Super Marshal

Even in the morning of the next day, when Gao Han recalled this incident on the way to the Carrington training base, he still felt lingering fear and it was always difficult to feel relieved.

This is really in line with the saying of our ancestors: a common man is not guilty, but he is guilty of carrying a jade.

The Chinatown team is now guilty of carrying a jade.

There have only been three rounds of La Liga this season so far, and in the first three rounds, the Chinatown team has shown quite good competitiveness. First, they defeated Espanyol 1-0 at home in the first round of the league, and then Another away game was a 3-0 win over Sales, also a newly promoted team.

But it was in the third round of La Liga that the Chinatown team really showed its recognized strength, defeating the visiting Villarreal 3-2 at home. Pochettino's team relied on French power in the first half. Erkao scored twice and took the lead with two goals.

In the second half, despite Villarreal's aggressive counterattack, the Chinatown team still withstood the pressure and eventually won 3-1.

With three consecutive wins, only four teams in La Liga have made such a good start this season. In addition to the Chinatown team, Real Madrid, Barcelona and Athletic Bilbao.

But as a newly promoted team, Chinatown’s performance is really impressive, especially when they played Villarreal in the third round. Chinatown’s performance throughout the game was no less impressive than Villarreal. overall strength.

This has also caused the entire Spanish media to say that the Chinatown team is bound to become a dark horse in La Liga this season.

Ranked third in the La Liga rankings, the Chinatown team is shining brightly, and many players on the team have also become famous.

For example, the main forward Falcao has scored seven goals for the Chinatown team this season. He has contributed five by himself, and there is no penalty kick. This allows him to surpass Villa and Messi who have scored four goals. Stars such as Torres and Ibrahimovic, who scored three goals, top the La Liga scorer list.

Also eye-catching is the Argentinian player Otamendi, who has been firmly established as the main central defender since his arrival. This player also relied on his outstanding performance in the Chinatown team to continue to be selected for the Argentine national team, and his voice for participating in the World Cup is extremely high.

Carvajal and Alba have also become famous in Spain. Both of them have been selected for the Spanish national team, especially Alba. He even has the ability to serve as the main left back and has won many giant clubs including Barcelona. The team's attention.

Midfielder Ramirez has matured quickly after being tempered last season. He has performed very bravely and brilliantly in La Liga this season, with both offense and defense, and has also received the attention of many teams.

Also receiving attention is goalkeeper De Gea.

In the first round of the league, the Chinatown team was able to withstand the pressure and beat the visiting Spaniards 1-0. De Gea's high block and low pass on the goal line was indispensable. It was in that game that the Spaniard The goalkeeper became famous in one battle, and coupled with the halo appointed by Gao Han, De Gea has the potential to become a new generation of Spanish goalkeepers.

After playing against Sarres, he continued to keep a clean sheet against Villarreal. Although he conceded two goals, De Gea performed very well, especially in the second half. Without De Gea's outstanding performance, the Chinatown team would have lost two goals. There is no way to defeat your opponent.

The three-game winning streak has certainly made the Chinatown team's performance quite impressive, with many players on the team performing very well, but it has also brought a lot of trouble to the Chinatown team, such as poaching from wealthy teams.

In fact, players such as Falcao and De Gea have received a lot of poaching as early as last season, but most of them were from mid-to-lower teams. After all, they are still young and have not proven themselves in the top league. Neither himself nor the wealthy teams are willing to take action in this situation.

They would rather spend more money in the future than take risks.

Under this situation, the Chinatown team can barely retain people, but if the performance of this season continues, then Gao Han will have to think about a question, what will happen if the team cannot retain people?

What Atletico Madrid experienced in the early years will definitely happen to the Chinatown team next.

Last night, Ferguson's poaching of De Gea was just a joke, and Gao Han could laugh it off, but if Manchester United really wants to take action, if other teams want to take action, can Gao Han stop it?

De Gea is still young and may be okay, but what about others like Falcao?

People go to higher places and water flows to lower places. Some things are simply inevitable.

"Guys, our most difficult test to start the new season is behind us."

On the morning after the game and before the training session, Gao Han lectured all the players on the training ground.

"I'm happy that we finally withstood the pressure and won five games in a row at the start."

This is almost Manchester City's best start to the league in recent years.

After hearing Gao Han's words, all the players laughed and seemed to be in a good mood.

"I know that each of you has paid a lot for the team. You have all worked very hard. Five consecutive wins is the best reward for you all. But at the same time, here, I must also remind you that there are three games in total in the league. Eighteen rounds.”

Gao Han's reminder made the players who were originally smiling stop smiling and become serious.

Yes, the league is a very long period of time, up to ten months, which is a huge test for every player.

How to maintain this competitive state for such a long time?

This is a very serious question.

Manchester City's start was indeed difficult. They played against Blackburn away from home and faced Arsenal and Manchester United in two consecutive rounds. They were all hard battles, especially the last game against Manchester United. Everyone in the team tried their best.

Being able to escape from the Old Trafford Stadium unscathed should be credited to everyone in the team.

"What I want to tell you is that this is far from the best Manchester City in my mind. I have higher expectations for you than now, because each of you is personally selected by me. How old are you?" I am very clear about your potential and strength, so I am very, very sure that you can perform better and better than you are now, and better than ever before."

Every player couldn't help but feel excited after hearing Gao Han's words.

Gao Han's piercing eyes are legendary in European football. All the players he selected eventually showed outstanding performance and became famous stars or even superstars, even if they had been unknown before.

Being a player is a profession, but everyone aspires to be at the top of the professional pyramid.

And Gao Han's words, combined with his personal aura and reputation, undoubtedly gave everyone an expectation, telling them that they can perform better than now, better than in the past, and better than ever.

"What I also want to tell everyone is that it is a pity that we cannot participate in European competitions this season. I believe that all European giants will be grateful for this, because they will lose at least two fewer games."

Gao Han shouted such words with such confidence that all the players present couldn't help laughing.

But no one would doubt Gao Han's confidence in saying this.

In fact, in this season's European competition, many teams, even wealthy teams, are secretly rejoicing.

The cold Manchester City missed the Champions League, so they have a chance to win the championship, right?

"But also because we have missed the European stage, my request to you is very simple. Treat every league game and every domestic cup match as a Champions League match and be fully prepared, because we will play in the next season. Once we reach the Champions League, no team can stop us."

The head coach's bold words made everyone present very excited.

The Champions League, or even the Champions League final, is an elusive dream for countless professional players.

If it were anyone else who made such a wish to them, they would undoubtedly be ridiculed, but Gao Han would not, because he has won three Champions Leagues in nine years since his debut.

It can be said that Gao Han won the championship trophy softly.

Even in the eyes of all players and fans around the world, the probability of winning the Champions League for a cold team is far higher than that of those wealthy teams, even super wealthy teams like Barcelona and Real Madrid.

With Gao Han's identity and status, saying such words will only boost morale and inspire people.

"Finally, I have one more announcement to make."

Gao Han turned and pointed behind him. In the distant treatment room, Kaká was walking to the training ground accompanied by team doctor David Feifre.

Everyone was very excited when they saw this scene.

"Starting today, Kaka will officially return to the team and participate in the team's training." Gao Han announced this important news with a smile.

Wait a minute, Manchester City will also hold a press conference to officially announce the return of Kaká.

It has been more than two months since his surgery. Kaká has been recovering according to Wolfart's plan. Now he is back training with the team, but he is not yet able to participate in joint training because he is not yet able to perform high-intensity training. , can only be trained alone.

However, this is already considerable progress.

After more than two months of absence and returning to the training ground, Kaka has undoubtedly taken another step towards his comeback.

Gao Han specially held a long discussion with Wolfat and David Feifrey to study Kaka's recovery situation, and even believed that the club could give Kaka more recovery time if necessary.

However, according to the feedback from Wolfat, Kaká has had enough rest time, his recovery is also very good, the progress is very smooth, and he can participate in training appropriately, but it is not suitable for high-intensity training yet.

According to the plan of Wolfart and David Favre, Kaká should conduct low-intensity training first, and then gradually increase the amount after adapting to it, and finally reach the level allowed by the game.

Preliminary estimates suggest that Kaka's official comeback should be in early November, but the specific time for his comeback has not yet been determined, and by then Kaka is likely to appear as a substitute first, and then gradually increase his playing time.

Gao Han took great pity on his beloved disciple and protected him meticulously.

He definitely didn't want Kaka to end up injured and stop playing after spending so long undergoing surgery.

Not only Gao Han, but other players are also very concerned about Kaka's injury. They are all very happy to see the Brazilian superstar returning from injury and officially participating in the team's training.

They have always been looking forward to the joint performance of Kaká and Cristiano Ronaldo, together with David Silva, Modric, Benzema and Sanchez, to form Manchester City's powerful attack. line-up.

Players, fans, management, and even Gao Han and the coaching staff are also full of expectations for this.

Everyone firmly believes that Manchester City will be invincible at that time!

And Kaka's return to the team is undoubtedly a solid step!
