Super Marshal

On the day after the UEFA Awards Night, the European Super Cup officially kicked off in Monaco.

Champions League champions Inter Milan face UEFA Cup champions Sevilla.

This is also the first game in September 2007.

Prandelli's Inter Milan did not disappoint. Cristiano Ronaldo seemed to have vented all his depression on Sevilla last night and scored twice to help Inter Milan beat Sevilla 3-0. vilia.

Gao Han sat at the Louis II Stadium and watched the entire game. He believed that Sevilla's disastrous defeat was related to their right back Daniel Alves suddenly joining Barcelona on the last day of the summer transfer market, which led to Sevilla's defeat. Villa's entire tactical approach has changed.

The initiator of the whole thing was Guardiola sitting next to him.

"You'd better be careful, Juande Ramos will settle the score with you." Gao Han said with a smile, fearing that the world would not be in chaos.

Although Barcelona also paid a high price for Alves, before the season, they suddenly lost one of their most important players. Juande Ramos definitely had reason to fight with Guardiola.

But the newbie who had just taken over Barcelona's first team was not worried at all. He smiled slightly and said: "Okay, I told him that you recommended me to buy it, and Daniel Alves's agent is a good manager." Des.”

I'll wipe it, is that okay?

Gao Han seemed to have gotten to know Guardiola again. When did he become so talkative?

He actually started to know how to frame someone up.

"After you left me, you completely lost your temper, Pep." Gao Han looked like I was so disappointed and heartbroken.

Guardiola laughed, but in his heart he was very grateful to Gao Han.

Daniel Alves was Gao Han's first choice. As early as when Gao Han was coaching Inter Milan, he was hesitating between Alves and Maicon. I still remember that Gao Han had a very high opinion of Alves at that time. But he was worried that Alves would not be able to adapt to Serie A, so he ultimately chose Maicon.

This summer, Gao Han went to Bayern Munich. Since he already had Lahm, Gao Han would definitely not be able to spend a lot of money to bring in Alves, so Guardiola called him and took the lead to bring Alves. Camp Nou.

Instead of objecting to this, Gao Han agreed.

As a professional head coach, he certainly does not feel that he should recruit all the players he likes to his team. Even if Bayern Munich is willing to bring Alves to Sebena, the result will only be a delay for him. and Ram.

Rather than doing this, it would be better to simply make Guardiola cheaper.

"I have been debugging Messi and Alves to form a right-wing partnership recently, and the effect should be good."

Gao Han nodded. He liked both players. Messi also asked him to lead them for a while. Of course he knew Messi's level and the ability of this right wing.

"It's a pity that I have been talking to Paul and Hill for a long time, and they are not willing to sell Xabi Alonso to me. This is definitely a big pity." Guardiola said with a sigh.

Reusing Xavi and promoting Iniesta, Guardiola vigorously supported Barcelona's youth training after taking office, but he has never been able to find the player he wanted in the defensive midfielder position.

Originally, Xavi Alonso should have been the most suitable, but Atletico Madrid's main defensive midfielder was worth a lot and the Sheets were unwilling to release him, which directly led to the failure of Guardiola's poaching plan.

Later, he also considered poaching Inter Milan's Yaya Toure, but he failed to do so.

Therefore, Guardiola's plan now is to promote the youth training.

"What do you think of Busquets, whom I mentioned to you last time?" Guardiola asked with concern.

"That nineteen-year-old general?"

"Well, I was just promoted to the second team this season."

"It's not bad, it will be a stable ball release point."

Guardiola knows it well, and he still trusts Gao Han's vision.

"To be honest, you now have Ronaldinho, Eto'o and Messi in the frontcourt, and Xavi and Iniesta in the midfield. You can completely suppress your opponents, as long as you can press in the midfield and frontcourt. bit, there will definitely be no problem.”

Guardiola nodded, he thought so too.

Neither he nor Barcelona's management put pressure on performance during his first season in charge. They focused more on the team's metabolism and improving the team's tactics.

"Don't worry, don't feel pressured. I think you can do it." Gao Han encouraged with a smile.

Guardiola went to Monaco because he was one of the famous European coaches invited by the UEFA Head Coach Summit.

Therefore, he flew to Monaco in advance to meet Gao Han, and together with the head coaches of the two teams competing in the European Super Cup, Prandelli and Juande Ramos, the four of them traveled to Nyon, Switzerland.

The UEFA headquarters is located in the southern suburbs of Nyon, Switzerland, on the shores of Lake Geneva, a very beautiful place.

After the four Gao Han arrived, they checked into the hotel arranged by UEFA. Many old acquaintances such as Ferguson, Wenger, Benitez, and Heynckes had already arrived, so naturally they couldn't avoid greetings when they met.

The topic undoubtedly focused on the previous European awards ceremony. All five major awards were won by Gao Han players. Such a feat was unprecedented in European football. Not only did the media and fans around the world hype it up, but even these European The famous marshals are also envious.

This time, UEFA invited all the head coaches of first-tier European teams, especially those of wealthy teams, and they all arrived.

"I heard that they also invited Mourinho before, but he was rejected." Ferguson said with a smile.

Everyone immediately looked at Gao Han with interest. Everyone knew about the feud between him and Mourinho.

In response, Gao Han shrugged innocently and blamed me.

Mourinho's luck is indeed not good. When he resigned from Chelsea, he was still very popular. He was included in the selection lists of Barcelona and Real Madrid, and was even rumored by the media to have the opportunity to take over Inter Milan.

But no one expected that Inter Milan later accepted Gao Han's suggestion and chose Prandelli, and Barcelona also promoted Guardiola, also accepting Gao Han's suggestion.

What makes Mourinho even more embarrassed is that Real Madrid finally chose Schuster, who was not well-known and had basically never proven himself. This directly led to Mourinho being forced to rest at home and wait for a good opportunity.

Under this situation, coupled with his previous grievances with Gao Han, it is strange that he would come to Nyon, Switzerland.

"But, to be honest, you have to come up with something real this time, and don't talk nonsense." Ferguson is an old man. He has drunk with Gao Han countless times. The relationship is not close, so there is no need to talk. Mind the politeness.

What's more, most of the people present were old acquaintances, so how could there be anyone outside?

"Good news, absolutely good news." Gao Han assured with a smile.

Everyone's eyes lit up. Is it true?

Gao Han's coaching achievements since his debut are obvious to all. Putting aside the past, let's just say that Bayern Munich this season has left an extremely deep impression on people, both in terms of playing style and results. This has also made everyone admire Gao Han. I am very interested in his technical and tactical concepts and coaching ideas.

If he could really come up with useful information to share and communicate with, it would be of great benefit to everyone.

I won’t say whether I can learn something or not. At least I will be more confident in arranging my troops when facing Gao Han in the future.

Gao Han never thought about hiding his secrets, because coaching concepts are usually not something you can get by just locking yourself at home and racking your brains to think about it. It is often easier to stimulate inspiration by communicating with peers and testing through actual combat. and sparkles.

Many times, in the eyes of the fans, there is only victory or defeat in a game, but in the eyes of the head coach, they can often see and learn more, stimulating themselves to make progress and improve their team.

This is also the reason why many head coaches often find it difficult to succeed after leaving the front line for a long time.

For example, this was the case with Cooper and Heathfield before.

"Okay, no more words. I'd better go back to the room to get ready. I won't go to visit the UEFA headquarters later." As he spoke, Gao Han had already stood up and left.

Everyone knows that it is definitely a great honor to be able to speak at the European Head Coaches Summit. It is more influential than the speech in Coverciano, because this time I face all the top coaches in Europe. .

If it's a veteran head coach, such as Ferguson and Wenger, then that's it, but what about Gao Han?

A young man in his thirties is even younger than the players under some famous coaches, so it is normal to feel a little pressure.

"It seems that he is going to come up with real materials." Wenger chuckled expectantly.

Some people say that Gao Han has the secret to winning.

However, as Europe's top coaches, they definitely don't believe it, but they all believe that Gao Han must have done something right to achieve today's results.

Apart from anything else, Gao Han's set of ideas is worthy of their study and study.

Everyone present is a top-tier European coach. Naturally, they know that the tactical concepts in European football are changing with each passing day. They are improving and updating almost every season. It is undoubtedly good for them to be able to learn the latest European concepts in a timely manner.

But others responded with skepticism.

"I don't know if he can really come up with something useful. How old can he be at the highest level gathering of European football coaches?" Real Madrid's new coach Schuster shook his head.

From his tone, it seemed that he was not convinced by the treatment Gao Han received.

Everyone present was a little surprised. They did not expect that there are still people doubting Gao Han these days, especially Guardiola, Benitez and other people who usually have a good relationship with Gao Han. They looked at Schuster with anger.

Ferguson even snorted coldly on the spot, "If you can lead Real Madrid to a winning streak this next season and win all five major awards at next year's awards ceremony, then you will also be qualified to give a speech here next year."

Schuster's expression suddenly changed. He opened his mouth and wanted to retort, but in the end he endured it.

Who is Ferguson?

Among the current head coaches in European football, who can compare with him in terms of qualifications and status?

There are all first-line coaches present. Maybe some can surpass Ferguson in terms of performance, but no one will argue with him on the spot, right? What's more, Schuster hasn't had any impressive results so far.

After everyone heard Ferguson's words, they were all relieved and looked at Schuster with great schadenfreude. The Real Madrid coach had to leave angrily.

But in fact, many people present were also very concerned about Gao Han's speech the day after tomorrow.

Although his coaching performance is quite outstanding, if he wants to come up with convincing information on such occasions, he still needs a very solid theoretical foundation and rich coaching experience.

But in the final analysis, Gao Han is still too young.
