Chapter 680 God’s Turning Point
Hazard found himself standing in the familiar player tunnel of St. Mary's Stadium, a little dark, as if the lights were not turned on.
The exit of the tunnel in front is very bright, but not dazzling. You can vaguely hear the shouts of fans filing in from the stands outside the stadium. The closer you get to the exit, the louder and clearer the sound, as if you can hear who they are shouting name.
A burst of white light flashed, and everything suddenly became clear.
He found himself at the exit of the players' tunnel at St. Mary's Stadium, and the whole stadium was filled with the chants of fans.
It was big and clear, and he could even hear exactly where the sound was coming from.
For example, above his head, there are the shouts of the team's die-hard fans, Saint Harry fans, they always have swearing.
This is incredible!
Hazard stood stunned at the exit of the player tunnel, looking left, right, front, and back, everything was exactly the same as when he walked out of the player tunnel before the game, very realistic.
On the court, the opponents have already set up their positions, and the referee's whistle is already in his mouth, ready to go.
He knows it's time to start!
With the clear whistle of the referee, Hazard felt that he was already in the opponent's penalty area.
When he looked up, he saw himself.
Very familiar, wearing the red and white arrow striped jersey designed by Asprey's famous designer Christopher Bailey, panting, looking very tired, but still running in front, patiently looking for opportunities.
He believes that it is himself, because he has always done so!
If you want to gain a foothold in Bielsa's team, you must go all out in every game.
A few kicks back and forth, the ball came to his feet.
He started from the left, stepped on skillful small steps, dribbled the ball, passed one, and began to cut to the middle.
"Pass!" Hazard blurted out.
Because he saw that Suarez had already ran out of space in the penalty area to ask for the ball, but Hazard on the court didn't seem to see it, and passed another player from the opponent when he cut inside.
"Quickly pass to the right!"
Obviously, Sturridge slanted into the penalty area from the right rib to respond.
The Hazard on the court hesitated, weighing whether to hit the goal by himself or pass the ball to Sturridge?
But it was this hesitation that missed an excellent opportunity, and the opponent's central defender came up.
In a hurry, Hazard chose to kick himself, but the angle was too small, and he was hugged by the goalkeeper.
This made Hazard feel very depressed.
Because he knew very well that this was an excellent opportunity he missed during the game against Manchester United.
No, it should have said twice, a pass to Suarez and a diagonal pass to Sturridge, but both times he missed, and finally, in a hurry, made the worst The choice, open the door yourself.
"I should have passed it on sooner!"
But just when Hazard regretted it, the picture changed again.
This time Southampton was wearing an away jersey, and the game was obviously different from the one just now.
Toni Kroos made a long diagonal pass and accurately found Hazard on the left. The latter unloaded the ball with a steady kick, as if the ball was stuck to his foot.
This time he played with the opponent's reckless defender. After passing it easily, he dribbled the ball diagonally into the penalty area from the left rib, and then swayed the opponent's tall central defender in the penalty area.
At this moment, Hazard, who was on the sidelines, exclaimed, "Opportunity, hit the door!"
But Hazard on the court didn't seem to have this idea, but passed the ball to Ibrahimovic.
The Swede's position is not good, and there is a central defender next to him, so facing Hazard's pass, he received it and used his physical advantage to open up the kicking space, but the angle was too wide. It was too small and was confiscated by the goalkeeper.
Hazard remembered that this game was against Hull City.
"Why? Such an obvious opportunity, I didn't even notice it?"
Azar asked himself very tangled.
But he didn't have time to regret it anymore, the screen changed again, and he entered the next game, and it was still his mistake.
...
"Master Huan, look, this is what Hazard is seeing now!"
In the Nike training center in Stapletwood, in front of a virtual training system that Southampton has just completed, Marcus du Sartoy smiled and introduced the team's new equipment to Yang Huan.
In the room in front of them, Hazard was wearing a pair of shorts, lying on a platform, connected to a lot of data cables with sensors, monitoring his every move, such as heartbeat, blood pressure and so on.
Through these data, the system will automatically get Hazard's state of mind at this moment, such as nervousness or disappointment.
And Yang Huan and Marcus du Satoy saw everything Hazard saw at this moment through the LCD monitor.
The difference is that Hazard uses the first-person perspective, which is full of sense of substitution, while the pictures of Yang Huan and others are divided into two parts, one part is the first-person view seen by the virtual reality helmet, and the other is Azar. Seoul's situation.
"These pictures are produced by us using the game videos provided by Sky TV and British Telecom. All of them are clips of Hazard's mistakes in the past season and this season, and all of them are aimed at him during the game. Fragments of missed passes and shots."
Yang Huan nodded, and he could see that it was all mistakes in these two aspects.
"Why?"
Marcus du Satoy looked at Bielsa next to him with a smile.
The Argentine lunatic held up his glasses on the bridge of his nose, "Judging from the current situation, Hazard is an excellent opportunity creator. He is the best player in our team who is good at creating opportunities, and is also the best at dribbling and breaking through. .”
"The lightning-like four-degree, lightning-quick footwork, and that unstoppable flexibility allow him to easily get rid of defenders even in the face of dense defenses, and create for himself and his teammates. There is enough space, and although he is not tall, he is very strong and is not afraid of physical confrontation at all."
Having said that, Ersa gave his own evaluation.
"All of this is the basis for him to become the best player in the world!"
Yang Huan is no exception to this, and he is also waiting.
Because under normal circumstances, Bielsa should have a magical turning point next.
Sure enough, Bielsa was followed by a but!
"However, as a classical opportunity creator, Hazard didn't score strongly enough. Even many good scoring opportunities that should have been done, he finally chose to pass the ball and missed the opportunity instead."
"So, this season, as long as I arrange Hazard to start on the left side, I will definitely arrange a secondary scorer on the right side. The best ones are Sturridge and Suarez. The effect of Sanchez is relatively average."
Lavelle Morrison belongs to that kind of traditional winger. His scoring ability is not very strong, but he passes by and breaks through.
If you follow what Bielsa said, then you can understand why Hazard's performance last season was also very eye-catching.
At that time, the right side of the team was Gareth Bale with super scoring ability!
"Hazard is a player with unlimited potential. In terms of passing, he doesn't pass many forwards, especially the last pass, which needs to be further strengthened. In addition, I consider strengthening his scoring ability and making him more comprehensive. "
Regarding these, Yang Huan asked himself not an expert, but it sounded pretty good.
"What about Sanchez?" Yang Huan asked concerned.
The Chilean winger is also one of the players with the strongest personal ability in Southampton's frontcourt, but what is interesting is that in the few games he played with Hazard this season, neither of them performed very well.
It was even said that the two wingers were completely incompatible and mutually exclusive.
"Sanchez is a more mature player than Hazard, and his dribbling and breakthrough ability is not as good as Hazard, but Hazard's dribbling ability is at the same level as Messi. Sanchez is at best slightly inferior, but Sanchez is more efficient. The scoring ability is also better than Hazard, but the two play at the same time, not as incompatible as the fans and the media say."
"Why is that?" Yang Huan was very surprised.
"No goal!" Bielsa gave the answer very positively.
"What's the meaning?"
"They all created a lot of opportunities, but the efficiency of converting these opportunities into goals is too low, so in the eyes of the fans and the media, when two people play, the team's number of goals drops sharply, or the performance of the front trident is not good. , that’s why.”
Yang Huan suddenly understood, "Then what trick do you have?"
Bielsa shook his head, "This kind of thing can't be rushed. On the one hand, the two need to accumulate more training and competitions to cultivate a tacit understanding. At the same time, I also hope to further supervise their progress and make them more comprehensive."
When Bielsa said this, he was very sure and looked at Yang Huan seriously, "But I can tell you for sure, Master Huan, their partners with Suarez, plus Sturridge, Lavelle Morrison , will shock the entire European football world!"
After hearing this, Yang Huan smiled, and he understood what Bielsa meant.
Both Ibrahimovic and Drogba are old, and the entire frontcourt strength of the current team has undergone earth-shaking changes from that of the past. In the past, Ibrahimovic alone supported and brought the team up. The team's entire offensive system has been affected, but now, the Swedish center has limited Southampton's frontcourt attack power.
It may sound cruel to say this, but professional football is like that.
Since ancient times, beauties are like famous generals, and the world is not allowed to see gray hair!
However, Yang Huan has already made plans with Raiola, and I believe Ibrahimovic will be satisfied with this arrangement by then.
This is already the only thing Yang Huan can do!
Hearing what Bielsa said, Yang Huan let go of his heart. It can be seen that the team's planning for Hazard is quite serious. As a layman, he doesn't need to worry about anything.
However, he still had a question in his mind.
"Marcelo, how are you going to arrange Kaka?"
So far this season, Southampton has given Kaka time and opportunities, but the Brazilian's performance has always been tepid. It cannot be said to be too bad, but there is no performance that is too eye-catching. Therefore, for Kaka , the outside world has been criticized everywhere.
After Bielsa heard this, he shook his head and smiled wryly, "Master Huan, if you look at the performance on the court, Kaka is really not very good, but the analysis results based on our statistical data show that Kaka is gradually, point by point. In progress."
"Really?" Yang Huan was overjoyed, and looked at Marcus du Sartoy.
The latter also nodded, expressing support for Bielsa's conclusion, "After several months of recuperation and rehabilitation training, Kaka's body is already qualified to play a full game, and his main problem now is his mental problem. "
This made Yang Huan happy. If Kaka could be activated, it would be equivalent to bringing in a superstar.
But, is it possible that the team will continue to trust him? Keep giving him chances?
"Master Huan, overcoming the fear in my heart is a difficult and thorny process. It's not like lighting a lamp. It's not that simple. All we can do is trust and support!"
When Yang Huan heard this, he could only nod his head.
Since both the coaching staff and the analysis team believe in Kaka, and I believe in them, I can only continue to trust Kaka.
I hope Kaka will not disappoint!
"Master Huan, please follow me!"
Marcus du Sartoy smiled and pointed to another room next door.
