The weather in Madrid began to change, and Gao Shen sneezed several times in the morning, which made him feel very strange.
Could it be that someone was scolding him in the dark and pitiful?
With such a harmless character, who did he offend?
Immediately after the recovery training in the morning, Baptista, Robinho and Cicinho came to see him together.
Gao Shen talked to them in the head coach's office.
The three of them obviously listened to what Goshen Toronaldo conveyed, and they all wanted to reconcile with Goshen.
The problems between Baptista and Cicinho are relatively easy to solve, because these two players are fairly well-behaved and their characteristics are there. They are also willing to cooperate with advanced tactics. They just need to figure out how to use them.
Robinho will be in trouble.
The ability of the Brazilian genius is indeed very strong, with outstanding advantages, but also obvious shortcomings.
Gao Shen hopes that he can reduce some unnecessary possession of the ball, but this requires him to distinguish which ones are necessary and which ones are unnecessary.
Frankly speaking, this is still difficult for Robinho.
However, Gao Shen thought of a good plan.
He saw in the tactical library the way Ferguson was training Cristiano Ronaldo.
When the Portuguese first arrived at Manchester United, they also played very rough, garish, and very sticky.
Everyone knows that Manchester United's style of play has always been concise and direct.
So, Ferguson asked Gary Neville and other defenders to play hard against Ronaldinho during team training.
As long as you don't get hurt, go straight to death!
Humans are all about seeking advantages and avoiding disadvantages.
It was in this atmosphere that Ronaldinho changed his playing style slowly, bit by bit.
Of course, this will take a while.
Gao Shen didn't think about the long term for the time being, he just wanted Robinho to obey his arrangement and complete the task he gave.
This conversation took a full hour. Gao Shen not only put forward his ideas and requirements openly and honestly, but also comforted the three Brazilian players very well, saying that he would definitely arrange playing time for them as appropriate.
But the game against Juventus next Wednesday will not be available.
Gao Shen's attention to this game has been planned as early as the first round.
But Gao Shen promised that as long as they perform well in training, they will definitely have their place in the league next weekend.
……
After sending three Brazilian players away, Gao Shen was relieved.
From the time he took over Real Madrid to the present, it took a little more than a month for him to be considered to have truly settled into Real Madrid's dressing room.
The interests of all parties are intertwined, various demands, and the complicated situation is a huge challenge to the coach.
As Raul said, Real Madrid's coach is both important and unimportant.
Why is it not important?
Because Real Madrid are all the top players in the world, these players can come to Real Madrid, they are all top-notch, there is no problem in all aspects of ability, they don't need a head coach, they all know how to play on the court and how to cooperate.
But Real Madrid's head coach is crucial.
Real Madrid's players have excellent personal abilities. Except for a coach who has transformed into a top superstar like Zidane in the future, it is estimated that no one can teach them how to play and play.
However, they are also a group of ordinary people, and they are also a group of ordinary people with a low education level. If some people's cultural classes are thrown into China, it is estimated that they may not be able to even graduate from primary school. This is because they have been playing football since childhood. .
This group of ordinary people also have to live, and have their own joys, sorrows, sorrows, and worries, as well as their own thoughts.
They will be too stressed to sleep before important games; they will be discouraged because they broke up with their girlfriends; they may even be sad because their children fail an exam...
At this time, they need someone they are convinced to stand up and bring them back on the right track.
This is true for the individual, but also for the team.
And the head coach is the one who does everything in his power to keep the players and the team on track.
So isn't there something to say?
Small teams pay more attention to the coaching ability of the head coach, while giant teams pay more attention to the management ability of the head coach.
The most famous such as Chilean engineer Pellegrini, in terms of coaching ability and technical and tactical literacy, a head coach who can bring the yellow submarine to the semi-finals of the Champions League, can he be bad?
But when he arrived at Real Madrid, the same thing he did at Villarreal wouldn't work.
Gao Shen has been in charge of coaching for more than a month, every day is like walking on thin ice, every thing he does is weighed before and after, and he has spent a lot of effort, and finally the locker room is settled.
He can now say aloud, except for Carlos, he has won the support and support of the locker room!
But he also knows that all of this is based on achievements. If he cannot lead the team to win, then all this will slowly leave him.
……
Before the afternoon training session, Real Madrid held a summary meeting, mainly to analyze and summarize the battle of Camp Nou.
Gao Shen pointed out two points that he felt the team did not do well enough, one was the overall pressure in the midfield and the frontcourt, and the other was the defensive movement in the back line.
The first one appeared several times in the game, but this is related to the team's ability to execute advanced tactics. After all, it is not particularly skilled and tacit, which requires long-term repeated drills and indoctrination.
But the second problem is very serious, the most typical is Eto'o's anti-offside.
Gao Shen didn't mean to blame Elgra, but this negative textbook must be analyzed and analyzed, because he would never allow such mistakes to occur again.
Real Madrid can't be so lucky every time.
The coaching team also arranged training programs specifically for the two questions raised by Gao Shen in the afternoon training class.
The overall pressure in the midfield and frontcourt is training with Sacchi's shadow.
Lippi once questioned Sacchi's idea of zone defense, believing that it is not revolutionary, but an innovation in training methods.
The training method mentioned here actually includes shadow training.
The so-called shadow training is actually to place flagpoles at different positions on the training ground, with flags of different colors hanging on them to distinguish them. After the players participating in the training are set up in formation, the coaches will issue instructions to tell them where the ball is. , allowing the players to move in an overall formation.
There is no ball, no opponent, and even the target is constantly changing. Players must constantly change direction and target according to the coach's instructions, but keep the overall formation and player role switching as fast as possible.
In training, there are four reference objects for players: "ball", space, opponents in the illusion, and surrounding teammates.
This training is actually used by many teams, and it is very effective for training the overall movement and pressing of the team.
As for the second question, the coaching staff arranged a five-on-four training.
Four defensive players are lined up at the front of the penalty area. Of the five offensive players, a center is cruising around the defending players, while the other four players are passing and pulling back and forth in front of the defense line. When the center sees the opportunity, he will move forward decisively. Insert behind.
This is actually the scene of anti-offside on the simulated court.
Look, in fact, tactics are really not as complicated and high-level as the fans imagined.
It's really simple, but it's very fine-grained.
……
During the whole training process, Gao Shen did not participate in the whole process, and was presided over by Maqueda and Buenaventura.
The training attitude of Real Madrid players is quite good, and the players are also very hardworking and cooperative, resulting in a very good training effect, but how much can be harvested depends on the competition to test.
At the end of training, club president Martin came.
He did not come alone. He also brought many high-level executives, directors and media reporters, including the lawyer named Ramon Calderon on the board of directors.
Today, he is very inconspicuous, and he is trying to build a sense of existence, but who would have thought that in his deep memory, he suddenly broke out in the presidential election this summer and killed Martin.
How Calderon did it is unknown.
More importantly, the arrival of Gao Shen has changed history. Can he defeat Martin and be elected as before?
At the first meeting, Calderon gave Gao a deep impression of being full of friendliness. After all, he was a lawyer and was good at dealing with people.
But this is also a guy who hides a knife in his smile.
The main purpose of Martin's trip was to gain a sense of presence and to gain momentum after the team beat Barcelona.
Gao Shen took a moment and pulled him aside, talking about what Butragueno wanted to arrange for him to have dinner with Florentino.
Martin didn't know anything about this, and when he heard it, he was a little surprised, but Gao Shen put on an expression like "Chairman, I am your confidant" throughout the whole process, making Martin believe that as long as he opened his mouth, Gao Shen refused immediately, an attitude that made the Real Madrid president very satisfied.
"Just having a meal, it shouldn't be a big deal." Martin pretended to smile generously, but quickly changed the conversation, "Gao, I'm very optimistic about you, if you encounter any difficulties in the process of coaching , even if you tell me, I will help you solve it I am delighted to hear it, sure enough.
Having dinner with Florentino is really not a big deal, but he took the initiative to tell Martin about it, in fact, he wanted to imply that the president of Real Madrid, your predecessor seemed to take me seriously, should you express it?
"Chairman, when you say it, I really encountered something." Gao Shen pretended to be difficult.
Martin was stunned for a moment, and he said so casually, but he didn't expect that Gao Shenzhen would hit the snake and follow the stick.
No way, ask, what's the matter?
Gao Shen immediately said that he wanted to renew the contracts of several young players such as Ramos. He described these players as Real Madrid's future humerus, how important it is, or the club's own youth training. The team is loyal and should renew the contract as soon as possible.
Martin also breathed a sigh of relief. He thought it was a big deal. Isn't it just a few young players renewing contracts?
That's right!
"You can let go of this matter. I will say hello to the Bernabeu, and just let me know after the decision is made."
Gao Shen was overjoyed.
Renewing the contracts of several players such as Ramos is a way to reward young players and boost the morale of the team. After the contract is renewed, should these young players support him even more?
More importantly, Gao Shen has the right to decide who to renew the contract and who not to.
What is the most important thing for a manager?
that power.
What power?
Personnel and Finance.
Gao Shen can't decide the player's transfer now, but he can decide whether to give a chance to play or not, and now, he can decide who to give a salary increase.
This is the purpose of Gao Shen discussing this matter with Martin.
As for whether or not to eat with Florentino, does it matter?
