Chapter 47: Treated as a fish belly

As the season begins day by day, the atmosphere of Monaco training is gradually becoming solemn. Although Zhang Mu is very clear about the future of these young players, they themselves do not have much confidence. When they are about to appear on the Ligue 1 stage, they even feel that reality is a bit illusory.

However, Zhang Mu didn't know what they thought. Although he was also a young man, his natural resolute character would never take these things to heart, but would only care about how to show his strength.

And even if he knew the ideas of several young players, he would not have any action, after all, he was a coach rather than a nanny.

The training situation is very good. As long as you build confidence in a few warm-up matches, I believe that these young players will undergo different degrees of transformation in the competitive and spiritual levels, and at that time, they will be able to stand alone.

At that time, the whole world would understand what kind of good cards Zhang Mu brought to Monaco.

Therefore, the first thing Zhang Mu has to deal with is the two pre-season warm-up matches in front of him, one away challenge to Marseille and the other home match against the Serie A strong team Roma.

The warm-up match with Marseille was decided early. As two teams with good relationships in Ligue 1, they can be said to have won the best friendly matches before the game, so needless to say.

However, the game with Roma is not so harmonious. It is obvious that Roma regards Monaco, which looks old, weak, sick and disabled, as a stepping stone to build confidence, hoping to help the team achieve a good sign in the new season through the big score God of War Monaco.

Monaco was underestimated.

Monaco was regarded as a bad opponent.

Zhang Mu was so angry that he laughed when he thought of this.

OK, Roma, let me see how good you, the Serie A team, are.

Zhang Mu is very clear about how much combat effectiveness the Serie A champion two seasons ago has left. Roma, who has suffered serious personnel loss this season, performed positively and depressed in the league. At the end of the season, he was only ranked eighth in the standings, and even failed to get the qualification for the League Cup.

Although there are still several big-name stars in the team, Zhang Mu does not think that such a Rome team can treat Monaco as an opponent to build confidence.

Wait, Rome.

Zhang Mu vowed to win the opponent at home, not for anything else, but to help the team find confidence in a strong opponent.

I hope that the Rome team with the same purpose at that time can withstand such a blow.

Of course, Zhang Mu will not be blindly arrogant. After all, Serie A is still ranked first among the five major leagues, and the defense of Serie A teams is simply a headache for the world. With the immature Monaco who has not fully adapted to form combat power, it may not be able to win head-on. Therefore, Zhang Mu has to rely on his own restrictive thinking to decide the outcome.

The team's current training effect is very obvious. Running without the ball has begun to show results. With this system as the foundation, the team's passing and controlling balls have improved by not supporting the same level. Even Ligue 1, which is focusing on technology, can rank at the forefront and continue to improve.

This is only Zhang Mu's first step and foundation. In his opinion, the team's most sharp method should be the wing attack, and put a few world-class wing players in the team. If Zhang Mu doesn't know how to use it, it will be a waste of resources.

In fact, Monaco's current pass-and-control tactics are somewhat similar to the Russian team's playing style that shines in the European Cup in 2008. The pass-and-control tactics are simple and fast, and the offense is fast through the midfield to threaten the opponent's goal.

But it is not exactly the same. At that time, the Russian team had an excellent avant-garde like Tsar Arshavin, and the offense started more from the middle.

However, Zhang Mu's Monaco is more impactful than the Russian team, because Monaco's main attack direction is on the wing.

In addition, the team is also stronger than Russia in the organization and scheduling of the midfield. Although Hillens is young, he has already shown his style as a general. He can sort out Monaco's midfield in an orderly manner, and the timing of controlling the rhythm is gradually improving. He is moving towards a world-class midfield master.

The overall tactics have been formed, and the rest is to slowly craft the details. This is also a major project, and it is a long-lasting flow.

In fact, the grouping of the daily confrontation matches is disrupted. Zhang Mu did not fix the main lineup in his mind, which also allows the players to become more familiar with other teammates.

However, the players already have a rough understanding of the main lineup in their hearts, such as Adebayo and Hillens, which are the targets Zhang Mu is focusing on in training.

In addition, Zhang Mu emphasized the attack on the wing during training, so the two powerful players, Roten and Jiuli, must also occupy the main position.

Two unfamous full-backs Maicon and Evra also became direct beneficiaries, but their performance is indeed very commendable.

However, although the players who knew that they would not become the main player had some regrets, they did not have too much resentment, because at least Zhang Mu's attitude in training was the same, and if he was in good condition in training, he would not have no chance to grab the shift and seize power.

This kind of conscience competition is what Zhang Mu hopes to see inside, and he does not want conflicts in the locker room under his control.

He can be said to have witnessed the conflict in the locker room countless times in his previous life. Those who demand a salary increase, those who demand a main position, and even those who have conflicts with the coach. In short, it is not the same, but the final result is similar, and the team is damaged. Zhang Mu does not want the team to have such a situation.

Fortunately, there are many young players in the team. They won’t ask too much when they are not famous, and they won’t completely refrigerate them, so there is little chance of a locker room conflict this season.

But people are unpredictable. If Monaco really scores this season, will the players start to become arrogant and ask for more things? If they can't give it to themselves, then the situation may really be out of control.

Zhang Mu was not so worried, because even if several players left the team because of these things, he would immediately find a suitable supplement, and even a team that suited him more than them. This is the benefit of rebirth in the human race. He always knows more than others and sees farther than others.

In fact, Zhang Mu can only be said to be basically satisfied with Monaco's current lineup. As for being very satisfied, he is far from reaching, because although there are many talented players in the team, they cannot be so perfect in terms of bench depth, and there are still some players in the main lineup that are not top stars.
