"I want to win this game."
At the pre-match preparation meeting in Hamburg, Pan Yi said very clearly.
All the coaches and players stared at Pan Yi and nodded gently.
Long before the press conference was held, Pan Yi told them that his speeches at the press conference were all deliberately weak in order to confuse his opponents.
Bayern is currently gaining momentum, but Hamburg is not in form. Everyone is optimistic about Bayern.
Pan Yi wants to use this kind of public opinion to minimize the other party's vigilance against him, so that he can maximize the effect of his targeted tactics.
"But one thing I said at the press conference is true. That is, tactics are dead, but people are alive. No matter how exquisitely designed the tactics are, they are useless without strong executors."
"The same set of tactics has completely different effects when dealing with enemies of different levels. And the stronger the opponent, the more and bigger the problems we will expose ourselves. The easier it is for the enemy to seize these problems and then give us A fatal blow."
"Because Bayern is very strong, this will be a very, very difficult battle. You must be mentally prepared. It can be said that it may be the most difficult battle that everyone here has experienced in their careers. A game..."
Pan Yi knows that Bayern in the 2012-2013 season is also one of the strongest teams in history.
In his previous life, Bayern won five trophies and displayed unparalleled dominance in almost every competition.
It can be said that after the halo of Barcelona's dream third team Cosmos gradually faded, this perfect Bayern successfully took over and became the new Cosmos team.
When facing such a Cosmos team, even if Pan Yi is leading last season's AC Milan, to be honest, there is no guarantee of victory.
But now that he has Hamburg, the gap is even greater.
But Pan Yi is Pan Yi after all.
He just wants to challenge the impossible!
Hamburg have been in average form recently and they need a good game to boost their morale.
And playing Bayern, even if you lose, as long as you can kick out the content, it will be psychologically helpful to the young people.
Of course, in front of the players, he just wants to express his belief in winning.
"Football is round and we can win!"
When Pan Yi said this, his tone was very determined.
If it were someone else, the players might not believe it.
But now it was Pan Yi who said these words. The players who had completely trusted him and were willing to fight for him nodded one after another, with determined eyes on their faces.
"I also reminded everyone just now that Bayern is very strong. Therefore, if we want to win, we must use our strengths and avoid weaknesses and bring out our own characteristics."
"I have asked the coaches to assign the specific overall tactics for you to practice a few days ago, so I won't go into details here. What I want to emphasize today is the mentality."
"Every game can go a different way, especially against a strong team like Bayern, and that can go against us."
"We may concede the first goal, or even two first, or some other situation. But no matter what the situation is, we must stabilize our position, calm down our emotions, and stay calm. Go into the game with sanity."
"Don't be like some players who get anxious when they lose and then apply for red and yellow cards to be dismissed - I'm not talking about Xhaka here."
Everyone laughed.
"Of course, the so-called calmness and rationality don't just mean not receiving red or yellow cards. You must also look at difficulties with a calm mind, solve problems with a rational attitude, and ultimately make the game develop in a direction that is beneficial to us."
"Most of our players are young, and this is the process of accumulating experience. When everyone has enough experience, we can ensure that we can handle any changes in the game with ease."
"The last thing I want to say is that I really want to win this game. But if I really can't win, don't be too frustrated. It's not the end of the world."
"Bayern is the strongest team in the Bundesliga. They haven't even had a draw. They have also maintained a 100% victory in the Champions League! There is no shame in losing to a team like this."
"But we hope that after the game, everyone will point at us and say: 'Oh, another team that lost to Bayern...'"
"Or do you want people to look at us with surprise and say, 'Look, they beat Bayern!' Which one is better?"
With Pan Yi's final shout-out, the conference room was filled with passionate shouts from the players:
"Beat Bayern!"
"Beat Bayern!"
"Beat Bayern!..."
If you look at it from an outsider's perspective, what Pan Yi said is just some chicken soup for the soul. Is it really of any use?
But in fact, most of the famous coaches in this world are excellent psychological masters and speech masters.
Pan Yi had watched some team documentaries in his previous life. In the conference room and locker room, whether it was Guardiola, Mourinho or Arteta, they could all make impassioned speeches in front of the players and use various methods. Ways to motivate players as coaches.
They know very well that a player's performance on the court, in addition to their skills and tactics, largely depends on their mental state at the time.
If you want to win and are afraid of losing, then it is likely that you are worried about gains and losses, and are afraid of hands and feet, which leads to conservative kicking or daring to make moves;
And if you think you can't win, then you definitely can't win!
When facing a strong team, the belief that you can win is very important!
After Pan Yi finished pouring chicken soup to the players, the next step was to emphasize the tactics of individual positions.
Everyone already understands the overall tactics, and the key to Hamburg's victory lies in whether it can suppress Bayern's performance at several key points.
"On their right wing, in addition to paying attention to Robben's inward cut, you must also pay attention to Lahm's assists. When the Bayern captain presses forward, Robben will move closer to the center and give up the right wing. How about you at this time? You must pay attention to cutting off the connection between them when defending. If you can't steal the ball directly, you can force Ram to go down, so the threat will be smaller."
The players on the left side of Hamburg, Ogo, Son Heung-min and others all nodded to express their acceptance.
"Of course, their left side cannot be ignored. Ribery and Alaba's routine is similar to Robben's, and you can also use the same method. Once you grab it, you can immediately launch an attack along this line and fight. Behind Alaba!”
This is for Wu Lei and Carvajal.
Carvajal is now Hamburg's main backcourt attack launch point. After he gets the ball, he must resolutely counterattack on both wings. This has been made clear long ago.
"The last thing is the restriction on their front and back midfielders, which is also the most important."
Pan Yi looked at Makoto Hasebe, Casemiro, and De Bruyne.
It will be midfield versus midfield, midfielder versus midfielder.
"I won't go into the details of the pressing, but you must be tough in this game!"
"The two defensive midfielders, Javi Martinez and Bastian Schweinsteiger, have a common characteristic in that they have strong abilities on both offense and defense. They are very good at passing and dribbling the ball."
"When they have the ball, you guys must interfere with them and don't let them play the ball comfortably, otherwise it will be dangerous if the ball reaches the feet of Robben or Ribery."
"And if they dribble the ball forward, especially when Bastian Schweinsteiger dribbles the ball, don't be polite to him, just give him strength! Even though he is tall and big, he is actually mentally fragile sometimes. , rob him hard a few times, and he might be weak."
"After grabbing it, hit him from behind. Be quick and resolute!..."
This is the final instruction.
In Pan Yi's previous life, the 2012 Champions League final, Robben missed a key penalty kick in overtime. At that time, Bastian Schweinsteiger did not dare to watch the penalty kick, showing his panic at the time.
When it came to the penalty shootout, Xiaozhu missed the penalty kick under tremendous psychological pressure and cried bitterly in the end.
After the game, the media criticized: "Why let a person who dare not watch a penalty kick take the last penalty kick?"
So Pan Yi wants to find a breakthrough in Bayern's midfield, and that is Bastian Schweinsteiger.
In fact, this includes Bayern's other midfielder Javi Martinez. Although he has a tough style, he is not that kind of "beast waist" after all.
As long as you raise the hardness on your side and use fierce steals and active replacements to make up for the gap in ability between the two sides, it is possible to disrupt the normal operation of Bayern's two midfielders.
And once Bayern's waist softens, the Hamburg side can become stronger!
Correct tactics, belief in winning, and tough style are the three magic weapons for Pan Yi to get three points from Bayern!
