Super Marshal

"To be honest, I have been working in Spanish football for so many years, and I have never seen someone as irresponsible as you!"

When Gao Han heard the doorbell and walked over to open the door, he saw Aragones coming in angrily from the outside, complaining in his mouth as he walked, looking full of grievances.

Heynckes and Bosque followed behind him, looking helplessly at Gao Han with sympathy.

"What's the matter? Did I make you angry?" Gao Han closed the door and asked with a playful smile.

Aragones turned around, blowing his beard and staring, "Are you still ashamed to ask me?"

"You know, I've always had a thick skin." Gao Han laughed.

Both Heynckes and Bosque couldn't help smiling, and even Aragones almost laughed out loud.

"You brat, with the title of a technical consultant and a salary from the Football Association, ended up traveling with his wife and disappearing for more than half a year. Are you sensible? Excuse me? If I swear in the newspaper, The spit of Spanish taxpayers can kill you."

After hearing this, Gao Han retorted, "No one in the world knows that I am the most greedy for money. Last year, Chelsea spent twice as much salary and failed to keep me. With the meager salary of your Spanish Football Association, you just want me to die. Sell ​​your life?"

"Hey, you..." Aragones was speechless.

There is no way, this kid is indeed the head coach with the highest annual salary in the world.

Even if a year has passed, no one has been able to break his record so far. Even Chelsea's new head coach, Mourinho, has an annual salary of only 4 million euros, which is only half of Gao Han's annual salary.

This has also become a major evidence that many media reporters used to make things difficult for the Portuguese madman.

Therefore, after Mourinho led Chelsea to win the championship this season, the first thing he did was to ask the management for a salary increase.

But no matter how much it is added, it is certainly impossible to reach Gao Han's 8 million euros, let alone the later 16 million euros.

As for Gao Han, the technical consultant of the Spanish Football Association, he is considered a freelance job. He comes to meetings when he is free on weekdays, and makes suggestions for Aragones and Spanish youth training.

After Aragones took over the Spanish national team, the first challenge was the World Cup qualifiers.

So far, the Spanish national team has played seven games. Spain has three wins and four draws. Although it remains unbeaten, the results are not satisfactory. After all, the opponents are not strong.

"Old man, I have watched all the game videos you sent me. Frankly speaking, this path is right. Keep going. The key is the selection of players. One is the striker and the other is the midfielder."

Gao Han's words hit the nail on the head, making Aragones nod again and again.

Now he admired his little friend more and more, and his vision was astonishingly unique.

"As for the strikers, frankly speaking, I also intend to support Torres and Villa, but there is a lot of pressure."

At present, Spain's main striker is the captain Raul. Needless to say, his qualifications, but his contribution to the national team, it is difficult for anyone to move him easily, even Aragones.

In this case, Aragones can only continue to adjust on the basis of traditional play.

For example, he tried 433 and 442 double forwards, but without exception, there were many problems.

"Joaquin and Vicente's double striker style seems to be very sharp, but in fact it makes the midfielder very weak."

Gao Han took Spain's one-to-zero victory over Lithuania's game formation map to analyze.

"Needless to say, the breakthrough ability of these two players on the wing is top in Europe, but the problem is that Albelda's partner Xavi in ​​the center is too thin, and the performance of Torres and Raul on the striker is not very ideal. "

After a pause, Gao Han took out another formation map.

"In the previous game against San Marino, the opponent was too weak, and Spain dominated the game. You also adopted a four-four-two formation, with Joaquin and Luke on the wing, and Xavi partnered with De La Pena in the midfield. Five to zero, but this style of play is more risky and very unstable."

After de la Pena moved to the Spaniard, his performance has improved a lot, but he, like Harvey, is a pass-and-control player, and his defensive ability is relatively average. The two played at the same time, and the Spanish midfielder has passed and controlled. , but the defense is weak.

Those present are all famous European coaches who have coached for many years, and it is easy to understand what Gao Han said.

The current problem for the Spanish national team is that it is difficult to make a breakthrough in the traditional style of play. If you want to make a difference, you have to make a big breakthrough and embrace the already mature Atletico Madrid's pass-and-control style of play.

But the question is, what about Raul? What about the wingers?

It is entirely conceivable that Aragones would be under too much pressure if he really did this.

This is not even the president of the Spanish Football Federation can afford.

Coaching a national team is completely different from coaching a club.

"In the past period of time, I have been thinking about why Rehhagel was able to lead Greece to win the championship last year? And what enlightenment and changes will Greece's victory bring to us?"

This series of questions about Alpine has also aroused the strong interest of Aragones and others.

As professional head coaches, they all ask themselves the same question.

"Finally, I am sure that in the face of a tight overall defensive formation, the ball-handling midfielder will gradually disappear, and the traditional winger will become less and less threatening. Instead, the positions and responsibilities of the players will gradually become blurred."

Gao Han's words brightened the eyes of all three present.

"You mean..." Heynckes realized something.

"It's like a winger. The traditional winger is to pass from the bottom, but the problem is that when you encounter the opponent's tight defensive formation, the opponent will not easily give you a one-on-one chance. You may be one-on-two. Got it?"

Gao Han answered without asking, "What should I do if I can't pass? Just like Ronaldinho or Zidane, first hold the ball, and then use the connection of the opponent's defense to create opportunities."

"Connection?" Bosque lost his voice in surprise.

"For example, full backs and central defenders, central defenders and defensive midfielders, no matter how close they are, there will be a connection. When our players enter the central defender's defense zone from the full back's defense zone, the opponent's defense will be very passive. Just follow the defense, the former is prone to coordination mistakes, and the latter is prone to lose position, this is an opportunity to attack!"

More and more teams are beginning to pay attention to the rib attack, which is a way to use the defensive connection to create offensive opportunities.

In the same way, if the distance between the central defender and the defensive midfielder can be widened, then long-range shots from the front of the penalty area are also an effective means of scoring.

"I understand what you mean." Aragones nodded repeatedly.

Gao Han meant that Spain's traditional winger style of play has become less and less suitable for the current development trend of football tactics, because it not only emphasizes the personal ability of the players, but it is also difficult to cover up the weakness of the Spanish midfielder's defense.

If Aragones wants to lead Spain to success, he must actively seek change.

"Hey, I found out that you said you were on vacation, but you really haven't been idle." Heynckes said with a smile.

Gao Han's remarks may seem simple, but behind it must have spent a lot of hard work and energy to think and summarize.

Just at this time, Lin Xia came out of the kitchen after cutting a plate of fruit, and said with a grin when he heard it: "He said he was on vacation, but where can he be free? The first thing he does when he arrives at a place is to find the team. games, or visiting those teams’ home courts, practices, whatever, I’m getting annoyed by him.”

Lin Xia's complaint made Gao Han feel embarrassed, but it was the truth.

He said he was playing, but in fact he still couldn't let it go.

On the contrary, Aragones had a rare chance to suppress Gao Han, so he immediately encouraged Lin Xia, "Others marry beautiful wives, and they hold them in the palm of their hands to take care of them. It's good for him, he is so ignorant, so he dumped him."

Gao Han listened so much that he almost kicked him over.

Just then, the doorbell rang again.

Lin Xia went to open the door, and it turned out to be everyone from the Chinatown team, as well as Cantarero, Sergio Garcia and others. When they heard that Gao Han was back, they all came to visit.

After a long absence, a group of people met again and shared similar interests, chatting more and more vigorously.

Later, Matayana, De La Morena, Torres and Villa also came, which made it even more lively.

Naturally, everyone was also concerned about Gao Han's situation.

"If there is no accident, I will coach Inter Milan." Gao Han did not hide, and directly stated his whereabouts.

Everyone is not surprised by this, because since April, even since last summer, the outside world has been rumored that Gao Han coached Inter Milan. Some Italian media even broke the news that the reason why Moratti renewed Zaccheroni's contract was that Just have to wait for the high cold.

Now, Gao Han's words can be regarded as confirming the rumors from the outside world.

"When was it confirmed?" Cantarero asked with concern.

"In April, after the first round of the knockout round of the Champions League quarter-finals." Gao Han replied, "I was traveling in Italy at the time, and I accepted Moratti's invitation to watch the game and also met with Facchetti and others. , At that time, I was basically determined to coach Inter Milan."

They all knew that Moratti was kind and punching.

Among other things, Moratti was able to wait for Gao Han for a year. This sincerity is enough to move people.

It is reasonable for Gao Han to reciprocate and choose Inter Milan.

"However, it's not easy to coach Inter Milan now." Aragones frowned.

Juventus and AC Milan are strong. One of these two teams is good at playing in domestic leagues, and the other is good at playing in European competitions. The strength of the team is outstanding, and it is very difficult for Inter Milan to break through, far exceeding the level of Gao Han who coached Chelsea.

You know, although there were Manchester United and Arsenal in the Premier League at that time, the turmoil in the former has not recovered, and the Gunners also have many problems. Unlike Juventus and AC Milan today, these two Serie A class bullies are quite strong. Difficult, with no glaring weaknesses.

"It's right that it's not easy." Gao Han said with a chuckle, "If it's easy, I don't like it very much."

When everyone heard Gao Han's confident words, they were quite moved.

Just this pride is enough to make countless people feel ashamed.

"People, always have to accept challenges. Serie A is the most challenging league in today's football. I am also very interested in giving it a try and seeing if it is true as those people said. I will fail in Serie A." Return with the halberd." After finishing speaking, Gao Han smiled proudly.

Serie A defeats La Liga. This kind of saying is not new. Gao Han’s pass control style has always been more afraid of Serie A. This is not surprising. Spain has been overwhelmed by Italy all the year round. This has also led many people to feel pessimistic about Gao Han coaching Serie A teams.

But Gao Han himself did not believe in this evil.

The more others said that, the more he wanted to give it a try.

What's more, he still has to complete the task of the champion collector!
