Chapter 244 Excellent but hardly great! Suggestions given by Mullensdin!
The Guardian: Excellent, but hardly great!
The Sun: The secret that Wang Shen has to tell about his weak legs!
Looking at the headlines of the two newspapers, Wang Shen rolled his eyes and threw them out.
"Don't disgust me with these two newspapers in the future, Isabella, there is no need for us to increase subscriptions to them."
After listening to Wang Shen's words, Isabella nodded in approval.
Then he took out Man Wan, which of course contained the same compliments as before.
But between the lines, there are mentions of Raphael's outstanding achievements.
All right.
The best player last night was indeed Rafael.
Although in terms of offense and assists, it is difficult to see his presence.
But let’s not talk about the several rescues.
The suddenness of many forward penetrations was the fundamental reason for Manchester United's victory.
Man Wan is still professional enough.
Even though Wang Shen was highly praised, it did not kill Raphael's achievements.
Other newspapers are not so "professional".
Including The Times, which always wants to appear "just", it also praised Wang Shen to the highest level.
In short, while Wang Shen is competing for the FIFA Ballon d'Or, don't expect to see bad things about him in English newspapers.
Of course, those two companies must be excluded.
Driving to the training base in the afternoon, Wang Shen was stopped by a swarm of reporters at the door.
In the past, he would naturally avoid it.
But the FA had secretly communicated to him before, hoping that he would cooperate with the exposure so that the FA could use this to work for him.
So Wang Shen had to stop and accept a short interview.
The problems at the beginning were all "normal", and the traces of the arrangement were still very obvious.
But later, "real" reporters slowly began to appear, and Wang Shen was ready to refuse on the grounds of limited time.
But a question caught his attention:
"What do you want to say about Maradona's evaluation of you?"
This was the first time he faced this kind of inquiry, so he was silent for a short time and then said:
"I think Mr. Maradona is right. I am still very clumsy on the court and need to work harder to catch up with those geniuses."
"Are you saying you are not as good as Messi?"
another reporter asked, instantly drawing disapproving looks from his colleagues.
Wang Shen looked at his press card.
If it is media from Barcelona, then there will be no problem.
"I think I'm good enough, this gentleman, but I'm just not great yet. I think I'll learn from Mr. Maradona."
After saying this, Wang Shen was no longer interested in being interviewed and entered the training base directly with the help of security guards.
"You don't have to answer all interviews, King, that would be counterproductive."
said Beckham, who walked into the training base with him.
Wang Shen nodded to express his understanding, and then was stopped by Peilan in front of the locker room.
"Go find Meulensteen, he is waiting for you in the tactics room."
Perrin said to him.
"You only have theory classes this afternoon and don't need to participate in training."
"What happened?" Wang Shen asked doubtfully.
"From good to great, King, he wants to help you complete this step."
After Perrin finished speaking, he motioned for him to go quickly, and Wang Shen could only bid farewell to Beckham and leave.
…
"No player is perfect, King, not just offensively and defensively."
The first words Mullensdin spoke made Wang Shen confused.
"Even when it comes to offense or defense alone, it is difficult for anyone to be called perfect."
"I don't know what you mean, coach!"
Wang Shen blinked twice and said in confusion.
"I mean……"
Mullensdin frowned and thought for a moment.
"Ronaldo's body is too weak to withstand injuries, and Messi's headers are not even comparable to those of ordinary forwards.
"Zidane will slip away in unimportant games, Ronaldo needs the support of his teammates too much.
"Uh... do you understand what I mean?"
"Are you saying that all players have their own shortcomings?" Wang Shen asked.
"Yes, but if you look at it from another angle, the shortcomings are also derived from their strengths."
Mullensdin nodded and explained.
"Ronaldo's pendulum pass hurt his knees too much, which was the main factor in his physical deterioration.
"Messi's header is due to his height, but his short height also gives him a stronger ability to change directions.
"Zidane always slips away because he has a rich imagination, which is why he always makes unexpected choices.
"Cristiano Ronaldo needs more support from his teammates because he is moving towards the terminator, which is irreversible."
Mullensdin's explanation made Wang Shen fall into deep thought, and he spoke slowly after a long time.
"Are you saying that I should make more use of my strengths, even if it exposes my weaknesses?"
Wang Shen's inquiry attracted Mullensdin's admiring gaze.
"Yes, it's easy to talk to smart people."
After Mullenstine finished speaking, he began to write on the tactical board.
He first wrote about sliding tackle and interception awareness, and then wrote in smaller text at the end:
Marking, tackling.
"The big characters represent your strengths and the small characters represent your weaknesses. What can you tell from this?"
Mullensdin's question made Wang Shen frown. He paused for a moment and replied:
"Does it mean I'm only suitable to be a defensive midfielder and not a central defender?"
"That's just one of the answers."
Meulensteen has his finger on interception awareness.
"The excellence of this ability allows you to quickly determine the team's weak points when returning to defense."
Meulensteen said and moved his fingers sideways on the sliding shovel.
"And the excellence of this ability allows you to tackle directly from the side without having to make unnecessary movements, so..."
Wang Shen swallowed and said as he watched Mullensdin indicate what he was going to say next.
"So I don't need to defend with others at all, but only need to block the opening or directly..." based on my own judgment.
"Yes, that's it."
Meulensteen directly used the pen in his hand to eliminate the marking and steal two options.
"Since they are not outstanding enough, let them go.
"You are in the frontcourt. There is no need to do the work of a defensive midfielder when returning to defense in an emergency."
When Wang Shen recalled some of his past actions, he felt that they were superfluous.
Instead of chasing the opposing defender, it is better to directly block the gap or look for opportunities to tackle.
"The same goes for defense, and the same goes for offense."
