Four Hundred and Fourteenth, Let's Find Fault!

The history of Corvelciano can be traced back to 1957.

At that time, there were two very prestigious investors in Florence, the owner of Florence, Luigi Ridolfi, and the then vice president of the Italian Football Federation, Dante Beretti, who hoped to bring something unique to Italian football. They hope to bring together football coaches from different countries, backgrounds and beliefs to communicate with each other and inspire more innovative thinking.

So, they built this Corvelciano near the home stadium of Florence.

That is to say, this place was originally specially prepared for the coaches. It was only later that the national team chose to set up a training base here, so it gradually became the center of Italian football.

In the past few decades, it has attracted countless coaches from Italy and even from all over the world.

Ulivieri introduced the long history of Corvelciano to Gao Shen, and then visited the Football Museum.

It is said to be a museum, but in fact there are six rooms as exhibition halls, which display some championship trophies, game equipment and photos, and some medals from the 1930s to the present, representing the glorious history of Italian football.

But these are past tense.

According to Ulivieri, these are all face, the real inside is a lecture hall and a huge library, the purpose of the former is to invite many famous marshals or famous coaches from all over the world every year They come to speak and bring their unique tactical concepts, thinking and training methods.

All those invited to give lectures here are all outstanding in their fields.

This more or less satisfies the high vanity.

Because he will also give his first speech in this lecture hall.

The library, you can tell by the name, it is the most precious place of Corviciano, and it can be called the most abundant library in the world of football. You can find all kinds of authoritative books related to football here.

But these are not the most special.

Because of collecting books, you can collect them here, and others can also collect them.

But Corviciano's library has many treasures that can't be found or even seen outside.

This is to mention a characteristic of Corviciano in coach training, that is, every coach who graduates from here must leave a thesis. There is no limit to the topic of the thesis, as long as it is related to football. But it must be able to reflect the gains and ideas of the coach when he was studying here, as well as his thinking about football.

From Lippi to Capello, from Ancelotti to Mancini and others, they all left their papers here.

Gao Shen doesn't have much interest in other things, but he is particularly interested in this one.

Antonio Conte's dissertation is as long as 40 pages, and the content is related to the 4312 formation.

This made Gao Shen a little curious, because didn't Conte play a back three later?

The thesis of the current Roma coach Spalletti is "The use of the three-five-two formation in modern football games".

This red wolf king is the back three,

my God.

Ancelotti's thesis was written in 1997, entitled "The Future of Football: More Dynamic".

At first glance, this topic seems to be very vague, and even advanced people have some doubts. Did Fatty An's paper come out of nowhere?

But after reading it, I have to say that this paper is real. In 1997, it predicted the various changes in football over the years, and I made a lot of charts to analyze the changes in football inside and outside the stadium.

It has to be said that Fatty An has a big picture.

Mancini's thesis was to discuss the role and importance of the attacking midfielder in the game.

But the question is, Gao Shen wondered, was this guy a creative attacking midfielder when he coached Inter Milan?

Stankovic is also very reluctant, right?

Allegri's thesis was about the three players in the midfield.

He believes that the midfield organizer must have a strong sense of position and be able to pass the ball forward quickly when defending counterattacks.

The players on the right must be good at running and have a good ability to fight in the air. The players on the left have better skills and can break through the opponent and move forward.

This directly made Gao Shen think of the midfield configuration when Allegri coached Juventus later.

Pirlo dragged behind, with Pogba on the left and Vidal on the right.

Nima, properly turn the theory into reality.

But the question is, why did Pirlo leave Milan?

There is also Sarri, whose thesis topic is the specific training planning and arrangement of the game week.

...

Gao Shen is in the museum, but in the library, he just lingers and forgets to return.

Of course, most of the time he watched and complained in his heart.

If many years later, the library has the opportunity to open to the outside world, how would the fans at that time feel when they read the papers of these famous coaches?

Do you have the feeling that domestic college graduates are looking for a job and their major is wrong?

All the books in the library, as well as the papers of all graduated coaches, are open to all students and members of the coaching association, and they can come to refer to and read at any time.

This is what Ulivieri said was Corvelciano's greatest asset.

And the deepest feeling is the gap.

In many cases, domestic fans only pay attention to the outcome of the game.

As everyone knows, the game is a presentation of results, not the whole of football.

Behind the game are players, coaches, staff, etc., the joint efforts of countless people.

Behind the players, coaches and staff, what is reflected are the business results of the entire football youth training, coach training and football industrialization.

Why is Italy known as the kingdom of tactics?

Why does everyone say that Italian coaches are all tactical masters?

How to explain, for so many years, Italy's excellent coaches have always emerged in an endless stream?

Because they have a very complete coach training system.

What is the background of the rich and powerful teams?

This is!

The most complete youth training system, the best coach training system, and the most advanced league system in the world.

As long as they have them, how can there be no talents?

It's like Italy now, what does it matter if their youth training can't produce talents?

The foundation of youth training is still there. As long as the youth training system is properly reformed, with the best coaches and the best league in the world, are you afraid that no talents will emerge?

Look at Germany, then France, and then England, they all came out in this way.

There is no youth training, no coach training system, and no league. Is it possible that talents will emerge from the rocks?

Look at Coverciano again, what a great advantage it has been inherited from 1957 to now!

The score on the football field may be 0-1, 0-2, or even 0-30-4, but these are just a presentation of the results in 90 minutes.

The truly insurmountable, truly hopeless gap lies off the court.

To be honest, after visiting Corvelciano's library, Gao Shen was really sad.

Feeling sad for the disparity between the football in his home country and the football powerhouse, he even wondered if he would be able to see the rise of football in his home country in his lifetime.

But these are not things he can change alone.

Even if Gao Shen does well, even if Gao Shen becomes the best head coach in the world, even if Gao Shen has the opportunity to lead other countries' national teams to win the World Cup in the future, so what?

He still can't change the status quo of football in his motherland.

This is what makes Gao Shen feel sad and helpless the most.

But besides this, he also had a strong will from the bottom of his heart, he wanted to make himself stronger and better.

In order to have the opportunity in the future, he can return to China to pass on what he has learned to his domestic counterparts, bring back the most advanced European tactical concepts and training systems, and do his part for football and fans in his motherland.

As for coaching...

just forget it.

Think about Lippi later, and then think about other coaches...

Gao Shen couldn't imagine that he would travel across the country just by cursing the national football team. If he really wanted to be the head coach of the national football team, the comrades in the Space Management Bureau would be very busy at that time.

Work overtime every day just to catch this guy who scolds the national football team all day and wears it around!

Is it fun?

...

After visiting Coverciano, Gao Shen, accompanied by Ulivieri, rested for a while, and then began to go to the lecture hall.

At this time, the lecture hall was already full of people.

Gao Shen's first speech was not made public, and the media and fans probably didn't hear much about it, but it still aroused great repercussions in the European professional coaching circle.

The number of people in Italy is the largest, not only the students who are currently studying in Coverciano, as well as some national team players and coaches, but also well-known players such as Mancini, Allegri, Conte, Pioli and Sarri. Coaches, all come here for fame.

There are also foreign countries like Klopp and Tuchel from Germany, the bearded guy Gao Shen met outside the gate, as well as the assistant coach of the German national team Hans Flick, France's Blanco, There are also Pochettino from Argentina, Eric Ten Hag from the Netherlands, Portugal's Villas-Boas and so on.

Before entering the arena, Gao Shen looked at the list in his hand, and looked at the names on it that were famous before the crossing. Even though they were not well-known yet, he still felt trembling.

Fortunately, since time travelling, he has seen a lot.

I have seen a lot of great people from all walks of life. Although I am a little excited in my heart now, I am more proud and proud.

Needless to say, when he writes his autobiography in the future, he can also be as awesome as Ferguson.

"By the way, Fernando." Before Gao Shen entered the door, he suddenly thought of an idea and held Lucas back.

Lucas looked at Gao Shen suspiciously.

"Go and borrow a camera, I'll take a photo with them later."

"Huh?" Lucas was a little confused.

is this necessary?

You are a famous coach in Europe now, and most of those inside are unknown people.

Looking at his expression, Gao Shen knew what he was thinking, and clicked his tongue, "This is the first time I give a speech in my life. It is a kind of fate for me and them. I must take a photo as a souvenir. Hurry up. "

Lucas was confused, what the hell is this?

Gao Shen was already happy in his heart.

Now we think about things more and more thoughtfully.

After a few years, these people will become famous, and they will throw the photos on Twitter, and add a sentence: Everyone find fault!

How awesome!

Ferguson can't compare to us!
