Chapter 13
Wrong, boss (first update, please vote for me)
Chen Yingxiong is observing Martin O'Neill. He wants to see how this head coach can be better than Dalglish and what ability he has to replace the club's national king and legend.
So at the beginning, he adopted a stand-alone mode of non-confrontation and non-cooperation.
He is the kind of person who is nice to you if you are nice to him. Dalglish was very good to him. Even if his coaching level was criticized a lot, he still supported Dalglish.
He is as simple as that.
At present, Martin O'Neal has not done anything that makes him feel comfortable, so Chen Yingxiong continues to observe.
Martin O'Neill can also feel Chen Yingxiong's lukewarm attitude towards him - he is not a fool. As a professional coach with more than 20 years of coaching career, if he can't feel the emotions of the players, That would be in vain.
He also knows that Chen Yingxiong is Liverpool's number one star and the most important piece of the puzzle for Liverpool's re-emergence.
If he wants to lead Liverpool to achieve success, he must have a good relationship with Chen Yingxiong. Or to say the least, even if you can't be friends with Chen Yingxiong, you can't be enemies.
Martin O'Neill is the kind of head coach who doesn't have the airs of a famous coach, because he has always only been a little famous in English and Scottish football, and is far inferior to coaches like Ferguson, Wenger, and Dalglish, so he has nothing She's airs and won't act like a big name. The way of thinking about problems is not to put yourself in a superior position first and then think about the problem.
He is able to lower his stance, something that many head coaches cannot do.
Especially in England, the head coach in England is the manager of the team. They have great power and have the supreme power of life and death over the players, so they will naturally feel that they are superior to others.
O'Neal has no conflicts in this regard, so he is lucky.
If he is the kind of arrogant head coach, he will first purge players who have a good relationship with the previous head coach, either by kicking them out or putting them on the bench. Then Chen Yingxiong will definitely fight him to the end. By then, the Liverpool dressing room will be restless.
This is why Niang chose Martin O'Neill instead of a head coach with a particularly outstanding personality. In his opinion, O'Neal is the best lubricant in the locker room. Only people like Chen Yingxiong can get along peacefully with people like O'Neal.
Martin O'Neill decided to talk to Chen Yingxiong. The season was about to start, and he didn't want to be confused about Chen Yingxiong's thoughts. If there were any conflicts during the season, the whole season might be over.
Chen Yingxiong's temper and character are always explosive. He has learned a lot from the media before. When he was studying Liverpool, he put a lot of effort into Chen Yingxiong.
Although it is said that when Chen Yingxiong is in good form, Liverpool may not perform well. But if Chen Yingxiong's condition is not good, Liverpool's results will definitely not be good.
To complete the tasks of the new season, the first goal is to ensure Chen Yingxiong's condition.

After the training, Chen Yingxiong still chose to stay and practice additional free kicks - in the end, he just wanted to find a cover for his sudden learning of free kicks, so that his teammates would believe that he learned the free kicks through additional practice and would not doubt it. The source of his free kick skills.
But now it has become a real kind of additional training. He has indeed continued to improve and maintain his free kick standards through this kind of additional training.
All the training time in the copy was reserved for the ball-stopping exercises that Van Basten asked him to do.
Martin O'Neill watched Chen Yingxiong practice free kicks from a distance, and he thought it was different from what the media said. In the media's description, Chen Yingxiong is an arrogant and arrogant person. Everyone focuses on his character and temper, but few people pay attention to the secret of this man's success - why he can become a successful person in the industry. Whoever beats Messi in the Champions League can't do it because his character is more arrogant than Messi, right?
Everyone always hates this person's various behaviors, such as arrogance, rudeness, brutality, and impoliteness... but no one is willing to study why he is successful and why he can be successful in the Premier League for the first time. Won the top scorer in one season.
It's no wonder that when they met Chen Yingxiong, the only way out was failure.
O'Neal was at home last season, so he can look at this season's Premier League games from a completely neutral perspective.
You will never defeat your opponent if you don't look him in the face.
This is the philosophy that Martin O'Neill believes in.
Watching Chen Yingxiong kick the football towards the goal again and again, some of the balls successfully bypassed the wall and flew into the goal, while some of the balls were either too high or too far, which made him even more determined.
This person's success must be because he has put in a lot of hard work and perseverance that is unbearable for ordinary people.
He stepped onto the turf.
"Don't you take a break, hero? You've been practicing for half an hour." He shouted to Chen Yingxiong from a distance.
Chen Yingxiong turned around and saw that the person coming was the head coach. He still kicked the football out of his feet, and then turned to look at O'Neal.
"I'm not tired, boss."
"Your physical fitness is awesome..." O'Neal admired sincerely. The first stage of pre-season training is mainly physical training, which is relatively intensive. The purpose is to improve physical fitness and allow the players to store enough physical energy. This way, they will not be exhausted after just a few games.
Therefore, the training intensity these days is very high, and it is all physical training. However, after such training, Chen Yingxiong was able to practice with himself for an extra hour as if nothing happened. I have to say that his physical fitness is really good. outstanding. If other players did this every day, they would have been stopped by the team's coach and doctor.
In fact, when Martin O'Neal first came to the team, he was surprised to see Chen Yingxiong training so hard. What surprised him even more was that no one on the team, whether it was the coach or the team doctor, tried to stop him. After inquiring, he found out that Chen Yingxiong had been practicing like this since the second half of last season. They were all used to it, and they didn't see Chen Yingxiong getting exhausted due to extra training.
"I really can't imagine that you are at risk of head diseases because of your frequent use of headers..."
Chen Yingxiong shrugged and said with disdain: "That's just the doctors worrying about it. In fact, I'm not worried about it." He was right. He had never worried about the possibility of brain damage due to frequent use of headers. disease. The reason why he agreed to use less headers was simply because he planned to accept this seemingly rare challenge - whether he could score more than 30 goals in a season without headers and become the top scorer.
This is obviously more meaningful than preventing head diseases.
So Chen Yingxiong actually hasn't taken the doctor's words to heart yet. If necessary, he will definitely use his head to score goals, but now he wants to challenge the limit. Naturally, he will use it as little as possible. He has to train his legs first, right? Always using his best weapon against the enemy and always winning easily will make him lose the motivation to improve himself.
He wants to become an all-around center, a super invincible being. For this goal, what's so great about not allowing headers to be used temporarily?
Of course, Martin O'Neill didn't know what Chen Yingxiong was thinking. He just thought that Chen Yingxiong didn't care.
But he actually doesn't care much. He also felt that the doctor of sports medicine was too exaggerated. There were so many header players in football. How many of them had Alzheimer's disease after they retired? There are so few of them.
However, Niang, the general manager of the club, took this matter very seriously. He also felt that even if Chen Yingxiong lost his header, he was still very good with his feet, so he did not get into trouble with Niang.
Since neither party cares, there is no need to continue discussing this issue.
Martin O'Neill didn't come to Chen Yingxiong to talk about his head. He planned to have a heart-to-heart talk with Chen Yingxiong and get to know each other, so that it would be more convenient for everyone to cooperate.
How to start talking about this topic with Chen Yingxiong?
Martin O'Neill is also prepared. He has studied Chen Yingxiong's character, and he believes that he is a relatively straightforward person. If you tell him something directly, it may be better than hinting him in a roundabout way. Because with his IQ, he may not be able to understand some hints...
So he said it bluntly.
"That's right, hero, I want to talk to you."
Chen Yingxiong shrugged: "Okay."
He neither refused nor was he very happy. He faced his first private conversation with the new head coach in the most ordinary manner.
"They all say that the 16 goals Messi scored last season were the 16 goals that made history. They were the 16 goals that no one had ever scored before and no one would come after. I don't think so."
Martin O'Neill was observing the changes in Chen Yingxiong's expression as he spoke. People like Chen Yingxiong should not be good at hiding their inner thoughts. If he has any thoughts, he can definitely tell it through the changes in his expression.
Sure enough, when he said this, Chen Yingxiong raised his eyebrows.
Martin O'Neill knew that he had made the right bet - Chen Yingxiong was really unhappy with Messi!
Think about it, for an equally excellent center, Messi was praised by the media as the best in the world just because he did not participate in the Champions League for a season. He must be unhappy... How can a proud person tolerate his opponent riding on him? Shit on his neck and have so many people cheering for him?
And Chen Yingxiong is exactly such a proud person.
"So my goal this season is to get the team back into the Champions League. To prove to the world that Liverpool also has one of the top scorers."
Chen Yingxiong spoke.
"Wrong, boss. It's not the top shooter, Liverpool also has one. But... the most powerful shooter, only Liverpool has one!"
Chen Yingxiong pointed to himself with his thumb and said confidently and brazenly.
