Chapter 10 Change (4000 words)(1/2)
Author: Entering the painting of lovesickness dream
Three consecutive defeats made Sarri feel the pressure.
The performance of the players in these three games made Sarri realize one thing, that is, there is a problem with the team as a whole.
Not only the offensive end, but also the defensive end that I was proud of before has problems.
Take the goal conceded in the last game as an example. There was a problem with the defensive position allocation of the players. If the defense is in place in time, then they can take away three points in this game.
The problems in the defense are not big. As long as they stay focused, they can maintain their level at a high level.
The front line is the problem that urgently needs to be solved right now.
"Ding dong!"
"Fuck!"
Sarri, who has a good temper, saw the email sent by Pedro, and he "complained" without any image.
"Damn doctor, can you predict mistakes with such a professional thing? This is simply shameless!"
"Damn it!"
Tavano's critical knee cruciate ligament tear occurred during a follow-up visit.
What does a torn cruciate ligament mean?
Even Sarri, who is not a doctor, understands the seriousness of the matter.
Moreover, this comprehensive review also forces the Empoli management and coaching staff to think about the next employment arrangements!
"Hey, how did Francesco get this torn ligament?"
The last information we got was just a severe ankle sprain, and now it has turned into a torn ligament. Everyone thinks there is something wrong with this statement.
Due to the uncertainty about the intelligence, Sarri felt that it was better to figure things out. If the new guy is really promoted later, if that guy comes back, this means that it will be fatal to the good system that the team has formed.
of blow.
"Well, his reexamination was at the hospital we cooperate with. I now suspect that he concealed his injuries."
Listening to Pedri's words, Sarri pinched his eyebrows. He now seriously doubted that there was something wrong with Tavano's injury.
"I'll leave this to you. I still need time for the competition."
"Don't worry, you will stay in that position this season, I can guarantee you!"
"call!"
Continuous back-and-forth runs on the training field are also very physically demanding. After the training, Li Feng added a few more sets of back-and-forth runs to himself, which made his breathing become relatively rapid.
"Hey kid, why are you still practicing here? Do you really think you can get the starting position?"
A familiar voice reached the center of the venue.
Li Feng looked up and saw that the person standing on the sidelines was none other than his most direct competitor in Empoli - Mechet Lidze.
"Stealing a position? Sorry, I don't think that position needs to be grabbed."
Li Feng plainly explained his views on this starting center. Judging from the performance in recent games, Li Feng believes that as long as Sarri is not blind, he will change the starting staff sooner or later. As for which position he will start from
"Operation", then wait and see!
"Humph, we'll see!"
As a "little famous" player in the city of Empoli, Mecedrize believes that he is the future in the eyes of the fans. As long as Tavano, who is stepping on him, is sold, then he will be the well-deserved starting center of Empoli.
One choice.
Mechetlidze is very "clear" about his position, and he is indeed a key candidate for the center position in the team.
But with the arrival of Li Feng, Sarri does have more choices.
Although Sarri is not a professional player, he still has his own unique insights into the situation on the field.
At present, Empoli has made it clear that Tavana will continue to be injured for 6 weeks. They are already prepared, and how to get through the most difficult period at the moment is what Sarri needs to consider.
Watching the other person leave, Li Feng thought this person was quite funny.
The competition among professional players is fierce, and Mechet Lizer's behavior will only make Li Feng feel naive.
Especially after he recently complained about his current situation with milet via email, he can calm down, train hard, and strive to gain Sarri's trust as soon as possible.
"It's 17 o'clock, it's time to go to the cafeteria!"
"Do you think Li's physical reserves meet the standards for a starter?"
In the office, Sarri asked trainer Ron.
Ron, who has been in charge of the team's physical training, shook his head.
"It still takes some time. My suggestion is to let him continue to play as a substitute!"
Ron's words made Sarri frown. Such an answer was not what he wanted. The team's forward problem has been very obvious.
If Mechetlidze continues to be used, I am afraid that both sides will receive the most direct impact.
"Li is still young. There is no need to let him play 90 minutes in Serie B so quickly. If you just hope that he can play to change the situation, I suggest giving him 60-75 minutes is enough!"
"60-75 minutes?"
Sally rubbed his chin, his eyes falling on the tactical whiteboard behind Ron.
In Sarri's eyes, since we are preparing for adjustments, we need to be fully prepared!
"Okay, I understand, you go and do your work first!"
After sending Ron out of the office, Sarri turned around and drew tactics on the whiteboard.
After Ron left the head coach's office, he turned and walked towards the team cafeteria. He knew where a child was eating at this time. This was something he had often seen recently.
"I knew you were here!"
Ron came to Li Feng's dining table, he smiled and rubbed Li Feng's head.
Li Feng has recently become familiar with the assistant coach who appeared in front of him.
"Huh? Ron, why are you still here? According to the previous time, you should have gone home by this time!"
Li Feng was eating the chicken breast on the plate, and he was a little curious.
Regarding Li Feng's question, Ron chuckled and did not respond directly, but passed a message to Li Feng.
"The boss has recently been considering promoting you to the starting lineup. I don't need to say more about what to do next, right?"
Promote yourself to the starting lineup?!
Li Feng's eyes widened immediately. The arrival of this moment was expected, but he did not expect it to come so suddenly.
"I will just tell you this news. Next, you must improve your physical fitness, otherwise you will just wait to be on the bench!"
"Don't worry about this!"
"In the 25th round of Serie B, Empoli plays at home against Carpi who comes to challenge."
"The opponent is not strong, but if they want to defeat them, Empoli still need to make adjustments. They are not the underdogs of Serie B!"
In Wright's voice, the game has begun.
Empoli, playing at home, did not get the first wave of offensive possessions, which means they need to prioritize defense.
In the 23rd minute of the game, Carpi's Acosti dunked on Pusciarelli and then directly tore open Empoli's defense with a direct pass.
After receiving the pass, DiGaudio cut inside and made an arc. In the end, the ball hit the post and flew out of the baseline.
Carpi's offense was the first to threaten Empoli's goal.
This situation also made the home fans watching the game a little dissatisfied.
The performance in recent games has disappointed many Empoli fans.
But their rationality is still there, and they know very well that the current problem Empoli needs to solve is the players, especially the forwards.
Mechetlidze received a lot of opportunities, but every opportunity was ultimately wasted by him. It would be damned if such a low conversion rate could gain the trust of the management!
The 42nd minute of the game.
This time Empoli, who had been suppressed for a long time, got the ball back.
It was Empoli's midfielder Eramo who drove the ball forward. He did not advance very fast, but it gave people a feeling of reassurance.
In the little time left in the first half, Empoli needs to cooperate as soon as possible to complete the goal!
Following Valdi Fiore's pass, Li Feng's idea was that he would naturally pass the ball through.
Noticing that Mechetlidze was passing the ball, he stepped forward vigorously. He stretched out his hand and adjusted his pace with his feet.
And this push also allowed Carpi to get a well-positioned set piece.
"In the 47th minute of the game, Carpi received a free kick on the edge of the penalty area."
For Empoli, this is the most crucial thing. If they can avoid such a shot, then they will make a good profit.
"Hmm?! Red card? Is this handball?"
