Chapter 356： Into Meazza?

"After two years of deep sculpting, the whole set of tactical play has matured."

When the Naples Big Three met, Inter Milan's coaching staff were also busy studying how to beat Naples in the Coppa Italia final.

This was Mancini's last game at Inter Milan, and the most important one.

Serie A has been lost, irretrievably, and Mancini doesn't want to lose the Coppa Italia.

Assistant coach Mikhailovich also decided to officially leave Mancini's team at the end of this season. He hopes to get the opportunity to coach alone, and there are indeed teams interested in him.

After all, he has played football for many years, and he has a very broad network in Italy.

Mihajlovic believes that after two seasons of coaching Naples, Gao Shen has created a very mature tactical system for this team, the players have also been well-carved, and their physical fitness is very good.

Various factors have come together to form a strong recovery after the winter break in Naples.

"It can be said that with the performance of this season, Gao Shen has truly entered the European front line."

Mikhailovich's evaluation was recognized by everyone, and even Mancini couldn't help but nod his head.

He had to admit that he had indeed underestimated and misjudged Gao Shen before.

Now, Gao Shen is a head coach who can keep pace with him.

But the problem is that he has been unable to make a difference in the Champions League for several consecutive seasons, so he has never been able to break through the first line and reach the ranks of the top European coaches, which is the level where Ancelotti is located.

Gao Shen's situation is much better than him.

First, Gao Shen is very young, only twenty-seven years old; second, Gao Shen represents a brand-new, more advanced, more scientific tactical play and concept; and finally, Gao Shen is now very popular and can be taken over at any time The giants made a breakthrough in the Champions League.

Of course, Gao Shen has already won a Champions League and a La Liga championship. Although many people are reluctant to admit it, in fact, these two championships make Gao Shen a little higher than a first-line coach like Mancini.

At least, they are out-and-out Champions League coaches!

…

So far, Mancini has played against Gao Shen three times.

The first time was a complete victory, and his tactics were also the most certain of him; the second time was a home game, and he was full of confidence before the game, but in the game, he found that it was not so simple, and he almost lost; the third time was The battle of Sao Paulo was a disastrous defeat.

Some people say that from these three games, we can see the progress of Gao Shen and Naples.

And Mancini felt more helpless.

In the first game, Inter Milan's strength occupied an overwhelming advantage, and it can be said that it completely crushed Naples.

But by the second game, that strength advantage diminished, and then Mancini tried to make adjustments.

Everyone knows that in Naples, the midfield is crucial.

Even if you can't suppress Napoli in the midfield, you must not let the midfield be overwhelmed.

It can be said that it truly interprets the phrase "whoever wins the midfield wins the world".

But previous attempts have failed, what now?

This is the biggest problem facing Mancini.

…

"I want to play four-five-one."

Mancini's voice just fell, and everyone in the audience showed an incredible look.

Play four five one?

Defensive counter attack?

you sure?

Mikhailovich opened his mouth slightly and wanted to say something, but seeing Mancini's expression, he couldn't say anything.

No one knows better than him the situation and mood of Mancini at this moment.

Once upon a time, how proud Mancini was, the leader of the new generation in Italy.

At that time, did he ever have Naples in his eyes?

Therefore, even when Naples topped the list, Mancini ignored Naples directly when he pointed the country.

Because he believed that Gao Shen and his team could not threaten Inter Milan at all.

But in the Sao Paulo Stadium, Mancini's team was completely defeated!

Shameful defeat!

His situation has changed, and so has his mood.

"We have to protect the midfield well. Only by defending the midfield can our defense line be stable. Otherwise, our current defense will not be able to stop Naples, Burdisso and Qiu's central defender combination. "

Mancini was also full of depression, and seemed to be feeling a little powerless.

That battle, not only destroyed Inter Milan's leading position, but also destroyed Mancini's confidence and backbone.

But from another point of view, what Mancini said is true.

Materazzi was injured, Samuel and Cordoba missed the season early, and now there are three central defenders, Rivas is not reliable, Qiu and Burdisso are short, facing Cavani With high centers like Pellet, that's a problem.

"How about the midfield lineup in terms of defensive counterattacks?" Mikhailovich asked helplessly.

"Go to Suazo in front, his speed plays a big role in the counterattack." Mancini did not answer directly.

Obviously, Mancini still does not want to go to Zlatan Ibrahimovic.

Cruz accumulated yellow cards suspended, Inter Milan has three centers, Suazzo, Balotelli and Crespo.

"Five midfielders, I haven't thought about it on the left, Cesar or Solari is fine, Vieira, Stankovic and Zanetti are in the middle, and Balotelli plays on the right."

Figo is too old to be entrusted with any more responsibilities.

Balotelli is only seventeen years old, but he has performed very well this season, but is he young and reliable?

From the point of view of the formation of troops, Mancini's intention is obvious, that is, to protect the defense line and focus on counterattacks.

Balotelli and Cesar, Solari's task is to drive the ball on the wing, but this will also face problems.

Neither side of Naples is vegetarian. Valley

Needless to say, Vargas has only played for one season, but he is the first left back in Serie A.

Lichtsteiner also played a higher value in Naples, especially in the second half, after adapting to Serie A and fully integrating into Naples, the right back was both offensive and defensive and performed very well.

In this case, can a wing configuration like Inter Milan be able to withstand it?

"We don't have a choice at all, there's no one on our side!" Mancini felt the sight of Mikhailovich and others, helpless, and even vented a little angrily.

In fact, everyone knows that Mancini also has its own difficulties.

Many people envy his huge squad, but they don't see how many veterans Inter Milan has behind the huge squad? How many players are playing in the year?

For example, the center, Ibrahimovic, Cruz, Suazo, Crespo, looks so extravagant.

But what type of players are these?

They can't provide strong support to the midfield players at all, they only score goals, and they can't even connect.

Fortunately, a Balotelli came out later.

And what about Naples?

Cavani, a defender-type center who can chase back from the opponent's penalty area to his own penalty area and play with his opponent's life.

Some people may ask, why can Cavani still be the top scorer in Serie A?

Because Naples created a lot of opportunities.

As long as the opportunities created are good enough, even the scumbag center can be fed into the king of shooters.

There is also Pellet. Anyone with a discerning eye can see how obvious his tactical effect is.

The question is, who can play the role of Cavani or Pellet in Inter Milan's center?

Ibrahimovic?

Yes, he can, but this man is not happy!

"Now, Balotelli is the only one of all our players who has the ball to push forward, isn't he?"

Mancini's rhetorical question left everyone speechless.

is not that right?

Who else but Balotelli?

Figo?

Another way is to push Maicon forward, but the question is, after Maicon goes up, who will the right back be given to?

You know, Napoli's left winger has always been tough.

Last season's Gervinho, this season's Di Maria, Callejon, and even Mertens, aren't they all ruthless characters in this position?

Everyone has to admit that Inter Milan is really no one, and Mancini is really poor.

In fact, this season, Inter Milan has played until now, and only people inside Inter Milan know that a coaching change has long been inevitable.

Because Mancini simply takes the current Inter Milan team and plays with this lineup, there is no way or idea.

He didn't even know what the team should do next.

Signing?

Who to bring in?

What kind of play?

Do you have any ideas to improve the team's combat effectiveness?

All of these, he has none.

Inter Milan's personnel predicament is of course the responsibility of the management, but why is there no problem with Mancini?

It's like high and deep, UU reading www. uukanshu.com He can be equipped with different types of players in multiple positions, and when faced with different opponents, he can give different responses.

This is the real head coach!

And Mancini's most frustrating thing is because of this.

He found that he was not only defeated on the court, but also in all aspects off the court!

Completely defeated!

This is what makes him feel discouraged and depressed the most.

So, he was beaten to the point that he only wanted to fight back in the Coppa Italia final.

Because he really has no choice.

A team, in this situation, should have changed coaches long ago.

Even, it should be changed at zero to five, instead of waiting until now, all problems and contradictions have come up, the scene is deadlocked, and everyone is helpless, as if it has become a dead end.

In this final, in fact, there is no need to play at all.

The result is now known!

Unless the lofty Naples kill themselves and make a fatal mistake, there is really no reason why Naples would lose this final.

This is also the reason why the outside world is all down to Inter Milan.

In fact, the Inter Milan management did not hold too much hope for this game. Moratti even said before that Mancini used youth team players to play, and he felt it was acceptable.

In fact, it is telling everyone that Inter Milan is giving up hope.

Before the game was played, Gao Shen had already won!

It is even heard that Inter Milan intends to contact Gao Shen after the Coppa Italia final and invite him to join Meazza.

It might be a good thing to talk about.

After all, a team like Napoli is not competitive in the Champions League.
