Two Hundred and Eighty Third, the Conspirator Is Deep
Latest URL: I still remember that before the match against Roma last season, Gao Shen once said when referring to Perotta that the head coach often employs a strong inertia.
Sometimes you may not really understand the role of the players, but use it, win, get used to it, and continue.
This kind of situation is actually very common, and it is even a kind of tacit understanding, that is, don't adjust when the team wins consecutively. But Spalletti sometimes doesn't think so,
In the first seven rounds of Serie A, Rome has a clear dividing line.
In the three rounds, Roma won three consecutive victories without conceding a goal, but in the next three rounds, Roma scored five goals, but also conceded eight goals. This actually proves that the defense of the Red Wolves can be shown. problem.
In the UEFA Champions League, Roma scored two goals and conceded one goal in the first two rounds, winning one and losing one. They defeated Dynamo Kyiv 2-0 at home and lost 1-0 away to Manchester United.
Why is this so?
It is not difficult to find out by studying the starting lineup of Roma in these games. In fact, in the first two rounds with the most stable defensive performance, the main central defenders were veteran Panucci and Mex, which made Roma's defense impenetrable.
But then, Brazilian defenders Juan and Ferrari became the new favorites of Spalletti, and Panucci became a substitute.
The main reason is that these two short central defenders are more flexible and more in line with Rome's wolf pack tactics.
In contrast, Panucci is too old, plus a Mex that Spalletti is not satisfied with, which makes the Roma coach feel that after the two central defenders partner, Roma's backcourt mobility will be very good. into a problem. .
As early as the beginning of Spalletti's coaching in Rome, Mex once lost his main position. Spalletti put more emphasis on Kufuor, who was transferred from Bayern, but later with Kufuor's injury, Mex It was only gradually gaining a foothold.
Last season, Spalletti was more inclined to use Qiwu and Mex as a partner, and the defense was led by Qiwu. This is also Qiwu's best season, and at a high price of 16 million euros, Transferred to Inter Milan. Therefore, Spalletti is not willing to use the combination of Panucci and Mex, but wants to replace Qi Wu with Juan or Ferrari, two central defenders who are similar in size to Qi Wu. Wu's position, partnered with Mex.
But who would have thought that in the next few rounds of the game, there would be a big problem with Roma's defense, almost becoming a colander.
But what is interesting is that in the seventh round away game against Parma, Spalletti let Panucci start on the right side, Ferrari and Juan partnered as central defenders, and Roma once again kept a clean sheet.
It has to be said,
It is really elusive.
Panucci performed well this season. During Materazzi's injury, the Italian national team coach Donadoni still trusted him, and he is a versatile player who can play as a central defender. "Lucas analyzed.
Before Cannavaro Jr. was selected for the national team, the reason why he was not able to partner with Cannavaro the Great and staged a brotherly legend was more or less influenced by Panucci. After all, the Roman defender performed so well at the time
"But the better he does in the national team, the more likely it will affect his position at the club, after all, the age is there, and his characteristics have never been appreciated by Spalletti."
Speaking of this, Lucas believes that Roma's defense will be an important breakthrough point in the game. At the same time, he also mentioned another weakness, which is the set-piece defense.
"The second goal against Juventus, the first goal against Fiorentina, one was a penalty kick and the other was a corner kick. We can find that Roma's set-piece defense still has certain problems, and this will also be a breakthrough point.
"According to the information returned by the scouts, Roma has indeed not practiced set-pieces for a long time." After Lucas's analysis, the assistant coach Carlo also responded,
He agrees that Lucas's analysis has not been practiced for a long time, so he must be unfamiliar, especially some cooperative routines and the feeling of free throws.
"I think the current Spalletti is a bit like Zeman, who only cares about offense but not defense, so Roma's offense is very sharp now, but defense is very problematic.
Carlo's words are actually some summaries of Lucas' analysis.
Gao Shen has been spinning the ballpoint pen, and when he heard this silently, he suddenly stopped, and said with a smile: "So, we can only take defense, and attacking Rome is too risky and not worthwhile."
Carlo and the others all smiled.
In fact, Gao Shen is not as principled as the outside world imagines. If you have to say that he is very principled, then Gao Shen's principle is to win.
Therefore, as long as he can win, he doesn't even mind playing the iron bucket formation.
Of course, now, there are probably not many teams in European football that can force Naples to play an iron barrel.
At least not in Serie A.
But the defensive counterattack can still be used.
"I suggest that you stimulate Spalletti again." Lucas gave Gao Shen a knowing wink, as if trying to fool him, and gave Spalletti some eye drops.
Gao Shen was a little depressed, "You guys are trying to force me to be bad!"
Everyone laughed.
Are you starting to play innocent?
"You don't need to learn, it's already very bad!" Lucas laughed.
"I think I'm a beautiful boy full of sunshine in my heart, but I was forced to become a conspirator by you. How can I ask for a wife like this?" Gao Shen said "despair".
Everyone was joking, and quickly discussed the targeted tactics and training arrangements. Gao Shen also gave some thoughts on the overall situation of the game, but in the next few days he will have to polish it carefully, especially considering the national team. The impact of the team game on both sides.
At the end of the discussion, Lucas suddenly mentioned another matter to Gao Shen.
"David... came to practice again today."
After hearing this, everyone immediately looked at Gao Shen.
After playing Inter Milan, except for the training the next morning, Gao Shen gave the team a day off, which was the afternoon of the next day and the morning of the next day, but in these two days, David Luiz came over to practice by himself.
In fact, David Luiz did a good job in recovery training the next morning.
The Brazilian is optimistic by nature and very popular in the dressing room, but the mistake against Inter Milan was indeed tragic.
Everyone knows that Gao Shen wanted to take revenge at Inter Milan's Meazza Stadium, but was messed up by David Luiz, especially after he made a big fuss in the locker room, no one dared to stand up for David Luiz. Open your mouth.
Lucas is Gao Shen's confidant, and he didn't open his mouth until now.
You really frightened him by being so angry. "Lucas smiled wryly.
Gao Shen snorted twice, and asked back, "Can he change it?"
Lucas was a little speechless, who can guarantee this?
David Luiz has this kind of character. He is good because he is really positive and optimistic, but if he is bad, he is really reckless and often makes some low-level mistakes.
In fact, the reason why the coaching staff didn't open their mouths was because they felt that it might not be a good thing to take this opportunity to grind this kid and polish his character. After all, his frizzy and reckless personality was the biggest obstacle for him to become a better central defender. .
Everyone can see that Gao Shen is actually training him deliberately.
"Stay with him for a while, this kid is hot for three minutes, I think he can last for a few days!" Gao Shen thought for a while and said.
"Lorenzo, tell the team doctor to pay attention to his body, and don't get injured."
After hearing this, Buenaventura nodded, "Don't worry, I'll talk to him later."
Gao Shen sighed deeply, shook his head and said: "Mo Dan, this kid doesn't even make people worry about working hard!"
Everyone was amused.
In fact, Gao Shen really cared about David Lewis.
Not only him, everyone in Naples likes this kid, coupled with his talent and potential, it is really hard to put it down.
However, his recklessness was indeed a headache.
All in all, annoying!
In the following period of time, on the one hand, Gao Shen paid close attention to the movement of the national team's game, especially the situation of the international players, and on the other hand, he led the team to prepare for the game, especially the match arrangement against Rome.
The coaching staff also began to arrange more targeted training programs for Rome.
During this period of time, David Luiz has been working very hard in training, even the most hardworking player in the team, he has completed all the arrangements of the coaching staff meticulously,
But he also lost the old smile on his face.
It seems that he is a player who made a mistake and wants to make up for it, and wants to please the coach.
But unfortunately, Gao Shen never gave him a good look, and kept tormenting him like this.
After the training session every day, David Luiz will take the initiative to stay for additional training.
Or practice long passes, or practice free kicks, or go to the gym for strength training...
Everyone can see that he is really working hard.
Lucas, Carlo, Buenaventura and others all told Gao Shen about this matter one after another, but Gao Shen never took the initiative to talk to him, but continued to suffer him.
It's like boiling an eagle. If you want to get rid of its wildness and ferocity, you have to boil it hard. Only when it can't bear it can it be considered tamed.
Gao Shen also wants to tame David Louis now.
If it is said that a draw against Inter Milan can be exchanged for the change of David Luiz and usher in a world-class central defender for Naples, Gao Shen thinks it is a good deal.
Even, great value!
So Gao Shen tortured him like this.
Until the second week of the national team competition, David Luiz finally couldn't bear it by himself.
After one day's training session, the players all left. When Gao Shen was about to leave the Konami training center, David Louis suddenly appeared and stopped Gao Shen.
"Boss...David Louis mustered up his courage, looked directly at Gao Shen Gaoshen and was taken aback, but he was not afraid, because he didn't think that David Louis would beat him.
Although the Brazilian looks a bit fierce at this moment.
But this level of self-confidence is still profound.
"What's wrong?" Gao Shen asked coldly.
David Louis took a deep breath and said harshly, "I want to treat you to dinner, and I have something to tell you."
Looking at his appearance, Gao Shen was secretly happy in his heart, but on the surface he remained calm.
The eagle finally came out!
