Mancini was still working in the manager's office at Manchester City's training base, his first day at the club, and he attended a press conference in the afternoon, after which he officially got to work, although he has not yet met with his players. The latest chapter full text read txt full works download 75txt-

The previous owner of this office, Mark Hughes, got out of class yesterday, and now, there are traces of this Welsh predecessor in the office, and there is a family photo of the Manchester City team this season hanging on the wall, the players are standing together, Mark Hughes, the head coach, is standing on the side, looking at the young man who was guarded by the players, looking at the coach on the side, this seems to be the portrayal of this Welsh coach in this club, maybe in the eyes of everyone, Mark Hughes is far less important than these big stars.

The young man who was guarded in the middle by the players had a confident smile on his face, and this is Yang Fan, the team's current number one star and this year's European Footballer of the Year.

For Mancini, he knew that the first thing he had to do was a challenge from within. The complexity of the Manchester City dressing room is a huge challenge for any coach.

People like to call Mancini "Mancho", and this affectionate title is taken from the meaning of gentleman itself, but can such a suave, modest and friendly coach control the huge squad of 28 players that has been improvised in pounds? Although the Times says that Mancini has the experience of managing many stars at Inter Milan, it should be easy to think of the big names of Manchester City.

However, in fact, Mancini has never been good at controlling the dressing room and 'dealing' with the 'sexual' players in the team. From the conflicts with Recoba, Veron, Adriano, and Cress at Inter Milan, he has never been good at controlling problem players. In the case of Inter Milan, the relationship between Roberto Mancini and the unruly Zlatan Ibrahimovic is not as harmonious as it has been portrayed, with the proud Swede never having ever submitted to Mancini. Mancini knew this.

Mancini knows that if he can't keep the dressing room in check, his billion-pound squad will cause more and more trouble.

In fact, for the relatively conservative Premier League, as an outside manager, as an Italian, it is not easy, and it is even more difficult to coach a "nouveau riche" team that is eager to achieve results. Mancini's current coaching record is much better than that of his predecessors, Keegan, Pierce and Hughes, but he lacks the media recognition and affinity of his predecessors with homegrown coaches.

He opened his notepad and wrote Yang Fan's name on it, to stabilize the dressing room of Manchester City, the Chinese star is the key, and after thinking about it, Mancini wrote the names of Tevez and Adebayo on it, and finally, added the name of Robinho.

The club's staff was busy moving things, moving things from the Mark Hughes era and bringing in what he needed.

"Mr. Mancini, do you see if there's anything else to deal with above?" the staff asked.

"Take this poster down. Mancini pointed to the Mark Hughes-era Manchester City family photo on the wall.

"Are you sure?" the staff was stunned, he didn't think there was anything wrong with this family photo.

"That's right. Mancini confirmed again.

Watching the staff take down the posters, Mancini continued to be busy, he was checking the information of Manchester City's first-team players, which he began to focus on collecting after reaching a partnership agreement with Manchester City before, including text materials and a box of CDs, which are Manchester City's recent game footage.

At this time, the club's press officer, Cross, came in with a 'sexy' waist and 'hips', this is a very hot 'sexy' blonde beauty 'woman', in fact, Mancini was also stunned when he first saw this 'sexual' press officer, and at the same time sighed in his heart, ** Arabs, even the club's press officer is a 'flower' vase.

"Is there anything else I can help with, Mr. Mancini?" asked Cross.

"You've come just in time. Mancini nodded, "Is there a video of all the goal highlights since Yang Fan came to the Premier League? Well, I mean when he was at Manchester United." ”

"No problem, I'll arrange for someone to send it. "Also, tomorrow morning's departure time is 14:30 p.m." ”

"Where are you going?" asked Mancini, surprised.

"Oh, I'm sorry, I forgot to tell you. "Tomorrow is the 2009 World Footballer of the Year ceremony, and the club has arranged for the head coach of the team to accompany Mr. Yang Fan to attend the ceremony, and the club's president, Mr. Mubarak, and the executive officer, Mr. Gary Cook, will also be there.

Mancini suddenly said, World Footballer of the Year award ceremony, this is true, when he was the head coach of the Serie A giant's 'door' Inter Milan, none of his stars entered the top five of the World Footballer of the Year, and even the best ranking of Inter Milan's number one star Ibrahimovic in the World Footballer of the Year selection was only in the top ten. Unexpectedly, when he came to Manchester City, he had not yet commanded the team to play a game, and on the second day of the press conference of his appointment, he had to accompany a player to attend the World Footballer of the Year award ceremony, which really made Mancini a little 'confused'.

Mancini nodded, "Okay, I got it." ”

The press officer Kroos left, but Mancini smiled bitterly, he and Yang Fan have not met, the first time they met, it was actually as a companion, accompanying the young star to the FIFA headquarters: Manchester City, not only his own head coach has to accompany him, but also club chairman Mubarak and club CEO Gary Cook have to accompany all the way, it can be said that the entire senior management of Manchester City has been dispatched, which shows Yang Fan's status in Manchester City.

This made Mancini frown again, looking at the current posture, Yang Fan's status and momentum in Manchester City are much stronger than Ibrahimovic at Inter Milan, when he was at Inter Milan, Ibrahimovic was just a 'sexual' rebellious, but, in fact, in the locker room of Inter Milan, the Swede has never been the boss, the boss of the Inter Milan dressing room is the Argentine Zanetti and the huge Argentine gang.

Manchester City's current dressing room boss should be the young Chinese star captain, and what makes Mancini a little more relaxed is that in Manchester City's dressing room, there is no similar memory of the powerful Argentine gang in the Inter Milan dressing room...... That's good news.

※※※※※※※

The lights in the Manchester City manager's office were not extinguished until more than nine o'clock in the evening, Mancini has been studying the player information, watching the game video, most of the stars of the Manchester City team, Mancini still knows a lot, these stars are the top stars of their respective clubs before coming to Manchester City, not a cat or a dog.

Mancini focuses on the information of several people, among which Tevez has long been famous, when Mancini was still the head coach of Inter Milan, he once wanted to buy Tevez but could not, as for Adebayor, the former Arsenal striker once helped Arsenal kill Inter Milan's rival AC Milan 2-0 away, Mancini was watching the game in the stands at that time, and he was very impressed by Adebayor, as for Robinho, this is a top star who has been famous in football for a long time, and he was also a star when he was in Real Madrid, to put it mildly, Inter Milan also chased Inter Milan at that time, but, Inter Milan didn't have the money to buy Brazilians, and Mancini could only watch Robinho drool at that time, who would have thought that Robinho is now in Manchester City, and even now he can't play the main team......

※※※※※※※

Mancini can't help but feel the power of capital, now this Manchester City team, don't look at the eighth place in the Premier League, but the strength of this team on paper is very strong even in the entire European football world, especially at the offensive level, to put it mildly, compared with Real Madrid with Cristiano Ronaldo and Kaka and Barcelona with Messi and Iniesta, it is not inferior.

This is because Manchester City have Yang Fan.

The Arabs brandished the pound sterling and in just over a year, they built this terrifying local tyrant team.

Isn't that why Mancini accepted Manchester City's offer to coach the club? It is true that Manchester City's generous salary is one thing, but it is also undeniable that Manchester City's current strength is also the reason why Mancini was swept away from Inter Milan. Now, Manchester City is his first opportunity for Mancini, if he can lead such a team to rise, dominate the Premier League, and even reach the top of Europe, then he Mancini will also become a top coach in the entire football world, and he will return to the Apennines in style.

In addition, let's not forget that Manchester City's Arab boss is poor and only has money left, and when communicating with Mancini, he made it clear that money is never a problem in the transfer market. This is also where Mancini 'stirs', and in the current football world, the power and influence of capital is increasing, and Mancini knows this.

Just a week ago, FIFA yesterday announced the final list of candidates for the 2009 World Footballer of the Year and Miss Football, and Chinese star Yang Fan, Portuguese star Cristiano Ronaldo, Brazilian star Kaka, Argentine star Messi, Spanish star Xavi, these five male stars and the former three-time Miss World Football winner Marta and other four 'women' will be on the list.

Kaka (Brazil), Lionel Messi (Argentina), C. Ronaldo (Portugal), Yang Fan (China) and Xavi (Spain) are shortlisted for the final Footballer World Player, while Grace (Germany), Marta (Brazil), Prinz (Germany) and Smith (England) are in contention for Miss World Football.

Previously, on October 30, FIFA announced the 23-man squad for this year's Footballer of the Year and the 10 shortlists for Miss Football. In 1991, FIFA created the FIFA World Footballer of the Year selection. Previously, the national team managers of each member association voted to select the top three players, but could not choose the players who would coach their own national team. The first choice gets 5 points, the second choice gets 3 points, and the third choice gets 1 point. In the end, the score is calculated based on the number of votes received by the player. Since 2004, there has been a slight change in the rules for the selection of the World Footballer of the Year, with 80% of the votes cast by the national team managers and captains of the member associations and 20% by the International Professional Footballers' Union, with the same score. In the 2007 competition, Kaka won the first place. And in last year's selection, the number one was Cristiano Ronaldo.

In the following month, after the voting of the head coaches and captains of national (regional) teams from all over the world, the above nine people entered the final shortlist of World Footballer of the Year and Miss World Football.

On 23 December, FIFA will hold an awards ceremony at the Zurich Opera House to announce the 2009 World Footballer of the Year and Miss Soccer winners. This is also the biggest event in the entire football world before the Christmas holidays.

※※※※※※※

The next day, the Manchester City players found that it was still assistant coach Brian who directed their training, and did not see the shadow of the new head coach Mancini, and Yang Fan did not appear on the training ground, and then Brian revealed the mystery, and head coach Mancini accompanied Yang Fan to FIFA's headquarters in Zurich, Switzerland to attend the 2009 FIFA awards ceremony.

Hearing the news, the players talked a lot, and their envy was overflowing.

At this time, on the plane, Yang Fan also met the new head coach of the team, and the two of them exchanged a few simple greetings. This is a charter flight provided by Manchester City Club for Yang Fan to attend the FIFA Awards Ceremony, a luxury "private" plane worth more than 30 million pounds.

On the plane, Mancini was still joking with Yang Fan: "I got the World Footballer, but I want to have a treat." ”

Yang Fan naturally nodded and agreed, and the two chatted for a while along the way, and this time they attended the FIFA awards ceremony together, which provided an opportunity and time for Mancini and Yang Fan to 'communicate', and the new manager of Manchester City and the young Manchester City captain seemed to be talking happily.

Manchester City club chairman Mubarak and club CEO Gary Cook are in a very happy mood, especially the latter, as the person who single-handedly promoted and promoted Yang Fan to join Manchester City, Manchester City CEO Mr. Manchester City is very proud, Yang Fan came to Manchester City, this will definitely be the most important event in the history of the club.

Yang Fan's previous success in winning the 2009 European Footballer of the Year has greatly enhanced Manchester City's influence, as a team with a new European Ballon d'Or winner, the Premier League club is now a notch, and people look at this club not only with the eyes of local tycoons. And this time, if Yang Fan can get the World Footballer of the Year again and become the 2009 Mr. Double, then Manchester City's fame and influence will go to a higher level, which is all thanks to Yang Fan, so, in the current Manchester City team, to put it bluntly, Yang Fan's status is even higher than Gary Cook, the CEO, and not much better than Mubarak, the club president.

Of course, if Manchester City wants to completely get rid of the title of local tyrant and become a real giant, it also needs to really win a few high-value championship trophies on the field. This also depends on Yang Fan's efforts on the field to lead the team......

※※※※※※※

During the flight, Manchester City's senior executives accompanied Yang Fan, drinking mellow red wine in the luxurious small bar in the plane box, chatting about club affairs or some gossip, which was very happy.

"Yang, aren't you worried at all?" finally Mancini couldn't help but ask Yang Fan. Seeing that Yang Fan was not worried at all, Mancini was curious. FIFA's World Footballer of the Year award is not the same as the European Ballon d'Or, where the results are announced in advance, while FIFA's award is not known until the final award ceremony.

Therefore, don't look at Yang Fan's high voice now, but the possibility of Messi winning the award is also very great.

Sometimes the speculation of the outside media is unreliable, because the understanding of professional sports media reporters is completely different from that of the national team coach and captain.

Although Yang Fan had a 'brilliant' performance in the Premier League and the Champions League last season, leading Manchester United to a Grand Slam that season, but, at the level of the national team, Yang Fan is not as good as Messi, and, to tell the truth, Yang Fan is a Chinese player, which is generally recognized as an underdeveloped area of football, and those voting national team coaches and captains will choose who Yang Fan from China or Messi from Argentina, a traditional super football power, will choose when they choose Yang Fan, which is really not good.

Although Yang Fan has just won the European Ballon d'Or, this does not ensure that Yang Fan will win the World Footballer again, and it is not that he did not win the European Ballon d'Or that year, but lost the star selected by the World Footballer.

※※※※※※※

In 2003, the European Ballon d'Or was won by Czech star Nedved, while the World Footballer of the Year was won by French star Zinedine Zinedine Zidane.

Although Zidane is more famous than Nedved, Zidane's election still caused a lot of controversy, and many people believe that Zidane's appearance has not been outstanding in the past year, and they are unhappy for Nedved.

Why was Zinedine Zidane able to overtake the new European Footballer of the Year Nedved to be voted World Footballer of the Year?

This is because the head coaches of various countries and regions in the world are the group with the highest professional level in football, but the level of participants is uneven, which has always been criticized, making the selection less convincing than the "Ballon d'Or" of "French Football". In the past year, both in terms of individual performance and club results, Nedved has surpassed Zidane, he has saved the team in key games many times, Juve and Real Madrid have won the league title, but Juve Champions Cup results are better than Real Madrid, which is why Nedved is more favored in the Ballon d'Or selection. Because the judges of the Ballon d'Or are journalists from the world's top sports media, these people spend their days keeping an eye on the news and changes in world football, and they are very impressed by the players who are most likely to appear in the major sports news during the year, and they will carefully analyze the candidates' performances in various matches during the year from a professional point of view, so as to arrive at an authoritative result.

The selection of the World Footballer of the Year is the national team coach and national team captain of each FIFA member state, and there is a difference.

With players playing in Europe's top leagues, it's no surprise that the managers of the big names are keeping a close eye on European club competitions. However, the vast majority of national team managers and captains may not pay attention to European club competitions, and you can expect the managers and captains of countries such as Benin, Maldives and so on to watch a few Champions League games or Europe's top five leagues, and they can't even say whether they have watched the Champions League games or not. The criterion for their selection is whether the candidate's name is familiar to him, if he is familiar, it means that he is good, if he is not familiar, he is not good. They focus on the national team's games and honours.

Therefore, in the selection of the World Footballer, the national team table is very crucial, in 2002 Ronaldo's glory in the league field was almost blank, but with 8 World Cup goals elected World Footballer of the Year is this reason. Nedved, the 2003 Ballon d'Or winner, did not become the World Footballer of the Year, and France's international influence was far beyond that of the Czech Republic.

Take this year's World Footballer selection as an example, the competition is between Messi, Yang Fan and Cristiano Ronaldo, Cristiano Ronaldo has been in full swing in the first two seasons, and he has been promoted as the number one star in world football, his fame is even the biggest among the three, and the fame of Argentine star Messi is not weaker than Yang Fan, so don't look at Yang Fan won the European Golden Ball Award, he is the best player in the whole of Europe in the past year or so, but, perhaps in the eyes of the head coach and captain of the national team of some small countries, Yang Fan's fame is not necessarily comparable to Cristiano Ronaldo and Messi。

It is precisely because he knows the rules of the World Footballer of the Year and the pros and cons that Mancini can't help but ask.

"It's mine, it's mine after all. Yang Fan replied to the head coach of the team.

Ga-Mancini choked on this, and what else could he say could but smile and send his blessings in advance. I heard people say how unruly and arrogant this superstar under him is, he doesn't feel anything yet, when the two chatted just now, it was 'very' good, and now he understands: other times, Yang Fan is quite good, and it can even be said to be relatively gentle, but when it comes to football, this is different......

There is no first, there is no second, this is Yang Fan's football philosophy.
