Chapter 329 The Transformation of the Old Demon Front

Li Yuming's position as a center forward also messed up Hertha Berlin's defense line. The two central defenders originally arranged by Darday were not tall enough, and they were not good at speed.

It's no wonder that Darday's formation is like this. Small clubs are like this. If someone uses it, they will be happy. There are so many talent reserves.

If there is a large reserve of talent, Hertha Berlin will not be reduced to the daily slogan of "relegation first".

As a double head coach of the club and the national team, Dardai still has a certain foundation.

After Solskjaer's change of tactics emerged, he immediately made a corresponding remedy-letting a slightly tall midfielder retreat to the back line to form a five-back position.

As a result, Hertha Berlin's back line has also become very crowded, but at least it has a certain advantage in the number of defensive players.

But on the football field, the number of people is not the key point to determine the outcome. Hertha Berlin added one person to the back line to form a five-back position, and their frontcourt offense basically failed.

Not to mention attacking, even counterattacking can't find a counterattack point.

As a result, Frankfurt's midfield also took the opportunity to press hard, completely occupying Hertha Berlin's midfield. Even, Frankfurt only left Russ as a central defender in their own backcourt. Even Alventosa They have all pressed forward to the midfield to respond.

Such a situation is destined to make it almost impossible for Hertha Berlin to take three points at the Commerzbank Stadium. (Football has no absolutes, so the word "almost" is used here!)

Not to mention three points, it is very difficult to even hold the second half and steal 1 point from the Commercial Bank Stadium.

After completing the formation change, the Frankfurt players stopped hiding and showed their [-] martial arts very directly.

Odegaard made continuous breakthroughs from the wing, dazzled the opponent's defender's titanium alloy X-eye, although the cross was blocked by the opponent's central defender's buttocks, but such a situation became the epitome of Frankfurt's presence on the field—— Constantly use the speed advantage of the wing to break through and pull the pass, but the number of people in the opponent's penalty area is too large, and often the crosses sent into the penalty area from the wing will be headed out by the opponent.

Solskjaer is not in a hurry, as long as he keeps attacking, he does not believe that he has no chance to break Hertha Berlin's goal.

This is the way English football is played, constantly using long passes to send to the head of the high center forward, and using the height and size of the high center forward to attack the opponent's defense.

Although there is no "picturesque" of passing and controlling football, English football also has their advantages. Passing and controlling football depends on cooperation. If the players don't call, no matter how much passing and controlling football is practiced, it may not have much effect.

Solskjaer, a player who has become famous in the Premier League, doesn't call Spain's pass-and-control football at all.

When he was coaching Cardiff City, Solskjaer didn't have as many cards as Frankfurt, but Solskjaer still relied on a group of strong Welsh lads to play the "Welsh version of the Hammer Gang" in the Premier League. smell.

Although it was unfortunate that he was relegated in the end, Solskjaer could still satisfy the Welsh fans during his coaching period in Cardiff City. I wonder if Chen Zhiyuan, a local tyrant, will regret firing Babyface?
Dardai kept shouting to the players on the field: "Hold, hold! Don't lose your position, don't send free kicks!"

But the Hertha Berlin players have been fooled by Frankfurt's frantic attack. At this moment, Hertha Berlin made various mistakes in the midfield. It was punched through, and if it was Meyer who grabbed points in the middle, Frankfurt would now be 2-0 ahead!

Speaking of Li Yuming playing the center position, this is really a little bit funny...

On that day, after Solskjaer finished chatting with Hoffman, he greeted Li Yuming: "Hey, Bruce is here, yes, don't train for now, I have something to ask you."

Since he got along very well with the new coach Solskjaer, Li Yuming dropped the ball and ran over without hesitation when he was greeted by the baby face.

"Coach Ole, what's wrong???"

"Hey, it's like this, Bruce, let me ask you something, have you...have you ever been a center forward?"

"Uh..." Li Yuming felt a little uneasy when he heard this sentence. He probably guessed what Solskjaer was going to do.

"Yes... In a cup match in China, I served as a center forward for more than ten minutes. At that time, the formation was 4-4-2, and my partner was Chi Dongyuan, a high center forward who once played for Dortmund."

"Hey! That's fine!" Solskjaer smiled mysteriously: "Bruce, that's it, I entrust you with a heavy responsibility!!!"

Li Yuming was stunned: "Coach Ole, don't you want me to take the captain's place in the next game and take the center forward position?"

"That's right." Solskjaer nodded heavily: "Young man, you are very smart. Since you guessed it, then it's settled."

Without waiting for Li Yuming's reply, Solskjaer burst out laughing, and went straight to the training ground, leaving behind Li Yuming who hadn't recovered.

At this moment, in Li Yuming's mind, there are millions of words in the grass and mud horse galloping!
"Center! How can I play as a center!" Li Yuming cursed Solskjaer silently in circles.

In Li Yuming's view, it would be a fatal thing if he didn't have such a large space on the side for him to start and break through. He was used to the sideways, and for him, cutting inside was the kingly way, and As the center position, this means that Li Yuming needs more high balls and low balls sent by his teammates in the middle.

But since Solskjaer said so, Li Yuming had no choice but to complain silently in his heart, the dedicated Li Yuming hurriedly threw himself into the training session.

On the same day, Solskjaer let Li Yuming play the center forward directly, and Jonas Hoffman, who returned from injury, replaced Li Yuming as the left winger.

But I didn't expect that such a match would give a different taste.

Although Hoffman does not have the exaggerated speed of Li Yuming, as a native German player, the cooperation between Hoffman and Frankfurt's midfielder is directly integrated into the team's tactical system without even running in.

And because of Li Yuming's amazing jumping in the air, he can also hit a lot of beautiful headers in the middle, although the results of grabbing points with low-level balls are a bit horrible~
But for such "results", Solskjaer is still satisfied. After all, he does not want Li Yuming to play the center position in the future.

Meyer is missing two games due to injury, which means that Li Yuming only needs to play two games. When Meyer returns from injury, Li Yuming will naturally return to his left side and continue to be a "man like the wind". (cough cough, lunatic for short~hehe~)

And in these two games, no matter how unaccustomed Li Yuming was, he had to hold on in the middle until captain Meyer recovered from his injury. (Alexander Meyer was sitting on the bench, thinking to himself: If this young man plays well, I will rest for two more games. Well, Li Yuming must not know this, otherwise Li Yuming will vomit blood.)
Why is Li Yuming so unaccustomed to moving from the side to the middle?

There are two reasons for this: 1. When attacking from the side, Li Yuming faces the defensive players more sideways, while playing center forward in the middle, Li Yuming often needs to get the ball with his back.

2. When attacking from the side, Li Yuming mainly faces only one full-back. In the middle, Li Yuming needs to resist the attack of two strong central defenders.

In this way, Li Yuming was not only uncomfortable holding the ball, but also in the attack, due to the lack of space, Li Yuming had no way to increase his speed at all.

Now Li Yuming knows how much pressure Alexander Meyer has as a 33-year-old center forward.

In fact, aging strikers are sometimes not a bad thing.

For example, the Roman prince Totti we know well, and Udinese's living fossil-level old demon frontman Di Natale. (It has to be said that Di Natale has scored more than 10 goals this season...37 years old, 33 rounds, 12 goals, 7 assists, how many so-called super centers will be ashamed of such data?)

Of course, these two played the position of a shadow forward, mainly relying on consciousness rather than relying on their bodies to fight in the frontcourt.

This also shows the strength of Meyer-playing as a standing center at the age of 33, and scored a hat-trick in the game against Freiburg. It has to be said that all of Meyer's three goals From the header.

Of course, Myer's state this season has declined compared to last season.

After all, age is such a realistic thing that no one can stop it, let alone Alexander Meyer. It is estimated that after 33 years old, Ronaldo can't always play with two strong central defenders on the front line.

Generally speaking, standing centers generally choose to transform after they get old!

Some will choose to retreat, and some will choose to move to the side. For example, Kanoute, a foreign aid who once played for BJ Guoan, was once a very good standing center.

But in the second season of Guoan, he was transformed into a tall midfielder, playing for Guoan's frontcourt offensive players at the time.

There are also some who move to the side, such as the old demon in the Netherlands.

He used to be Liverpool's official striker, and later, he became a winger, and later... when he represented the Netherlands in the World Cup in Brazil, he played as a full-back...

It can be said that Dirk Dirk completed the two changes of moving side and then retreating.

Of course, the change of Dirk is still very successful. After all, he can represent the Dutch national team in the World Cup at the center position, and he can also play at the full-back position.

This is enough to prove how strong he is.
