my name is colane

523 Chapter 251
On the empty training ground, Ranieri met Hugo, the real boss of the team. This is actually not the first time the two have met. They have met before, but they are not familiar with each other and have not greeted each other.

Ranieri tried to talk to Hugo about his ideas, but Hugo was not interested. He said to Ranieri: "Mr. Ranieri, I will not interfere with your ideas. I just hope that the team can reverse the decline as soon as possible. , Alex said well, we are not completely in crisis now, the season has just begun, and our goal is still to determine good results on all fronts! The next step is up to you!"

Are you really not going to let me speak? !Ranieri has been preparing for a long time. Since he and Giorgio finalized the agreement, Ranieri has seriously started to study the materials sent over, staying up late to watch Trapani's game videos, of course he did not watch them all. He is an old man who is very good at learning, otherwise it would be impossible for him to play well in several major league teams.

He specifically selected some classic Trapani games to watch. These games were won or lost, especially the recent video games of the league losing streak. He watched them all, looked for problems and solutions, and prepared to deal with Hugo Rhetoric, make yourself like a candidate for an exam.

Who knew that Hugo didn't care about this, Ranieri was rather resentful, listening to Hugo's words, he said: "I think the team has a good foundation, I believe I can change the current situation!"

Hugo smiled and took him around the training base himself. Giorgio whispered to Kuttner: "Jurgen Klinsmann didn't get such treatment, and Hugo didn't come here in person! It can be seen Gigi attaches great importance to Mr. Ranieri!"

Kuttner was a little relieved.

Both he and Ranieri came to the Pacheco training base in Trapani for the first time. Needless to say, this base is quite powerful, with all the facilities, the most advanced medical center, and first-class training venues. There is also a first-class youth training base here. In short, it is not comparable to those teams that Ranieri coached before, which makes Ranieri very satisfied.

Hugo also took him to the construction site of Sea Giants. The stadium now has some foundations. It was originally estimated that the construction would take more than three years, but now it is only a little over a year. The emergence of the problem has actually delayed the construction period of this stadium.

The Big Mac is Hugo's proud capital. The old gentleman Ranieri really complimented the young Hugo, which made Hugo very satisfied.

The news from the media was very fast. In fact, Trapani's selection of coaches was relatively fast this time. They only realized today that it was Claudio Ranieri.

It's not Lippi that everyone is optimistic about, even though Lippi has emphasized that Lao Tzu has retired, I can't stand everyone's disbelief.

Whether Ranieri is suitable or not, the media have given their opinions, and most of them think that Trapani's choice of Ranieri is actually a wise decision, and he is suitable for making up the mess.

The next morning Trapani held a press conference where Ranieri took the stage, and Giorgio signed a formal contract with Ranieri on behalf of the club.

At the press conference, Ranieri talked eloquently, of course not bragging. He said that he was very happy to receive Trapani's invitation to coach and thanked the club for their trust in him.

The invited reporters from all walks of life began to ask questions. Since Ranieri is a lovely old man, the reporters did not make things difficult for him. Of course, there were a few tricky questions, and the old fritter Ranieri easily pushed them away.

At noon, Ranieri invited the team's coaching staff to have a light meal at the Colani Hotel. Moreover, Giorgio also strictly restricted the people he brought, and only allowed him to bring two coaches. He had no choice but to use Barias and the others who had gathered in Trapani for many years.

This is where Ranieri is smarter. This group of people not only stayed in Trapani for many years, but they can also talk directly to Hugo, and have a close relationship with many players on the team. The team plays a very important role.

Barias, Lombardi, and N'Kono all made promises to Ranieri at the dinner table that they would assist him wholeheartedly.

Ranieri is actually more worried about Barias. The No. [-] assistant coach has just led the team to the first victory of the new season. Ranieri is worried that this old man has the idea of ​​​​becoming a head coach. How can he know? People don't have this idea.

At the dinner table, Barias and the others told Ranieri clearly about the team's situation, without ambiguity at all. Ranieri was relieved, and at the dinner table Ranieri gave his own tactical ideas The helpers told the whole story, quite frankly, and even clearly told everyone why the 433 formation was adopted.

Barias and others secretly admired him, and had to say that this old guy is a genius!

Training in the afternoon, the training of the players is still the same, Ranieri came to the training ground with a happy face, the players were told yesterday that Ranieri will become the head coach of the team, so they are not surprised.

Ranieri greeted everyone with a smile, showing a friendly image, giving the players a very good first impression.

Immediately, Ranieri began to talk to the players of the team. The first wave was a few players from the Presbyterian Church, including captain Tony, Barzagli, Kameni, old goalkeeper Fontana, Mascherano, Esperanto. Fra.

In the tactical meeting room, Ranieri said: "I am really glad to come to Trapani to work with you! I am familiar with everyone here, and I often watch Trapani games!"

With Ranieri's laughter, the players of the Elders were very relaxed. Ranieri began to talk about everything about the team, and slowly got closer to everyone. After getting acquainted with Ranieri, he said to everyone: "Now we Looks like we're in a bit of trouble, the team did a great job last game, but one win doesn't mean we're on the mend, does it?! We all need to keep working hard!"

"Today I will talk to you first, because you are the veterans of the team and have great influence in the locker room. To be honest, only if you are of the same mind as me, can we cooperate sincerely and knead this team together again!"

The elders gave Ranieri a lot of face. One is that the old man is not ordinary and has a good reputation. The other is that the old man is really soft-spoken and will not make people feel difficult to contact.So everyone said, "We definitely support you!"

Ranieri began to slowly talk about his thoughts on how to change this team. Of course, this time he will not say that I became 433 because you have a lot of midfielders.

In fact, this formation is very easy to be recognized by the Elders. First of all, this formation team is no stranger, really no stranger. They have played in the Zeman era and the Hugo era. It can be said that Trapani started with 433 in Serie A. unfamiliar? !
Secondly, Tony has no problem. If there are two forwards, he may prefer it, but he has no problem with single forwards. A single forward means that he has to fight hard in front, while a double forward can help him share the pressure in the middle, which is more beneficial. his play.

So from the bottom of my heart, Tony prefers the team to use a double striker tactic, but he has never been against the head coach. Ranieri said that he would not vote against it if he wanted to do this.

In the end, most of the Elders have a good relationship with Mascherano. After all, we have been together for so many years. Klinsmann's 442 was hit hardest by Mascherano and Pizarro. There is always a relationship. , 433 has an extra midfield position, which will give Mascherano more opportunities, so everyone can support it.

So Ranieri actually did not take much effort to convince the veterans to support him. This guy gathered the two most important forces of the team on his first day, which shows his strong ability.

But that's not all. Ranieri used the afternoon to get to know almost all the players of the team.
