Schalke 04, Neuer realized that he could no longer go back.

In other words, he no longer wants to go back.

Even if Yang Hao's plan fails in the end, he still wants to try it!

 It took me a long time to write this chapter, and it also killed a lot of my brain cells. It has been deleted, edited and changed a lot, but I still feel that people may want to curse after reading it, but I still want to write it out, otherwise it will always feel incomplete. , it’s like everyone knows that goalkeeper Neuer is awesome, but why is he awesome? Of course, this is also some of my own understanding and thinking, which may not necessarily be correct. Everyone is welcome to criticize and give advice! Thank you! !
