Chapter 624 A Starter with Many Goals!
Chapter 624 The starter with more goals!
People didn't take Gao Bo's words seriously.
When a new coach takes office, it is normal to talk big and draw big cakes.
Even Manchester City won the Premier League title is not impossible, after all, their investment is here.
But the Champions League?
It's really not easy. Manchester City doesn't have much experience in the Champions League, and they were eliminated from the group stage last season.
This season, with so many players changing, it has to be run in and out.
Moreover, the competition in the Premier League is so fierce and the intensity of the game is so strong, which will also affect the performance of Premier League teams in the Champions League to a certain extent.
Is it a bit too arrogant to want to win the championship just after coming here, but also to attack across the board?
The Premier League is not so easy to mix!
Don't make it to the end that Manchester City is empty again...
Therefore, many reporters are holding back their strength, watching Manchester City attack across the board, and after the final collapse, they come out to laugh at Gao Bo. ,,
......
Gao Bo actually knows that this season's Manchester City is still mainly about running in new tactics, which will definitely go through some ups and downs. In the end, it is a success to win the Premier League championship. As for the Champions League, it is not only strength, but also luck. very important.
Therefore, it is really difficult for Manchester City to win the league plus the Champions League double, especially with so many players changed this season.
But Gao Bo didn't care. He said this sentence not to reporters and media, but to his players.
If you take it from the top, you will get it; if you take it from the bottom, you will get it below; if you take it from the bottom, you will get nothing.
What Confucius said is still very reasonable.
Set a higher goal, even if you don't reach your goal in the end, it won't be too bad!
As for the crash?
Gao Bo is still very confident in his control. As long as he is there, it is impossible for him to collapse!
......
After the press conference, Manchester City also held a fan meeting ceremony.
Manchester City fans are very enthusiastic!
At the Etihad Stadium, around 30,000 fans came to the scene, and when the eight new players appeared collectively on the pitch, the Manchester City fans on the scene welcomed them with cheers and applause.
The fans of Manchester City are all suffocating. In recent years, Manchester City has invested heavily, but nothing has been achieved.
This made Manchester City almost the object of ridicule in England.
When people mention Manchester City, they always talk about "upstarts", "mercenaries" and the like.
This makes Manchester City fans feel a little bit can't lift their heads.
And this season, with a champion coach, Manchester City always have something to gain this season, right?
In the end, none of the players kicked ten footballs signed by them to the stands, giving back to the fans.
After the new players meeting, Gao Bo said to the players: "Everyone has worked hard, now you can go on vacation, July 15th! I will wait for you at the City Football Academy! The ugly words are over, don't forget this holiday. So much fun, when the new season comes, if your body is not ready, then be prepared to spend some time on the bench, or simply go to the reserve team!! I am a man of words, I Take everything you say seriously, so...don't think I'm joking!"
"Now, let's disband! I wish you a happy holiday!"
After Gao Bo finished speaking, he left, leaving a group of players who did not understand Gao Bo to look at each other.
He said so, does anyone else "have a good time"?
Everyone wants to make a good impression on the new coach.
......
On July 15th, after a relatively long offseason, the players assembled at the training facility.
After the first day of physical examination, Gao Bo team's physical examination results were still very satisfactory.
During this holiday, the physical condition of the players did not drop too much, and they could be completely adjusted after a few days of recovery training.
This shows that during this holiday, not many players are eating and drinking.
The team's captain, Kompany, led new and old players to meet each other.
Manchester City's players are basically bought from outside, so there are no locker room gangs for the time being, at most some small gangs, but new players integrate quickly.
Then everyone started talking about the team's new head coach.
After winning the Champions League, Gao Bo is undoubtedly one of the biggest head coaches in Europe. Of course, Manchester City players also dare not be arrogant in front of Gao Bo.
The current Manchester City players are just a group of players who are very famous but have not won anything. In terms of the number of honors, the gap between them and Gao Bo is too great.
After Gao Bo led his team into the training base, all the players looked at him with reverence.
You don't need to introduce yourself, everyone knows who he is.
But Gao Bo still felt the need to introduce himself.
This is his tradition, and he believes that every time he goes to a team, it is necessary to introduce himself according to the tradition, like a lion announcing his territory.
"My name is Gao Bo, and from today, I will be your head coach! You will train and play under my leadership, and I will lead you to victory! In my team, what I need is to do my best. player of!!"
Gao Bo held his head high and looked at his players.
The players also looked at the new coach with respect.
As the saying goes, changing coaches is like changing knives.
Every player wants to perform well in front of the new coach so that he can get more chances to play.
Therefore, in the stadium now, it is a harmonious scene of harmony between the generals.
What broke this harmony was a sudden burst of game music.
Gao Bo is very familiar with this music - it is the background sound of Super Mario.
He frowned, and all the Manchester City players looked at each other in dismay. Soon, they saw a big black man hurriedly stuffing the PSP into the elastic band of his shorts.
Balotelli smiled awkwardly when he saw everyone looking at him.
He's a very unfocused guy, so while everyone was waiting for a new coach, he couldn't help but play the console.
And when the coach was talking, Balotelli, who was hiding in the last game, was not noticed until he accidentally released the sound of the game console...
Gao Bo darkened his face and walked to Balotelli's side.
He has some regrets about leaving Balotelli now, which is really not a normal guy.
Where are the players playing consoles on the training ground on the first day of the season! !
"bring here!!"
Gao Bo said with a dark face, although Balotelli's brain is short-circuited, he is like a bad student in those classes. When facing the teacher, he is still quite afraid.
So he handed the game console into Gao Bo's hands.
And Gao Bo was thinking about how to repair Balotelli at this time.
On the first day here, if you don't establish some prestige, how will you manage the team in the future.
"Patrick!" Gao Bo turned around and said.
French football legend Vieira also joined Gao Bo's coaching staff, but he has served in Manchester City's management since 2011. Today Vieira is the coach of the coaching staff in charge of youth training and reserve teams.
"He's yours now!!"
Gao Bo announced.
Vieira smiled wryly, the reserves are where most first-team coaches use to punish players, like a garbage shelter. …
But Balotelli is not rubbish, he doesn't want to go to the reserve team!
"Wait!! Coach!! Coach, I don't want to go to the reserves!!!"
Balotelli shouted, almost kneeling for Gao Bo.
This guy also knows that after going to the reserve team, I am afraid it will be difficult to return to the first team.
Gao Bo looked at Balotelli with a funny look on his face, and Balotelli smiled hurriedly and kindly, then swore: "I promise not to play game consoles during training, I promise!!!"
"That's not enough, Mario." Gao Bo shook his head, "It doesn't affect the team if you go to the reserve team. Maybe the team's strength has improved."
"Who said that, I'm Mario Balotelli!!" Balotelli patted his chest and said, "I'm very good, coach. If you don't believe me, you start my first league game, and I promise to score one. ....ah no, two goals!!"
Balotelli stretched out two fingers.
"Don't play your cleverness, why should I start you? I have two forwards, Edin and Jamie." Gao Bo pointed at Vardy and Dzeko, waved his hand and said: "I can't use you, you should prepare Team wait."
"I scored more goals than them!!! That means I'm better than them!!"
Balotelli shouted that he had not given up.
And Vardy and Dzeko quit immediately: "Hey, Mario! Do you have the face to say that?"
"That's right, otherwise we'll compare!!"
Anyway, Balotelli knows that he must not go to the reserve team, otherwise... How can the young Polish model who he just hooked up with believe that he is the main striker of Manchester City? The main striker of the reserve team?
Balotelli thought.
And Gao Bo was bright.
To be honest, there are David Silva and Eriksen in midfield, Griezmann and Hazard on both sides.
Manchester City have no shortage of offensive creativity and attacking power. Hazard and Griezmann can definitely attract most of the defense on both sides. At the same time, their breakthrough and offensive ability can also create a lot of shooting opportunities in the penalty area.
Therefore, the requirements of the high wave striker are not high.
Seize the opportunity and shoot well!
He doesn't need the center to retreat, play the ball, etc. In his tactical system, the center has two roles. When defending, he is responsible for pressing the opponent's center back in the frontcourt, and when scoring a goal, he takes the ball in the penalty area and shoots!
These two tasks, whether it is Dzeko or Vardy, believe that they can be done well.
In Gao Bo's plan, Balotelli was just sitting on the bench. When the team couldn't open the situation, sending a nerve knife like Balotelli might have a miraculous effect.
However, it would not be a bad thing to make Balotelli become more active under the competition. Just now, Balotelli's swearing oath apparently convinced Gao Bo that Balotelli was frightened by the prospect of going to the reserve team, so some prodigals turned back.
Gao Bo never imagined that if he didn't think about the Polish chick, how could Balotelli be so eager.
Gao Bo, who was kept in the dark, gave Balotelli a chance.
He announced that in the team's five warm-up games before the start of the season, Vardy and Dzeko will start two, while Balotelli will only start one.
Although this seems unfair to Balotelli, Gao Bo made it clear to him that this is a punishment for Balotelli's actions just now, and he only has one chance if his goals are ranked among the three center forwards At the end of the day, he still has to go to the reserve team for a walk.
The striker who scored more goals in the five warm-up games will be awarded the starting position in the first round of the season! !
When Gao Bo announced the rule, a rivalry sparked between Vardy and Dzeko.
In the eyes of the two, Balotelli, who has only one chance to play, has been out, and the starting position in the first leg of the league is the competition between the two of them.
If you are a starter in the first leg of the league, if you perform well, you are likely to directly secure the position of the main striker!
So there seems to be an electric current in the air between Vardy and Dzeko.
Gao Bo has three centers, and he doesn't mind that the competition between centers is more intense! 8) For more wonderful novels, welcome to visit our school
