Seven Hundred and Ninety Second King of Europe

Manchester City beat Everton 2-0 with difficulty and did not cause too many waves in the Premier League.

Everyone is used to the strength of Manchester City.

Under Gao Shen's coaching, in just over two years, Manchester City has transformed from a nouveau riche in the original population into a top team in the Premier League, especially after winning the Champions League, it has steadily entered the league. The ranks of the new giants of the Premier League.

This can be regarded as Gao Shen's greatest contribution to Manchester City.

You know, Chelsea have not won a Champions League so far.

From Mourinho to Scolari to Hiddink to Ancelotti, now it's Villas-Boas's turn, Chelsea's Champions League dream has been done countless times, Abramovich has invested astronomical amounts, but always Failed to get my wish.

And just this round. Chelsea, who suffered a disastrous away defeat to Manchester United in the last round, beat newly promoted Swansea 4-1 at home.

This should have been a great thing, but unexpectedly, after the game, the Daily Mail exclusively broke the news.

Lampard and Villas-Boas had a falling out!

First-hand knowledge is from the Daily Mail columnist Martin Samuel.

The entire English football world is very clear that Martin Samuel is Lampard's hardcore, and the relationship between the two is excellent.

This fat man who was born in The Times, after becoming famous, was poached by the Daily Mail with an annual salary of 250,000 pounds, and every time he was able to get Chelsea's exclusive insider*, it was thanks to him and Lan Pard, and the good relations in the Chelsea dressing room.

At that time, the double virtue incident of the England national team was full of turmoil. Martin Samuel was the pen dedicated to cheering for Lampard. The pen battle between him and Henry Winter of the Daily Telegraph was in full swing.

Henry Winter is close friends with Liverpool legend Dalglish. Most of his fans are Liverpool fans. Naturally, they are cheering for Gerrard, so there is a lot of fighting with Martin Samuel.

This can be regarded as a major feature of the English media.

Every newspaper office will have its own loyal fans, so as soon as there is a disturbance, someone will immediately jump out to add fuel to the flames.

The media uses this to make news. Attracting eyeballs and gaining sales, the club also uses this to increase popularity and attract fans.

Every club will also have a dedicated public relations department to influence and even control public opinion.

This is true all over the world.

For example, Real Madrid thought about letting Iker Casillas' girlfriend resign to work in Real Madrid's public relations department, and the head of Real Madrid's public relations department is Vulture Butragueno, who has a very good relationship with the Spanish media.

Ferguson mentioned in his autobiography many times that every time a Manchester United player made a mistake and the media wanted to report it, he would get the news in advance.

Some news was suppressed by him in advance, and some news couldn't be helped.

Of course, there is a price to be paid for suppressing the news.

This is why Ronaldinho initially accused Barcelona of not protecting him.

If Barcelona wants to protect Ronaldinho, many of his news will not be published at all,

Even if it is published, as long as the way of writing news is slightly changed, fans will have a completely different perception and impression of him. … .

! But Barcelona didn't do that.

Once or twice is okay, but the more times, coupled with the unsatisfactory performance on the court, the fans' perception of him will plummet.

This is by no means an accident.

If you think about it carefully, you will know that from Maradona to Rivaldo to Ronaldinho, Deco and others, and even to Messi in the future, Barcelona's method of selling players can be said to be in the same line.

Real Madrid is definitely not a white lotus, they do the same thing.

From Hierro and Bosque, to Raul later, then to Casillas, and then Ramos...

all the same.

From the perspective of running a club, these are all normal.

Like Hierro, Bosque, Raul, Casillas and others, they are all loved by Real Madrid fans, but they are older.

players like them. If it stays, it has to be reused. If it is not reused, it will be a hidden danger in the locker room.

But selling is also a problem, because they are so popular with local fans, how to sell?

Believe it or not?

If you sell it now, the fans will go straight to the gate of the Bernabéu when they turn around.

Therefore, the guidance of public opinion has become a very good way.

In fact, later Hierro, Raul and Casillas and others also returned to Real Madrid one after another.

Now, Chelsea have encountered such a problem.

Boas announced in a high-profile manner at the beginning of the season that he wanted to have a new metabolism, and even included Lampard, Terry, Drogba and other veterans on the list.

Against Swansea*, Lampard sat on the bench for the entire game and didn't let him play for a minute.

Before the whistle was blown at the end, Lampard put down his pick directly, turned around and walked back to the dressing room with a gloomy face, without smiling the whole time, almost writing the word "unhappy" on his forehead.

The next day, the Daily Mail published an article by columnist Martin Samuel, publicly accusing Villas-Boas of lacking respect for Lampard and other meritorious veterans, and believed that Chelsea's performance this season lacked the strength to hit the championship.

There is no doubt that Martin Samuel's spearhead is directed at Boas.

Combined with Lampard's early departure, this is sure to spark a wave of reactions from Chelsea fans.

Not to mention anything else, Lampard's status in the minds of Chelsea fans will not be lost to captain Terry.

all right. Now you are a newcomer Boas, you are going to take down our favorite local leader, if the team performs well, if you Boas is as good as Mourinho, then we will recognize it .

But looking at it now, you don't seem to be doing well!

Martin Samuel said that so far this season, Lampard has only played four games, three substitutes, one start but was replaced in midfield, which caused him to lose his place in the national team.

"He doesn't want to continue to be a substitute!"

...

When Gao Shen saw the news, he was really helpless.

Did Boas do it right?

In the long run, he should be right.

But no matter the method or the process, he made huge mistakes.

It's only just started now, and then there was turmoil in the locker room. Veterans such as Drogba and Terry began to rebound, and the team's performance plummeted. Only interesting. … .

! Sometimes, Gao Shen feels that the world is really full of strange things.

For example, Zhu Yunqi in the Ming Dynasty was able to make a show, and directly hand over the great country to his fourth uncle.

The descendants of this fourth uncle also made a lot of coquettish operations, and they just handed over the Great Ming Dynasty to the Great Qing Dynasty.

There is also this Boas, who also manipulated a lot of Sao, and killed himself alive.

What do you think of his tactical thinking?

Gao Shen can be regarded as half of his master. Boas often went to Italy to listen to Gao Shen's lectures. His tactical thinking was very advanced, and he followed Gao Shen's pace closely.

Being able to win the Triple Crown in Porto, his coaching ability is definitely the best among his peers.

Of course, the premise is that you don't compare yourself with the advanced ones!

Where is the biggest problem with Boas?

Gao Shen felt that he seemed to be a very good department head, but he couldn't handle the relationship with his subordinates.

This is very common in enterprises, and generally speaking, this kind of executive is often difficult to achieve results.

Take the matter of Lampard this time as an example.

If you change it to advanced. He wouldn't have said that at all before the season, but he'd do it.

How to do it?

Isn't he a veteran?

Pick you up one by one.

If I don't say anything, I will deal with you one by one, which not only stabilizes the team but also achieves the goal, it is a waste of time.

However, Boas has already released "ruthless words".

That's fine, I'll do it!

Anyway, I have been offended, so I will stick to it.

But how did Boas do it?

Lampard, Drogba and Terry still played non-stop, but they played less time.

As Samuel said, in the past four games, Lampard came off the bench three times and started one game but only played in the first half.

Come on buddy, are you humiliating?

Either you don't use it at all, be tough, and press to the end, or you can be clear and let him go to the toast, or even the reserve team.

If it is more ruthless, just like Ferguson sold Roy Keane, he sold Lampard to me directly!

This is courage!

Things have come to this point*, Villas-Boas is still smoothing things over, talking softly about Lampard's early exit, and praising him as an extraordinary player, will be back on the list soon, and will be better than everyone expected Be quick.

Please, what do you mean?

Can we give a clear statement?

If you say this and do it like this, don’t say that Lampard won’t feel better about you, even the young players who were originally grateful to you are starting to worry, and they will stick to your side and try their best to play for you ?

Gao Shen really wants to write a big letter for Boas!

...

"In the Premier League this season, Chelsea are out of play!"

Gao Shen said very firmly.

From the time Boas took office and various actions in Chelsea, Gao Shen knew that this kid would still be the same as in his previous life, unfortunately, he left halfway.

And Chelsea could well benefit Arsenal, Liverpool or Tottenham this season.

In addition to Manchester United and Manchester City, it is estimated that two of these three teams can reach the semi-finals.

"Right now. Chelsea is still in third place." Carlo reminded with a wry smile.

"It's only the sixth round, just wait, I'm not interested in watching all the Chelsea news before Villas-Boas gets out of class."

When he said this, Gao Shen had a confident expression of "I read a lot, so I'm sure I can't make a mistake", and turned around and left gracefully after finishing speaking.

In the coach's office, a group of people looked at each other in blank dismay.

This is the death penalty for Chelsea at the very beginning of the league?

Boas was the triple crown winner of the Portuguese Super League last season and the most popular young marshal in European football today. Is this going to make him go?

Is it too harsh?

"What should I do?" Carlos Vargas looked at Carlo for help.

He is a novice, and he used to be an assistant to Fernando Lucas, but now that Lucas is the CEO of Leeds United, he has been straightened up, and he is still a little unclear about the temper of the big boss.

Everyone else smiled.

Carlo also shook his head and smiled wryly, "What can we do? Don't hand him the lace news about Chelsea in the future, it's a waste of his time."

Although no one said anything, everyone had some doubts in their hearts.

Could it be that it was really as expected?

Will Boas really dismiss get out of class halfway?

The league has just begun, and Chelsea is finished?
