Creativity, the Wikipedia interpretation, is the creation of new and valuable things.

This term has been widely used in media reporters’ reports and fans’ discussions, but so far, no one has been able to summarize the word simply, which makes it seem extremely empty.

It may be a good goal, an unconventional pass, or an incredible goal...

All of these are easily understood as creativity.

Known as the most creative comedy master in British history, John Chris once said: "Creativity cannot be explained, it is completely indescribable. It is not a talent, but a way of behavior."

John Chris believes that everyone has creativity, but the degree of digging and choice are different.

In recent years, many players from mainland Europe, including Pire, Borgkamp, ​​Fabregas and Arteta, have injected refreshing creativity into the Premier League. They are like graceful elves on the court, shuttled between the opponent's defenses, creating panic and chaos.

They are either good at confusing defensive players, tempting them to leave their defensive positions, and taking the initiative to rob them and defend them, leaving a large gap behind them for their own offensive players to use; or they are good at capturing fleeting fighter jets, passing them with precision like scalpels, cutting open the opponent's defense line, and creating fatal murderous intent.

Many people say that this is a talent, but is it really the case?

If Borgkamp fails to protect the ball after taking the ball to attract the opponent's defensive players, resulting in the ball being cut off and the opponent scores the ball through a counterattack, is Borgkamp's behavior creative?

If Fabregas keenly seizes the fighter plane, but passes the ball to the opponent's defensive player with one foot, or passes it out of the baseline with a big foot, causing the teammates who run out of the gap to return in vain, then will Fabregas' behavior still be creative?

It is obvious that the creativity they show on the football field is not their unique talent, but is universal, but it is only because they have better personal abilities than everyone else, which makes them more accurate on the football field.

Yes, accurate.

Borgkamp can accurately predict the defensive players' snatch, and accurately use footwork skills to get rid of the opponent, and accurately pass the ball to his teammates who are inserted into the gap. After Fabregas keenly captured the murderous intent, he can use his exquisite footwork to accurately pass the ball to where he wants it to go.

That's why John Chris said: "Telling others how to be more creative is easy, but it's the hardest to do it."

...

After listening to Gao Han's words, Brian Kidd's above thoughts suddenly emerged in his mind.

He suddenly realized what Gao Han meant.

As both play as a three-back, why is Hodel's Chelsea in a quagmire and unable to move forward, but Evans' Liverpool can make great strides and shine?

The reason is simple. Evans' Liverpool team is filled with players with excellent technical skills such as McManaman, Collimore and Redknapp. They play the most exciting technical football in the Premier League. They are hailed as one of the most gorgeous and creative teams in the Premier League history, and have achieved accuracy that other teams are difficult to achieve.

The reason why Ferguson's Class 92 was able to dominate the Premier League was precisely because they achieved accuracy. The decline in the past few years was precisely because of the departure of Beckham and Keane, and the aging of players such as Giggs and Scholes, which made it difficult for Manchester United to maintain the accuracy at its peak. Their mistakes began to increase.

Brian Kidd suddenly felt that he understood Gao Han's meaning.

But when he thought deeper, he couldn't help but be even more surprised and even felt a creepy feeling.

Gao Han's pursuit is a higher level of accuracy than his league competitors, such as running, passing and receiving, pitch, etc., and while pursuing accuracy, he adopts the three, four, and three formation style.

The mainstream European football world is the 433 formation. The advantages of this formation are obvious. The three lines are more compact, the arrangement of the three midfielders is more reasonable, the offense is more layered, and the use of the wing road more efficiently, while giving off attackers more room for freedom.

But the disadvantage is also very obvious, that is, the positions of the three offensive players in the front court are relatively fixed, and they rely too much on the players' personal abilities, one-on-one breakthroughs create threats. Once they encounter meticulous defense, the offensive threat will be greatly reduced.

Therefore, strictly speaking, the 433 formation has high requirements for the players' personal abilities and is not something that ordinary teams can use. Therefore, it is more of a standard configuration for giant teams or strong teams.

What about the three, four, and three formations?

Everyone agreed that the three, four and three formations are the most utilitarian formations of all tactical formations. After combining with the players' unball running, the tactical elasticity of this formation style is quite large, and it can be closely connected in terms of width and depth.

But more importantly, this is a formation with super offensive capabilities.

Take Manchester City's current signings, there is no doubt that Gao Han trusts the offensive combination of the frontcourt that Cristiano Ronaldo is on the left, Benzema plays in the middle, Sanchez plays in the right, and Kaka occupies the front midfielder.

These four players were definitely carefully selected by Gao Han, and they were definitely not on a whim or blindly pursuing superstars.

Although Cristiano Ronaldo is the left winger, he is already the sharpest scorer in European football. The threat on the left is quite amazing. It can even be said that he can't defend himself. Whether he breaks through with the ball or scores in person, he can be regarded as the top European player.

Benzema is a forward, fast, fine feet, excellent physical fitness, and has comprehensive features, and excellent left and right feet and headers. This allows him to play many roles in the frontcourt, such as holding the ball on his back, competing for the first landing point, or pulling to the side, creating opportunities for his teammates afterwards, etc.

As for Sanchez, he is the best wing assaulter in Serie A. Gao Han uses him obviously for the threat of attacking the wing.

If these four players form a frontcourt offensive combination, as long as Gao Han combines well, the offensive methods will be very rich and diverse, which will definitely make the opponent unable to defend.

David Silva and Modric in the midfield are both players who are very good at organizing passes and assists. Xavi Alonso is one of the top midfielders in football today. These three players must play the main players. If the three players form a midfielder, the ability to create opportunities and the promotion of the ball is not a problem at all. On the contrary, defense may be a big hidden danger.

But when I think of this, Brian Kidd felt strange again.

What are Javi Martinez and Mascherano doing?

Both players spent a lot of money and had no reason to buy them as substitutes.

Is it to prepare for both back-middles?

But when Brian Kidd threw out his doubts, Gao Han laughed.

"You're wrong, Brian."

I was wrong?

Brian Kidd was even more puzzled.

"Harvey Martinez is a player I admire early on, but I always think that he shouldn't be in the midfield because his development in the midfield will be limited, but if he is on the back line, he will become the commander of the back line and become a free agent like Summer and Beckenbauer."

"He has excellent ability to drive forward, excellent passing ability, strong reading game ability, excellent running ability, and fierce pressing and oppression. I think he should appear in the back line."

Everyone present was a little surprised. They didn't expect Gao Han would value a young midfielder at Athletic Bilbao so much. That Harvey Martinez is really as strong as Gao Han said?

Or, does he really have the potential to be a player like Summer and Beckenbauer?

But Gao Han obviously does not intend to continue to investigate this issue because he has his own set of ideas. He firmly believes that his sharp eyes will never be wrong in looking at people. Harvey Martinez is definitely capable of becoming the defensive commander of his team.

Of course, the premise is that he must be able to achieve his level.

"My idea is very simple. The team's offense starts from the back line. The players in the back line and midfield have excellent ball-taking and ball-taking ability to ensure the team's passing and control in the middle and back court. Even if the opponent wants to force it, we are not afraid."

In the frontcourt, superstars such as Cristiano Ronaldo and Kaka are blocking it. Even if the opponent wants to force it, he will not be able to invest much force. With Gao Han's current lineup configuration, it is unlikely that a team can grab Manchester City's possession.

"Among the three central defenders, the man in the middle must pay attention to tactics and be able to accurately find the right position at any time, command the defense line to move up and down, left and right, and the two central defenders on the left and right must be fast, have excellent ability to grab the upper and lower, offensive, and even play the role of the team's fullback if necessary."

"Our midfielder must be both offensive and defensive. We must not only organize, pass and control, but also intercept and compress. We can form a barrier during defense, and can give full play to the advantages of organizational pass and control during offense, and even if necessary, we must support the front-court offense."

According to the position map drawn by Gao Han, his midfield is a diamond-shaped position, without a wing-forward role. Xavi Alonso drags behind and Kaka breaks in front, which is basically no suspense. As for the two central characters, it should be David Silva and Modric.

These two players have more flexible positions and can even be pulled to the wing, which can be said to be the team's offensive dual core.

With the midfielder's backfield players firmly grasping the ball, the four players in the frontcourt should make full use of various methods such as pulling, retracing, inserting, crossing positions, and attacking the opponent's penalty area in turn to create a threat.

Everyone was surprised after listening to Gao Han's analysis.

Because according to Gao Han, Manchester City's pass control advantage will be more obvious, and there will be more firepower points when attacking. No matter what kind of opponent you face, you can play a refreshing offensive football.

But there are no perfect tactics in this world, and there are no perfect players.

The three, four, and three formations adopted by Gao Han are indeed trying to change, and they are very advanced, but the question is whether the players can execute in place? Is there really no problem with the defense?

This is an answer that is definitely impossible in a short period of time, because it is necessary to test the game, especially in the real Premier League actual battle, and let famous coaches such as Ferguson, Wenger and Benitez come and try it out, and then find out the loopholes and flaws of this game.

But one thing is very certain for everyone present.

That is, Gao Han coaches Manchester City not for money.

Because if he is just for money, he can use a more relaxed and comfortable, safer and safer way to use the tactical style he is accustomed to and good at, with Manchester City's financial resources and Gao Han's attractiveness, he can definitely create an outstanding team and defeat all opponents.

But he didn't do that.
