star coach

Chapter 72 Roses have thorns
Soon enough, the race was rolling into November.

The world is boring, and the youth team has been playing smoothly without much disturbance. The team tops the list, leading No. 28 points.

Jiangshan also took the time to apply for a PRO license, and has letters of recommendation from famous marshals such as Wukang University, Bosque, Saki, and Cooper. He has entered the final stage, and he hopes to issue a certificate early next year.

As long as he gets the certificate, he is the youngest owner of a PRO coaching license.

Because of this, Jiangshan has a close brother who has free time to play guest players, helping Saki adjust the mentality of the first-team players.But the effect was mediocre. Jiangshan's psychological massage was over, and Saki smothered the player with a sap.

There are conflicts between the top management and Saki, and there are internal strife within the team. If they can achieve good results, they will definitely be overwhelmed.Therefore, the performance of the Monaco team surprised fans all over the world, and it was ridiculously bad.

The team that ranked second in the league last season, recruited heavily in the summer and spent tens of millions of euros, and announced to the outside world that the run-in is unfavorable?Is this the reason why the league standings fell to the second half?Nearly halfway through the season, Monaco ranks just 15th.Just 5 points above the relegation zone, if you are not careful, you will fall into the abyss of relegation.

If not for the first 5 rounds of the UEFA Champions League group stage, with two wins, two draws and one loss, the points are as high as 8 points, and the hope of qualifying for the group stage has become Sacchi's last fig leaf, otherwise Sacchi will be dismissed in October.

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

In the last round, Monaco will challenge Inter Milan in an away game, while Ajax only needs to play against Rosenborg at home. If Monaco loses and Ajax wins, Monaco can only go to the UEFA Cup.

The top brass continued to exert pressure, and the fans began to boo.Saki has been very irritable lately, and half of her eyebrows have fallen out.

There are a bunch of strong players in the team, and they can't be twisted into one rope for a long time. They fight on their own, and there are constant internal strife. If there are serious problems in the league, they will give up by default.

During this period of time, many media reported on the internal strife in Monaco with embellishments, and the conflict between Sacchi, players and high-level officials became a topic that fans talked about.Jiangshan, on the other hand, has been described as the bond that barely maintains Monaco.

It's just a confidant brother, do the players want to be so hard?When I coach, will you support me?Jiang Shan counted the time, and the head coach of Monaco seemed to be beckoning to him.

Seeing the media reports, Prince Albert consciously seized the opportunity. He was good at dancing with his sleeves, kept walking, adding fuel to the fire, and he also worked hard to get rid of the bald Saki.

Soon, the club chairman Jean Campola couldn't bear the pressure of the team's performance, and nodded in agreement to fire Sacchi.But he didn't want Prince Albert to be the only one, and he strongly advocated inviting Deschamps, who coached in England, to support the rest of the season before signing a long-term contract.

" Deschamps used to be a well-known French football player, and he has coaching experience in the top league. The players are very convinced, and he must be more suitable than Jiangshan." Campola plausibly said, "Jiangshan is only the head coach of the reserve team. Good performance in coaching the youth team does not mean that he can lead the adult team."

Prince Albert was furious, "The youth team is undefeated so far, and Jiangshan has a good relationship with the players. In any case, we must give him a chance to coach the rest of the season."

"No, I don't agree." Campola gritted his teeth. "The personnel of the team is in my hands, and I should be the one to choose the head coach. Give you the head coach of the youth team, that's enough!"

Finally, Albert released his big move, "When I invited Jiang Shan to coach, I told him that as long as there is a vacancy for the head coach of the first team, he will be the substitute. It is clearly stated in the contract."

"The contract is written, that's good. The contract has liquidated damages, just terminate Jiangshan's contract and pay him liquidated damages." Campola sneered, "How much liquidated damages can a youth team coach have?"

It's not that Monaco has no money, it's not that it hasn't terminated the contract with the coach.Sacchi was fired, and the compensation was only 500 million U.S. dollars, let alone a youth team coach.

"You want to give him money?" Prince Albert smiled and threw out Jiangshan's contract, "Okay, if you want to give it, you can give it. 1000 million US dollars, how do you give it?"

"My sun..." Campola jumped up from the table with a rooster in his body, "What the hell did you give a youth team coach 1000 million US dollars in liquidated damages? Your family opened a bank?"

"It's ridiculous, it's just nonsense." Campola almost collapsed. Albert, no matter how young and ignorant, shouldn't be so confused. The head coach's liquidated damages are only 500 million U.S. dollars, and the youth team's head coach has tied up 1000 million U.S. dollars. What's wrong?

The two sides were deadlocked.Grand Duke Renier, the father of Prince Albert, said, "The Monaco team is the signature of the Principality of Monaco, and it must not be messed up. But you are all responsible for the development of this season."

"There is no hope for the league this season, but there is still a chance of reaching the second group stage of the Champions League. As long as the team is stable, there may be hope for further progress." Grand Duke Renier said slowly, "You can set a condition with Jiangshan, which is to lead the team to the second group stage of the Champions League."

The season is not over yet, and the team is 18 points behind the top team in the standings, declaring that there is no hope of winning the championship. However, the hope of the top [-] of the Champions League is still there. As long as they win away games, they can advance.

Renier didn't pay attention to who would be the head coach, but the conflicts within the top management had to be resolved, with his son on one side and the team president on the other.

Prince Albert wants to be in power. Yes, Jiangshan has made achievements and reached the second round of the Champions League group stage, which is the top [-]. Albert can justifiably support him, and Campola has nothing to say.

Campora wants to stay in power?It's also okay, if Jiang Shan can't make achievements, talk about how to fire him, and the termination fee will definitely be less than 1 million US dollars.

Renier is actually not optimistic about the country, what kind of climate can young people achieve?But inexplicably let the team pay 1 million US dollars for a buyout, which hurts.

"Yes, that's the way to do it." Campola said harshly, "It's only 1 million US dollars, and we can't afford it. Let's see whether he wants money or coaching! If not, we will slowly file a lawsuit to see whether he wants to take the coaching road or earn 1000 million. Humph!"

Albert fought for a few words, but failed to convince the two old foxes.If the team deliberately procrastinates on Jiangshan's contract issue, Jiangshan will not be able to fight the team in a war of attrition anyway?

Countless big-name coaches terminated their contracts in the end, and all they got was part of the termination fee. Time cost is a very important issue for famous coaches.

The dawn has already come, and Albert decided to make it clear to Jiang Shan that it would be best for Jiang Shan to take on this challenge, otherwise follow the rules and see who is not afraid of consumption.

The 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 will definitely be able to enter if he wins Inter Milan; the tie depends on the results of Ajax and Rosenborg. Rosenborg is unreliable!

In other words, Monaco must win Inter Milan.

"Mr. Cooper, are you meeting again?" Jiang Shan murmured.
