Chapter 2 A new look

Mourinho is here!

The prominent title of "Milan Sports" introduces readers to the Premier League champion coach Mourinho. He has a three-year contract with an annual salary of 9 million euros. Such an expensive coach in the history of AC Milan can be said to be unprecedented. Although AC Milan fans do not know how careful the Chairman was and has cheated Russian wealthy businessmen, they do not mind showing off the change of coaches to their neighbors in the same city. They seem to have seen the era when Inter Milan is the only one in the Serie A.

It makes sense for the fans of red and black to think this way. Inter Milan has dominated Serie A for several consecutive years, but the European battlefield has repeatedly hit a wall. Mancini's "foreign war layman" has also become one of the problems criticized by the Chinese. After all, the Champions League symbolizes the overall honor of the national club. Even Moratti privately signaled to Mancini that he should pay attention to the achievements of the European game. However, fate has always been joking with Mancini. It is not that Inter Milan does not work hard, but that the reality is too cruel.

Another person affected by this change of coach was another person - Shevchenko. Sheva never expected Mourinho to take over AC Milan, and he did not expect that he would have the opportunity to return to Italy on loan.

No! I don’t want to go back! I don’t want to play football under Mourinho! Shevchenko knew deeply that as long as the Portuguese was in power for one day, the chances of playing were almost zero.

Shevchenko solemnly and seriously rejected the former chairman's kind invitation to him. Instead of returning to Italy, it would be better to return to Ukraine. Mourinho was also happy that Sheva made such a decision. The older Ukrainian could not meet his omnipotent requirement for the striker.

Things were left unresolved. The summer transfer window opened, and coaches from major clubs began to recruit soldiers and prepare for the new season.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

On the streets of Chenyang, three young foreign men squeezed into the taxi. The young man sitting in the passenger seat said in standard Chinese: "Master, go to Zhongjie!"

The taxi driver was stunned. Oh, I'll go, this foreigner speaks Chinese well? He originally wanted to take a detour. It seems that there is no chance.

The one who took the bus was not someone else, but the players of the Belgian Olympic team - Vermalen, Van Denborre, and Fellaini. The three tall and strong men packed the taxi.

"We play the boss's team in the first game, do you want to keep some strength?" Van Denbore sat in the back seat and rubbed his hands excitedly, but he felt eager to try, but he didn't seem to be trying to keep some strength.

Vermullen turned back from the co-pilot: "Do you think Solid can beat the boss?"

Hearing this, Van Denbour grinned helplessly. Although no one on the football field dared to say that he was always winning, but thinking about how Yang's ability is at least half a team. Norwegian Solid - the former head coach of Bruges, Belgium and now the head coach of the Belgian national Olympic team, is a clear judgment against Yang.

Fellaini, who was combing an explosive head in the back seat, was a little puzzled, and he was also influenced by Mr. Yang. Now he is playing for Valleheim and hears all the legends about Mr. Yang. What kind of coach is this? Fellaini is very curious. He can lead Valleheim to the League Cup and lead Newcastle, who is not a giant, to reach the Champions League final. Such a coach is actually a Chinese?!

Nowadays, Valleheim has become another giant in Belgium due to the transfusion from the Lion Dance Football School. Some people say that if it continues to develop according to the current situation, Valleheim will become Ajax of Belgium.

Fellaini imagined that maybe after playing the Olympics and staying in Valleheim for another season, he should transfer to Europe. Is it the Premier League or Serie A? Or go to Spain? A faint smile appeared on the corner of Fellaini's mouth.

"Oh, now I think about it, I still feel that Tevez can actually kick the ball away when he lost the Champions League. Why do I think this guy did it on purpose?!" Van Denbore was still worried about that final.

"Okay, no one else's penalty kick." Vermallen waved impatiently. "Stop talking about this."

The car rushed all the way and arrived at the local area. The driver in the northeast was also quite poor, so he deliberately asked Vermalen to talk to: "Young man, come to China for a fight?"

"Play football! I know your Chinese coach, can it be cheaper?"

"ah?……"

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

"Dear viewers, this is the first game of Group C of CCTV Olympic men's football match, with the Chinese team vs. Belgium. Before the game, the players of both sides had friendly exchanges in the player channel. They were familiar with each other in European clubs, but this time fighting here was a different mood."

Mr. Yang looked in a good mood. The slim suit made him look less like a football coach, but more like a Japanese and Korean star. Time did not have much traces on his face, but it just added some maturity and stability.

"Oh!! So handsome!! So handsome!!" Among the cheering groups holding signs in the stands, there was a "Lion Guardian Group" composed of girls. All long-legged beauties of about 1.7 meters, wearing a silver lion shield-shaped badge. As the body danced, the badge shone in the sun. This group does not recruit male members at all, and the group must be reviewed by the twelve executive members. Such strict standards have made the members of this "Guardian Group" reach tens of thousands, and there are almost 3,000 people who come to the stadium to watch the game today.

The reporter's cameras were all cast here without exception. With the sound of the camera shutter clicking, there was also a group of male fans drooling and sucking.

Master Yang shook hands and talked a few words. The Norwegians obviously haven't forgotten the unpleasant memories of Belgium and are very perfunctory to Master Yang.

"Boss..." Vermalen and Van Denborre came over and hugged Master Yang.

"Oh, it's not your boss anymore, haha~" Mr. Yang smiled relaxedly and patted the two people on the shoulders. "Going well in the Premier League. Don't embarrass me, don't let the new head coach sell you."

"Don't worry."

"Hey, you two boys, can you put some water?" Mr. Yang asked in a humble manner.

Three black lines immediately appeared on Vermullen and Van Denbourre's heads - it's coming again. Is the boss's psychological warfare about to start now?

The two looked at each other, and understood it and turned their heads and ran into the stadium.

Damn, running so fast, can't we discuss it? Master Yang cursed in his heart, cleaned up the evil taste he had just played, and looked around. The vivid expressions of Chinese fans seemed to be right in front of him, and Master Yang's thoughts suddenly returned to Jinzhou several years ago, Wulihe several years ago, and Kuala Lumpur several years ago... Comedy and tragedy about the Chinese team are constantly being staged, and from today on, will there be a new look in his hands?!

The huge portrait of Mr. Yang was hung in the central stand, almost behind him, with portraits of 22 Chinese players on the left and right, as if silently witnessing everything in front of him.

As the players entered the court, cheers like tsunamis suddenly rang out. The game began.

According to China's national conditions, as usual, the Chinese Football Association Vice Chairman Wei Di sat on the rostrum. This fat middle-aged man turned out to be a water sportsman. His ex-boy, Xie Yalong, was also taken away by the police after Yang Yimin's incidents one after another. At this time, the Chinese people discovered that "sweeping gambling and fighting gangsters" were not just a saying. The Chinese Football Association changed from top to bottom, and young and middle-aged cadres with clean foundation and strong professional abilities were filled in. Mr. Yang's old acquaintance Li Guoao was also promoted to the liaison officer of the Chinese Football Association in the Asian Football Association.

But the national conditions are national conditions. Even if Master Yang’s influence is unmatched in China, it cannot change the sports system of the entire country. The final result of “anti-drug and crack down on gangsters” is better than “kill without mercy”, but it is still a very Chinese-style “lift up and let go”. Master Yang is not in a hurry to change anything. The system needs to be adjusted slowly. At least there have been some gratifying changes now. The country has invested more funds for youth sports and will gradually improve the leagues of all ages in the future. In China, a big country, these are not a one-day contribution. As long as the right time, place and people and in which system is not important, Italy has won the championship.

Since the national team gathered, there are several things that are unprecedented. One is that the national team's training base is not open to any leaders of the national sports organization, and does not accept inspections, visits, condolences, etc. The other is that no political mobilization and encouragement is carried out. These two things have been firmly implemented, and even the inspection of Liu Peng, director of the General Administration of Sports, was rejected by Mr. Yang. The third is that Mr. Yang organized the "wife group" of the Chinese team with unprecedented success, and the wives lived in a hotel with the players. Deng Zhuoxiang's Belgian girlfriend, Dong Fangzhuo's flight attendant girlfriend, and Feng Xiaoting's reporter girlfriend all became beautiful scenery. The previous national team training camp became avant-garde and fashionable.

A few simple things have a huge impact on the players. First of all, the players have no heavy psychological burden. Compared to the past, they repeatedly told the players to "don't be nervous and play with their style and level", the players only need to perform at the best level. From these things, the players also understand that Mr. Yang's absolute control over the team, training hard work, dietary rules, and words and deeds are all based on professional players. The last one is of course the most popular. If you have the closest distance from your family, no matter who comes, no matter who comes, you will give out 200% of the energy.

In the 33rd minute, Yu Dabao received Han Peng's header and scored a goal from the corner of the penalty area.

In the 44th minute, Belgium scored a goal. Kompany beat Rong Hao and scored a goal.

Amid the sighs of Chinese fans, the two sides ended the first half. Yang found that in addition to the Vermalen, Van Denborre and Fellaini he knew, Kompany on the Belgian back line and Dembele on the forward line were all very good players. This Belgian team is really hard to deal with.

Mr. Yang gently pressed his temples. The Chinese team's defense line is still a bit flawed. The shortcomings lie in experience. The environment and conditions of Chinese players studying abroad are much better than their predecessors, but two-thirds of them are just rotating players and cannot become the main players. This is the gap. Players like Dembele have played more than 70 games for Alkmaar in three seasons, far exceeding their peers in experience. Perhaps this is what they call the foundation.

During the halftime break, Mr. Yang re-emphasized the defense and the focus on the offensive core, and did not make too many adjustments. The tactics are not omnipotent. Just like playing in the live game, choosing the Chinese team is purely to show off how high his level is. Mr. Yang turned on his own HARD mode.
