Chapter 275: Come, let's fight!

A black Fiat slowly parked at the door of the deep house in the middle of the mountain in the Naples Bay Area.

"I'm leaving, go back and be careful."

Gao Shen waved his hand towards Carlo in the driver's seat, and opened the door to get out of the car.

"High." Carlo hesitated and shouted.

Gao Shen turned his head and looked at him suspiciously.

"Don't put so much pressure on yourself, you've done enough." Carlo advised.

Gao Shen heard a snort, laughed, and waved his hand smartly, "I know, but it could be better!"

Carlo hesitated for a while, but finally said nothing.

After getting out of the car, Gao Shen watched Carlo drive away, and the smile on his face gradually faded.

Last night, Naples drew with Genoa at home. The team suffered a lot. After the resumption of training this morning, Gao Shen announced a day off to let everyone rest well and return to the team for training tomorrow afternoon.

He himself took the coaching staff out for a meal.

What everyone said to him the most was basically Carlo's words, so that he should not have too much pressure.

But how can there be no pressure?

A week later, Napoli will face Inter Milan!

To put it bluntly, this is the only team in Serie A that has the strength to challenge the Champions League.

Gao Shen is not that kind of stunner. He played in the Champions League when he coached Real Madrid, so he knows how difficult it is to play in the Champions League and how big the challenge is. It is a comprehensive test for any team.

Not to mention Naples and Juventus, even Rome, or even AC Milan, which has just won the Champions League, don't have this strength.

Only Inter Milan!

In fact, if you carefully analyze AC Milan's process of winning the Champions League last season, you can find that this championship is really dangerous.

Since the group stage, the Rossoneri have been stumbling and stumbling, facing Lille, Anderlecht and other teams, they did not gain much advantage, and even almost fell to Celtic in the round of 16 knockout.

After entering the quarter-finals, Kaka ushered in an explosion.

A group of old players are defending in the back, and Kaka is in the front. It can be said that Ancelotti's Christmas tree formation fully exerted Kaka's advantages and characteristics.

But to say the overall strength of the team, it is not as good as 2005!

AC Milan is still like this, and Rome is even worse.

The overall strength of Inter Milan is absolutely outstanding in Serie A. Even in the face of other strong teams in Europe, Inter Milan's strength is not inferior. The biggest weakness lies in the coach.

Mancini has the ability of the coach, and the charisma is also outstanding, but it is not enough to hold up a Champions League.

As Gao Shen said before, he has become Inter Milan's biggest shortcoming.

As a Serie A team, especially a team that has just been kicked off the Serie A leader's throne, how could Naples face Inter Milan without pressure?

...

After returning home, taking a shower, and going to bed, Gao Shen entered the tactical library.

After the time-travel, he read books in the library almost every night.

Tonight, he found Ferguson's book again and read it seriously.

Some people say that in the face of the particularly demanding job of a professional head coach, all head coaches will be influenced by the predecessors they admire, and they will have a benchmark in their hearts.

For example, Ancelotti mentioned to Gao Shen that his benchmark was Liedholm more than once.

England coach Keegan has repeatedly stressed that he has benefited a lot from Shankly and Paisley.

And if Gao Shen wants to find a benchmark for himself, there is basically only one, Ferguson!

Many people said for a while that Gao Shen was like Benitez, and then said that Gao Shen was Capello Doctrine, and now some people say that Gao Shen’s offensive football is like Bielsa…

Anyway, there are a lot of different sayings.

But only Gao Shen knows in his heart that he has been learning, learning from the strengths of others, and making up for his own shortcomings, which he actually learned from Ferguson.

Anyone who has come into contact with Ferguson knows that he is a manager with a solid football knowledge base, and he is happy to share his experience and knowledge with others.

The current Ligue 1 Bordeaux head coach and former French national team captain Laurent Blanc has said that he has traveled to Scotland many times to participate in Ferguson's coaching seminars.

At this kind of meeting, you can see many famous coaches from all over the world, such as Everton coach Moyes, and even the French coach Houllier, who once led Liverpool to win five championships, they are all rushing to Ferguson. of.

Ferguson also always unreservedly expounded some of his own coaching experience.

"A lot of what he said casually is common sense to him. For us, it is a valuable wealth summed up after the combination of theoretical knowledge and practical experience. Everyone will record it very seriously and study it carefully."

Although Gao Shen didn't go to Scotland to attend the seminar, he had seen it in the tactical library and had seen it more than everyone else, all of them, all complete.

Right now, for example, he's reading an article by Ferguson about club culture and the manager's personality.

Ferguson felt that he was not a leader in the traditional sense, but more of a shaper.

"I think it's the time that gave me the opportunity to influence the beliefs of others and give them confidence. My confidence and personality infected them. I often felt that my team reflected my own shadow and personality, and that Personality is what I've been looking for all my life."

Gao Shen repeatedly chewed some of Ferguson's words in the article, among which this sentence impressed him the most and touched him the most.

At first, he saw this text and decided to create a team of his own, engraved with his own brand, and instilled with his own personality, so he came to Naples.

Whenever he was faced with a difficult choice, he would take this text out and chew it over and over again.

Gradually, he was able to find his original intention in it.

...

"I'm going to fight a hard, hard battle in a way that I'm not sure about, but more dignified."

The next morning, Gao Shen sat in front of the computer and wrote such a sentence in his private space.

Then, he does nothing and waits.

After about ten minutes, an additional message appeared below:

For those who have self-confidence and don't mind temporary success or failure, there is no such thing as failure!

There is no such thing as failure for those who have a firm will and perseverance!

Let go of others, but he still insists; others retreat, but he still pushes forward, there is no such thing as failure!

For those who stand up immediately every time they fall, and who jump higher like a ball every time they fall, there is no such thing as failure!

Seeing Gao Shen, his eyes were slightly red, but a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.

Thanks!

he replied.

You are welcome!

She also responded quickly.

…………

"Everyone!"

In the training center of Fort Volturno, Gao Shen walked into the coach's office and shouted loudly.

Everyone's attention was immediately attracted to him.

"I decided it was going to be a tough fight, but we had to fight it, and it had to be a good fight!"

Hearing this, everyone in the coach's office suddenly became serious.

They all knew that Gao Shen had already made a decision.

It wasn't an easy decision, and it might even be one that he regretted.

"I know that Inter Milan is the strongest team in Italian football right now, no one; I also know that for now, we don't have much chance of winning against Inter Milan; I know even more that in San Diego On the pitch, they were waiting for us, to fight us to the death, with a victory to establish their position as the league leader."

This is the situation that Gao Shen is facing now.

"But we have no choice!" Gao Shen said firmly.

"This is a team that I and everyone have put so much effort into. I don't want our team, our group of players, to always have fear in our hearts. I want all of us to have firm belief, even if it is When the strength is not as good as the opponent's, the situation is not as good as the opponent's, we can't be afraid, we can't be afraid, but we must wave our fists bravely!"

"I'm going to fight against Inter Milan!" Gao Shen shouted out his decision forcefully, with a very firm tone.

It was a very bold, but also very risky decision.

Because the strength of Naples is indeed not as good as that of Inter Milan, and the situation is not as good as that of Inter Milan. If you want to win, you can only rely on hard work!

"I know that last season's 0-3 game did an immeasurable harm not only to me, but to everyone and our team. At this moment, you must be the same as me, and you can't help thinking about it. , What if it's a zero-to-three game again? Even, will it be a worse score than zero-to-three?"

"Really, I'm very worried, I've always been worried, and even the biggest question that bothers me has never been whether to play against Inter Milan, but I'm afraid of another zero-to-three, even more than zero-to-three. Terrible loss!"

Since his debut, Gao Shen has never lost a game that was worse than zero to three.

So he will be afraid, this is human nature.

Who is not afraid?

In 2009 and 2011, Ferguson's Manchester United faced Barcelona twice in the Champions League final. He knew before the game that his team would basically be unable to defeat the opponent, but he still chose his own personality and chose to play against Barcelona. , rather than a more sure-footed counterattack!

Ferguson at that time Wasn't he afraid?

Gao Shen is absolutely unbelievable.

And Guardiola, why in one or four years, before the Champions League semi-final match between Bayern and Real Madrid, he will listen to the opinions of the players and let them attack according to their own heart? The result was a 0-4 loss at the Allianz Arena?

Weakness is worse than failure!

"There are two ways to meet suffering, one is to be completely defeated, and the other is to become stronger!"

The deep voice drifted in the coach's office, resounding in the hearts of every coach.

"I'm going to tell Inter Milan and the world that we didn't get knocked down by that 0-3 game."

"Even after a 0-3 fiasco, even if we know clearly that we may still lose, or even lose badly, we still have to wave our fists bravely, because we are not afraid!"

"We are not afraid of losing! We are not afraid of them Inter Milan!"
