Chapter 369: There is no excuse for the sin that you want to add
"Van der Sar?"
At Liverpool's Melwood training base, Houllier frowned deeply when he saw the news of Chelsea's move from Fulham on Fulham as Hollier saw the news in The Echo, as if he was puzzled by the transfer. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info
"How could it be him?"
"That's something we're all weird about. Phil Thompson shook his head with a wry smile.
The goalkeeper coach also said: "Van der Sar's performance at Fulham has been inconsistent, good in the highlights, but terrible in the slumps, and overall among the many goalkeepers in the Premier League, he can only be considered average. ”
There is no shortage of good goalkeepers in the Premier League today, Jaskelainen, Given, Butters, Dudek, Friedel ...... They are all quite good goalkeepers, and judging from Van der Sar's performance in the Premier League for two seasons, it is very good to be in the middle of the table.
'As a goalkeeper, Van der Sar has many advantages, but he also has fatal shortcomings, and he often plays with his footwork in the game, which often brings disaster to the team, and he made a fatal mistake last season. ”
The words of the goalkeeper coach immediately reminded everyone present and evoked their memories.
"I forgot which game it was, it seemed that when I received the return pass, I encountered a tight press, and I didn't clear the siege at the first time, but I wanted to pass the opponent and pass it again, but the person passed, but the ball was not passed, and it was broken and hit an empty goal. Phil Thompson laughed.
"Yes, that's right, Fulham only lost one goal, and it was Van der Sar who took the initiative and they fell into the relegation zone because of it, so Van der Sar was overwhelmed with accusations at that time. ”
Someone next to him immediately remembered, "The fight against Bolton!"
"Yes, it's Bolton. ”
The crowd straightened it out at once.
At least, judging by his performances at Juventus and Fulham, Van der Sar is not strong, if not worse, but why would Chelsea want to bring him in?
"What does Gao Han like about him?" asked Hollier, frowning.
Phil Thompson thought for a moment and nodded, "Maybe it's the advantage of seeing Van der Sar's range of activities larger." ”
"That's right. The goalkeeper coach agrees, "As Phil mentioned in his previous report, the gap between the goalkeeper and the back line is too large when pressing forward in the Chelsea defence, and it is not something that can be filled simply by asking Cudicini to expand his range of activities, because the Italian goalkeeper himself is not that type. ”
"Van der Sar is really unstable, but at least he has a lot of range of activities, which should be more suitable for Chelsea's tactics, but I still think that Gao Han is just in a hurry, there is no better choice, so he will be selected in a hurry, this is just a transition, and Van der Sar is new to the city, I am afraid that there will be time to integrate into Chelsea. ”
The goalkeeper coach's analysis is reasonable and has been affirmed by Houllier.
'Having said that, Chelsea's problems are still there and we're going to continue with our previous strategy. ”
Hollier made a decision, and everyone had no opinion.

…………
At the Harrington training ground in London, Chelsea did not even arrange a signing ceremony for Van der Sar, but only made a hasty announcement on the official website, sending a notice to the newspaper that the Dutch goalkeeper took part in the team's training for the first time.
Gao Han is also buying all the time to help the Dutchman integrate into the team.
But as everyone expected, the newcomers have yet to build a good rapport with the team.
In order to better establish their tacit understanding, Gao Han arranged the main defense line to be in the same group as Van der Sar in the drill, and at the same time asked Ibrahimovic and Eto'o to increase the pressing of the back line and goalkeeper.
The effect is a little, but it is still not enough.
This made Gao Han's shouts on the Harrington training ground endless.
One moment he shouted for left-back Bridgedor to retreat, another shouted for the centre-back not to press too high, and another he asked Ferreira to get as close to the goalkeeper as possible......
The league is about to start, and the first round is Anfield, the most terrifying devil home in the Premier League, and everyone is under pressure.
"It's still not enough time. Cantarero sighed.
If Van der Sar had joined the team from the start of the training camp, the situation would have been better than it is now.
But joining in a hurry, after two days of joint training, he will go north and challenge Liverpool away, which must be difficult for a strongman.
"It's okay, the game is the best training ground. "Gao Han is very open-minded and confident.
"It's a lot of noise out there right now, and a lot of fans, encouraged by the media, feel that there is a problem with the deal for Van der Sar, Makelele, and even Veron. Cantarero let out another long sigh.
Conspiracy theories are always easier to spread and believe in this world than the truth.
Chelsea's transfer operations this summer have been handled by Gao Han, but without the help of agent Jorge Mendes, Gao Han would not have been able to do so much alone.
As the core coaching staff of the team, Cantarero knows Gao Han very well and knows very well that this is because of the chaos of Chelsea management, not what Gao Han wants.
But in the eyes of the media and some fans who are afraid that the world will not be chaotic, this is a sign of Gao Han's monopoly of power, and even they believe that Gao Han let his agent participate in these transfer operations, which is itself for profit.
Today's Gao Han is really yellow mud and drops the crotch of his pants, isn't it.
Fortunately, the management did a good job this time, and the chairman Bruce Barker personally came forward to clarify, saying that every transfer operation of the club was approved by the board of directors, and the management fully believed that Gao Han was in charge of the team.
The behind-the-scenes boss Abramovich also gave an interview to the media, clarifying the rumors about Gao Han using the transfer for profit, saying that he would not give up his trust in Gao Han because of this.
But Gao Han is right, there is no excuse for the crime he wants to add.
Instead of resolving the misunderstanding, the high-level clarification has increased the topic of media and fan hype.
Quite simply, they thought that this was a helpless move that the club's top management had to do, and even thought that they had been kidnapped by Gao Han.
The situation outside is overwhelming, and almost all the pressure is concentrated on Gao Han's body.
But now, the team has problems again.
It's entirely conceivable that if they lose away to Anfield this week, Alpine will be in a much more difficult situation.
A team that spent 200 million euros to build can't beat Liverpool?
"What they want is hype, and it's up to them. "Gao Han can see it quite openly.
Cantarero also felt that this could only be the case, this kind of thing is getting darker and darker, "but wait for the pre-match press conference, I'm afraid they won't let you go so easily, you have to prepare early." ”
As is customary, if Gao Han holds a pre-game press conference in Harrington to announce the team's 18-man squad, this will be the best time for all media reporters to publicly make Gao Han difficult, and it is completely conceivable that they will attack in droves at that time.
"Don't worry, I'm not a fuel-efficient lamp either. Gao Han smiled.
From the beginning of Atletico Madrid to now, three years have passed, he is indeed no longer the kid who would be nervous when he saw media reporters, and now he has the halo of the Champions League champion and La Liga treble on his head, if the media reporters go too far, he dares to fight back in person.
As Alex Ferguson once said, British journalists are a bunch of hungry mad dogs, if you are afraid, they will rush up and tear you to pieces, but if you resist and beat them up, then they will not dare to provoke you.
When the time comes, just throw a piece of flesh and bone at them every once in a while, and they will come up to you, lick your toes, and wag their tails at you flatteringly.
But having said that, Cantarero still feels very uneasy.
He was born to worry about this kind of labor!
…………
…………
All in all, this is the first time that Gao Han has faced the media up close since he joined Chelsea.
The last time was at Ronaldinho's joining ceremony, but he was standing inside Stamford Bridge, in front of the media and the fans, but this time it was different when he was in the pre-match press conference.
According to the press officer, nearly 100 media outlets will attend the press conference, which is the largest pre-match press conference ever held by Chelsea.
Gao Han also attaches great importance to his debut in the Premier League, so he specially bought himself a new suit and uniform in the coaching system, and the effect is [mighty].
If the two uniforms purchased before had a team effect, then now this new uniform is only for Gao Han alone, making him look more stable and aura, and the effect is also to enhance his prestige in an all-round way.
I still remember what Zhang Quan said, wide stripes, pocket towels, and three-piece suits, these are the details of the suit that show identity and influence, and it is not something that ordinary people can control.
If Gao Han had always adopted a low-key strategy when he was at Atletico Madrid, now he feels that he has to step up.
Now not only the fans in England and Europe, but even the whole world are watching him, and if he doesn't stand up at this time, then his prestige in the team will plummet.
As a manager, if he can't defend his players, how can he ask them to obey?
So this time, Gao Han chose a dark gray suit uniform with wide stripes, and the white shirt was still underneath, but he wore a tie to make himself look more calm.
And when he straightened his suit, walked out of the room, and returned to the office, the coaching staff, team leader and press officer were already waiting for him.
As soon as they saw Gao Han's dress, everyone present was dazzled, and even a trace of awe flashed in the eyes of many people, which made Gao Han feel very satisfied.
"The reporters have already arrived at the scene, and this is the general process and the details that need to be paid attention to in the questioning session, you see. The press officer greeted him and politely handed over a document.
Gao Han did not hold a press conference when he joined, so Chelsea also took his debut in the British media very seriously, but the worst thing is that there are now a lot of unfavorable remarks outside outside.
It is conceivable that with the urine of the British media, it will definitely bite the high cold.
Gao Han opened it and looked at it, his brows furrowed slightly, but he immediately dispersed, handed back the document to the press officer, nodded, and said confidently: "It's okay, don't worry about this, whatever they ask." ”
The press officer was dumbfounded.
Just ask?
What if you are dumbfounded by a media reporter?
But Gao Han obviously ignored him, and walked straight out of the office and walked towards the press conference room. (To be continued.) )
