Chapter 290 Strange Soldier Butch Array
When Barcelona arrived in Alkmaar on April 3, it caused a riot, which was mainly caused by Barcelona's assistant coach Mourinho.
Things have to go back to the war of words. Mourinho attacked Jiang Mu. Jiang Mu did not fight back, but Jiang Mu's fans quit. How could they tolerate Mourinho, a small assistant coach, to humiliate their idol? So when Mourinho and Van Gaal got off the plane at Amsterdam International Airport, About hundreds of Jiang Mu's irons blocked Mourinho from cursing, and Mourinho rudely raised his middle finger to fight back.
Mourinho's behavior aroused the anger of the fans. Many fans threw water bottles, coins, newspapers and other sundries at Mourinho. Van Gaal also suffered from the pool. Barcelona's players protected Mourinho and Van Gaal and almost had a group fight with the fans. In the end, Barcelona's players had to be security guarded at the airport. Under the protection, I left the airport and rushed to the hotel.
After arriving at the hotel, Van Gaal, who was shocked, held a press conference to bombard Jiang Mu. He thought that this kind of thing was related to Jiang Mu. Even if it was not ordered by Jiang Mu, at least Alkmaar Club did not restrain his fans, which caused such a thing.
Then Alkmamar's club manager Sherringia also responded to this. She claimed that the club could not restrain the specific actions of the fans. What they want to do is the freedom of the fans. If Barcelona wants to reduce a little trouble, please restrain your behavior.
Van Gaal also knows that the club does not have a good way for the fans, and even if there is, the club will not prohibit fans from harassing the visiting team. What he can do is to let the players spend less time out and try not to go out, so as to avoid friction with Alkmaar's fans.
In the afternoon, when adapting to the field, the fans attacked Mourinho and Barcelona's players with sundries again. However, this time, the security guard of Alkmaar Club intervened in time and did not let the fans succeed. However, the players of Barcelona also lost interest in adapting to the field under the interference, and they came back to the hotel after training.
In the evening, the other two Champions League quarter-finals kicked off. Porto, who played at home, drew 1:1 with the powerful Bayern Munich. The only regret was to give Bayern an away goal, which was very unfavorable for Porto, because they had to score away.
In another big collision between the giants, Real Madrid at home is still in a downturn. They were tied by Manchester United at 0:0 at home. In addition to the scene and results, the only thing that gratified Real Madrid fans was that they did not give their opponents an away goal. This weak advantage may make them play away. Be more proactive.
Porto played tenaciously at home and almost overturned the powerful Bayern. It was not until 80 minutes that Bayern used Porto's mistake to equalize the score.
This made Barcelona's generals vigilant, because Alkmaar is also at home, and his combat effectiveness is stronger than that of Porto. Barcelona is worried about being blown away by his opponents. After watching the live broadcast of the UEFA Champions League, Van Gaal immediately called a coaching team for a meeting to discuss the next day's game.
Mourinho still did not give up to repeat his suggestion. He thought that Van Gaal had little problem with the starting lineup, but the tactics formulated were too problematic. Among the three people in the midfield, Enrique and Kocu lived on both sides of Guardiola, forming a triangular position, but the main task of the two was to attack, and Not defense. The offensive and defensive transformation is all in Guardiola alone. Mourinho believes that Enrique and Kocu have at least one parallel position with Guardiola, forming a double back waist is the safest.
Van Gaal rejected Mourinho's suggestion again. He thought it was too conservative. It was a waste to play a team like Alkmaar with a double back, and he had already said at a press conference that if he wanted to fight against Alkmaar, how could he He went back on his terms and adopted conservative tactics.
Mourinho was a little frustrated by Van Garr's stubbornness. He felt that although Van Garr had taught him a lot of things, there were still many things that others could not teach, such as his experience as a head coach, so Mourinho had the idea of leaving Barcelona.
The next morning, the town of Alkmaar was overcrowded. A large number of fans rushed to every street crazily. They had small flags holding Alkmaar, Barcelona scarves around their necks, Alkmaar jerseys of different numbers, and banners supporting Barcelona. Some fans speak the languages of different countries, making Alkmaar an international metropolis overnight.
After the last time to adapt to the venue in the afternoon, the atmosphere of the game became stronger and stronger, and the fans gradually began to move closer to the direction of Dehout Stadium.
Although the tickets given by Dehout Stadium are too limited, these fans are still willing to find a bar near the stadium or watch the game in front of the big screen in the open air.
Although this is only a quarter-final, the shock to Alkmaar is even comparable to winning the league championship. Alkmaar and even Dutch football and business celebrities have come to the stadium to watch the game.
Ten minutes before the start of the game, Mr. Barks, the mayor of Alkmaar, accompanied the Dutch ambassador Tan evenly to the stadium, and they were accompanied by the cold and unparalleled oriental translator. The combination of mayors, ambassadors and beautiful women was warmly welcomed by fans, and the reporter's camera shots were pulled here from time to time and spread all over the world.
Then Alkmaar and Barcelona's club presidents Dirk and Núñez also came to the stadium, but it did not cause much reaction from the fans, because at this time the players also began to enter the field, and the fans' attention was focused on the superstars.
"... Let's take a look at Barcelona's lineup: goalkeeper Baia, left-back: Sergi centre-back: Frank de Pol Aberado right-back: Retzger left midfielder: Cocu midfielder: Guardiola right midfielder: Enrique left winger: Rivaldo center: Cruyvette right winger: Figo, this is a classic Type 433 reminds us of the Ajax in 1995... Rivaldo finally appeared in the left wing. This is the result of the discussion between Van Gaal and Rivaldo's agent Mingria. Although I don't know whether Rivaldo is happy or not, there is Cruyvit in the center, Van Garr At least I feel at ease...
... On the two sides, with the superb dragging skills and deterrence of Rivaldo and Figo, they can involve a considerable number of each other's troops to the left or right, thus creating a gap for the full-time center of the middle center Kruivit and the habitual insertion of Enrique and Koku. Compared with Figo's walk to the end in the right corridor, Rivaldo is almost at the bottom on the left side of Barcelona. He is not a side striker, and he does not have the starting speed and cross foot method that the winger should have at all. Van Garr puts Rivaldo's position on the left to involve the opponent's troops, and he leans in the middle as soon as he has the opportunity, or uses himself. His personal ability threatens the opposing player, leaving the sideline gap to the left-back Sergi. Sergi has a strong ability to assist and can completely replace Rivaldo to complete the winger's job..."
"... Let's take a look at Alkmaar's starting lineup, goalkeeper Cesar, left-back Riese, central defender Lucio and Ismail, right-back Kloncamp, three midfielders eng and Gattuso, Van Bommel, left winger Ronaldinho, right winger Kuyt, Center Klose... This is a three-back formation similar to 433, but considering Rivaldo's strength, Kuite's defense may be bigger. Alkmaar's offensive focus should be on the left. Ronaldo and Riser will use their speed to focus on the back of Figo... However, the center's position is sent. Rose, not Tomasson and Drogba, this is a very strange start. What did Jiang Mu think about Klose's appearance instead of scoring more goals. What about Tomasson and Drogba, who have been playing the main force? What's more strange is that Van Bomel's position seems to be more than Enge and Gattuso. What does Jiang Mu mean? Do you want Van Bomer to hit the waist?"
Another commentator, Matthews, said: "Klose and Tomasson, his header is better, the dribbling is more flexible, and the ability to score the ball. Klose and Drogba are more accurate in shooting and running more elegant. I don't know whether Jiang Mu wants to play three midfielders or Van Bomel to play the front midfielder, but it seems that Jiang Mu is going to let Klose and Van Bomel control the midfield together and cooperate near Barcelona's penalty area. With Ronaldinho's clamping on the side, Barcelona's middle should not have too strong strength to defend, but Van Bomei Are you qualified to be the front waist? He has never played in this position..."
Not only was the commentator confused, but even Van Gaal stood on the sidelines with a blank face. He turned his head to the gloomy assistant coach Mourinho and said, "Jose, can you see what his intention is to start like this?"
Mourinho frowned, shook his head and nodded. It could be seen that he was also confused, but in the end, Mourinho said firmly, "I think he wants Van Bomel to harass Guardiola, not the waist, but I don't understand Klose's starting line-up. In my opinion, this Klose's characteristics are not as good as that. Marson and Drogba are clear. If it were me, I would definitely not use him to start..."
Van Gaal sneered and ignored it. He felt that Mourinho was a little embarrassed, and his mind was spinning on harassing Guardiola. Let the front waist harass the back waist. What kind of god can do it? Unless his brain is flooded, it's nonsense.
Alkmaar's starting lineup and the position of the players have also aroused the discussion of fans. They have been paying attention to a team for a long time, making the fans half an expert. They are also confused about Jiang Mu's starting line-up and don't know what he wants to do.
After the players exchanged the team's flag and took a group photo, with the whistle of referee Swede Frix, the commentators, fans and Van Gaal finally understood the reason for Jiang Mu's arrangement of this game.
