Chapter 551: We Still Have a Chance


Walking out of the Nike training center, Yi Shi could hear bursts of cheers coming from the indoor football stadium next door.

Southampton's indoor football match is being held there This is a fun intra-squad competition, involving not only the first team, but also all youth teams.

But don't underestimate the young players.

They are still very competitive on the indoor football field.

They do not lose to the players of the first team at all.

In many cases, they can even suppress their big brother.

Down.

Passing by the door and hearing the commotion inside, Yang Huan could guess that the competition inside must be fierce without going in.

As an ambitious team, Southampton has also made great efforts in humanization.

It has all kinds of entertainment, leisure and relaxation facilities, striving to provide players with all-round and high-level services.

"Listening to these shouts, I'm afraid it's Neymar who has appeared," Yang Huan said with a bit of sadness.

Bielsa walked beside him and just smiled lightly and nodded.

Neymar is recognized as the king of indoor football in the Southampton team, with superior strength and invincibility.

It is said that this kind of indoor football is also very popular in Brazil.

The foot skills of Ronaldinho, Robinho and others are all tempered on the indoor football field.

Even in the professional arena, they often appear.

The flower life of indoor football.

But who would have thought that Neymar would be getting further and further away from Southampton.

Just now, after a long period of simulation and calculation, the analysis team believed that Neymar's transfer would not have much impact on Southampton because there is still Hazard in the team.

For this result, as long as the transfer price is right, Neymar will definitely leave.

It's just that the season is not over yet, and the team has to continue to move forward in the Premier League, FA Cup and Europa League, so it needs to be further kept secret and cannot be announced to the outside world, even the players have to hide it.

"Old Bei, what do you think of the current situation of the team?"

Yang Huan and Bielsa walked side by side on the cobblestone paths of the Staplewood training base, looking very comfortable.

But every word discussed may affect the future direction of the Southampton battleship.

Bielsa still seemed very calm and calm, and it even seemed like he didn't have much emotion.

"After the sand table deduction of the analysis system, in the remaining twelve rounds, the winning rate of each game is more than 50%, except for the home game against Liverpool in the 30th round and the home game against Chelsea in the 31st round. , every victory is more than 65%, or even 70%."

Southampton's analysis system is currently playing a key role within the team, especially after Southampton reached data sharing with other Premier League teams, the Saints have obtained almost a massive amount of opponent data.

The analysis system mainly functions in two aspects, one is itself.

Relying on detailed data, we can clearly understand all the information about every player in the team, scientifically configure the team's starting lineup for each game, and exert the team's strongest and most targeted competitiveness at that time.

Another thing is the opponent Rely on massive data to understand the opponent's situation, simulate various possible tactics of the opponent, analyze the advantages and disadvantages, and formulate the most targeted game strategy, and then conduct deductions on the system sandbox.

The deduced results can in turn help the head coach adjust the team's starting lineup and tactics.

The result of this is that in the era of big data, the winner may have been decided before a game starts.

Of course, there is no way to completely control risks.

We can only maximize the team's advantages, but occasionally they will suffer upsets.

Just like what Bielsa said, in the sand table deduction, in the two home games against Liverpool and Chelsea, the latter game against Chelsea had a winning rate of 63%, but the former game against Liverpool had a winning rate of only 63%.

Fifty-six.

This is Southampton’s home game reason The game before playing Chelsea was an FA Cup match on the weekend.

Even if Southampton could make it to that round, they could still play with a substitute lineup and concentrate all their energy on dealing with Chelsea, so the winning rate would be high.

But this game against Liverpool was preceded by a midweek Europa League match, which adds to the variables.

The specific winning rate has to wait until before the game and conduct pre-match simulations to get the most accurate data and winning rate.

As for other games, it is natural that Southampton has the advantage due to its strong overall strength.

When it comes to the strength of the lineup, Southampton is one of the best even in the Premier League.

This also relies on the business strategies of Yang Huan and Bielsa over the past three years.

"Remember what I told you before?"

Yang Huan smiled and looked ahead.

The sky in Southampton is particularly blue and clear.

Although Bielsa was silent, his eyes revealed that he was entering his own memories.

"I said that European football is facing an unprecedented change.

Digitalization will subvert everything now.

So if Southampton and I want to rise, we must seize this opportunity."

Bielsa nodded, still remembering that when Yang Huan said this, he felt stunned.

How crazy must a person be to be considered a lunatic by the world's recognized lunatics?

"Modern professional football is all about big capital, money, but many people have money but it's useless because they don't know how to spend it, just like Abramovich and Mubarak."

Having said this, Yang Huan smiled proudly, filled with indescribable pride and high spirits.

"But I understand" Before Bielsa could speak, Yang Huan continued.

"Many people think I am a lunatic.

What is the use of investing so much money to develop a so-called analysis system?"

Yang Huan sneered, "As everyone knows, those who think I'm stupid are even stupider than me."

"Why is Barcelona able to acquire high-level stars in the Grand Slam ball control system?"

"Yes, these are playing an important role, but behind all this, Guardiola's coaching team of more than 40 people is the key.

Before every game, they will submit an extremely detailed report to Guardiola.

Data analysis allows Guardiola to clearly grasp all information about both the enemy and ourselves.”

"Inter Milan won the Triple Crown.

Is Mourinho's coaching art very good?

But behind his coaching is Mourinho's trust in data analysis for many years.

He is one of the head coaches in Europe who is good at using data. one"

"There is also Bayern Munich.

Ever since Klinsmann's drastic reforms, Bayern Munich has attached great importance to the analysis and application of data.

This led to Bayern Munich reaching the Champions League final in 2010 and almost winning the Triple Crown. king."

"It's a pity that Van Gaal lost to Mourinho, who was better at using data, but last year, Bayern Munich made a comeback and finally realized their dream of winning the Triple Crown."

“Behind each of these great achievements is driven by big data.”

Bielsa stood silently behind Yang Huan, listening to Master Huan's tirade and feeling very impressed in his heart.

Barcelona was strong, but after the Triple Crown, Russell cut off Guardiola's coaching team and analysis team.

Inter Milan was once at its peak, but they died after getting too addicted to it.

After the peak, they quickly declined, and the use of data has long been in name only.

Only Bayern Munich has a healthy financial team.

Starting from Klinsmann, they have deeply felt the revolutionary changes brought about by digitalization, and have unswervingly promoted digitalization reforms, and will usher in the same this summer.

Guardiola pays attention to the use of data.

In the future, Bayern Munich will be a tough opponent Within the Premier League, Manchester United was the first team to promote the use of data.

As early as the last century, Ferguson was already promoting Manchester United's data reform.

Stam was later sold because Ferguson made mistakes in data analysis.

As a result, Manchester United later had to spend a lot of money to introduce Ferdinand to make up for the shortcomings.

Even more, why did Ferguson appoint Moyes, who has no coaching experience at a wealthy club?

I really thought it was just because the latter was Scottish Don’t treat Ferguson and Manchester United’s top brass as fools Because Moyes is famous for his emphasis on data analysis in the Premier League.

Bielsa has already reached a tacit understanding with Yang Huan.

They have analyzed the teams that have established dynasties in the past, especially in recent years.

All the strong teams that have swept Europa have these two elements.

One is integration, and the other is dataization.

Needless to say, the trend of integration is something that every fan can understand.

But Bielsa's emphasis on integration is not just about integrating the team into a whole, but also about playing full offense and defense, so his team places great emphasis on high-position pressing.

Because high-position pressing, to a certain extent, is the integration of offense and defense.

To achieve this, not only the player's strength level must be high, but the technical and tactical levels must be close, and the overall style must be unified and complementary.

Manchester United's Triple Crown was built on the foundation of Class 92, Barcelona's Grand Slam was built on the players from La Masia's youth training, and Inter Milan's Triple Crown lineup has players very close to each other in terms of strength.

Most of the players have worked together for many years, and several complementary players such as Sneijder have joined the team.

The same is true for Bayern Munich's treble winner last season.

Looking back at Real Madrid, why is it that despite having such a strong lineup, it has never been able to achieve satisfactory and convincing results?

because they lack the whole A team like Real Madrid, which has a luxurious lineup but lacks integrity, and whose style changes frequently with frequent coaching changes, may be able to concentrate its main forces, focus on one front, and achieve results, but it will be difficult to achieve results on multiple fronts.

Gains were made on the battlefield.

What's more, Real Madrid doesn't trust data, they trust stars

In Southampton, Yang Huan not only understands football, but also knows how to run a team, and strongly believes that dataization will completely subvert the existing game model of professional football.

Therefore, since acquiring Southampton three years ago, Yang Huan has been committed to doing two things.

On the one hand, there is a large-scale signing, relying on the advantages of the time traveler, waving the check in hand, and building a luxurious top lineup for Southampton.

With Southampton's current lineup, let alone the Premier League, even in European football, it is one of the best.

More importantly, this group of players has been working together at Southampton for two or three years, and under the guidance of Bielsa, they have become an orderly whole.

This is evident from the excellent record in the past two seasons.

On the other hand, large sums of money are invested every year to develop analysis systems and vigorously promote the data reform of the team.

Over the past three years, the team has continued to benefit from digital reforms, and now this system is finally in place.

Harvest the fruits, the harvest time has come "Old Bei, do you know?"

Yang Huan suddenly turned around and looked at Bielsa with excitement.

"I have a very, very strong feeling right now" Bielsa suddenly raised his head and looked at Yang Huan.

He actually showed a confident smile.

This cold-faced man who was always shy about smiling actually smiled, and he smiled so confidently.

"Although we are currently ten points behind Manchester United, I feel that we still have a chance."

"Really, believe me, we still have a chance."

After hearing this, Bielsa nodded sympathetically
