A special early game.

Round 34 of the Eredivisie League.

Willem II vs Ajax.

At present, Feyenoord has won the Eredivisie.

So the last league has no meaning for the entire Eredivisie league.

It's just that for Ajax, there are still 10 days until the Europa League final, so Bosch will still send out the main lineup for this game.

After all, not playing for a long time will also have an impact on the player's condition.

In this game, Lin Kedi was also selected into the squad and traveled with the team to the away game.

Lin Kedi was very excited to be selected into the squad for the first time.

Willem II's home stadium is the Willem II Stadium, which can accommodate 14,700 people.

Although this capacity is relatively small in the top leagues, Lin Kedi is still shocked, because of all the stadiums Lin Kedi has been to before, the largest only has a few thousand seats.

As for the experience of watching the game live and the feeling of being on the bench, it is still different.

The roster for this game is also out.

The goalkeeper is Onana.

The defense line from left to right is Riedewald, De Ligt, Sanchez and Tate.

The three midfielders are De Jong, Van de Beek and Klassen.

The three forwards are Kluivert, Dolberg and Neres.

Lin Kedi was sitting on the bench, with Ziyech sitting next to him.

Ziyech is not available today. Lin Kedi is a little curious. He has watched a lot of first-team game highlights in the past two days, and Ziyech can be said to be the main player.

But today I actually just stayed on the sidelines.

The only reason Lin Kedi can think of is rotation?

However, after the game started, Lin Kedi ignored Ziyech and began to look at the situation on the court seriously.

Today's opponent Willem II plays a 442 formation.

Lin Kedi studied William II's lineup.

Among the 11 people, the one with the highest net worth is center Fran Sol, who is worth 1 million.

None of the remaining 10 players has a value of more than 900,000.

In contrast, none of the 11 Ajax players are worth less than 5 million euros.

In comparison, Ajax is indeed a giant team.

After the game started, William II kicked off the first half.

When they faced Ajax, they didn't play cautiously enough, but just pressed forward and started attacking.

Link thought to himself, if the home team presses so high, Ajax will soon counterattack.

And the facts did develop as Lin Kedi suspected.

In the 10th minute of the first half, De Jong successfully stole the ball in the middle and sent a long pass directly to Dolberg in the frontcourt.

Dolberg headed the ball and passed it to Kluivert on the left. Kluivert broke through with the ball and cut inside.

Pretend to shoot.

He made a fake move and then volleyed, but he didn't hold it down and the ball went high.

I did not seize this good opportunity.

In the following time, although William II still wanted to press forward, he was still defeated in the face of absolute strength and retreated completely.

In the 38th minute, Kluivert from the left broke through the sideline and passed in. Dolberg, who was at the top of the arc in the center penalty area, stopped the ball on his chest and scored the ball.

1 to 0.

After the goal, all the players on the bench stood up, applauded and applauded in the direction of the stadium.

Lin Kedi naturally followed the crowd and stood up to applaud.

In the next 44 minutes, Dolberg returned the favor and assisted Kluivert with a through ball.

This pass is in a very good position.

Kluivert also got the ball, but when he moved to the right, his feet slipped and the ball was destroyed by a big kick from Willem II's centre-back.

In the second half, Ajax continued to press forward.

In the 56th minute, Dolberg received a cross in the middle. His chest stopped and he wanted to stop with his feet, but the stop was too big. Then he wanted to rush up and get the ball again, but within two or three steps, he unexpectedly

I couldn’t catch up either.

"Poor instantaneous burst, slow start, poor footwork."

In addition, having watched Dolberg's training and his game videos before, Lin Kedi has already seen the weaknesses of Dolberg's technique.

In terms of foot skills, Dolberg is really poor. This has nothing to do with his height of 1.87 meters. Ibrahimovic is as tall as he can embroider with his feet.

But Dolberg, a striker who also belongs to Northern Europe, cannot do it.

Moreover, there is another point: his back-up ability is really poor.

At this time, Lin Kedi also understood why Boss let the 1.87-meter Dolberg play as a winger in the previous game.

Although he is definitely not fast, he is still good in physical confrontation. It is obvious that he is learning from Allegri's use of Mandzukic.

Let a strong high center forward play as a winger and use his physical fitness to fight against the full backs.

Misplaced competition.

If Dolberg plays center, many of his shortcomings will be exposed.

The center can be said to be the most demanding position for players on the football field.

Here, you will receive multiple pressures from the front, rear, left, and right.

If you are on the wing, you generally only have to consider the pressure on the side in front of you.

Especially the center.

Modern football has officially entered the era of wingers since Robben and Duff started flying together.

It was really hard to imagine a winger becoming the top scorer of a team before.

Therefore, the center assumes more tactical roles.

More needs to be done.

The space that Inzaghi could exist in the past would be much smaller now.

And it’s no wonder that a center like Dolberg, who has rough feet and no back-up ability, is looked down upon by Boss.

Although Bosz has always used him, he is also the main force in Ajax, but in the second half of this season, Bosz began to let him go to the wing. Sometimes it is better to put a midfielder in front of the center position.

.

The main reason is that Ajax has been playing 433. If they change to 442, double centers and two centers together can also cover up some of Dolberg's problems.

However, 433 is already a tradition for Ajax, and it is difficult for an outsider like Boss to change it.

Fans like the 433 formation offense, and club executives also like the tradition of the 433 formation.

Nabosch has no reason to change.

There is no need for Bosz to change the formation for one player.

So Boss transferred Lin Kedi to the first team.

This is really not a reward and appeasement measure.

It was a decision made by Bosch after carefully watching all the game videos of Lin Kedi in the U18 team. Of course, Bosch would not do the job of watching the videos himself. After all, he is also very busy, playing in top European leagues.

Most teams will have a video analyst position in the team.

Ajax is no exception. They also have one. Generally speaking, the main job of this job is to determine which team will play in the next game and the video of that team’s previous games. The video analyst must carefully watch it and then make a decision.

An analysis report is issued.

All the videos of Lin Kedi were also analyzed by Ajax’s video analysts in a 20-page analysis report.
