Things are a bit tricky, and Latimer is indeed a hard bone.

If Latimer attacks Lu Yiqi directly, or provokes or protests righteously, or even talks in depth face to face, no matter what it is, Lu Yiqi can find a breakthrough; but now Latimer is silent, looking like he is doing business and does not enter the country, and no one knows whether it is a matter of being in person and behind the scenes. This makes Lu Yiqi unable to start and faces severe problems.

"Patient." Lu Yiqi told himself secretly that this is also an important test for the head coach.

Although Robert still had a lot of opinions about Lu Yiqi, although other defensive coaches were not sure what to do... but no one expressed his opinion in the end. He secretly glanced at Latimer and Lu Yiqi's faces, then shut his mouth and started to study the game video again.

The video starts playing again.

Lu Yiqi's impression of this defense is a bit vague-

To be precise, most of the first half, memories were like being thrown into a mixer and smashed, and all the pictures were mixed together; even if you really see the picture now, there are only some fragmented fragmented scenes, and it is still impossible to organize them completely:

The defensive forward chose three-man rushing passes, and the rushing passes was very good. Defensive end Ian Campbell even tore a gap in his pocket protection, allowing Auburn quarterback Brandon Cox to run and find a pass target in a bumpy state.

But Cox's handling was very calm, using his own steps to find opportunities in the chaos, and then a small diagonal light throw passed the entangled area between the offensive and defensive front lines. In the area where the short pass was close to the middle pass, he found his external receiver with a nine-yard short pass on the inside of the right wing.

The Wildcats' linebacker and cornerback had a loophole in the junction of the covered area, and the opponent easily completed the catch. The closing defense made a missed tackle, which made the wide receiver break through. The nine-yard short pass eventually evolved into the advancement of a 21-yard long-distance raid.

From successful pressure on the defensive front line to retreating on the defensive second line, the Wildcats' defense team obviously failed to keep up with the pace, and it can even be said to be a very bad defense.

"What do you think is the key to such a major mistake in the defense team?" Latimer paused the game video and asked.

The defensive coaches looked at each other: Who are you asking?

If it is normal, there is naturally no doubt. One problem is collectively involved, everyone expresses their opinions and interprets it from different perspectives, because the tactical system of rugby is a one-on-one move, and different information can be observed at different positions. Coaches must coordinate and cooperate with each other to brainstorm to control the overall situation.

Generally speaking, a rugby tactical meeting can be divided into two parts. The first part is game video analysis, and the second part is the tactical arrangement meeting for the next game. The specific steps of the two parts are similar:

First, there is a collective meeting of the coaches' team, then there is an internal meeting of the coaches of the offensive and defensive groups, and then a collective meeting of all players. Next, the coaches of the offensive and defensive groups lead their own internal meetings with their players, and finally they go to the court to practice tactics.

Communication between coaches and players is also very important, otherwise such complex tactics will likely not keep up with the players.

Rugby players are sometimes similar to students and white-collar workers, with endless meetings and endless homework.

Of course, for the specific meeting order and small meeting arrangement, each coach of each team has his own habits, and the details may be different. This is the case with the small meetings within the defensive team at this time. Before the collective meeting, Latimer took the lead in convening a brief meeting to clarify the issues they need to discuss, and avoid the need to temporarily organize ideas above the conference.

Although Lu Yiqi prefers to go directly to the conference, using brainstorms with inspiration to analyze game videos and formulate game tactics, each coach has his own style and he does not think that Latimer's habits are special.

However, now Latimer's questioner is obviously aiming at Lu Yiqi.

"The pressure on the front line is not enough." Lu Yiqi did not pause at all, and his thoughts blurted out. Even though he had no impression of this defense, the core key was clear at a glance.

"Absurd!" Latimer didn't think so. The solemn and solemn voice was powerful without anger. A simple word expressed a clear attitude.

"What about the defense of the linebacker and cornerback? This defense, here! Here! Here! There were obvious misjudgments and missing people at least three positions."

While speaking, Latimer pointed at the projection screen with infrared rays and emphasized his opinion, "The entire regional joint defense in the second line cannot be pulled up, so how can we talk about defense? The front-line confrontation requires hard strength to support it. This is obviously not our strength. Even if we invest a lot of troops, we cannot achieve results. Instead, it further weakens the second line defense. How to use regional joint defense to consolidate defense is the focus of defense."

Sharp and powerful! Sound and loud!

Latimer's understanding of defense is not inferior to Lu Yiqi. The theoretical discussion is reasonable. It is precisely because the Wildcats' defensive players lack hard power that they should avoid the tough confrontation part and build advantages through collective cooperation, which is also a characteristic of collective projects.

"But if the regional joint defense faces huge pressure and lose sight of the other; and the tactical awareness of the defensive players cannot keep up, then how should they solve it?" Lu Yiqi did not show any weakness, and then fought back head-on. His neither humble nor arrogant eyes showed his confidence-

Even when he was an offensive coordinator last year, Lu Yiqi had already shown his character and ability, with clear ideas, overall layout, meticulous thoughts at tactical meetings, and occasionally wonderful ideas, which really made people realize that this young Chinese coach really has hard power.

Latimer was about to launch a counterattack, but Lu Yiqi immediately followed and blocked Latimer's words, "Do you just throw the white flag and surrender? Of course not! Instead, you should use tactical adjustments to make up for the gap in hard power, so that the team can have more possibilities and strive for victory."

"Pressing the front line is your tactical layout?" How could Latimer be easily convinced? "The three defensive front lines cannot solve the problem, so they also pressed the four linebackers? So, seven players cannot solve the problem? What about your backcourt? What should we do? You should know that our defensive front line cannot accumulate enough advantages by relying on the number of players. This is a stupid and childish idea."

Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang!

The head-on collision was not outdone, and there was no relaxation between you and me. The head-on collision sparked with sparks, filled with a faint smell of blood. The other coaches present could not interfere at all, and they all stared at each other, feeling that they had suffered a critical hit of 100,000 points.
Chapter completed!
