After a long period of 11 to 10 but lost to Guoan, the recent consecutive defeats, the beginning of the season has been difficult to find a win at home; in the face of the team's poor recent situation and unsatisfactory results, even Yu Genwei, the banner figure of Tianjin football, has been overwhelmingly questioned.
For the recent poor situation of the Jinmen Tigers, you can see some objective reasons, such as the team's two important foreign aids, one before and one behind, are now exempted from the game due to injury. For example, throughout April, the Chinese Super League schedule is relatively dense, and the Jinmen Tigers are not a particularly strong team, so it is difficult for them to go all out in all competitions.
But even if there is one reason or another, the recent performance of the Jinmen Tigers is still far below the expectations of the outside world. Especially in the game against Guoan, he lost to the opponent for a long time of 11 to 10, and this pot can obviously only be carried by the head coach.
According to Yu Genwei's calculations, he left Barton, Wang Qiuming, and Ademi on the bench because he wanted to hand over the initiative of the game to Guoan to fight a war of attrition, and then strike later in the second half. But after Zhang Yuan was sent off in 19 minutes, Guoan had to take it back, and after they handed over the initiative of the game directly to the Jinmen Tigers, Yu Genwei did not respond in time;
In the second half, Yu Genwei began to field more attackers. After the Jinmen Tigers fell behind, they did push Guoan's formation back, but after Guoan's formation was pressed back, Suarez's on-the-spot adjustment was more targeted than Yu Genwei's. He asked Guga to go up and block the ribs to restrain Ademi; seeing that the Jinmen Tiger did not have any penetration ability, he changed the three central guards to strengthen the air defense. In the face of Guoan's iron bucket formation, the Jinmen Tigers hardly showed any way to break the game. In the last half hour of the game, it was basically to watch the two sides of the Jinmen Tiger keep crossing, and then the two foreign central defenders of Guoan kept pushing the ball out;
When Guoan's two central defenders contributed 27 clearances in a game, it was inseparable from the "tacit cooperation" of the Jinmen Tiger players. However, Yu Genwei said after the game that he was "satisfied with the performance of the players" and "the players played the tactical deployment required by the coach on the field", attributing the team's defeat to a lack of luck, emphasizing that it was because "the overall formation of Guoan shrunk to the penalty area, and the team did not have a good way to play through, and could only rely on crosses from both sides to get opportunities", which can be regarded as a further ignition of dissatisfaction in public opinion. So much so that some Tianjin fans have begun to persuade the banner figures of Tianjin football to take the initiative to let Xian. On the Internet, there are already some extreme voices criticizing "Yu Genwei's coaching is not as good as Cheng Yaodong"!
So having said that, Yu Genwei, who was praised by many people as the "current domestic coach ceiling" last year, why is he a little unable to play this year? In fact, a core reason lies in the change of assistant coaches.
From Yu Genwei's retirement in 06 to the start of the game in 21 years before he went out to pick up the Jinmen Tigers, Yu Genwei has hardly been a coach in the past ten years. When Yu Genwei, who has passed his 50th birthday, his resume as a coach has just entered the fourth year, which in itself can show that in the past ten years, when Yu Genwei planned his "second half" in the football circle, he was not in the top position as a coach.
The reason why he was allowed to come out of the mountain in 21 years was purely because the Jinmen Tigers team was temporarily put together after the mandatory resurrection, and a person with strong appeal was needed to stabilize the situation. In Tianjin football, there is only Yu Genwei who has this kind of appeal, so he will be the head coach + general manager on one shoulder.
And Yu Genwei also knows very well that with his coaching level, it is difficult to bring much improvement to the team at the technical and tactical level, so after leading the team to relegation in the first season, he has been trying to "introduce" high-level assistant coaches to lead training.
The 22 season is still a competition system, and it is more troublesome for many foreigners to come in, and Yu Genwei invited Zheng Bin at that time. That year, under the creation of Zheng Bin, Jinmen Tiger would often make a fuss from the opponent's ribs.
Later, Zheng Bin was arrested, but the three-year epidemic ended, communication with the outside world resumed, and Yu Genwei invited the Portuguese assistant coach Felipe. Under Felipe's transformation, while the Jinmen Tigers insisted on walking last year, the local high pressure in the front court was also played, which also made Yu Genwei, as the head coach, highly praised last year.
This year, the Jinmen Tigers once again tried to upgrade their tactics, Felipe left the team, and Yu Genwei brought in a new foreign assistant coach.
Judging from the content of the game, the Jinmen Tigers have put more emphasis on controlling the ball at their feet in many games this year than in the past. However, one of the "negative" effects of this style of play is that due to the level of the players, the Jinmen Tigers are not able to play smooth passing and receiving in a fast-paced situation, and they have to slow down the pace of the game in order to pursue the accuracy of passing and receiving. As soon as the rhythm is slowed down, once facing a team with excellent high pressing ability, it is difficult for them to hit the ball to the front court quickly and smoothly At the same time, once there is a passing and receiving error, it is easy to be counterattacked by the opponent One by one, it can only be said that Yu Genwei is currently trying to use a style of play that does not match the strength of the player's positioning, so that the team is facing the pain of transformation!
For the Jinmen Tigers, if they do not carry out technical and tactical transformation, they will not be able to get rid of the fate of "small wealth is peace" with the existing cards! Choosing to take the initiative to transform is an unknown adventure.
