Not to ntion players like Morici who got in through the "backdoor" due to Kolber’s injury.
What’s more... Kolber himself is also considered a "versatile player," similar to Lu Yang.
Besides, Lu Yang and Morici both clearly understand that having just been selected for the national team, they are now facing a crucial play-off match.
Don’t even think about starting; even getting a chance to co on as a substitute would be considered lucky.
What are the fans expecting from the players on the field at that mont?
What is the Head Coach expecting?
It’s for you to make an imdiate contribution to the team!
At this point, you can reduce your touches, reduce unnecessary cooperation and passes with teammates.
But you must make a very noticeable difference to the team’s attack.
So just now, on the field, Lu Yang and Morici kept making threatening passes with Perrotta, Ancelotti, attacking midfielders, and left-back Praxedes.
Ancelotti has just recovered from a minor illness and is not quite daring to make strenuous sprints.
But he plays in a shadow forward position that doesn’t require constant sprints but does require sudden bursts at key monts.
So he held back a bit, and naturally, the effect wasn’t good.
The coordination between Lu Yang and Morici with him had many issues that were probably Ancelotti’s fault.
But in Vincent’s view, it’s simply that Lu Yang and Morici’s passes were too wide!
Ancelotti is quite adept at dribbling, and if you pass the ball at his feet, he might twist and turn and create so opportunities!
Why insist on through passes and overhead balls?
Assists in the national team aren’t as simple as those in Serie B.
Also, Perrotta is a massive central forward standing at 1.93m, a super fulcrum.
He is quite good at receiving and creating, but this requires Morici and Lu Yang to ti their forward runs well.
Morici and Lu Yang are new here, and as midfielders making reckless forward runs, it might seem a bit excessive, right?
As a result, they made a few mistakes. It was their fault, but understandable.
The coordination with Praxedes and the others was the sa.
So, although there were many problems, they could be resolved with careful communication and adjustnts.
Once the attacking issues are solved, Lu Yang and Morici would have the chance to play.
But Vincent clearly doesn’t plan to give them this opportunity.
"Do you think I can give them ample ti to adapt?" Vincent asked Maniero.
"Then why did you recruit them?" Maniero replied, "The veteran national team mbers, even without training, are ready to fight. What do they need to practice for?"
"While maintaining their form, testing if Lu Yang and Morici can bring so new changes is the purpose of this training camp!"
Vincent squinted his eyes slightly, "But this ti, I want to try new combinations. Drake’s form has noticeably declined recently, and I want to try using Candreva as a defensive midfielder."
Drake, defensive midfielder for Ro, Italy’s main defensive midfielder, turning 33 this year.
Drake’s performance in Italy’s last qualifying match was poor.
Dino Candreva, a central attacking midfielder for bottom-half Serie A team Udinese, 28 years old. Has played in various positions in his youth, a versatile midfielder for Italy coming off the bench.
Defensive midfielder?
Candreva?
This...
Does he really think everyone is like Maniero?
That everyone can play as both a central attacking midfielder and a defensive midfielder?
Anyone notice even the excellent Morici moved back from defensive midfield to central attacking midfield?
Maniero was completely puzzled.
The pioneer and master of positioning the organizational core deeper is right here in front of you, and you’re telling you want Candreva to play defensive midfielder?
If soone says you don’t understand football, generally, only soone as renowned as Guardiola could dare to play a central attacking midfielder as a defensive midfielder.
But if you claim you do understand football, wouldn’t you know that I, Maniero, am the most qualified to speak on this?
"Candreva cannot play as a defensive midfielder; when he plays as a midfielder and central attacking midfielder, he’s not the brains of the operation," Maniero spoke up.
"Oh? But I’m quite optimistic about him becoming the new brain for Italy!" Vincent said, "In recent seasons, his performance at Udinese has been outstanding!"
Maniero had a thousand words that boiled down to one phrase: MMP.
I have nothing more to say to you!
And so, Lu Yang and Morici’s first national team training didn’t go smoothly.
Most of the ti, they weren’t even involved in the team training sessions.
It made it seem as though the two of them were particularly bad.
No kidding, there might actually be people in the team who think that.
After all, Lu Yang and Morici aren’t Euros and obviously can’t be liked by everyone.
The national team also has internal competition.
...
November 17th.
Seria B, round twelve, San Remo VS Empoli.
Missing Lu Yang, Morici, and Bernulin, San Remo looked like they were missing their soul, pressed hard by the opposition in the first half.
If you say San Remo’s players aren’t excellent, that would also be incorrect. San Remo’s players at each position are nearly top-tier in Serie B.
But without the core and deputy core, any team would struggle to function smoothly in the short term.
In the 55th minute of the second half, Empoli got lucky and executed a brilliant play, breaking through San Remo’s defense to score.
Sotu on the sidelines didn’t have much to say.
There’s no way around it; this is the consequence of missing Morici and Lu Yang.
Yes, it had nothing to do with Bernulin.
With Morici, he wouldn’t have given the opponent the opportunity to repeatedly break through the midfield with passing plays.
