Two Hundred and Thirty-Five Work Hard, I Am Optimistic About You!

As soon as the season ended, Fort Volturno suddenly became empty.

In the morning, the team was officially disbanded, everyone left, only Gao Shen and the coaching staff remained in the team.

Players can have a holiday, but they still have a lot of things to do, such as preparing for the new season.

Fort Volturno needs to be remodeled, some training equipment needs to be added, and the gym also needs to be further upgraded. Lucas's data analysis team is currently recruiting intensively, and will expand to three people in the future.

Needed a separate office and needed some brand new equipment.

As the chief assistant coach, Carlo also needs to give feedback to the management based on the situation in the past season to see what is not doing well enough and needs to be reformed and improved during the suspension period.

All of these must be completed within the two months of the suspension, and the time is very tight.

On the contrary, Gao Shen became the most relaxed person.

He just needs to be in charge of controlling the overall situation and signing, that's all.

++

This was the first time he had strolled leisurely through the training center in Fort Volturno.

Since coaching Naples, he has hardly had a moment of leisure, he is busy every day, constantly busy.

Only now has he had the chance to stop and take a good look around the training center and at the little mound next to the training pitch, a favorite spot for fans to stand while watching club training.

He just walked up the knoll, standing tall, as if he could still see the players running on the training ground Another season is over!

Reflecting deeply on the past season, the harvest is really very rich.

This is the first full season of his coaching career, which can be described as ups and downs.

Since the Coppa Italia at the beginning of the season, he has encountered all kinds of opponents Ascoli, Parma, Juventus, Roma, Inter Milan non-stop...

Gao Shen didn't pay much attention to the Serie B team from the beginning, and the facts have proved that it is difficult for the Serie B team to pose a threat to Gao Shen's team.

If it weren't for playing too much after winning the championship early, if it wasn't for being distracted by the Coppa Italia, Gao Shen would even be confident of remaining unbeaten throughout the season, which shows Naples' strength in Serie B.

Even Juventus, it is difficult to shake Naples under Gao Shen's coaching.

At least, this level of confidence is still deep.

But he also suffered the worst loss of his career.

Lost to Inter Milan zero to three!

From the perspective of performance alone, Gao Shen's first full season was brilliant. As a newly promoted team, he won the Serie B championship and reached the semi-finals of the Coppa Italia. Such a report card is quite impressive.

More importantly, Cavani is the top scorer in Serie B, three goals more than Juventus's Trezeguet. Players such as Gervinho, Pellet, Hamsik and Sanchez all scored less. few.

Naples is the team with the strongest attacking firepower and the strongest defense in Serie B, playing the best offensive football.

Such a report card is amazing enough!

If you don't lose to Inter Milan.

Gao Shen always remembers!

"Last year, I visited Bielsa in the suburbs of Rosario, Argentina."

Guardiola's voice came from behind, he was slowly walking up the small hill, walking towards Gaoshen.

A friend of mine, as well as Batistuta, highly recommended me to meet him. "

Gao Shen nodded, "When I went to Argentina last time, I also visited him, but he was not at home."

"I was lucky that he was there." Guardiola smiled.

Gao Shenmoran, this is indeed a kind of luck.

In other words, fate.

"In his house, we analyze all kinds of football tactics in the living room, using people as centre-forwards, chairs as defenders, benches as midfielders, and all kinds of other furniture in the living room. Let's use it, we are discussing tactics."

From Guardiola's words, Gao Shen heard some memories.

As you can imagine, it will be a very special memory.

"We talked for ten hours and then Bielsa asked me a question as I was leaving."

Gao Shen looked at Guardiola, but didn't speak, waiting for Guardiola to continue.

"He said, as a professional player, you know everything about professional football, you know all kinds of dirty deals in this circle, you know how dishonest people are in this circle, and you know that those who use football in this circle The fame thing is so rubbish, why are you so eager to coach a team?"

After a pause, Guardiola looked at Gao Shen and smiled slightly: "I replied to him that I like this kind of passion!"

"Professional football has too much unbearable, even too much filth and filth. It has now become a fame and fortune machine, but it is still full of exciting blood, which makes me feel very yearning."

Gao Shen couldn't help nodding, this is the truth.

What the fans see is always just the glamor on the surface, but behind this glamorous layer,

There are countless filth and filth hidden, all kinds of power struggles and intrigues.

But all of these cannot conceal the passion on the court.

That's why professional football is so crazy, so fascinating.

"In the past few months with you, I have really learned a lot. I think you are completely different from other head coaches. You dare to think, speak, and do. Sometimes I even think, how can you Why are you so sure you're right?"

When Guardiola said this, he shook his head and smiled: "But you are right every time."

Gao Shen also smiled, but he couldn't say that he had seen all this happen with his own eyes, so he was sure.

"Beating Juventus, killing Roma, and Parma, and Serie B, and others..."

Guardiola is also working hard to search for the memories of the past few months. Gao Shen is completely different from his personality, but in Gao Shen, he sees many qualities that attract him.

"I see blood from you, Naples, and Naples players!"

Gao Shen understands that this is Guardiola's most obsessed and favorite football.

He can also understand why Guardiola in the current world would leave angrily after seeing the empty and boring football in the late stage of the Dream Team 3, where the ball is controlled for the sake of possession.

Gao Shen actually likes this kind of football, but he is a little different from Guardiola in that he is not young.

At least, he would never do something that would suddenly change the team's style of play on the eve of the Champions League final.

Unless, he is sure enough to win by surprise.

Guardiola has an offer.

An invitation that made him hesitate.

From Barcelona, ​​I hope he goes back to coach the Barcelona second team.

A team struggling in the fourth tier.

This is also a feature of the Spanish league. The second team can participate in the professional league, so Real Madrid's second team Castilla can play in the second division and can also be relegated, but they cannot be at the same level as the first team.

After Barcelona trained a group of players such as Harvey and Puyol, the results of the second team were terrible.

If Gao Shen remembers correctly, Guardiola should have offered to coach after seeing the crisis in the Barcelona second team in his previous life, but now it is Barcelona who asked him if he would like to go back.

"Decided?" Gao Shen asked with a smile.

Guardiola nodded, "You know, in fact, I have already promised you that I will play with you in the new season of Serie A, but I have no way to refuse the invitation from Barcelona. They need me to go back."

Deep understanding.

"I am really looking forward to it, and I really hope that I can fight side by side with you, and I can watch you lead Naples to the Serie A, completely turning them upside down, and by the way, report that 0-3 at the San Siro hatred."

"I am also looking forward to seeing you and Naples standing on the top of the Serie A championship, but..."

Guardiola's eyes showed reluctance and regret.

"I have to go back!"

It sounds like a wanderer who wants to go home after wandering outside for many years.

Such a reason, such a situation, how to refuse? How to keep it?

"You have to think clearly, you go back to Barcelona, ​​I believe, with your ability, the second team of Barcelona can't keep you,

You must have the opportunity to be alone, when the time comes, we will be opponents. "Gao Shen said threateningly.

"Then, you're going to do everything you can, just like Spalletti or other managers, against me?" Guardiola couldn't help laughing.

"Of course!" Gao Shen nodded confidently, "I will tell the whole world that you have been my assistant, and I know you too well, so I have no problem defeating you at all, and there are other things..."

Guardiola laughed, greatly diluting the sentimentality of separation.

"I will also tell everyone that I have been Gao Shen's assistant, and I have learned a lot from Gao Shen. I don't know you very well, but I will try my best to beat you. This is what I love about you. tribute!"

Guardiola said with a serious face.

"Me too! We really met. Don't hold back either of us. If you win the game, treat each other to a good meal." Gao Shen also laughed and stretched out his hand.

"It's a deal!" Guardiola firmly held Gao Shen's hand, "I'm confident, it must be my treat."

"Fart you! With your three-legged cat kung fu, you can still beat me?" Gao Shen pulled hard and gave Guardiola a big hug, and so did Guardiola.

Although they got along for just a few months, the two studied and discussed football every day, and forged a very deep friendship with each other.

Things in the world are so strange.

Some people have been together for most of their lives, but they are still just like passers-by; but some people, after a short time together, have a heart-to-heart relationship with each other.

Gao Shen is quite fortunate that he and Guardiola are the latter.

"Go to Barcelona, ​​work hard, I am optimistic about you!" Gao Shen encouraged.

"You too, win the Serie A championship in the new season, and I will cheer for you in Barcelona!" Guardiola clenched his fists.

Gao Shen patted him on the shoulder, indicating that he had received it.

People come and go, this is actually normal, and he has long been bearish.

It's just that he doesn't know that his appearance is good for Guardiola? or bad?
