At this time on the court, Yu Dabao was violently abused by Cannavaro and lost the ball three times in a row.
In the end, Cannavaro didn't bother to train him. He looked like he hated iron and kept muttering: "I have taught him for several months, but now I still can't get an advantage in front of myself. It's really bad."
Metzelder next to him looked at him helplessly: "You are the only defender who won the Ballon d'Or. How can he, a kid who just came to Serie A, get an advantage from you? Are your demands on him too high?"
Cannavaro snorted: "It's normal to be demanding. If it were someone else, I wouldn't want to deal with it! He was trained as Juventus' future center. If he doesn't improve as soon as possible, then he will be waiting on the bench. You will be a fool for the rest of your life! Look at the two Argentines who are on loan, they are much better than this kid!"
Metzelder stopped talking. He looked at Yu Dabao with some emotion in his heart.
Rich clubs are like this, they have extremely high demands on young people. Even Icardi, who scored consecutive goals in Bari a while ago, is still looked down upon by Barcelona. Juventus's cruelty to young people is no weaker than Barcelona's.
Cannavaro looked at Yu Dabao not far away in front of him, thinking in his heart.
How about letting this kid try playing as a defender instead? He's fast and has some defensive talent. A while ago, my husband asked me to teach him more defensive experience. I thought he wanted him to understand the offense through defense and enhance the forward's ability to think from others' perspective. But now I see that he intends to cultivate his skills in multiple positions. ah.
After a while, it would be good to loan this kid out and let him go out for a walk like the two Argentines. Maybe he can get more playing opportunities in lower-level leagues or Serie A relegation teams.
At this moment, midfielder Marchisio suddenly made a through ball and passed the ball near the penalty area. Yu Dabao suddenly retreated and rushed out of the penalty area to catch the ball.
Cannavaro was stunned: Why, this kid couldn't get the ball, so he went out of the penalty area to look for opportunities?
He followed Yu Dabao and walked outside the penalty area.
But at this moment, Zheng Zhi suddenly accelerated!
He suddenly passed Cannavaro's defense and went straight into the penalty area!
Yu Dabao passed the ball sideways and lightly, and Zheng Zhi received the ball!
Only then did Cannavaro understand what Yu Dabao was thinking!
He actually retreated and created an opportunity for Zheng Zhi!
Metzelder had tried his best to block Zheng Zhi's shooting route, and Cannavaro also quickly chased back, attacking Zheng Zhi front and back. Pepe, who was preparing to receive the ball on the other side, was also stared at by left back Chiellini.
But unexpectedly, Zheng Zhi didn't choose to shoot or pass the ball to Pepe. He directly knocked the ball back outside the penalty area!
Yu Dabao suddenly stepped forward, caught the ball and ran towards the goal!
This is a great opportunity!
Yu Dabao shot a powerful shot from the top of the penalty area!
But unfortunately, Buffon stretched his body and blocked the ball out of the baseline with his fingertips.
Although he did not score a goal, Yu Dabao's sudden retreat to catch the ball and his change of position with Zheng Zhi won applause from his teammates.
Buffon got up from the ground, a little frightened.
This ball is so dangerous.
Although it was just a training match within the team, he would be quite embarrassed if this young boy from the youth team scored a goal.
"This offense is so beautiful!" Speed whispered on the sidelines, "This kid is better than expected!"
Yun Sheng, who was on the sidelines, looked at the direction of the court and shouted to Yu Dabao: "The adjustment just now is good! Keep trying to switch positions between the center and the shadow forward! Zheng Zhi, Pepe, you two should cooperate with Dabao more!"
"Okay sir!" the two shadow fronters agreed.
In the following period, Yu Dabao frequently retreated, and Zheng Zhi and Pepe had more and more offensive opportunities. When the two faced the goal, they caused great discomfort to Cannavaro and Metzelder. I nearly lost the ball several times. If it weren't for Buffon's outstanding performance, the two central defender partners would have been defeated defensively.
Later, Canava simply moved the opposite Barzagli over, added another defensive player to the opponent, and stood on the sidelines to observe Yu Dabao's performance.
"Sir, what kind of kick is this?" Cannavaro frowned, "Why do I think his kick looks a bit familiar..."
Yun Sheng explained with a smile: "Do you feel that with Yu Dabao's adjustment, our formation has changed."
Speed stared at the direction of the court seriously: "We were originally 4-3-2-1, but now due to Yu Dabao's frequent retreats, the positions of several strikers are becoming less and less fixed, and they even compete with the midfielders. The boundaries are becoming increasingly blurred..."
Yun Sheng nodded: "That's right. Does our current playing style look like the 'no striker tactic' used by the Spanish national team in the World Cup?"
"Yes, that's it!" Speed nodded repeatedly, "During the World Cup group stage, Del Bosque used this style of play. The formation they reported at the time was 4-5-1, and the forward was the Arsenal midfielder. Cesc Fabregas, at the core, is very surprising."
"But during the game, Cesc Fabregas retreated continuously, frequently switching positions with David Silva and Iniesta around him, and also interacted with Xavi, Busquets and other players in the midfield. The six players in the frontcourt are actually all midfielders and there are no actual forwards at all, but when attacking, these six players can be used as forwards and frequently advance forward, causing a lot of trouble for the opponent."
Cannavaro frowned: "But in the end, Del Bosque gave up this style of play. He later still reused Villa, Torres and other players. Facts have proved that having a dedicated forward is more effective."
Yun Sheng looked at the players struggling on the court and said slowly: "I bet that the Spanish team will use the 'no striker tactic' more in the future. After all, their midfield is too strong, and Villa and Torres are old After leaving, the ability of the new strikers is simply not as good as these midfield talents. Reusing midfielders, seemingly without a striker, and everyone is a striker. This state is Bosque's seven greatest states."
Cannavaro looked at Yu Dabao on the court. He had just changed positions with Zheng Zhi again. Barzagli was also frequently changed by the two, disrupting his defensive footwork.
Yun Sheng said calmly: "This style of play is actually not very suitable for the current Juventus, but it is very suitable for the current Yu Dabao. When there are no three top forwards on the court, he fully retreats, not only able to provide opportunities for Zheng Zhi and Pepe More opportunities to get forward, and more opportunities to put your speed advantage to use and get more frontal defenders."
"Learn from each other's strengths, this boy Yu Dabao is much smarter than you look..."
