Chapter 168 The White Robe Wizard (42/136)

After Chang Sheng and Guardiola explained the tactics to the players, Valencia's tactical training officially started.

But before that, Chang Sheng talked with Deco alone.

He hopes that Deco should play as a midfielder in Valencia, not the midfielder he is familiar with.

Deco was surprised by the head coach's request.

When he came to Valencia, he thought that he would still play in the familiar position of Porto. Aimar left, and Valencia just lost a midfielder.

Who would have thought that the head coach would let him play as a midfielder...

He felt very embarrassed: "I don't know about midfielders, sir..."

"You don't need to understand, Anderson. You just need to move the work you do in the front midfielder to the back midfielder. How to do it, our coaching team will think about it for you, and then help you complete it. I I just hope you have a mental preparation. I brought you to Valencia, not to let you play the main force..."

Hearing this, Deco's heart tightened—isn't he the main player? Is that a substitute?

Come to play as a substitute, who wants to!

As he approached, he heard Chang Sheng say, "It's for you to hit the core!"

Deco was stunned: "The core?"

Chang Sheng nodded: "Yes, the core."

He took out a CD from the drawer and handed it to Deco: "This is a collection of Guardiola's performance on the field in the Valencia game last season. I hope you go back and take a good look. What Guardiola did That's what I want you to do."

"I want you to be Valencia's engine, the guarantee that Valencia can run at high speed. Of course, if you can't, I will find someone else."

In the end, Chang Sheng said.

When Deco left Changsheng's office, he was still a little confused-he wanted to become the core of Valencia?

He looked down at the CD in his hand, as if there was some secret to success hidden in it.

※※※

The media and fans who pay attention to Valencia can learn about the progress of Valencia's preparations for the new season from the warm-up match.

What caught their attention was the new formation Valencia adopted in the warm-up match.

433.

Chang Sheng did not hide it, nor did he intentionally mislead the reporters and the media.

He thinks that his -taka is a tactic ahead of this era, and even if the other party sees it, it can't be cracked, so he doesn't have to make it too mysterious.

The formations have changed. People naturally don't know Valencia's main lineup for the new season.

In the warm-up match, Changsheng's rotation was very ordinary. The starting lineup was different in each game, and all eleven starting players would be replaced at each halftime.

He hopes that every player can integrate into this system as soon as possible, no matter who is missing. The system can operate normally.

But sharp-eyed reporters still found some clues.

For example, Deco was assigned to the midfielder position. Instead of the attacking midfielder he is familiar with.

Let Deco play the midfielder?

What does it mean?

The reporters couldn't figure it out.

Like Deco, they thought that they bought Deco just to let him replace Aimar. Unexpectedly, this was not a counter-substitution, but a start over.

In fact, Valencia's main lineup has not changed much compared to last season. After all, this lineup has proved their ability and tacit understanding last season. No need to completely break up and start over. Therefore, Changsheng didn't buy anyone this season, mainly to supplement the depth of the bench. Cambiasso, Mista and Arbeloa are all positioned as rotation players, and only Deco should be the main force.

The advantage of doing this is to ensure the integrity of the lineup. This season, Valencia's players have to adapt to the new formation. If you adapt to too many new teammates, it will only add chaos to the preparations.

Judging from the first warm-up match, the players did not seem to adapt to the new formation very well, and there was some lag between passing and running positions.

After all, they never hit 433 last season.

However, starting from the second warm-up match, the progress of the players can be seen.

The media started to marvel at how quickly Valencia got used to the new formation.

Then they remembered that it seemed that this kind of thing often happened in the winning teams. It is something that everyone could not do in the first place, but they all did it in the end.

For example, in the Copa del Rey final against Mallorca, no one could have imagined that Getafe could take only one week. Let Getafe, who has never been exposed to -taka tactics before, learn -taka. Although it is only superficial, it is surprising enough. Getafe relied on this tactic that no one could have imagined, defeated Mallorca and won the first Copa del Rey in their club history.

Then he only used one preseason training time. So Valencia, who has been playing defensive counterattacks, learned his so-called mad dog tactics.

Now looking at Valencia's performance in the new formation, it really makes people wonder if the Oriental has cast some magic.

But this is obviously impossible, so the media began to dig deeper into the reasons behind this.

They soon discovered a commonality of these several incidents.

That is, no matter in Getafe or Valencia, there is always a very low-key person around Chang Sheng-Rudy Gonzalez.

Then keep digging. It was discovered that this Rudy Gonzalez used to be the coach of Getafe, and also served as the acting head coach of a game. But the Getafe he coached was beaten 0:5 by the Atletico Madrid b team, so he only had one game as the head coach. Then Chang Sheng took office, and he became Chang Sheng's assistant coach.

Later, Changsheng once had a manager who was suspended for two games. The person who directed the game on behalf of him was Rudy Gonzalez, but he still messed up. At that time, the local media of Getafe also analyzed why Rudy Gonzalez was not suitable to be a head coach, and concluded that because of his poor psychological quality, he could not bear the pressure of being a head coach.

I continued to dig and found that Rudy Gonzalez had conflicts with Chang Sheng. When Chang Sheng first entered the Getafe first team, the relationship between the two was not particularly good.

But why did the relationship between the two become so good that they could wear a pair of pants?

The media researched and researched and came to a conclusion——Rudy Gonzalez's training ability is good, and it's not just good, it's very good.

In fact, Rudy Gonzalez is in charge of the daily training of the winning teams.

So the media easily came to such a conclusion - behind the magic of Chang Sheng is the credit of this Rudy Gonzalez.

In fact, there is nothing magical about Chang Sheng. The key is that this Rudy Gonzalez is too powerful. He can design a training plan in a short time that allows players to quickly increase their strength.

He is in charge of the training himself. Whether it is in Getafe or Valencia, the team has such results.

"...We have always focused our attention on Chang Sheng, but in fact the behind-the-scenes hero of the team is this low-key assistant coach Rudy Gonzalez!"

"The media always promotes that Chang is the biggest contributor to Valencia's ability to win the league championship, but in fact there are other people..."

For a while Rudy Gonzalez was hyped as the real hero behind the "myth of constant victory". Suddenly, it became the most important task for the rise of Getafe and Valencia. It is the secret of Changsheng's success.

Then when these reporters rushed to interview Rudy Gonzalez, Rudy Gonzalez, who didn't know what happened, looked confused: "What are you talking about?"

When he heard the reporters' explanation clearly, he couldn't help laughing: "Are you all right? Do you want to go to the hospital to see your brains?"

A group of reporters looked at each other, not understanding why Rudy Gonzalez would say that.

They reported on Rudy Gonzalez. It is hoped that Rudy's achievements will be publicized so that such an outstanding talent like him will not be buried.

For Rudy Gonzalez, this is a good thing. Why is Rudy Gonzalez not happy at all?

And the words are so mean, just like that Chang Sheng... What "do you want to go to the hospital to see your brains"? Are these words of kindness? Is this the attitude towards journalists who come here with good intentions?

Surprised to see the reporters, Rudy Gonzalez sighed. Then he shook his head and said, "I didn't expect to be discovered by you... That's right, I admit that I am the one behind the scenes that made Chang's team successful!"

The reporters' eyes flashed a scorching light again.

He admitted it!

As long as Rudy Gonzalez admits it, they can unmask the hypocrisy who often wins fame and fortune at the same time.

So they pricked up their ears and listened carefully to Rudy Gonzalez's next words.

Several pairs of eyes fixed on Rudy Gonzalez, not letting go of any change in his expression.

Rudy Gonzalez looked around, then approached the reporters mysteriously, lowered his voice and said, "Since you all found out, let me tell you the truth...Actually, I Is a magician..."

"Ah?" A reporter couldn't help crying out when he heard such an unexpected answer.

Rudy Gonzalez quickly put his hand to his mouth, making a gesture of shutting up: "Shh! Keep your voice down! Do you want me to be burned to death?!" He looked very angry.

But he continued on.

"I'm a magician... I use magic to help Chang achieve his goals. He just needs to tell me the goal of his training, such as practicing -taka within a week, and I will use magic like this! It will be done Yes! In fact, one second is enough. One week is just a cover-up I deliberately set up for fear of shocking the world..."

"Actually, it's not just about training. The results of those games were all manipulated by me with magic...so why did Valencia beat Real Madrid at home and away, and also win the Copa del Rey at the Bernabéu Stadium? ? Just because I did my best on the coaching bench! With a finger of magic, we won! Otherwise, you think that a rookie with no experience and prestige can just take over the team for ten games and win Leading Getafe to relegation? How could it be possible to lead Getafe to upgrade in the first full season. And win the league championship and the Copa del Rey? Also beat Atletico Madrid at home and away? Stop talking, so many incredible things, Didn’t you suspect it? Didn’t you think this was abnormal? Didn’t you think that this is something that can’t be explained at all, why does it happen?”

After a series of rhetorical questions, Rudy Gonzalez held his chest high and said, "It's very simple, because of me, the white-robed wizard Rudy Gonzalez!"

"What I said to you today, you must not say it... I think it is not easy for you to touch the edge of the truth... That's why I tell you, "Don't let me down... ...Of course, I don't mind showing you the power of a white robe wizard if you really want to announce it! "

After finishing speaking, Rudy Gonzalez turned and left with a cold face, looking like a master.

The remaining group of reporters looked at each other for a long time, and then someone asked tentatively, "I said...is he playing tricks on us?"

"Damn it! Of course he's playing tricks on us! Did you know that?"

"Who would believe such nonsense!"

"What a shit white-robed wizard, damn it, he's watched too much Lord of the Rings, right?!"

The reporters seemed to come alive together, shouting curses at the background of Rudy Gonzalez walking away.

As if he was really a white-robed wizard, Rudy Gonzalez, who was walking away, seemed to have heard the words of these reporters. He suddenly turned around and pointed at the group of reporters.

The reporter who was cursing suddenly shut up, as if he was really afraid of the magic of the white-robed wizard Rudy Gonzalez...
