Starting with Real Madrid kicking the midfielder

Chapter 50 You, Start Pre-Practice for Me 】

After four consecutive victories, Milan's limelight in Serie A can be said to be the same for a while.

After all, against the background of a bunch of opponents who stretch from time to time, Milan, which has won four consecutive victories in one fell swoop, is naturally more "kingly".

After all, in Serie A, the team that wants to win the championship must be stable.

The champion team may not be the one with the most wins, the most goals scored, or even the one with the most goal difference.

But basically it will be the most stable defense and scene.

If the defense is stable, and the offense can be said a little bit, it can basically achieve a stable victory over the mid-lower teams.

In layman's terms, it is necessary to have a reliable and stable ability to abuse food.

Milan's current record is a good illustration of this point.

Don't care how long you have defended Namiland against Cesena, that is, you can get three points steadily, and the same is true against Lecce.

Both Inter Milan and Lazio overturned one after another, but Milan can handle Pepper in two rounds.

With a wave of bad food and points, and Naples and Inter Milan overturning the middle and lower teams one after another, Milan expanded the league lead to eight points in one fell swoop.

Almost three wins of tolerance.

It's no wonder that my Uncle Jiong's confidence is bursting.

However, it is still too early for the league to end, and Milan's formation and new style of play also have room for further improvement.

Therefore, on January 1, after Milan's visa-free Bayern midfielder Van Bommel reported to Milanello, Allegri started his new round of tactical transformation.

When Pirlo was behind, both Li Ang and Gattuso needed to put in more energy on the defensive end to protect the middle of the midfield from being exploited by opponents.

But now if Van Bommel is assumed to be the starting midfielder, then Li Ang and Gattuso will have more spare energy to support the frontcourt players.

Of course, it is unrealistic to put Van Bommel directly as the starting main force. After all, Pirlo has proved that he is still very capable of playing and has a considerable tactical role.

It is impossible for Allegri to forcibly refrigerate the leather master under such circumstances.

But Pirlo's physical fitness is not as good as before, and he always needs to be rotated.

So Allegri put forward new requirements for Li Ang in response to Pirlo's rotation and Van Bommel's delayed start.

"Huh? Let me practice forward penetration?"

On January 1th, Li Ang, who was preparing to practice short passing on the training ground, was in disbelief when he heard Uncle Jiong's new request for him.

"Yes, it's you, start practicing forward penetration for me from today."

"Isn't there Kevin (Boateng), he's better than me."

"The two of you will go forward together. He has a long shot and you have a header. The threat of the two of you rushing together will be several times greater."

Seeing that Uncle Jiong didn't look like he was joking, Li Ang just felt a little bit pained.

It's not that he refuses to participate in the offense, but that he penetrates into the opponent's penalty area to score points before the game is smoothly in progress. He has never participated in such an offensive mode before.

Can it really work?
With habitual doubts, Li Ang and Boateng cooperated jerky in the forward tactics specially formulated by Allegri.

On the afternoon of January 1, Ibrahimovic, Robinho, Pato and several forwards also joined in the tactical drill of the new offensive routine.

And Li Ang also thought he had grasped Allegri's true intentions.

After all, the practice of new offensive routines is still very simple.

Either Zlatan Ibrahimovic and his forwards played a screen, and he and Boateng rushed forward to attack the opponent's defense line at the moment when the wide player made a pass.

Either he and Boateng rushed in to disrupt the opponent's defense line deployment, and then Zlatan Ibrahimovic and the others played the "harvest battle" as the second offensive echelon.

"Essentially, it's still about winning in chaos."

Li Ang consciously understood what Uncle Jiong meant, and felt a little relieved about this new offensive routine.

After all, he didn't take on any heavy responsibility for scoring goals. At best, he was used as a battering ram to help other offensive players attract defensive firepower.

As for covering Ibrahimovic, Pato or covering Boateng's goal is the same, he just needs to do his own covering work well.

Step by step, we practiced a few training sessions together. On January 1, Milan embarked on an away trip to South Sicily to challenge the Catania club.

Another relegation team hovering near the relegation zone, Milan did not feel much tension from top to bottom.

Even the new aid Van Bommel looked a lot more relaxed after knowing the general strength of the opponent.

I don't know if Uncle Jiong is too satisfied with the quality of the recent training, or if he is really tired from seeing Pirlo.

Van Bommel was directly arranged to start this round of the league.

Li Ang felt a little flustered.

Van Bommel started playing as a midfielder, and he and Gattuso had to change their style of play slightly.

Gattuso is more to help support the pass forward, but he has to go forward to attack with real knives and guns.

This training belongs to training, and it is another matter to use it in competitions. Li Ang felt that he could take it easy, but Allegri did not give him any time to adapt to the new role.

At 20 o'clock in the afternoon, as the whistle sounded in the Massimino Stadium, the second round of the No.[-] Serie A match between Milan and Catania officially started.

Today, apart from using new aid Van Bommel as the starting midfielder, Milan did not make much personnel changes in other positions.

Ibrahimovic and Pato starting partner double striker.

Big Boateng served as the attacking midfielder, and Li Ang and Gattuso lined up on both sides of the midfield.

On the defense line, Nesta, who returned from injury in the last round and played well, continued to start with Silva, Antonini rotated, left back Zambrotta started today, and right back Abate.

The starting goalkeeper is still Abbiati.

As for Catania's starting players, they didn't have much to say. Most of them, Li Ang, felt "unfamiliar" when they looked at them.

There is only one Maxi Lopez and Gomez, and he still has an impression.

The former is famous in football in later generations because his wife Wanda was abducted by the "Fudo Myo" Icardi of the small world.

The latter is well known by fans because of the outstanding performance of later generations in Atlanta.

But the current strength of the two of them is not too outstanding.

Catania, like most relegation teams, suffers from constipation on offense and a mess on defense. Anyway, it is a mediocre team.

At first glance, it makes sense for Allegri to use an opponent like this to practice new offensive and defensive routines.

Soon after the start of the game, Li Ang gritted his teeth and followed Boateng to see the opportunity to move forward.

I have to say that it feels really cool to have a defensive gate behind you to wipe your ass.

It was also the first time for Li Ang to enjoy such tactical treatment. After being cautious once or twice, he slowly let go and rushed forward, and the effect was really impressive.

In the 14th minute of the first half, Li Ang found his first chance to reach the top and completed his first shot of the game.

Under the confrontation, the ball was slightly off the top, but Allegri was quite satisfied with it off the court.

Big Boateng shot from a long distance, and Li Ang rushed to the top to fight for the header. The offensive tactics inserted behind the midfield are getting more and more abundant~
"Who dares to say that I won't arrange an attack?"

Thinking of this, Allegri looked at Li Ang who had slipped back to the midfield at this moment to fight against Catania's offensive players.

"This kid can be used anywhere. No, I have to study further"
