We agreed to play football together, and you will be the head coach?

Chapter 102: A Zhongyi leads the way, Modric leads the Dark Four Heavenly Kings (Subscribe)
Facing Moratti's covetousness, He Tianqi said frankly: "I am very happy that more people are aware of Zaccardo's strength, but in fact he is better than everyone thinks."

"But compared to Zanetti, Zaccardo still has a lot to improve. At least, Zaccardo should enter the national team first."

"And Palermo will fully support him to join the Italian national team and allow him to participate in relevant competitions. Similarly, Barzagli, Grosso, Luca Toni and Chiellini should also enter the Italian national team."

"Modric and Eduardo should not be missed by the Croatian national team."

"Ribery should undoubtedly take on a big role in the French team. He is a starter-level player."

"Vidic, Arteta, it's the same."

"Toure, Valencia, Ashley Young and Foster all have the potential to grow into international level players."

"We led the team to win in Palermo, get promoted, win the league title, win the Italian Cup, and beat opponents one after another in the UEFA Cup. None of this is a dream!"

He Tianqi rejected the "offer" sent by the boss.

After pointing out Zanetti, no ambitious right-back would go to Inter Milan.

It is not only a question of strength, but also a question of status within the opposing team and so on.

……

Sports Weekly: "The mountains are green but the hair is white! Inter Milan was eliminated in the quarterfinals of the Italian Cup. The reason for the loss was that the opposing players all dyed their hair!"

"Ball News": "He Tianqi invented the 'wash, cut and blow tactic', which caused adverse reactions in China, and many young players followed suit!"

Turin Sports Daily: "Young coaches compete! He Tianqi is more skilled and leads the team to the Italian Cup semi-finals again!"

"Corriere dello Sport": "Van der Meyde had the worst performance of the game, Vieri was injured again, Inter Milan urgently needs to strengthen its forward line!"

Gazzetta dello Sport: "Shock! Inter Milan intends to take back Adriano's other half of the ownership in Parma. Will the new Ronaldo join Inter Milan in the winter window?"

Palermo's elimination of Inter Milan triggered a chain reaction among Inter Milan.

They spent 23.4 million euros to bring Adriano, who had performed brilliantly in Parma over the past year and a half, back to the Meazza.

Considering that this is only the transaction price for Adriano's general ownership, his real value is more than 45 million euros.

It is 10 million more expensive than Beckham, the top signing in the summer transfer window before the start of this season.

Beckham's transfer to Real Madrid was only 35 million euros.

However, the impact of this game is limited to these few days.

But another piece of news derived from this game is much more attractive.

In "Barbara's Column", He Tianqi's idea of ​​"haircut and blow-drying tactics" was introduced in detail, showing the public an off-field tactic that is not dirty.

Prior to this, most off-field tactics were actually unethical, illegal, or even illegal.

For example, giving laxatives to opposing players.

This seriously undermines fair competition in the game.

But He Tianqi made people realize that it is also possible to do things off-site through formal means.

And it won't offend neutral fans.

But it wasn’t the interview that went viral, it was a post Barbara made the following morning: “This was a crazy night!”

It was also accompanied by a photo of her and He Tianqi in the hotel.

The implication is obvious.

Didn’t the English media previously make a big fuss about the scandal between He Tianqi and Monica?

Barbara showed her cards directly this time!

She wants to make some people back down.

Less than two hours later, Monica also updated her status.

The picture is a still from her movie, where she is posing with a pistol.

The caption reads: "Thank you to the staff for cleaning my gun. It was very well cleaned and it was very easy for me to use."

???

Lore!

Compared to Barbara's skirting and guiding, Monica's directness and boldness are far better.

The more Barbara's actions tried to show that there was something going on between her and He Tianqi, the more it proved that nothing had really happened between them.

On the contrary, Monica directly stated that she didn't mind He Tianqi going to play.

Even if something happened between you, Barbara, and He Tianqi, you were just helping me to scout the place in advance. In the end, it will be Monica who will enjoy it!
What is a MILF?
This is a typical mature woman, her thoughts are very mature.

In addition, Monica added a backhand slap, showing off Palermo's home ticket for the first leg of the Italian Cup semi-final.

Meaning she was going to watch Palermo's game again.

Barbara couldn't do that.

Because... in the next Italian Cup semi-final, Palermo's opponent is AC Milan!

Barbara will travel with the team to Sicily.

But it was not because of He Tianqi, but to support the team.

As a senior member of the team, she could no longer express her support for He Tianqi at this time.

Sure enough, Barbara immediately fell silent.

……

After the game with Inter Milan, He Tianqi obtained the skill of [Attacking Goalkeeper].

[Attack Goalkeeper: Player-level skill. The goalkeeper's timely attack is sometimes more important than saving the ball. Improve the goalkeeper's attacking ability]

He Tianqi passed this skill to Handanovic.

He is still young and can be trained to be an attacking goalkeeper.

This is a risky saving style now, but it will become mainstream in the future.

During team training, He Tianqi would also emphasize passing the ball to the team's goalkeepers.

We need to train their footwork skills.

After they have mastered the basic goalkeeping skills, they will also be taught passing skills.

"Foster, what the hell are you kicking?"

On the training ground, He Tianqi was furious.

Foster was a little at a loss, because He Tianqi's request was to let them use their feet more to handle the football. He clearly used his feet, so why was the boss scolding him?

He Tianqi knew at a glance that the Englishman did not fully understand the tactical purpose, and immediately called the players in the team to the tactical room.

He Tianqi: "Letting the goalkeeper use his feet more often does not mean that you have to lure the opponent over when there is room to pass the ball, and then pass the ball, or use fake moves to deceive the opponent. It is meaningless."

"The purpose of letting you pass the ball is to pull! It is to relieve the pressure on the defenders, so that our defenders have the experience to find the passing route and pass the ball to the receiver in the midfield."

“It’s meaningful possession.”

"Foster, you could have passed the ball to Barzagli earlier, but you had to wait until the substitute striker rushed in front of you before you kicked the ball."

"In the end, was there anyone who could catch your long kick? Didn't we still lose the ball?"

"And the opponent almost blocked your long pass by jumping up."

"Think! Do you understand?"

"Let the football flow. No one has the right to occupy the football for a long time. This is selfish and is not allowed."

"If you don't know what to do, keep passing the ball to the players you think are safe, to Modric, to Arteta... understand?"

“It’s the same with the centre-backs and midfielders.”

This lecture had a great impact on Guardiola.

He has played football all his life and knows how some players play very well.

Especially in England, some players always do meaningless things in order to attract attention.

The stupidest thing is that you are clearly playing in the central defender position where you cannot afford to make mistakes, but you insist on stopping the ball, directing your teammates, and then attracting the opposing forward. As a result, when the forward really comes up, you can't pass the ball, and you can only kick the ball away or give it to your teammates.

Stupid stupid behavior!
Some talented fast wingers also have this shortcoming.

The difference between allowing them to become explosive points and attackers on the wing and allowing them to show off their skills meaninglessly on the wing is just a moment.

But the results were completely different.

It is difficult for young players to distinguish this difference, or to realize it.

But the head coach can tell the difference and should intervene and coach.

Cristiano Ronaldo, the Portuguese player who joined Manchester United this season, has a similar problem, but Ferguson has discovered it and is polishing him.

Ribery did not have this problem because He Tianqi paid great attention to conveying the concept of "dribbling purpose" from the very beginning.

Your breakthroughs and technical moves must have a definite purpose, otherwise don't do them lightly.

Talent should not be wasted.

Dribbling is not unlimited.

The human body has durability. If you don't cherish it and use it in excess, then when you really need it, it may leave you.

At present, the player who does the best in "playing football with purpose" in Palermo is actually Modric.

He knows exactly why he touches and passes the ball.

He has a high error rate with his forward passes, but when they are successful, they can create chances.

He also passes back a lot, but his passes are all safe.

When it comes to dangerous balls or dirty balls, he will take the initiative to look for Arteta and will not harm the defense line at will.

Forwards such as Eduardo and Luca Toni will not have too much ball possession. The former is a pure finisher, and the latter is a finisher + fulcrum. They all have clear tasks, so the more they play, the better.

The names of Vidic, Barzagli and Zaccardo are also clear at the moment.

Grosso's tactical task was relatively complicated, and He Tianqi gave him a lot of offensive participation rights, but he did a good job.

Ashley Young and Valencia are not very smart, but He Tianqi adapted to the situation and gave them simple tactical arrangements, focusing on running as fast as they could.

Just Foster can't understand.

Yaya Toure and Chiellini are playing very well at this stage, but their playing style will actually become more complicated in the future. Whether they can keep up with the team depends on their future growth.

For example, Chiellini will have to take on a lot of offensive tasks in the future. It is not difficult to be Chiellini, but it is difficult to be "Chiellini + Guardiola".

The same goes for Toure.

The main task now is still mopping up and occasional advancement.

Combined with the tasks of running forward, grabbing points, fighting for the ball, shifting the attack route, etc., he may not be able to do it.

At least it's difficult to do in a short period of time.

Therefore, the training of these players must be carried out step by step.

It is not possible to just cram education all at once.

Finally, Arteta has played very well this season. He is a relatively mature player, but he lacks an environment that allows him to integrate everything.

And He Tianqi provided him with such an environment.

But since the winter break, there have been some small changes in Arteta.

His offensive aggressiveness has increased.

More sensitive to data.

The willingness to shoot and the number of kicks have visibly increased.

It is true that He Tianqi requires his midfielders and even the backcourt to have the ability to shoot from long range.

But…Arteta was a bit too much.

This was beyond He Tianqi's tactical regulations.

He Tianqi asked Guardiola to inquire and found out that Arteta had met with his friends several times after returning to Spain.

There is his teammate from Antiguoco's youth training period, Xabi Alonso.

Alonso was called upon to help Real Sociedad avoid relegation last season.

He led the team to win the La Liga runner-up last season and became a popular star.

This season, they performed well in the Champions League group stage with Real Sociedad and reached the round of 16.

Spanish media said that Real Madrid, Liverpool, Barcelona, ​​Bayern, Manchester United and several Serie A teams all want to sign Alonso.

In addition, Arteta also reunited with his roommates from the Barcelona period.

Motta, Iniesta, Xavi, Pepe Reina, Puyol, Valdes and so on.

Without exception, these people have become the main players of Barcelona.

Reina is Villarreal's main goalkeeper.

Although Motta has not played many games due to injuries, he is positioned as a core player by the team and the head coach values ​​him very much.

Compared to these childhood friends and classmates, Arteta used to be much inferior.

But this season, with Palermo remaining unbeaten in Serie B and having reached the third round of the UEFA Cup, Arteta can finally hold his head up high.

However, once inferiority complex arises, it needs to be compensated with more things.

Just being right isn't enough to cure Arteta.

He began to desire to get better statistics, go to a real giant club, break through in the Champions League, and compete for the championship in the top league!
"This is also a miserable child." After understanding the whole story, He Tianqi did not criticize Arteta.

This inferiority complex, vanity and competitive consciousness among teenagers is very common and is one of the motivations for many people to work hard.

"Do you want me to talk to Arteta?" After all, Guardiola is a senior of Barcelona, ​​and many children who came out of La Masia regard him as an idol.

"What should I say? Ask him to reduce the number of shots?" He Tianqi shook his head. "At this age, the more you talk, the more rebellious he becomes. Even if he listens now, he won't do what you say later."

"Heart disease still needs heart medicine."

"We will give him what he lacks!"

Guardiola was shocked.

On the one hand, he admired He Tianqi's spirit of caring for the players.

Such a head coach is really a noble person in Arteta's life.

So rare!

So virtuous.

But on the other hand, Guardiola also lamented that He Tianqi was still too young and underestimated the greed of human nature.

If you do it for Arteta's own good, give him a better environment to play in, arrange special offensive tactics for him and let him shine more, but will he stay in Palermo?
Will not!
This will only accelerate Arteta's return to Barcelona's arms.

Guardiola knows La Masia's teaching methods too well.

Some friends hate official guidance and positive energy education.

But is there no such guidance in Europe?

They often carry out guidance in the name of faith, but the essence is the same.

Therefore, the youth training teams of major European clubs often have a "homesickness complex". After achieving success, they are always eager to return to the place where their dreams began.

Barcelona does this particularly well because they have some other buffs.

If He Tianqi puts some pressure on Arteta, perhaps this midfield star will leave Palermo in the next two or three years.

But now He Tianqi is cutting his own flesh to feed the eagle, and Arteta might fly away at the end of this season!

After Guardiola left, He Tianqi opened the list of young players' market values ​​published by Transfermarkt.

He wouldn't even look at anything above 1 million Euros last year.

He didn’t look at anything above 3 million euros last year.

Now he has even turned to the page of 10 million euros.

Tazi, you have to do better!

Try to make a name for yourself this season. My and Palermo’s consumption upgrade depends on you!
……

On February 2004, 2, Palermo defeated Piacenza and won five consecutive league games.

He Tianqi obtains the skill [Diving to the Top]

[Diving Heading: A player-level skill. A very entertaining heading technique that improves the player's heading ability and makes it less likely to get injured when doing a diving move]

After this period of training, Eduardo and Arteta successfully advanced to the "top five league level" stars.

As their abilities improve, each of them also gains an additional skill bar.

In addition, Ribery completed the learning of [Basic Curve Ball], and the skill was returned to He Tianqi, and an extra skill column was added. However, He Tianqi hesitated again and again, and finally gave [Diving Diving] to Eduardo instead of Ribery.

Because this skill is not particularly suitable for Ribery, it cannot play a big role.

If better skills come out later and Ribery doesn't have the skill bar, it would be a waste of time.

So Eduardo currently has three skills: [Acrobatic Shot], [Battery], and [Diving Heading].

Not a single expressive “hard skill”.

Coupled with his mysterious positioning and reaction at the last minute, if he changes coaches, teams, or tactics that are not tailored for him, he is likely to be lost in the crowd.

Such players can easily be classified as counterfeits or players with good luck in later reviews.

In addition, He Tianqi also gave Arteta the [Basic Curve Ball] dropped by Ribery, so Arteta's skills are also full - [Basic Through Pass], [Pull the Ball and Turn], [Assassin 3], and [Basic Curve Ball].

One more pair of Mercurial sneakers than Eduardo.

The treatment is second only to Modric, Ribery and Luca Toni.

At the same time, He Tianqi's behavior of modifying tactics for Arteta also moved Arteta very much.

He swore in front of He Tianqi that he would perform well and not let He Tianqi down.

But He Tianqi could see a small label in Arteta’s status bar - [Returning home in glory, returning to Barcelona]!
He Tianqi couldn't help but sigh, Xiaofa, your savior is here!

With Arteta's example, you will have a law to follow in the future.

Is there any loyalty and righteousness here?

……

February 5th arrived in the blink of an eye.

The Rossoneri arrive in Sicily.

They came prepared this time and had prepared some banners and posters in advance.

The poster shows four people running away under the AC Milan team logo.

Their names are written on it - Mo Bu Ting, Wa Bu She, Pei Bu Jin, Yang Bu Ke!

These are Palermo’s famous Four Dark Kings!

With Palermo's improved performance this season and the leakage of the team's teaching materials, some abstract players in their team began to be discovered by everyone, bringing a lot of joy to everyone.

These teaching materials were made by He Tianqi himself and are a collection of highlights of some players.

For example, there are many shots of Modric passing the ball and shooting without stopping. Of course, He Tianqi chose the shots of him failing to pass or shoot.

Find problems, solve them, and make progress through practice.

This is the only way to take Modric's rocket pass and shot further.

But in the eyes of the public, Modric's non-stop passing is simply a crime!

This is what "Mo Bu Ding" means.

Valencia's "no-shot collection" is Valencia's "no-shot collection".

There were many good shooting opportunities, but Valencia would rather put the ball into the opponent's goalkeeper's hands than try to shoot.

If Pedro doesn't make the cut, it will be the new winter signing Pedro.

He was still trying to integrate into the team and played a few games as a substitute, with no sense of presence at all.

His passing and shooting choices were still quite irrational, and it was obvious that he hoped to win the trust of He Tianqi through data, which reflected the harsh environment he was in before.

If he can't produce data and results immediately, he will be replaced by someone else.

This is a very cruel thing in professional football.

He Tianqi later talked to Pedro and said that he was not a head coach who only looked at data.

On the contrary, as long as the player performs his assigned tasks well, he will choose that player without hesitation even if he doesn't score a goal in a season.

These images were shown to Pedro by He Tianqi during that conversation.

He also showed Pedro some of Ribery's ball-holding options so that Pedro could learn appropriately.

This communication was very effective, and Pedro's heart gradually calmed down.

But Yang is nothing more than that, no need to say more.

The collection of his failed dribbling attempts was the most tiring for He Tianqi to compile, because there were too many of them.

In order to let Ashley Young know the poorness of his dribbling skills and the weakness of his dribbling thinking, He Tianqi also cut out the dribbling highlights of Manchester United youngster Cristiano Ronaldo.

He also told Ashley Young the original words "Although your dribbling did not bring any help to the team's offense, at least he was able to dribble past opponents", "This is the difference between zero and one! With dribbling past opponents, there are unlimited possibilities. Without dribbling past opponents, you must follow the tactical running and passing I arranged for you"!
However, after that communication, Ashley Young's mind was full of zeros and ones, and he couldn't figure out how He Tianqi discovered it!
He Tianqi: ???

But if you want to talk about the whole thing, after a season of running-in, Palermo fans have also learned some true skills from He Tianqi.

They unfurled a large banner at their home stadium.

A beautiful woman pushed away another beautiful woman and then leaned into the arms of a handsome man.

The handsome guy’s profile picture was photoshopped onto He Tianqi’s.

The beauty in He Tianqi's arms is naturally Monica.

The beauty pushed away by Monica was Barbara.

The banner read: "Sicily beats AC Milan!"

I have to say, this use of symbolism really broke Barbara's heart.

AC Milan players were also very angry.

This is too psychological.

What's the big deal about bullying a girl?
The key point is that these two women are jealous of each other. What does it have to do with our AC Milan players?

So angry!

……

Soon, players from both teams entered the court and the game began.

AC Milan's lineup is:

Inzaghi, Borriello
Kaka, Redondo, Seedorf, Brocchi
Pancaro, Laursen, Costacurta, Cafu

Abbiati
-

Their lineup still has some reservations.

For example, most of the main players such as Shevchenko, Pirlo, Gattuso, Rui Costa, Nesta, etc. did not come to the Frederick II Stadium with the team.

Because AC Milan will compete for the Champions League and the league titles this season.

Although we also want the Italian Cup, we have to make some trade-offs.

In the past three years, AC Milan has reached the semi-finals of the Champions League.

They did the same this year, and in the three years that followed.

Having reached the Champions League semi-finals for seven consecutive years and won the Champions League twice, it is no wonder that they have fans all over the world.

Really strong.

Palermo's starting lineup is:

Ribery, Toni, Eduardo

Arteta, Chiellini, Modric

Grosso, Vidic, Barzagli, Zaccardo

Handanovic

-

At the beginning of the game, both sides were testing each other.

In the 13th minute, Cafu passed Grosso and sent a cross.

Vidic headed the ball away.

In the 19th minute, Redondo made a long pass.

The elegant "Prince of the Bernabeu" has entered the final stage of his career.

With the rise of Pirlo and Gattuso this season, he has become a marginal player.

He will leave AC Milan after the end of this season and announce his retirement in November.

The four talented defensive midfielders of that year, Albertini, Paulo Sasso, Redondo and Guardiola, all came to the end of their careers.

No one expected to see two of the four great talents compete here.

Moreover, both of them have been reduced from main players to substitute players.

boom!
Barzagli blocked Inzaghi, causing Redondo's long pass to fly out of the baseline.

Today he had to concentrate all his attention on keeping a close eye on the fox in the penalty area and not give the other side any chance to perform.

In the 24th minute, Kaka challenged Zaccardo with the ball, but Zaccardo intercepted the ball cleanly.

The Brazilian was stunned.

Because the opponent seemed to be very familiar with his way of playing.

His acceleration of the ball was quite sharp, but the opponent bumped into him directly, preventing him from speeding up and then stealing the ball.

"Yes! Good defense! That's it! Don't let him speed up, his technique is very rough!" He Tianqi gave Zaccardo a thumbs up.

Kaka's head was full of black lines.

Is the opposing head coach... talking about himself?

Rough technique?
How dare he?
I'm a Brazilian player!

After He Tianqi finished speaking, his eyes met Kaka's.

The looks between the two conveyed a lot of information.

Kaka: Can you say it again?
He Tianqi: Hello, brother.

Kaka: I am from Brazil.

He Tianqi: Even if you are from the West, you are still a rough guy.

Kaka: You pissed me off!
He Tianqi: He is anxious, he is anxious, he is anxious!

As the saying goes, lies hurt no one, but the truth is the sharpest knife.

Kaka himself knows whether he is rough or not.

To be honest, it's not rough.

But his kicking style, with its wide and aggressive movements, does look rough.

Only a few people realize this, such as He Tianqi.

But why did He Tianqi speak for Kaka?

Now that we are rivals, of course we should rub salt into the wound!

Inzaghi and Kaka were targeted one after another, and Chiellini focused on taking care of Cafu.

For a moment, AC Milan's attack stalled.

Palermo began to take control of the situation.

In the 28th minute, Barzagli intercepted Borello's pass to Inzaghi and passed it to Grosso in the left front.

Grosso passes it forward to Ribery.

Ribery dribbled the ball forward and challenged Cafu.

He made a series of fake breakthroughs, and although the 34-year-old Cafu was still in great shape, he just couldn't keep up with some small rhythms.

boom!
Ribery made a horizontal pass and gave up forcing Cafu.

Kafu's pupils shrank.

He actually deliberately exposed a flaw, and if Ribery forced his way in, he would most likely be able to destroy the ball.

But I didn't expect Ribery to be so alert.

He is worthy of being a player at the level of the dribbler. Even the dribbler of Serie B is still the dribbler.

Have an innate intuition for breakthroughs.

The ball flies towards Arteta.

"Mikel! Pass the ball! To the back post!" He Tianqi gave instructions from the sidelines.

The moment Ribery passed the ball, He Tianqi saw that Arteta wanted to do it alone.

This kid must stop the ball and then shoot from long range.

But the team actually has a chance to be better.

boom!
Arteta couldn't pretend he didn't hear He Tianqi's voice because it was too loud.

He stopped the ball and then passed it into the penalty area.

At the back point, Eduardo suddenly rushed out from behind Lawson.

The Danish international is 1.90 meters tall and has excellent physical fitness, but he turns too slowly and has a large blind spot behind him.

boom!
Eduardo dived to head the ball with perfect power.

The football went into AC Milan's goal like a cannonball.

"GOAL!"

"One to zero! Palermo broke the deadlock first!"

"Eduardo! The Croatian scored a classic Inzaghi goal!"

"What boosts morale more than scoring a goal is scoring in the way the opponent is best at!"

"How about, AC Milan fans, how about Inzaghi of Palermo?"

On the court, the pink and black jerseys were boiling.

Palermo fans were so happy.

From this moment on, no matter what the game was like, many people remembered the name Eduardo.

Many teams would like to have an Inzaghi-like striker.

This goal stimulated AC Milan and they began to regain their form.

In the 36th minute, Kaka took the initiative to move towards the middle, accelerated the ball and ate up Chiellini.

Chiellini covered a good area, but because of this, he was unable to get to the position immediately.

And Kaka's speed is such that if you can't stop him in his first step, you will never be able to catch up with him.

Barzagli quickly rushed out to fill the position.

Today, Kaka ranks highest in He Tianqi's tactical threat level.

No one knows why He Tianqi attaches so much importance to such a substitute attacking midfielder.

He played well in AC Milan, but he is far from the core level, right?

boom!
Kaka made a through ball.

Inzaghi moved like a rabbit and chased the football.

But Handanovic grabbed the ball before him.

[Attacking goalkeeper]!
Inzaghi frowned.

Handanovic ran to the penalty spot, which squeezed Inzaghi's living space.

The critical attack was so decisive, he must have been specially trained.

Today's Sicily seems to be surrounded by ambushes from all sides.

This is a Hongmen Banquet!
Inzaghi was right.

In recent times, the defense line of Handanovic, Barzali, Vidic and Zacardo has been conducting targeted training with Eduardo.

Make the best use of everything.

(Grosso: Um... is there one person missing from this defense line?)

(Foster: That's me!)

[PS: I caught a cold after traveling so long. I will try to keep the update time stable at 7pm in the future]
