Star Coach

Jiangshan remembers very clearly that the 2012 Champions League final was between Bayern and Chelsea. Chelsea won the Champions League miraculously and became another world-renowned giant team in European football.

Of course, Chelsea will not be able to reach the Champions League final this season. Their striker Drogba is now in West Ham and has signed a 3-year contract.

Jiangshan gave this old subordinate enough face and gave him a three-year contract. When the contract expires, Drogba is nearly 36 years old. I wonder if he can be resold in the Chinese Super League?

After the draw results came out, several teams had different faces. But Jiangshan didn't think so much, he still had to face Barcelona.

Guardiola walked over easily. His head was very bald. It was estimated that he was under a lot of pressure as the head coach of Barcelona. "Coach Jiangshan, we meet again. This time, it's my turn to win, right?"

"Want to win? Of course, just beat West Ham." Jiangshan hugged Guardiola. This is his proud disciple.

Jiangshan has many disciples, and now they are all making waves in the football world. The earliest one was Tuchel, then Guardiola, Simeone, Pochettino, and now Jiangshan's assistant is Zidane.

He will also become the head coach in the future.

West Ham vs. Barcelona, ​​the Europa League champion vs. the Champions League champion, a warm-up match, but it is called the European Super Cup. The European champion teams have their own mentality and do not want to lose the championship.

The game that was played quickly after the Champions League draw attracted the head coaches of all European teams to watch the game on the spot. This game is destined to become a classic.

Jiangshan and Guardiola entered the field, one Europa League champion and one Champions League champion, and the European Super Cup champion will be decided today.

Ferguson, Wenger, Boas and Mancini, who are also Premier League opponents, are all sitting in the stadium seats, quietly waiting for the start of the game. They also want to find out the fighting power of West Ham. This season, West Ham is still a strong contender for the Premier League championship.

Mourinho and Simeone of La Liga also sat on the sidelines. Simeone has become the head coach of Atletico Madrid. Of course, he is still a little disappointed that the team sold Sanchez to Barcelona.

Bayern head coach Van Gaal was also on the sidelines, with a calm face, as if he was sure of victory, "Guardiola was also my apprentice back then, let me feel this guy's progress. Jiangshan - he is really hard to deal with. In this season's Champions League, we have to win the first place in the group, and the pressure is not small."

Klopp wore a baseball cap, "Everyone is afraid of Barcelona's passing and controlling tactics. I guess only Jiangshan and I can crack it. What kind of lineup will Jiangshan arrange today?"

Jiangshan saw the coaching lineup on the sidelines, his face was calm, and he waved to the coaches to thank them for watching the game. Jiangshan's ease in handling the situation immediately attracted the media to compete for photos.

Guardiola was much more obedient. He didn't have the star aura of Jiangshan. He walked into the field steadily, his mind full of today's tactics, "Guys, remember our tactics. We can beat them by playing the usual way."

Pique was slightly injured and couldn't play, but like a political commissar, he encouraged his teammates, "The Premier League teams are most afraid of our passing and controlling tactics. Brothers, let's do a big job today and show everyone that we are the top team in Europe."

Guardiola's main players came out in full force. He had been looking forward to it for a long time. "Today is the day I beat Jiangshan. Thank God for letting him win the Europa League. Otherwise, I thought we wouldn't be able to play against each other on the stage of the Super Cup!"

Guardiola, who was proud of the Champions League championship, was full of confidence. He touched his bald head and felt great. He suddenly discovered that there was another bald head on the opposite side, and it was balder than his and shinier...

Goalkeeper Valdes, Barcelona's main goalkeeper, was underestimated. His national team career was also very tragic. He was suppressed by Casillas and had difficulty in making a breakthrough. Fortunately, he thrived in Barcelona.

On the back line, Alves, Mascherano, Puyol, and Abidal are the main players among the main players. On the bench is the newly promoted left-back Adriano.

The golden trio in the midfield, Xavi, Busquets and Iniesta, are one of the magic weapons for Barcelona to sweep across Europe. The other magic weapon is, of course, Messi on the forward line.

On the forward line, Messi is in the middle, with Pedro and Villa on both sides, the main lineup last season. On the bench are the captain Fabregas who transferred from Arsenal, and the newly bought Sanchez and other players, all waiting for opportunities.

West Ham also let David Silva go. He was arranged by Jiangshan to rest and sat depressed on the bench, waiting for an opportunity.

In the goalkeeper position, the skinny De Gea is still there. This season, he was completely promoted by Jiangshan and directly ascended to the main position. Veteran Friedel became his main substitute.

There is not much suspense on the defensive line. Although Danilo is also good, he can only play as a substitute at present. Baines, Cahill, Hummels and Glen Johnson are a combination of sufficient hardness and speed.

In the midfield, it is still a configuration of four midfielders, a combination of Reus, Kroos, Modric and Bale. Jiangshan wants to let Ferguson know that 442 can still kill Barcelona. His 451 is too weak and it is not easy to control the game.

On the forward line, Lewandowski and Suarez started together. The two of them have enough tacit understanding and are very lethal. The newly joined Drogba sat on the bench, looking forward to it.

Under the watchful eyes of all the head coaches, this peak showdown finally began.

Barcelona took the lead in kicking off. They were not in a hurry to attack. They controlled the ball in the backcourt and attracted West Ham players to come forward.

West Ham did go up, they raised the defense very high, the front players ran very fast, and many players gathered near the center circle.

"Is it still the same trick? Quick counterattack? Hehe, it's useless to me." Guardiola saw that the team controlled the rhythm of the game, and he relaxed a lot. West Ham players rarely broke into Barcelona's backcourt.

After all, Lewandowski's body was in place, and he couldn't be in a high-speed running state throughout the game.

The ball was passed from Puyol's feet to Alves, Alves knocked the ball to Busquets, Busquets took a step, and faced Lewandowski's harassment, and easily passed it to Xavi's feet.

At this time, West Ham's rhythm changed, Kroos suddenly rushed up, Xavi quickly turned around, and protected the ball with his back. Kroos didn't kick, and two or three teammates had already come over, forming a situation of encirclement and suppression.

It was a bit uncomfortable, Xavi didn't dare to advance, knocked the ball back, and distributed it to the backcourt. West Ham's players let them pass on the back line, and only Suarez made simple harassment.

Barcelona continued to test and passed the ball to Iniesta. Facing Modric, Iniesta quickly passed the ball to Pedro. Pedro hadn't started yet, but was targeted by Bale.

At this time, Bale was in a very backward position, staring at Pedro. Glen Johnson, Suarez, and Modric all came over, and once again formed a siege near the midfield.

"Barcelona can't break West Ham's defense?" Mourinho was a little surprised.

Ferguson's face changed slightly, "Is this... a high-position pressing near the midfield?" Several head coaches were moved. Sure enough, the pressing tactics arranged by Jiangshan at the beginning were very effective.

A few minutes after the opening, Barcelona fell behind, with a possession rate but no damage.

Unable to pass the ball to the dangerous area in the backcourt of West Ham, the possession rate had no effect at all. Jiang Shan sat in the coaching booth, looking at the players on the field calmly, "It's worth our training for so long, it's working out a little bit."

"It's more than just working, it's strangling Barcelona's throat." Zidane was very excited.
