Because it is a weekend party with a few fans and friends, the topic can't be separated from the last two quarterfinals of the European Cup that started this morning. Although it was predicted that Denmark and England would join hands to advance to the semi-finals, it was really surprising that southgate's team swept Ukraine 4-0.
Counting Italy and Spain, which are quietly preparing for the war, only Britain or Ding Bai has one champion in terms of the number of champions in the semi-finals of this European Cup; However, the youth army has fierce firepower and strong defense. Ace center Kane opened a goal account after the last round of Anglo-German war, and this round has a double ring-the British media took the opportunity to make a big splash on Kane, and later became the European Cup champion+top scorer.
For many fanatical Premier League fans, it is naturally very happy to see Kane leading England to make persistent efforts to achieve a breakthrough in the European Cup championship. Although it is difficult to break through the encirclement of Italy (or Spain) and Denmark-there is still an ideal, in case it is realized again.
Why did the European Cup show an obvious strength gap-the first achievement in youth training
Looking back on England's road to promotion so far, it can be described as uneventful. What is truly memorable is the 2-0 victory over the old enemy Germany; The remaining old Croatia and the new European army Ukraine, which almost exhausted their physical strength, actually did not pose much threat at all.
Although the above judgment is inevitably suspected of winning or losing, it is difficult to become the mainstream opinion at any time because there are other standards that can be unanimously recognized by most fans in football.
As for this time, although England left Wembley and flew to Rome, Italy, it obviously occupied a certain advantage in physical strength. In fact, the last round of Ukraine's bitter fight 120 minutes was very lucky. If Sweden had changed to Germany, Shevchenko might have packed his bags and gone home.
In fact, the history of the European Cup, such as Denmark and Greece, two extremely rare champions, was later defined as fairy tales or myths-strength+luck is not the normal state of the European Cup, which is called the highest level of football.
On the other hand, England, Italy, Spain and other old giants, most players choose to play for their respective domestic leagues; The theoretical basis behind this commonality comes from the current mainstream leagues in Europe. The standards of Premier League, La Liga and Serie A are far ahead of other countries.
The success of "takenism" depends on the cooperation between coaches and players.
However, in the final analysis, youth training exists for the continuous delivery of qualified reserve forces for high-level leagues-by the way, retired German coach Loew publicly complained that the quality of domestic youth training has seriously declined in the last decade, which is a reflection on the failure of the European Cup in advance.
Furthermore, fans who are familiar with the development trend of European football know very well that the English youth team has recently won the championship at all levels in Europe and the world-far from quenching their thirst, and these achievements are far from enough to prove that the Premier League will soon surpass La Liga and throw Serie A out of several places.
Back to the front of the article, we repeatedly stressed that Denmark, the Netherlands and other countries have high-quality youth training, but why can't it simply be equated with leading the league-the greatest tolerance for different styles of coaches and various styles of play (the so-called eclecticism) is one of the direct boosters that have stood at the league level for a long time.
Then use this standard to measure La Liga and Serie A, and the charm of attracting world-class coaches from abroad continues to decline; Although the reasons are complicated, they can never be easily ruled out-Italy and Spain are too conceited and complacent about their successful football concepts in the past and cannot accept the impact of new forces.
Compared with Mourinho's insistence that Kane must change the traditional center kick method, Guardiola insisted on breaking through the ribs with small fast wings, and klopp solemnly launched a new tactical concept of high-position attack, supplemented by two-wing high-speed channel and involved center-all successful teams in this European Cup partially absorbed the essence of the above wisdom, so there are many examples.
In this sense, southgate, a little-known English coach, has benefited a lot this time-predictably, he used the principle of "bringing in", which is the result of years of painstaking research by famous coaches Mourinho, Guardiola and klopp, which just fits this group of leading players in England.
Conclusion: Mourinho predicted that Mancini would have the last laugh.
This can be understood as: southgate dares to let Manchester United pull Herford and Everton Lei Wen substitute for the presence on the premise that the overall situation has been set; I think Dassault had confidently responded to Mourinho before, saying that there was no rotation capital in World War I with Ukraine-expecting the young England coach to win a bold surprise victory, he should have forgotten that his coaching career had never experienced the cruel test of a long league.
Of course, Mourinho also said that he would not consider coaching a national team until ten years later, but before that, England and even Brazil, the football kingdom, had solemnly invited Mourinho-and then switched to Guardiola and klopp: as long as the two famous coaches nodded in agreement, Enrique and Frick, who had not yet taken office, might step down and make way.
In short, Mourinho has repeatedly supported Italy and looked down on England, even though southgate led the youth team to a 4-0 victory over Ukraine. In Mourinho's view, who has fought in the Premier League for many years and has rich combat experience, it is natural to predict that Mancini will have the last laugh in a certain sense. ! !
