Chapter 592

The next morning, Gao Han welcomed Guardiola in the youth training center of Chinatown.

Accompanied by the New Barcelona coach is a middle-aged man in a white shirt who looks rather strong and is about thirty-five or thirty-six years old. He seems to be excited when he sees the cold.

"Ha, PEP, welcome to Chinatown."

Gao Han stood up to shake hands with Guardiola politely, and Guardiola also took the initiative to introduce the colleague.

"Are you Mauricio pochetino?"

Gao Han was a little surprised. He turned his head and looked at the resume material he had put on the sofa. The photo on it was an Argentinian with flowing long hair, but in front of him was a handsome guy with short hair. Is that too big a gap?

"That's a picture of me before I retired. You know, we all like long hair." Bochetino explained awkwardly.

Argentina players like to wear long hair, which seems to have a long history. Even now, many young players in Argentina are still chasing their idols in those years, especially with flowing long hair.

How to put it?

With long hair, bochetino looks a bit sloppy, but after cutting his hair short, he looks like a handsome uncle.

Fortunately, alpine is interested in this person, not the photo on the resume.

"Come on, sit down." Alpine asked them to sit down, "how did you come together?"

Guardiola and bochetino looked at each other and couldn't help laughing.

Barcelona and Spaniard are rivals in the same city. They play for the two teams respectively. Naturally, they are not unfamiliar with each other. When Guardiola called Gao Han last night and said he wanted to visit today, Gao Han also called bochetino and invited him to interview.

As a result, the two met by coincidence on the train.

It's also interesting to say that bochetino has played for the Spaniard for many years, but in the past few years when he was coaching Atletico Madrid in alpine, he just transferred to Paris Saint Germain in the French first division. After Alpine left Atletico Madrid, he returned to Spain, and the two were staggered by coincidence.

All three of them felt funny when they talked about it.

"To be honest, I don't know why you recommended me to be the head coach of Barcelona

After the joke, Guardiola looked seriously at Gao Han, one of the most admired coaches in his life.

Pochetino was surprised to hear that.

I've heard that Barcelona are pursuing the high cold before, but I didn't expect that it was the high cold that recommended Guardiola to be the coach of Barcelona. If it goes out, it will be a big news.

"No why, just think you'll do well." Gao Han said with a smile.

Guardiola a you don't tease me expression, "please, you know, I'm not ready at all."

"When do you think you'll be ready?" Gao Han asked with a smile.

Guardiola was speechless, and he didn't know very well.

"The job of coach is really crucial. For some people, it may take a lifetime to do this job, but for some people, it can be done without any effort. In my opinion, you belong to the latter."

Guardiola can't help but be moved. This is the highest praise of Gao Han for him.

"Maybe you don't find it, but I feel it deeply. From the time you play football, you have been a player who is diligent in thinking. You are thinking about why, how and how to change all the time. In the eyes of many players, it's just plain boring, but it's the most important quality of a head coach."

"It's like this when you're a player, as a coach, as an assistant, you're still like this. You like to get to the bottom of things and want to make it clear when you encounter things. You have very high requirements for yourself, and at the same time you can clearly convey what you want to others. I think you're ready."

Guardiola was stunned when he heard this. He didn't expect that Gao Han was paying attention to him all the time.

Even pochetino on one side can't help but be moved and reflect on himself. Is he like Guardiola?

"Originally, my advice to you is to start from the second team, get familiar with the environment of coaching alone and adapt to the change of identity. But later, you know what happened. Barcelona need a head coach. They come to me, but I think you are more suitable, so I recommend you."

"But I'm not sure." Guardiola is a bit helpless.

It will definitely be a new challenge for him.

When he plays football, he can be full of confidence. That's because he has played football for decades. From his debut, he has been highly expected by Barcelona. He only needs to follow the arrangement of the head coach.

Later, he became the assistant of alpine, and he didn't need to do anything, as long as he carried out according to the arrangement and wishes of Alpine.

But now, he's going to coach alone, and he's going to coach Barcelona, and he's going to be responsible to the management, to the players, and to all the Barcelona fans.

This is an unprecedented challenge for him.

"Listen to me, PEP." Alpine comfort toward Guardiola smile, "in fact, coaching a rich team is really not as difficult as you imagine, do you know why?"

Guardiola and bochettino are both in the dark, focusing on the cold.

"The key factor that determines your success or failure is not whether you have outstanding tactical literacy, because that is the second, on the contrary, your management ability and coordination and communication ability are the most important."

This is not hard to understand.

Just like a team like Barcelona, every player selected is the best in the world, and the overall strength is absolutely no problem. No matter who the head coach is, as long as we can make these players do their best to play for him, Barcelona's performance will certainly not be bad, and even have a good chance to win the championship.

However, it is not the tactical quality of the head coach that determines whether these players are willing to do their best for a manager, but the ability of management, coordination and communication, and the personal charm of the head coach.

Like Rijkaard, is he very capable?

With or without tengkat, those are two very different Rijkaard.

Why?

Because Rijkaard's football ability is not very good, even in team management is not strong, but he has a proud resume background, he is the idol of many active players from small to large, he can hold the scene.

As for tengkat, there is no doubt that he has strong football ability and excellent management, but without Rijkaard, who will listen to him? Who knows what the hell tengkat is?

Of course, that's only part of it.

Who is the head coach, but also determines how much support the club management.

If it's Rijkaard, he can let Barcelona bring in Eto'o, Ronaldinho and Deco for him. But if it's Teng Carter, let alone the three big stars, I'm afraid that the transfer fee of more than 20 million euro will have to be carefully calculated and pondered for a long time.

Gao's coaching experience is also the best proof. He has been climbing all the way from the bottom in Atletico Madrid, which is the proof of constantly gaining power and support from the club. In the future, no matter in Atletico Madrid, Chelsea, Inter Milan or Bayern Munich, he can buy whoever he wants.

How important is it to be able to get the manager to build the team he wants?

In the European football world, there are many coaches who have made outstanding achievements in the middle and lower reaches of the team, but they have suffered Waterloo like fiasco after switching to the top teams. What is the reason?

It's definitely not that he can't do anything in football, but that he doesn't fully understand the biggest difference between coaching a big family and coaching a middle and lower level team. In other words, he knows clearly, but he can't adjust his role well.

Coaching the middle and lower reaches of the team, want to achieve results, the ability of football is crucial.

Can coach a rich team, want to get results, football professional ability is only secondary.

Guardiola's situation is very similar to that of Rijkaard. He has a very proud background and can be recognized and supported by the fans and management without any effort.

As for his lack of football, does it matter?

He can look for some coaches with excellent professional ability to be assistants, can't he?

It's like the cold, physical training, he is far less than Buena Ventura, but what does that matter?

"Believe me, PEP, you can do it."

The encouragement of the high cold finally encouraged Guardiola.

The person he admired most was Alpine. Since Alpine said he could do it, there was no reason why he didn't have a try.

"When emery went to coach alone, I gave him a word. Now, I also give it to you."

Guardiola nodded solemnly, and bochetino listened attentively.

"Professional football is a crisscrossing Vanity Fair, which is intertwined with different interests of all sides. The position of head coach is the central point, and it is also the link that is most likely to produce contradictions."

"As a head coach, we must always be sober and rational. We always keep in mind what we want and what we pursue. Only in this way can we be more flexible in the face of complicated interest disputes and in dealing with various problems."

"To sum up, four words, do not forget the original intention."

Guardiola and bochetino both nodded their heads in earnest.

If Guardiola was worried about his gains and losses before he came here, now he is beginning to have a little confidence.

As for bochetino, he seems to have a new understanding of the high cold. He feels that the high cold in front of him completely overturns the impression of the high cold he learned from the newspapers in the past.

He even thought of his most respected teacher, belsa.

Argentinean madman is such a person, and has been practicing his belief, never compromising.

Gao Han is not a wordy person either. After making it clear to Guardiola, he immediately turned his head and looked at bochetino.

When he saw bochettino's resume yesterday, he specially scanned it with his eyes. This is a coach with extraordinary potential. What's more, bochettino's ideas are very similar to his own.

The disciples of belsa!

"Mauricio, I read the resume you submitted before. You retired last year, and then went to take the coach certificate."

"Yes." Bochettino replied solemnly, "I'm still studying, preparing for the highest level of coaching certificate."

Only the highest level of coaching certificate, he is qualified to coach the Spanish team.

"But I wonder why you want to coach our Chinatown team when you are coaching for the Spaniard's youth and women's football teams." Gao Han asked with interest.
