Give the team's "stars" more room to play, actually there are two benefits. ☆→

For stars, using more personal abilities and cooperating with the team's overall offense will naturally make the team perform better overall. If the frontcourt stars have more space to play, the backcourt players will naturally reduce some space, which is beneficial in defense. If the backcourt players have less space to play, the defensive pressure will also be much smaller.

The front and backcourt mentioned here does not only refer to offense and defense, but also ‘players involved in the offense’ and ‘players responsible for the defense’. A frontcourt player can participate in the offense or participate in the defense. The change of identity depends on the game situation and temporary response.

In short, Wansheng’s next job is to adjust the team’s formation so that the stars can have more room to play.

This work is quite complicated.

It sounds like it's just a adjustment to the formation, but tactics are a complicated matter. The running of the players of the court, temporary changes and response, the overall grasp of the game, etc., all of them need to be considered carefully. How to adjust it in detail will be effective, and it is not easy to think of it.

Fortunately, this period is the national team match day, and the team has ten days off. Only Van der Fate and Karachi are national team players in Derby County. However, just after the European Cup, Van der Fate did not get the call from the Netherlands, and Karachi is Australia's second goalkeeper. There are no major events, and it doesn't matter whether they go to the national team or not. So during this period, Derby County had a complete plastic surgery, and Wan Sheng began to let the team experiment with one formation after another.

In fact, Wansheng still has a certain idea.

The star is not just a name, but a player with excellent personal abilities. The only players with strong offensive abilities in the Derby County frontcourt are those players - Van der Fate, Morris, Ribery, Cruivet and Ivan Krew. These five players have strong offensive abilities and basically have no big weaknesses. But Bolton Reit has also had good abilities. But his height limits his technical improvement, while Ian Taylor is too old and has declined rapidly in all abilities. Ottoman and Fedinnan are too focused on defense, so if you really want to talk about the possibility of outstanding performance in offense, there are only these five players in the team.

Among the five players, Van der Fate, Morris and Ribery are more capable.

Van der Fate's strength is reflected in passing, shooting and personal dribbling ability. His evaluation of these three abilities is gorgeous; Ribery is very fast, and his dribbling and passing ability are also very good. His shooting is worse than that; Morris is an all-round player, and his comprehensive attributes are almost all over 80. 80. Although it is not very high, thinking about all abilities in football have reached an excellent level. Such a team is very rare. Of course, Morris' current strength is inseparable from anything from the football training master system. His ability plus the bonus of several coaching skills. In the game, Morris can perform at all is not inferior to Van der Fate, and in defense, he is much better than Van der Fate.

In comparison, Ivan Krue is a little worse. His ability is lower than that of Morris, but his set-piece ability has reached 95, and with all-round ability, he can also perform very well in the game.

Another player is Cruivet, who signs in for free in the summer.

Cruivit is a player who gave Wan Sheng a headache. This Dutch star is only 28 years old, but his body has been seriously damaged, which has led to some deviations in physical fitness and confrontation. However, Cruivit's technical ability is very excellent, and he can even compare with Van der Fatt. So far, Wan Sheng has not allowed Cruivit to play. He is considering letting Cruivit exercise for a while and finding a chance to play as a substitute. As long as he is in good shape, Wan Sheng is still looking forward to Cruivit's performance. However, everything depends on his mental state. With ability and good mental state, Cruivit should still perform well. He signed Cruivit at that time and wanted him to become a qualified substitute in the frontcourt and also increase the depth of the bench. After all, the team faces a lot of seasonal games, and the depth of the bench is naturally very important.

All five players can look forward to it, but it is not easy to adjust the lineup in a targeted manner.

After several days of tactical exercises, Wan Sheng still found a suitable formation - 4321. This formation is much better than the previous 442. For example, Van der Fatt and Morris' balanced position can perform much better than the previous two, one after the other. The wing players retreated a little, which can also give them more room for performance. The only problem is defense.

4321, there is no diamond position in the midfield. It seems that the formation has retreated a little, but in fact, the pressure on defense has become heavier, especially the back midfield position in the middle of the ‘3’, which has become a very important connection point for the entire team in the front and back courts. Players in this position have to shoulder the burden of defense and offense and defense conversion. Perhaps they do not need to be too strong, but they must have comprehensive abilities, and their defensive abilities must be very good, and their mentality must also be very good.

This requirement is a bit high.

Morris is a good choice, but Wan Sheng prefers to put Morris' position higher, and Morris's defensive ability is not very outstanding. Wan Sheng focuses on other players - Peter Kennedy, Ottoman, and Fedinnan.

If the formation is changed, the three will face competition in one position. Of course, Fedinnan and Ottoman can play as central defenders and do a good job in the wing defense, but their best position is still the midfielder, and this position is the core point of the right position. Wan Sheng naturally cannot make it easy, so he decided to let the three people try each in the official game.

It is dangerous to experiment with tactics in the official game, but now it is only the beginning of the season, and Derby County is still losing. Wan Sheng always believes that as the season progresses, the team's performance will become better and better, and their performance will naturally become better and better.

......

On September 10, Derby County will host Tottenham Hotspur at home.

After defeating Arsenal two times, Tottenham fans almost regarded Wansheng as their best friend, so before the game started, the atmosphere between the two sides was very harmonious. Although many media talked about Derby County eliminating Tottenham in the FA Cup last season, Tottenham fans did not have any hostility, and Derby County fans were even more so. They were the winners. Naturally, there would be no hostility against Tottenham.

The atmosphere between the two sides was still very harmonious.

Tottenham Hotspur has strengthened its strength in the summer. Although they sold forward Postigga, they added Simon Davis, Mendes, Davenport and other players, and introduced 7 million pounds of heavyweight star Nebert and England's substitute goalkeeper Robinson. Overall, Tottenham Hotspur's strength has increased a lot.

The media still has high expectations for Tottenham Hotspur. Considering that Tottenham Hotspur itself has a terrible front line and attack power, once the new coach Santini can adjust the team's defense, it is not out of reach to Tottenham's strength in Gascoin and the Leinker era.

Tottenham Hotspur performed well in the first three rounds, and they also won two draws. However, the goal difference gap was behind Derby County, and their opponents also had strong teams like Liverpool, so their results were no worse than Derby County.

Anyway, this is an opponent that needs to be dealt with seriously.

But Wan Sheng still chose to experiment with the new formation in the game.

The new formation has only been training for one week, and the team is not very skilled, but with the tactical idea of ​​‘os-fast’, the formation is actually just a performance situation. What he is most worried about is defense rather than offense. He wants to see what the team will perform with the new formation in the face of Tottenham.

When the game ended, Wan Sheng still laughed.

The final score was 4:3. Derby County defeated the visiting Tottenham Hotspur at Pride Stadium with one more goal.

However, the defensive problems exposed in the game are also very prominent. Facts have proved that Leiden Ottoman cannot complete the core tasks well. Perhaps his physical fitness is very good and his defensive ability is also very good, but his "IQ" is worrying, that is, his mental attributes are not high and his consciousness is very average. It is difficult to use as the core, so Wan Sheng directly passed the Ottoman, and maybe he can perform well in other positions. But when the team uses the 4321 formation game, unless there is no choice, he will definitely find it difficult to have the opportunity to start.

Using a new formation game to win a victory also proves something. Overall, the gains from this game are still very good.

However, the media's ideas are obviously completely different from Wan Sheng. Although Derby County won the game, many media criticized Derby County after the game, saying that the criticism was not right. It should be said that it was an analysis. They believed that Derby County was too focused on offense and had great problems in defense. The victory in this game was a bit lucky. They played against Tottenham Hotspur, and only scored one more goal 4:3, which shows that Derby County's defensive problems are very serious, which is very different from their performance when they played against Arsenal.

“…but this is normal.”

"As the league enters September, Derby County has participated in more games, and many teams have already gained a good understanding of Derby County, so their performance has naturally become much worse."

"We can imagine that by October, Derby County will perform worse. Maybe they will have to consider relegation at that time. So, will the Chinese still have the courage to say the big talk of 'the goal is to win the Champions League place'? "

As a hostile media in Derbyshire known to all England, the Daily Mirror said that this is naturally normal, and Wan Sheng would not read their reports at all. That was just to make trouble for himself, but some neutral media also made voices that they were not optimistic about Derbyshire.

That's what the Guardian said, "Compared to last season, Derby County's offensive passes have become more and more beautiful offensives, but this game has proved that Derby County's defense has also had some problems with its offensive strengthening."

"... Perhaps head coach Wan Sheng should make the team play more conservatively, just like the second half of their league match between Arsenal, it is safer to deal with the league's opponents with defensive counterattacks."

Wansheng read these reports and analyzed them, and smiled and shook his head.

He naturally knew that some aspects of the media were correct. Think about Mourinho's Chelsea now, which actually implements the conservative tactic of '1:0', but they are Chelsea, and the team is full of big-name stars. Even if they play very conservatively, they can still score goals in the game and the defensive pressure will not be great. Derby County cannot compare in this regard.

The team does not have so many stars and their defensive abilities are not too strong.

If you blindly enhance your defense and keep your defense stable, it will definitely be difficult to play in the offense. Therefore, if you want to win more games, you must work hard on offense, otherwise it will be equivalent to playing against your weaknesses and avoiding your strengths. It will not be easy to achieve good results. What's more, his goal is not to relegation, but to win the Champions League place, at least in the top four in the league, so that you can complete the league task.

If you draw too many games, it will be very difficult to complete the task, let alone the three champions in the honor mission.

So Wansheng simply disdains the analysis of media.

Although stability is good, victory is more important. He would rather take some risks than win more games. What's more, with a football training master system, even in a few months of the season, Wan Sheng is confident that every player of the team will improve his strength, so that the team's performance will get better and better, and he doesn't have to worry too much.

After playing against Tottenham Hotspur, the team did not have any rest time and continued to train normally the next day, preparing to welcome a new event - the UEFA Cup qualifier.

Derby County was the FA Cup champion last season and is eligible to participate in the UEFA Cup according to English football rules. They will start from the qualifying stage. The first game will be on September 14th. Their opponent is Ferenkvaros from Hungary.

Ferenkvaros is a strong team in Hungary. They were the champion of Ferenkvaros' League One last season, so they are eligible to participate in the UEFA Cup. This is also their participation in European competitions after five years. For them, this time, it is also very important for them to participate in the competition.

In the entire Hungarian League One, only Ferenkvaros can participate in European competitions, so they can be said to carry the expectations of all Hungarian fans.

Although Wan Sheng does not think that Ferenkvaros can pose any threat to Derby County, this opponent must be treated with caution. After all, it is a qualifying match that determines the outcome in two rounds. It is best to win a big score in the first round at Pride Stadium, so as to ensure the possibility of qualifying.
