My name is Colani

Chapter 280 8. Bad idea

The arrival of Klose has increased the strength of the forward line. Some are happy and some are worried, but Hugo spoke early in the training, "I don't select players based on your transfer fees, I look at your performance in training. Attitude is everything, without professional attitude there is nothing!”

Everyone knows this is a lie, but it still calms everyone's minds.

After buying Klose, Hugo felt the brakes, overturning the idea of ​​introducing some experienced players before the season. There are two veterans in the team, Miku and Guardiola.

During the training, Hugo felt that the young people on the team were working hard and had new ideas in mind. Why not give them more opportunities? ! It’s impossible to spend a lot of money to bring in players and then let them serve as substitutes, right? ! These young people still need space!

After making up his mind, Hugo told Selly his idea. Selly still expressed concern. Hugo said: "I feel sorry for these young people. If they are not given a chance, they will probably be ruined! I am a People who care about football, you all think that I am messing around, but I want to say that I am not, I hope to cultivate more talents! I used to tell Mazzarri and Zeman to give more opportunities to young people, but now How can I always increase the strength of the team by buying people?"

"No matter what, the worst I can do is start over from scratch next season. I make the decision and I don't regret it!"

"Keep the players we have, our transfer door is closed!"

Hugo made up his mind.

During the summer training camp, Trapani maintained two training sessions a day, one training session in the morning and one training session in the afternoon.

In the morning, physical training was the main focus, and in the afternoon, tactics classes were sometimes arranged. Hugo had stated earlier that once his tactics were determined, no one could but implement them and could not object.

Hugo is no longer a hands-off boss like he was the last time he was a head coach. This time he is very serious and takes the trouble to preach his tactical concepts in the tactics class. His core ideas have inherited some of Zeman's ideas but also made many changes.

Zeman has always tried to enable his team to control the rhythm well, but many teams he led did not have that kind of rhythm control master. After Miku arrived, he has been trying to cultivate Miku to become such a player, but Miku adapted It took a long time to find the feeling, and Guardiola is here again.

Hugo continues this idea. Miku and Guardiola have found some resonance at the end of last season. Hugo needs them to continue this attitude.

The two of them are responsible for the midfield operation of the team, keeping the team's rhythm under overall control.

The defensive midfielder position needs to have a good sense of cooperation when the team is in possession of the ball, be able to form a tacit understanding with Miku and Guardiola, and assume the role of protecting the series. When attacking, there is no need to go too far forward, especially Rapani's offense will not completely rely on the center. On the contrary, the wing is the top priority. When defending, Hugo advocates active interception by the midfielder instead of simply relying on defensive movement. This is different from Italy's defense. There is a big difference, which can be said to be contrary to each other.

The two central defenders must also press forward and maintain a good distance from the midfielder to form protection. Their responsibility is also to defend proactively rather than passively.

Full-backs are one of the most important links in Hugo's tactical thinking. They must be able to move up and down, and can quickly put pressure on opponents. When the wingers wander into the penalty area, they are responsible for passing the ball from the wing and retreating in defense. He has to retreat to the position to prevent the opponent's wing attack.

The task of winger Franck Ribery on the front line is to break through, deliberately disrupt the opponent's defense, and then wait for an opportunity to send the ball to the penalty area, or after pulling the opponent's defense line, let Miku handle it.

Klose, the winger, is more important to rely on his excellent running position to be an active center and an opportunistic scorer. If possible, he can also pass the ball from the side.

The general idea is this. Hugo hopes that the team can show control and change of fast and slow rhythm to give the opponent a fatal blow.

He and everyone else on the coaching staff had little experience and focused more on offense. However, regarding defense, they were not sure how many points they could score in actual combat after training. Hugo asked Victor this question.

Victor smiled and said: "What are you afraid of? As the game progresses, everyone's experience will naturally be enriched. The key is that no matter how much the team's morale is lost, everyone's morale cannot fall, otherwise it will be hard to recover!"

Victor himself is still very optimistic. He can foresee that maybe Trapani will become popular at the beginning, because it sounds like Hugo's offense is versatile and insightful, but he may also encounter difficulties. The main problem is concentrated on In terms of defense, Trapani adopts a proactive defensive posture, which requires high quality defensive players. Victor is not sure whether the team can adapt to the impact of Serie A forwards.

During this period, Hugo used his hard work to win the favor of the players. Although everyone still had a lot of distrust, his diligent attitude made everyone willing to give it a try. At least Hugo's tactical preparations were sufficient. Everyone's explanations are also very organized.

Last season, four teams were promoted from Serie B to Serie A, Trapani, Sampdoria, Siena, and Lecce. It stands to reason that there should be four teams that were relegated, but something unexpected happened. , Catania successfully appealed to the Court of Arbitration for Sport in mid-July. The court actually ruled that Catania won the appeal and they should get three points.

The current situation is that the verdicts of the court and the Football Association are completely opposite results. Siena does not care about these three points. Anyway, they can still be promoted without these three points. However, Catania urgently needs these three points. In the last round of the league season, they failed to achieve the ideal results and fell to 16th place in the league. This is going to be relegated. With these three points, they can successfully go ashore.

But as a result, several other relegated teams were not happy. The bosses behind the teams in Italian football were very unruly. The Football Association and the professional leagues allowed the giants to control them and get by without competing for the championship anyway. But if they were involved, When it comes to one's own actual interests, it's different. The reason why Hugo succeeded last time is because everyone's interests are consistent. Of course, small teams will jump out. This time is the same. Not only Venice jumps, but also Genoa behind him. , Cosencha, and Salernitana also dance together.

They have brought problems to the Football Association one after another, causing the Football Association to be overwhelmed. This matter is not easy to handle. The Football Association's handling is internal, and it has gone back on its words. However, according to the arbitration court, the prestige of the Football Association will be greatly damaged. This It's embarrassing anyway, but the problem still needs to be solved.

Hugo waited until the media announced that Catania had won the case before he remembered this matter. He was thinking about how to do this in Trapani's favor!

After thinking about it, this matter has nothing to do with Trapani!

One day Hugo and Allegri were discussing the team's schedule. The Professional League had not announced the Serie A schedule for the new season. Allegri asked Hugo if he could do something to let the Professional League release Trapani's early schedule. The main purpose of making the arrangement easier is to avoid strong teams and arrange a few weaker teams first, easier first and then harder.

In fact, every newly promoted team thinks so. Don't encounter tough battles one after another at the beginning. It will be very fatal, and Trapani may not be able to hold its head high.

"I'm going to find Galliani. He should take care of this little thing for me!" Hugo said confidently.

"Unfortunately, there are only 34 rounds in Serie A. If there are 20 teams, there will be 38 rounds. Our error tolerance rate will be much higher, and it is easier for us to correct mistakes! Now there are only 34 rounds, and we must brace ourselves to deal with it. , if you make a little mistake, you may fail!" Allegri said with longing.

Hugo's eyes lit up, why didn't I pay attention to this problem!

Allegri reminded Hugo that it would be good for Trapani to have more teams, or it would be very good for the underdogs. First of all, Allegri said that even if the schedule is long, It's only four rounds, which also gives the underdogs buffer time, lest the underdogs just adapt to the rhythm of Serie A and the team is definitely relegated!

Secondly, more schedules will have a great impact on the upstream teams. With four more rounds, each season is so long. The schedule is very dense for strong teams and is not conducive to their recovery. It is difficult to ensure a sustained state this season. Good thing for an underdog.

What is Trapani, a real underdog.

Hugo quickly contacted Catania. Since the Football Association and the court disagreed, let's expand the army. Ancona in fifth place and Triestina in sixth place were promoted to Serie A. Serie A It has become 20 teams. Serie B will not be relegated this year but will be promoted. In addition to the 4 teams that were relegated from Serie A, the 4 teams that were promoted from Serie C will also become 20 teams!

Hehe, everyone is happy!

Trapani will be able to benefit from the schedule!

Once this idea came up, Hugo would of course put it forward. At the end of July, when Hugo was interviewed by "Corriere dello Sport" and mentioned the recent uproar in Catania, Hugo told the reporter with a smile. : "I don't think there is anything difficult to solve in this matter! The Football Association is not handling this matter properly. Although Gauci is not a good person, he is justified in this matter! I don't think it is better to expand both Serie A and Serie B. ! Both Serie A and Serie B can become 20 teams, and the relegated teams in Serie B will not be relegated this season. Wouldn’t this solve all the problems!”

The reporter absolutely admired Hugo. He could come up with such an idea. The reporter's mind was still a bit simple, but Ferraiolo, the deputy editor of Corriere dello Sport, was not that stupid. He quickly realized the viciousness of Hugo's idea. .
