Chapter 712 Master Bei’s First Training Class

The 2010 World Cup is finally over. Spain, the king of the warm-up matches, defeated the uncrowned king Netherlands to win the championship. They are also the eighth country to win the World Cup.

The one who beat the Netherlands was the young Iniesta, who didn't like and wasn't very good at shooting. Sneijder, who had been showing great power all the way, finally failed to resist his fate. The hat of the uncrowned king could only continue to be worn on the head of the Netherlands.

On the day after the World Cup, Inter Milan began its first training session of the summer. This also means that Inter Milan has officially entered the Benitez era from the Mourinho era.

Since many of Inter Milan's World Cup internationals are still on vacation, the players in Inter Milan's training camp are mainly those who have no World Cup tasks and some players who are on loan. These include newly signed Luca Castellachi, Coutinho and Obi.

Brazilian new star Coutinho was bought by Inter Milan from Vasco da Gama for 3.8 million euros two years ago. However, because the Brazilian Football Association stipulates that players under the age of 18 cannot transfer abroad (except Portugal), so Felipe ?Coutinho will continue to play for Vasco da Gama on loan for two seasons before coming to Inter Milan this year.

Although the World Cup feast made Inter Milan fans mouth-watering, on the day of Inter Milan's training camp, more than 2,000 Inter Milan fans came to the Pinetina training base to watch.

The weather in Milan in July was already very hot, but Benitez was still wearing a neat suit and a blue-black tie, waiting at the Pinetina training base.

The first to come to the court were captain Zanetti and three vice-captains Materazzi, Gao Xiaodong and Cordoba.

Benitez did not wait for the captains to come over to greet him, but took the initiative to shake hands with the captains.

Zanetti, Gao Xiaodong and others were a little moved. It was rumored that Benitez was a very unkind coach. Now it seems that the rumors are not all correct.

Unexpectedly, after shaking hands and saying hello, Benitez pointed to the huge photo of Mourinho holding the trophy hanging on the barbed wire and said: "Let's take down that photo to affect the sight of the fans outside."

Zanetti, Materazzi, Gao Xiaodong, and Cordoba looked at each other in confusion, because Benitez's excuse was too lame. It would be better to just say that I didn't like the photo of Mourinho holding the trophy.

However, except for Materazzi, who is more upright, the other three captains are all good people. They said nothing and followed Benitez to pick up photos. Although Materazzi is upright, he is not stupid. He is so old. If I want to stay at Inter Milan, I need the coach’s care, so I didn’t object. I was stunned for a moment, and then went over to help pick out the photos.

Taking off the photo, Benitez looked much more relaxed. While taking training equipment with the four captains, he talked with them about his coaching philosophy.

"I am different from Mourinho. I hope we can play better and be a team that presses higher and controls the ball more. I have been connected with football all my life. When I was a physical education teacher at university, I have indeed taught football theory, so it is okay to say that I am a teacher. I am committed to imparting my football philosophy and striving to optimize the team. I do not just tell the players to do this or that, but to communicate at a deeper level and use practical models. Ben lets the players know how to deal with each situation. My team focuses on itself and thinks more about how to improve its own quality. When we improve, our opponents will naturally become smaller. Of course, a certain person in a game time period, and does not exclude adjusting oneself according to the opponent."

"Italians and Spaniards are alike. They stubbornly love their own traditions and feel that their own ideas and rules of doing things cannot be changed. My point of view is: retain their advantages such as creativity and intuition before others, improve their previous shortcomings, and learn Make long-term plans and work down-to-earth. This is what I did when I coached Liverpool, blending Spanish skills and imaginative thinking with British rigor and professionalism. The essential difference between Italian players and English players lies in their minds and cultural roots. The English value the work process. ,

The results will come naturally; Italians only value results and do it backwards, so they lag behind..."

Benitez talked eloquently, mainly talking about two points. First, he and Mourinho have different coaching styles and philosophies; second, Italian football has fallen behind, and English and Spanish football are the trend of modern football.

For the four captains of Inter Milan who have won the Triple Crown, they must be very unhappy and unconvinced by such a statement. The lagging behind won the Triple Crown, while the advanced Premier League won nothing. Such a statement is really unsatisfactory. Convinced.

The five people chatted for almost ten minutes. Benitez was very satisfied. He thought he had achieved the purpose of communicating and winning the support of the captains. But in fact, only Benitez was satisfied. All four Zanetti captains were not satisfied. Satisfied, they think Benitez is too arrogant and looks down on Serie A.

At half past nine, most of the players arrived one after another. Only Balotelli had not arrived yet. Benitez looked at his watch and said, "Since Balotelli hasn't arrived, we don't have to wait for him. Ten minutes." Then we started training, now everyone gets to know each other first, and the newcomers introduce themselves.”

The new players were a little reserved when introducing themselves, but after the introduction, the young man named Coutinho was very flexible and had a high emotional intelligence. He took the initiative to come over and say hello to the big brothers. Under his leadership, the new players all came over to say hello to the big brothers. The brothers expressed their respect and admiration, and the atmosphere among the players was obviously much more lively.

Most of the main players are not here, so tactical training is definitely not possible. It is mainly physical training.

After the training started, Balotelli lazily came to the training ground. Benitez knew that Balotelli was ready to transfer, so he did not criticize him and directly asked Balotelli to join the team. train.

Obviously one day cannot be just about physical training. In the afternoon, when Moratti and Inter Milan executives came to watch, Inter Milan held a group match. Benitez deliberately let young people and old players compete separately. Obviously, the old players are very experienced. , but his running ability was average, and he was quickly outshone by young people.

Among the young players, the Brazilian boy Coutinho performed particularly well. He handled the ball very well. Every time he got the ball, he could break through the defense of two or three players. At first, the senior players of Inter Milan could not bear to mark him. , after Coutinho scored two goals and assisted once, Gao Xiaodong took the initiative to take on the task of defending Coutinho, which suppressed Coutinho's momentum.

Benitez obviously did not expect Coutinho to be so skilled. After the training, he was full of praise for Coutinho and ensured that if he trained well, he would have a place in the first team.

Moratti was also moved by Coutinho. Originally, he had the idea of ​​keeping Balotelli. Seeing Coutinho's outstanding performance, he decided to let Balotelli, the troublemaker, go.

After the training, in response to Balotelli's lateness, Benitez formulated detailed team rules for the team. This is the 12 Inter Milan behavioral rules that Materazzi later called the primary school student code.

Benitez did not do well in his first show. His behavior of taking down Mourinho's photo made the old players feel a little uncomfortable. They felt that Benitez's mind seemed not very broad and it might not be easy to get along with him in the future. .

This incident alone did not have much impact on Benitez. After all, the new coach wanted to eliminate the imprint of the old coach. But then when Inter Milan wanted to buy Liverpool midfielder Mascherano, Liverpool asked Inter Milan to use a humiliation. Biasso came in exchange, and Benitez agreed, which angered Inter Milan's Argentine gang.

Although Mascherano is also an Argentine, he, Zanetti and Cambiaso are not in the same gang. The reason why Zanetti and Cambiaso are absent from this World Cup is because of Mascherano, The Argentine clique headed by Messi excludes Zanetti and his group.

Therefore, Benitez wants to replace Mascherano with Cambiaso, which is equivalent to weakening the "Zanetti Gang". Of course Inter Milan's Argentinian gang would not agree.

Zanetti, who has always been low-key and humble, was the first to object, "Mascherano is a smart player. He has strong running ability and can grab a lot of balls in every game. Moreover, he is a very good team player." players.”

Zanetti first praised Mascherano, and then changed the topic: "It is of course very important to introduce players like him, there is no doubt about it. However, we must not discuss using Cambiaso as a bargaining chip! Without Cambiasso, there would be no Inter Milan!"

Benitez and Mourinho are in different situations. Mourinho is facing Inter Milan, which has achieved nothing in the Champions League. Benitez is facing a group of Triple Crown winners. When they first arrived, Benitez has no strength. To contend with the most powerful Argentinian gang, they had no choice but to publicly state that Cambiaso was an important member of Inter Milan and that he and Mascherano could coexist.

Although Benitez temporarily compromised with the Argentine Gang, he and the Argentine Gang have since formed a knot, so that they became incompatible later.
