"Newcastle is not a fuel-efficient lamp."

Stephen Howard, the chief correspondent of The Sun, sat in the stands at St. Mary's Stadium and sighed rather sighfully.

The area where they are located is the media zone, surrounded by journalists from all over the world, most of whom are local British journalists, including reporters from authoritative newspapers such as The Times and The Guardian.

Sitting next to Stephen Howard is Charlene Lahry, who is known as the number one beauty in the British media field.

Charlene Lahry watched the game with a slightly frowning brow, with the spring onion index finger of her right hand resting on her lip, don't have a moving temptation.

After listening to Stephen Howard, she smiled faintly.

"How can a team that can be ranked in the forefront of the league have no patience?"

"I heard that Alan Padu and Demba Ba did not agree, but in this game Demba Ba still started, it seems that there should be no problem." Another Guardian reporter next to him analyzed.

Stephen Howard shook his head straight after hearing this, "It's not that simple. The problem must be a problem. Didn't Alan Padou say that his Ferrari was dismantled and he suspected that he was the one who had the wheel?"

Many people around nodded.

This incident was first disclosed by The Sun. Is there an exclusive news?

"After our investigation, the biggest suspect is Demba Ba"

When everyone heard what he said, they suddenly realized it.

If that were the case, how could there be no contradiction between the two?

"In the final analysis, Newcastle's tactics are not worth mentioning at all. They are just the typical changes in the English tradition of four or two, and the changes are mainly concentrated in the first two strikers, Dembaba and Cisse."

"The former has a strong body and acts as an arrow figure, while the latter is flexible and a little behind, forming a hierarchy, two sides, the right is Ben Alpha, standing forward, when taking the ball, cut from the right and form with two forwards. Trident."

"Gutierrez on the left is even further behind, acting as a full-back, and then forming a third midfielder with Cabayle and Tiot."

Stephen Howard said here, everyone immediately saw the situation clearly.

After all, it is the chief football reporter of the Sun, and the analysis of the game is sharp.

"Alan Padu is a coach with very rough tactics. He only has the big picture, no details."

Charlene Lahry clearly agreed with Stephen Howard's remarks.

"If we pay attention to Newcastle's lineup, we will find that the reason why the Magpies scored so much last season was the outstanding performance of the two Frenchmen, one is Ben Alpha on the right and the other is Cabayer in the center. They are the most creative players in the Newcastle team."

"That's right," Stephen Howard nodded in praise.

"Ben Alfa is not the core of the team's offensive at all. His biggest role in the front right is to use his personal ability to attract the opponent's defense and create gaps for teammates in the center, especially Kabaye."

When it comes to this, Stephen Howard himself feels strange.

"It stands to reason that with Bielsa's character and ability, there is no reason to not see this."

Charlene Laheri couldn't help but smile, "It's like a polite gentleman who has encountered a stubborn rascal who wants to play according to the rules of the game, but the rascal doesn't care about everything. Just hit it as soon as you come up, what do you think is there to do?"

Stephen Howard and everyone around couldn't help laughing.

Alan Padu’s team has never been known for creativity and offense. On the contrary, his team admires the simple, crude and direct English traditional playing style, and the offensive routines are also very rough.

"Actually, to say that Alan Padu has not changed in this game, it would be wrong to him."

Stephen Howard pointed to the court. It happened at this time that Dembaba retraced and tripped Tony Cross. The referee blew the foul whistle just right, but did not give a card.

"Charlene, have you noticed that Dembaba and Cisse have withdrawn, almost giving up on marking the two Southampton central defenders, more to cooperate with the midfielder, and oppress Southampton's two midfielders, Tony K. Rose and Modric."

Charlene Lahry nodded, "He just wants to limit Southampton's offense by limiting the two midfielders' shots, and then achieve the purpose of limiting Southampton's offense, forcing Southampton to use more long passes."

"Yes" Stephen Howard thinks that's the truth.

"Actually, Alan Padu is very clever. Newcastle has no chance of winning the ball. So he just gave up possession of the ball and directly suppressed your double midfielder, reducing your effective forward route as much as possible. ."

After a pause, Stephen Howard smiled confidently, "I'm sure, this must be the tactics of Alan Padu's game. The most emphasized, but also the most important point of the task."

"Bielsa's starting lineup is also a bit problematic. After Vidal was injured, there were obviously James Rodriguez, Isco, and even players like Cork, but he didn't need it, but chose the young player Pogba. , Too careless."

"There is also the frontcourt. Ibrahimovic is playing center. Hazard on the left is no problem. Gareth Bale is not on the right. Instead, it is the teenager Ravel Morrison who is starting. , This is a bit problematic."

"Newcastle's tactic is to attack from the right and defend from the left, so Southampton's right attack is very important. The right combination of Lavel Morrison and Danilo is the first time this season. How effective is it? I don't know, but why not use Gareth Bale?"

The Welshman's performance in Southampton this season is quite good, especially after the transition to the right, the performance is more comprehensive than at Tottenham Hotspur, the momentum of improvement is greater and more violent.

"Maybe it was for the fifth round of the Europa League group match against Russia's Anzhi team in midweek."

Charlene Laheri can only find such an excuse for Southampton.

Southampton played fairly well in the Europa League group stage. The first four rounds were three wins and one loss, with the same score as Russia's An Zhi.

However, the third-ranked Swiss youth team in this group is currently salivating for the right to qualify, and the gap is not obvious.

Therefore, Southampton must win this match against Russia's Anzhi.

"It can only be explained this way" Stephen Howard reluctantly accepted.

Otherwise, it's hard to imagine why Bielsa would choose Ravel Morrison to start without a player like Gareth Bale. This is totally unreasonable.

But if it is a rotation, then it is excusable.

After all, Southampton is now fighting on multiple lines

"Ten minutes"

Martin Hunter walked out of the coach's bench and came to the sidelines. He also squatted down next to Bielsa who was already on the sidelines.

Bielsa looked at Martin Hunt, who had been with him for two seasons, but this game will be his last game in the Southampton first team

After the game, he will go to the St. George Training Center to be responsible for the English Glorious Revolution Plan.

"We have no possession rate, but we haven't been able to form a threatening offense..."

Bielsa didn't wait for him to finish, and he replied, "There is no opponent."

Martin Hunter was speechless.

Newcastle does not have an effective offensive tactic, but this is not the same as Southampton’s ineffective offense, okay?

If you want to win this game, you must adjust the team's offense.

But Bielsa did not seem to pay attention to Martin Hunter's thoughts, but muttered to himself.

"Alan Padu allowed the two forwards to retreat so deeply. Although they pressed our double midfielders, they liberated our central defenders. At the same time, they sacrificed their attack."

Newcastle's formation is still quite traditional England's four forty-two tactics, but the position and functions of the players have slightly changed, which leads to Newcastle's tactics still being a cross from the side.

Therefore, Cisse had an eye-catching performance last season, and Dembaba shined brilliantly this season. This is the reason.

But when these two forwards appeared on the court at the same time, the problem came.

"It's not so easy to suppress our midfielder. They also have to pay a price."

Bielsa's thoughtless words suddenly made Martin Hunter shine.

Yes, Southampton's midfielder is strong, that's famous.

To suppress the Saints' midfielder, Newcastle has now dispatched Tiot, Kabaye and Gutierrez. Both strikers have to retreat.

In other words, three midfielders hold the other five players in check. How do you make Newcastle threaten?

"Then I will remind them." Martin Hunter stood up.

But Bielsa suddenly stopped him, "No need"

"No?" Martin Hunt was surprised, "Why not?"

Bielsa shook his head and smiled, "As I said before, coaches can only give pointers under the court, but the situation on the court changes rapidly, and the players have to learn how to adjust their tactical responsibilities according to the situation on the court."

"I hope my players can learn to be their own head coach, learn to read and analyze the game situation"

Having said this, Bielsa's eyes flashed with confidence, "I believe they will find out soon"

What Bielsa said, if my player is not human, then I will be invincible.

This does not mean that players must become robots, mechanically and blindly perform the tasks of the head coach.

Rather, it is emphasizing that the player’s execution and body

In fact, in Bielsa's tactical system, the flash of inspiration and creativity are a very important part.

It's just that these are built on the basis of integrating into the whole team and serving the whole team.

"I see" Martin Hunter realized once again.

Yes, it is too simple to dissolve Newcastle's tactics.

Just let Harvey Martinez and Varanedo hold the ball and take on organizational responsibilities.

This season, Gary Cahill gradually lost the trust of Bielsa and turned to vigorously support the young players such as Varane, Nastasic and Laporte. Isn't it to improve the defense's ability to take the ball and organize?

As long as the central defender can hold the ball, Newcastle will be miserable

Especially Denbaba and Cisse.

Do you want to target Tony Cross and Modric who missed the ball, or to target the two Saints central defenders who are responsible for the organization of the ball but are not within the team's tactics?

They will become headless flies

As long as they mess up, Newcastle's entire targeted defensive system will also mess up.

Martin Hunter suddenly discovered that everything that happened in this game didn't seem to be out of the control of the fat Argentine. He seemed to have considered all the things before the game~www .readwn.com~Lavier Morrison, Pogba, even the team coaching staff have some opinions.

But from now on, it seems that Bielsa didn't care about Newcastle at all, so he dared to be so big.

Fortunately, Alan Padu made a lot of talk before the game and made it seem as if the winner was already in hand.

As everyone knows, this little trick of his is not worth mentioning in the eyes of Bielsa.

The reason why Bielsa does not break the game now is to train his troops. He is guiding his players to try to read and analyze the game.

Thinking of this, Martin Hunt couldn't help but raise his head, looked at the Southampton goal, and immediately caught a gratifying scene.

It turned out that Neuer was waving at Harvey Martinez and Varane, calling them over.

Have a show
