Champions League: Pharmaceutical factory’s wing play against the strongest sides in football, can new coach Jurmand create surprises?

Champions League: Bayer Leverkusen vs Paris (Tuesday 012)

[Basic introduction]

Leverkusen fired Tenghai Tenhahe who had only led the team for two rounds due to kickbacks. After new coach Jumand took office, he led the team to remain undefeated in 7 games and successfully led the pharmaceutical company to stop the decline. Xia Chuang's meritorious coach Alonso and most of the main players have left the team. The focus of the new season is mainly on completing reconstruction.

After Urmand took office, a total of 11 players aged 23 and under have been given the chance to play. Looking at this trend, over time the pharmaceutical company will be able to train several high-priced players and sell them to make a lot of money.

Tactically, Urmande returned to the three-center-back system of the Alonso era, abandoning the ineffective ball control during the Ten Hag era and emphasizing quick passing and direct attack. In the last round, they faced Mainz, a fellow Danish team that defended in a low position. The pharmaceutical company broke the deadlock through crosses from the wing and set kicks.

Urmande's focus on the wing allowed wing-back Grimaldo to shine. Grimaldo transformed from a full-back into a "wide midfielder", with three central defenders behind him to fill in, allowing him to focus on offense. Grimaldo is currently the core of the pharmaceutical company's offense, ranking first in the team in goals and assists, and also in the number of chances created.

The biggest hidden danger in this game is the personnel problem. The main players including midfielder Palacios and Hoffman, defender Vazquez, and strikers Terra and Tillman are all injured. Although Schick and Kwansa returned to the squad, Schick only came on for the last 15 minutes to warm up before the game, while Kwansa trained alone on the sidelines. It is actually unlikely that the two will play.

In the absence of Tillman, Hoffman and Tra, the frontcourt can only give new summer signing Mazza a chance. The 19-year-old youngster was still playing in the Bundesliga 2 last season. He came on the bench several times in the new season but did not perform well. But there is no other way, no one has any choice but to pay tuition for young players.

In the new season, Paris' focus has been on the Champions League and the league, followed by the Champions League. After returning from the international match, facing Strasbourg, KK, Pacho, Mendes, Achraf, Vitinha and other main players without injuries were on standby on the bench, with obvious intentions of preserving their physical fitness.

There are two reasons why Paris focuses on the Champions League. First, the Ligue 1 broadcasting fee has been significantly reduced. The situation is already very serious. If Paris cannot support Ligue 1 in the Champions League, Ligue 1 will only become more uninterested, not to mention the increase in broadcasting fees.

Another point is the issue of league points coefficient. The fifth-ranked Ligue 1 has little advantage against the Eredivisie behind it. If it is overtaken by the Eredivisie and others in the following years, it will affect Ligue 1’s European war seats, and of course it will also affect Ligue 1’s broadcasts. Currently, Ligue 1 can only rely on Paris to score points in the European war.

In terms of personnel, Paris' injuries have improved. New Golden Globe winner Dembele and main center back Marquinhos have even recovered from injuries and entered the squad. Currently, only two midfielders, Neves and Ruiz, are left as the main injured players.

[Conclusion]

The initial data shows that Paris has reached the 3rd level threshold as a guest. This threshold is not low. Last season, Bayern only got the 1st level advantage as a guest against pharmaceutical companies. Although the strength of Pharmaceutical Factory has declined a lot in the new season, Paris only gave Stuttgart, who is also from the Bundesliga, 1st place last season. The image of Pharmaceutical Factory, which is undefeated in 7 games at this stage, is naturally not inferior to Stuttgart.

From a tactical point of view, the pharmaceutical company is very dangerous. The new coach mainly plays on the wing, and the core players are also on the wing. However, Paris’ two sides are almost the strongest in football at present. The side confrontation, the pharmaceutical company is very disadvantaged. In terms of personnel, it is inevitably a bit overwhelming to let a group of children under the age of 23 deal with the Champions League champions.

The fighting spirit of the two teams is also unequal. In the weekend league match, the new coach of Pharmaceutical Factory gave his best against the main force of his old club coached by his fellow countrymen, and made no reservations for the European war in mid-week.

On the contrary, Paris has rested a large number of its main players and ushered in the return of two key players. It also has certain advantages in terms of physical fitness.

And Paris currently has the mission of maintaining the image of the five major French leagues. Although it may not be so noble, coach Enrique also mentioned the importance of early points in the Champions League. After all, had it not been for the thrilling defeat of Liverpool in the play-offs last season, there would have been no new champions of the Champions League. Who would be willing to take the risk of the play-offs again if they can securely qualify.
