Chapter 313 More Correct Running
Zhang Tiehan thought for a long time and found that if he wanted to score more goals, he had to increase the number of weapons.
Now headers and long shots are his core weapons.
However, these two core weapons have been thoroughly studied, which makes it difficult for him to get good opportunities in the game. The opponent will focus 100% of his energy on defending himself to find opportunities for headers and long shots. He doesn't even have a chance, so how can he score a goal?
Of course, these two weapons are still very important. Although there are not many opportunities for a game, if you encounter an opponent's negligence or find a good opportunity, the weapons can play a role.
But if you want more goals, it is no longer reliable to rely on these two weapons alone. Perhaps luck is more important to you now, so you must increase the number of weapons. However, it is not easy to have other weapons. After all, these two shooting methods are actually popular. They play very long shots and must have good close shooting ability, but close shooting...there will be even fewer opportunities. Anyway, he rarely gets such opportunities.
Other ways?
Free kick?
Zhang Tiehan has thought about training this ability, and the actual effect is also good. He has a strong control over the strength of his body. As long as he continues to try to complete various shots, let his body remember the feeling of those shots, he can complete similar goals in the same or similar position.
But there are no two exactly the same things in the world, and naturally there are no two exactly the same free kicks. The opponent's defense, position, etc. will change. Zhang Tiehan can still do a good job in this change, but it is very difficult to just play a free kick. His training effect is better than that of ordinary people. However, it takes a long time to practice a good free kick. Even if you have practiced it, it is still a bit difficult to really rely on a free kick to score. This is not a conventional weapon. Because it is difficult for you to control goals, and even if you give you three chances in a game, it is difficult for you to score one of them.
Then what else?
Zhang Tiehan couldn't think of anything else, so he thought about how other forwards became famous.
The 'Alien' Ronaldo is quite outstanding. At his peak, he can rely on his own ability to solve all problems by dribbling the ball by himself... But Zhang Tiehan is so hungry that it is too far away and unrealistic. Even if he has more advantages than others, this cannot solve the difficulties he encountered. After all, the technology under his feet cannot be improved a lot in a short time. If he practiced for a few years, he can finally pass by himself and scored many people by himself. I won't say what the distance is now, but it's hard to say what the situation will be.
Anyway, this is not a quick solution to the problem.
Improve your ability to cooperate with your teammates?
This is what Zhang Tiehan has been doing when he came to Liverpool. The effect is also very good. His teammates have improved very quickly in passing and receiving. He can also make a lot of tacit cooperation. He feels that he is no longer a weakness in the tactical system. Even if he can't reach the level of Gerald and Alonso, he can still reach the average level of the team. Think about it. A year ago, he was in the English League One level, but now he has reached the mid-level level of the Premier League. He can keep up with the team's pace and occasionally have excellent passes. It's already quite good.
The game against Chelsea proves that cooperation with teammates is often not very effective.
First of all, Liverpool is not a team that is very good at finding opportunities with passes and catches. The whole team is like this. Zhang Tiehan cannot imagine relying on himself to change this. If he were in Barcelona, he might have a similar idea, but he is in Liverpool, a Premier League team, and even in the Premier League, not a very outstanding team in this regard.
After thinking about it, Zhang Tiehan felt that the skills under his feet and cooperation with his teammates were just the basics.
If you don’t have good skills, you can’t use many things. If you can’t cooperate with your teammates, you won’t be able to pass football to your feet. No matter how strong your ability is, it’s useless. Even if you have good skills and better cooperation skills, you may not be able to rest assured. After all, there are many players who can do these two things well. Only a very small number of them have become stars, and no one else has become a climate.
As for the flash of inspiration...
That was even more painful. Zhang Tiehan once had a flash of inspiration, such as in the first game against Chelsea, the third goal turned and shot, but that was unreplicable. A flash of inspiration was the key, and the opponent's relaxation of vigilance was also essential. If Essin was more stable at that time, he made some small moves or tried hard to squeeze himself, then he would definitely not be able to score the goal.
So a flash of inspiration is very unreliable.
This thing is not something you can have just want to have. You can't expect a flash of inspiration in every game.
Zhang Tiehan thought about it for a long time but couldn't figure it out.
He suddenly felt that he should ask Benitez to see what good suggestions Benitez could have. After all, Benitez doesn't seem to be anything, but he can be called a "tactic master" by the media, and he is definitely of high level. Moreover, a champion coach, his views and vision of football are not comparable to those of him.
If you think about it, do it.
That afternoon, Zhang Tiehan found Benitez and told the Spaniards about his troubles, hoping to get some suggestions, "Sir, I don't know how to train, I don't know how to improve. I want to have more ways to score goals instead of just heading and free kicks..."
Zhang Tiehan roughly explained his meaning, and Benitez was greeted with a look of confusion, surprise, and a wry smile.
When Zhang Tiehan found Benitez, he was sitting in the office, writing and painting on the tactical board. Seeing Zhang Tiehan, Benitez stopped thinking and turned back to the chair. After listening to Zhang Tiehan's question, Benitez was a little glad that Zhang Tiehan came to find him alone. There was no reporter next to him, and there was no other person who should not have heard the conversation.
Yes, his first thought was this.
Even Benitez is hard to imagine - Zhang Tiehan, an outstanding striker who scored 43 goals in a single season, broke the Serie A record, and won the Golden Boot of the Champions League, would actually tell himself, "I have a trouble. I find that there are too few goals. I don't know how to improve myself..."
It's like an Olympic weightlifting gold medalist who asks, "How do I improve my strength?"
Is this showing off? Or show off?
You should know that Benitez can be regarded as an academic coach... His career as a player is very short and has no achievements. Just comparing the player's career. Zhang Tiehan can only be the existence he looks up to, although Zhang Tiehan is his player now, he must admit this.
The question now is that the successful guy in front of him is asking himself a question of 'this failed guy', "How can I score more goals?"
If others ask this, Benitez really wants to slap in the face - let you ask, let you ask! Let you show off with me!
Is Zhang Tiehan...
Benitez still felt that he shouldn't do this because he knew that Zhang Tiehan was very serious. You can tell from his usual training efforts. Players like Zhang Tiehan are worth 30 million pounds, which is definitely the world's top body. There are not many players who have achieved such success and worked so hard, and there are really not many. After they become famous, they fall into enjoyment. In history, such as Maradona, and now examples such as Ronaldo, Ronaldinho, etc. These people are like this, and there is no more effort in training.
Of course, Zhang Tiehan has not achieved that kind of achievement, but he is still young. Even if his future is not as good as Maradona, it will not be worse than the latter two. This is for sure.
Then it is worthy of praise for his efforts so hard now.
Now Zhang Tiehan is asking very seriously, so Benitez also thinks seriously. He should think from the perspective of a coach, not the player... Of course, from the latter perspective, Benitez thinks he can't think of anything at all.
Soon, the two talked for a few words, and Benitez had already come up with something.
"Zhang, have you noticed that every time you shoot, most football passes to your feet?" Benitez said.
"ah?"
Zhang Tiehan didn't understand.
Benitez explained, "Every time you shoot, you almost get a pass, then make adjustments, and then shoot..."
Zhang Tiehan nodded. Indeed, except for headers, most people who want to shoot must first consider making room for shooting, and even get rid of the defensive players before they can take a kick, but he doesn't understand what Benitez means.
Faced with Zhang Tiehan's doubts, Benitezby began to explain, "You need to do more correct running. If the football passes over and you have no defense around you, you can shoot calmly without any adjustments. Do you understand what I mean?"
“If you can be in the right place at the right time, the next work will be very simple for you.”
After saying this, Zhang Tiehan understood.
Benitez refers to the ability to find opportunities.
Zhang Tiehan thought about it and found that he was indeed very deficient in finding opportunities. Most of his opportunities could only be shot when his teammates passed the ball to his feet. As for the direct shot, he also relied on heading to complete it. He almost reached the extreme in heading and had nothing to improve.
Heading is a way to score anyway, it is easy to be frozen and restricted. I have never heard of any superstar who became famous by heading.
His ability to capture opportunities in front of the door is indeed not a little bit worse.
For example, other teammates, such as Alonso, Garcia, and even Gerald, every time they shoot, the football passes to the front, and they can directly shoot when they run to the position, instead of stopping the ball and overtaking others, they rarely score like that, but their goals in this regard account for the majority.
I should improve my ability to capture opportunities in front of the door!
To increase your ability in this area, you need to run better. As Benitez said, "do more correct running", not just to run with all your might. The correct ones are often much more useful than the useless running.
If you can get more opportunities for direct shots instead of relying solely on your personal abilities to find opportunities, then you will definitely score a lot more goals.
Zhang Tiehan suddenly felt enlightened.
"Thank you, sir, your suggestions have helped me a lot." Zhang Tiehan thanked Benitez happily, and then left the office.
Benitez actually wanted to say something, such as giving Zhang Tiehan some running suggestions, such as explaining him the significance of his position in the team's new tactical triangle core, but he found that he didn't need to do this anymore, and Zhang Tiehan seemed to have figured out something... Although he didn't know what Zhang Tiehan had come up with.
"Doing more right runs? Is there any effect without tactical support?"
Benitez believes that Zhang Tiehan will come to him. After all, in his opinion, what is the use of training alone in this regard? Running requires tactical support. If you want to get an opportunity, you must have teammates and the cooperation of the entire team.
But perhaps...this is one of the reasons why he failed as a player.
As a player, especially a famous star, he will definitely have his own ideas and try to solve some problems by himself. Just like Beckham, he uses car tires to train his footwork. This is how he thought of improving his footwork skills. Zhang Tiehan also has his own ideas. He will train some skills based on his abilities.
In capturing the opportunity, Zhang Tiehan has many advantages, such as his ability to control the whole body and the doubled "soul condensation" that strengthened his ability to control the whole body within a few meters. In addition, "see through" gave him more ability to find opportunities, and he needed more observation in the game.
Zhang Tiehan feels that he should make more use of these two abilities, so he will have more opportunities.
At the same time, he should train more running, observe his formation, the opponent's defensive position, etc. In short, he should make more use of his mind instead of running around recklessly. This is of little use.
In addition to observation, he also needs more explosions, such as when the opponent defends himself, he needs to find the right running direction, quickly throw away the defensive player, and then run in the right position.
While these trainings, there is also more communication with teammates.
When you run in the right position, the football will pass... It must feel very good. Even if you start to have ideas, Zhang Tiehan is already looking forward to the scene where this happens in the game. The shooting will feel very comfortable and the goal will become much easier.
Zhang Tiehan has begun to look forward to what he will look like when he scores like this often.
That must be very good.
