From coaching Real Madrid

The captain of each team will have some agreed-upon rules.

For example, in Real Madrid, the captain is always the player who has been with the team the longest. Even if they join at the same time, the order can be decided within a few days. This is a rule that no one can easily change.

There are also some teams like Barcelona, ​​which are voted on in the locker room.

When Puyol was captain, it was a unanimous vote in the locker room.

Of course, there are also some teams that are directly appointed by the head coach. This requires taking into account the player's influence, role and qualifications in the team, especially influence. If there is not enough prestige, it will not be possible to suppress the players.

, then how to manage it?

Gao Shen announced the appointment of the four captains on the spot before the training session the next morning.

Kompany, Rakitic, Suarez and Zabaleta also gave their inaugural speeches respectively, basically promising how to help their teammates and help the team better compete and train.

After the captain is clarified, the responsibilities are also clarified, and the team management has a backbone, which is naturally more stable.

For example, the warm-up before the game is led by the captains.

After the training session, Gao Shen called players such as Robinho, Hazard, Robben, David Silva, Mika Richards, Neuer and Felipe one by one, and talked to them one by one.

He explained the reasons why he made such an appointment.

Under normal circumstances, there is no need for Gao Shen to explain, but he went out of his way to explain it to the players in private, which was tantamount to expressing his importance to the players. This also made the players feel Gao Shen's heart and immediately expressed their support.

Even for Robinho, who was captain last season but failed to get a position this time, it is impossible to say that he is not disappointed, but Gao Shen's explanation is reasonable and he hopes Robinho can take more advantage of the situation.

Focus on competition and training.

As for Robben and David Silva, in fact, neither of them is interested.

Micah Richards is a soft-spoken person, so naturally she does not dare to resist her profound will.

In this way, the whole thing was completed smoothly.

Kompany and others also quickly started to help Gao Shen and the coaching staff share the management work of the locker room.

…

In the first half of last season, under the leadership of Paul Ince, Blackburn was deep in the relegation zone. After changing coaches midway, and inviting the famous coach Allardyce, Blackburn was finally on the right track.

Thrilling relegation.

This summer, Blackburn's main center Santa Cruz did not transfer to Manchester City like Gao Shen did in his previous life. This allowed Blackburn's striker strength to remain at a high level. At the same time, they also introduced veteran Sarr from Real Madrid.

Gadot, as well as powerful stars such as Nzonzi and Chimbonda, have significantly improved Blackburn's strength.

As a famous Premier League coach, Allardyce also attaches great importance to the first round of the new season.

The day before the game, when the 18-man squad for the next day was announced, Allardyce said at a press conference that the results of the warm-up match were not enough to prove Manchester City's strength.

"According to my understanding of Gao Shen, he has never paid attention to warm-up matches in the past, so his warm-up match results have been very poor. Therefore, I will not look at Manchester City based on the warm-up match results."

Allardyce said that he had also studied Real Madrid and Naples with Gao Shen, and he believed that Gao Shen's arrival would inject different elements into Manchester City and revitalize the team.

"As early as last season's column, I mentioned that I think Mark Hughes's team formation ideas are very outdated. He is trying to build a localized Chelsea team in England. This is a very bad concept.

It can no longer even keep up with the rhythm and pace of the Premier League."

"Now, the trend of the Premier League is towards mainlandization."

Allardyce said that looking at the current overall trend of the Premier League, the top teams are basically undergoing mainland reforms, and the introduction of famous foreign coaches has become a general trend.

From Wenger to Benitez, and now Ancelotti and Gao Shen, foreign famous coaches have injected more vitality and fresh blood into the Premier League. This has made local famous coaches, except Ferguson, Moyes, Redeker

Except for Knapp and others, it is basically difficult for anyone to keep up.

But under such circumstances, Mark Hughes actually wants to copy a local Chelsea team, which is simply ridiculous.

Allardyce was dismissed from Newcastle and while he was at home, he wrote a column attacking Mark Hughes.

Now, he believes that the advanced team formation model has a completely different idea from Mark Hughes, which can be clearly seen from the signings.

"Mark Hughes has no use for players like David Silva."

The purpose of Allardyce's words is very clear, which is to call on Blackburn, and even the Premier League, to use a new way of thinking to see Manchester City in the new season. If you still use the old eyes, you will definitely lose miserably.

.

As for the first game of the new season, Allardyce said that his goal is to maintain a draw.

On the one hand, it is because it is always difficult to play in the first round of the new season, and on the other hand, it is because Manchester City, who are sophisticated, have superior strength.

…

Allardyce spoke highly of Gao Shen and Manchester City, but the British media generally did not think so.

Former Liverpool star Alan Hansen was previewing the first round of the Premier League in the new season. He was full of pessimism about Manchester City's away trip, believing that it would encounter a Waterloo because of the inability to adapt.

Alan Hansen said that Manchester City's advantages lie in speed and technology, and the organization and creativity of the midfield are also better. However, the midfield is relatively weak in defense and power confrontation, and advanced troops have always tended to attack, which is very dangerous in the Premier League.

of.

“When Arsenal head coach Arsene Wenger first arrived in the Premier League, he once said that he was not adaptable because the pace of the Premier League is very fast. When the ball arrives, defensive players follow closely behind, and close combat and physical confrontation are indispensable.

Less, and it won’t give you any time to react, which will be a serious problem for Manchester City’s technical players.”

Alan Hansen revealed that Wenger's best results in the Premier League were precisely achieved when he had steel walls like Vieira and Gilberto Silva. Since then, Arsenal's results have plummeted and they have been reduced to

To protect the four crazy demons.

"Facts have proved that in the Premier League, Gao Shen's method simply cannot work. He needs to change his thinking to be successful, but such a change cannot be seen in the current Gao Shen and Manchester City."

Not only Alan Hansen, in fact, almost the entire British media is badmouthing Gao Shen and his Manchester City.

On the one hand, it's because the results in the warm-up match were not ideal and the team has just been founded. On the other hand, there is a market for badmouthing Gao Shen and Manchester City.

The football atmosphere in the UK seems open, but it is limited to the capital sector. In fact, British fans are very conservative.

For a wealthy team like Manchester City, not to mention fans of other teams, even many Manchester City fans are very dissatisfied and believe that Manchester City's tradition has been lost after being acquired.

As for Gao Shen, the 28-year-old foreign head coach, they were equally repulsed.

Instead, he was indignant about the club's dismissal of Mark Hughes and defended the former coach.

Of course, these conservative fans are not mainstream, but this does not prevent them from making more voices and attracting the attention of the media and neutral fans.

In addition, after being coached by Gao Shen, they really played poorly in the warm-up match, which gave them even more reason.

After spending more than 200 million euros to reorganize the team, the result is like this, even worse than Mark Hughes!

Under such circumstances, it is not surprising that Gao Shen was collectively criticized by the media.

…

Regarding his situation in British football, Gao Shen smiled and expressed that he understood very well at the pre-match press conference.

"As I said before, I have always been controversial. From coaching Real Madrid to Naples and now Manchester City, I am actually used to being questioned by the media and fans."

"I'm not used to arguing with others in the media. I like to use competitions to prove myself!"

Gao Shen's words made the media reporters in the audience a little confused.

Are you sure you're not good at bickering?

But they were very disappointed because there was nothing they could do since Gao Shen didn't accept the move.

Just before Gao Shen's press conference, Ferguson also mentioned Manchester City again in the pre-match press conference and once again dubbed Manchester City "noisy neighbor". He believed that Manchester United was unlucky to encounter this noisy neighbor.

Neighbor.

Ferguson's intention was to ridicule Manchester City for making a lot of noise in the transfer market and other news, but actually not doing anything.

Gao Shen understood this as a psychological tactic for the first round of the new season.

Although it is not a Manchester derby, Ferguson obviously does not want to see the rise of Manchester City.

Gao Shen's response greatly excited the media reporters at the scene.

"I respect Sir Alex Ferguson very much, and I can understand his restless mood at this moment. I can even feel the fear hidden deep in his heart, because from now on, Manchester United will no longer cover the sky with one hand in Manchester.

"

"I know that the Premier League is the most competitive league in the world, but I am still confident to succeed here, not only to win the championship, but also to lead Manchester City and kick Manchester United off their fucking throne!"

As soon as Gao Shen said these words, there was a burst of cheers and excitement on the scene.

This is what Ferguson said in a previous interview with the media. He believed that his greatest achievement in coaching Manchester United was nothing else but knocking Liverpool off the throne.

Nowadays, Gao Shen is just repaying the favor with others, using similar words to send to Ferguson and his Manchester United.

As for Alan Hansen, Gao Shen was equally rude.

"As I said before, he is no longer a football person, he is a media person, but I am very curious and I want to know. Mr. Alan Hansen swore that my team has problems and it is difficult to play away from home.

Beating Blackburn, who he said was the representative of traditional English football."

"So, I would like to ask him, if I win, is he willing to apologize to me, my players, and the Manchester City fans in public, and admit his ignorance?"

Gao Shen once again emphasized, "My players and I will definitely prove our strength in the away game. I also hope to hear Mr. Alan Hansen's apology in the post-match program."
