Chapter 193 Follow the boss and work hard
Gao Han has always felt deeply sorry for Jike.
It can be said that Kiko at her peak was definitely the most comprehensive high center forward in Spain in the past few years.
Excellent physical fitness, delicate footwork, good speed and impact, comprehensive ability to hold the ball and make the ball on the back, and even retreat to meet the midfield and participate in the frontcourt organization of the offense...
Kiko is almost an encyclopedia of a high center forward. No matter which one he picks out, even if he is not top-notch, he is at least excellent.
Now, many Atletico Madrid fans believe that Kiko is old and automatically classifies him as a veteran.
But in fact, he is only twenty-nine years old!
A 29-year-old full-scale center who was supposed to be in the golden age, but was tortured by injuries and had to retreat behind the scenes, and even almost retired early. This is indeed a very sad thing.
Gao Han felt even more regretful when he heard Kiko's statement on the spot.
After Harvey Alonso was injured, he had looked for some cards such as recovery from injuries in the store. Although he couldn't find one suitable for Harvey Alonso, it seemed that there was one suitable for Keko.
Well, if you have time, you can look for it. If it is not expensive, buy it and Bangbangjike.
It would be a good thing if we could save this high center forward in our prime.
While Gao Han was regretting Kiko outside the door, the discussion in the sun room continued.
As the team's head coach, Gao Han has always highly praised the discussions within the team, and he even hopes that everyone in the team will join this discussion atmosphere, because this can help players understand their teammates more deeply and the team.
For example, midfielder Gabby raised a question: As a midfielder in the midfield, how should we cooperate with the players in front, back and left, how to connect the front and back courts, and even control the entire game?
This question is very big, but it is very important. Even Gao Han outside the door is very interested.
Deco was the first to express his thoughts, and he believed that the most important thing was to be familiar with each of his teammates.
"I position my role as a supporter. We need to understand the characteristics of our teammates, their playing style and habits, such as Kaka. When he retreats back and responds, I guess the direction he wants me to pass in his side."
Everyone immediately looked at Kaka.
The Brazilian midfielder smiled shyly, obviously accusing Deco's statement.
"Because this makes it easier for him to use his speed to get rid of the defensive players behind him and directly sprint."
Everyone suddenly realized that this was indeed the case.
No wonder Deco cooperated with Kaka so well on the court and called like this.
"Also, Kaka likes to get into gaps. If he encounters the opponent's tight defense, he usually won't take risks easily. So if he passes the ball to him, he has to run into the gap immediately because he will pass it back at any time."
When everyone heard this, they were so impressed that they were filled with admiration.
"Every player has different characteristics and habits. As a double striker, David and Fernando have different playing habits, but they also have the same things. For example, they are very fast and the defensive players can't keep up. It's very threatening to penetrate the big penalty area from both ribs. It's also very stable after the goal kick. So if you have the chance, you should pass more of this ball to them."
Deco's words were not only praised by the players in the room, but even Gao Han nodded repeatedly.
As the team's head coach, Gao Han can only grasp the overall situation. Even if the arrangement is detailed, he can only start with tactics and routines. However, for such a player, the players need to think about it themselves.
Looking at the room, many players were getting something, and Marcos Senna looked very rewarding.
This player is not young, but his learning ability is extremely strong and his progress is very obvious.
"Anderson said it well. A qualified midfielder must be familiar with his teammates around him."
Harvey Alonso also agreed with Deco, "But I still have one question to ask Pep."
Guardiola looked at his competitor strangely, a little surprised, not understanding what it means, but he nodded and replied: "Please say it."
"I have been sitting in the stands in the last three games. The boss asked me to pay close attention to your every move on the court. You give me the feeling that you can see a lot of things that others can't see. You seem to be able to always be faster than your opponents, or even teammates around you. I want to ask, how did you do it?"
When Harvey Alonso asked this, many people present also felt the same.
To talk about the past three games, many people have praised Kaka, Gemini, and even Cuadeco, but there are very few people who have praised Guardiola because they think that Guardiola's performance is not obvious and it is quite common.
But only the players on the court know that Guardiola did a very good job in the midfield.
Even Xavi Alonso, who is a competitor, has to admire him.
When the opponent wants to be fast, Guardiola has a way to slow down the pace; when the opponent wants to be slow, Guardiola can always raise the pace, which makes the opponent always at a very awkward rhythm.
No matter whether the opponent wants to push up or retreat, he always has a way to deal with it.
As a midfielder, especially a midfielder, Xavi Alonso knows that this is not just experience, but also an understanding of football. It is a valuable asset that many people have never realized after playing professional football for their whole life.
Even to some extent, this is the difference between a superstar and an ordinary player.
Guardiola obviously did not expect that his competitor would ask such an indescribable question.
But he still thought about it, smiled and shook his head, "This question is really hard to answer."
There was a burst of laughter when he was present.
"So, what do you think is the biggest difference between watching games in the stands and watching games on the court?"
Harvey Alonso frowned and thought, "The vision is higher and broader."
"That's right!" Guardiola nodded and praised. This is also a very smart player.
"Many times, fans in the stands, or even in front of the TV have a complaint. Such a good opportunity, why don't you pass the ball? Or they will scold you, and it's clear that there is an empty space on the left, why do you pass it to the right?"
Everyone laughed tacitly again.
Everyone has experienced this kind of experience, especially the difficulties made by media reporters.
"In fact, this is what a different vision is brought about, because on the court, we are limited to our own vision and can only see an extremely narrow part of the court, while in the stands and in front of the TV, what the audience sees is the whole."
Everyone nodded, Guardiola's words were right.
"But we all know that midfielders, especially the core of the team's organization, need to understand the changes in the entire court, from front to back, from left to right, every player, every inch of grass, every second, but how is this possible?"
Everyone present had a deep feeling about this.
On the court, the narrow limitations of vision are completely incomprehensible to those who have never played football.
Gao Han even thought that it would be particularly appropriate to describe it as an ancient poem.
It looks like a ridge and a peak on the side, with different distances and heights. It does not recognize the true face of Mount Lu because it is in this mountain.
"I have also asked many people about this issue, including Cruyff. Gradually, I realized that this is a doubt and dilemma that all professional players will face. If you want to reduce the limitations brought by your vision, you can only observe!"
"Observation?" Many people were surprised and lost their voices.
But many people also had their eyes lit up and felt like they had gained something.
"Yes, we must start before the game. We must be familiar with every player on both sides of the enemy and us, their playing habits, their personality, their game status in recent times, and even estimate their tasks and performance in the game."
"From the moment I walked into the court, I kept observing, both the game, both the enemy and us, and every player, every minute or even every second."
"Through this kind of observation, let your eyes capture as much content as possible, sort out and analyze it in your mind, and restore a real game, which makes us look down in the stands, or watching live TV videos."
Everyone was stunned when they heard this.
This is no longer physical football, it is simply mental football.
Gao Han stood outside the door and kept nodding. Guardiola was right at all.
The organization of modern football is becoming more and more stringent, and the tactics are becoming more and more complicated. This requires players on the court not only to use their physical strength, but also to think constantly.
Gao Han firmly believes that the development trend of football will definitely be like this in the next few years.
Not only the midfielder needs this vision and thinking, but almost every position on the court needs it.
Because football is always a team sports of eleven people!
In the sun room, everyone was still digesting Guardiola's words, and everyone believed that he was teaching his lifelong professional experience in heart and soul.
Whether it is admitting it or not, just this idea will surpass most stars.
"Just simply is not enough. On the football field, we must grasp the trend of the game and adjust ourselves and the team at any time according to the situation. For example, the opponent attacks the right side by wildly, and we must figure out why, find the problem, solve the problem, and then restrain the opponent, and even reverse the situation."
Speaking of this, Guardiola suddenly showed a look of admiration.
"I have discussed it with Mr. Gao Han several times. He is the most special one among the head coaches I have ever seen. His philosophy and tactics attach great importance to the thinking of players and self-positioning on the court. Even his training serves this, full of various choices and unpredictability."
"Although I have only been in Madrid for a few days, I have already experienced this and have benefited a lot."
Guardiola smiled and swept to the group of young teammates in front of her, and said with a smile: "Follow the boss and work hard. I believe that in time, we will surely succeed and you will surely make great progress."
Many people present were full of amazement.
Guardiola's words solved the doubts in the hearts of many of them and also gave them very profound inspiration.
Outside the door, Gao Han didn't expect that Guardiola would give him such a high evaluation.
This legendary Spanish midfielder's understanding of football is indeed profound and unique. Gao Han is also honored to be able to get such a high evaluation from him.
But he himself knew in his heart what all this was because of.
To make a blacksmith still requires one's own strength. Gao Han understands that there are too many things he needs to learn.
