Chapter 295
After the staff was in order, Chelsea started the training camp for the new season.

For the Premier League, which has a busy and intensive schedule, summer training is undoubtedly crucial.

Especially for Chelsea now.

Although they did not introduce many players in the transfer window-Pan Yi only bought four players in total.

But if you add the six players called up from the youth team, and Courtois, who was called back from Atletico Madrid to train in the first team, the number of "new" players this season has reached 11.

This is almost half of the team changed!
Of course, some people come and some people go.

In addition to Lampard, Eto'o, Ashley Cole, Hilario and others whose contracts expired and left, Pan Yi also cleaned up the redundant staff in the team.

Sell ​​what can be sold, and rent out what can't be sold.

For example, Demba Ba was sold to Besiktas for 800 million, while Torres was loaned to AC Milan.

Also includes Sam Hutchinson sold to Sheffield Wednesday, Hazard Jr. rented to Monchengladbach, Passalic rented to Elche, Ryan Bertrand rented to Southampton, Romeu rented To Stuttgart... wait.

In general, Pan Yi can be considered to have passed the addiction of "driving a taxi"!
As a result, Chelsea's first-team roster for the new season has also been officially released.

Forwards: Schurrle, Hazard, Lukaku, Bamford, Seat B, Oscar, William.

Midfield: Mikel, Ramirez, Matic, Chick, Kante.

Defenders: Cahill, Terry, David Luiz, Azpilicueta, Ivanovic, Christensen, Ake, Zouma, Cancelo, Marcos Alonso.

Goalkeepers: Courtois, Cech, Schwarzer.

Whether it is the number or quality of personnel, it can basically meet the use of Pan Yi's 343 lineup in the new season.

After all, many players can play multiple positions!
Take the 10 people on the defense line as an example, exactly six central defenders plus four fullbacks, and each position has a main force and a substitute.

But Azpilicueta and Ivanovic can play central defenders at the same time, and Ake and Zouma can also play full backs, plus David Luiz can also play midfielders...

There are many such combinations.

The same is true for strikers and midfielders. For example, Ramirez is an all-around fighter who can play as a midfielder and a winger.

And even in case of any large-scale injuries, there are ways.

The players that Pan Yi rented out this year have basically added a clause that can terminate the lease at any time. This is where you can replenish ammunition.

In addition, there are still many young people waiting to be fed in the youth team, so there is really no need to worry.

However, since the personnel changes of the first team are relatively large, and Pan Yi will push his new three-back formation, this summer training is particularly important.

Pan Yi and his coaching team must allow the team to adjust to the best condition during the more than one month of summer training, and at the same time polish the team as a whole!
In addition to tactics, there are also physical reserves.

If it is said that the third-line battle in Hamburg has already tested the team's physical fitness, then in the Premier League, such a test is only high but not low.

There are naturally more teams in the Premier League than in the Bundesliga, and of course there are more games. Coupled with the fact that there are more competitions like the League Cup, the Premier League teams have no chance to rest even if it is Christmas.

And Pan Yi can get inspiration from the success of Hamburg, that is, when a player has enough physical fitness, it is not only reflected in the player's running ability and tactical execution ability on the field.

It even helps the team's concentration in the game, including the willpower after physical exhaustion, and the completion of movements, etc., can maintain a high level!
So of course Pan Yi attaches great importance to physical training.

Therefore, during the training camp, Pan Yi basically adopted a two-pronged approach, grasping with both hands, and hardening with both hands!

Of course, with the assistance of coaches such as Holland, Scaloni, and Pintus, Pan Yi's work is not too busy.

But the Chelsea players are going to be exhausted.

Especially players with less physical fitness like Lukaku and David Luiz almost killed them.

But when they saw Pan Yi standing by the sidelines calmly eating spicy strips, not "sympathizing with the fragrance and cherishing the jade" at all, they could only grit their teeth and persevere.

Moreover, in terms of physical training, it didn't even seem to have anything to do with Pan Yi.

If you have any objections, go find that bald head of Pintus.

But if you do find him...

Players will find it even more useless.

Pintus will only put on a more stinky face and let them run a few more laps!
At this time, Kanter, the "model student" in the team, played a very important role.

He never said a word, and his actions were always rigid, meticulous, without any discount, and he always ran at the front of the team when he ran.

Reminiscent of Kanter being Pan Yi's "first favorite" who was brought from Milan to Hamburg and then to Chelsea, this also shows what kind of player is most loved by the head coach Pan Yi!
Therefore, no matter how hard and tiring it is, everyone can only grit their teeth and follow Kanter to do their best!
After all, when a new coach, especially a champion coach, just came to the team, training performance is very important, which almost directly determines everyone's playing position and playing time in the new season!

Of course, there are no big thorns in the current Chelsea team.

Therefore, the training plan implemented by Pan Yi and the coaching staff did not encounter any resistance.

After all, Pan Yi came to Chelsea with the halo of the Triple Crown, and he has an irrefutable majesty and authority.

"I'm the Triple Crown, what kind of champion are you?"

This sentence alone can put back the objections of most people.

Not to mention the current Chelsea team, there are so many young people in their 20s, who have just been promoted to the first team by Pan Yi, or have just been bought, and they all try their best to express themselves.

So, at the end of the training, everyone rolled up without knowing it!

Originally, Pintus only asked to run ten laps, but someone wanted to run 12 laps.

So someone like Ramirez who is already good at running may ask for 15 extra laps...

Pan Yi was very satisfied with their performance.

As long as they are all within the healthy range predicted by Pintus, you can do whatever you like! ——
After physical training, Pan Yi usually arranges a tactical class in the afternoon, which will be taught by Pan Yi himself.

Since the current team, whether it is a coach or a player, most of them have been in contact with teams with a four-back system before, and they don’t know much about the three-back system, so Pan Yi also spent more time analyzing and explaining this.

"The development of modern football has become a game of space competition."

In the spacious and bright conference hall, Pan Yi was conducting his meticulous and accurate lessons to the formation chart on the big screen behind him.

After three years of his professional career, he already knows how to instill his tactical ideas and training requirements into players.

First explain, then think, then understand, and finally practice.

This is the "quartet" summed up by Pan Yi.

After all, playing football is not about taking exam papers, and it doesn't mean that you can play football well if you have the talent to be a problem solver.

The field is changing rapidly, if it is only implemented mechanically, knowing it but not knowing why, it is easy to become confused.

Only when you clearly know what to do and why do you do it, then even if there are constant changes on the field, players can easily respond and maintain the unity of the team's tactics.

Therefore, starting from the "explanation" of the first step, Pan Yi will deconstruct his own tactics in a simple way, and then combine them with examples to make it easier for players to understand.

"How to fight for space? It's actually very simple. That is, when attacking, find a way to increase your own space, and when defending, find a way to compress the opponent's space."

"Therefore, the system of pressing + zone defense has become the first choice for many teams' defense."

"In this defensive mode, when the opponent attacks the wing, it is not the full-back who goes up and presses alone, but the team must maintain a tight formation and move on the pitch as a whole to compress the opponent's space."

"This is where the difference between a four-back system and a three-back system comes into play."

"Take the most classic parallel 4-4-4 formation of 2 defenders as an example. The defenders and midfielders will form a 4-4 double chain to move as a whole, covering their own defensive area. Even if the opponent passes the first chain, there will be a second The chain will be filled."

"This can ensure that the area with the ball can be played more and less, and limit the opponent's space for holding the ball to make moves. This defensive organization method originated from Sacchi, and was carried forward by many coaches."

"In a three-back formation, the general idea of ​​defense is the same as that of four backs. It also pays attention to the overall movement of the formation to compress the opponent's space. However, it is a 4-3 chain formed by three central defenders and three midfielders to cover the central space. , the sidewalks are completely handed over to the wingbacks."

"This system was born out of the Libero system, but after evolution, it is more in line with the development of modern football. That is to say, under the 3 central defender system, the wingback is at the front line of the team's position when defending the position, and there will be three behind him Chain protection."

"Therefore, on the defensive end, more emphasis will be placed on the player's ability to move and to have a certain physical confrontation ability."

Having said that, Pan Yi glanced at Marcos Alonso.

Isn't this player with a height of 1 meters and a weight of 89 kilograms the standard template for this kind of wing back?
On the other side, Ivanovic is also a strong man with 1 meters and 88 kilograms.

"In the four-back system, the full-backs are on the second line of the position, so what is more important is the ability of players and teammates to coordinate running positions, and the ability to predict and assist defense, commonly known as good awareness of requirements."

In fact, there are such players in the current Chelsea team.

Their position selection and prediction are all top in the world, but they lack physical confrontation ability, and the frontal defensive area is not large enough, so it is very difficult to complete the first-time pressure and grab.

But their speed is faster, and they can also make up for the lack of grabbing ability through their own awareness and running positions.

That is Azpilicueta and Cancelo.

In other words, although these two players are theoretically more suitable for the position of full-back in the four-back formation, after Pan Yi's training and transformation, playing wing-back will not be too bad.

"And in offense, the biggest difference between a full-back and a wing-back is the timing of the advance."

"A full-back with 4 backs will not go forward at the moment when the team turns from defense to offense, but first press forward as the formation advances as a whole. When the team controls the ball or the opponent retreats, they will go forward to help attack. .”

"Under the three central defenders system, the wingbacks are more forward when defending, and there is not much to worry about. After the team gets the ball, they will move forward as soon as they get the ball and join the offense."

"In many teams, the wing-backs carry the ball forward and play as wingers in attack. It's the same with us."

"As for the offensive routine after the forward pass, should it be a lap or an inside cut? Should it cooperate with teammates or prop up a wing alone? Is it a bottom pass or a 45-degree cross? There is no set formula for these."

"Again, if the offense is full of formulas and the opponent's defense is as easy as passing an exam, then such a tactic is rubbish!..."

In addition to an in-depth analysis of the full-backs and wing-backs under the two systems, Pan Yi of course also introduced the wing-back offense under his own tactics.

Chelsea's offense may be initiated by central defender David Luiz, and sometimes he will be restricted by the opponent's pressing players. In this environment, Kanter and Matic need to actively retreat to share the pressure.

Generally speaking, because Kanter covers a larger area and is better at running and responding, he will often become the first choice for retreat assistance.

And as long as Kanter can successfully complete the task of transitioning the ball, Matic in front of him will have a better ability to pass the ball forward, and has certain long-passing skills, which can quickly transition the ball to the midfield area.

At this point, Chelsea's offense came to a critical link.

Because there is no midfielder in the traditional sense in this lineup, it may be difficult to rely on an offensive midfielder to organize and dispatch.

At this time, the team's further advancement will depend on Alonso and Azpilicueta's wing forward.

When facing a weaker team on paper, the two wingbacks "fly on both wings". Both of them have excellent forward awareness and have a good insertion speed. Also enter the opponent's defensive third area, whether it is a cross or an inside shot, it can bring great help to the team's offense.

This kind of high forward penetration not only provides two effective contact points for the side, but also can increase the load on the opponent's side defense, which is almost the old 2-3-5 offensive system.

With two wingbacks holding the ball on the wing, Seat B and Hazard, who are also excellent in personal strength, will have more room to move.

Both of them are masters of using space and are also experts in running without the ball. The rib gap between the central defender and the full-back is the space they focus on using. Hazard's sudden forward thrust behind him is even more obvious in his attack. One of the features.

In addition, in order to improve the team's offensive efficiency, Pan Yi will also arrange for two wingers and fullbacks to constantly switch positions.

For example, Alonso has a very good individual ability, his shooting skills are comparable to some top strikers.

Therefore, during the offensive process, Pan Yi sometimes arranges the B seat to go to the outside to make an assault, while Alonso at certain times makes a small change to the inside to participate in the offense.

This kind of movement seems to be just a simple substitution, but it can actually enrich the team's offensive system and allow the opponent's defensive players to disrupt their defensive awareness in a short period of time in order to obtain an instant gap.

In the middle, Pan Yi also asked Lukaku to use his physical advantages to become a good player in "fighting" with the opponent's defender.

In this way, his existence can involve the defensive attention of 1~2 central defenders, and he can control the ball and complete the transfer even under huge defensive pressure.

As for the selection of personnel for the midfielder position in the offensive state, Hazard, even Kanter and Matic are all capable.

Of course, under normal circumstances, it is more appropriate for Hazard to pull back from the winger position to assume the duties of the midfielder.

Hazard was one of the best wingers in world football during his time at Chelsea, and was once considered "the third man besides Melo".

During the offensive process, he doesn't have to repeatedly attack the opponent's defensive hinterland like a full-time winger. He can use his superstar-level pass control to reach the midfielder position, respond to Lukaku's return at the center position, and enrich the ball. The team's offensive system.

That is to say, the Chelsea requested by Pan Yi will change positions very frequently in the frontcourt during the attacking process. exchange.

The repeated rotation between players has enriched the offensive system, and also allowed players with certain offensive capabilities to have greater stage talent.

Of course, among the Premier League teams in this period, 4231, 433 and 442 are the mainstream, and there are not many teams using 343.

In terms of specific wing structure, other head coaches do not have high requirements for full-back switching.

Even in the tactics of some teams, the task of the full-back is basically completely limited to the wing, and there will be no rotation with the players in the center.

Therefore, Pan Yi's tactics are indeed a bit too complicated for many traditional full-backs, even Chelsea's experienced Azpilicueta or Ivanovic, let alone the young Cancelo and others.

However, Pan Yi was very detailed. He tried to crush his tactical concepts, from easy to difficult, and instilled them in the players bit by bit.

He also specially edited a lot of video materials, so that he can combine videos to explain and give players a more intuitive understanding.

Therefore, after one after another of such tactical explanation classes, the essence of Pan Yi's 343 formation tactics gradually penetrated into the minds of all players and coaches and became a part of their bodies.

Especially the few full-backs represented by Marcos Alonso, they were stunned at the beginning, then slowly learned, and then deeply understood.

Soon, whether the full-backs put pressure on the opponent's full-back through their personal ability, or follow the opponent's inside forward to move and protect the defense line, they can better complete the head coach's arrangement.
-
For Pan Yi's tactical class and the actual combat training after the tactical class, the general reaction of Chelsea players is one word-"well-deserved reputation"!
In the past few years, Pan Yi's tactical ability has been praised by many world-class coaches, and after personal experience, Chelsea players have also felt his high level of training.

Captain Terry told Chelsea's official TV reporter: "He may be the highest level manager I have ever seen!"

Terry said that in his more than ten years of professional career, Pan Yi is the head coach with the most meticulous preparation and the most special tactical concept he has ever seen.

Although he has not played a formal game under his command, Terry inexplicably believes that Chelsea will be able to succeed under the leadership of Pan Yi!
Hazard said: "It would be great if they were all tactical classes. I like Pan Yi as the head coach. But the problem is that his tactical classes are often accompanied by intense physical training... Oh my God, I can't I don't want to say another word, I'm going to rest!"

Seat B and Cancelo, who had just been transferred, looked a little shy in front of the camera, but they also expressed their admiration for Pan Yi:

"Many of the tactics the boss said surprised me. I have never heard such a detailed tactics lesson before him!"

"Although physical training is indeed tiring, I like the feeling of being tired but fulfilled. After each training session, I can feel as if I am improving and improving, which is very important."

"He brought us from Portugal, not for us to stand on the sidelines. We will work hard to make ourselves fit the boss's needs and be part of the starting XI!..."

However, they later discovered that their words seemed to be a little bit early.

From the first week of training to the second week, the intensity of training has been further improved!

Whether it is physical training, strength training, technical and tactical training, the daily training sessions are getting longer and longer in terms of duration, and players will naturally feel more and more tired.

In this regard, Pan Yi will naturally adopt the "personalized" training method that uses different training plans for different players.

Just like the veteran Terry, or the slightly older Ivanovic and Cahill, since it is difficult for them to improve some physical attributes, they will slightly lower the requirements for training intensity;
And those young people in their twenties, after the scientific recovery and relaxation in the physiotherapy room, they can all be alive and vigorously put into training, so Pan Yi relentlessly gives them strength, which is a bit similar to FM games It's the same as "double training intensity" when you click on it.

Therefore, Seat B and Cancelo were able to withstand it at first, but then they couldn't stand it anymore.

But what else can they say now?

I can only continue to carry on!
After nearly two weeks of such devil-style training, the Chelsea players finally ushered in the "dawn":
They will play a warm-up match against AFC Wimbledon.

They finally don't have to run laps anymore, but go to the court to show their majesty!
