MTL - Starting with Real Madrid-Chapter 1268 Towards the perfect center forward!
Latest URL: In the past ten years, with the rise of wingers, especially the rise of wingers like Ronaldo, Messi, Salah, Mane, etc., the requirements for center forwards have begun to change, and they often talk about tactical roles. Let's talk about fulcrum and support.
It feels as if the scoring ability of the center has become unimportant.
Or, there will be another extreme view, and it seems that scoring goals is easy.
This is normal, because looking at Messi and Ronaldo, scoring forty, fifty, or even sixty goals in a season, it is really terrifying, and scoring goals seems to be commonplace.
When the fans are used to scoring goals like Ronaldo and Messi, and then look back at other forwards, naturally each one is not taken seriously, and each one should be disgusted.
But for a long time, Gao Shen has maintained a point of view that the center forward is the most difficult position on the football field.
And, as long as football is a goal-emphasizing game, the center forward will never go out of style.
The more important the game, the more you encounter a solid defensive opponent, the more obvious the role of the center forward will be.
When many people see the crazy scoring games of Ronaldo and Messi, they often ignore the amazing number of shots they occupy. Of course, some shots are created and grabbed by them relying on their personal ability and consciousness.
In fact, the conversion rate of Messi's shots and goals in recent years has not reached 20%, and his peak was 28% in the 12/13 season. In that season, he scored 46 goals in La Liga. goal.
Many people accuse Ronaldo of indiscriminate shooting, but it is not completely unreasonable, because his conversion rate is indeed too low, the highest is 21% in the 14/15 season, other than that, it is basically between 14% and 15%. between.
After joining Juventus this season, his conversion rate is 12%.
Maybe seeing this, many people will think that Ronaldo is too inefficient.
But in fact, it really isn't.
The biggest problem with Ronaldo is that he has a lot of long shots, which drags down his conversion rate.
Even so, Ronaldo's conversion rate is not particularly bad. For example, Wandowski's conversion rate this season is only 15%. In Dortmund before, he was also around 15%. After joining Bayern, You can get more opportunities in the penalty area, so his conversion rate has gone up, but it is only 20%.
Among all the forwards, one is quite special, and that is Suarez.
When Gao Shen coached Manchester City, Suarez’s conversion rate was always around 20%. In recent years, as he got older and more experienced, his conversion rate was around 25%. At the peak of 15/16, It even reached 29%.
As a striker, Yin Cardi's efficiency has always been very high, always above 20%, and even reached 33% at the highest point, that is to say, every three shots can score a goal, this efficiency is absolutely amazing of.
And I believe that many people will be surprised by Vardy.
After Leeds United was promoted to the Premier League, Vardy began to get opportunities one after another, and his conversion rate has also improved greatly. In recent seasons, it has been steadily above 20%, last season was 25%, and this season it has reached 28%. %, it can be said that the older you are, the more demonic you become.
Seeing this, I believe everyone can have a general impression of the conversion rate.
This data cannot summarize all, but can be used as a reference.
So what is Mbappe's conversion rate this season?
The answer is 28%.
Yes, Mbappé's shot conversion rate this season is 28%, which means he can score a goal with less than four shots on average.
This is why the whole of Europe is flocking to Mbappé, and it is also one of the important factors why the French winger's worth can reach 250 million euros. His efficiency is too high!
Wait, how much is Harland?
The answer is, 38%!
Of course, Harland played more games off the bench this season. This data does not have much reference value. It can only show that Harland's scoring efficiency is very high.
And one thing that must be mentioned here is Leeds United's careful cultivation of Vardy, Mbappe and Harland.
Especially Mbappe and Harland, Leeds United are training them in the most scientific and rigorous way.
Therefore, at present, Mbappe is like a Ronaldo with rapid improvement in shooting technology, higher efficiency and fewer long-range shots.
What about Harland?
Many people will think of Imbrahimovic who is also tall, but it is not.
His impact also looks very similar to Adriano back then, but Harland's speed is obviously faster.
There are actually very few players of Harland's type, and it is even difficult to find a template, but the number of training methods is actually not very different, and they are all trained in the direction of perfection as much as possible.
Remember, when Gao Shen found Harland in Norway, what did he say to the old Harland?
Formal youth training.
Yes, in Gao Shen's previous life, many of Harland's technical movements were actually seriously irregular.
Even in 2021, before the deep travel, Haaland was already a hot superstar figure in European football, but it is still the case. Many of his technical actions, including shooting, look carefully, and they use some unconventional actions. For example, kick.
Maybe many people will say, what's all the fuss about?
As for shooting, as long as you can score a goal, it is also good to hit it with your butt.
This is true, but it just proves one thing, that is, Haaland's talent is seriously underestimated.
Why is it underrated?
Because he did not receive the most formal and scientific youth training, and did not lay a solid foundation, he would use some seemingly uncoordinated movements to complete high-quality shots.
If it is a center forward from regular youth training, it should be like the template Van Basten.
Always using some uncoordinated, even improvised movements to complete the shot, it is indeed more difficult to defend, but it also often represents instability.
Up to now, he has joined Leeds United since he was 9 years old, and has accepted Borrell's fine-tuning since he was a child. Harland's basic skills are very solid. Whether it is stopping the ball or dribbling, he is better than his previous life.
Even the short board in the previous life, that is, the header, has been practiced very well now.
It's like facing this header from Huddersfield, and it scored very beautifully.
Good technique, fast speed, strong explosive power, strong body, good balance, high flexibility...
All of these have created a devil Buu Harland who made his debut at the age of 18 and scored goals in the Champions League quarter-finals and the Premier League for three consecutive games!
…
Gao Shen was in the stands, full of praise for Haaland's goal.
The key is the header.
"This short board has caught up." Gao Shen said with a big laugh.
He has seen every bit of Harland's progress.
"Yeah, it's really not easy. This kid has a heart, is willing to work hard, and has practiced very hard." Borell praised.
Gao Shen was very happy, "When I meet old Harland another day, I will be very proud. If such an embryo is trained for him, God knows what it will look like?"
At the end, Gao Shen snorted coldly.
The Harland in the previous life was the work of the old Harland. Although it was quite good, it was much worse than the present.
You know, knowing how to play football does not mean that you can teach others to play football, not to mention that the old Haaland himself is not a player with outstanding skills. What level can the students he teaches be?
"He will probably be very unconvinced and say that he instilled the basic qualities of a professional player in Harland since he was a child." Borrell laughed.
The old Haaland is a famous player of Leeds United. His son performed very well in the youth training camp, and he devoted himself to football. As a result, the old Haaland was very familiar with Gao Shen, Borel and others.
With the current momentum and influence of Leeds United, Harland probably won't consider leaving the team until he wins the World Footballer and the Ballon d'Or, and even if he wins it, he doesn't have to leave the team at all.
Whether it is Gao Shen or Leeds United, they are cultivating him like their own son.
Just ask, if you change to another team, can you have this kind of treatment?
"You still have to pay attention to your physical condition, properly control your playing time, and you must practice your back-up technique." Gao Shen reminded again.
A center can't post up, that's really, really bad.
More importantly, if you can't hurry up and practice while you are young now, it will be even more difficult to practice again in the future.
Especially when he started to play the leading role in the first team, after the pressure of the game subsided, how could he have so much time to slowly enrich the arsenal?
Of course, taking advantage of the fact that the pressure of the game is not high and Vardy can still take on important responsibilities, he quickly practiced all the skills to the full.
"Oh, by the way, there are also Vinicius and Rodrigo. These two players must also strengthen their training."
Although many media and fans hailed Vinicius and Rodrigo as the Brazilian twin stars, in fact they have very different characteristics. Vinicius is fast, explosive, and good at breaking through from the side.
But the current winger can't be satisfied with breaking through the wing, but has to try to score more goals.
Vinicius's shooting skills are very average and need to be greatly improved, as well as his left foot, which also needs to be practiced.
In contrast, Rodrigo looks mediocre at first glance, and there seems to be nothing special, but it is precisely this comprehensiveness that makes him full of potential.
He is like a student who scored 90 points in every subject.
This kind of comprehensive player often has great stamina.
Both Brazilian players share common problems as well as common strengths.
The problem is that they all lack experience in European leagues and cannot adapt physically, especially in the Premier League.
But the advantage is that they, like the vast majority of Brazilian players, dare to take the ball, dare to make moves, and dare to break through. UU reading www.uukanshu.com
To put it simply, newborn calves are not afraid of tigers.
This is very rare in football.
Many players have excellent skills and the ability to break through their opponents, but they are hesitant and dare not make moves, which delays the opportunity.
In contrast, Brazilian players like Vinicius and Rodrigo are particularly valuable.
In the advanced plan, the current Leeds United has not yet arrived.
As the saying goes: build walls high, accumulate grain widely, and become king slowly.
Now Leeds United has completed the stage of building high walls and is accumulating food.
After Leeds United has completed the accumulation of food and laid a solid foundation, it will start to become the king.
At that time, this group of young people from Leeds United would definitely make the entire European football world tremble.
