Chapter 215 Recruiting People Again
The result of the match was exactly as Li Yanqing had predicted.
They initially handled things well, but after losing their rhythm, they quickly conceded a goal and were completely thrown off balance.
After they finally got used to it, Burton changed their formation back to 4-2-3-1 by making substitutions.
Ultimately, they conceded another goal in the second half.
Burton won the semi-final 2-0.
In the words of the commentator, the key to this victory was not the players, but the overwhelming tactical dominance.
However, Lyman seemed a little unhappy when Li Yanqing made another bet with Neville.
He doesn't doubt the strength of his own team, after all, he personally led them in training for almost a whole year.
However, he finds it somewhat unacceptable to casually bring tactics that have only been practiced for a short time to the field.
If you keep doing this, you'll eventually crash and burn.
"The next match is against West Ham United."
Are you really going to continue using 4-2-4?
"They are much more difficult to deal with than Crystal Palace..."
"It's okay." Li Yanqing didn't notice the former's change in mood; he was sitting in front of the computer creating a spreadsheet.
"The result was pretty good, wasn't it?"
"They were fully adapted within twenty minutes of the start of the game."
"I think with a slight modification, it could be used to deal with West Ham United."
He dared to do this for two reasons. First, Everton, who are currently in eighth place, have recently suffered three consecutive defeats, and the gap between them and Everton has widened to six points.
Burton doesn't have many strong opponents left this season, so they have a high margin for error.
Secondly, he really wasn't just messing around.
On the contrary, I think this way of kicking is a great idea.
The 4-2-3-1 formation that was used throughout the season resulted in significantly more losses in the second half of the season.
Once opponents start studying their playing style, one lineup will not be enough.
Since securing a Europa League spot shouldn't be a problem, we might as well practice other tactics in advance.
With Joe Hart and the others back on the team, there shouldn't be any major problems in the next game.
"Ok."
"But be careful about the score difference."
"At this stage, I'm afraid the team will suddenly falter..."
Before coming to Burton, Lyman was Professor Wenger's assistant.
Speaking of this, we have to mention the minor flaws of his former employer, which few coaches can tolerate.
"Don't worry, Jens."
"With me here, the team will be fine."
"At least my competitive form is guaranteed."
Li Yanqing suddenly looked at the former, and he understood what the other person was worried about.
But this is precisely what makes him so different from others.
He hasn't fully succeeded in training skills or removing negative attributes yet, but isn't maintaining a certain status easy?
Just looking at it is enough.
Lyman didn't say anything more, nodded, and walked straight out.
A few minutes later.
He arrived at the training ground.
"Cazorla, you were looking for me?"
“Yes, Jens.” Cazorla had been waiting at the training ground for a while, and immediately went over to him after seeing him come out.
"I want to talk about what I told you last time."
"Don't even think about it, I don't think it's possible," Lyman said decisively, shaking his head.
"You can see how fast Justin has grown. How much was his transfer fee when he joined the club?"
"But now he's the team's second-best penetrator."
"As for Baselli, needless to say, he's a regular starting defensive midfielder."
"Li values them more than anything else and won't allow them to transfer."
Cazorla has decided to return at the end of this season, and both clubs have now reached an agreement.
However, when he returned to Arsenal before, he recommended two players, Baselli and Justin, to the club.
After careful consideration, current Arsenal manager Unai Emery believes this is the right choice.
However, their offer last time did not meet Li Yanqing's expectations, so it was rejected outright.
"I have convinced the club that they can raise the transfer fee to 60 million pounds."
"But having stayed here for so long, I don't think the boss would agree to this price."
Cazorla's words made Lyman nod involuntarily. At least until now, they both believed they understood what kind of person Li Yanqing was.
"So, you need to go and persuade him."
"Believe me, this time we are very sincere."
"You'll find out when we talk about it."
Cazorla was clearly there as a lobbyist, but he knew he had little hope of persuading Li Yanqing, so he sought help from Lyman.
As for the latter, he thought for a moment before speaking.
Have you talked to either of them about this?
“If they were willing, this would be much easier to handle.”
"Although Arsenal's performance has been very inconsistent this season, they are still much more attractive than Burton."
As we all know, the most important factors in a transfer are the wishes of the club and the player himself.
Clubs' attempts to force players to sell or retain them rarely end well.
“Of course I said that,” Cazorla replied.
"Baselli hasn't said anything, but Justin is still very willing to transfer."
"But the team wants both of them to buy together, so in the end it depends on what the boss thinks."
"Okay, I'll give it a try." Since someone wanted to transfer there, Lyman was willing to give it a shot.
"However, I'm not very confident of success."
“You know, I’ve never been able to convince him.”
After speaking, Lehmann looked at the players on the field.
"You could try going to Chris and Barker."
"They would really like to make this transfer happen, but the chances aren't very high."
"Li has all the decision-making power over the team."
"I will go..."
At this moment, Li Yanqing was unaware that his players were being targeted again.
Moreover, it wasn't just Basselli and Justin.
He was still working on the table he had recently compiled.
It wasn't anything particularly important; he simply categorized the players' abilities into different levels to make it easier for him to assess their strengths.
These aren't on the entry panel, but he can assign them to his own players.
Anyway, nobody knows...
