Super Coach

Panting uncontrollably, he drank two bottles of water in one gulp. He couldn't help the water loss from his whole body in sweat. He opened another bottle and drank a few sips from time to time.

Chiellini looked at his teammates talking and laughing in the distance, and he felt that he was very bad.

In Livorno before, his physical fitness was considered good, but when he came to Inter Milan, he will tragically find that his physical fitness is not even as good as Recoba, who is known as the worst in the team; his speed in Livorno used to be very high. It's almost there, but when he came to Inter Milan, he found that his speed had no room to play at all.

why?

Because they all pass the ball!

Realizing this, this Italian teenager who was originally ambitious and wanted to break out in Inter Milan and become a top superstar under Caesar's account had to collapse after a few days of training sessions. Ask yourself, why on earth am I at Inter Milan?

Several times, he really really wanted to ask Caesar, what are you looking for in me?

But every time he held back, because he didn't dare, and didn't want to!

To him, joining Inter Milan was like stepping into heaven. A boy who couldn't even play in the C1 League could join Inter Milan. This is even more fairy tale than Cinderella.

So he cherishes it very much and works very hard. He doesn't want to leave Inter Milan, as if no one is willing to go back to hell after entering heaven.

But in private, he asked himself countless times, am I worthy of Inter Milan?

To put it bluntly, he is inferior to many young players in the Inter Milan team, especially in terms of technology.

Taking advantage of the rest, Chiellini was distressed, while Yang Cheng and others in the distance were judging.

Many members of the coaching staff still maintain their views. Chiellini is not suitable for the first team, so it is best to go to the second team first.

Yang Cheng looked at Paul Bayer, the German smiled wryly and shook his head, Typical Italian youth training!

Caesar laughed, It seems that you all think he is inappropriate!

All the coaches nodded, let's not talk about anything else, just talk about technology, Chiellini's technology is very poor.

Of course, this cannot be blamed on him, because he is also a victim.

Throughout the history of Italian football,

Sacchi is definitely a very, very important great man. He redefined the Italian football style, from the original chain defense to a chain zone defense. His tactics take the limitation of space as the core concept, and use this Expand the layout.

Sacchi's achievements are great, and his contribution to Italian football is undoubted, but not many people can see his damage to Italian football.

Everything has two sides, and everyone prefers to see the good side and ignore the bad side.

Sacchi's tactical system pays attention to areas and emphasizes the limitation of space. This has formed a youth training system that specifically caters to Sacchi's tactical concepts. This is natural and Sacchi can't control it, because when Italian teams respect When he used this tactic, the youth training naturally followed him, and no one could control it.

Therefore, the Italian team's selection criteria for youth training is more inclined to players with outstanding physical fitness, but this is only a matter of selection. The real crux is that the Italian youth training system pays more attention to the training of tactics, because they believe that tactics The learning of football is a gradual process. Even the coach himself can hardly understand a certain tactic immediately, so it should be cultivated from a young age.

There is also the mentality, they have to learn how to deal with the tense game atmosphere since they were young!

When Yang Cheng came to Inter Milan, the Intrelo training camp focused most on theoretical teaching. They would start with areas, formations, etc., instill a lot of theories in the players, and complete the theory through drills on the court. practice.

And what caused all this is precisely the brilliant achievements that Sacchi made back then, which made future generations too lost.

Yang Cheng has been in charge of Inter Milan for three years, overthrowing all this in one fell swoop. The level of Inter Milan's youth training has been improved immediately, and it has returned to the road of emphasizing technology and creativity.

But Chiellini's technical level is exactly the level of Italian youth training, and it is still at the level of youth training in low-level leagues.

He won't be able to play in the first team for the time being, but he will train with the first team and play with the second team! Yang Cheng made the most appropriate arrangement, but then he added: I still say the old saying, I believe he will be an excellent centre-back and he will be the future of Inter!

Do you want to bet?

All the coaches shook their heads and laughed, but no one paid any attention to him.

After the training session at noon, everyone returned to the locker room to take a shower, change clothes, and prepare to go to the cafeteria to eat.

The boss said, go to his office after dinner! Bergomi came over and ordered with a smile.

Chiellini was taken aback, he was a little worried.

Don't worry, it's just an ordinary chat! Bergomi said with a smile.

Chiellini was relieved, but during the whole meal, he was thinking about meeting Yang Cheng later.

For him, Caesar is a high-ranking king, and he is just an insignificant commoner under the king's rule. A word from the king can determine his life and death, and determine his future.

However, it could be seen that he was quite a strong person, and he knocked on the door of Yang Cheng's office without lingering after eating.

Come in! Yang Cheng shouted from inside.

Seeing that it was Chiellini, he smiled, Come on, sit down! He pointed to the chair in front of him.

No matter when, talking and communicating with players is an indispensable link and means for Yang Cheng to manage a team.

The TV in the office is playing some videos of the training sessions in the past few days, and almost all of them are related to Chiellini, which makes him feel warm, ashamed, and worried, which is very complicated. Mood.

Tell me about your experience after joining the team, Giorgio! Yang Cheng said with a smile.

Seeing Yang Cheng's encouraging eyes, Chiellini thought for a while, I think..., he hesitated and couldn't speak.

Don't worry, speak boldly, you can ask any questions you have! Yang Cheng encouraged.

Chiellini looked at Yang Cheng, and finally decided to go all out, Boss, I don't understand, why do you take a fancy to me?

Yang Cheng laughed, guessing that this question must have puzzled Chiellini for a long time.

How old are you?

Almost 18! Chiellini replied.

Yang Cheng nodded, If I tell you that I like you because of your strength, you must not believe it, because I don't even believe it myself.

Chiellini nodded secretly, his strength is not even as good as Inter Milan's second team.

Yang Cheng stood up and commented unceremoniously: In my opinion, your strength is very bad, and you can even say that you are not worthy of the current Inter Milan team, but I still think that you will play in Inter Milan. Succeeded, do you know why?

Chiellini hurriedly stood up, saw Yang Cheng who had walked to the office window, and shook his head, he didn't understand.

I believe in feelings. When I saw Ruud van Nistelrooy, I thought, this kid shouldn't play in midfield, he should play forward; when I saw Veron, I thought this guy can't play wide. , no speed, no impact, dead; when I saw you, I thought, this kid should play central defender or left back.

Speaking of this, Yang Cheng walked to the front of the TV, and quickly rewinded for a while, which happened to show some details of the confrontation between Chiellini and Ruud van Nistelrooy yesterday. Yang Cheng pointed to the TV and asked, Did you see anything?

Chiellini nodded, Well, my performance was terrible!

Yang Cheng laughed, he felt that Chiellini was very frank, and he was not afraid to admit his own badness at all.

That's not what I meant, I meant Fonny!

Chiellini watched for a while, then shook his head.

I deliberately asked you to partner with Nesta and fight against Ruud van Nistelrooy for several days in a row. Do you think that you can't defend against Ruud van Nistelrooy? Can you break through your defense? Even several times, you think you must block him, but he can shoot from an unexpected place?

Yes! Chiellini blurted out.

Yang Cheng's words spoke from his heart.

Do you know why?

Chiellini shook his head.

Because he has the wisdom of running off the ball that is far inferior to yours, and his judgment of the court space is absolutely phenomenal. These are far inferior to you. Even a top central defender like Nesta, defensive Van Nistelrooy struggles.

How could Ruud van Nistelrooy score goals in the narrow penalty area if he didn't have an outstanding sense of space?

According to the training ideas you have received since you were young, you have already agreed in your mind that defense is passive and offense is active, but in fact it is not like this. In our Inter Milan tactics, I can tell you , Defense is the same as offense, both are active!

Seeing that Chiellini didn't understand, Yang Cheng laughed and rewinded to Nesta's defensive segment again.

Look carefully, is the reason why Nesta's defense can keep up with Martins' speed is because he is very fast? No, it is because he made a judgment earlier than Martins, that is to say, he Before Martins made a move, he had predicted Martins' next move.

Not only one-on-one confrontation, but also intercepting the opponent's passing route, filling the defensive loopholes in the team, filling up for your teammates, etc. These are not passive, but you need to be proactive. Because being passive means being beaten, our tactics at Inter Milan are to beat people, not to be beaten!

For you, there are two things that must be done now. One, technique, whether it is the technique when holding the ball, such as stopping the ball, passing the ball, etc., or the technique when you are man-marking, I would like to say a little stricter. To be harsh, you are destined not to be an attacker in this life, if you want to be a defender, you must have good marking skills.

Today's defensive system is a combination of zone defense and man-to-man tactics. It is difficult to define who is who and which is more important. The key lies in the switching during the game, but no matter how it changes, a defender is indispensable. In the face of direct confrontation, the importance of marking is here.

Having said that, Yang Cheng took out the disc from the DVD, put it in the box, and handed it to Chiellini.

Take it back and look at it slowly. Nesta and Bergomi are very worthy of your study. Their marking skills, especially their close marking skills are very good. Nesta is undoubtedly the perfect central defender in modern football. Incarnation, Bergomi is a typical representative of the Italian traditional marking central defender, although some cannot keep up with the evolution of tactics, but it is good for you!

Chiellini took the DVD from Yang Cheng, and he knew it was a gift from Yang Cheng.

I'll let Moniz and Meulenstein develop a basic technical strengthening training for you. It's very boring, but it works. Just ask Luca Tony about this. He has benefited a lot! Yang Cheng Hehe smiled.

After Luca Tony came to the team, Yang Cheng gave him special training, and his basic technical training did not fail. Now his performance is getting better and better, a large part of which is because of his skillful and The use is getting better and better.

Sometimes, on the football field, the most powerful skills are often not those fancy technologies, on the contrary, the simplest, most practical, and most inconspicuous basic technologies are the most terrible!

Therefore, those oxtails, Marseille maneuvers, and pendulums that fans tout are meaningless and can only increase some impression points. The key for a player to truly reach the top lies in the foundation.

There are many things in football, it is complicated to say, but simple to say it is actually very simple!

…………

…………

After sending Chiellini away, Yang Cheng returned to his desk and sat down.

Undoubtedly, the coaching staff gave him a very low evaluation. Apart from his speed and physical fitness, he really couldn't see anything worthy of praise, but Yang Cheng still decided to improve him.

So Yang Cheng told Chiellini just now that he will continue to arrange him to fight against the forwards in the future. At the same time, he cannot meet the requirements of the first team for the time being, so he can only train with the first team and play games with the second team.

Chiellini has no objection to these. He is not even considered a rookie, and Yang Cheng's arrangement is something he cannot refuse. What's more, Yang Cheng has already shown that he attaches great importance to him.

To put it bluntly, Chiellini will not be able to rely on it in a short period of time, but the team currently has three central defenders, and Ferrari can also play alone. Yang Cheng feels that instead of introducing a central defender to waste, it is better to introduce a central defender. He has been crafted by famous rookies to prepare for the future.

Sitting on the boat of Inter Milan, Yang Cheng certainly hopes that the boat can run faster. No matter how long he will stay in Inter Milan, he hopes that Inter Milan will continue to be strong.

…………

Inter Milan trained in Pinzolo and played the first warm-up match with the local team. As a result, Inter Milan won the opponent 3-0 with Ruud van Nistelrooy's outstanding performance. The central defender combination of Ferrari and Nesta guaranteed The team's backline.

After that, Inter Milan played two warm-up matches with surrounding teams, and they also defeated their opponents successively. The defense was in place, and the opponents were clean, but they did not score many goals. They scored 8 goals in 3 warm-up matches. It is some low-level league teams, and the offense is really not strong enough.

But one thing that must be noted is that Inter Milan is currently playing a lot.

After Ronaldo and other players who participated in the World Cup final returned to the team, they immediately went to the team under the command of Chris Schmidt and Tim Hank to make up for the previous training. This made the players' performance not exciting enough. After all A lot of high-intensity physical reserve training made their bodies very tired.

Yang Cheng was very satisfied with the team's preparations, so after three intensive warm-up matches, the team left the small town of Pinzolo and returned to Milan for another warm-up match against a nearby Como, Inter Milan, which has recently entered the stage of physical recovery, has improved a lot compared to before, slaughtering opponents 5-0 at home.

Afterwards, the team will continue to stay at the Pinettina base for training, and then will go to Turin to participate in the Moretti Beer Cup. This time, besides Inter Milan and Juventus, there is another team from the Premier League, Chelsea. This is very surprising.

It was at this time that internal strife broke out in Juventus.

After the friendly match with Lazio, the Dutch midfielder Davies had a conflict with the head coach Lippi. The reason was that Lippi adjusted his tactics after taking office. After leaving Zidane, it has a lot to do with not making up players in time.

But in this way, the role of the Dutchman Davis in the Bianconeri has dropped a lot. Last season, Lippi replaced the Dutchman halfway on the grounds that it did not match the overall tactics. Just put him on the bench and don't give him a chance to start. Even the old captain Conte got more appearances than him.

In this season's warm-up match, Davis still failed to qualify for the main team, and even rumors of discord between him and Lippi broke out many times. Capello welcomed Davis to join Roma very much, because the Dutchman can transfer energy. He can control the shot, and is still a defender who can't run to death. He has never been short of next targets.

Juventus was also negotiating with Roma at first, but then Lippi said something in the newspaper about keeping Davies, and Moggi canceled the negotiation. For this reason, Sensi also bombarded Moggi for playing with him some type of.

Because of this matter, Davis was depressed, and then in Lazio's warm-up match, Davis did not come off the bench until the 80th minute. Kill me! I want a transfer! I don't want to stay here again!

Lippi replied, I am the head coach, if I don't nod, no one will leave!

As a result, the two fought in the locker room. It is said that it was as tragic as Ferguson's flying boot incident. However, the media did not report the follow-up of the conflict in detail, and only got some inside information from some players in the locker room.

It is not difficult to see from this point that after Lippi returned to take charge of the team, Juventus failed to stop Inter Milan after spending a lot of money last season. The team was under a lot of pressure, especially Lippi , As the head coach, the pressure is even greater, which casts a shadow over the journey of the new season.

When Yang Cheng heard the news, his first reaction was to be happy.

Let the storm be more violent! Someone was gloating unscrupulously.
