At the pre-match press conference for the afternoon match against Shanghai, Bilic re-emphasized the importance of
national security
The defensive aggressiveness problem, he believes that the team lacks aggressiveness on the offensive end, which led to the defeat of Shenhua. After the game, the
national security
Bilic continued to hold this view in his post-match press conference with Shenhua:
national security
Players lacked aggression.
So.
national security
Did they really lose to Shenhua in aggression?
For this reason, Beijing home id: bjzhuchang checked the statistics of the last game and found that Shenhua committed 24 fouls, while the
national security
Fouled out 17 times, despite
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
Again, 2 sheets, which seems to indicate
national security
The aggression is not weak.
17 fouls and 2 yellow cards in a single game, compared to previous years
national security
The aggression has improved. Last year Genesio led 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.
Compare that to Schmidt's and Genesio's coaching days, at least in the
national security
Both fouls and yellow cards were much higher in this match against Shenhua.
recalls that

Past meetings with Shenhua, 2019.
national security
A home win over Shenhua, with more fouls than Shenhua, resulted in a defeat. at Hongkou by the second half of the year.
national security
Fewer fouls than Shenhua, but still managed to win.
This shows that there is no direct correlation between the ability to beat an opponent and 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 give it their all. The point is, even if you put your best foot forward, you may not always be able to put up a fight.

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 other players are below 1 meter 85 meters tall. Players Ji Zhongguo, Bieira, Li Ke and Jin Taiyan are not taller than 1 meter 70.
Shenhua side, the height of more than 1 meter 90 Jin Xinyu and Moreno two people, Feng Xiaoting and Joniqi are more than 1 meter 85. the field of the shortest Cao Yunding also has 1 meter 73.
Obviously, the physical conditions of the two sides are not on the same level. Against this backdrop, the
national security
How does the aggression manifest itself? According to Bilic, it seems like it should be about playing hard against your opponent.
In fact, Beijing soccer, despite being a northern team, 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.
Because of this, Beijing soccer players have good skills and good awareness, but the physical confrontation has been in the middle and lower levels of the domestic, even compared with some southern teams do not have much advantage. While facing Liaoning, Shandong and other northern teams, opponents often use strong physical confrontation with the Beijing team.
In the face of such a situation, is it hard, or is it soft? Genesio gave the answer in an interview with Beijing home id: bjzhuchang after returning to the team. During his coaching period, Genesio against Shandong

It also often employs a double-high tactic, and that double-high is only stronger than Shenhua's double-high - 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
He should play to his strengths in technique and speed, and he asked his players to pay attention to the precision of passing and control the ball, and to pass every ball well.
Obviously, playing hard against a big, tall team is never
national security
The strengths of the program are not
national security
The way to win over opponents to win. And now Bilic has been emphasizing the team's aggressiveness, if the aggressiveness he is talking about is to fight with the opponent's body, with their own short board to fight the long, then I'm afraid that Bilic away from turning into a Jorich really not far away.
Before Bilic, the last person who wanted to change
national security
style of coaching is Zaccheroni, who tries to give up
national security
The playing style of high pressing and forward transmission was changed to defensive counter-attack, but we all know the result later. What kind of playing style a team chooses is based on the players' decision, not the coach's preference.
national security
The main focus on conduction control over the years is mainly because of the superb foreigners in the midfield and the best homegrown skillful players such as Zhang Xunzhe, Park Sung and Ji Zhongguo. If we want Ji Zhongguo and Zhang Xizhe to fight with Wu Xi for aggression, how can Bilic not lose?
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 big and tall.
national security
Players don't have much of an advantage over them except for skill and awareness. If one fights hard with the opponent physically, the
national security
This game was vicious.
Moreover, putting aside the shortcomings in technique and tactics, it is actually meaningless to talk only about the so-called aggressiveness. Players again desperately, technical and tactical loopholes, by the opponent dead stuck in the throat, even if the players die in battle, the game will still lose. Competitive sports, ultimately still rely on the strength to speak, in the strength, occupies the largest proportion of the technical and tactical factors, the spiritual level, unless the players intentionally give up, or can play an extremely limited role.
The match with Shanghai Harbor.
national security
Still, the players' struggle will only be meaningful if they try to play their advantage of conducting the ball as much as possible, combing the midfield and finding the technical and tactical loopholes of SIPG. If we only talk about tactics and techniques, our own strengths are not played out, and we do not attack against the opponent's weaknesses, but just use our bodies to carry on, it's no different from the Boxer Rebellion in the late Qing Dynasty.
Hopefully Bilic's big talk about so-called aggression isn't because he's run out of technical and tactical ideas, and hopefully it's just a pre-game incentive for the players.
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 when is it going to end 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)
与
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 seems to be an electric fan...
I hope I don't let the netizens put Bilic down, it's better to talk 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 just trying to put

Same, makes much more sense.
