The current coach of Lyon is Alan Perrin, 51 years old. He used to be a professional player, but until he was 20 years old, his football skills still did not improve. He had to leave the Nancy team he played for and join a local amateur team.
Afterwards, Perrin did not return to Nancy Team until 1983 and became a member of Nancy Team B.
Although he failed to be a professional player, Perrin still insisted on his football dream. Before retiring, 35-year-old Wenger took office as the head coach of Nancy. Perrin began to learn how to be a coach with Wenger, and soon showed the potential of an excellent young coach.
The Nancy Club of course also noticed the changes in the youth and quickly arranged for Perrin to take charge of the club's football school as a player and coach.
After officially retiring, Alan Perlan became the echelon coach of Nancy and began his coaching career.
He started from the lowest league and took over the hometown team Troyes, who was in the C League, and led Troyes to skip two levels to advance to Ligue 1 in a few years. Then he led Troyes to relegation as the 14th place in the league and gradually gained fame in the French football world.
In the following two seasons, Troyes gradually gained a foothold in the Ligue 1, qualifying for the European Toto Cup for two consecutive seasons, and performed well in the European arena, and had a masterpiece of eliminating Newcastle United to advance to the second round of the UEFA Cup.
In 2002, Perrin's head coaching career gradually became brilliant. He took over the Ligue 1 Marseille. In a year, he returned the results to the club as the third place in the Ligue 1 and the qualification to participate in the Champions League. During this period, Perrin dug the 25-year-old Drogba from Guinggang with a transfer fee of only 3.3 million pounds (a year later, Chelsea paid a transfer fee of 24 million pounds for Drogba, setting a Marseille record).
The two years 2004 and 2005 were two years of low tide in Perrin’s life journey.
After leaving Marseille sadly, Perrin took over the UAE Al Ain team. However, the cooperation lasted only three months (4 games in total). The next year, the Premier League Portsmouth, who was in a hurry, came to the door and appointed Perrin as the firefighting coach.
Although Perrin completed the relegation task of Portsmouth, he really couldn't make it with 2 wins, 4 draws and 7 losses after the 2005-2006 season.
So Perrin became the first Premier League head coach to be dismissed that season.
Last summer, Perrin began to take charge of the Ligue 1 Socho team, and was familiar with the small and medium ball clubs to help him successfully win the seventh place last season. Perrin himself valued very much in the 2007 French Cup championship. Because he defeated the Marseille team that swept him out in the final.
Just after successfully revenge on the Marseille team, this summer, Perrin received an invitation from the French Ligue 1 giants Lyon and officially took over the coaching stick of Lyon.
Although in the eyes of many Lyon fans, Perrin can only be regarded as Lyon's "interim coach", he still hopes to lead Lyon to a good result.
What are good grades?
Of course, it's the league champion!
At the same time, in the Champions League, Perrin also wanted to win some things. In the Champions League group draw, Lyon was assigned to the e group, and the e group is a very good group. The two teams except Manchester City cannot pose too much threat to Lyon, so Perrin has already aimed at the top of the group.
This away match with Manchester City is the beginning.
Alan Perrin played against Wan Sheng. At that time, he coached Portsmouth, which was quite different from Manchester City, but he still led Portsmouth and scored a record of one win and one loss with Manchester City.
This gave Perrin a lot of confidence.
Now leading Lyon, a strong team with a large number in Europe, will no longer lose to Manchester City, which is a win-winning one.
That's what Perrin thinks.
In Perrin's vision, Lyon will win the first place in the group, and Manchester City can only be second, of course. The premise is that they are lucky and do not easily lose to Stuttgart or Glansgow Wanderers.
When Perrin learned that Manchester City drew with Blackburn and drew with Aston Villa at home. After suffering two league rounds of defeat, he became more determined in his ideas.
In addition, Lyon's strong strength is also supported by Perrin's confidence. Juninho, Tulalan, Govu, Benzema, all the stars are in Lyon's team. Lyon has a gorgeous midfielder and the forward efficiency that can be ranked first in Europe.
The coach Santini left the club because he became the head coach of the French team. He left Perrin with a strong and complete lineup. After Perrin took over the team, he also did a lot of things. The first thing is to stabilize the team's tactical system and allow the new players to adapt to the team's inherent system.
Later during the preparations, he focused on defense.
Perrin does not oppose utilitarian football. He believes that the most important thing for a team is its results. After he took office, he emphasized to the team that "while adhering to our style, we must make targeted changes to our opponents in every game."
This is what he learned from Wansheng.
Wan Sheng often makes some adjustments to the tactics in the game, and when defense is the best choice, he will choose defense, and when he wants to attack in large quantities, he will let the team fight.
Now that he wants to face Manchester City in the Champions League, Perrin feels that he knows himself and his opponents, and then he feels that as the team with the most hope of winning the first place in the group, his popularity should not be suppressed by Manchester City.
So Perrin took the initiative to provoke a war of words.
When a British reporter interviewed Lyon's preparations for the Champions League, Perrin said, "I'm looking forward to the first game against Manchester City, and so are my players."
"I know Manchester City very well, but Manchester City doesn't know us. This is our advantage! My players and I are confident of winning the game!"
When Perrin said this, he had a faint smile on his face and looked full of confidence.
French media were also infected by Perrin. They focused on describing Perrin's confidence in the press releases and set up a wonderful prospect for Lyon in the Champions League for French fans.
"French Football" commented, "Perrin's confidence is a positive signal. This at least shows that Lyon is well prepared for the fight with Manchester City!"
"This season, Lyon is indeed very strong, has a complete lineup, mature tactics, and has performed very strongly in the league."
After analyzing Lyon's strength, "French Football" also made a little worried, that is, his concern about Perrin's coaching ability. After all, to be honest, Perrin is just Lyon's "temporary coach". If he could find other bigger brands, it would definitely not be his turn to coach Lyon.
"…The only thing to worry about is that Perrin doesn't have much experience in leading the team to the Champions League. We hope he can do a good job and lead Lyon to a nearer breakthrough, but now we need to keep a sensible attitude."
Wan Sheng was in no mood to pay attention to the "war of words" initiated by Perrin, because fighting a war of words with Lyon was meaningless. In fact, Lyon did not keep it in his heart at all.
This French team is good, but compared with Manchester City, there is still some gap. What's more, the game was played at Manchester Stadium, and he can't understand why the opponent has such great confidence?
When a reporter said this, Wan Sheng replied ridiculously, "Isn't that guy sick?"
Then I didn't say much.
This sentence had a huge blow to Perrin, Lyon and French fans. When they shouted slogans, the other party was completely distracted, and the expression of complete contempt was revealed.
They were all very angry and were even more prepared to go to Manchester to teach Manchester City a lesson.
Wan Sheng no longer pays attention to this, but is just focused on leading the team to prepare for the battle.
At the same time, some changes have occurred in China's domestic public opinion because of what Wan Sheng said in the interview.
At that time, the interviewer of Wan Sheng was a reporter from "Xinlang Sports". What Wan Sheng said that night was spread to China and was listed on the homepage of "Xinlang Sports".
"Xinlang Sports" is still very influential in domestic sports media. When they release news, many fans will see it.
After reading the original words Wan Sheng said in an interview, many people immediately expressed their support for Wan Sheng.
The most important thing is what Wan Sheng said, which is indeed very reasonable.
There are more than China in East Asia teams. South Korea and Japan have higher world rankings and better record. However, their national teams will not consider recruiting European players when playing ordinary games. After all, international matches are only a few days, and Europe is too far from East Asia. It takes more than 8 hours to take a plane. Then the time difference is reversed, and the condition cannot be guaranteed at all.
In the just-passed warm-up match between China and Oman, Sun Jihai and Wang Xiaolei were not on the roster, and the two of them did not get a minute of playing time together. In other words, their trip back to China was completely in vain.
Thinking of this, you can know why Wan Sheng, as the head coach of Manchester City club, is angry with the Chinese national team.
When fans understood these, the domestic public opinion situation immediately tilted a lot towards Wansheng.
However, some people don’t want Wansheng to have a good time!
Wan Sheng's words point directly to the Chinese national team, and most people in the country know that Chinese team coach Folado Petrovic is like a puppet and has no right to recruit players at all. In other words, what Wan Sheng said directly to the Chinese Football Association, which has the right to recruit players.
As the top management leader of the Chinese Football Association, Xie Yilong became very angry when he learned what Wan Sheng said.
Xie Yilong felt that his rights and status had been seriously provoked.
No player or coach in China dares to compete with the Football Association. Even if the other party is a famous head coach in Europe, he is also a Chinese coach.
In Xie Yilong's view, as long as he is a Chinese coach, he should be under the jurisdiction of the Chinese Football Association.
The Chinese Football Association has no right to order Wan Sheng to do anything, but he can use his relationship to put the other party at a disadvantage in public opinion, and let all players and coaches see the outcome of the opposition to the Football Association, or he himself!
