Chapter 858： Koeman is a good coach!

After watching the Madrid Derby in Madrid, Yang Huan rushed back to the UK the next day without stopping.

In the afternoon, he appeared at the Glory Stadium in Southampton to watch the Saints play against Newcastle.

As one of Yang Huan's enemies, Ashley's big mouth once again made a statement before the game, believing that the Magpies, who have not won a victory in the new season, will take three points from the Glory Stadium.

This has become a hot topic that many people joked before the game.

As a result, in the afternoon’s game, with Suarez’s two goals, Di Maria and Sanchez’s goals, the Saints beat Newcastle four-to-zero at home, winning their four-game winning streak in the new season and drawing fiercely. Ashley’s mouth was closed.

Three days later, sitting at home, the Saints ushered in the Bundesliga powerhouse Schalke 04.

Although, in the game, Schalke 04 took the lead in taking advantage of a set-kick opportunity and broke the Southampton goal.

But this goal also completely aroused the blood of the Saints.

Just nine minutes after Schalke 04 scored, the Saints got a long shot from Matic to equalize the score.

After that, Danilo, Sturridge and Suarez scored goals and beat Schalke 04 four to one at home, winning the first round of the Champions League group stage.

However, Atletico Madrid was not so lucky.

Simeone's team had just smashed Real Madrid at the Bernabeu Stadium and won a hearty victory. After expedition to Greece, they encountered an ambush by Olympiacos in Greece, which was unexpectedly 2-3 and lost away.

This game also fully exposed some of the problems that were concealed after the victory over Real Madrid.

For example, the bench lineup and the running-in of the team.

Judging from the cards, Atletico Madrid’s bench lineup is not bad, and there is basically no problem with the striker. In the midfield, the veteran Gaby still plays a huge role. The newly joined Brazilian player Alex Teixeira is also favored by Simeone. sure.

There are also local teenagers like Samper, Rafinha, Saul, Oliver Torres, etc., who are equally talented.

But the key issue is how to establish an effective rotation mechanism, and how to grind the team into a model as soon as possible.

Relying on that set of starting lineups, Atletico Madrid is unlikely to succeed in multi-line combat.

There is another unlucky thing that is tragically reminded that after Real Madrid's disastrous defeat to Atletico Madrid, after turning around, they beat Basel in Switzerland at the Bernabeu Stadium 5-1.

This made Yang Huan very dumbfounded.

Could it be said that Real Madrid can't beat the eldest brother and the second elder brother, so they specifically select the younger brother to start?

Nimei, as for the fight so hard?

As the saying goes, the leaks in the house happen to rain overnight.

Both Atletico Madrid and Basel lost, Benfica won and it was boring. They lost to Zenit St. Petersburg by a zero-2 at home, which made Yang Huan very depressed.

In terms of strength, Benfica is not better than Zenit St. Petersburg, but at least it's about the same.

Unexpectedly, losing at home, really...

Forget it, don't swear.

Of course, there is also good news, that is, Ajax drew Paris Saint-Germain 1-1 at home, while Anderlecht drew Galatasaray from Turkey at home.

This result is not bad for Ajax and Anderlecht.

But the biggest surprise came from Monaco.

What even Yang Huan didn’t expect was that Monaco was sitting at the Louis II Stadium. With Mitrovic’s hat-trick, Tovan, Fekir and Carrasco’s goals, they beat Belarus’s Bauer 6-0. The Lisov team won their debut after a long absence and returned to the Champions League.

This battle not only excited the fans of Monaco, but even Yang Huan, who was far away in Southampton, was excited.

Before the game was over, he called Jean Luc Bissin the first time and asked Bissin to replace him, and praised the Monaco team of players.

"Keman is really a good coach!"

After Young Master Huan hung up the call to Bixin, he sighed with emotion.

When Monaco was about to change coaches, he himself hesitated for a long time. Faced with so many candidates, he was a bit difficult to start.

To be honest, even if he has watched the game for so many years and managed so many teams, in fact, he is still a layman on the real tactical level.

Because it is too professional and too complicated.

Even as a famous coach, such as Ferguson, Wenger and Mourinho, more can only be a glimpse of the leopard, no one dares to say that they fully understand football.

The world's top celebrities are like this, let alone a layman like Yang Huan.

"The head coaches of the Netherlands are not easy!"

Bielsa sitting next to Yang Huan also nodded in agreement.

Choosing Koman at the beginning, he also gave a lot of suggestions, and finally made Young Master Huan made up his mind.

And no one thought that Koeman would perform so well in his first season coaching Monaco.

If it’s in the Ligue 1 league, rushing to the leader, it is surprising, then the first round of the UEFA Champions League group stage is definitely a bonus question, because Koman’s European experience was originally a plus, but it has now been honored. It is even more satisfying.

Yang Huan said, "Through this selection of coaches, I have also learned a lot, especially seeing that Koeman is doing so well now, which proves that our original choice was right. correct."

What Shaoye Huan said is not only to enhance the authority and status of the technical director, but also includes a new project of the Miracle Football Group, which is the establishment of a technical and tactical advisory group.

The so-called technical and tactical advisory group, to put it bluntly, is to invite a group of people with rich teaching experience, rich tactical knowledge and tactical literacy outside of the data analysis and research system to form an advisory team to act as a think tank and make decisions for the group. Give some professional opinions.

For example, this time, when Koeman was invited, it was not just Jean Luc Bising who was the technical director making a decision. Yang Huan also asked the opinions of Bielsa, Van Gaal and Simeone. Benfica, Valencia and Feyenoord and other teams learned about Koman's coaching situation.

After a set of rigorous and detailed evaluations, Yang Huan finally decided to appoint Koeman as the head coach of Monaco.

And now that Koeman has performed so well in Monaco, it naturally proves that this set of pre-assessment is necessary, and it has indeed played a role.

"Marcelo, what I mentioned to you before, how are you thinking about it?" Yang Huan asked concerned.

If the Miracle Football Group wants to set up a technical and tactical advisory group, there must be a suitable person to lead this group.

Moreover, considering that everyone who can enter this group basically has a rich resume, even a glorious past, the person who serves as the group leader must be highly respected and talented.

Among the famous coaches that Yang Huan has known, Ferguson is unlikely to come to Miracle Football Group. Therefore, Bielsa is the most suitable.

This season is his fifth season in charge of Southampton. He has revealed a little bit of leave before, because he feels that he can no longer bring more changes to this team.

He does have his own pursuits and goals, but at least with the current level of technology, with the physical fitness and abilities of the current players, he is still a little far away from his goal.

This is not something that can be done overnight, it will take a long time.

This season, Southampton has won successively on all fronts. To some extent, it affirms Bielsa's achievements in the past few years, but also affirms the comprehensive strength of Southampton in all aspects.

But from another point of view, the Saints are too strong and lack challenging.

Without challenge, there will be no stimulation, and there will be no motivation to continue exploring.

Therefore, Bielsa gave birth to divorce after the Saints won the Premier League and the Champions League, but after Yang Huan's retention, he continued to stay with the team this season.

What Yang Huan meant was that he could leave the Saints and be transferred to the head of the miracle football group technical and tactical advisory team, who was solely responsible for this department.

"Marcelo, we have been working together for five years now, and you know how I am. The things I promised will definitely be fulfilled. I believe that after assuming this position, your position seems to have turned behind the scenes, but it is practical. However, it allows you to focus more on the research of tactics and football."

The technical and tactical advisory team, in addition to making suggestions for decision-making when selecting coaches and players, and giving professional advice on team formation, also has an important mission to keep abreast of the trends and trends of football techniques and tactics. .

The technical and tactical development of professional football in Europe is really changing with each passing day, changing all the time, and they are mutually reinforcing.

Therefore, setting up an organization to specialize in this field can help Miracle Football Group keep abreast of the dynamics of professional football, whether it is in terms of team concept or player training, it will keep pace with the times.

Just like right now, Monaco's right back Fabinho, which is the focus of cultivation, is a strange flower.

First of all, as a full-back, he is very tall. Although he is flexible, he is not a right back like Danilo and Maicon, let alone an offensive full-back like Alves and Carvajal. .

In the past, it was hard to imagine a player like Fabinho as a right back.

Because, once you meet the opponent's fast, flexible, and one-to-one winger, it is simply a nightmare.

But now it's different.

With tactical innovation and evolution, professional football has special needs for a tall full-back like Fabinho.

So, Manchester City is paying attention, Manchester United is paying attention, and even Arsenal and Bayern Munich are paying attention to him.

Of course, for the time being, it's just attention.

But isn't this already very telling?

In Yang Huan's view, youth training and player training are the manufacturing industry in the entire professional football industry chain.

Well, since it's a manufacturing industry, you have to know at least, what kind of products you want to manufacture and what kind of customer groups you want to cater to, you have to know in mind, right?

Oh, is it just casual, with a black eye, then what else is there to play?

Imagine that in the Premier League where the mainland style is now predominant, you can train a traditional British midfielder. Who wants it?

No need at all!

So In Yang Huan's view, the technical and tactical advisory team has a great effect, and it takes a great man like Bielsa to sit down and be at ease.

But, are the Argentine lunatics willing to leave the coaching front early?

Yang Huan tried to persuade him, but Bielsa remained silent.

It can be seen that he is considering, but there is no answer for the time being.

"Marcelo, if you think about it, don't worry, I will wait for your answer." Yang Huan said with a smile.

Bielsa nodded, but still did not speak.

Because he doesn't talk much at first.

After Young Master Huan walked out of the office, he looked at the bright sunshine outside and exhaled heavily.

It seems that we have to start looking for and think about the head coach of Southampton.
