Chapter 490 The Role of a Man 2

"After Wenger, it's Joel!"

The next day, the Suns reported this round of the game with such a headline. What Joel said after the press conference greatly praised Don Jack. In similar words, in the last round of the league, Arsenal coach Wenger also said that Wenger affirmed the decisive importance of Don Jack to a team. Two days later, Tottenham Hotspur is the main The handsome Joel also admitted it.

The affirmation of the two world-famous coaches has improved Don Jack's reputation.

No player has been recognized like this in history.

Once, Maradona was the best player in the 1980s. At that time, many coaches, media and fans knew that Maradona was the best football player in the world. When Maradona was still in the Argentine Boca youth team, this news was already well known.

So Maradona was able to transfer to Barcelona with the world's highest value at that time - $8 million, and then led Argentina to win the World Cup. He was a unique genius in the 1980s, and his perfect creativity was praised by the world's media.

And Jack Don is also praised by the world's media, and his evaluation is even higher than that of Maradona.

"All he lacks is a Hercules cup!"

If you want to become a player who has left a strong mark in history, the Hercules Cup is indispensable. Every world-renowned player has an endless topic about this trophy, and what Jack Don currently lacks is such a trophy decorated with honors.

When it comes to this topic, the English media is very happy!

The important thing is that although it has not been officially confirmed, it is an undisputable fact that Don Jack will join the England team. If Don Jack wins the Hercules Cup, it is equivalent to the England team winning the Hercules Cup. This is an English team that has only won the Hercules Cup once and has been weak in world events in recent decades. What good news.

Before Don Jack, the English did not dare to expect the Hercules Cup, but Don Jack joined the England team, which made many fans have this idea.

The English media vigorously discussed the performance of England in the German World Cup, as well as the analysis of the strong England team's lineup and strength, possible opponents, etc. At the same time, other countries are also discussing, especially those countries with strong teams, such as Germany, Brazil and Italy, which have the strength to win. The national media of the championship disdains the "exluxe" of the English.

"England has never been a world strong team, but their lineup has always been one of the most luxurious in the world."

The Milan Sport is so sarcastic about England: "In the 1990s, England had Alan. Shearer, they still had David in two thousand years. Beckham, Michael. Owen, followed by Rooney, Gerrard, Lampard and a series of the best players in the world.

"However, under such a lineup, the England team's performance has not been good. The reason is the English football style, not the player's strength. Even Jack. Lee joined the England team, and they just had one more star and more supporters, that's all.

The statement of La Gazzetta dello Sport is a little one-sided, but it is true that the England team has never had a lack of stars. All the players in the team can rank in the top three in the world every time, but the results have been bad, which may be similar to the reason why Arsenal has not been good in the Champions League, that is, the whole team's In terms of style, this century-old style is really not suitable for the world's competition.

England was defeated by technical teams such as Brazil and Argentina!

Not to mention the above two technical teams, such as Spain and Italy, which have strong overall tactical strength, the England team is also very difficult to play. It can be said that the England team is not weak in the players, but in the overall style of the team.

It's hard to change this style, but it's not enough to change the coach.

Coach Eriksson has been working hard to change his style in the England team for several years, but it doesn't play a big role. The main reason is that the national team players will only gather to the national team when there is a game. There is not much training time together in a year. They have adapted to the club's training ring. It is almost impossible to adapt to the tactical environment of the national team in a short period of time.

Most of the average English players are physically strong, but they are technically ordinary guys. These players are famous, but their real technical strength is not as good as the world level.

For example, a striker like Rooney is strong and has good personal skills, but in the tactical system, Rooney can only act as a single striker or a shadow striker. He will not be a qualified passer. In the team's tactics, he can only act as the player with the last shot.

Is Rooney famous? Isn't it strong?

Players like Rooney gathered together, and Erickson was really busy. That's why Michael, who was often injured and performed poorly last season. Owen can still occupy the main position on the English front line because Owen's tactical awareness is much stronger than that of ordinary English players. He can adapt to the exchange of various tactics and his personal technical strength is very strong.

In this way, when Don Jack joins the England team, it is impossible to change the overall style of the England team. It is said that he has one more star when he enters the team, and there are still many fans who support it.

But how it is specific depends on the real situation.

There are optimistic and pessimistic media for Don Jack's joining, but for now, Don Jack himself has not considered it at all. He is playing Middlesbrough with the team at St. James's Park.

In the last summer, the English media still spoke highly of Middlesbrough. McLaren's team has steadily improved in recent years, winning the first important tournament trophy in the club's history in 2004, and has continued to hit the European arena since then. Their performance improvement is obvious, and McLaren's coaching ability is recognized by English fans.

In this season, McLaren is still strengthening the front line, introducing Portsmouth's Yakub at a price of 7.5 million. In this way, he will no longer worry about Hassel Banck's age and Viduka's injuries. With the return of Makarone (return on loan) and Christie (healing), Miburg's front line has been Initially, it has the level to compete with the strong team.

Such a strengthening makes the media even more optimistic.

It's a pity that McLaren's Middlesbrough performance this season is not very good. So far, they have played five wins, six draws and eight losses in 20 games, and directly ranked in the lower reaches of the Premier League. This result is not to mention hitting the European League. If they don't play well in the second half, they may have to work hard for relegation.

Every game after

is not very important to Miburg.

As long as they can avoid relegation, they don't have the capital to get better results, so now Mibao doesn't seem to have any fighting spirit. There is much less news about Mibao's report. With a balanced mentality, Mibao's recent performance has been quite good.

Now McLaren's team is playing at St. James' Park.

For Newcastle United, it is good news that Dayle's injury is coming back in this game, but Dayle still sits on the bench. The long-term injury has made it impossible for Dayle to adapt to the game quickly. Sonness plans to let Dayle play in the second half to adapt.

In addition, Shearer also returned to the lineup.

In this way, Ameoby, who performed well, could only play at the front guard. Don Jack returned to the midfield, and the young player Zogbia sat on the bench. Such a lineup is the best lineup from Newcastle United at present.

In this game, Middlesbrough performed well in the first half. At halftime, Middlesbrough and Newcastle United drew bis2, which was unexpected by many people. Some fans also re-examined Middlesbrough. So far, the team that can draw with Newcastle United in the half-time. Not much.

McLaren is also very satisfied with the first half. He is one of England's most famous local coaches and very young. Many people say that McLaren is the most promising English coach, but this season is his downfall, which is a difficult test for young McLaren.

"Pay more attention to the position of your teammates!"

In the locker room, Don Jack is instilling the basic common sense of professional players in Zogbia. Everyone knows these aspects that need to be paid attention to on the court, but what may have become stars.

However, Zogbia listened very seriously. Don Jack is different from the average coach. Young players will be a little bored with what the average coach said, and how can the average coach's level catch up with the big star he has fought on the court?

This kind of conversation between the two has become an indispensable part of Newcastle United's halftime break. Some other players also listen to it, as well as boring people who refute Don Jack's words, such as Taylor. Jack Don just finished a question that needs to be paid attention to on the court. Taylor said carelessly, "How can that be done, I You have to make up the border road on the field!"

"So you can't be a star." Brab retorted.

Taylor said, "That's just the reason why there is no chance!" God often says that when the opportunity comes, everything will be available. If there is no chance, it is useless to work hard.

"Did God say that?"

"I saw it in the Bible."

"Is that the Bible you wrote?"

.....

After a quarrel, it was almost halfway through the break. Jack Don looked at Taylor and felt that there was nothing he could do. This guy couldn't get in, and he didn't pursue anything. He really loved football, but he only regarded it as love and would not work hard to pursue anything.

However, Taylor's dressing room will always be much more lively, which is worth affirming.

Perhaps this is why Soness brings Taylor with him every time. Even if this guy doesn't play, he still has his own role.

The atmosphere in the locker room is good, but this does not mean that the team will definitely play well, and the second half of Middlesbrough can be said to be a lesson for Newcastle United players.

No one expected that Newcastle United, which had won three consecutive victories at Christmas, was scored two goals in a row by McLaren's team at the beginning of the second half.

With two goals behind, Don Jack took the team to launch a big attack, but at this time, Middlesbrough, who won the surprise attack, began to stabilize the defense and scored a goal again by counterattack in the 71st minute of the game. Although Don Jack scored a hat-trick in the second half, Newcastle United lost to Middlesbrough at home.

Four to five, this score made the whole Newcastle United team look depressed.

In the four Christmas games, Newcastle United won the first three difficult opponents, but lost to a slightly weaker team in the end, which made many media lose their glasses.

Perhaps what is happy is Chelsea. After the game, Newcastle United is three points behind Chelsea. Chelsea coach Mourinho did not talk about their game at all, but about Newcastle United: "Their backcourt lineup is too poor, and after Christmas, they have begun to show fatigue. But we have to continue to work hard and try to take the opportunity to pull down some points as soon as possible.

Mourinho's view is the same as that of many "experts". In the newspaper the next day, many media analyzed the game, believing that Newcastle United's lineup dragged down the results and was scored five goals by the opponent at home, which illustrates this situation: Newcastle United's backcourt bench is too shallow!

"Jack is just a football player, not God!"

The Sun analyzed the reason for the loss, especially mentioning Don Jack's hat-trick: "In the match with Middlesbrough, Jack scored a hat-trick again, but this could not help Newcastle United change the situation. In the end, they lost at home. This is the time since Don Jack came to Newcastle United, he participated in In the game, I lost the first game." Jack's performance was perfect, but Newcastle United's backcourt was too weak. Losing to Middlesbrough is a lesson for Newcastle United. Sones should focus more on the backcourt rather than the frontcourt. Now Newcastle United is still a long way from winning the championship.

Indeed, losing is bad news for Newcastle United, but coach Sones doesn't think it's because of the team's lineup and strength, but more because of the players' mentality. At the club's regular press conference the next day, Sones said, "We are careless! Around Christmas, we defeated Chelsea, Manchester United, Liverpool, Tottenham Hotspur, Arsenal and other teams, which made many players think that we were the strongest team in the Premier League. Before the game, there was a problem with the mentality of the players, which showed that the team was still immature. I hope the young guys can learn this lesson and welcome it with a peaceful mind. Follow the next game."

Sones's words are the same as Don Jack thought. He feels that the team is not strong, lineup and other problems at present. He is now very confident in himself, which comes from continuous victories, defeating the strong team with a weak attitude, and letting Don Jack know more about his strength.

In Don Jack's opinion, the other lineups of Newcastle United can fully challenge the European giants, but now they have lost in the face of Middlesbrough, which is the problem of the team's performance.

In terms of their own strength, Newcastle United has not been strong, but they have been winning because of their performance and other players are also working hard. In the last game against Middlesbrough, they worked hard for a long time in the first half and only scored one goal. The other goal came from Hiller's feet. In the second half Two goals have been scored, all of which rely on personal strength. That is to say, in terms of breaking through the opponent's goal, the contribution of other players is too small, and all of them are their own goals, which may be happy for others, but from this point it is obvious that other players' performance is not good. In the previous games, since The number of goals scored is similar to that of other players.

"We should adjust our mentality!"

Before the next game, Sonnes asked everyone to forget the game against Middlesbrough and wholeheartedly welcome the next game against Blackburn.

For other teams, the close Christmas tournament is over, but Newcastle United has to play a make-up match with Blackburn, which is a challenge to the team's current situation.
