When Miss Sylvia, the new treasurer of the Madiburg Club, saw Robert Baggio on the peninsula, she felt dizzy with happiness and almost lost herself. Who says only men are nymphomaniacs?

Roberto Baggio, a melancholic hero. He is a football genius and an artist comparable to Rafael Sansi. His career cannot be called perfect, but it is this incompleteness that perfectly achieves the blue temperament of Baggio's tragic hero. He was a legend who illuminated the entire Apennines and a melancholy prince who conquered the world.

Baggio came to Hannover, Germany to visit Madiburg at the invitation of his friend and sports director Hasler.

There was no training throughout the morning, but Zhuo Yang arrived on the peninsula after receiving the notice. After welcoming Baggio, everyone sat directly in the conference room of the Blue Building. This was the purpose of Baggio's visit.

Participants in the meeting included director Hassler, head coach Jurgen Klopp, athletic director Andres Muller, who and Baggio were also teammates at Juventus, and Zhuoyang and the entire team. Member of the first team coaching staff.

At the beginning of the meeting, Baggio didn't exchange any pleasantries. He directly asked Zhuo Yang: "Zhuo Yang, how much do you know about No. 9 and a half?" Zhuo Yang was stunned when he heard this.

In the earliest days, jerseys did not have numbers. Later, only the players who played had numbers. That's right, because substitutions were not popular at that time. Therefore, the numbers worn by all players on the field are not chosen by themselves, but are determined by their position. Serie A was still like this even in the 1990s. The starting eleven were ranked from 1 to 11 by position, and no one had a fixed number.

As time went by, especially with the popularity of the 4-4-2 diamond midfield position, each number gradually had its own exclusive position.

For example, number 1 is definitely the goalkeeper, number 2 and number 3 are definitely full-backs, and so on. Some numbers are given special and symbolic meanings.

The number 5 is a winger or a shadow forward, and the number 5 has become a symbol of the deep-lying core of the defense. And No. 10 is the core of a team's midfield, the attacking midfielder who is the soul of the organization.

In the era when the No. 10 attacking midfielder commanded the football world, the active position of this number was basically within the area of ​​​​the center circle and the 30-meter line in the front court. These legendary stars are also called "classical attacking midfielders" by people today. For example, Socrates, Ray, Rui Costa, Riquelme...

Of course, with the development of modern football, the positions have long been blurred, the division of labor on the field is not as clear as in classical football, and the significance of the numbers on the jersey has gradually faded. When Matthäus gets old and plays sweeper, he still carries '10' on his back. Nowadays, the numbers in each team are more of a heritage and personal representative. For example, the number 10 of the Brazilian team is the inheritance of Pele; the number 10 of Argentina is to take over the mantle of the world champion; the number 10 of AC Milan is Pele’s inheritance. Lacey…

However, football is always advancing with the times. Due to the clever calculation of the No. 10 midfielder, hard back midfielders and even beastly midfielders began to appear, such as the French black and hard men. The overall acceleration of the football field and the increase in the intensity of physical confrontation have also caused the gradual decline of the classical attacking midfielder, and the core of the modern team's playmaker has begun to move backward.

As a result, there is a problem on the court: a large area from the center line of the front court to the opponent's penalty area lacks offensive organizers and offensive talents. In this area, the team needs a versatile player in the midfield and frontcourt. He can do the original work of midfielder, shadow forward or even center. This player needs to have the ability to dominate this area.

He is not a No. 10 in the traditional sense because he is more aggressive towards the goal; nor is he responsible for the organization and planning of the entire offensive line. So, life.

It is naturally impossible to appear on the football field. The reason why it is called "Nine and a half" is to distinguish it from the traditional No. 10 and No. 9.

He has the ability and consciousness to grab points and score as well as a center.

At the same time, he has the ability to get the ball in the frontcourt and make a fatal pass, and when necessary, he can play the counterattack role of No. 11 or return to the rhythm control role of No. 10. In other words, in addition to playing in the frontcourt, he can play all roles in the frontcourt and is also the initiator of the team's offense.

Free man in the frontcourt! ——This is righteousness.

It was the creation of the famous French star Platini in the past. Although he did not possess the top ability to advance the ball, he used the needle to instigate the overall attack of the large corps, and his devilish grasp of the opportunity to insert and the rare style of scoring goals. , became a pioneer in this position.

Even more outstanding than Platini is naturally the ball king Maradona. He uses the best combination of man and ball, extraordinary breakthroughs and magnificent vision, coupled with the unpredictable ability to organize and pass. , fully demonstrating the essence of the free man in the frontcourt.

The closest players to this concept in today's football are Ronaldinho and Kaka, as well as Totti and Del Piero. However, these four have their own strengths and weaknesses. Ronaldinho's on-field planning ability is slightly lacking, he is more like a No. 11 shadow forward, similar to him is Prince Totti of Rome; Kaká is best at rapid offensive advancement, his passing skills at his feet are average, and he is a standard modern attack. A forward midfielder; Del Piero is the most comprehensive, but his flaws are also the most obvious. He has poor ability to seize opportunities in competitions and shows timidity in big scenes.

The person who truly inherits 'Guangda' is Robart Baggio who is talking in the Blue Building conference room.

More than 40 years after the offensive football led by Valentino Mazzola was tragically ended by Superga, Baggio reopened Italy's offensive art. Its technical advantages overwhelm Rivera, Mazzola and others. This is because he is not only a master of the four all-around like Maradona, but also not a "false No. 10" like Platini who starts from the center circle, but roams in the second forward position, creating a self-contained " represents the symbol.

.

After Zhuoyang's position is mentioned as a forward, he actually plays the '11' shadow forward in the traditional sense, also called the second forward. But the actual effect is not very ideal. Although Zhuoyang still scores every game in the new season, it is obviously due to his personal ability rather than the power of new tactics. Madibao only achieved a reluctant record of 3 wins, two draws and two losses.

Zhuoyang couldn't get the ball in front, and the team's midfield offensive organization was still quite raw. It doesn't mean that freeing Zhuoyang from defense can fully unleash his offensive power, nor does it mean that pushing Zhuoyang to the frontline and midfield organization can transform it into a big one.

Uncle Zha saw the problem, and he tried to use time to solve it; Hassler also saw the problem, and he wanted to use '.

In order to strengthen Zhuoyang's offense, it is natural to bring him closer to the opponent's gate, but making his organizational planning and strategizing useless is actually a rare treasure. Baggio's suits Zhuo Yang.
