This is more effective than Pan Yi giving lectures alone.

Moreover, when everyone adds firewood, there may be some key points that Pan Yi missed that will be discovered and raised by the teaching assistants, so that more problems can be solved.

"Actively compress the distance between the defense line and the three lines to engage in defensive counterattacks? This is the method you used to play against Barcelona when you were in Milan." Inzaghi quickly replied.

"This is indeed a way, but I want to have an offensive battle with Barcelona at home this time." Pan Yi said with a smile, "Everyone says that no one can play against Barcelona and control the ball. I want to give it a try. .”

Everyone looked up at Pan Yi, with a hint of surprise in their eyes.

After all, Barcelona is the best ball-controlling team in the world, bar none!

Almost all teams will be at a disadvantage in terms of ball possession when facing Barcelona.

This is not because all teams do not want to compete with Barcelona for possession of the ball, but because they simply cannot control it!

Hababerme, these four people can kill all the team's midfielders.

Therefore, when facing Barcelona, ​​most teams will obediently give up the ball and then respond with quick counterattacks.

Real Madrid has done this in recent years, and Pan Yi did the same when he was in Milan, and in the end it achieved good results.

But now, Pan Yi actually said that he wants to compete with Barcelona in possession of the ball? Isn't this a little too arrogant?

"When I talk about ball possession, I don't actually mean that we have to overwhelm Barcelona in terms of ball possession. This is really difficult to do, and there is no need." Pan Yi explained, "We only need to do it according to their style of play.

By responding to and finding their weaknesses to launch an attack, we can form a ball control advantage in a local area and within a local time, which is enough."

"We can use fast-paced passing to deal with the opponent's high pressure, and at the same time raise the encounter line to limit Barcelona's short passing ball organization." After listening to Pan Yi's words, Nargelsmann thought for a while and said, "Then targeted

Keep an eye on the opponent's central midfielder, especially midfielder Busquets, in order to strangle their main ball release point in the midfield and backcourt, so that you may be able to compete with them for possession of the ball."

Pan Yi nodded appreciatively at Nagelsmann and motioned for him to continue speaking.

Nagelsmann took out his iPad and swiped it a few times, and some images and tables appeared on the big screen in the conference room.

This is based on the analysis of Barcelona's recent game data collected by scouts and coaches, which can effectively help the coaching staff objectively study the opponent's situation.

"Barcelona's offense can be said to be strong without any blind spots. The three-way offense and defense are balanced, and the offensive methods are diverse - through balls, short passes, and crosses are all proficient. In fact, it is difficult to target."

"But comparing their offensive and defensive data vertically, we can find that their access to the ball and the number of defensive actions in the backcourt are less than average. This shows that Barcelona adopts a high defense line, that is, the backcourt

Players press deeper."

"In this case, we can arrange the forward forwards to stay close to the opponent's defenders and advance immediately as soon as the ball comes to suppress their high defense line. This can make them afraid to press forward too much, and it can also allow us to regain a certain amount of points.

Initiative.”

Pan Yi nodded again.

Among the coaches he has now, Nagelsmann is indeed the strongest.

Not only will he have a deeper understanding of tactics, but he will also be better at using data to conduct scientific analysis and then find the opponent's weaknesses.

This is the power of science!

"Then let me add something." Pan Yi pointed to the left position on the tactical board, "In fact, Barcelona also has weaknesses. First of all, it is their starting left back, Adriano."

"His ability is far inferior to that of right back Alves. We can set up a pressure trap based on this point to induce the opponent's players to pass the ball to his feet, and then use steals and counterattacks."

"So in terms of overall tactics, we will choose to defend the center and let their two wingers get more of the ball. At the same time, we also have to keep an eye on the opponent's three contact points in the center."

"The encounter line really requires preconditions to interfere with Barcelona's short passes and force the opponent to separate the sides early when the ball is released in the backcourt. Then what I just said is to lock their right side and put left back Adria

Nuo broke through along the sideline, but was prevented from connecting with the powerful central group with his right foot."

"This will make it easier for our two-man side to press and strangle the isolated Adriano."

"Of course, it is not 100% possible to prevent him. If he succeeds in breaking through after a sudden attack, his cross will still have a chance for Messi, Neymar or Pedro in the middle to grab a shot."

"Therefore, we need to use the physical advantage of our central defender to drive their forwards away from the penalty area to reduce the side effects of Adriano's mistakes leading to the opponent's cross and shot."

"At the same time, we must also cooperate with the high encounter line and regain the ball when the opponent is playing and advancing!..."

Listening to Pan Yi's words, everyone in the conference room nodded slightly while thinking.

Pan Yi's words are basically an expansion of the tactics Nagelsmann said, and they are more detailed and targeted.

Especially the targeted deployment of Barcelona left back Adriano, it was like digging a big hole for Barcelona to jump into.

At this time, Inzaghi raised his hand: "We have freed up Adriano on the left, but Alves and Messi on the right are still a great threat to the connection. How to suppress their performance?"

Pan Yi pointed to the position of Barcelona’s right center back on the tactical board:

"Through Pique. When our forwards are pressing, they should try to force Pique to use his left foot. This can cut off his path to the right for Alves as much as possible. At the same time, this will also help to drive the ball to

Pressure trap on the left.”

"In this way, Adriano, who is weaker and isolated on the left, will be more likely to take on the task of advancing. This is the result we most want."

"With more attacks on the left, Alves on the right will naturally get less of the ball, and the threat posed by the connection between him and Messi will naturally be weakened."

Nagelsmann also asked: "What about their midfield? Busquets will often return to the central defender position to get the ball, and he can also transfer the ball to Alves."

Pan Yi smiled and said: "This is the question I want to talk about next."

Indeed, every time a team meets Barcelona, ​​everyone will study Messi, Xavi and Iniesta, but sometimes there are always people who forget Busquets.

But Pan Yi will never forget it.

Busquets is known as one of the greatest defensive midfielders in the history of football. He redefined the single defensive midfielder's style of play. He is the most overlooked superstar of this era. He is called a "ball-blind filter" by fans.

”.

"If you watch the whole game, you won't see Busquets, but if you watch Busquets, you will see the whole game." This is the most famous comment made by Spanish national team coach Del Bosque to Busquets.

When the young Busquets made his Barcelona debut, Cruyff, the discerning godfather of Barcelona, ​​gave him such a high evaluation: "Whether he has the ball or not, he plays so expertly. When there is the ball,

He can make complex situations simple with one or two touches, and without the ball, he can get into the right position ready to intercept and counter-attack."

Busquets is a typical player who plays with his brain. Cruyff likes him, Guardiola likes him, Del Bosque also likes him very much, including now Martino and later Enrique... all like him.

Him, this in itself shows his strength.

But when you think of Busquets, are his goals the first thing you think of? Probably not.

In the UEFA Champions League semi-finals of the 2009-10 season, Busquets performed one of the most famous scenes of his career. Facing Inter Milan midfielder Thiago Motta, he exaggeratedly covered his face and fell to the ground, causing Motta to be sent off.

What is more famous is the amazing glimpse left by Busquets. Since then, Busquets has been named "Professor Bu" because his acting skills can be regarded as the level of an acting professor at the Academy of Art.

But in fact, Busquets is full of fake moves when he plays football, and he has 200 thoughts. He is well-deserved to be called "Professor Busquets".

Busquets' iconic V-shaped pull looks very simple, but all the simplicity is the result of calculations made by his brain running at high speed.

In the single defensive midfielder position, Busquets can quickly catch the ball, get rid of it, and release the ball. He can accurately give the frontcourt space at the first time and easily break the pressure. In Busquets' turn, Barcelona and Spain can complete the offense and defense.

conversion.

It can be said that Busquets is like a book. When the pages are spread out, they are inconspicuous. When they are closed, what we see is a masterpiece.

And to defeat Barcelona, ​​the first thing to do is to tear this book apart!

"... His physical fitness is not very good, the coverage area is not enough, and the backcourt pressure is not enough. Especially when Barcelona's TIKI-TAKA system is crushed by us, Busquets' shortcomings will be exposed."

"In other words, every time they handed the ball to Busquets, we had to squeeze and fight for him mercilessly, forcing him to fight us hand-to-hand. Especially when he tried to pass to Alves on the right.

Ball time!”

"In this way, his shortcomings will be infinitely magnified, and his advantages of good position selection and simple handling of the ball will not be brought into play. In this way, the connection between him and Alves will be cut off, and then he will have no choice but to

Then pass the ball back to Adriano on the left..."

After talking about various targeted arrangements for Barcelona, ​​Pan Yi talked about some of his own tactics.

"We use a deep-lying midfielder + two central defenders, which is equivalent to three defenders playing the ball to deal with Barcelona's forward pressure. The other two central midfielders must also retreat in time to serve as the ball-delivering point for the defensive midfielder to make up for the midfielder's pressure.

The shortcomings of insufficient midfield coverage.”

"This can form a short passing system of three central defenders + two midfielders, and can smoothly liberate both defenders and enter the high position."

"Among them, our right back Carvajal will be the core of the game. I will ask the players to use more short passes + go to the right more often, and use the right back as the first point to receive the ball from the backcourt.

, take on more advancement tasks.”

"In front of him, right winger Salah will actively support Carvajal's advancement. The purpose is for the two of them to hug each other, forming an ultimate wing overload and completely defeating the pressure trap that has been tortured over and over again.

Adriano again!”

"At the same time, in order to prevent their wingers and midfielders from helping the wings to defend, our offensive wings need to be narrowed to contain these opponents' players in the center as much as possible."

"This allows the two of us to hug the wings and play 2 on 1 to destroy the opponent's single full-back."

"Finally, we will have a backup offensive line on the left, that is, against Barcelona's right, allowing Robertson and Son Heung-min to use flexible road movements to stretch and attack the space behind Alves, which can also limit their right side.

The performance of Lu finally shifted their offensive focus to the left..."

Listening to Pan Yi's explanation, everyone now understands.

In general, Pan Yi's tactics include almost all instructions and player responsibilities, which are all based on a well-founded pursuit of Barcelona's weaknesses.

And as long as Barcelona's weakness is discovered and destroyed, the initiative in the situation will naturally come to Hamburg.

As a result, the coaches began to believe what Pan Yi said at the beginning of the meeting.

It is really possible for them to regain control at Barcelona's feet and defeat Barcelona in the way Barcelona is most familiar with!
