Ace Manager of the Green Field

The new Wembley Stadium can accommodate 90,000 spectators. If it weren’t because the League Cup final was a match between Liverpool and Manchester City, I am afraid this stadium will not be able to fill up today.

The much-anticipated game is about to start, and when the two team starters entered the field, Situ Yunbing saw Manchester City's starting lineup suddenly showing a dignified color.

Because something unexpected.

"Good evening, everyone, welcome to the 2015-2016 England League Cup final!

The two teams that reached the final this year were Liverpool and Manchester City.

It can be said that this is a pinnacle of football in England!

Liverpool have established a terrible lead in the league. The only other players that can compete are the League Cup and the FA Cup. Now, Liverpool are likely to not miss the local cup, and their League Cup broke into the final. , FA Cup reached the quarterfinals.

Let us first look at the starting lineup of the two teams.

Liverpool did their best today, sending the strongest lineup, formation 433.

Goalkeeper: Ter Stegen.

Guards: Azpilicueta, Van Dijk, Coulibaly, Robertson.

Midfielders: Kanter, Eriksson, Casemiro.

Forwards: Gareth Bell, Lewandowski, Coutinho.

Manchester City's starting lineup today is also 433.

Goalkeeper: Caballero.

Defenders: Sania, Compagni, Otamendi, Clichy.

Midfielders: Fernando, Yaya Toure, Fernandinho.

Forwards: De Braun, Aguero, Silva.

What is more surprising is that today Pellegrini placed both Sterling and Mahrez on the bench.

Although it is undeniable that De Braune and Silva are very strong stars, they are not strong in the wing assault. That is to say, Manchester City’s starting lineup may pay more attention to defense and control, and the offensive speed is only Can rely on the pass to advance.

In any case, Pellegrini's starting lineup may be able to cause some trouble for Liverpool, let's take a look at this dragon fight!"

It seems that Pellegrini is in a formation with a three-pointer midfielder, but Yaya Toure must be unwilling to kill the frontcourt.

Manchester City's platoon formation not only reflects the strengthening of defense, but also focuses on the improvement of ball rights. Only in this way, their role of terminator is relatively small.

Situ Yunbing did not read the mind, so Pellegrini had no way of knowing how to formulate a battle plan. He could only observe it through the game.

There is no doubt that Pellegrini has changed from the idea of ​​playing Manchester City's own strong point to restricting Liverpool as a starting point for tactical design.

With the huge noise from the fans of the two teams, the referee blew the whistle at the beginning of the game.

Manchester City took the lead in kick-off and acted very cautiously after the opening.

Behind Aguero is the inverted triangle system. De Braun, Silva, and Yaya Toure are the core. The other two midfielders and the full-backs come forward to respond. Manchester City's ball control is very stable!

Situ Yunbing suddenly had a ridiculous idea.

Pellegrini seems to be able to control the ball skillfully and strongly under the guidance of Manchester City to prove his guidance, taking the initiative in the scene!

Everyone knows that Guardiola is the best at this, but Manchester City played Liverpool today but also played the game.

But the problem is coming, Manchester City only controls the field but less breakthroughs!

On the basis of the control of the field, two full-time defensive midfielders, Fernando and Fernandinho, will cause a lack of offensive resources and a waste of personnel. In the final analysis, it is still lack of confidence.

Not only want to control the field, but also worry that the defense line will collapse!

When Liverpool strikers and front midfielders quickly attacked the frontcourt to counterattack, Manchester City also had to speed up, and then the shortcomings in the configuration became apparent.

When they launched a threatening offensive forward, Aguero's goal was too swaggering, directly stared to death by Liverpool defenders, and then the attacking point that could bring impact was almost only Yayature,

When Yaya Toure just stopped the ball at the front of the penalty area, he was hit by Canter and Casemiro. If at this time a Manchester City midfielder could follow him, maybe the offense could spawn a new attack. The change, but unfortunately both midfielders are watching around the midfield, it is obvious that the team was afraid to be counterattacked by Liverpool after losing the ball!

For a long time, Manchester City is still a paper tiger!

Situ Yunbing smirked in his heart that Manchester City today is much stronger than Manchester City's defense when he last played Liverpool!

After all, their defense is not Demichelis, but Captain Compagni!

Pellegrini's tactical design seems to have many areas of conflict!

Yaya Toure missed a long-range shot and was intercepted by Casemiro.

However, Manchester City do not have to panic. Liverpool's counterattack is also a bit difficult. Manchester City's frontcourt anti-robbing harassment forced Liverpool to quickly attack the frontcourt. Then their tight defense in the backcourt also contained Liverpool's offensive threat.

After Coutinho sent Lewandowski a diagonal plug, Compani finished the interception for the first time.

Liverpool's offense was frustrated.

The two teams played back and forth again and again, making both coaches feel a bit offensive.

Manchester City can guarantee a smooth offensive organization, but the offense finally hits the front line but there is no threat. Liverpool is easy to fall into the frontcourt. The strength of the two full-time defensive midfielders of Manchester City in the confrontation has restricted Eri to a certain extent. Xenson's play, Gareth Bale's flank outburst was effective, but it was still a bit short of making a break.

The situation is stalemate, offensive and defensive deadlock.

Even the audience can see that the current scene is in a deadlock that embarrassed both teams. If the game needs a turning point, it will inevitably require the party to make a great breakthrough and change!

After 25 minutes of the game, Situ Yunbing, who kept his hands in his pockets and his eyes calm, suddenly took the opportunity of a dead ball to make gestures to the disciples on the field and let them change the style of play!

The past 25 minutes of competition also made Liverpool public realize that in this level of competition, they are not unstoppable, and still need Situ Yunbing to give them instructions when they are on the sidelines.

Basically, 80% of Liverpool's opponents do not need to worry too much about Situ Yunbing. The team's own adjustment ability is enough to adapt, but in the face of some strong teams, the coach's on-the-spot command will be very important.

After Liverpool's adjustment by Situ Yunbing, the most significant change is that the two full-backs assisted and killed the frontcourt together!

Although Manchester City looks like a 433 formation, in fact at least one of De Braune and Silva will be very close to the middle road, so that they can better connect with their teammates and play the advantage of transmission and control technology. Sometimes even two People are close to the middle road to form a direct cooperation.

So the sideline threat in Manchester City's offense itself is very limited. Secondly, in order to break the deadlock on the field, Liverpool must make full use of the width of the field. Nothing can achieve this tactical effect than the full-back attack.

In the end, the full-back participation in the offense is just the most noticeable change. The real change in Liverpool is the change in the overall tactical posture!

In the 27th minute of the game, after Robertson received a pass from Kanter on the left in the frontcourt, he quickly pushed the offensive forward. When Coutinho ran across the left zone before the penalty area, Robertson suddenly was in Sanya Pass the ball diagonally in front of the bottom line of the left rib of the penalty area.

Kompany chased Lewandowski, who ran to take the initiative. Unexpectedly, Lewandowski knocked the ball back without turning his head.

Coutinho should be put in place before the move, but Fernando also returned to the penalty area, which made Coutinho to be destroyed by Fernando when he was ready to take advantage of the situation.

The football rolled to goalkeeper Caballero, who made a big goal for the ball!

The football flew towards the central zone.

Aguero was looking back at the football that was falling in front of him, but found that someone behind him was fighting against each other. He tried his best to lower the center of gravity, but he didn't expect the person behind him to pull back. Aguero sat on the ground!

The Red Army fans in the stands couldn't help laughing.

Aguero got up and looked back, as expected, Van Dijk!

If it wasn't for his position, Van Dijk had the opportunity to head the ball directly, but since Aguero had to focus on fighting against him, Van Dijk unexpectedly made him lose his balance.

The back chase controlled the football that bounced twice, and Van Dijk quickly passed the ball to Casemiro who withdrew.

Liverpool's offensive continued.

Pellegrini looked serious at this time, and Liverpool's tactical changes were obvious.

Overall pressure, high position to snatch!

Only in this way can Liverpool hope to break through Manchester City's defense!

In this championship decisive battle, if Pellegrini can deploy with Liverpool before the game, then from the on-site scheduling of the game, the first step to take a positive step is Situ Yunbing!

Whether this change will make Manchester City passive will be unknown.

Liverpool continued to attack. After the offense moved to the right, Azpilicueta quickly inserted the ball and dribble forward, Fernandinho quickly assisted the side, Yayatore also withdrew to defend. .

Azpilicueta knocked the ball across to Fernandinho when he hit the ball to Eriksson, who ran the ball when Yayatore blocked the front pass Diagonal pass to the front right.

Gareth Bale took the lead to retreat from the sideline. When Clichy followed and was about to make a snatch, Gareth Bale slammed the ball to the bottom line. At the same time, he exploded with acceleration and quickly dropped Clichy away. Before he attacked, Fernandinho was able to quickly return to the rib of the restricted area, but this time without Fernandinho!

Gareth Bell turned to the penalty area before the bottom line!

For a time, the Manchester City line of defense blew up!
