After being rejected, I became Shi Yijiao

Chapter 246 Go through fire and water, Brother Yi!

As for what kind of tactics Guardiola will use against Hamburg, Pan Yi actually doesn't really want to guess.

One is that the guess is wrong, and the other is that there is no need to guess.

Because everything is the same.

If Guardiola thinks that the defeat in the Super Cup has a lot to do with the absence of Neuer, Gotze and others, then he is likely to still form an attacking midfield combination to defeat Hamburg in one fell swoop.

When he is not convinced, he will want to use the same or similar tactics to prove that he was not wrong last time, and the loss was only due to an unexpected failure after being short of troops.

Especially Neuer, the real World No. [-], that is really incomparable to a player of Stark's level!
In addition, Bayern is playing at home this time. With fans, morale and many other bonuses, Guardiola's offensive formation is almost certain.

And speaking of Bayern, if Guardiola was allowed to choose the position he least expected of Pan Yi's lineup in the Super Cup, it would be the center forward.

At that time, Pan Yi used Mitrovic, a young substitute center, as a fulcrum, and made full use of this advantage, and really caught Guardiola by surprise.

If according to the normal thinking of ordinary coaches, Mitrovic was used in the last win against Bayern, then of course he will continue to use it this time.

Therefore, Guardiola will also respond according to Pan Yi's tactical thinking with Mitrovic.

Unfortunately, Pan Yi is not an "ordinary coach".

……

When Vardy came to the head coach's office, Pan Yi was playing games on the computer.

This game is FM2014, which has just been officially launched.

Pan Yi also chose to coach Hamburg in the game, so in reality, Pan Yi created a manager account, replacing Pan Yi, the original head coach of Hamburg in the game.

Uh...it seems a bit convoluted.

But Hamburg's performance in the game is not as good as reality. At present, the league has played 15 rounds, but it is behind Bayern and Dortmund, only ranking third in the Bundesliga.

"The programmer of this game is still not good. There is no way to fully simulate the essence of our 433 tactics." Pan Yi pointed to the game screen and said to Vardy with a smile, "Look, you were beaten by Bayern."

Vardy also looked at the screen cheerfully.

Everyone in Hamburg knows that Pan Yi likes to play football manager games.

The company director of this game is good friends with Pan Yi, they even know that the cover of this game is Pan Yi.

They also know that many player values ​​in this game, including tactical responsibilities, are adjusted by many suggestions given by Pan Yi.

Vardy also plays occasionally, but after all, the time to play is limited, so he didn't study it in depth, and his play was average.

He now sees that the screen is Bayern's home game against Hamburg, and the current score is already 2:0, Bayern is leading.

In the list of Hamburg players at the bottom of the screen, Vardy also saw the name of the starting center: "Valdy".

He also seemed to understand why Pan Yi called him to the office to chat.

"It's really hard to train you in the game, but you're actually not very easy to use." Pan Yi suddenly complained, "But this is a problem with the mechanism of their game, and I can't help it."

In the screen, Vardy happened to have a shot and was caught by Neuer.

Although this is only the second year for Vardy to play in the top league, he is already 26 years old.

At the age of 26, for many players who play FM games, they belong to the "veteran" level, and their ability growth will basically stagnate.

So even if Pan Yi suggested that the game company gave Vardy a higher potential value, Vardy is not an easy-to-use striker due to the difficulty in attribute growth.

"I won't buy myself when I play the game myself." Vardy laughed, "I prefer to use Cavani and Lukaku."

"It seems that you understand this game." Pan Yi also smiled.

In the FM game, the best forwards have always been used, not those with good shooting and technical values, but those with strange bodies.

Explosion, speed, strength, balance, dexterity...

These numbers are high, it is really easy to use.

Even after a few years it will still be the same.

For example, in FM2020-2021, there was a famous body monster Thomas Amon, who could kill the Quartet with only 9 shots, and became the first choice for many players to lead a small team.

"But you and I both know that you are not like this in reality." Pan Yi pointed to the screen again and looked at Vardy with a smile.

Vardy nodded.

He knew that Pan Yi was going to get to the point.

Sure enough, Pan Yi then minimized the FM game on the computer screen, and opened a folder named "Valdi" on the computer desktop.

Inside, there are video files one by one. These are the highlights of Vardy's games in the past two seasons.

That's right, because Pan Yi will use Vardy to deal with Bayern this time, so it is necessary to let Vardy understand his own characteristics in more detail, understand Pan Yi's tactical thinking, and how to crack Bayern's defense!

Unlike Mitrovic, Vardy is only 179cm tall and weighs only 74kg, so he is not a center in the traditional sense.

He doesn't like to stay in the penalty area all the time, prefers to pull the sidelines and has a wide range of activities.

Taking the ball with his back is not his strong point, but speed is his most prominent place.

Relying on his speed, Vardy prefers to walk around the opponent's offside line. Through active and large-scale cruising and running, not only can he find opportunities to counter-offside at any time, but he can also constantly "pull" the opponent's defense line and create space for teammates. .

"Look at the ball. Salah on the wing takes away the opponent's full-back. You use this space to directly face the opponent's central defender and finally score a goal. This is your sharpest weapon." Pan Yi said Then, he suddenly asked, "Then what do you think is your weakness?"

"Hmm..." Vardy pondered for a moment and replied, "As a center forward, my ability to confront and hold the ball with my back is not very good, and my dribbling ability is not top-notch. I rely more on changes in speed and rhythm to get rid of opponents. , doesn’t have much of an advantage against defenders who are equally quick and agile.”

Pan Yi nodded appreciatively.

There is no perfect player in this world, even Messi and Ronaldo are strong, they always have their own shortcomings.

And an excellent player is able to recognize his own strengths and weaknesses, and then use his strengths and avoid weaknesses in the game to give full play to his good abilities.

Of course, the same is true of a good head coach, he can always put the right players on the right formation responsibilities, and then match the right tactics to let each player take advantage of it.

Now Pan Yi is going to use Vardy to deal with Bayern's defense.

Vardy is characterized by fast speed, likes to pull sideways, is diligent and diligent, and has excellent shooting skills, and his contributions to oppression and defense can be said to be absolutely in line with Pan Yi's requirements, and even better than Pan Yi expected.

And if the opponent uses a high position to press, due to the existence of Vardy, the opponent's defense must always be wary of what is behind him. After all, in Hamburg's formation, there are many long passers in the midfield.

At the same time, although Vardy is not tall, his positive attitude and running position give him a certain ability to compete for the first point. Even the big feet of average quality in the backcourt can be taken down for his teammates. Players can't do it.

Opponents are afraid of Vardy's existence, so they need to weigh carefully if they adopt a high-position defense line. They must either risk being beaten behind, or leave more depth for Hamburg, or completely abandon the high-position oppression.

This is the advantage of using Vardy.

Since Bayern suffered a loss from Mitrovic in the Super Cup last time, Guardiola is likely to send a combination of Dante and Van Aten Jr. to defend. At this time, Vardy will focus on suppressing Dante after he goes up.

Due to Dante's slow turning speed, Bayern may not be able to play the high defense line too comfortably due to Vardy's speed, and Hamburg can also use the long pass from the backcourt to hit Bayern's counterattack.

Vardy's speed determines that he is a big killer in a quick counterattack!
This is actually his ability to eat, and Pan Yi didn't elaborate too much on it.

Next, Pan Yi focused on talking to Vardy about his role in the offensive phase of the position.

After all, the current Hamburg is not the team that had to play defensive counterattacks when it encountered a strong team!

They are going to compete with Bayern for midfield control.

Therefore, the appearance of positional attack is indispensable.

Unlike Mitrovic's ability to play a central fulcrum and siege attack when playing positional warfare, Vardy's ability to operate on the side will play an important role at this time.

For example, when Vardy moves to the left side, cooperate with the left winger, add Robertson who is plugged in, and Kanter who is already active on this side, the four people cooperate with Casemiro, who is behind to protect, and can form a team on the left side. The strong side of ball control is the concept of "overload" that Pan Yi has often mentioned in the team recently.

This is also different from when he used the right side to suppress Adriano when he played Barcelona before, because Vardy can wander on both sides and support one of them at any time, forming a larger and more flexible strong side overload.

If Bayern's central defender and defensive midfielder do not make up for this side, Hamburg will be able to form a local numerical advantage, and there will be a risk of partial breakthroughs.

Still take the overload on the left side as an example. In this case, Casemiro's ability to control and pass the ball plus Sun Xingmin and Vardy's cross-running position can be played locally. Once the blast is completed, an opportunity can be formed.

If Bayern does not move in time as a whole, and only some players in the middle make up for it, then there will be gaps in the weak side ribs or the top of the arc in the penalty area, whether it is Salah, or De Bruyne who inserted in the midfield, or even Kava Hal can make good use of this gap.

And if Bayern's overall formation is very tight and they move over as a whole while Hamburg forms an "overload", then the weak side will be exposed.

Hamburg quickly shifted to the weak side at this time (it just so happens that Hamburg midfielders have Casemiro, De Bruyne and others who are proficient in this), it is easy for Salah to get a one-on-one opportunity, whether it is Salah He directly entering the penalty area, or allowing Carvajal to complete a high-quality cross after cooperation, will pose a considerable threat.

During the transfer of the ball to the weak side, it will inevitably drive the opponent's formation to move laterally. At this time, Vardy's ability to run without the ball can be brought into play.

These routines, once played, will have this effect: Hamburg controls the ball from the left and mobilizes the opponent. Casemiro uses his vision and technology to pick the ball out and transfer it quickly. On the other side, Salah takes the ball to Kava Hal created the bottom space, Carvajal calmly completed the cross, and then Vardy relied on running and aggressively bullying the opponent's full-back to complete the goal.

This picture is likely to become the ultimate move for Hamburg against Bayern!
And the same routine, Vardy switching to the right will also work.

Why did Pan Yi do this this time?
It is precisely because Guardiola is now starting to use the full-back inward tactics, and whether it is Alaba or Ram inward, the wing they originally guarded will lack defensive strength.

Coupled with the fact that Gua Shuai is now superstitious about letting Thiago play as a midfielder, there will definitely be omissions in the wing defense.

Therefore, letting Vardy lead the team as a whole to kick the overloaded side to suppress the opponent's side will be a magic weapon for Hamburg to win.

"Hmm, um." Listening to Pan Yi's explanation in conjunction with the video, Vardy nodded frequently.

This is not the first time he heard Pan Yi talk about such a detailed tactical analysis.

Whenever there is a strong enemy, when Pan Yi needs the players to complete some special tactical instructions, he will call specific players to make such an explanation.

What surprised Vardy was that he could always hear different, fresh and advanced tactical ideas every time!

This also makes him full of admiration and trust for this young coach who is only one year older than himself.

Coupled with Pan Yi's kindness to him, Vardy's feelings for Pan Yi are almost on the level of idol worship.

Finally, Pan Yi told Vardy:
"The prerequisite for this strong overload tactic to be effective is to have a chemical reaction with your teammates, so that you can control the ball on the strong side."

"Once you can't think of going with your teammates all the time, then the effect of this tactic will be greatly reduced!"

"So, you can't just think about shooting yourself. You should observe your teammates more when you get the ball, and actively cooperate with your teammates at any time!"

Vardy took a deep breath.

Now he fully understands what he should do.

Vardy immediately nodded heavily and said: "Boss, please rest assured, I will definitely not let you down in this game!"

Pan Yi smiled and said: "I believe in you. Since the day you joined my team, you have never disappointed me, and this time is the same."

Vardy was a little moved.

How can he be!

A guy who was still in the amateur league at the age of 25 was suddenly picked up by a guy known as a genius coach to play in the top league in Germany, and then he was entrusted with important tasks and given unconditional trust and support.

This Pan Yi is really his favorite man!
And he did not live up to Pan Yi's expectations of him, as evidenced by becoming the team's top scorer and winning the Bundesliga runner-up.

He also believes that under Pan Yi's coaching, Hamburg's achievements must not be limited to the Bundesliga runner-up, or even the Bundesliga champion!

"By the way, if one day I go to coach another team, will you be willing to follow me?" Pan Yi asked suddenly.

Pan Yi also suddenly thought of this.

Isn't this Crystal Palace wanting to dig him?And the Premier League team's buying is not as convenient and casual as the Bundesliga team.

That really requires a household registration book and a labor certificate!

Labor certification is easy to handle, but at worst, you can get EU players or international players from various countries.

But the easy-to-use account is not easy to get.

This is why some English players are actually of average level but their value is ridiculously high.

Coincidentally, Vardy is the authentic household registration book of Daying!
So he tentatively asked a question, which can be considered as preparation for the future.

Vardy, on the other hand, did not hesitate at all, standing at attention and answering:

"I'll go wherever you go. Go through fire and water, Brother Yi!"

Pan Yi was very satisfied with this answer.

It seems that I have cultivated a group of loyal soldiers in the past two years...

……

After conducting one-on-one coaching for key players, Pan Yi also held a tactical preparation meeting for the whole team.

He needs to finally unify everyone's thinking before the game, and also to mobilize the whole team before the game.

"Before I start, I want all of you to be clear-headed."

Pan Yi stood on the main podium, facing everyone in front of him, including the coaching staff, players and staff.

Everyone looked at him intently, the audience was silent, only Pan Yi's voice remained.

"That is for this weekend's game, our team has only one goal." Pan Yi said the word forcefully: "Victory!"

Pan Yi's expression was unusually firm, as if no one was allowed to raise different opinions.

He wants to use this method to let everyone feel his determination and his fighting spirit.

"I don't want a draw, and of course I don't want to lose, I just want to win!"

"I know it's Bayern, it's a strong Bayern, it's Bayern at home. But I still want to win. Manchester City can do it and we can do it too."

"When we lost to them at the Allianz Arena last season, I said, I'm going to go back there in a year and win the ball back. Now is the time!"

"Victory in the Super Cup? That doesn't count, because it's not at the Allianz Arena. Only winning at the Allianz Arena is called getting up wherever you fall!"

"This may be the most difficult game of our entire Bundesliga season. Bayern has not lost to any Bundesliga team at home for a long time. But I don't believe in evil, we are going to break this record this time!"

"Then, completely suppress Bayern, firmly occupy the top position, and let them catch up and despair!..."

Pan Yi's speech made everyone present feel the raging flames of war in his heart!
Players and coaches all roared, and they also had confidence.

It is also the common wish of all of them to kill Bayern at the Allianz Arena!
……

In the 16th round of the Bundesliga, as soon as the battle started, it added a few more topics to the battle between Bayern and Hamburg.

Hoffenheim drew with Dortmund 2:2 at home!
Huo Cun took a 2-0 lead in the first half with the goals of Wallander and Spurlock, which almost stunned Klopp's Dortmund directly.

Fortunately, Klopp made timely adjustments. Aubameyang and Piszczek scored two consecutive goals in the second half to avoid another defeat for Dortmund.

But it also slowed down their pursuit of the top two.

And Leverkusen was even worse. Their feet were completely fixed to the ground, or they fell.

They lost 0:1 at home to last season's dark horse Frankfurt. Midfielder Lars scored the only goal of the game in 61 minutes.

Neither team could win, making the clash between Bayern and Hamburg all the more important.

Many media believe that this game is even an early final, and the result will directly determine the Bundesliga champion this season.

For Bayern, which is still two points behind, whether it can take advantage of the home court to bring down Hamburg is also extremely critical.

In order for a lagging team to overtake, in addition to performing well, it also depends on the opponent making mistakes.

But now Hamburg is playing very steadily, the state of the players does not fluctuate much, and there is actually very little room for mistakes.

Therefore, if Bayern wants to hold their destiny in their own hands, they must seize this opportunity.

As we all know, the fastest way to shorten the gap in the standings is the direct dialogue between each other, which is why there is a "six-point battle" in some key battles.

……

The finale of the 16th Bundesliga is Bayern vs. Hamburg at home.

This is not only the focus of the Bundesliga, but also a decisive battle that fans all over the world pay attention to.

Because this is also a head-to-head match between two teams that have performed well in the Champions League!

In the pre-match press conference, both Guardiola and Pan Yi admitted that this will be the team's most important battle of the season.

This battle will be a watershed that will determine the direction of the Bundesliga champions this season.

Guardiola said that since he lost to Hamburg in the Super Cup, he has studied and analyzed Pan Yi's tactics. He believes that he will defeat Hamburg this time, and his revenge will be successful!
But Pan Yi also mentioned the word "revenge".

"We lost away to Bayern last season, and I wanted revenge at that time, and I don't think the victory in the Super Cup is revenge."

"I told my players that if you lose at Allianz, you must win it back at Allianz. This is revenge!"

"Therefore, me and everyone in the team will do everything possible to beat Bayern at the Allianz Arena and continue convincingly at the top of the Bundesliga table!"

Such a powerful speech made the media and fans all over the world excited.

Moreover, the declaration of revenge before the game itself is the most eye-catching, and it is also the best way to let the players burst into fighting spirit, but this time, it is actually a "double revenge" mode?
Revenge on both sides?

This is even rarer than eating an egg with a double yolk.

Whether in Germany, Europe, Asia, or even America, Oceania...

Almost all fans are talking about this game.

And the media from various countries will not let go of this traffic-filled duel. It is said that TV stations in more than 100 countries and regions will broadcast live.

Some media said:

"This is not just an ordinary Bundesliga match, it's a duel between two championship-level teams! This is a duel between two famous coaches, a stage for top tactics and player performances, and a festival for fans all over the world! "
