"Just now, in the locker room, I told my players that I only have two and a half months left as Inter Milan's head coach."

This is how Mancini expressed his responsibility for the result of this disastrous defeat at the post-match press conference.

He said that although he still has four years left on his contract with Inter Milan, he will not stay there. He will leave this position after the end of this season, and this has nothing to do with tonight's rout.

But Mancini also emphasized again that he would not resign voluntarily before this happens.

"I know that someone must be responsible for tonight's game, and that person can only be me, and I am willing to take all the responsibilities, but what I want to say is that there are still twelve rounds of the league, and we are not yet fully

With the hope of losing the championship and the Italian Cup, I don’t think it is a responsible thing to resign at this time.”

"It's not difficult for me to resign, but I won't do it. It's not my character."

Mancini said that Inter Milan has only temporarily lost its position as the leader, but it does not mean that it has lost the championship.

"I want to congratulate Naples. They performed better and got the victory and top spot they deserved, but I also want to say that we have enough strength to get the top spot back."

"There are still twelve rounds of the league, and the next schedule is good for us. I think we still have a high probability of winning the double crown. We have not completely lost hope in the Champions League."

Mancini admitted that in order to fulfill what he just said, everyone in the team needs to perform at their best.

"This is difficult and not easy, but I believe we can do it."

Mancini's press conference was before Gao Shen.

When Gao Shen walked into the press conference, he had already heard some of Mancini's responses and replies.

Although Gao Shen didn't have a good impression of Mancini and felt that the guy was too arrogant and looked down upon others, he had to say that Mancini was still very responsible in handling this matter.

It's the same style as when he coached the team.

At this time, it is of course the simplest and easiest to leave. You can even shirk responsibility. After all, losing is not necessarily all the head coach's fault, so the hardest thing now is to continue to choose to stay.

Of course, what Mancini said, he will not resign voluntarily, the implication is that if Inter Milan feels that he is not suitable and wants to fire him, then he can accept it.

In fact, given Mancini's character, he probably wouldn't even ask for the termination fee and would just leave.

For this alone, Mancini deserves a thumbs up.

Therefore, when being interviewed by media reporters, Gao Shen took the initiative to defend Mancini, believing that Mancini's team has done a very good job. This season, there are 25 games and a total of 41 unbeaten games. This is very disappointing.

Surprising results.

He also said that this game was not enough to erase Mancini's contributions and achievements.

At the same time, Gao Shen also repeatedly emphasized, "We did not win the championship. We just relied on each other's performance advantages to temporarily top the list. This is the result of the joint efforts of all our team members, but we must continue to work hard!

"

Gao Shen said he was very satisfied with this victory.

More than a year ago, Napoli suffered a 0-3 defeat to Inter Milan at San Siro. That game has always been remembered by Gao Shen. Now they slaughtered Inter Milan 5-0 at home, which can be regarded as revenge for the original defeat.

But Gao Shen said with a smile that this is Naples' home court.

"I still hope that I can take revenge at the Meazza Stadium!"

The implication is that grudges at home should be avenged at home, and grudges at away games must be avenged on the road.

Of course, Gao Shen said it in an almost joking way.

Gao Shen spoke highly of this game, but he did not think Napoli was strong enough to defeat Inter Milan.

"From November last year to now, we first experienced a period of panic. Whether it was players or coaches, we lacked the experience to deal with this situation. However, during the winter break, we adjusted well and improved in all aspects.

The resources have also been greatly supplemented.”

Gao Shen said that adjustments during the winter break played a crucial role in Naples' improvement in form.

During this period, everyone from coaches to players to staff has made contributions to the best of their ability, which is why Naples is now in good shape and developing momentum.

"This is not the credit of any one person, but belongs to the whole team and everyone." Gao Shen emphasized again.

Gao Shen said that he and the coaching staff are very confident that the team's state can be sustained.

"In our plan, we will work hard to maintain this state and momentum until the end of the season."

Gao Shen believes that the trough period is the best time to test the team.

"What makes me most happy is that during this period of time, my players, my assistants, and everyone at the club have given me trust and support."

"Difficulties make us progress. This trough period has made us more united and worked harder. The team has shown gratifying progress, but I don't think the team has reached its peak. This is wrong.

."

"We are a team with an average age of only early 20s, not even 22 years old. Everyone who is familiar with professional football knows that this is not the age to reach the peak. We still have great potential that can be tapped.

."

Gao Shen believes that Naples' future will not just be in Serie A, but should look higher and further.

When the media asked him, is it the Champions League?

Gao Shen smiled and asked, "Why not?"

This is next season, or a longer-term goal. Gu Bi

Regarding the goal for this season, Gao Shen said that the team hopes to win the double championship.

Needless to say, the Serie A champion.

Now Naples is the leader of Serie A. If Gao Shen is still in this position and does not dare to call out this goal, it will be too hypocritical.

But Gao Shen also emphasized that winning the Serie A championship is not an easy task, because Naples still has many difficult challenges ahead, such as against Roma and Juventus, which are all hard battles.

The Italian Cup championship is also what Gao Shen wants. He said that he missed this honor last season and he hopes to get it this season, but it will not be easy because the teams that have reached the semi-finals are very strong.

powerful.

If Naples wins, Gao Shen will always hold a more patient press conference and have more information. Many times, he will even list a lot of key data for reporters.

Since Gao Shen began to pay attention to data analysis, many media and teams have also begun to pay attention to it, especially the media.

They began to find that readers could feel the game more intuitively in front of the data.

For example, this game.

After being asked by the media, Gao Shen listed a very surprising piece of data.

Naples, who played at home, ran an astonishing 120 kilometers in total, but how many kilometers did Inter Milan, who played away, run?

Gao Shen did not give specific data, but said it was only about 100 kilometers.

In other words, Naples ran a full 20 kilometers more than Inter Milan.

What an incredible number.

The media reporters at the scene were in an uproar and felt that the gap was indeed too big.

Isn’t this equivalent to thirteen versus eleven on the court?

As for the so-called number of shots, shots on goal, fouls and other data, media reporters all have them, but Gao Shen emphasized the other two numbers.

"Our possession rate is 65.3 percent, we pass the ball nearly three times more than our opponents, and our passing success rate is 90 percent, compared to 70 percent for our opponents.

many."

Gao Shen said that the combination of these three data can very clearly reflect the huge advantages of Naples players on the court, which in turn proves that Naples' off-the-ball movement is very valuable and also very threatening.

"Our tactics are very successful!" Gao Shen said this with a very proud, even proud expression.

This made all the media reporters who came to the scene clearly feel that this was not just a three-point game, but also a test for Gao Shen's players, his coaching staff, and even his own tactical concepts.

But now, whether it is him, the players, or the coaching staff, the answers given are full marks!

Through this report card, it is easy to find confidence in Gao Shen and Naples.

Confidence comes from strength, but strength comes from performance.

Before his strength is shown, even a person with strength doesn't know whether he is good or not.

Because on the football field, things like strength are never a simple comparison.

It's not like money, which can be measured directly with numbers.

When Gao Shen finished answering the last question and was reminded by the Naples public relations department staff to end the press conference, some media reporters stood up and applauded Gao Shen.

At first, there was only one person.

But gradually, the second, third, fourth...

More and more media reporters stood up and applauded Gao Shen.

There are even journalists from Italian media starting to appear inside, and there are more and more of them.

Finally, everyone in the audience stood up.

Such a scene, let alone a profound one, made the press spokesman a little stunned and didn't know what reaction he should give.

Gao Shen smiled and waved to them, clasped his hands in front of his chest, bowed slightly to express his thanks, then turned and left the press conference, but the applause inside continued for a while before stopping.

This is not the first time Gao Shen has received applause from media reporters, but this should be the applause that makes him most proud and proud.

In the past, many people would question his success at Real Madrid because he coached Real Madrid.

But things are different now.

He coaches Napoli.

Moreover, he took over the team when they were promoted from the second level, and gradually pulled the team up to the present, beating Inter Milan 5-0 in Serie A.

This is what Gao Shen is most proud of!
