Star Coach

Soon, the competition entered November.

The country is bored. The youth team competition has been going smoothly without many disturbances. The team is at the top of the list, 8 points ahead of the second place.

Jiangshan also took the time to apply for a PRO license, and also has letters of recommendation from famous coaches such as Wukang University, Vicente del Bosque, Sacchi and Cooper. It has entered the final stage and it is hoped that the certificate will be issued early next year.

As long as he gets the certificate, he will be the youngest PRO coaching license holder.

Because of this, Jiangshan has time to serve as a close brother to the players and help Sacchi adjust the mentality of the first-team players. But the effect was average. After Jiangshan's psychological massage was over, Sacchi used a sap to suffocate the players to death.

There is a conflict between the top management and Sacchi, and there is internal strife within the team. Good results will definitely be amazing. Therefore, Monaco's performance shocked fans all over the world, it was ridiculously bad.

The team that ranked second in the league last season went on a recruiting spree in the summer, spending no less than 10 million euros, but it actually announced that it was not working well? Is this the reason why the league standings fell to the second half? Nearly halfway through the season, Monaco ranks only 15th. Only 5 points above the relegation zone, if you are not careful, you will fall into the abyss of relegation.

If it weren't for the first five rounds of the Champions League group stage, with two wins, two draws and one loss, the score is as high as 8 points, and the hope of qualifying from the group has become Sacchi's last fig leaf, otherwise Sacchi would be dismissed in October.

Of course, in early November, there is still the final round of Monaco's Champions League group stage. 8 points are not guaranteed and they may fall into the UEFA Cup.

In the final round, Monaco will challenge Inter Milan away from home, while Ajax only needs to face Rosenborg at home. If Monaco loses and Ajax wins, Monaco can only go to the UEFA Cup to show off.

The top brass kept up the pressure and the fans began to boo. Saki has been very irritable recently and half of his eyebrows have fallen off.

The team has a bunch of strong players, but they have been unable to unite as a team. They are fighting on their own, and there are constant internal strife. The league has serious problems and they have given up by default.

During this period, many media outlets reported on the internal strife in Monaco, and the conflicts between Sacchi and the players and senior management, which became a hot topic among fans. And the country is actually described as the link that barely maintains Monaco.

He's just a close brother, do the players want to be so awesome? When the time comes when I coach, will you support me? Jiang Shan counted the time, and the position of Monaco coach seemed to be waving to him.

Prince Albert saw the media reports and consciously seized the opportunity. He was good at dancing and kept moving around to add fuel to the fire. He also worked hard to get rid of the bald Saki.

Soon, club president Jean Campora could not bear the pressure of the team's performance and nodded in agreement to fire Sacchi. But he also did not want Prince Albert to be the only one beautiful, and advocated inviting Deschamps, who is coaching in England, to support him for the rest of the season and then sign a long-term contract.

"Deschamps was once a well-known French football player, and he has coaching experience in the top leagues. The players are very convinced, and he is definitely more suitable than Jiangshan." Campora said plausibly, "Jiangshan is just the head coach of the reserve team, and his good performance in coaching the youth team does not represent the adult team. Just carry it.”

Prince Albert was furious, "The youth team is undefeated so far, and Jiangshan has a good relationship with the players. No matter what, we must give him a chance to coach the remaining games of this season."

"No, I don't agree." Campora gritted his teeth. "The personnel rights of the team are in my hands, and I should decide on the head coach. I will give you the position of head coach of the youth team, that's enough!"

Finally, Albert made his big move, "When I invited Jiang Shan to coach, I told him that whenever there is a vacancy for the head coach of the first team, he will take over as a substitute. It's all written clearly in the contract."

"It's good if the contract is written. There are liquidated damages in the contract. Just terminate Jiangshan's contract and pay him liquidated damages." Campora sneered, "How much liquidated damages can a youth team coach have?"

It’s not that Monaco doesn’t have money, and it’s not that they haven’t terminated their contract with the coach. Sacchi was fired for only 5 million U.S. dollars in compensation, let alone a youth team coach.

"You want to give him money?" Prince Albert smiled and threw out the contract, "Okay, if you want to give it, you can give it. 10 million US dollars, how do you give it?"

"Oh my God..." Campora was possessed by a rooster and jumped up from the table. "You gave a youth team coach a liquidated damages of 10 million US dollars? Your family owns a bank?"

"It's ridiculous, it's nonsense." Campora almost collapsed. No matter how young or ignorant Albert was, he shouldn't be so confused. The head coach's liquidated damages were only 5 million US dollars, but the youth team coach actually tied up 10 million US dollars. His brain Smoked?

The two sides were in a stalemate. Prince Albert's father, Archduke Rainier, said, "The Monaco team is the signature of the Principality of Monaco and must not be messed up. But for this season to develop like this, you are all responsible."

"There is no hope for the league this season, but there is still a chance to advance to the second group stage of the Champions League. As long as the team is stable, there may be hope to go further." Archduke Rainier said slowly, "You can limit it with Jiangshan The first condition is to lead the team into the second group stage of the Champions League.”

The season is not even halfway through, and the team is already 18 points behind the top team in the standings, declaring that there is no hope of winning the championship. However, the hope of the Champions League top 16 is still there. As long as they win away games, they can advance.

Reigner is not concerned about who will be the head coach, but the contradiction within the top management needs to be resolved. On one side is his son and on the other is the team chairman. No one is worried. He can only think of a plan that both sides agree with.

Prince Albert wants to be in power, that's fine. Jiangshan has to make achievements and enter the second round of the Champions League group stage, that is, the round of 16. Albert can support him legitimately, and Campora will have nothing to say.

Campora wants to continue to be in power? That's fine. If Jiangshan can't make achievements, we can talk about how to fire him. The termination fee at that time will definitely be less than 10 million US dollars.

Reinier is actually not optimistic about Jiangshan. What can a young man achieve? But it hurts to let the team pay 10 million US dollars for a buyout inexplicably.

"Yes, let's do it." Campora said harshly, "It's just 10 million US dollars, it's not that we can't take it out. Let's see if he wants money or coaching! If it doesn't work, we will slowly sue him and see if he wants to be a coach or wants to make 10 million. Humph!"

Albert tried a few words, but failed to convince the two old foxes. If the team deliberately drags time on Jiangshan's contract, Jiangshan will not be able to fight a war of attrition with the team anyway?

Countless big-name coaches finally terminated their contracts, and they only received part of the termination fee. Time cost is an issue that famous coaches value very much.

There is already a glimmer of hope. Albert decided to make it clear to Jiangshan. It would be best if Jiangshan took on this challenge. Otherwise, he would follow the rules and see who is not afraid of consumption.

Roses are fragrant, but there are thorns under the flowers. Jiangshan learned the news in advance and frowned. To enter the second stage of the group stage, he must win Inter Milan; if he draws, it depends on the results of Ajax and Rosenborg. Rosenborg is unreliable!

In other words, Monaco must beat Inter Milan.

"Mr. Cooper, are we meeting again?" Jiangshan murmured.
