I have seen Barcelona play football, and now even fake fans should have heard of ‘tiki-taka’, which is well-known for passing and controlling football terms. What would it look like if there was a tactic that was completely opposite to Barcelona’s football philosophy?

It's what Leicester City looks like.

Last season, Leicester City averaged 43.07% ball possession rate, not only the Premier League, but also the champion team with the lowest ball possession rate in the history of the five major leagues; the pass success rate is 69.3%, not only the lowest in the Premier League, but also ranked among the top five European leagues.

Fifth last place.

The third-last short pass per game, and even the success rate of long passes on which he survived was only 36.6%. Leicester City only had one lead in the Premier League last season - the shooting conversion rate.

Leicester City actually plays anti-modern and anti-trend football, and can also be called the simplest football. After explaining it thoroughly, there are actually two points: low-post defense and long passes to counterattack.

"Tubingman" Ranieri combined the most traditional, or most decadent skills of Italian football and English football, and it was very purely combined, which made him the Premier League champion in the troubled times last season.

There is no best tactic, only the most suitable tactics, will the kings, princes, generals and ministers still have a way! A grassroots counterattack like Leicester City should win the praise of fans all over the world, even if it is just from the long-term perspective of football.

The same is true.

But this season, Leicester City is in a difficult situation. After all, their tactics are too simple. Just a few moves. Now all opponents will put their defenses back when facing the Blue Foxes, and will not give Leicester City space to counterattack.

, and then use more tricks to slowly defeat them.

After 14 rounds, Leicester City won 3 wins, 4 draws 7 losses and 13 points, ranking 16th in the standings, with a total of 20 teams in the Premier League. During the same period last season, Leicester City ranked first with 29 points.

Before Manchester City visited, Leicester City had lost 5 rounds, and lost 1:2 to Sunderland, who was relegated to the relegation zone. The chief scorer Jamie Valdy has only two goals in the league so far.

It looks very similar to the flashy cereal figure who reveals its true form.

However, Leicester City performed well in the Champions League group stage this season, surpassing Porto to qualify as the first in Group G. Perhaps the European team is not familiar with their jaw-dropping "trend" tactics.

In the European game, after qualifying early with 4 wins and 1 draw in the first 5 games, Leicester City also passed the last game with a substitute lineup three days ago, but was beaten 5:0 by Porto at the Dragon Stadium.

Leicester City, under Ranieri, is the team with the least rotation of the main lineup among the Premier League princes. This somewhat embarrassing but in fact irrelevant defeat finally made the main players breathe a sigh of relief. In today's game, the main goalkeeper was small

Schmeichel had not recovered from a finger fracture a month ago, and the other major men were basically full.

On the other hand, Manchester City was quite desolate. Aguero, Febion and Otamendi were suspended, and captain Kompani was injured, which eliminated half of the lineup.

Today, Leicester City's starting goalkeeper is 28-year-old Robert Ziller, who has transferred from Hannover 96 this summer.

In the 2014 World Cup, Ziller lost to the then-Madibor goalkeeper Ter Stegen in the competition for the third goalkeeper of the German national team, and also lost the opportunity to become a world champion. This is another form of

Hannover Derby.

Ziller left because Hannover was at the bottom of the Bundesliga last season and was relegated.

The home stadium of Leicester City is called Imperial Power Stadium, which is named after the Thai boss. Chinese tourists who have been to Thailand know that there will definitely be a duty-free shop on their journey. That’s right, this industry is Weichai, the owner of Leicester City

of.

When Zhuo Yang and his teammates walked into the Royal Stadium, the original drizzle had turned into moderate rain, and there was no sign that it would stop for a short time.

The Imperial Stadium is very ordinary and even simple. There are not many stadiums without ceilings in the five major leagues, and there is one here. Such a stadium only meets the most basic requirements for competitions and watching games.

It is certain that the court and the weather are so slippery, and even if it doesn't rain, the Leicester City Club will fill the turf with water. Manchester City, which pays attention to extreme ball control and ground passes, cannot be said to be afraid of such turf, but it is certain

I prefer to be dry and moderate.

Guardiola sent Sabaretta, Stones, Kolarov and Sarnia on the back line today. The 15th round of the Premier League, this is the 15th set of defense line combinations that Guardiola has discharged, and every game is not the same

, there is a fresh feeling every day.

Fernando replaced Febion as defensive midfielder, Gundogan, Dintin, Silva, Navas, and the "Manchester City Prince" Isinacho is ahead.

Seeing the four defenders on the list, the media thought Guardiola had "turned back to justice" and gave up the stubborn and tight-knit three central defenders. However, after the game began, everyone realized that Guardiola was indeed a stubborn man who insisted on himself.

The nominal right-back Zabaleta's position is actually even higher than Fernando and Gundogan, and he is obviously a right forward, and Manchester City is actually still the defensive system of three central defenders.

Guardiola is indeed a persistent and pure man who goes his own way. All the Premier League champions know that facing Leicester City, they must lean back to the formation and defense line, and maximize the space for Blue Fox to fight back. They chop off their

If you have a hand, the game will basically be left with the question of how much you win.

But the essence of Gua's tactics is ball control and high-level pressing and oppression. If he sets the defense line too far behind, he is not him. So Gua Shin-kun knowingly made a mistake today, he must push the defense line to the midfield to make Leicester City comfortable.

Fight back.

To be honest, Guardiola is suspected of stretching Manchester City's neck into the noose in Leicester City.

Jamie Vardy is in a bad mood recently. It is just one aspect that he has not played well in football this season. Two days ago, my dad accused him of his indifference to his parents in the media, which made Vardy feel terrible.

When Vardy's father was very young, he ran away with other women. His mother took him to remarry her current husband Philip Valdy, so his surname actually came from his stepfather, and he had no feelings for his biological father.

His stepfather was very good to Vardy and picked him up and dropped him off to the court for training every day when he was a child. When he was in a low-level league, his stepfather always encouraged him and provided financial support to him as much as possible from his meager salary of workers.

Stepfather Philip treated Vardy much better than most of his own fathers.

Vardy's relationship with his parents broke down because of his wife.

During the New Year in 2014, 27-year-old Vardy met 33-year-old Rebecca Nicholson in a nightclub in Sheffield. She works in a nightclub, and the two fell in love at first sight.

When he met Vardy, Rebecca had just divorced and had three children following her, and these three children were three fathers. After knowing Vardy for a month, Rebecca's belly was replaced with another

The fourth man's child is Vardy's.

Such women are never good at making trouble, they can't become great, but they are proficient in social survival rules. Almost no man in the world can subdue them.

But Vardy surrendered to Rebecca. On the other hand, she could surrender. Vardy and Rebecca who struggled from the bottom are actually the same type of people. It is better to make a philistine's market tyrants to be exquisite white lotus.

In short, love has come. No matter how others sneer, the two of them have recognized each other. Vardy's friends, teammates, parents, and the whole world strongly oppose him and Rebecca being together, but is it useful? This kind of thing has become more and more effective.

The more you stop, the more you persuade, the less you turn back.

The turtle ate the weight, and Vardy ate the anchor.

On May 25 this year, Valdi and Rebecca, who had been in love for two years, held a wedding. Neither his parents nor relatives came to attend because they were indeed disgusted with Rebecca's daughter-in-law.

It is said that on Valdy's wedding day, stepfather Philip was so sad that he cried loudly at home.

From that day on, Vardy cut off all contacts with her parents, and even did not call or answer the phone, which led to the accusations and complaints from her stepfather in the media.
