The opening loss was a heartbreaking one, and with it came a flood of questions about coach Bilic.
Anxiety among Beijing fans seems to be festering and difficult to quell.
Admittedly, Bilic is to blame for the loss in the first game, but the team's thin lineup and holes are not caused by him. Two years of turmoil, so that the national team can play very few players, the bench is the lack of qualified candidates, and even if there is, the style is also similar, which makes Bilic as the face of no rice cooking.
Moreover, Bilic has just stepped into the Chinese Super League and still needs to adapt to the opponents in this league.
Therefore, at least up to now, Beijing home "id: bjzhuchang" still have confidence in Bilic, we feel that the demand for Bilic's dismissal, at least until the end of the first phase of the five rounds of matches - even if the worst case scenario is that it is already 15 points behind the top of the table. 15 points behind the top of the table.
｜Bilic is going through the "Jolic Road".
Some say it is impossible for Guoan to lose five consecutive games. Indeed, in addition to the first two opponents Shanghai two teams, the remaining three teams are significantly less powerful than Guoan. Especially Dalian, only one foreign aid back. But can Guoan guarantee that they will win against Dalian? Jose gave Guoan a lesson last year. And Wuhan and Hebei, Guoan really have confidence to win? Li Xiaopeng is not an easy man to deal with. Last year, Guoan failed to win the first round against these two teams.
Guoan fans need to wake up and realize that Beijing Guoan is the second team to decline in strength among the 16 teams in this year's Chinese Super League, and we all know who the first is. Some people say, Evergrande also declined, even foreign aid are not, yes. But Evergrande, is not the lack of "foreign aid"? Others say that Guoan is better than Dalian. The problem is that Dalian itself is a young player, a year has passed, young players have matured a year, while the veterans of Guoan, but a year older. Besides, these U23s and substitutes of Guoan, such as Gao Tianyi, He Xiaoyu, Bo Yang, Liu Guobo, and Liu Huan and Jin Pengxiang, can they really play the main role in Dalian?
Facing Shenhua's game, Cui Kangxi's tactical arrangement is very successful, many people say: all right, Hong Kong must not play like this.
I have to ask: how do you know?
Yes, European coaches are generally "me-centered" and are less likely to copy the work of Korean coaches. But if Shenhua works so well for Guoan, why don't SIPG copy it? Let's not forget that the head coach of SIPG has been changed to a former South Korean coach who is considered to be good at studying.
If Hong Kong does not learn Shenhua's tactics, Guoan is not a rival for the time being, and if you learn Shenhua's tactics, the strength of Hong Kong's players, Guoan will only die a more miserable death.
｜Bilic needs to make a change.
Guoan has reached this point, and there are still people who naively think that the opponent will not be able to do anything, Guoan must be better than the opponent. How did Yang Shiyuan, Li Shenglong, and Cai Huikang from Shanghai harbor resist Bieira in the past few years, have Guoan fans forgotten?
All this is just to cool down the Guoan fans who are not calm enough to be rational, and it doesn't mean that we have to scare the Guoan players. But obviously, the game against Shanghai is very important for Guoan. If we can avoid a losing streak, we can relieve some of the pressure on Guoan's players. If two consecutive losses do occur, there will be a problem of confidence between the generals and the managers, and the impact of such a problem in a closed area of the tournament is greater than that of the Zaccheroni years in 2016.
It's not that Bilic must win against Hong Kong, but Bilic must come up with the means to change in the match with Hong Kong.
Facts have proved that in the current situation, Guoan lineup must be adjusted. Players should try to "reduce pressure" for Bieira.
Guoan's diamond-shaped midfield 442 has actually been around since the Schmidt years, and Genesio has used the formation to its fullest extent. But in comparison, in the first match against Shenhua, even though the formation was the same, there were problems with the personnel mix and problems with the tactical details.
First, is what we said yesterday, Gao Tianyi's problem, Guoan four midfield, the lack of a receiving point, Gao Tianyi's range of motion is not enough, and the lack of awareness to receive the transfer, the bottom of the foot dragged the mud, although the individual can play a few, but the entire midfield can not be brought to life by him, can not give Bieira and Zhang Xizhe to create space.
Secondly, there is the issue of the forward line. The data of Ice Soccer shows that Zhang Yuning and Bakambu in the game with Shenhua, the position is too rigid, the number of pulling side is too little. Once Genesio use double striker, the two strikers pull the side of the high requirements, Zhang Yuning even sometimes to the right side of the road to pass, Bakambu can also go to the left side of the road to break through, there are also times, Bakambu in order to help Li Lei's side of the defense, to be able to chase back to the midfield line. And these shots, in the game with Shenhua did not see.
In fact, Shenhua's style of play against Guoan has its fatal flaws, but Guoan didn't capitalize on them well.
Choi Kang-hee divided Bieira's defense into several zones, which were given to Eddie at right back, Xiao Wen at left back, Wu Xi and Peng Xinli at the back, and as long as Bieira entered into the zone, the corresponding players would keep an eye on Bieira, inseparable from each other
Vieira is a very clever player. Vieira is a very intelligent player, and after deciphering such a defensive formation, he often drops back to a position behind and to the side of midfield, thus hoping to move the following fullback or wingback out of the way.
And this is a time of year when the gaps are not well utilized by State.
｜Shenhua is targeting Guo-an's style of play
He himself has missed the cracks, but unfortunately the national security did not take advantage of it
For example, if the guard Bieira is Eddie, Bieira through the retreat can make Eddie lost position, then Shenhua's right side is bound to be empty, Guoan will be able to use the right side of the article.
Cui Kangxi of course know this, so he let two strong raid ability of the side players - Yu Hanchao and Cao Yunding suppression of Guoan's two side defenders, which is a typical bullying Guoan have no side defenders. But Bieira brought out Eddie, Li Lei and Yu Hanchao stared dead, can not assist, then Eddie this side of the space can not be utilized by Guoan, Eddie is more able to unscrupulous to follow the defense of Bieira, until Bieira squeezed and teammates and teammates in the area.
This time, in fact, the need for Guoan strikers pulling the side of the rip, Zhang Yuning or, Bakambu or, should be used to make use of Eddie to follow Bieira after the gap to create a threat, but also able to make Eddie dare not overly follow Bieira.
But throughout the game, both Zhang Yuning and Bakambu hardly went to the side. This problem should be caused by Bilic's tactical requirements.
Bakambu is a player with good tactical execution, Zhang Yuning's tactical execution is very good, even though he is not a player who can play on the side, but as long as the coach let him go, he will definitely go. Obviously, the problem lies in Bilic's tactical arrangement.
It's true that after Barton's departure, Guoan doesn't even have the last side player. But it doesn't mean that without a wing player, the wing is abandoned. 442 two strikers are characterized by the two strikers' cooperation with each other and the penetration and pulling.
Our personal opinion is that if we want to deal with a staunch defense like Shenhua's, we need to increase the number of midfielders in receiving, transitioning, and stepping back in, and the strikers need to pull the side in time to create space for the midfield attackers.
So much so, Bilic should be looking at the use of personnel in the midfield from scratch.
The first thing is to take down Gao Tianyi and utilize Li Ke. This problem has already been mentioned yesterday - the midfield is the lifeblood of Guoan. If Guoan wants to stop the decline and rebound, it must rationalize the midfield, and the problem lies in Gao Tianyi's body. Replacing Li Ke, who is better at receiving and inserting, will make the midfield's receiving tandem more effective and will also increase the intensity of the defense's confrontation.
After Gao Tianyi went off, Guoan needed to deal with the U23 problem. In this case, only Zhang Yuning and Wang Ziming can be sacrificed.
Theoretically, Wang Ziming is the most versatile player in Guoan's local forward line, and he can play as a center forward or go to both sides. However, after taking Gao Tianyi, it is necessary for Guoan to utilize a U23 player, and since Guoan has no U23 players available at the back (Bo Yang doesn't count), Wang Ziming can only be placed on the bench. Zhang Yuning's reasoning is similar.
Then, the partner of Bakambu is either He Zhengyu, Xie Longfei or Li Boshi.
From Bilic's point of view, if he really wants to make such a change, he is bound to choose He Weiyu, and will not choose the players of Guoan's ladder team.
He Wei Yu came up and played for about 10 minutes in the first match, and what impressed people most was not his soccer skills, but the kick he gave. To be honest, the referee got away with not giving him a card for that flying kick from the side. That kick gave a glimpse of Wei Shihao.
But whether He Zhenyu really have Wei Shihao that two tricks, still need to continue to observe. And even if its playing style is similar to Wei Shihao, the assistance of Guoan is also limited, because Wei Shihao that year is due to the possession of too much possession in Guoan, can not let the attack of Guoan produce chemical reaction, and Barton squeezed down.
Sitting back and saying that Bilic might as well try to play Li Bosch in the U23 position and form a forward line with Bakambu.
The best thing about Li Boshi is that he is able to play on the wing as well as up front. In the two matches of last year's AFC Cup, Li Boshi first started at right back, then played on the left side for a while, and in the final moments, he also cameoed as a center forward. This shows that this player is a very comprehensive player. Moreover, Li Boshi is tall and he has better impact power in front of the field. His skills are also not bad and he has speed. His tactical role in front of the field should be stronger than He Zhenyu.
But to be honest, Bilic wouldn't use it that way. Due to the fact that Li Boshi, despite scoring frequently in the first phase of training, was later scratched out of the list for the second phase of training by him and Jangovic, clarifying that the two Yugoslavian hometowns don't think highly of Li Boshi, and are more optimistic about the returning He Zhengyu and Xie Longfei, who are staying in the ocean.
Therefore, let's not force the issue, if Bilic can give up Gao Tianyi to utilize He Weiyu, it's already a welcome change. At least let Li Ke assist the team to stabilize the midfield first.
What changes Bilic will adopt to deal with SIPG and the games that follow will determine his fate, as well as Guoan's fate this season. To be honest, Bilic is not known for his versatile tactics when he was coaching in the Premier League. Compared to Genesio, who has been called a "tactical genius" in European soccer, Bilic relies more on passion and fervor, but to be honest, metaphysical things can solve some problems but not the fundamental problems. Tactics is not the right way, even if you give the players "chicken blood" is useless.
Bilic should learn from his last Genesio, the French have been making tactical adjustments from the time he came to Guoan, just came when trying to play on the side, and then returned to the middle, to find the instructions for Augusto's single nucleus to lead the team, and then later, after the first phase of the first stage of the last year's grind, in the second phase of the league with the striker pulling the side to make up for the side of the attack and defense of the short board, after the loss to Shanghai Hong Kong, it is adjusted to the weight of the midfielders in the attack and defense and the The amplitude of the assist of the side defenders, so that Guoan is more and more balanced in attack and defense.
Bilic has more work to do now than his predecessor, obviously. But he actually has a lot more time on his hands than his predecessor, he has a full prep period and the league has only just begun. The key is that he doesn't try to learn from Schmidt. "Ogoo is not there" is a job that the royal media can imagine, but Bilic can't keep imagining that Ogoo is not there, we have to get on with it, we can't just sit there and wait. Otherwise, Bilic will be the same as Schmidt, become Zhou Dong in the eyes of the "big man".
Also, Bilic needs to learn from Genesio and listen to the Chinese coaching staff more. The Chinese coaching staff knows more about the Chinese Super League than he does, and the Chinese coaching staff knows more about the Chinese Super League opponents than he does.
One more thing, Bilic needs to have more communication with his players, about tactical comments openly and honestly. Players have bad play, as a coach can certainly point it out and communicate. If you don't use Gao Tianyi, why don't you use it, you have to make it clear to people. Once Geneseo in the time, with who do not use who, private communication will be good.
Lastly, Bilic is advised not to move and swear at players, assistant coaches and staff in front of the whole team. Ask Jiang Xiaojun, the interpreter next to you, what Jolic rolled over for that year. In addition to the three consecutive defeats this hard target, from the assistant coach to the players to the laundry workers were all asked by him good mother, such a coach, do not get out of what to wait for?
We support you Bilic, that's why we give you so much advice. It's up to you whether you listen or not. If you think you're so great that you can't see what the Chinese coaches, players, and media think, then you come up with your own set of things to fix the problem. In the professional game, results are hard. The Nationals can let the coach with the highest winning percentage in team history walk, and let the losing team walk, and there's even less to go on.
