Three Hundred and Seventy-Fourth when Gao Shen Met Mourinho...

"Boss, I think I can do it!"

The next morning, when Benatia came to the training center, the first thing he did was to go to Gao Shen's office, stand in front of him, and tell him solemnly that he gave the final answer after a night of deliberation.

He wants to try it!

Gao Shen was very happy, and after encouraging him, he asked him to prepare for training.

After seeing off Benatia, Gao Shen had a smile on his face and seemed to be in a very happy mood.

He knew that he guessed the player correctly.

Before time travel, when I was a fan, I always had a feeling that the players who played in the Eredivisie and Portuguese Super League were not very popular.

Actually not.

This is because fans only pay attention to the results of the four major leagues for a long time. Leagues like Switzerland and Austria are already very rare.

Being able to achieve results in these leagues is enough to be regarded as a successful person in world football.

Because, in addition to this, there are countless leagues and teams that are not familiar with stepping stones.

Then, it is entirely conceivable that if a player wants to stand out step by step in the tests, and finally appear in the four major leagues, appear in the eleven-man list, and appear in front of the live broadcast cameras all over the world, that is How difficult is it?

Strength, luck, opportunity, will...all of these are indispensable.

And those who can become top players in the four major leagues all have extremely amazing and strong will.

Just like Ronaldo, how many fans criticized him for being fat, not self-disciplined, and for squandering his talents...

But few people think that the reason why he is like this is because he has experienced pain that no one can imagine, and he is experiencing pain that no one can understand.

He was criticized because he was Ronaldo. If it were someone else, he would be finished early, and he wouldn't even have the qualifications to be criticized.

There are also Ronaldinho who joined AC Milan this season.

He is indeed not self-disciplined enough, and he is indeed squandering his talent, but these are all things that happened after he became famous.

Before that?

Gao Shen was very sure from the very beginning that after Benatia suffered a severe blow to the knee ligament and was without the ball for a year, he was still able to play such an outstanding performance in Serie A. Spiritual will, and an unyielding heart.

Now it seems that his guess is not wrong at all.

...

"I don't understand."

After watching Benatia leave, Zidane said something strange.

"Let's listen to it." Gao Shen said with a faint smile.

He actually really enjoyed this feeling of answering Zidane's questions.

This is the future Qi Xuanzong!

Not to mention anything else, when Gao Shen retires in the future, he will directly publish an autobiography, which says: Back then, when Zidane was still a rookie, he asked me such a question...

Thinking about it, I think it's awesome, it's full of status in the world!

"I think he already had the answer yesterday, but why did you ask him to go back and think about it?" Zidane asked.

Gao Shen nodded.

Yesterday evening, Benatia was really excited by Gao Shen's words, and he could have given the answer on the spot, but Gao Shen didn't do that, but asked him to go back and think about it.

Only overnight, but the difference is huge.

"Because what I really want to get is not whether he promises me, nor whether he can do it well, but I want him to think about this question for himself, and give me an affirmative answer after thinking clearly. .”

After a pause, Gao Shen continued: "Young people are easy to get excited, but after a moment of impulsiveness, they are easy to fall into confusion, because they will find that the decision they made on the spur of the moment,

Instead, trap them and make them overwhelmed. "

"I hope they can think about it carefully before making an answer, so that they are not impulsive, and when they make a decision, they often find their own direction and won't be confused."

"I'm very happy, Zinedine. After careful consideration, he still feels that he can do it. This is what I am most satisfied with. You can take another look. In the next few days, he will behave Work harder than anyone else."

After finishing speaking, Gao Shen smiled at Zidane with a very unpredictable expression.

Zidane was confused, but he had a feeling of ignorance.

"Let's go, we have to prepare well for the targeted training against Inter Milan."

...

Benatia really worked harder in the subsequent training.

Especially in the team's targeted tactical training, Gao Shen specially arranged for him to partner with Cannavaro Jr.

The two have partnered a lot in warm-up matches, but they are not particularly familiar with each other and have a tacit understanding.

In the division of labor and cooperation, Benatia is responsible for the attack, and Cannavaro Jr. is responsible for delaying the defense. This requires the cooperation between the two to keep pace and establish a sufficient tacit understanding.

Fortunately, Benatia learned Italian well, and communicated and shouted with Cannavaro Jr. very smoothly.

When arranging targeted training, the coaching staff also intends to cultivate a tacit understanding between the two central defenders and strengthen their communication and cooperation.

In addition, Gao Shen also attaches great importance to the psychological construction of players.

If, in the last season, the strong rise of Bonucci and David Luiz caused Cannavaro Jr. to fall from the original main central defender to the third central defender, then after Benatia joined, Italy The central defender's third central defender was also challenged.

Gao Shen specifically talked about this with Cannavaro Jr., and at the same time, he could hear that Cannavaro Jr. was still somewhat depressed.

Having played so many games on the pitch, Cannavaro has no reason not to know Benatia's strength, and he is also self-aware of his own strength, especially when he is overwhelmed by Bonucci and David Luiz After one head.

Now, even a newcomer is about to climb on top of his head, Cannavaro Jr.'s mood can be imagined.

Gao Shen is actually very familiar with this kind of thing.

When he was in the company before, he often encountered old employees in similar situations.

The situation of Cannavaro Jr. is not the so-called salted fish, but after the rapid development of Naples, his personal ability and progress cannot keep up with the pace of the team, and then he is in the competition with Bonucci and David Luiz Lose the advantage.

But his personal will is still very strong.

Everyone knows that employees with low abilities but strong will should definitely focus on and support them.

Gao Shen has always done this. He encouraged Cannavaro to bravely step out of his comfort zone, change his playing style, and improve his ability. sense of responsibility.

For example, this season, Gao Shen asked him to take Benatia and teach him some "experience" in playing in Serie A.

While teaching people, it is also a kind of self-improvement.

Many companies like to give old employees all kinds of privileges, euphemistically saying, how hard they worked together in the past, but this approach is not advisable.

Gao Shen has seen this kind of situation many times in his previous life. The old employees and the new employees are incompatible with each other, which makes the management of the company impossible to maintain, which in turn affects the profitability of the entire company.

The same goes for the team locker room.

So no matter what the situation is, Gao Shen firmly stated that all players are treated equally.

Want to play?

Okay, put on your best performance and prove that you are worthy of this starting spot.

Now, he still promises to Cannavaro Jr.

As long as he is in good condition, as long as he shows a good performance, Gao Shen will still let him start.

"Paul, for the game against Inter Milan, our defense depends on you!" Gao Shen patted Cannavaro on the shoulder and explained earnestly.

Cannavaro Jr. is not young, he is already twenty-seven years old, but he is still quite moved by what he heard and nodded emphatically.

"Don't worry, I will never disappoint you!"

Gao Shen kept nodding with the expression that I trust you very, very much.

When others saw it, they would never have guessed that these two people are actually only one year apart.

...

After three days of preparation, Naples is about to head north to Milan.

Before departure, Gao Shen participated in the pre-match press conference and announced the squad for going north to Milan.

In an interview with the media, Gao Shen said that there is no doubt that Inter Milan is still the most powerful team in Serie A today.

"I never felt that there was anything special about being a defending champion team, because these are the results of last season and it has passed. We started from scratch like all teams this season. any advantage."

"Even, this title is more of a pressure for us, which requires all of us to do better, because the title of defending champion will not create any problems for our opponents at all."

Gao Shen also doesn't think that nothing achieved last season will have any impact on Inter Milan this season.

"Mourinho is a great manager, there's no doubt about it, I've watched him from a very early age and learned a lot from him, he's a respectable manager and I don't I don't think he is as conservative as the rumors outside, he also played a lot of wonderful attacking football."

Gao Shen said that Inter Milan this season has made up for its biggest shortcoming.

There is more or less the connotation of Mancini here, and the profoundness is not concealed at all.

"With the strength of Inter Milan and a champion coach like Mourinho, I have no doubt that Inter Milan is the most competitive team in Serie A this season, and even in the Champions League."

For this Italian Super Cup, Gao Shen said that Naples has been affected by the absence of many players. When he is a guest at Meazza, his first consideration is how to play the highest level of the team.

As for the result of the competition, Gao Shen said that he is very confident of winning.

But after all the exaggeration in the front, the final confidence seemed somewhat pale and feeble.

And all the media reporters attending the meeting were puzzled.

Is Gao Shen showing weakness?

Could it be that the little troll Gao Shen met the big troll Mourinho, and withered before the game even started?
