Less than 24 hours after Augenthaler left Wolfsburg's tenure as head coach, the next morning, Wolfsburg announced the new manager:

Former Bayern Munich coach Magath has become the new head coach of Wolfsburg. [A lot of good novels]

In fact, before the official announcement of the results, Beck relied on his contacts in German football to know the results.

He told Yang Fan the news he had inquired about.

'Wolfsburg's new manager is Magath. Baker said.

"Magat?" Yang Fan was stunned for a moment, and subconsciously asked, "That Magat who coached Frankfurt?"

Baker didn't expect Yang Fan to ask like this, he thought that Yang Fan would say 'the magath of Bayern Munich', but he didn't expect Yang Fan to mention Frankfurt. Baker thought for a moment and nodded, "That's right, Magath coached Eintracht Frankfurt, that was a few seasons ago, I don't expect you to know him so well." ”

Yang Fan smiled bitterly, the grievances between Yang Chen and Magath, who were so famous in China at the beginning, were given by the hype of the Chinese media, and almost all Chinese football 'fans' knew that there was a head coach in Frankfurt who did not like Chinese players very much, and his name was Magat.

It can even be said that Magath's image in the hearts of Chinese football 'fans' can be said to be quite bad.

Yang Fan was also affected by the indiscriminate bombardment of the Chinese media, and when he subconsciously heard the name Magat, he frowned.

"What's wrong?" Baker asked.

"I've heard a saying before that Magath is biased against Chinese players. Yang Fan said.

Hearing Yang Fan say this, Baker's expression was surprised.

"How could such a claim come out?" he said in astonishment, "I don't know much about Magath, but, as far as I know, he doesn't behave like you're talking about." As a manager, it's impossible to have any preconceived notions about a player because of their nationality. ”

Yang Fan scratched his head, "Really?"

"Where did you hear that?" Beck asked, he had to 'figure out' the reason for the incident, otherwise, if Yang Fan ended up moving to Wolfsburg, then Yang Fan could be subconsciously estranged from head coach Magath because of this preconceived subconscious feeling, which is a very bad situation.

Yang Fan talked about the grievances between Yang Chen and Magat.

After listening to this, Baker thought for a while, and then thought of what Yang Fan said, after all, Yang Chen is an absolute big-name star in the eyes of many Chinese football 'fans', but in the eyes of the well-informed Baker, he really can't be counted.

Baker remembered this Chinese player named Yang Chen, and vaguely remembered the grudge between this Chinese player and Magath.

In the 2000/2001 Bundesliga season, Yang Chen had an argument with then-Eintracht Frankfurt coach Magath during training before the start of the season. Subsequently, before the 2001/2002 Bundesliga season, Yang Chen missed the team's training due to some things, and Magath immediately announced a three-game ban on Yang Chen.

The contradiction between Magath and Yang Chen, the German media played a very bad role in it, when "Kicker" published an article "Yang Chen: I won't let Magath teach my son", Yang Chen was joking, but it became a fierce material in the eyes of German reporters, which obviously caused Magat's unhappiness, so there were more contradictions between the two sides later.

In Baker's view, in the grievances between Magath and Yang Chen, both parties are responsible, and if the two sides could communicate well at the time, they may not be so stiff later. Of course, he didn't know much about it. After all, it is impossible for him to pay attention to a Chinese player who has little to do with him.

"I know what you're talking about, it's not as exaggerated as yours. Baker said to Yang Fan, who went on to explain his analysis.

"In this matter, both sides are responsible. In any case, a player who throws his shirt against the manager is intolerable to the manager. "And, as far as I know, Magath is a tough manager, well, he's about the same as Augenthaler in that regard." So, after that Chinese player made such a move, he was indeed destined not to be used too much in Magath, unless he had the strength of Ronaldo, and the manager had to use it, obviously, it was impossible. ”

Hearing Baker's analysis, Yang Fan suddenly realized that the Chinese media did not have so many explanations for this public case, and in the overwhelming reports in China at that time, it was just to express a meaning, Magath does not like Yang Chen and looks down on Chinese players!

As for the reason for the conflict between the two men, the media almost passed by, or did not mention it at all.

As a result, Magath has a rather bad impression of being a fan of Chinese football, and many people think that the coach is biased against Chinese players.

Yang Fan was obviously wrongly 'lured' by the media. Therefore, when I heard that Wolfsburg's new head coach was Magath, I had such a big reaction. After all, if Magath is really like what the Chinese media once reported, he still has to consider whether to transfer to Wolfsburg, not because he is not confident enough in his own strength, but because if the head coach is prejudiced against himself just because of his nationality, Yang Fan will also be extremely disgusted. Two people don't like each other, how can they cooperate?!

※※※※※※※

Yang Fan is not a foreign star who has gone out in the Chinese domestic league, so some of the 'lessons' of many Chinese players who have stayed abroad before are not suitable for him.

Looking back at the past few overseas experiences of Chinese players, it is not difficult to find that although they may have had a short period of happiness, most of the time, most of them played an unsuccessful role, at least the final result shows this: the level of Yang Chen, the pioneer of the Bundesliga, dropped sharply after returning to China, Xie Hui, the shooter of the German B, was almost laid off in China, and Zhang Xiaorui, who was recognized as a genius before going abroad, now has no ball to play...... Counting with his fingers, it seems that only Sun Jihai is still successful. Playing in Europe, this popular trend, is not so good for Chinese players.

In fact, among the Chinese players who stay abroad, there are not many players who completely rely on their own strength to impress the opponent, and more of them are the huge Chinese market behind them, and there are three major reasons for defeat.

The first and most important reason is that the strength is not good and the style of play is not adaptable. It should be admitted that most of the players who stay abroad are outstanding in China, and even if they are suspected of commercial operations, their strength is also recognized. However, the domestic excellent ones are not necessarily applicable to foreign teams, especially many domestic football theories are vastly different from foreign ones, which makes some domestic coaches unable to adapt to the opponent's style of play and tactics after they reach European teams, such as Li Jinyu before going to Nancy, France, is already the top in China. Shooter, teammates will give him a chance, but after arriving in Nancy, the team cannot develop tactics around him, and Li Jinyu's technical characteristics are opportunistic strikers, once the whole team does not give him more support, it will be difficult for him to gain a foothold in the team. At the same time, the training of Chinese players in China is too monotonous, and the technical characteristics of the guide zhì are relatively simple, unable to adapt to the changes in the team's tactical style. For example, Yang Chen relied on speed to shine in Frankfurt's anti-counter system, but after the team switched to an all-offensive and all-defensive style of play, he couldn't find a position because of his relatively rough skills.

In addition, there is another reason, that is, the Chinese media has also played a negative role in it, that is, there is too much hype and the other side is biased. The market is undoubtedly a double-edged sword, which not only promotes overseas stays, but also inadvertently hinders the development of Chinese players overseas. The most obvious point is that the reason why some foreign players can make the trip mainly depends on the operation of the market, and they do not consider whether they are the players that the other side needs, and even the head coach does not even understand his characteristics. Such examples abound, such as Ma Mingyu, Perugia when he was introduced, the main purpose was to expand the Chinese market, in the position he is good at, the head coach Kosmi has already had a choice in mind, and as a result, he has been reduced to a spectator in the team, playing less than 90 minutes in a season. The Chinese media is hyping on the sidelines, believing that it is not their own players who are not good, but that the opposing coach is biased, and after this argument increases, the players themselves will also be affected, and the transfer will further confront the head coach. At the same time, too many market factors also make the opposing coach prejudiced against the Chinese players, believing that the players forcibly stuffed by the club are not in his plan, and naturally shelved them. Lee's defeat at Everton has something to do with it.

Another major factor that restricts the success of Chinese players in Europe is the language barrier and cultural differences. There is a huge cultural difference between the East and the West, and due to institutional reasons, most of the Chinese players have not studied cultural classes, once they are foreign players, they have a language barrier between them and the head coach and the players, which will greatly affect his understanding of coaching tactics and cooperation with teammates. Moreover, compared with Western players, Chinese players are too introverted in their 'sexual' personality and are not good at communicating with others, which also makes it difficult for them to integrate into the life of the new collective. The most obvious example is Yang Chen, the conflict between this good old man and Magat is still fresh in people's memories, and after that, Yang Chen has completely fallen into a trough.

And the three reasons that restrict the success of Chinese players in Europe do not seem to exist in Yang Fan.

First of all, Yang Fan was the hottest striker in the Bundesliga last season, as the Bundesliga Golden Boot who once helped Wolfsburg to reach the top five in the league by himself, he has proven himself in the Bundesliga, and his reputation is out, and any manager will no longer doubt Yang Fan's strength, and may even consider formulating tactics around Yang Fan.

The second point is that Yang Fan is not a star sponsored by the Chinese market, nor is he touted by the Chinese media, he is his own hard work, for such a player, it is difficult for the head coach to be prejudiced, but he prefers it.

As for the language barrier, Yang Fan is now 'proficient' in English and fluent in German, and Beck was surprised to praise Yang Fan as a language genius, because it only took more than half a year to master German fluently, which can be called a miracle.

Therefore, Yang Fan's success has little reference value for Chinese players in China, and of course, the failure factors of the previous Chinese overseas players have no reference value for him.

In order to completely dispel Yang Fan's doubts, Baker spent almost a day or two analyzing why the Chinese players failed in Europe before, and he even wrote a report to Yang Fan, and the content of the report is the three points we just talked about.

And the reason why Yang Fan has the preconceived judgment that 'Magath is biased against Chinese players' is really because of the hype of the Chinese media, and in this regard, the Chinese media is very harmful.
