Starting with Real Madrid

As soon as the season was over, Fort Volturno was empty.

In the morning, the team was officially disbanded, everyone left, only Gao Shen and the coaching staff remained in the team.

The players can take time off, but they still have a lot to do, such as preparing for the new season.

Fort Volturno needs to be remodeled to add some training equipment, the gym also needs to be further upgraded, and Lucas' data analysis team is currently in full swing and will be expanded to three people next.

There needs to be a separate office and some brand new equipment.

As the chief assistant coach, Carlo also needs to give feedback to the management based on the situation of the past season, and see what is not doing well enough, and all need to be transformed and improved during the suspension period.

All of these have to be completed within the more than two months of the suspension, and the time is very tight.

Instead, Gao Shen became the most relaxed person.

He only needs to be responsible for the overall situation and signing, and that's it

++

It was the first time he had strolled so leisurely through the Fort Volturno training center.

Since coaching Naples, he has hardly been free for a moment, and he is busy every day, constantly busy.

It was only now that he had the opportunity to stop and take a good look around the training center, to the small mound next to the training ground, which is the favorite place for fans to stand when watching the club's training.

He just walked up to the small mound and stood high, as if he could still see the players running on the training ground. Another season is over!

Reflecting deeply on the past season, the harvest is really rich.

It's the first full season of his coaching career, and it's full of ups and downs.

Since the Coppa Italia at the beginning of the season, he has encountered various opponents, Ascoli, Parma, Juventus, Roma, Inter Milan…

From the very beginning, Gao Shen did not take the Serie B team too seriously, and the facts have proved that it is difficult for the Serie B team to pose a threat to the Gao Shen team.

If it hadn't been too much fun after winning the championship in advance, if it hadn't been distracted by the Coppa Italia, Gao Shen would even have the confidence to remain unbeaten throughout the season, which shows Napoli's strength in Serie B.

Even Juventus, it is difficult to shake Naples coached by Gao Shen.

At least, this confidence is still profound.

But he also suffered the worst loss of his career.

Lost to Inter Milan 0-3!

From a purely performance point of view, Gao Shen's first full season was brilliant. As a newly-promoted horse, he won the Serie B championship and reached the Coppa Italia semi-finals. Such a report card can be said to be quite brilliant.

More importantly, Cavani is the top scorer in Serie B, with three more goals than Juventus' Trezeguet. Players such as Gervinho, Pellet, Hamsik and Sanchez have all scored less few.

Napoli are the most attacking and defensive team in Serie B, playing the best attacking football.

Such a transcript is amazing enough!

If not lose to Inter Milan.

Gao Shen always remembers!

"Last year, I visited Bielsa on the outskirts of Rosario, Argentina."

Guardiola's voice came from behind, and he was slowly walking up the small mound, heading towards Gao Shen.

A friend of mine, as well as Batistuta, strongly recommended me to meet him. "

Gao Shen nodded, "When I went to Argentina last time, I also visited him, but he was not at home."

"I was lucky that he was there that time." Guardiola smiled.

High and silent, this is indeed a kind of luck.

Or rather, fate.

"In his home, we analysed all kinds of football tactics in the living room, using the man as a centre-forward, the chair as a defender, the bench as a midfielder, and all kinds of other furniture in the living room, all of which were taken by us. Come and use it, we will learn tactics."

From Guardiola's words, Gao Shen heard some memories.

As you can imagine, it will be a very special memory.

"We talked for more than ten hours, and then when I was leaving, Bielsa asked me a question."

Gao Shen looked at Guardiola, but did not speak, waiting for Guardiola to continue talking.

"He said, as a professional player, you know everything about professional football, you know all kinds of dirty deals in this circle, how dishonest people in this circle are, people in this circle with football What a **** thing to do in the name, then why are you so eager to coach a team?"

Guardiola paused, looked at Gao Shen, and smiled slightly: "I replied to him, I like this kind of blood!"

"Professional football has too much, too much dirt and filth. It has now become a fame and fortune machine, but it is still full of boiling blood, which makes me yearn for it."

Gao Shen can't help nodding, this is the truth.

What fans see is always just the bright and bright on the surface, but behind this layer of bright and bright,

There are countless filth and filth, all kinds of power struggles and intrigues.

But all of this can't hide the kind of blood on the court.

That's why professional football is so crazy, so fascinating.

"In the past few months with you, I really learned a lot. I think you are completely different from other head coaches. You dare to think, speak, and do. Sometimes I even think, Why are you so sure you're right?"

When Guardiola said this, he shook his head and smiled: "But every time you are right."

Gao Shen also smiled, but he couldn't say that he had seen all this happen with his own eyes, so he was sure.

"Beat Juventus, slaughter Roma, Parma, Serie B, and others..."

Guardiola is also trying to search for the memories of the past few months. Gao Shen is completely different from his character, but in Gao Shen, he sees many qualities that attract him.

"I saw blood from you, from Naples, and from the players of Naples!"

Gao Shen understands that this is the football that Guardiola is most obsessed with and likes the most.

He can also understand why Guardiola in the current life would leave angrily when he saw the empty and boring football in the late stage of the dream team, who controlled the ball for the sake of possession.

Gao Shen actually likes this kind of football very much, but he is a little different from Guardiola, he is not literate.

At least, he definitely can't do the kind of thing that suddenly changes the way the team plays on the eve of the Champions League final.

Unless, he is sure enough to win by surprise.

Guardiola received an invitation.

An invitation that made him hesitate.

From Barcelona, ​​I hope he will go back to coach the second team of Barcelona.

A team struggling in the fourth tier.

This is also a feature of the Spanish league. The second team can participate in the professional league, so Real Madrid's second team Castilla can compete in the La Liga, and can also be relegated, except that it cannot be at the same level as the first team.

After Barcelona cultivated a group of players such as Xavi and Puyol, the second team's performance was terrible.

If Gao Shen remembered correctly, in his previous life, Guardiola should have offered to coach after seeing the crisis in the second team of Barcelona, ​​but now Barcelona is asking him if he is willing to go back.

"Decided?" Gao Shen asked with a smile.

Guardiola nodded, "You know, in fact, I had promised you to play with you in Serie A in the new season, but I couldn't refuse the invitation from Barcelona, ​​they needed me to go back."

Highly understand.

"I'm really looking forward to it, and I really want to be able to play alongside you, to watch you lead Napoli to Serie A, turn them upside down, and report that 0-3 at San Siro. hatred."

"I'm also very much looking forward to seeing you and Napoli at the top of the Serie A title, but..."

Guardiola's eyes showed reluctance and regret.

"I have to go back!"

It sounds like a wandering wanderer who wants to go home after wandering outside for many years.

Such a reason, such a situation, how to refuse? How to keep it?

"You have to think clearly, you go back to Barcelona, ​​I believe that with your ability, the second team of Barcelona can't keep you,

You must have the opportunity to be on your own, when that time comes, we will be rivals. "Gao Shen said threateningly.

"And then you'll do everything you can, like you did with Spalletti or any other manager, against me?" Guardiola couldn't help laughing.

"Of course!" Gao Shen nodded confidently, "I will also tell the world that you have been my assistant, and I know you too well, so I have no problem beating you at all, and there are other …”

Guardiola laughed, greatly diluting the sentimentality of separation.

"I will also tell everyone that I have been an assistant to Gao Shen, I have learned a lot from Gao Shen, I don't know you very well, but I will do my best to beat you, this is how I treat you Respect!"

Guardiola said with a serious look on his face.

"Me too! We really met. Neither of us should keep our hands. If we win the game, we will treat the other party to a good meal." Gao Shen also laughed and reached out his hand.

"It's a deal!" Guardiola firmly held Gao Shen's hand, "I'm confident, it must be my treat."

"Fuck you! With your three-legged cat kung fu, can you still beat me?" Gao Shen pulled hard and gave Guardiola a heavy hug, as did Guardiola.

Although they have been together for just a few months, the two study and discuss football every day, and they have formed a very deep friendship with each other.

Things in the world are so strange.

Some people have been with each other for most of their lives, but they are still like passers-by; but some people have been together for a short time, but they are close to each other.

Gao Shen is fortunate that he and Guardiola are the latter.

"Go to Barcelona, ​​come on, I'm optimistic about you!" Gao Shen encouraged.

"You too, win the Serie A championship in the new season, I will cheer for you in Barcelona!" Guardiola said with a fist.

Gao Shen patted him on the shoulder, indicating that he had received it.

People come and go, which is actually quite normal, and he has long since looked down on it.

It's just that he doesn't know that his appearance is good for Guardiola? or bad?
