Chapter 285 Excellent Italian Coach (38/134)

Reporters quickly got other sources of what happened to Ballack that week and a half. m

Changsheng organized the youth team and the reserve team to cooperate with Barak in training, and specially gave Barak a small talk!

And not only general training, but also a daily tactical lesson and assignment of homework.

It is these things that helped Ballack find his status and find out how to integrate into Lazio's tactical system.

Some media said with emotion: "It is really a blessing for Ballack to meet such a coach. I now understand why Ballack must come to Lazio in the first place. Obviously, he knows that there is something he needs in Lazio..."

The ability of these media to play the rudder is one-on-one. Before Barak’s performance was not good, they laughed at Barack for hugging his thigh and even hugged him wrongly. Now that Barack’s condition has recovered, they immediately put Barack and Lazio is blowing up the sky...

It seems that Ballack was so far-sighted when he chose to join Lazio. Naturally, no one mentioned the word hugging the thigh.

Chang Sheng laughed off the media's change of attitude, and so did Barack.

Both of them know that there is a long way to go, and now it is just a good start. It will take time and hard work to really fully integrate into the other party.

Fontana, the team's psychiatrist, expressed surprise at Chang Sheng's methods.

"I thought you were going to give him a long talk all day..." said Fontana. "I didn't expect that you never took the initiative to talk to him about this issue..."

Chang Sheng smiled: "Sometimes, the power of words is far less than that of actual actions. Michelle's problems cannot be solved by rhetoric. First of all, he must understand his situation. Losing the German national team gave him a lot. Big stimulus. When he himself desperately wants a change, that's okay. Training will do the rest."

Finally, Chang Sheng spread his hands: "So I said, I am not a psychiatrist, I can only use my own way."

Fangtana pursed her lips and smiled: "As I said, sometimes, Yeluzi works very well."

Ballack recovered his form in the subsequent training and reached an agreement with his teammates. He has played for many teams and has also played in a foreign country, so he has no problem with how to get along with different teammates. He speaks German as well as English, there are players in the team who can speak both languages,

There is no language barrier either.

When Ballack bonded with the players, his performance on the training ground and in games naturally got better and better.

Three days later the first round of the Champions League group stage. Lazio challenged Twente in the Netherlands away, and Ballack started again.

He still had no goals or assists in this game, but his role in the team has become more and more important.

His experience and ability helped him control the team's midfield well.

Then after Modric came off the bench, he quickly hid himself again. Assisting Modric next to him, not rushing to attack, just doing his own job.

Ballack used to be one of the top three midfielders in the world. He has a high understanding of football, and it is not too difficult to adapt to Lazio's tactics.

This game proved it.

In the last league game, Ballack was the core of the organization.

In this game, he changed his identity. But just as well.

Chang Sheng was completely relieved.

In the seventy-seventh minute, he replaced Ballack.

This time, it wasn't because of Ballack's poor performance.

He hopes that Ballack will get a chance to rest and continue to contribute to the team in the long season to come.

After all, he started three games in a row. Almost never rested.

And he was thirty-four years old, no longer young.

In this game, Lazio finally defeated Twente 3:0 in the away game and won the first round of the Champions League.

The third round of the league is Lazio's away game against Fiorentina.

This game is often victorious and continues to rotate, and the starting players are almost completely different from the ones that played against Twente before. Except for the goalkeeper or Handanovic, everyone in other positions has been replaced.

Even so. Lazio still beat Fiorentina 2:1 away.

After the game, the Italian media exclaimed, "Lazio is an invincible battleship!"

"This Lazio is invincible!"

"My God, who's going to stop Lazio?!"

"Lazio have been heading towards the title from the very beginning of the season!"

...

Looking at the way the media are fussing, it will definitely make people think that there are still three rounds before the end of the league. But in fact, the league has only started three rounds...

The outside world is very optimistic about Lazio, but Changsheng does not allow any complacency to rise inside Lazio.

It hasn't been long since the match against Atletico Madrid, and everyone's memory shouldn't have problems so quickly.

The fourth round of the league is a highlight. Lazio welcomes Milan at home.

Milan changed their head coach this season. Leonardo, who had a poor coaching performance last season but has a tough personality, left the position of Milan's head coach.

He was replaced by the local coach Massimiano Allegri, who is little-known in Italy.

In fact, it is wrong to say that Allegri is "unknown". When he was coaching in Cagliari, he led this weak team to rank ninth in the league. He also won the best coach in Serie A in the 2008-2009 season. Award "Golden Chair".

When Chang Sheng dominated Serie A football, he was able to break Chang Sheng's monopoly and win the best coach award. It can be said that it was not easy, and it also proved his ability to some extent.

As a time traveler, Chang Sheng naturally knew about Allegri.

He knew that Allegri led the team to the league championship in the first season of coaching Milan, and tied with Sacchi, Capello and Zaccheroni as the first season of coaching Milan to win the league championship. head coach.

Allegri is a level coach, although he is not well known.

He is low-key, tactful, even humble, in the locker room.

But what a rich club needs is such a head coach, because he will not intensify conflicts in the locker room, but will make the locker room appear quiet.

Now Allegri, who just took office, is in a crisis of confidence. Because after he took over Milan. Milan's results are not very good.

The league has started three rounds. Milan's results are one win, one draw and one loss. Both wins and draws are very average.

But as a wealthy team, such a result naturally means failure.

Coupled with the poor performance in the warm-up match, the fans are full of doubts about him, and the media is also full of articles criticizing him.

Chang Sheng didn't intend to sympathize with poor Allegri, he wanted to stab Allegri in the heart again.

Against Milan at home, this game. Lazio will never accept defeat.

They have to win.

In this way, you can get yourself three points, and more importantly, let your competitors suffer a heavy blow.

It would be even better if Allegri could be dismissed directly from this failure...

※ ※ ※

With Allegri's character and temper, he will not initiate a war of words before the game.

Chang Sheng didn't utter wild words either.

Both men appeared peaceful before the match.

Just doing their own preparations.

But when the game started, the situation was completely different.

Both sides played very passionately.

Allegri has just arrived in Milan. It also mainly relies on Milan's previous lineup for fine-tuning.

At Lazio's home court, he did not choose to attack rashly and play against Lazio, but contracted his defense and played defensively and counterattacked.

He believes that if the game is a draw in the end, it is a victory.

Lazio, on the other hand, is actively attacking and looking for opportunities to score goals.

The game soon entered the half-court offensive and defensive stage.

Milan left only one Zlatan Ibrahimovic in front. Use it when fighting back.

※ ※ ※

It has to be said that Allegri has put in a lot of effort. Against Lazio's offense, his defensive arrangements are very targeted.

Facing Lazio's dense firepower situation. Instead of man-to-man defense, he plays zone defense. This avoids being disrupted by Lazio's multi-core tactics.

In defense, formation is everything.

As long as the formation is not chaotic, it will not be so easy for the opponent's offense to score goals.

The advantage of zone defense is to ensure that the formation is not chaotic to the greatest extent.

Milan is a team with a defensive tradition. If they are really determined to defend, they are quite solid.

So Lazio failed to score in the first half.

At this moment. The commentators who were still shouting "Lazio is invincible" changed their tone again.

"Milan is already halfway there!"

"Allegri did a great job! He deserves to be the coach who can snatch a Golden Chair from Chang!"

"Allegri has defended the dignity of Italian local coaches! He made people realize that we should not be superstitious about those famous foreign coaches. In our country, there are also excellent young coaches!"

"Allegri has always had a problem. Lazio has been unable to attack for a long time. As time goes by, the situation will only become more and more unfavorable to them..."

...

It was only half of the game, and these commentaries blew Allegri into the sky. They had been looking forward to it for a long time, and finally the day came when a native Italian head coach challenged Chang Sheng, and he was about to succeed!

Mancini, as one of the best local coaches in Italy, had made people have high expectations, but when facing Chang Sheng, Mancini was like a kindergarten child, powerless to fight back.

Mourinho is the only head coach who can compete with Chang Sheng. The Inter Milan he leads can make Lazio fall into a hard fight, which is already not easy.

But Mourinho is also a foreign monk, which makes the xenophobic Italians feel uncomfortable. They were unwilling to cheer Mourinho, and when he left Italy, all he got was ridicule and abuse.

Allegri is different, he is a real native Italian coach.

And in the match against Changsheng, Lazio also fell into a hard fight!

Such an excellent head coach deserves their high hopes.

They began to fantasize about Chang Sheng throwing things angrily in the locker room, which must be very joyful...
