Chapter 197 Advantages

"Where did this thing come from?"

"It's a pity he didn't have a striker to pair with him."

"If we could use this one move twice in every match..."

Li Yanqing couldn't help but admire Maguire's performance.

With his physical attributes, most players would be caught off guard.

Not to mention he can spin around!

"Uh, John's data analysis does have this player's data."

Didn't you see it?

This made Lyman feel a little strange.

Maguire actually joined Leicester City in 17. Although he doesn't use his signature moves often, they do occasionally come to the fore.

However, since they hadn't encountered each other in previous matches, Li Yanqing didn't take it seriously at all.

He's been focusing all his attention on the data system lately.

"What? Are you considering signing him?"

"If we can at least qualify for the Europa League this season, there is still some hope."

Lehmann smiled and looked at Li Yanqing. The team hadn't conceded a goal, so he was still in the mood to joke.

They might not be able to accept the other party's price.

“Maybe it’s a good choice.”

"This kid has excellent qualities."

"However, the premium is expected to be substantial."

Li Yanqing was actually a little tempted; it wouldn't be bad to find someone to occasionally fill in for Bradford.

However, the biggest problem is that he is not the player Burton desperately needs right now.

In summary, Maguire's strengths are his exceptional physical attributes, good passing ability, and ability to contest high balls.

However, he was also slow to turn around.

Uh... it might not just be slow.

We had been keeping the opponent inside the restricted area, so this problem hadn't been apparent.

But it became very clear when the two sides started to trade baskets in the second half.

This characteristic can only be fully utilized in a three-defender system.

When there are four defenders, it's easy for them to be turned into a sieve by the opponent's attacks.

"No, let's not buy him."

"Our playing style isn't very effective, it's a bit of a waste."

Li Yanqing ultimately gave up on the idea.

They still primarily rely on a four-defender formation.

"Let's pull back into formation and defend for now."

"Wait until the 60-minute mark before making substitutions and then start the counterattack."

"I've found a way to win the game..."

"Huh?" Lyman was stunned for a moment, and he didn't react.

You think you can figure out how to win just by joking?

How come I didn't notice it at all!

Is that why I can't become the head coach...?

This cannot be blamed on Leicester City, because at that moment Leicester City was on the counter-attack.

After being dominated for half the game, they played with particular intensity.

Burton's goal now looks like it's in grave danger.

While not to say they were at a disadvantage, they were at least evenly matched.

The outcome of the match is still unknown.

However, Lyman did not doubt Li Yanqing's words.

This kid sometimes says outrageous things, but the final result is often irrefutable.

At the 60-minute mark, Burton made three substitutions.

Murphy was called over by Li Yanqing alone.

"See that big guy?"

"Go up and tell Quinn to pass the ball behind him."

"The kind that transmits directly to the back point."

"Don't worry about either side, I'll have Sun Yan and Justin go all out."

"Understood, boss." Murphy nodded.

This is what he does best. In previous competitions, the difficulty usually lies in finding the opponent's weakest link.

But this time, Li Yanqing had already found one for him.

"Attack from behind?"

"It can't be that simple, can it?"

"The opponent's full-backs are quick to cover."

Lyman did not believe that such a simple tactic could be decisive.

How can a team of Premier League caliber be managed like a reserve team?

“The game doesn’t have to be complicated, Jens.”

"The way to win a game is to find the opponent's weakest point and then keep attacking it."

Li Yanqing shrugged; this was a principle he had always believed in.

Sometimes they have to use more complex variations because simpler methods don't work as well.

It mainly depends on what kind of opponent you are facing.

Playing against Manchester City would mean completely exposing your backline.

But Leicester City doesn't have that ability right now.

"It really works!"

"Every shot is a hit!"

Ten minutes later, Lyman exclaimed in amazement, and applause erupted.

This was given to Li Yanqing.

At least in the first ten minutes after the substitution, their strategy was correct.

Murphy had two one-on-one opportunities, but one was blocked because he was too close to the goalkeeper, and the other shot missed the target.

"The opposing team also knew that Maguire was slow to turn, so they specifically arranged two full-backs who could cover for him."

"But there is no third barrier."

"It's quite simple to deal with. Just have someone hold off both players responsible for protecting him, and then we can exploit his weaknesses at will."

“Perfect timing. Justin and Sun Yan are both very fast and can keep up with this pace.”

Li Yanqing explained his intentions to Lyman.

This legendary goalkeeper seems to have lost his legendary status after becoming a coach; he's the kind of head coach who arranges the lineup and then leaves everything to the players.

If he had to give an evaluation, he felt that the opponent's ability to perform under pressure was not as good as that of the youth team coach, Rhein.

His strength lies in setting up the team's defense.

After saying that, Li Yanqing rolled his eyes without any politeness.

My assistant coach has been working with me for more than half a year, but he doesn't seem to have made any progress.

They're not even improving as fast as the players.

"What you said makes me want to quit my job, Li."

"To be honest, being your assistant coach is often a blow..."

Lehmann had to admit that Li Yanqing was indeed a very suitable person to be a head coach.

They are always able to keenly identify the opponent's weaknesses, and then use their limited resources to target them.

The most outrageous thing is that this kid is also very good at scouting and training players.

The last time he felt this way was with Professor Wenger.

The question is, how old is Wenger?

How old is he?

If I could meet a rich boss in the future...

He had barely finished speaking when Murphy was given a third chance.

Although the opposing coach made substitutions, he still couldn't address his weaknesses.

This led to them being outmaneuvered by Burton in a one-on-one situation.

This time, Murphy finally did not disappoint.

[Pass the goalkeeper] Initiation!

Burton leads 1-0!
