Chapter 11 Team Building

   But obviously not now, because this is only the first time Gao Bo has seen his players.

During this period of time, he has gone through the information of the players that can be tried on his hand several times, and now he needs to combine training, and he can only use the smart eye skills that can only be used once a day to select the players suitable for his tactics and put the team The main frame of the company will come out first.

   The previous life Gao Bo was also a **** fan. He was extremely impressed with the Leicester City that created the myth in the 2015-2016 season.

   Ranieri's team was almost on the basis of last season's relegation, snatching the Premier League title from the mouth of the Premier League's strong mouth, and staged a grassroots counterattack!

   A team may be able to defeat a strong enemy with a short-term performance, but it is obviously impossible to win the championship in the long league competition without a few brushes.

In this life, Gao Bo is a professional coach. After combining the memory of that Leicester City in his mind, he summarized a few key points: rapid transfer, creation of space through movement in offense, and compactness in defense. Standing and accumulating players in the penalty area prevents the opponents from forming shots on the two wings and constantly oppressing opponents with the ball.

  Leicester City's formation is a classic 4-4-2. Ranieri requires the team to be tightly positioned and it is difficult for the opponents to control them. Vardy sits on the front line, Okazaki Shinji behind him, and will retreat to assist the midfielder if necessary.

Leicester City's goal is to reduce the distance between them as much as possible, forcing their opponents to attack from the two wings, and can only pass the ball into the penalty area from both sides. This is why they pile up players in the penalty area. The opponent is almost impossible. In other words, it is difficult to score goals in this way.

Once Leicester City steals the ball, they switch from defense to offense very quickly. The players will directly find Vardy with a long pass and quickly form a counterattack. Vardy and Okazaki Shinji penetrate into the middle of the opponent's defense line to attract the defense of the opponent's center back. Create space for teammates in the second echelon behind you.

   If the defensive counterattack does not work, Leicester City will switch to a positional battle. The striker will move forward and the second-tier players behind the striker will make a longitudinal impact towards the opponent's penalty area.

   Once the ball is lost, Leicester City will immediately press and defend the opponent to prevent the opponent from forming an offense, which will make it difficult for the opponent to cope. When changing from offense to defense, Vardy is the first line of defense. He will oppress the opponent's ball holder. Kanter and Drinkwater will support him in the midfield. If such a robbery fails to intercept the ball, Leicester City players will reclaim the line to defend.

   Several key players who created miracles for Leicester City were summoned by Gao Bo, so this set of tactics can also be transplanted to Luton now.

  According to the plan, the players have to pass a week to restore their physical condition to the state they were in the game stage of last season-after a holiday, many players have gained a lot of weight.

   Then there is a ten-day physical training. No matter what tactics are implemented on the field, physical fitness is the basis of the team.

   After the training started, Gao Bo opened the football card examination system.

   When a light curtain appeared again, Gao Bo always looked at the unresponsive people around him with some guilty conscience.

   This light curtain can only be seen by myself.

   Equip cards!

   The card is successfully equipped!

   On the hollow click, a card emitting blue light fits exactly on the edge of the card and is inlaid in. At the same time, several lines of blue lettering on the card also emit light.

   Training effect increased by 15%!

   After the card was equipped, Gao Bo looked around and found that there was nothing unusual.

   It was not until a week later, when the physical coach and team doctor Haruko came to report on the players' status, Gao Bo discovered the awesomeness of this skill.

   "High, it seems that the players are quite devoted to training. In less than a week, almost all the players have lost weight..." Mel Donald said excitedly.

   Gao Bo squeezed his chin, where is the player's high level of engagement, it is clearly the role played by the training card. It seems that the effect of this card is really good.

   "In that case, let's start the next stage of training as soon as possible!"

   Pre-season training is the most critical preparation stage for an entire season. Time does not wait.

   "Uh...It's just that another player's training situation is not ideal..." Mel Donald said bitterly.

"who is it?"

   "Sam Parker..."

Mel Donald said with some distress. In Donald's view, the team can only rely on this 27-year-old experienced forward on the front line, and this forward seems to lack a competitive mentality and investment in training. The degree can only be described by three days of fishing and two days of drying the net.

Gao Bo has an impression of this striker, but his positioning of Sam Parker is not a main striker, but as a substitute. With forwards of the level of Vardy and Charlie Austin, Sam Parker has never heard of such a previous life. The forwards I have heard of are naturally not competitive at all.

   But this Sam Parker is so lazy, it seems that he is not qualified to be a substitute...

   "Then don't care about him. When will his weight return to a normal level, when will he join the team training, otherwise let him keep training alone." Gao Bo doesn't care, just a substitute forward, irrelevant to the overall situation.

   Mel Donald was taken aback: "This...Sam Parker is a very good forward in the second division..."

   Gao Bo waved his hand, with a signature confident smile on his face: "Mel, Vardy and Charlie Austin are more than just second-tier forwards!!"

   Mel Donald obviously didn't believe it, but Gao Bo didn't explain anything. Instead, he asked with interest: "So if this Sam Parker is put in the transfer market, some teams still need it?"

  Mel Donald nodded: "In the second division, a striker at the level of Sam Parker has played in the first division. There will be many second division teams interested."

   "If we take him out for exchange, I want a tall, central defender with strong frontal defensive and air defense capabilities!" Gao Bo leaned forward. The more he thought about it, the more he felt that was the case.

These days he has successively observed many Luton players First of all, in the forward and midfield, there are four names such as Vardy, Charlie Austin, Dryinkwater and Kanter. Players, the main players in these four positions must be these players, and team captain Kevin Keane also has to occupy a left or right midfield position, plus center back George Parker, this A central defender who has fought in the British crown can also get a major position.

   In this way, a starting lineup requires at least two guards on both sides, a full back, a midfield player, and a strong goalkeeper.

There are quite a few candidates for the defender Luton on the left and right. After Gao Bo's observation over the past few days, there are at least a few qualified players at the level of the second division, and the situation in the midfield is also the same. In terms of position, there are currently two players who have the opportunity to compete for the main goalkeeper, 19-year-old Dean Polly, and 22-year-old Claude Rondo!

At the technical level, the attributes of the two men are similar. Gao Bo is more concerned about the 22-year-old Claude, because the goalkeeper is much more dedicated and hardworking than Dean Polly in training. .

What makes Gao Bo a little bit distressed is that Luton currently lacks a central defender with adequate air defense capabilities. Except for George Parker, the remaining central defenders in Luton are all players under the age of 20. Most of them are physically fit. Thin, it is difficult to withstand the impact of those tall center forwards in the league, so in the position of central defender, there must be a player who can provide rigidity in frontal defense!

   "Let the scout department look for people first, our training can't stop!"

   Gao Bo made the decision. He still has 100,000 pounds of transfer funds on hand. If Sam Parker is added to the transaction, he should be able to buy a qualified central defender.
