Football: The butcher in the midfield at the start, the magic bird stunned

Chapter 9 First Team First Training, Facing the Great Sage

Since Tottenham fired Pochettino in the middle of the league last season and hired Mourinho to take over the club, he did not have enough time to make adjustments to the team that met his expectations and needs when he took over halfway. Only got the sixth place in the league.

It wasn't until this summer window that Mourinho made a lot of personnel adjustments to the club, cleaned up a group of redundant players whose contracts had expired, and introduced Hoibel, Reggie Lon, Doherty, etc. He also signed the famous world wave background board Joe Hart to supplement the team's defensive lineup.

But the most dazzling of them is the superstar Gareth Bale who returned from loan from Real Madrid.

Including Chen Xiaoliang, the entire first team has 27 players.

Watching the other players arrive one after another, Chen Xiaoliang also ended his individual training and helped the coaches arrange the training props.

Use a good attitude to get familiar first.

Kane, Bell, Lloris, the faces that could only be looked up at in front of the screen, appeared beside Chen Xiaoliang at this moment, and became his teammates!

Fuck!These are undisputed big stars!
Those long-established players couldn't help being a little surprised when they saw a new guy in the team. Many people even asked Sun Xingmin if he was from his hometown in South Korea.

Chen Xiaoliang was speechless for a while.

With my big eyes, can Bangziguo find the second one?
Despite the psychological preparation, the training intensity of the first team was far beyond Chen Xiaoliang's imagination.

Just the switchback run used as a warm-up can make most ordinary people flinch.

However, Chen Xiaoliang is not afraid of overdrawing his physical strength. He understands that what he needs most now is to accumulate training time and increase his attribute points as soon as possible.

In order to shorten the recovery time of physical strength and increase his running ability on the field, he set the priority training direction on endurance and physique.

And those slag attributes less than 5 can be improved through the team's regular training.

Endurance determines how long you can run a race, and fitness determines how quickly you can recover from fatigue.

As long as these two attributes go up, the daily training time can gradually increase from 5 hours, and combined with the physical recovery card given by the task, wouldn't it be possible to train like a perpetual motion machine.

Thinking of this, Chen Xiaoliang gritted his teeth and followed the large army, even if he was dragged behind, he would never give up.

Fortunately, when the more intense physical training subjects started after several warm-ups, Chen Xiaoliang, who had participated in the game the day before, was grouped with the players who had just finished the national team training and returned to the club to report, and began to do restorative techniques train.

The first item is the practice of snatching circles.

This made Chen Xiaoliang very happy. What he was most worried about was the running-in of tactics and the training of passing and catching. His weaknesses would be fully exposed, but only the practice of robbing the ring could fully reveal his advantages.

A total of ten people including Bell, Hoibel, Olier, and Ndombele were divided into two groups. Eight people in the outer circle passed the ball and could only touch the ball with one foot. The two in the inner circle were responsible for grabbing the ball.

As long as the ball is grabbed halfway, the two who grab the ball will switch roles with the two who are passing and receiving the ball.

At first, this group of players didn't pay attention to the thin Chen Xiaoliang, and even deliberately reminded him when passing the ball to him, so as to avoid punishment if the ball was broken.

But after a few laps, even Chen Xiaoliang didn't expect that the whole training had become his own.

As long as the ball passes through his defensive area, it will be intercepted, and once the ball is intercepted, Chen Xiaoliang will be switched to the outer circle to pass the ball, and as long as someone passes the ball to him, it is not that he did not catch the ball in the end Steady cut, that is, the passed ball is crooked and slow to be cut, so he has to be replaced back to the inner circle.

Just like that, Chen Xiaoliang switched back and forth between the outer circle and the inner circle, making all the players look at each other in blank dismay.

Assistant coach Joao has never seen such a player. It's okay to pass and receive the ball with an amateur level, but he can intercept the pass and receive of his teammates like an amateur player by relying on fierce steals. Even a superstar like Bale is not immune.

Although Bell's state at this time is not as good as when he kicked the shocking barb in the Champions League final, his overall ability is still among the top in the world. Watching people pass the ball, they couldn't fool Chen Xiaoliang's defense.

However, Bell is the most famous one in the team, and he is also a legend of Tottenham. His teammates will pass the ball to him consciously or unconsciously. of two people.

Joao looked at Mourinho in surprise, but he nodded back with a confident smile.

An hour and a half later, the morning training was over. Although the lap grabbing was far less exhausting than the physical training, Chen Xiaoliang, who had practiced extra early in the morning, was already exhausted.

After everyone had lunch and relaxed, the offensive and defensive drills in the afternoon began again.

If warm-up and physical training are to strengthen the players' physical functions and mobilize the heat of the body, then confrontation training is the most important means for the head coach to implement his tactical intentions.

Not surprisingly, the main players were assigned to Team A, while the substitutes were assigned to Team B.

Team A center Kane, left winger Sun Xingmin, right winger Bell!

This frontcourt combination alone can make countless fans tremble with excitement!
It is no exaggeration to say that he is one of the strongest front tridents in the world!

As the name suggests, the offensive and defensive drills are to let the main force repeatedly practice offensive tactics to familiarize themselves with and strengthen their routines. Therefore, the task of team A at this time is to practice positional warfare and quick counterattacks, while team B is responsible for defense and counterattacks.

Without too much pressure to return to the defense, team A quickly formed a suppression in repeated attacks, and continuously broke through the gate of team B's defense.

At this time, Mourinho pouted at Joao, signaling for Chen Xiaoliang to play and participate in Team B's defense.

Joao was still hesitating. A 16-year-old kid had played the game the day before, and today he had practiced all morning. At this time, he didn't have the energy to deal with the violent attack of the main players.

But when he looked back and saw what happened to Chen Xiaoliang, the PAD in his hand almost fell to the ground.

Chen Xiaoliang, who was still as tired as a dead dog when he had lunch at noon, unexpectedly practiced aerobic vigorously on the grass next to him...

"Where did this kid get such abnormal physical strength?!"

He called Chen Xiaoliang and replaced Dele Alli, who had been ignored by Mourinho.

Before playing, Joao murmured a strategy for Chen Xiaoliang, but was interrupted by Mourinho before he finished speaking.

"Chen, I want you to defend Bell, can you do it?"

Chen Xiaoliang said "Oh", but he laughed in his heart.

"Can it be done? If I say it can't be done, can I not do it?"

The experience of snatching almost all of Bell's passes when he was robbing the circle just now undoubtedly gave him a lot of confidence in his defensive ability.

Ali walked down slowly, gave Chen Xiaoliang a pretend high-five as a gesture, and picked up a towel to wipe the sweat off his face with a slight displeasure.

Many people think that Mourinho let a 16-year-old child replace Ali, and he is deliberately stimulating Ali again.

The same drama has been staged in Inter Milan, Real Madrid, Chelsea, and Manchester United, but the ending is not the same.

Some people regard this kind of stimulation as an incentive, burst out with infinite fighting spirit, and finally follow this character coach wholeheartedly, willing to give everything for him.

Some people take it as a cruel humiliation, lose themselves under the pressure, and don't want to work with him for a day, even willing to deliberately lose the game and drive him away as soon as possible.

But Mourinho doesn't have so many ideas at this time, he is such a person who likes to unswervingly execute according to his own ideas.

He wanted to see with his own eyes, the boy from the Red Country who kept surprising him, what kind of chemical reaction he could have with this group of first-team players.
