Three Hundred and Sixty-Three Coaching Barcelona, ​​I Am Not as Good as Him!

The last time I was in Barcelona, ​​Gao Shen was warmly entertained by Guardiola. This time, Guardiola and his party traveled all the way to the capital. Gao Shen also served as a host and treated them warmly.

As for the location, I chose the roast duck restaurant of the most famous gourmet brand in the capital.

According to Su Qing's introduction, Gao Shen chose one of the branches, which is said to have the best taste.

Guardiola, Begiristan and Soriano are all coming to China for the first time, and they are very unfamiliar with everything here.

Gao Shen asked for a private room and ordered some special dishes to let them taste the delicious Chinese delicacies.

Although, the three of Barcelona have their own concerns, but when they eat delicious food, it is also a feast, so happy.

Guardiola didn't start the topic until he was almost finished eating.

...

"Gao, do you still remember the proposal I told you?"

"What?" Gao Shen pretended to be stupid.

Guardiola smiled, "You come to Barcelona as the head coach, and I will be your assistant, remember?"

Gao Shen nodded, "I remember, but I also said at the time that this is not within the scope of my consideration."

"Then you should think about it now."

High and silent.

Begiristan met and took over the conversation: "Pep told me before that you once mentioned an idea."

Gao Shen looked at Guardiola angrily, his eyes full of reproach.

Nimi, why did I tell you everything I told you when you turned around and told others?

Guardiola smiled and begged for mercy.

"I have studied with the technical team. The idea you mentioned is very feasible. Using Barcelona's youth players as a team to play Barcelona's traditional passing and possession advantages is what Barcelona has been best at for so many years. one question."

When Begiristan said this, he directly revealed the answer, "The offense and defense are out of balance."

"During Rijkaard's period, there were several games where he used the high-position pressing tactics, but he couldn't continue. The specific reasons are very complicated. There are factors of the players and the factors of the head coach. There are all aspects."

"But to be honest, after seeing Napoli's football style, we are all very curious. What if we transplanted this high-pressing tactic of Naples to Barcelona and combined it with the team's traditional advantages of passing and possession? "

Begiristan's problem is why he's here.

"It will usher in a brand new era!" Gao Shen said very confidently.

Begiristan, Guardiola and others all brightened up.

"You think it's feasible?" Begiristain asked.

"Of course." Gao Shen answered without doubt.

Why?

From the beginning to the end, the high-level is very clear about the train of thought and context.

He went from Vic Buckingham to Michels to Cruyff, then to Van Gaal to Rijkaard...

The in-depth quotes expounded on the history and changes of the entire technical and tactical system of the Netherlands and Barcelona, ​​which made Begiristan and Soriano both stunned. Only Guardiola, who knew this earlier, smiled.

This set of historical inheritance and context, not to mention Begiristan, maybe even Cruyff may not be able to explain it so clearly like Gao Shen.

Yes, Cruyff understands Barcelona's past and present, but he may not be as clear as Gao Shen.

Gao Shen listed these examples, in fact, they all want to prove one thing. Every success of Barcelona in history, or every success of Dutch football, is often behind the improvement of defensive level. High-position pressing is the most important thing. means.

So what now?

Gao Shen believes that with the adjustment and change of offside rules, technical players will gain more and greater living space.

Previously, the midfield needed to be equipped with a good defensive player, such as Makelele, Essien, Gattuso, Mohamed Sissoko or Mascherano, but now it is not needed.

Naples has proved that a double midfielder composed of two technical players such as Biglia and Rakitic,

It can also be adapted to modern football tactics.

And what they rely on is actually not excellent defensive ability, but running.

Systematic team oppression is the most advanced tactical concept at the moment.

"So, as long as Barcelona establishes such a system and can support such running, then in terms of defensive quality, it will definitely not lose to any team. On this basis, the technical advantages you have, especially It is the advantage of passing and controlling the ball, which will be infinitely magnified and its effect will be maximized."

The high-level summary is very powerful and very attractive.

Although Begiristan has not fully figured it out, he just wanted to understand a little bit, and he was already excited. Looking at Guardiola and Soriano, he now really understands why Guardiola will continue to recommend Gao Shen is in charge of Barcelona.

He is too familiar with Barcelona, ​​too familiar, even better than Barcelona's own people.

He has a lot of ideas about the future trend of football, and the prospects outlined are quite fascinating.

Although it's just a frame and a sketch, Begiristain seems to have seen that Gao Shen led Barcelona to play sexy football.

"Gao, we would like to ask you to be the head coach of our Barcelona!" Begiristain solemnly issued the invitation.

This is also the purpose of their trip.

Guardiola and Soriano also looked at Gao Shen with smiles, waiting for him to agree.

Having said so much, it can be seen that Gao Shen is also very interested in Barcelona. Gu Kang

But what none of them expected was that Gao Shen shook his head, "I'm not suitable for Barcelona."

"Not suitable?" Begiristan was stunned.

Guardiola and Soriano were also stunned.

"No, you're a good fit, I promise," Begiristan said.

Gao Shen shook his head and sighed, "Three reasons, first of all, I don't need to say more, you all know that I can't let go of Naples."

After a pause, Gao Shen said with a bitter smile: "This is a team that I have spent two years working hard to build bit by bit. Every player is selected and cultivated by me. I put a lot of effort into this team, and I think this team can go further, so I'm not willing to stop like this."

"Second, I'm from Real Madrid. Although Martin and I had a bad relationship back then, I still have deep feelings for this team. I have many friends there, and even, may not be in the future. Knowing when, it's entirely possible for me to go back, so..."

Gao Shen shook his head, he spoke very frankly and sincerely, it didn't look like he was being polite at all.

"Finally, and most importantly, I think there is someone who is more suitable than me. I even think he is the most perfect head coach of Barcelona. I am not as good as him in coaching Barcelona!"

Guardiola, Begiristan and Soriano all looked at each other in blank dismay.

In this world, is there anyone more suitable for Barcelona than Gao Shen?

"Who?" Begiristain asked.

"Pep!" Gao Shen looked at Guardiola.

Both Begiristan and Soriano looked at Guardiola in disbelief, only to find that the latter was already dumbfounded.

Guardiola?

He is the most suitable?

But although his performance in leading the second team is not bad, and although the reform has been very fruitful, he has never had the experience of coaching the first team.

"I know, you will think that he has no experience in coaching the first team, but I would like to ask you to recall, before I coached Real Madrid, did I have experience in coaching the first team?"

Both Begiristan and Soriano were left speechless by the profound questioning.

Because the living example is right in front of you.

But will Guardiola be the second deep?

"I know Pep very well, I know he is a very thoughtful manager, he hasn't tried it yet, but I can see that he will be a great manager, I believe, he will make the world Surprised!"

The high praise not only stunned Begiristan and Soriano, but even Guardiola himself couldn't believe it.

"Gao, have you misunderstood? We have agreed, you come to Barcelona to coach, and I will be your assistant..."

"Do you want to be someone's assistant all the time?" Gao Shen asked in a deep voice without letting him finish.

Guardiola was speechless.

Of course he doesn't want to.

As long as you don't want to, you will have to be alone sooner or later.

Is it now or in the future, is there a big difference?

not big.

Let's see if he's ready!

"Remember, you said that I have a good eye for picking players, and then you said that I also have a good eye for picking coaches, which makes you admire, and now I say, you, Guardiola, are the most suitable boss for Barcelona. Coach, going to be a very successful, great manager, don't you believe?"

At the end of Gao Shen's speech, he asked helplessly.

Begiristain figured it out, "Gao, you're serious."

"Of course, Tesiki, I never joke in this kind of thing. Pep is my best friend. He has been my assistant for so long. I know him better than anyone. I know what he can do. , I believe, you must also feel that he is different, don't you?"

"So, you don't want to coach Barcelona?" Begiristain asked again.

When Begiristan asked this question, both Guardiola and Soriano figured out what it meant.

The reason why Gao Shen is unwilling to take charge of Barcelona is because of Guardiola.

He wants to push Guardiola, his best friend, out!

Gao Shen knew that they had misunderstood, but he couldn't explain it at this time, and there was no need to explain it.

He would be happy to have Guardiola owe him such a huge favor.

Think about it, Guardiola will become famous in the future, and everyone he meets will say: I am very grateful to Gao Shen. If it was not for his full recommendation back then, I would not be able to...

When all the media reported Guardiola, they would say the last sentence: At the beginning, it was his Bole Gaoshen's full recommendation...

This is the status of the world!

Thinking about it makes me feel sour.

"I'm sorry, Tesiki, but please believe that Pep is the most suitable head coach for your Barcelona!" Gao Shen said very firmly.

Begiristain, Guardiola and Soriano all felt the profound decision.

He really doesn't intend to coach Barcelona, ​​but he tried his best to recommend Guardiola.

There is no way to become the king of Barcelona, ​​and Bole who has become the king of Barcelona is not bad.
