Chapter 254： champion collector

it's finally over!

Stefan Lichtsteiner dragged his weak legs and walked out of Fort Volturno. Well, it should now be called the Kesan Lemei Training Center, because not long ago, this game manufacturer from Japan announced that it had sponsored Naples. The naming rights of the training center.

Not only that, but head coach Gao Shen also appeared on the cover of the latest live football.

This should be the first head coach to appear on the cover of live football, right?

Anyway, the head coach is very happy. He gave all the new players in the team a game console and a game CD, saying that they are welcome to challenge online at any time, and the winner will also receive a mysterious prize.

According to Captain Montevino, the team will also engage in internal leagues, specifically to play football games.

This was unheard of before.

Don't all teams and head coaches in the world regard the game as a beast?

Lichtsteiner has always been a good boy in his duty, and he hasn't played games much, but when he heard the heated discussions among his teammates in the locker room, he couldn't help itching.

It seems that playing games did not affect their competition and training, but made them relax.

Even, sometimes they PK directly in the training base.

In the words of the head coach, everything is about a degree.

The Chinese say that there is a degree of relaxation.

Lichtsteiner didn't understand it, but he seemed very powerful.

"Is the devil training not over yet?

On the way home, the elder brother Marko Lich Steiner frowned and asked that it had been more than half a month, and the younger brother always came home softly every day, obviously overtraining.

Not only his elder brother, but also his parents were worried, for fear that he would be injured.

"Don't worry, brother, our coach said it's fine." Lichtsteiner comforted.

"What kind of coach is that of yours? What should I do if I get injured during training? Do other people do the same?"

"It's all like this, I said it's all right." Lichtsteiner was a little annoyed, he knew that his brother was doing it for his own good.

But sometimes it is too much. "Our coach went to UEFA to give lectures, and now he is a coach training teacher in Spain."

"I looked at the club's statistics. Last season, we were not only Serie B, but also the team with the most running distances in the whole of Italy. They are among the best in European football. All these must be based on excellent physical fitness."

Marco also heard his brother's impatience, and he stopped, "I also care about you, just for fear of you getting hurt."

After a pause, he couldn't help but remind again, "You are new here, and now is the critical moment to grab the main position. If you are injured at this time, the situation is not very good, you know?"

"I know, I know." Lichtsteiner waved his hand, "Our boss has told me many times,

He said, I am the first choice of right back in his mind, let me not be under pressure or burden, play stably and work hard to improve. "

"Does he really say that?" Marco was amused. "He's still very discerning."

Lichtsteiner's original impatience disappeared when he saw his brother's smile.

"Don't worry, brother, our coaches and team doctors are still nervous. We have to conduct physical examinations every day. Every training session is filmed by cameras, and we are analyzing, you can see..."

With that said, Lichtsteiner took out an analysis report that had just been handed to him, "This is the report given by the analysis department, which analyzes our training very clearly, and points out various deficiencies, including physical Questions like running stats and performance activity.”

"The coaching staff has been staring at us, don't worry about it."

It's not that Marco has never seen the world, but when he heard his brother's words, he was still a little confused, but he felt like he was really powerful. "You guys don't seem to have seen other teams before?"

"That is, the high-tech equipment imported from the United States, and the sports vest. I heard that there are sensors inside."

After a pause, Lichtsteiner smiled convincingly: "Although it's only been more than half a month, I feel that our team is very strong, much stronger than Lille, and our team. Boss, it's totally different from any manager I've ever met before."

"Why is it different?"

"It's hard to say, he likes to find someone to chat with, let's chat with him, he always seems to be able to tell you what's on your mind, I think he knows me very well and trusts me very much!

"Then did he tell anyone these words?" Marko asked.

Lichtsteiner shook his head, "I don't know, probably not. Anyway, I think he just trusts me. He said, I'm the most valuable player he has signed since he was coaching."

In the end, the young Swiss players are full of glory.

"Then you have to show your best performance." Marco also encouraged.

He was a few years older, and he couldn't help but have more thoughts in his heart. How could he feel that his stupid brother seemed to be fooled?

"Don't worry, the warm-up match is about to start, I have to work harder!"

……

According to rumors, after the launch of Apollo 11 in the United States, most of the time it was out of the established orbit, and it could only **** its way forward through constant revisions, but it still successfully landed on the moon in the end.

Gao Shen feels that coaching a team is generally the same.

As a head coach, in fact, he has no way of predicting what will happen in the whole process, what accidents will happen, it may be caused by players, it may be caused by opponents, it may be the schedule or other factors.

Too many accidents will affect the team.

As a head coach, he can only make constant revisions and adjustments to make the team move towards the set goal. Almost all head coaches do the same as a pre-season warm-up. Warm-up match.

He is more out of purpose, to arrange various opponents to test and stimulate the team.

Last season, when the team reorganized the team, Gaoshen arranged a large number of warm-up games with low difficulty to help the team run in and sculpt the team's technical and tactical skills, which later proved to be very effective.

This season, Gao Shen has also arranged a full seven warm-up games. Without exception, the opponents are all teams from the lower leagues in the surrounding area, and there is not even a team in Serie A or other top leagues.

Under such an arrangement, the intensity of the warm-up game is indeed not large, but it can better run the team in, find out the problems of the team, and gradually help the team to build confidence by abusing vegetables.

Yes, confidence is very important for Napoli, who will play in Serie A in the new season.

The warm-up matches were arranged very tightly, and Gao Shen adjusted the team in almost every game.

But it has to be said that after more than half a month of special training and the extensive reorganization of the team, it is basically unrealistic for Naples to regain the state of last season at once.

This also led to Napoli's unsatisfactory performance in the warm-up match, both good and bad.

When I played well, I was crazy about the vegetables, and it was no problem to score four or five goals, but when I played badly, I was very embarrassed.

Gao Shen didn't care either. Anyway, for him, it was just military training. He could play whatever he wanted.

But there is one thing that must be done, that is, after each game, Naples will analyze and summarize the problems exposed in the game, and the team will pay attention to them immediately and solve them immediately.

With the start of the warm-up match, Naples' training has changed from three training sessions a day to two training sessions a day, and the intensity has also declined. The players are constantly adjusting and recovering, and their state and performance are constantly improving.

These are all seen by the coaching staff, but in the warm-up match, because Gao Shen still played a lot, his performance was not ideal.

For example, in a game against a third-tier league team, Gao Shen directly ranked four, three, three, Thiago Mota in the midfield, and Parejo and Pastore in front.

And Napoli also played uncharacteristically in the game to pass and control the ball. They were adjusting throughout the first half, looking for a rhythm, and trying to control the ball. As a result, they were attacked by the opponent in the second half and scored a goal.

After that, Naples continued to adjust and control the ball. The whole game was seriously out of shape and the rhythm was a mess.

The possession rate is quite high, nearly 80%. The problem is that the number of threatening shots is very low.

After this game, the outside media were quite dissatisfied with Naples' performance, thinking that such a performance could challenge the Serie A championship. How much contempt for Serie A?

However, Gao Shen was still satisfied with these players and believed that the team played well.

"They got close to 80% of the ball possession rate, which is an amazing result!"

While the warm-up performance in Naples was mixed, the schedule for the Coppa Italia came out.

The schedule at the beginning of the season is still a double match a week. UU Reading will play two rounds of Coppa Italia first, then the first round of Serie A, then the third round of Coppa Italia, and then the second round of Serie A, followed by the national team in September. game day.

In other words, in just half a month or so, five games will be played.

More importantly, this Coppa Italia system is very unfair to Naples, but it has nothing to do with the Italian Football Association, which makes Gao Shen feel helpless.

After drawing lots, Naples faced Cesena from Serie B in the first round of the Coppa Italia.

This is the old rival of last season.

The head coach Castori is also a veteran. He is 53 years old this year. He has coached for 30 years and has always been in the lower leagues, but he has a very impressive achievement.

That is, he has won the championship of all Italian leagues except Serie A.

This is unique in Italian football!

No one has ever achieved such an achievement.

A proper champion collector!

Another notable feature of the coach from central Italy is his fiery temper.

As early as last season, the head coach who claims to be the most grassroots in Italy and takes Italian defensive football as his philosophy,

I was very unhappy with the Italian football subversive Gao Shen.

Unexpectedly, the two sides met again.

As soon as the Italian Cup schedule came out, Castori said excitedly that Cesena would definitely show his best side at the Sao Paulo Stadium and show the best Italian defensive art.

"We want to keep Naples clean!"
