In the past six games, Lu Yang has also gained two player skills and one chance to open a bag. Adding the one he has been saving, he now has two opportunities to open a bag.
The two skills obtained are midfield defensive cooperation and sliding tackle.
This also allowed his defensive statistics to increase again.
Steals jumped from 55 to 63.
Interceptions went from 50 to 55.
Steals and interceptions are two different abilities and data.
A tackle is a man-to-man attack that destroys the football at the opponent's feet.
Interception refers to destroying the path of the football during the transfer process.
The former requires extremely strong confrontation ability and kicking ability, and is aimed at the opponent's ability to dribble and control the ball.
The latter requires strong prediction ability and explosive power, and is aimed at the opponent's passing ability.
In the last round of the league, Lu Yang was replaced in the 72nd minute.
This is also the first time that he has not played the entire game since he obtained the main position.
But it's not because he performed poorly.
It's because Rondo, the captain of Sanremo and the team's meritorious player, returned from injury.
Lu Yang was replaced by Rondo, who hugged Lu Yang vigorously: "Well done, kid!"
Lu Yang also replied: "Thank you captain, enjoy the game!"
When Lu Yang returned to the bench, Suotu sat next to him: "Do you know why I replaced you?"
Lu Yang looked at the court and said: "It shouldn't be my performance problem, but it must be related to me."
Suotu was speechless: "Is it so difficult to say I don't know? Why are you smart people unwilling to show weakness in any way? Even in some trivial things."
Lu Yang said: "I suddenly had a bold idea."
Suotu covered his head. Damn it, this kid wouldn't have guessed it, would he?
Lu Yang said: "Are you finally unable to stand me anymore, so... you want to adjust my position on the court?"
Sotu, die!
Lu Yang really guessed it right.
How should I describe the position of central defender?
Like goalkeeper, this is a position that doesn't require you to shine in any aspect other than defense.
Alisson scored with a header, which was certainly a great achievement.
But the only way to measure whether he is a top goalkeeper is his defensive numbers.
Neuer pioneered the goalkeeper style of play and brought new requirements to goalkeepers around the world, but how many shots he was able to save is the main reason why he became the world's number one goalkeeper.
Defenders with swords and defenders with cannons are certainly great.
Can……
The central defender just needs to defend well.
No matter how many bonus points you add, they are not as important as your main job.
And Lu Yang's performance on this point is obviously... worrying.
His personal abilities make the team, fans and even head coach Sotu very reassured.
But his playing style definitely scares everyone.
V-shaped pull in the penalty area!
Get rid of the ball near the penalty area!
Horizontal dribbling at the top of the penalty area!
In the penalty area, he would rather stop the ball with his feet than make a clearance with his big feet!
Then he inserts in and shoots outside the opponent's penalty area!
These are Lu Yang's routine operations, which have brought many victories to Sanremo and countless exciting moments to the fans, making people more and more obsessed with Sanremo's games.
But what if one day, because of Lu Yang's operations, the team loses the ball?
This is a blow to the team, and it is even more of a blow to Lu Yang.
Those fans who gathered because of Lu Yang's coquettish and gorgeous playing style would turn their guns on Lu Yang every minute, saying that he only focused on his own show but ignored the team's defense and team interests.
This will be a very big blow to any player.
Sotu has been the sinner of the team and knows the feeling very well.
That destroys a player's confidence.
It will also make a player disappointed with the team and fans, resulting in dissatisfaction.
And Sanremo needs Lu Yang!
Within a week after Lu Yang signed with Alsace, Lu Yang and Moric re-signed youth contracts with the team. The salary in all aspects has been greatly improved, and he has even become the top five highest-paid players in the team.
This is the only way Sanremo can keep Lu Yang and Moric, that is, to show sincerity.
Therefore, Lu Yang and Moliqi need to be better protected and cannot be exposed to the attacks of fans one day.
This is a level.
On another level, the central defender position is too restrictive for Lu Yang's performance.
Because you must always remember to return to the back line to guard, you will inevitably lose a lot of opportunities because of this.
This is a loss that the central defender must bear.
And Lu Yang...his talent and ability in defense should not be limited to one position.
He has his own ideas, which are beyond what the center back position can carry.
So when Rondo came back, Sotu immediately asked Rondo to return to the defense and removed Lu Yang.
He wanted to see if Sanremo's defense was still stable without Lu Yang.
If he can resist the opponent's attack, Sotu will give Lu Yang a new mission on the court.
Facts have proved that having a veteran defenseman like Rondo is indeed a treasure in the Italian League.
Although the style of the defense led by Lu Yang is very different, the defense led by Rondo is not bad either.
So, now is the time to liberate Lu Yang’s nature!
…
"Really? Is this true?" Moric was completely confused after looking at the players grouping in the training match.
Lu Yang and he are both on the main team, there is no doubt about it.
But the position marked on the list for Lu Yang is no longer CB central defender, but DMF midfielder.
Lu Yang's position changed.
He and Moliqi formed a double defensive midfielder.
Sanremo previously played a 433 lineup.
In other words, in the 4123 lineup, Moric is behind the organization.
Among them, the team's right forward will often help the midfielder to defend, so it looks more like a 4132 play with a somewhat irregular shape.
Moreover, the team's center still focuses on playing ball and has limited aggression.
As a result, the team's midfield is relatively bloated. However, these midfielders are all engineers and lack creativity, which is a huge waste of the team's configuration in offense.
Now, if Lu Yang plays as the left midfielder, the team's lineup will become 4213, or really 433.
Lu Yang's sweeping interception protected Moric in the midfield position, and the intensity of the midfield was immediately guaranteed.
The right midfielder has the same function as Lu Yang, but the position is slightly further forward.
The right forward does not need to participate in the return defense, and the left back can also step forward to help Vidian launch the offensive position battle. Sanremo therefore has the ability to fight positional warfare and no longer has to wait for counterattacks.
In particular, Lu Yang and Moric have shown tacit cooperation in previous games, which will put Moric, the midfield engine, directly into high-speed operation mode.
If Lu Yang can adapt to this step of adjustment, it will not only liberate Lu Yang's position constraints, but also free up Moric's defensive tasks so that he can concentrate on offensive organization, and also reduce the offensive pressure on Vidian.
It can be said that Sanremo has undergone earth-shaking changes on the offensive end.
But the premise of everything is that Lu Yang can adapt to all this.
"Of course it's true, buddy. You don't have to help me fill my position anymore. I've become your personal bodyguard." Lu Yang and Moliqi high-fived.
The training matches will begin soon.
Even though the coaching staff had already suspected it, the half-time score of 5-0 still brought the training match to an early end.
There is no point in continuing to play.
The offensive power of the main team has really transformed.
With fewer midfielders, Moric has more space to move, and there are more receiving points in the frontcourt, which greatly increases his passing threat.
The intervention of the right forward and left back gave Vidian a cover. It was difficult for him to be targeted by the opponent because there were two people helping him attract firepower. The chances he got seemed to be a fraction less, but the threat he created was far greater than before.
Similarly, Lu Yang's sweep in the midfield is extremely easy.
And his small-movement ball-handling skills no longer scare people, but only make people applaud and praise him.
Among these five goals, Moric passed the ball to the right forward, and the right forward passed the ball back to Moric. Moric kept passing the ball and passed it to Lu Yang, who scored a long-range goal.
Mori made a wonderful pass to Vidian, and Vidian quickly beat the defense and scored two goals.
Mori made a wonderful pass to the left back, and the left back passed to Vidian. Vidian passed back to the center in an inverted triangle, and the center scored a goal.
Moric and Lu Yang hit the wall ping-pong, and then Lu Yang made a pass to Vidian, and Vidian scored.
The team has blossomed more, and Moric's core role has been further highlighted.
This is no longer just a team that can only play defensive counterattack.
This is very important for Sanremo.
Because they are already seventh in the standings, many teams will adopt a defensive counterattack mode when facing them.
Sanremo can't wait for others to attack.
They must take the initiative to increase their aggressiveness with the ball.
This is the only way for a weak team to become a strong team.
In order to complete this transformation, many teams will purchase a large number of players with the ability to attack with the ball, or invite coaches who are good at playing offensive football.
But Sotu accomplished all this by doing only one thing.
That is to move Lu Yang from the central defender to the midfielder position.
This is chemistry and charm in the world of football.
Courtside.
"His positioning sense is so good. This is something we couldn't find when he played as a central defender." Suotu kept shaking his head and sighed. He thought he had paid enough attention to Lu Yang's talent, but he didn't expect that Lu Yang still exceeded it. met his expectations.
Positional sense is a term that many commentators and coaches will say, but it is often not easy for fans to understand.
To put it more deeply, it means that a player can always understand the team's current formation diagram, and choose to continue to stand in his own position or fill other people's positions at the appropriate time.
433, 442, 352, 4231, these are all team formations, but when the players play, when they move, it is difficult to see what shape they are.
In this case, some players will easily lose their position, especially defensive players.
This is very fatal for the team.
Good counterattacks and fatal passes often seize this kind of loss of position. The opponent's midfielder and backcourt players intervene in order to disrupt your defensive formation and find opportunities.
To reduce the occurrence of such errors, players must have a good sense of position.
Many people say that positional sense is innate, but this is not entirely true.
By properly analyzing the origin and formation factors of the sense of position, you can find that the sense of position is actually related to three things.
One is golf quotient.
This thing is mysterious and mysterious. Some people can't get it after asking for it, but some people can suddenly realize it and there is no trace of it.
The second is defensive awareness.
When the head coach tells the players not to go up or pass a certain player's position, but to stay behind him and pay attention to defense, it will be less easy for the players to lose their position due to aggressive running.
His sense of position seemed to be enhanced.
This is also the change that a coach can bring to the team.
But this is not the core.
The core factor of a player's sense of position is actually... vision!
When your field of vision is broad enough that you know where all the players are, you also know where you should be.
This is the strongest and scientific sense of position.
And Lu Yang... has the most terrifying vision on the football field.
His vision attribute is as high as 99. He has Harvey's God's perspective. He can see and remember the positions of 16 of the 22 players on the court at a glance in the picture of a moving sports camera, while ordinary professional players can only Can remember 6.
This gives Lu Yang an unparalleled sense of court position.
When to sweep, when is Moric in danger, when does Moric need the ball release point instead of his teammates blindly approaching, and when is it appropriate to move forward? Lu Yang showed too many excellences in this training match. characteristics.
Of course, this does not mean that Lu Yang has no shortcomings.
"His interception could be a little smarter, and his passing ability is also relatively weak. He is barely good at short passes, but he seems to be stretched when it comes to long passes. He is only a qualified bodyguard now, but he is not yet a holy thunder. Mo's second core in the midfield." Sotu showed regret visible to the naked eye.
This regret is not only for Lu Yang, but also for himself.
Because when Sotu played football, he played a similar role to Lu Yang in the team.
Especially in the national team, he and Manero are exactly the same as Lu Yang and Moric now.
A fierce defensive bodyguard, and the brains of the team.
But in fact, if this bodyguard has a certain degree of aggression and can temporarily take on the task of offensive organization and play the role of the cerebellum when the brain is down, then this team will be extremely terrifying.
But Sotu failed to do this. He is a superstar, but most of the time he is helpless offensively. This is also the biggest regret of his and Manero's national team.
Otherwise, they will not only have the Hercules Cup, which symbolizes the World Cup championship, nor will they pass by the Delaunay Cup, which symbolizes the European Cup championship.
By the time Sotu realized this, it was too late, he no longer had his potential.
But luckily, Lu Yang was only sixteen years old.
…
"Lu, this is what the head coach left for you." Tom handed a small box to Lu Yang, and also gave Lu Yang a report, "This is what our coaching staff came up with after reviewing today's training match. I hope some opinions are useful to you. We will have this kind of report to give you feedback on your future games...the same goes for Moric."
Lu Yang took the box and report and nodded cautiously: "Thank you for your hard work, Tom."
"For the Legend of Sanremo!" Tom clenched his fist and turned to leave.
There is no doubt that this is Sanremo's most sincere attempt to win over and show goodwill.
They are really cultivating Lu Yang and Moric as the core of the team. They may not be able to give Lu Yang and Moric the salaries of wealthy players, but they can allow them to grow as much as they want here.
At least Vidian doesn't have such treatment.
Then, Lu Yang opened the box.
"Ding! You activated the superstar legacy - the midfield butcher, Sotu!"
