Two Hundred and Fifty-Four Champion Collectors

it is finally over!

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

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

This should be the first head coach to appear on the cover of Pro Evolution Football, right?

Anyway, the head coach was very happy. He gave all the new players in the team a game console and a game disc, saying that they were welcome to challenge online at any time, and those who won would get a mysterious prize.

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

This was unheard of before.

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

Lichtsteiner has always been an obedient boy who has never played games, but when he heard the heated discussions among his teammates in the locker room, he couldn't help itching his hands.

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

Even, sometimes they directly PK up 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 felt very powerful.

"Is the devil training not over yet?

On the way home, brother Mark Lichtsteiner asked with a frown that it had been more than half a month, and his younger brother looked limp every day when he came home, which was obviously over-trained.

Not only him, the elder brother, but even the parents at home were worried, for fear that he would get hurt.

"Don't worry, bro, our coach said it's fine." Lichtsteiner reassured.

"What kind of coach is that of yours? What if you get injured during training? Is it the same for everyone else?"

"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 really too much control, "Our coach went to UEFA to give lectures, and now he is still a Spanish coach training teacher."

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

Marco could also hear his younger brother's impatience, and it was enough, "I also care about you, just because I'm afraid you will get hurt."

After a pause, he couldn't help reminding, "You are new here, and now is the critical moment to grab the main position. If you get injured at this time, the situation will not be 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 for right back in his mind, let me not have pressure, don't have a burden, play steadily, and work hard to improve. "

"He really said that?" Marco laughed, "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 has a camera filming and analyzing. Take a look..."

As he spoke, Lichtsteiner took out an analysis report that had just been sent out, "This is the report given by the analysis department, which clearly analyzed our training and pointed out various deficiencies, including physical problems. Questions like running stats and performance activity levels and things like that.”

"The coaching staff has been watching us,

Don't worry about it. "

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

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

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

"Why is it different?"

"It's hard to say, he likes to chat with people, chat with him, he seems to always say what's on your mind, I think he understands me very well and trusts me!

"Did he tell others about these things?" Marco asked.

Lichtsteiner shook his head, "I don't know, probably not. Anyway, I think he just trusts me. He said that I am the most expensive player he has signed since he coached."

When it comes to the end, the young Swiss teenagers are full of glory.

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

He was a few years older, so he couldn't help but have more thoughts in his heart. Why did he feel that his silly 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 off the established orbit. It could only go through constant revisions and groping forward, but it still successfully landed on the moon in the end.

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

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

Too many accidents will affect the team.

As the head coach, he can only make the team move towards the established goal through constant revision and adjustment. Almost all the head coaches do the same. As a warm-up before the season, Gao Shen actually doesn’t pay attention Warm-up match.

He is more purposeful to arrange various opponents to test and stimulate the team.

Last season, when the team was reorganized and created, Gao Shen arranged a large number of warm-up matches that were not difficult to help the team adjust and refine the team's skills and tactics. This later proved that the effect was indeed very good.

This season, Gao Shen has also arranged seven warm-up matches. Without exception, the opponents are all low-level league teams in the surrounding areas, and there are not even Serie A or other top league teams.

Under this arrangement, the intensity of the warm-up match is indeed not great, but it can better run the team, and at the same time find out the team's problems, and gradually help the team build confidence through abuse.

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

The warm-up match was very tightly arranged, and Gao Shen adjusted the team in different ways almost every game.

But I have to say that after more than half a month of special training by the devil and the extensive reorganization of the team, it is basically unrealistic for Naples to regain the state of last season all at once.

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

When he played well, he abused the food like crazy and scored four or five goals without any problem, but when he played badly, he was also very embarrassing.

Gao Shen didn't care, anyway, for him, it was just training soldiers, he could play however 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 status and performance are also improving.

All of these were noticed by the coaching staff, but in the warm-up match, because Gao Shen still played wildly, his performance was still not satisfactory.

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

And Naples also uncharacteristically played pass and possession in the game. They were adjusting throughout the first half, looking for rhythm, and adjusting the possession of 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 continue to control the ball. They were seriously out of shape throughout the game, and the rhythm was also a mess.

The ball possession rate is very high, nearly 80%. The problem is that the number of threatening shots is pitifully small.

After this game, the outside media were quite dissatisfied with Naples' performance, thinking that such a performance could win the Serie A championship. How much do they look down on Serie A?

However, Gao Shen is still satisfied with these players and thinks the team is playing well.

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

While Naples had a mixed performance in the warm-up match, the schedule for the Coppa Italia also came out.

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

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

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

After the draw, Naples played against Cesena from Serie B in the first round of the Coppa Italia.

This is the old opponent from last season.

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

That is, he has won all league titles in Italy, except Serie A.

This is unique in Italian football!

No one has ever achieved such an achievement.

Proper Champion Collector!

Another notable trait of the central Italian coach 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 am very upset with Gao Shen, the subversive of Italian football.

Unexpectedly, the two sides actually met again.

As soon as the Coppa Italia schedule came out, Castori said excitedly that Cesena will definitely show his best side at the San Paolo Stadium and show the best Italian defensive art.

"We want a clean sheet for Napoli!"
