Starting with Real Madrid

After a day off, the team regrouped.

Most of the international players reported to the national team, and Carrington suddenly became deserted.

Even on the training ground, there are more staff than players trained.

This has to be said, and it is also a very strange thing.

Although the number of people is small, how to train and how to train, all the projects are still arranged very fully.

The two-week national team game days are not only a test for the international players, but also a test for the non-international players who stay in the team. They need to maintain a good competitive state during the two weeks without games.

After training, Gao Shen called Jordan Henderson to his office.

The 19-year-old England midfielder is 1.87 meters tall. He looks a little thin and does not look strong, but as a typical English midfielder, he is very durable, has strong running ability, and is both offensive and defensive.

But what Gao Shen values ​​most is his passing ability.

"How's the situation on the fractured foot recently?"

As soon as he sat down, Gao Shen asked with concern.

Jordan Henderson's foot fracture occurred in early April of this year. At that time, he was loaned to Coventry in the British Championship for the purpose of accumulating more experience, but he was seriously injured and fractured in the middle of the game, which ended the loan early. But also the entire season was scrapped.

Strictly speaking, when he joined Manchester City, he had just recovered from a broken bone.

Gao Shen didn't know it before, but when Henderson joined Manchester City, he took the initiative to confess to Buenaventura and the team doctor during the medical examination, and only then did he know that he had a fracture.

Later, the coaching staff also specially dealt with and strengthened training for his injuries.

"It's not a big problem. I checked it last time and it has healed." Henderson replied gratefully.

Gao Shen would chat with him every once in a while, and every time he chatted, he would immediately care about his injuries.

Moreover, this kind of deep concern is not perfunctory, but genuine concern.

Of course, it may also involve his personal interests as a head coach, but it's rare enough.

Gao smiled lightly. After knowing Henderson's fracture, he knew why Sunderland would take him as a bonus so readily.

This deal seems to be a big loss for Manchester City, but Gao Shen believes that Henderson will not let him down.

"Your passing in the team has always been stable, and the success rate is basically above 80%. Whether it is a game or training, it is very good, and your defensive contribution is also very good. To be honest, I am really satisfied. ."

Henderson was also happy when he heard it.

If the head coach is satisfied with him, then he can get more opportunities.

What's more, his current head coach is not an ordinary person, but a gold medal coach.

In the past, isn't Gao Shen's best at digging out young players?

There is a saying in European football, but those who are highly valued will not be inferior in strength.

"Some time ago, I asked Fernando to collect some game videos and highlights of Rijkaard, Busquets and Thiago Mota, have you watched it?" Gao asked with concern.

It's no secret that he wants to make Henderson a four, and he's talked to the players about it.

Since it is to be adjusted, it must also let the players have a direction and work hard to learn, so he specially asked Lucas to collect some game videos and highlights of the No. 4 players, and let Henderson watch and learn.

"I've read it all, boss, and I have some experience, but to be honest, there are many things I can't do, or I can't do well." Henderson said, not without a loss, and his expression was a little uneasy.

But Gao Shen was not disappointed at all, instead he smiled faintly.

"This is normal, Jordan, there are no two identical leaves in the world, and naturally there are no identical two players. I asked you to watch the video of Rijkaard and others. I hope you can think more about them on the court. The way you think and the way you control the rhythm, instead of expecting you to play like them, because that's impossible."

Gao Shen looked at Henderson and explained earnestly.

"I want you to understand, Jordan, that you can always be who you are, not someone else, so what you have to do is learn from someone else's strengths and turn that into part of your ability."

Whenever it comes to transfer or succession, there will always be a lot of media and fans who simply think it is used to replace someone.

For example, at Manchester United, many people say that Sneijder is here to replace Scholes, but the question is, do the two have the same characteristics?

Manchester United's biggest problem now is Scholes?

There has never been a saying on the football field that one is the same as the other, and there is no saying that one is used to replace another. There are only differences in responsibilities and division of labor on the field, as well as teamwork.

This is a dynamic collaboration and adjustment.

Just like Manchester United, his biggest problem now is that after Cristiano Ronaldo and Tevez leave, who will fill the gap of 60 or 70 goals?

The answer is obvious, no one can make up for it!

Goal monsters like Cristiano Ronaldo and Messi, looking at the current world football world, and even the world football world in the next few years, are just the two of them. It is difficult for anyone to come close to them, let alone surpass them.

How difficult is it to score goals consistently throughout the season?

Gao Shen wants to tune Henderson into a 4 position, and never wants him to become the second Thiago Mota, or the second Xavi Martinez. This is unrealistic, and their characteristics are completely different.

The fourth position has never been the only type.

Yaya Toure can be a four, so can Busquets, and the same goes for Henderson.

The key is whether he can serve the team well and play a role.

Gao Shen told Henderson a lot about the No. 4 position, as well as his expectations and expectations for him.

As a young player, Henderson still has no accurate positioning on the court, but his height is there and his passing ability is also very strong. Gao Shen believes that he can become a qualified No. 4, and I hope he can strengthen more. Improve your own thinking mode in this regard.

"Next, whether it is some two-line battles this season, or the Christmas winter break schedule, or next season's Champions League, I believe that the team needs to use you more and more places, I hope to When you can give your best performance.”

After all, he was a young man. Henderson was on fire when Gao Shen said that. He nodded hurriedly and said that he must go all out, study hard and transform, so as to live up to Gao Shen's high expectations for him.

…

After sending Henderson away, Gao Shen welcomed Adam Lallana.

It is also interesting to say that this midfielder from Southampton is one of the very few players in the Manchester City team who has not played so far, especially among the players who have been introduced and promoted.

Trippier has at least come off the bench for a little while, but Adam Lallana hasn't played a minute.

It's not that Gao Shen has an opinion on him, but it's really difficult to handle.

The number of places on the big list is limited there, and it is very difficult for Gao Shen to select candidates every time.

But this time, Gao Shen told Adam Lallana very clearly that he was considering placing Lallana in the squad for the match against Arsenal, but only if he would show up in the training during this time. best performance.

In Gao Shen's previous life, Lallana was hailed as England's most skilled player, but now that title belongs to Joe Cole.

But Lallana's strength can be seen from this title.

Passing, dribbling and post attack are all Lallana's forte.

Right now, his body is still relatively thin, and he does not have the defensive and running abilities that he had acquired before he passed through his previous life.

It was created by managers like Pochettino.

The current Adam Lallana is just a young literary and artistic youth with outstanding skills and awareness.

Gao Shen has clearly told Lallana before that his positioning is to be in the midfield, not the front side.

Both Robinho and Hazard do not rely on speed to eat, but this does not mean that their speed is slow. On the contrary, they are actually quite fast, but they are superior to Robben, Gareth Bell, etc. For players, it is relatively slow.

But Adam Lallana is different. Although he is only 1.7 meters tall, his speed is really mediocre, even slow.

And if you want to play in midfield at Manchester City, that running ability and defensive ability are essential.

Although Adam Lallana is a technical player, he still trains very hard, and the effect is OK. Gao Shen hopes that he can continue to persevere, "I believe that in midfield, you will definitely be able to make a breakthrough in the England team. world."

Today's England is still the era of double Germany, but everyone knows that the combination of Lampard and Gerrard represents a sad reminder. The com represents a lack of creativity and imagination, which is also a problem for the England midfielder.

And Lallana can provide England with creativity and imagination.

"To tell you the truth, Adam, I am very, very optimistic about you and I believe that you have the opportunity to become the best and most creative midfielder in England, but only if you work harder and work harder. "

Gao Shen promised that as long as he trains well enough during the two-week national team game days, he will be arranged to play for at least ten minutes or more in the game against Arsenal.

Lallana felt the importance attached to him by Gao Shen, because Arsenal are a major rival of Manchester City on the road to winning the title.

Being able to appear in such a strong dialogue is already convincing enough in itself.

But only Gao Shen knew in his heart that he was really forced to do nothing.

The South American international traveled long distances and flew such a long distance to participate in the competition. After running back and forth, he immediately ushered in the game against Arsenal. It is inevitable that his state will be affected.

At that time, Gao Shen will also need to consider the physical state and mental state of the players after returning to the team, in order to decide who can play and who can't.

But in any case, a large rotation is certain.

So, Adam Lallana will get a chance to play.

But the twists and turns in this are only clear to Gao Shen. After the players received Gao Shen's promise, they happily thanked them, full of gratitude, and repeatedly promised that they would do their best.

Seeing Adam Lallana leaving happily, Gao Shen also showed a smile.

Maybe, to play Arsenal, I really have to rely on him!

And Robben, after this kid came back from vacation, I don't know how he is doing?
