Deng Kai nodded, "No problem. They want to mark me, right? I'll go up front and specifically make them mark me there."
"Their midfielders Amorim and Vieira have mediocre creativity to begin with. Once Amorim follows me, Vieira alone can't support Benfica's offense."
"Without the creative passes from the midfield, even if the football reaches the feet of Benfica's forwards, our defense line should still be stable."
"Besides, if I move forward, that leaves a spot in the midfield. Just put in a midfielder who's good at defense and running."
Maxa took out paper and pen, started to write down Deng Kai's requests, and also added his own thoughts: "Why take off Marcelino? He's a right winger, but he can play on the left as well."
"On the other hand, Lorenzo, the center-forward, seemed very uncomfortable playing on the left in the first half."
