72. Chapter 69 If I come to wipe Kaka's ass, what should the opponent do?(2/2)
Li Ang didn't know what Uncle Psy told Kaka.
After the two people had a conversation on the sidelines, Uncle Psy patted Kaka's arm, and then Kaka ran back to the training ground with a little excitement in his training vest.
"The boss still knows how to look at people, so I say he will give Kaka a chance in the end!"
Cristiano Ronaldo is now holding his arms next to Li Ang and talking confidently, looking very shy.
Of course, Li Ang did not tell anyone that in his conversation with Mourinho yesterday, he provided suggestions for adding Kaka to the starting lineup.
People like Cristiano Ronaldo who have a good relationship with Kaka in the team may think that Kaka impressed Mourinho with his own efforts.
But Li Ang knows very well that this is a test for Mourinho. If he passes it, Kaka will naturally have a place in the new tactical system.
But if he fails the exam, Li Ang will have no choice.
Kaká didn't think too much about it. With Mourinho once again willing to give himself a chance, all he could do was to perform hard and then rely on his strength to become a starter again.
Although Kaka was still a little puzzled by Mourinho's request to put himself in the right rib position for the main activity.
But now he doesn't care whether he feels comfortable playing football or not.
This is his last chance in pre-season training, and he must seize it!
The group competition within the team has begun.
But today Mourinho chose to change his formation again.
The main lineup has changed from the previous four-two-three-one to a weird one, four-three-three?
Li Ang was moved to the central midfielder position, Di Maria retreated from the right to the left midfielder, and Kaka moved into the rib area of the right midfielder.
Let's say this formation is 442, it's not like that.
Because Di Maria did not play as a full midfielder on the left, Kaká did not completely move to the side.
But it doesn't look like Di Maria's four-three-three after retreating to the midfield.
Because Kaka didn't go up front.
Cristiano Ronaldo and Higuain were both confused, Angel Di Maria was also confused, and Li Ang shrank his neck with some guilt.
"Damn it, I suggested that the Angels could defend more to help me relieve the pressure. Why did Uncle Psy just pull him to the midfield? There must be too much defense this time!"
Liang complained in his mind, looking at the current position of the main lineup, he felt more and more "familiar" in his heart.
However, the match started soon, and Li Ang didn't have time to study it further. He could only play for a while and see the effect.
After the match started, Di Maria was a little constrained in his new position.
After all, let him play as an attacking midfielder. This will allow him to play directly as a left center midfielder. If he retreats too much, he will lose his position on the defensive end if he is not careful.
Kaka's performance in his new position was also a little "quiet".
Although he does not need to completely move to the side to go one-on-one with defensive players, he is actually more accustomed to staying in the middle.
All in all, I feel awkward, Di Maria feels awkward, and Kaka feels awkward too.
In comparison, Leon and Alonso's performance was as stable as ever.
Li Ang saw that Kaka didn't behave for a long time, and decided to remind him again.
"Just drop back a little, don't drop too much, press them into the third defensive zone, and look for opportunities to pass the ball to Cristiano and Gonzano (Higuain)!"
After shouting loudly to ask Kakaduo to pay attention to the movements of the two forwards, Li Ang also signaled that he was behind him to snatch the ball, so don't panic!
With Li Ang's timely reminder, Kaka quickly figured out Mourinho's intentions.
Don't let him return to defense too much and focus on looking for opportunities to pass threatening balls forward?
Kaka thought for a moment.
If his physical focus is just on attacking forward and mainly passing the ball, he will be fine.
If this is the case, Li Ang's defensive pressure will be heavy.
But seeing Li Ang's "don't worry, leave it to me" look, Kaka also made a decision while feeling grateful.
He wants to try this new way of playing, even if he is not used to it yet, he has no better choice or opportunity!
Kaka, who was the first to take the initiative to change his thinking, immediately began to actively move around in his new activity area.
Ronaldo and Higuain both have very good movement, especially Ronaldo, who is even more powerful when switching from defense to attack.
He wants to seize the fleeting opportunity between offense and defense and successfully use the pass to open up the opponent's defense.
Then you can only concentrate, carefully observe the movements of the two forwards in front, and try to be consistent with them in thinking.
Then, when the opportunity arises, give enough advance threats to pass through!
Kaka quickly figured out his tactical positioning in his mind.
And soon, Li Ang used a short forward pass after a frontal interception, giving him his first chance to perform after his head was clear.
After receiving the pass from Li Ang, he turned around and quickly raised his head to observe. Kaka raised his foot and directly made a diagonal overhead pass!
At this moment, Higuain is still looking for an opportunity to get rid of Albiol on the substitute side, but Cristiano Ronaldo on his left has quickly got rid of Marcelo with his explosive speed!
Therefore, the diagonal overhead pass given by Kaka with sufficient advance and Ronaldo's movement directly cooperated tacitly.
It's just a pity that Ronaldo chose to hit the goal directly without stopping the ball. In the end, the ball missed the far post slightly, shocking the substitute goalkeeper Adan and breaking into a cold sweat.
"pretty!"
Li Ang couldn't help but cheer loudly when he saw the threat sent by Kaka.
Mourinho, who had been taking notes and observing the game on the sidelines, also had excitement flashing in his eyes.
Kaka no longer has the strong attacking ability in the past, but he still retains his outstanding passing skills and broad game vision due to the accumulation of experience.
The threatening pass just now was fast and accurate, and it was very lethal.
No matter how much Kaka's long-range shooting skills are left now, it all depends on his ability to send threats through the ball.
That is barely enough to serve as the main midfielder in the early stages of the season.
Mourinho continued to immerse himself in taking notes in his notebook, and Kaka's confidence was greatly increased at this moment, and he did not forget to give a thumbs up to Li Ang behind him.
Kaka knows very well where the ball came from in this counterattack.
And as Khedira said when chatting with him before, it is really comfortable to partner with Li Ang to organize attacks in the frontcourt.
It's just pity for me, Angel, I've just discovered some ways to play as a central midfielder.
It was Brother Long's late protection and Li Ang's sweeping sweep that gave him some peace of mind.
On the offensive end, his forward dribbling with the ball is very threatening.
And with his offensive support and cooperation, Cristiano Ronaldo gets better and better the more he plays on the left.
When Ronaldo cut inside and entered the substitute's penalty area with Higuain, Di Maria's smooth cross was even more threatening.
Li Ang was greedy after watching it several times. He wanted to follow and rush up to experience the addiction of attacking to the top.
But when he thought about Mourinho being on the sidelines, he finally chose to follow his heart.
Li Ang, who was sweeping the midfield at full speed, was almost wiping the butts of three people.
It is definitely unrealistic to maintain such a high-intensity sweeping defensive rhythm for a long time, but in just over ten or even twenty minutes, Li Ang can still barely do it.
There is no way, my body can be used, it is really useful, but I can run, eh~
Shaheen and Altentop, who were on the bench, felt their scalps numb when they saw Li Ang running across the field.
Have they ever wanted to compete with such a monster for playing time?
Are you kidding me? If they run up there and run non-stop for twenty minutes, they will get tired immediately and even play a hammer game!
The main team controlled the rhythm of the game on both offense and defense.
And Kaka also succeeded in sending a through ball before Li Ang had to slow down his physical fitness.
This time, Cristiano Ronaldo didn't waste any more opportunities. He stopped and adjusted his shot with a powerful shot that directly broke through the goal guarded by Adan!
Mourinho also closed his laptop directly at this time.
He smiled with satisfaction.
Let’s be happy for a while, and then continue typing. Brothers and big guys, today I’m a shameless foodie asking for a subscription~
