After a recent period of training and friendly matches, the team's AB lineup was finally determined.
The candidates for the main A lineup: goalkeeper Hildebrand, the defenders from left to right are Heinze, Kompany, Ujfalusi and Sun Jihai, and the three midfielders from back to front are Makelele and Foley. Ramini and Ljungberg, the forwards are Gudjohnsen, Recoba and Saviola.
The main lineup has not been adjusted much. Basically, it is the main lineup from last season as the skeleton, with the addition of Heinze, Gudjohnsen and Saviola.
In fact, the combination of several forwards is one of the key points that Yun Sheng is considering for this Monaco formation change.
Recoba, who performed well last season, will definitely occupy a main position, and Gudjohnsen and Saviola are also top-notch and in good condition. With three players playing at the same time, it is the best combination.
The purpose of Heinze's joining is to replace the immature Kurzawa. There is no doubt about his starting position.
Among the three players in the midfield, Yunsheng asked midfielder Makélélé to hold back, while Flamini and Ljungberg staggered back and forth. They could play in the middle or wide, defend or attack, and their positions changed even more.
The reason why Yunsheng asked the players to increase physical training was because his tactical requirements had undergone some changes. He required the players to strengthen the pressing from the front court and counterattack on the spot after losing the ball to speed up the pace of the game.
After all, there are many fast horses and ball-handling talents in the team, so there is no problem with the quick counterattack tactics.
The candidates for the other B team are more young players.
Candidates for the rotation of lineup B: goalkeeper Luffiye, defenders from left to right are Kurzava, Senderos, Mendy and Adriano, three midfielders from back to front are Gakpe, Wang Chuhe and Re Ervinho, the forwards are Aubameyang, Diego Costa and Dong Fangzhuo.
In this lineup, several players have undergone some changes from last season.
Mendy can play as a midfielder and defender, but Yun Sheng pulled him to the defender position and asked him to partner with Senderos. One of the two has strong running ability and the other has outstanding defensive ability. They are a good combination.
Last season's midfielder Jia Kepei was moved to the defensive midfielder position by Yun Sheng. He is fierce in fighting and has excellent physical fitness. He is fully qualified for this position.
In the current Monaco team, Gakpe, Mendy and Kurzava are all young talents in the youth team, and they are also the targets of Yunsheng's training.
The midfield commander in lineup B is Wang Chuhe. In the recent joint training, Wang Chuhe performed very well.
Compared with Chen Tao's amazing performance when he joined the team, Wang Chuhe seems to be inconspicuous and has no very special talent. Dribbling and dribbling are not his strengths. He only serves as the midfielder's metronome, passing, controlling and distributing the ball to help the team's offense and defense run more smoothly.
But that’s it, it’s amazing enough!
Even several world-class stars were amazed by Wang Chuhe's talent.
Flamini patted him on the shoulder: "Man, I think your impact on the team is greater than mine."
Makelele also praised him repeatedly: "It's very comfortable to work with you."
Forwards such as Gudjohnsen and Saviola were even more impressed by Wang Chuhe's precise passing.
Seeing Wang Chuhe's outstanding form, if it weren't for his need to accumulate experience, Yun Sheng even planned to promote him to the A lineup.
I believe it won’t be long before Wang Chuhe will become a big bargaining chip for the coaches of Monaco and top European teams.
In addition to Wang Chuhe, the most threatening person in this lineup is the foursome on the offensive line.
Aubameyang and Dong Fangzhuo were separated on the left and right, with Diego Costa in the middle. These three young people were full of energy and had obvious speed advantages. During the team's training matches, even the main defense line led by Uyfalusi felt... Headache.
And Gervinho, who was swimming behind them, was even more of a dribbling fiend. These four offensive players rushed up at the same time during the counterattack, and the threat was too great.
Assistant coach Pro even asserted: "With the strength of the B lineup, we can win the Ligue 1 championship!"
The two AB lineups have been determined, and with Zhang Linpeng training in the youth team, Yun Sheng is full of expectations for the new season!
On August 3, 2009, the opportunity came for Monaco to try out the knife.
In the Stade Louis II, an appetizer before the start of Ligue 1 is about to begin.
This is the French Super Cup match of this season, Monaco faces Bordeaux at home.
Bordeaux is also sharpening its skills in this game, hoping to seize the championship at home in Monaco and avenge the loss of the title in two lines last season.
Bordeaux also made significant signings in the summer, preparing to make a comeback this season and once again challenge for the French Ligue 1 and French Cup championships.
From the first minute of the game, Bordeaux pressed forward from all fronts, trying to take advantage of Bordeaux's home game.
Their new players integrated into the team very quickly, and Bordeaux's overall cooperation is very tacit.
In the Louis II Stadium, the Bordeaux general vowed to win this game.
But only fifteen minutes into the game, Bordeaux was stunned.
Just fifteen minutes later, they were already two goals behind!
Due to the departure of Ligue 1 Golden Boot Shevchenko and Ligue 1's best player Chen Tao, Bordeaux players thought that Monaco's offensive quality would decline. However, they did not expect that Monaco's new players are still top-notch!
Just 5 minutes into the game, Ljungberg made a breakthrough and passed the ball to the far point of the goal. Saviola was extremely fast, and he caught up and stabbed the ball into the net.
1 to 0!
At 15 minutes on the ground, Monaco got a chance for a corner kick. Flamini's corner kick was passed to the top of the penalty area. After Gudjohnsen stopped the ball, he shook away a defensive player and decisively volleyed into the net!
2 to 0!
And this is just the beginning.
In the 37th minute of the game, Monaco once again used continuous passes from the midfield. After the continuous cooperation between Gudjohnsen and Ljungberg, the pass was passed to the center, and Recoba easily pushed the ball into the net.
3 to 0!
The Bordeaux players couldn't believe their eyes.
Three goals behind?
Bordeaux coach Blanco was even more dumbfounded.
The two teams were evenly matched last season. How come after two months of not seeing each other, the strength of the two teams is so different?
The fans of the away team also stared wide-eyed, unable to believe what they were seeing.
At this time, the fans of the home team in the Louis II Stadium cheered and applauded!
Before this game, all Monaco fans were a little worried about their team.
After the team loses its two main offensive players, will the team's offensive power be affected?
Can new aid Gudjohnsen and Saviola find their best form?
Will the team's new tactical style of play go smoothly, and is 4-3-3 suitable for Monaco?
It only took less than 40 minutes for the Monaco players to give their answer!
