A sliding tackle at the beginning, I am a star in Great Britain

Chapter 293 Dortmund strikes!Controversy over the core of the team's offense!

Awkward, uncomfortable, not free!
This is Wang Shen's true feelings.

He did a good job defensively throughout the second half, but didn't do much offensively.

This is not just his problem. Nani's sticky ball and Ashley Young's recklessness are also the reasons for the unsmooth offense.

But Wang Shen is not used to looking for reasons from others, he still prefers to look for his own problems.

So after the game, he specifically asked for the video of the game and had a post-match replay with Sir Alex.

"This ball was handled sloppily..."

"There's no need to give the ball to Nani, it's better to give it directly to Hernandez..."

"You can actually move forward with this ball, you look at that line too hard..."

The old man pointed out every mistake he made, and Wang Shen's frown became deeper and deeper.

"Did you find the problem?"

After all the replays were over, the old man asked him.

"The desire to attack is too strong."

Wang Shen thought about it and said, "Also, if you think too much, you will not do well on the offensive end."

The old lord nodded, then shook his head again.

"Not at all."

He said so.

"A big problem is that you have too many direct means of attack, causing you to lose interest in passing."

"Lost interest in passing?"

Wang Shen frowned suspiciously, and the old man nodded again for emphasis.

Then he skipped the video to the last few minutes of the game, when Wang Shen made a direct assist.

"At this time, you have recovered part of your state, and this assist is very good."

Wang Shen watched the replay of the game and nodded slowly.

"In the past few days of training, I will organize some small intra-team games. You should participate in passing the ball more and get back your old habits."

The old man said to Wang Shen while turning off the computer.

"Okay, boss!"

Wang Shen responded, and then left the old gentleman's room.

In the next few days, Sir Alex really organized many intra-team matches.

5V5, 7V7.

No matter which team competition, Wang Shen has participated.

And his task is to pass the ball, which surprised his teammates.

But neither Wang Shen nor the old man gave an explanation.

Until the day before the game, the day Dortmund came to Manchester City.

Only then did the old man explain the significance of this arrangement.

"Wang Shen will defend with all his strength to make up for the lack of physical fitness of the defensive players."

The old man's words made everyone look at Wang Shen in surprise.

Defensively?

What about trouble?

This is the core of our offense!
"Of course, except for Wang Shen, other people's advancement ability is limited, so in the advancement, he is still the main one."

The old man said, drawing a line on the tactical board.

"The distance from the first ten meters of the penalty area on the opposite side is the limit of his dribbling.

"Before he reaches this line, you have to run well and make a good response."

"The king didn't shoot from a long distance?" Carrick asked in surprise.

As a midfielder, he can see the disadvantages of this line at a glance.

"Maybe there will be, but not many."

The old man turned his head and glanced at Wang Shen, who nodded in confirmation.

"I can't say that I will definitely give up long shots, but I will focus on defense in this game."

Wang Shen's words shocked everyone.

The price to pay for an offensive core player to give up the offense is too great.

"As the core of the offense, the King is willing to give up offense to make up for the team's lack of defense. I hope that others will also work hard to complete their tasks."

With Wang Shen's contribution, the old man called everyone a word.

He didn't deliberately speak loudly, nor did he deliberately lower his voice.

But it was just such a plain sentence, coupled with Wang Shen's dedication, it really shocked everyone.

Everyone couldn't help but nodded consciously.

"Next, let me talk about the starting list."

After the old man said this, he began to paste his name on the tactical board.

Van Persie was put up first, then Rooney and Carrick.

After that came the midfielders, with Wang Shen and Beckham being the first to be posted.

But Jones did not appear in this position, and Anderson started instead of him.

The back four and the goalkeeper are still the old routine, after all, there are not many choices on it.

"Jones, you have to be ready to take Evans' place at all times."

The old man said this at the end of the personnel arrangement, and then looked at Evans again.

"In this game, you have to play at all costs, and you will replace Ferdinand in the forward position."

In the past, Ferdinand stood behind Wang Shen and existed as a forward central defender.

The central defender in this position must establish the first line of defense in the penalty area while making up for the loopholes in the midfielder.

The responsibility is heavy and the physical exertion is also very great.

In this game, Ferdinand obviously wanted Ferdinand to stay until the end, so he and Evans switched positions.

After arranging the defense, Sir Alex turned his attention to the three frontcourt players.

"Attack with Van Persie as the core, Rooney, you have to use your own impact to open up space for him.

"If Rooney is the main tactical change, Van Persie will have to do more supporting work."

After the two nodded to express their understanding, the old man looked at Carrick again.

"Pay attention to the distribution of the ball and use the transformation of the two offensive players to mobilize the opposing defense, understand?"

"understand!"

Carrick responded immediately.

Then the old man arranged several sets of full-back or midfield forward routines.

But no matter which routine, Wang Shen is no longer the core.

The only thing he has to do is to take the ball across the half court and finish the ball, and the subsequent task is to retreat in time.

When Sir Alexis introduced these tactics, many players would secretly look at Wang Shen to see if he was dissatisfied.

But Wang Shen was very calm during the whole process, he was sincerely willing to give up something for the team's victory.

This is not forced by the old man!
After arranging all the details, it's time for everyone to ask questions.

This link is mainly to allow players in each position to raise their own doubts, so that they can better understand their respective responsibilities tactically.

After coming to this session, Carrick was unexpectedly the first to ask a question.

He rarely asks questions on weekdays.

Because he has a very high understanding of tactics, he rarely speaks in this session.

But today he looked very confused, and when he asked questions, he stuttered for a long time and couldn't explain clearly.

"What you want to ask is the core question of the team?"

After he stopped, Pei Lan interjected, "Actually, you can just ask directly. Of course, this question must be answered by Wang Shen."

The most important responsibility of the core of the team is the distribution of ball rights.

It's no surprise that Carrick has this doubt.

The reason why he couldn't take the initiative to ask was because the question involved Wang Shen's status in the team.

He didn't mean anything malicious, but the question itself really seemed to be attacking Wang Shen.

So for an instant, everyone's eyes were on Wang Shen.

After Wang Shen was stunned for a moment, he immediately looked at Carrick with friendly eyes.

"Of course there is a core, but this time it's you!"

His words immediately made some players gasp.

No!

Does this give up the core position?
As the captain, you really don't want to fight?
Some people are puzzled, some people are confused.

But Wang Shen's next words solved everyone's doubts.
