In the English League Cup semi-finals, Manchester City and won the derby and stepped on their old rival Manchester United to enter the final.
The Blue Moon Legion crushed the Red Devils tactically, and the core De Bruyne made great contributions; but although Manchester United lost, but the core Bruno Fernández did not lose points and continued his high-light performance.
More than half of the Premier League’s progress this season, Ding Ding and B Fees ranked in the top three in key data such as assists, key passes, and number of goals created. They even can measure the number of shots by forward . Ranked in the top five, and B Fee is ranked third in the scorer list with 11 goals... If it were not for Kane who had a perfect transformation, these two would dominate Premier League in terms of organization and offense, absolutely Super core.
However, these two midfielder cores are already very different from the same players in the past, and they seem to be able to see a certain direction of football development.
Mortals defeated the gods and the decline of the core of the classical midfield.
In the 1980s and 1990s, the core of the classical midfield was the gods on the court. They often relied on the gods who ruled the court by technology, consciousness and overall view. Are they active? The prerogative of defense is the artist who plays the piano in the team. He can comfortably enjoy the service of his teammates playing the piano. Z1z Platini , Maradona, Zidane are all like this, and the last question is classical midfielder Riquelme's is depressed, we see this as the decline of this era. After Z3z
Riquelme, no matter what the tactical construction of the team is, their demand for classic midfielders is not high, the traditional midfield core presence is seriously reduced, and the gods gradually fall into the altar.
The dusk of the gods is because of the rise of mortals.
In the early years, due to the underdeveloped football industry, there was a large gap between ordinary players and talented talents. Those midfield cores who mastered the power of the team’s offensive organization often had outstanding technical capabilities, relying on personal passing, ball control, running position, breakthrough, Shooting is very direct to create offensive space in the front court.
Back then, the easiest way for many teams to break dense defenses was to create space for shots in the core midfield. They needed to move around in a small space and use passes to disrupt or tear the opponent's defense line to create scoring opportunities for teammates. It’s just that Platini is more inclined to technology and vision, while Maradona and focus on the combination of technology and speed. Zidane combines technology, overall view and offensive capabilities. They just define everything in a different way. The greatness of God. The
football field is also like a mythical world. The gods have the greatness of the gods, and the mortals also have the glory of mortals.
With the development of the times, scientific progress, the rapid development of nutrition and sports science, the physical fitness of the players continues to improve, and the mortals that the gods have to face are getting stronger and stronger; with the assistance of computers and the Internet, let the core midfielders The technical moves that have been trained over the years are getting shorter and shorter; coupled with the improvement of their skills and tactics, the level of overall defense of the coaches is increasing day by day, using discipline and defense to counter the talent, and occupying the defensive space to the maximum extent. Defensive to contain talented stars, the Greek infantry phalanx that restricts the gods has long been formed...
By the turn of the century, the living environment of the core of the classical midfield has been extremely harsh, only Zidane , Rui Costa, etc. Only the “great god” can dance on the court. Many core midfield players are strangling butchers and animal waists, making it more difficult to survive in front of the defense line of the copper wall and iron wall.
From the gods to the heroes, the core of the modern midfield is the transformation of
with the power of gods and the mentality of mortals. This is the hero in Greek mythology.
Only by knowing the way mortals fight can they know the way to defeat them. In the face of increasingly powerful mortal forces, the gods began to transform into heroes, seeking to win dominance on the court in a more down-to-earth way.
When mortals are strong enough, the gods have also completed their own evolution. When it is difficult to accomplish organizational tasks by relying on individuals, the rich teams begin to decompose the core functions of the midfield, or intentionally or unintentionally push them to evolve in different directions.
Among them, Pirlo’s midfielder core hasTrans-epoch meaning. In the beginning, Sleephide was obviously cultivated according to the standards of the "gods", and technology, consciousness, and insight were all at the top. However, at the beginning of the 21st century, this kind of playing has been greatly curbed, such as the unwillingness in inter and the early confusion in Milan.
And Ancelotti put him in the position of the back midfielder, allowing him to release his advantage in a stable environment, using the backcourt space to let Sleeping skin avoid excessive defensive players' restraints, so that he can play with his precision at ease The ability to pass long passes and grasp the direction of offense, especially after Gattuso's arrival, Pirlo has bodyguards and partners. He has completely completed the transformation from the old god to the new hero, and the organizational midfielder has gradually become popular.
Also in Milan, Pirlo's rear position also gave birth to the coexistence of four No. 10 players, sharing organizational tasks while also having their own ideas of division of labor. The first phase of Mu’s Chelsea frontcourt share organizational responsibilities, the full technical midfielder of Barcelona’s dream two dreams, the technical transformation of German football, and the trend of front waist represented by David Silva. It is the core of the talented midfielder who undertakes more work for the collective, and emphasizes that talent serves the system rather than the system.
's original god-like midfield core began to "cannibalistic fireworks", completing the transformation from gods to heroes.
Heroes are everywhere, modern midfield core upgrades
From the 4231 wave of the World Cup in South Africa to the wave of three central defenders in the World Cup in Brazil, the importance of the core midfield has been further weakened. Not only the midfielders also share the task of organizing the offensive. The frontcourt support role, the defender and even the goalkeeper's backcourt play have also become an important part of the offense.
When mortals' combat effectiveness is getting stronger and stronger, the defense of each team becomes more and more tight, and it becomes more and more difficult to open up the offensive space, which has spawned the upgrade of heroes, and they can only highlight their value if they are stronger.
backcourt space is largely occupied by defensive players, which are actually stimulating the improvement of the strong team's ability to organize and attack. This means that the team needs a more powerful midfielder offensive and defensive conversion ability. The improvement of the core midfield function is just needed. Heroes should be more ubiquitous. They must not only appear on the offensive end, but even appear on every court. area. At this stage of
, Ancelotti, who laid the foundation for Real Madrid Champions League triple Zhuangzhuang, once again initiated a great change. He redefines the role of the core midfielder with the idea of "civilian military use". Z3z
Modric is the representative of this upgrade. The Magic Flute has become more comprehensive after the Premier League experience. The offensive, organizational and defensive capabilities are relatively balanced. The frontcourt organization, midfield coverage, and backcourt play are everywhere. . In addition to relying on his vision and skill, his ability to run in a wide range and defend aggressively is amazing.
offensive in recent years, Tintin and B Fei have become representatives of the core players of modern midfielders. They inherited the ubiquitous core attributes of Modric.
Whether it is the core of Manchester City or Manchester United, they all reveal a kind of ancient Greek heroic temperament. They have the ability of gods, have the humility of mortals, and they are everywhere and can be the core of all areas of the stadium.
De Bruyne scores a lot less than B Fee. He is better at discovering opportunities with extraordinary insight. He uses precision-guided long passes, fast passes to the ground, and runs through the entire frontcourt. The team grasps the direction of the offense and completes the threat attack.
What’s more commendable is that the Belgian can also retreat to the backcourt to help the ball. Once Manchester City encounters the opponent’s frontcourt pressure, Tintin can return to the central defender or even the full-back position, and the backcourt ability is good. Teammates form a good forward shot; he can also appear on the front line, use his own retracement to take the ball, and kick the ball to deliver an assist quickly from an incredible angle.
B fee is longer than offense. The Portuguese retreats and assists the backcourt to make fewer shots than De Bruyne. He is good at using diligent running and active defense to further improve the overall operation of the team. Able to complete threats or counter moves in the most suitable place in the frontcourt, and can also make passes while on the move. The higher viscosity and speed of the dribble allows him to complete a breakthrough in the penalty area and at the same time insert the offensive in the back row. The ability is even more powerful.
is willing to appear in any position when necessary to serve the system. B Fei is very happy to do things that he is willing to do in a high position in the front field, cover a wide range of defense in the midfield, and defend aggressively on the side and even the backcourt.
puts these two midfield cores together and observes, we can draw a conclusion that they have completed the evolution of being integrated into the whole but higher than the whole. Today, when the overall defense is getting tighter and the player level is rising, it represents the new China. The core of the field.
