Chapter 288 Pre-war Plan

As the European Cup is approaching, the League Cup matches are in full swing. When Alkmaar finishes the Dutch Cup semi-final, the Champions League quarter-final is about to begin.

On April 4, Alkmaar will face the challenge of La Liga giants Barcelona at his home court.

Barcelona is one of the few giant teams in the world. It is known as the dream team. It is absolutely glorious for Alkmaar Club to play against such a team at Dehoute Stadium, and even the residents of the whole Alkmaar town are proud of it.

In the week before the game, Alkmaar Mayor Luther. Mr. Bacchus mentioned the quarter-finals of Barcelona and Alkmaar in a TV interview. He said, "It is the pride of the whole Alkmaar to play the quarter-finals with Barcelona. Although our stadium is not big and the number of fans we can accommodate is limited, our fans are enthusiastic enough. He They will surprise Barcelona. Although I know that we are unlikely to advance, I still wish Jiang Mu and his team good luck in advance.

Although the battle between Alkmaar, a big dark horse, and Barcelona, is not as influential as Real Madrid and Manchester United, it has also attracted the attention of many fans and the media.

In order to watch the game, Alkmaar's fans have already made all the preparations, finishing the work ahead of schedule, advancing or withdrawing the reception, and temporarily canceling the travel holiday. Everything is to watch the game.

In the week before the war, the number of reporters and fans who came to Alkmaar to watch Alkmaar's training soared, almost all of them caught up with the number of fans in a league.

The media in the Netherlands and Spain have also made suggestions for their teams, looking for ways to defeat the enemy.

The Dutch Telegraph said: Although Alkmaar can't compete with a giant like Barcelona, Van Gaal's Barcelona is not without weaknesses. They emphasize that they use the width of the field to open the side road. They can't wait for a limited number of 11 people to fill every corner of the stadium. The formation is very open, Rival. Duo, Figo, Cruyvit, Enrique, Koko and so on are all piled up indiscriminately. If they cooperate, Alkmaar will be in danger. Jiang Mu should divide and surround these geniuses with strong personal attack ability and let them fight separately, so that Barcelona's combat effectiveness will be greatly reduced.

"International Football" believes that it is a miracle that Alkmaar can reach the quarterfinals. No matter how you play, you can make money. The DeHute Stadium is very small. If you want to win Baxa, you must put down the iron barrel array and use anti-reverse tactics to attack Barcelona's defensive line. No matter how powerful Barcelona's genius is, there is no room for a breakthrough, and there is nothing they can do. At this time, it doesn't matter. Compared with Alkmar and Barcelona, it's just shrimp, and it's not shameful to set up an iron barrel array. Jiang Mu has never done so.

Spain's "World Sports News" reminds Van Gaal to be careful of Alkmaar. Although Alkmaar has never met a real giant team before, Dortmund, Chelsea and Lazio are also strong teams in the world. They have suffered enough in the match with Alkmaar. In the league, Teams like Ajax, Eindhoven and Feyenoord can't restrain Alkmaar, which shows the fierceness of this team. Although Alkmaar's average age is very young, Van Gaal should know that there is no direct relationship between young age and combat effectiveness. His Ajax has won the Champions League, Van Gaal. If they can't control Alkmaar's rising demons such as Ronaldinho, Tomason and Drogba, they may bring big trouble to Barcelona.

The Daily Sports believes that Alkmaar is likely to send three extremely conservative lineups of defensive midfields. Because Barcelona's attack power is very strong and the player's personal ability is sudden, Alkmaar can't send people to keep an eye on it, and the regional defense may not be able to defend, so Shrinking the defense with three backs and then counterattacking is Alkmaar's best choice.

The Daily Sport suggested that Van Gardo practice the defense. In the league, Valencia's defense made Van Gaal suffer. Alkmaar's defensive counterattack is not inferior to Valencia. If Van Gaal can't think of a way to break the door early, it may really create a big surprise.

These statements of the reporters are just to coax the fans and add a little fun of watching the game, which is not helpful to the head coach and players. Jiang Mu and Van Gaal can't play the game as the reporter said. They not only rack their brains to restrain the opponent's original way of play, but also consider the possible changes of the opponent in this game. For them, the game is much more tiring than the game.

Jiang Mu paid much more attention to this game than all the original games. Although Chang'e No. 1 helped him, Jiang Mu still took a week to prepare, gave the collected information to Chang'e 1 for digestion, and then repeatedly deduced it in the game Magic Coach according to the results of the analysis.

Although Van Gaal's Barcelona is far less than the Dream II a few years later, let alone the Dream Three later, this has made Jiang Mu feel afraid.

Not to mention the way Barcelona has cultivated from the age of eight or nine, the Dutch team's playing style is very similar to that of Barcelona's. In terms of playing style, Jiang Mu is not afraid, but there are so many talented players in the opponent's camp that makes Jiang Mu the most headache. There are also many geniuses under him, but his geniuses are still Xiaoyao, far away. Unlike Barcelona's superstars, they have been cultivated into essence. With a flash of inspiration, they can change the course of the game.

During the repeated deductions in the game, Jiang Mu found that the victory or defeat has changed a lot, not as stable as when playing against a civilian team. This is because the personal ability of Barcelona's frontcourt players is very strong, and everyone can score goals with their personal ability when holding the ball, which greatly increases the uncertainty of the game. .

In order to reduce this uncertainty, Jiang Mu adopted a variety of forms such as man-to-man defense, regional defense, and regional man-to-man defense. He has also considered the problems mentioned by the media, but in the end he could not solve this problem. Jiang Mu finally gave up this futile method. Football is an extremely accidental ratio. Sai, this doesn't change because I have Chang'e-1. He decided to find another way not to suppress the performance of the talented players in Barcelona's frontcourt, but to control Barcelona's midfield and backfield, that is, Guardiola in position 4. This is a key figure from defense to attack. He struffed him to death, and the person who sent shells forward was gone.

Moreover, Van Gaal's style of play is very risky. Generally, he adopts a single back. Harvey is a substitute for Guardiola. The two people are out of the field instead of playing together. Just staring at Guardiola is a genius, which is much safer and more reliable than so many geniuses staring at the front court.

After Jiang Mu adopted the tactic of letting Gattuso keep an eye on Guardiola of Barcelona, he commanded Alkmaer's probability of winning against Barcelona in the game, once reaching more than 50%, which made Jiang Mu very satisfied. At home, the opponent had a lot of inconveniences. If you can play 50% of the winning probability with Barcelona in computer games, you are more likely to win in reality.

However, for players such as Rivaldo, Figo and Cruyvette, Jiang Mu is still not relaxed. It is necessary to stare at people in the state of the ball. It is simply difficult for these players to play freely. Jiang Mu will definitely not do such a stupid thing.

Although Van Gaal holds a good pair of cards and his big names are like superstars, he also has a headache. The first is that there are too many superstars and disobedient. Rivaldo is the core of the team's frontcourt, but he doesn't like the left wing position arranged for him by Van Gaal and wants to play in the middle. But Rivaldo went to the middle, and where did Cruyvit go? Rivaldo could be on the middle, but Cruyvit could only play the center. After he won the World Footballer of the Year, Rivaldo's attitude became more resolute. Van Gaal had to talk to Rivaldo repeatedly in every important game, which made Van Gaal very distressed.

In addition to the superstars who are full of personality and often question the head coach's arrangement, the contradictions within the Barcelona club also expose Van Gaal to the danger of fire in the backyard. In the second half of the league, Spanish fans began to cheer for the Dutch players in Barcelona. Once Barcelona's game failed, the fans and the media pushed the blame on the Dutch Gang. Later, even if Barcelona won, if the players of the Dutch Gang made a mistake in the game, they would also encounter the boos of Barcelona fans. This makes the players of the Dutch Gang very distressed, and some people are already tired of it. Because no one wants to play football in the boos of their fans.

Van Gaal knows who is playing tricks, but he can't do anything about it, because this is a contradiction between the club president Núñez and his opponent Laburta. La Burta wants to be the president. He uses the Catalan independence of Barcelona fans to attack the large number of Dutch players that Van Gaal has attracted, and Van Gaal attracts This large number of Dutch players did not play well, which is also one of the reasons for the criticism of Barcelona fans and reporters.

In addition to these own reasons, Fan Gar is also very afraid of Jiang Mu. He is an arrogant and stubborn person, but he is by no means a stupid person. He has been paying attention to Jiang Mu's success. From Jiang Mu's platoon, on-the-spot command, and the player who has been bought, he knows that this is not a simple guy. Before signing, he had always wanted to avoid Alkmaar, but unfortunately they still drew together.

Although Alkmaar's strength is worse than that of Barcelona, Van Gaal feels that Jiang Mu will not set up an iron barrel array. Alkmaar has defeated his opponent in many games, which shows that Alkmaar's ability to attack is very strong. Jiang Mu will not give up his martial arts and give up the attack and put down the iron barrel array.

Van Garr is sure that Alkmaar is fighting against the counterattack, but even if it is against the counterattack, Jiang Mu will not be a passive counterattack. The troops invested in the counterattack will never be small, and the interception in the midfield will never be weak. This is Valencia's way. Although Barcelona was beaten by Valencia in the league, Van Gaal admits that Because he will not give Jiang Mu this opportunity in the Champions League, he has found a way to deal with the Valencia-style defensive counterattack.
