At the pre-final press conference against Hong Kong in the afternoon, Bilic re-emphasized that

There was a lack of aggression on the offensive end, which he cited as the reason for his team's loss to Shenhua. In

Bilic continued to hold this view in his post-match press conference against Shenhua:

national security

Lack of aggression.

could it be that...?

national security

Really not as good as Shenhua in terms of aggression?

For this reason, Beijing home id: bjzhuchang checked the technical statistics of the last match, and found that Shenhua's fouls were 24 times, while the

national security

17 times, although

national security

The number of fouls was slightly lower than Shenhua's, but the difference was not significant. In addition, Shenhua received 2 yellow cards and

national security

The same 2 yellow cards were earned, which seems to indicate that the

national security

The foul play was no less than Shenhua.

17 fouls and 2 yellow cards in a single game, compared to previous years

national security

The aggression seems to have improved. Last year, during Geneseo's tenure at the

national security

12.8 fouls per game and 1.6 yellow cards per game; in 2019, under coaches Genesio and Schmidt, the

national security

12.8 fouls per game, 1.2 yellow cards per game; 2018.

national security

13.9 fouls per game and 1.5 yellow cards per game.

It follows that, compared to Schmidt and Genesio, at least the

national security

In this game with Shenhua, in the two statistics of fouls and yellow cards, is significantly better than before.

Obviously, the ability to beat an opponent is not directly related to the number of fouls and yellow cards.

In fact, a game like the Battle of Beijing and Shanghai.

national security

It's impossible for players not to put up a fight. The point is that even when they fight hard, they don't always win.

Among the starting players in this game, the tallest is Kim Min Ja who is 1 meter 90 meters tall, except for Zhang Yuning and Gao Tianyi who are 1 meter 85 meters tall, all the other players are under 1 meter 85 meters tall. Among the players who appeared in the match, Ji Zhongguo, Bieira, Li Ke, and Jin Taiyan are not taller than 1 meter 70.

The Shenhua side, more than 1 meter 90 players have Jin Xinyu and Moreno two, Feng Xiaoting and Jonic are more than 1 meter 85. the shortest Cao Yunding on the field also has 1 meter 73.

Obviously, the physical qualities of both sides are not on the same level. In this case.

national security

How does the aggression show up? According to Bilic, it seems like it's supposed to be hard with the opponent.

In fact, although Beijing soccer belongs to the northern team, it has never been known for its physical quality. Whether it's Shen Xiangfu, Li Hui, Gong Lei in the past, or Cao Jiandong, Gao Gao and Gao Hongbo after professionalization, Beijing soccer has always taken the route of small and fast.

Being a northern team, but always known for their skills

Because of this style of play, Beijing soccer players have excellent skills and good awareness, but the physical confrontation has always been at the lower domestic level, even compared with some southern teams, there is not much advantage. While facing Liaoning, Shandong and other northern teams, the opponents often use strong physical confrontation with the Beijing team.

In this case, is it a hard fight, or a soft fight?

Genesio gave an explanation in an interview with Beijing Home id: bjzhuchang after his return. During his coaching period, Genesio has been very impressed with the Shandong

Luneng (city in Shandong)

Remained undefeated during

faced with

Double high tactics are also often employed, and those double highs are only stronger than Shenhua's double highs - Pelle and Fellaini. But Genesio's

national security

faced with

Luneng (city in Shandong)

The record, however, has been good. Genesio believes that playing against a team with a tough ballclub

national security

Should play to his advantage in technique and speed, he asked the players to pay attention to the precision of passing and controlling the ball, and to pass every ball well.

Obviously, playing hard against a big, tall team is never

national security

The strong points of the program are also not

national security

The magic weapon to win. And now Bilic has been emphasizing the team's aggressiveness, and if by aggressiveness he means having to fight with the opponent physically, using his shortcomings against his strengths, then I'm afraid that Bilic is not far from becoming a Joe Ritchie.

Before Bilic, the last attempt to change

national security

style of coaching is Zaccheroni, who tries to give up

national security

The high press and forward transmission of the playing style, switched to play defensive counterattack, but then the results are well known to everyone. What a team chooses to play is based on the players to decide, not based on the coach's preference to decide.

national security

The main focus on conduction and control over the years is mainly because of the superb foreigners in the midfield and the best local skillful players, such as Zhang Xizhe, Park Sung and Ji Zhongguo. How can Bilic be undefeated if he has to ask Ji Zhongguo and Zhang Xizhe to fight with Wu Xi for aggression?

I'm afraid the same will be true for the match against SIPG. Cai Huikang and Baitijiang are very physical in the midfield, Yang Shiyuan is a tough guy who can kick anyone, Li Shenglong, Lu Wenjun, Yu Hai and He Jiao are all physical types.

national security

Players have no advantage over them except for skill and awareness. If if they were to fight hard against their opponents physically, the

national security

This game was vicious.

Moreover, putting aside the flaws in the technical and tactical aspects, it is actually meaningless to talk only about the so-called aggressiveness. Players and then try their best, technical and tactical loopholes, by the opponent dead stuck in the throat, that is, the players died on the battlefield, the game will still lose. Competitive sports, ultimately still rely on the strength to speak, in the strength, accounting for the largest proportion of the technical and tactical things, the spirit of this thing, unless the players intend to give up, or can play an extremely limited role.

The match with Shanghai Harbor.

national security

It is still necessary to play as much as possible to their advantage of conducting the ball, combing the midfield, and finding the technical and tactical holes of Shanghai Hong Kong, the players' struggle will be meaningful. If you only talk about tactics and techniques, you can't play your own stuff, and you don't attack against your opponent's weaknesses, you just use your body to carry on, then it's not much different from the Boxer Rebellion in the late Qing Dynasty.

Hopefully Bilic's big talk about so-called aggression isn't because he's running out of steam tactically, and hopefully it's just meant to be a pre-game pep talk for the players.

Pre-match conference against Harbor

But then again, Bilic hasn't seen anything stronger than the last Geneseo, at least at this point, other than a better ability to play chicken. And what time is it going to be when the first two games of the league are going to be spent on chicken fights?

In an interview with the press the other day, Bilic said that

national security

The game against Shanghai Harbor was like

Liverpool (England)

Manchester City football club

of the game, an analogy that was mocked by fans online, many of whom said:

national security

This new coach, he's like a fan...

I hope I don't let the netizens put Bilic down, it's better to say less and do more in this situation. Do more research on the weaknesses of your opponents and can you do to Oscar what Shenhua did to Biela. It's better than putting

sound like

England Premier Soccer League

Same, makes much more sense.
