On January 18, 2000, he will face Duisburg at home, which is the first game of the second half of the season.

After leaving Ze Roberto, many media were analyzing Leverkusen's tactical direction.

"Kickers" believes that Woller should play in the 442 formation, Stefan Beinrich was originally a left-footed player, and he should return to the left, and Barack may play in the right forward position.

They guessed it right, and this is what Waller's current adjustment is.

Barack must have made some sacrifices because he has never played the right forward position. However, the activity area given by Wallar is quite flexible, and can be either right or center, and does not limit his position to the right forward position.

Of course, his combat effectiveness has definitely declined. It is better to have been amazing in the middle lane, and this obviously sacrifices his long-range shooting ability. Most of the time, Barack is crossing.

As for breakthroughs?

His breakthrough ability is average.

In the training ground these days, Barack has been playing the right forward, and of course he feels a little unhappy, but he blames all the reasons on Ze Roberto who left. If it weren't for Ze Roberto, he wouldn't have appeared in this position! He can play the front midfielder comfortably.

Originally, he still had the opportunity to play as a midfielder. If Waller played as a 451 formation, but because of the lack of breakthrough hand-held Roberto, Waller prefers to play as a 442. And when playing as a weak team like Duisburg at home, Waller himself was embarrassed to use a single striker, so he sent Barack's style of play to the right forward.

Judging from the training effect, the effect is not very good, but it is not bad either, because Barak frequently inserts and cuts inwardly, and gets the ball through active running. This is more active than Beinrich when he was on the right side, but it is naturally much worse than Barak who has always appeared in the middle side.

"My assists, my goals, seem to be leaving with me."

When he walked into Bayer Arena, he was sighing all the time. "In fact, it can be completely allowed to play the left forward, and I will continue to play the middle."

"Well, that's the coach doesn't trust another Brazilian."

His mouth kept lingering.

"Zheng,"

"You remember to pass the ball to me."

"If I can't score the goal, I will try to help everyone."

Zheng Zhi nodded, "Don't worry, as long as you run out of the position, the ball will definitely arrive!"

"I promise."

In fact, he did not agree with Waller putting Barack in the right forward position. Although the position was flexible, Barack was really not used to it.

Barack played in this position in his previous life, and the effect was quite bad. It may not be a big problem when encountering an ordinary team, but when encountering a strong confrontation, it will be a bit of a waste of talent.

Before the game started, Zheng Zhi showed his best goal award, which was an exquisite villain who was showing his shooting posture.

Zheng Zhi's name was immediately shouted at the scene.

"Zheng Zhi,"

"Zheng Zhi,"

"Zheng Zhi!"

Ribery also appeared in the stands and became excited inexplicably.

This is his role model.

What a glorious thing to win world-class honors and then show them in front of your own fans!

"Zheng Zhi showed his best goal award, which is the honor his elevator ball brings to him."

"People feel happy when they are happy, so Zheng Zhi has hope to continue scoring today."

"But without Ze Roberto, Leverkusen's attack power will definitely decline."

"I just don't know how much it will drop?"

"The core Zheng Zhizai is not a big problem for him to win Rostock."

"With Bayern, Ze Roberto just sat on the bench and did not get the starting position."

"It should be that it is not possible to integrate into Bayern's tactical system for the time being, otherwise Heathfield should give him a chance."

"How can I say that Bayern has always been one of the best clubs in the Bundesliga and even Europe. Of course, players cannot refuse temptation. There is an old saying in China - if people don't care for themselves, they will be punished by heaven and earth. It's nothing wrong with him making such a choice. He is just sorry for Leverkusen and his comrades."

"In Leverkusen, it's not necessarily true in Bayern Munich. No one can easily replace Bayern's midfield."

Anyway, Ze Roberto's psychology is like that - he would rather cry in a BMW than laugh on a bicycle...

After Zheng Zhi showed off the prize, the competition quickly began.

The Duisburg coach's tactics against Leverkusen were very clear. Beinrich and Barak did not have much breakthrough ability. He used two wing forwards to tightly pinch them, and then focused the defensive forces in the middle to carry out targeted defense.

Not to mention, this move is quite effective. Although Leverkusen basically controls the rhythm on the field, it is difficult to get any shooting opportunities in a while. Although Buldaric has been added to Kirsten, Beinrich and Barack are unlikely to do on the sidelines. If Ze Roberto is there, at least the left side can make the opponent panic.

Zheng Zhi started to roll the ball to both sides, but Beinrich and Barak both chose to pass the ball back to him or Emerson, and waited for him to organize, and the other party had already retreated.

Then he tried to play the top ball, but the assisting defense of the two full-backs and full-backs also made Barack and the others helpless.

Waller couldn't stand it anymore, and Leverkusen's offense had never been so weak.

It’s a bit unreasonable to say that the winter break has just returned and there is no state. All the main players have been sent.

It is because the team lacks Ze Roberto, and the team lacks a sharp offense.

He grabbed Zheng Zhi and Emerson on the sidelines and said a few words, and made adjustments to the formation.

Emerson continued to drag behind, Zheng Zhi's position was ahead of schedule.

Equivalent to a single back!

Waller doesn't want to get a draw in the first game after the New Year, let alone home court.

“Yo,”

"This formation is now 4132, which is very aggressive."

"Actually, I can play 352, move one of the defenders to the midfield and liberate Zheng Zhi and Barak. Anyway, the opponent is weak. If you are single midfielder, I feel it is a bit dangerous."

"But it's not a big deal, but the Novotney position behind has also moved forward, basically the same."

After Zheng Zhi came up, his situation improved much better. His position almost reached about ten meters in the front of Duisburg's penalty area! The opponent's midfielder Marcus Ostov had to follow Zheng Zhi closely.

Although Leverkusen's possession further competed for the ball, he still could not tear the opponent's defense.

"Missing a breakout hand from the side,"

"Zheng Zhi was seen too dead."

"Bayern is now leading 2:0, and Leverkusen still failed to score."

"Barak just made a cross from the wing, and he probably can't adapt to the new position."

"The teammates basically didn't handle the ball that Zheng Zhi divided."

Before the end of the half, Zheng Zhi took the ball in the middle, turned his back to Ostov and chose to cleverly hit the ball, but was knocked down by Ostov.

"elevator!"

"elevator!"

"elevator!"

Bayer Arena shouted "Elevator" on the spot, and they wanted to see Zheng Zhi score with the elevator ball again.

However, the foul was at the top of the arc of the penalty area. The shooting distance was too close, so it was difficult to kick the elevator ball out.

As a result, Zheng Zhi kicked a curved ball inside the instep. The ball failed to fly over the wall and directly hit the opponent's player and bounced out. This time the free kick did not pose a threat.

"Why don't you play the elevator ball?"

"It's changed to an inner instep arc."

The fans in the stands were very confused. Now they abandoned the best goal award they won with the elevator ball?

"Elevator ball? How can you kick it at such a close distance? Have you never read the newspaper to analyze the elevator ball? If it is too close to the goal, the arc cannot be pulled out at all, so you can only kick the inner instep."

Halftime ends, 0:0.

Leverkusen had not scored this score in the first half of the Bundesliga last season.

Bretner of German Sports TV said during the intermission: "Heres' transfer strategy during the winter break is right."

"Poaching Ze Roberto would be like cutting off half of Leverkusen's arm."

"Now the effect has been seen. They only completed four-foot shots in the first half, and even had few crosses."

"It seems that Bayern beat Leverkusen in the standings. Unfortunately, if one more is poached, this Leverkusen will not be a climate and will not have any threat to Bayern."

Bretner is still unsatisfied.

"In the past, everyone attributed the credit to Zheng Zhi, but now it seems that we have exaggerated his role? Ze Roberto's role in Leverkusen was underestimated. Perhaps this is why Heness did this? It was not very eye-catching, but it was very good."

"I don't know what adjustments will be made in the second half of Waller? I think he has no cards to play, so I guess he will be replaced by Neuville and Brazilian Ponte."

"Or it would be to adjust Barack to the middle lane."

Waller was also quite puzzled in the locker room. He kept pointing out that the offensive firepower on the wing was not strong enough, but he didn't consider that Beinrich hadn't played on the left for a long time, and Barack was the first time he played the right forward in the game. The opponent was also targeting defense, so it was normal that the effect would not come out for a while.

"Boss, if we don't let me play back to the middle, we don't have to change ourselves. Without Ze Roberto before, wouldn't we still win?"
