This is also consistent with the military intelligence expectations before the game.

41212 is actually a variation of 433. The difference is that 41212 is more offensive.

This season, Brighton relied on rapid explosive attacks in the middle to overcome all obstacles and reach the second place in the English League One.

Although this game is not in the English Football League One, it is the first match between the No. 1 and No. 2 teams in English Football League One.

Brighton naturally still wants to rely on its ability to organize attacks in the middle to break through Southampton's defense.

Brighton's head coach is Uruguay's former top star Gustavo Poyet.

Without exaggeration or understatement, when Gustavo Poyet was a player, he was definitely a first-class star known to every household in the Premier League.

Poyet is 188cm tall and weighs 83kg. He has the tough playing style of a typical South American midfielder.

For a normal person, 188cm and 83kg are nothing, but for a professional player, 188cm and 83kg means that their whole body is made of muscle, which can be very scary when they are hit.

Especially in the early football environment in South America, it is not an exaggeration to say that it was murderous football.

Poyet is very strong in heading, but what is really amazing is his organizational ability and his ability to intercept and break through in the midfield.

The so-called blasting ability, to put it bluntly, is to rely solely on personal ability to defend and break through, which is the nature of advanced engineers. This is different from the joint stranglehold, but as long as the players are strong enough, blasting is more threatening than stranglehold.

Poyet is very aggressive, powerful and full of fighting spirit. His fierce fighting style as a South American player also makes his Premier League opponents fear him.

What's more important is that Poyet is not a reckless man. In addition to his explosive attributes, he has a good football IQ. When he was at Chelsea and Tottenham, he played as a No. 8 player. He has first-class organizational skills and can often break the deadlock in the chaotic midfield with his personal ability.

Poyet is also known as the "all-around midfielder" who can defend, attack, organize and counterattack.

In 2000, he was awarded the title of "England's Best Foreign Aid" by the Premier League.

You know, there are a large number of foreign players in the Premier League, and many of them are world-class stars. It is absolutely awesome to be officially certified as the best foreign player in England.

After retiring in 2004, Poyet first worked as a tactical coach for Leeds United, and returned to Tottenham as a youth team coach in 2007. In 2009, the big boss Tony Bloom analyzed the big data system of gambling and picked out the cheap and affordable Poyet at a glance, so Poyet became the head coach of the Seagulls.

This is also Poyet's first time as head coach. He does not have much coaching experience, but his midfield explosion concept has indeed brought a new experience to Brighton.

His coaching style is tough, emphasizing physical confrontation and preferring offensive football, which has also made him popular with many fans.

After that, Poyet also served as head coach of Sunderland in the Premier League, AEK Athens in Greece and Real Betis in La Liga.

It is worth mentioning that in 2016, Poyet came to China full of confidence and served as the head coach of Shenhua. Then less than a year later, Poyet found that he could not lead Shenhua at all, so he resigned voluntarily and went to Ligue 1. Later, he was hired by the Greek team as the head coach of the Greek national team.

——Such a head coach with a star career is still very worthy of a try.

Gu Ran secretly concentrated his mind and aimed at Boyet.

Poyet, who was watching his team in the rain, trembled slightly and shuddered, as if something happened, but also as if nothing happened.

A purple light that only Gu Ran could see flew out from Boyet's body and went straight into Gu Ran's eyebrows.

Super Midfielder: +1 for overwhelming power.

good!

This is Poyet’s most powerful midfield explosive skill!

With this skill, Gu Ran will be able to play more freely and easily in the midfield.

After taking it, Gu Ran turned his attention to Brighton's starting lineup today -

Brighton's two center forwards are the 23-year-old Argentine calf: No. 11 Christian Baz, and the 18-year-old New Zealand kid: Chris Wood.

Christian Baz cannot play for the Argentina national team, or even the youth team, but his ability is definitely not bad. It can only be said that there are too many football talents in Argentina.

Baz, who is 180cm tall and weighs 75kg, has the tough playing style of a South American player. He has plenty of physical energy, is naturally very aggressive and has strong explosive power. He is also a left-footed player who can play not only as a center forward, but also as an inside forward (inverted left winger).

His biggest feature is that he can often get the ball in the left rib area of ​​the midfield, and his explosive power and dribbling skills also make him very difficult to defend, and he can often pass deadly balls.

Another center forward, Chris Wood, is even more amazing.

Although Chris Wood is only 18 years old, he was able to show his talent in the 2007 World Youth Championship when he was 15 years old.

Chris Wood is currently 189cm tall (will grow to 191cm later) and weighs 89kg. He is definitely a heavy tank. Basically, ordinary defenders will be knocked away by a collision with Chris Wood.

So far, Chris Wood has been selected for the New Zealand national team 16 times and has scored 2 goals for the New Zealand national team.

Chris Wood joined the youth team of the then Premier League team West Bromwich at the age of 16, was later promoted to the reserve team, and made his Premier League debut at the age of 17. After West Bromwich was relegated to the Championship, Brighton took the opportunity to loan this young player in with full salary and bonus.

The forward combination of Christian Baz and Chris Wood is definitely a forward combination that can cause a huge impact on Southampton's defense.

Brighton's attacking midfielder is the 23-year-old all-rounder, No. 31 Craig Noone.

This player is a typical player selected by big data.

First of all, this player started from the amateur league. He played for amateur teams Bosquelle Club and Southport Club in the 2007-08 season. Later, because of his outstanding performance, he skipped directly to the then Championship team Plymouth in 2009. Then he was spotted by Brighton and loaned over.

He is 23 years old this year and became a professional player at the age of 21. If he were an ordinary football player, he would have given up and started to live a lazy life.

It is also because of his long-term involvement in amateur leagues that Craig Nunn has acquired a set of skills: such as fighting and group fights.

Of course, since amateur leagues are often short of players, Craig Nunn has developed the ability to play in multiple positions.

His best position is left forward, but he can also play as left midfielder, left wingback, left back, attacking midfielder, midfielder, and occasionally as a defensive midfielder. He can also play as right winger, right midfielder, and forward.

It can be said that he can play basically any other position except center back and goalkeeper.

The reason why he cannot play as a center back or goalkeeper is that he is relatively short, only 175cm tall. Defenders, especially center backs, need to defend against high balls from the front and crosses from the wings, which has strict requirements on height.

Craig Nunn is very flexible and has a rich imagination in his positioning. He has good dribbling skills and likes to run forward when he has the chance. He likes to dribble with the ball, change direction, and accelerate past opponents. He can often make lethal passes while being double-teamed.

He will also be the focus of Southampton's defense today.

Brighton's two starting midfielders were No. 10 Matt Sparrow and No. 7 Conor Clifford.

Matt Sparrow is 27 years old this year. He played for the Championship team Scunthorpe United before 2009 and was signed by Brighton after 2009. He is very strong in confrontation, has rich experience in the midfield and frontcourt, is active in positioning, has excellent physical fitness, good passing awareness, and a good long shot. He is a midfielder with explosive qualities.

Of course, Brighton bought him mainly because he was cheap, hardworking, and experienced.

Another midfielder, Conor Clifford, 19, is on loan from Chelsea.

Chelsea has too many calves, Conor Clifford is just one of them.

Clifford is currently only 173cm tall, but he is very flexible, has superb footwork, outstanding ability in penalties and free kicks, and is very good at stopping and passing the ball. Although he is only 173cm tall and weighs 71kg, he is not bad at all in terms of confrontation on the field, and has good speed and explosiveness.

Moreover, Clifford is still growing. After all, he is only 19 years old now, and he will still grow taller when he is 25, so his final height will be... 174cm.

It's just so magical.

Brighton's starting defensive midfielder is the No. 5 player from Argentina, Augustin Battipidi.

This player was also selected through the betting data model. He was bought from Argentina's third-level league together with No. 11 striker Christian Baz at a very, very cheap price.

Of course, Augustin Battipidi's abilities are also good. He is 186cm tall and weighs 74kg. He is very flexible, has balanced left and right feet, has first-class footwork, and also possesses the tough physical confrontation style of South American players.

Head coach Poyet also trained Batistuta as his explosive successor, but unfortunately... Batistuta failed to make a name for himself.

After all, you are not guaranteed to win every time you pick up a bargain. Even the intelligent AI selection of spinach needs to be upgraded and iterated.

Brighton's starting left-back is the 24-year-old Irish international, number 22 left-footed player Marcos Painter. The biggest feature of this player is his good marking and tackling skills, and he is also a maverick-type player.

Brighton's right back is Inigo Calderon, the No. 14 player who has played in the Spanish Second Division for a long time. The advantage of this player is that he has no disadvantages, and the disadvantage is that he has no characteristics. He is a standard and stable defender.

Although he had argued with referees before, he said that it was not entirely his fault.

Brighton's two central defenders are captain No. 3 Gordon Gill and No. 6 Adam El Aboud.

Both players are tall and strong center backs with good defensive positioning and very aggressive style.

Gordon is better at commanding defense and coordinating positions, while El Aboud is better at man-to-man collisions.

Finally, Brighton's starting goalkeeper is the 31-year-old No. 16 Danish goalkeeper, Casper Ankergren.

Casper Ankergren is 191cm tall and weighs 89kg. He is very good at 1v1 saves and penalty saves, and has very fast reactions, but his physical speed is not very fast.

In general, Brighton is almost a lineup of all young players! Today's game will also be the ultimate showdown between Southampton's super star and Brighton's all young players! Gu Ran clenched his fists slightly in the drizzle, and his eyes became sharp.

beep--

With the whistle of the referee, the second round of the knockout match of the British Championship South Division, Southampton's away challenge to Brighton officially began!
