"I am very pleased to have the opportunity to publish a column in The Guardian to share my understanding and knowledge of football with all my fans and friends, and to discuss my journey back to the Premier League in the two months since I arrived. ”

After four rounds of Premier League play, it is time for a two-week international break.

However, although the league was suspended, the media still needed to continue, and the Guardian, after a long period of publicity, finally officially published Gao Han's first column on September 1, and quickly caused a sensation in the UK.

"A lot of people who don't know me will criticize the way we've played this season, think I'm stubborn, think I'm too pushy, but there are also people who know me who think it's the cold they are familiar with. ”

'From the moment I decided to return to the Premier League, winning wasn't my only pursuit, it wasn't the whole game. ”

'There's no doubt that every manager needs to be accountable for his team, for his players, for the management behind him, and nobody likes to lose, but football is not all about winning and I'm coaching Man City because I want to do more. ”

"If you want to discuss the advantages and disadvantages of the back three and the back four, maybe we can't talk about it for ten days and half a month, and it's too boring, here I can only say that the back three represents a completely different tactical concept from the back four, at least in my mind, the three, four and three formation is synonymous with full attack and defense, and it is also my pursuit. ”

"Then why did Manchester City play like this season, scoring just five goals in four games?"

'Obviously, we have the brightest attacking squad in the Premier League, if not in Europe, and it stands to reason that we should have scored three or four goals in every game, but the problem is that our attack is not linked up well and it makes it easy for us to be interrupted by the opposition once we get into a certain area. ”

"In the past few games, we have been trying to adjust, but as we all know, since the beginning of the new season, the two games in a row have not left us enough time to try and run-in. ”

"But even so, we can clearly see the happy changes, such as the third and fourth rounds of the league, we created more chances, and even in the fourth round, we tried a lot of successive passes, especially the 14 consecutive passes, which made me very happy. ”

"I've always believed that we're constantly improving, we're constantly solving problems, and we're going to get better, stronger, and more confident. ”

In the column, Gao Han very sincerely dissected the troubles that his team has encountered this season.

Although he didn't say it explicitly, anyone familiar with football can guess that Kaka's absence has indeed caused a lot of trouble for Manchester City, because neither David Silva nor Modric belong to the same type as Kaka.

At the very least, in terms of attacking from the back, the gap between them and Kaka is still very obvious.

With two matches in a week, almost every three or four days, such a dense and frequent schedule did not give Manchester City the slightest opportunity to adjust and breathe, resulting in the cold team never stopping to catch their breath.

This is undoubtedly quite disadvantageous for a team that has just restructured.

However, the situation will improve as the fortnight of international fixtures gives City a respite, and as we head into September, the unaffected European competition will see a more relaxed environment.

This is undoubtedly great news for Manchester City.

Gao Han also mentioned his goals and strategies for this season in his column.

"I counted last season's head-to-head records between Manchester City and the top four teams in the league, Arsenal won 3-0 at home and lost 0-2 away, Chelsea was 1-3 at home and 0-1 away, Manchester United was 0-1 at home and 0-2 away, while Liverpool was 2-3 at home and drew 1-1 away. ”

'Eight games, one win, one draw and six defeats, both against Chelsea and Manchester United, is undoubtedly quite bad for a team that wants to go ahead, and against several strong teams, we can clearly see our own shortcomings and what the team needs to improve. ”

"I think one of the most important tasks for the team in the new season is to improve their performance and score points against the big teams, and only by improving our performance in the big talk will we be able to be on a par with these strong teams. ”

'As for how many points we can win and how many games we win to win them, we don't have to worry about that, we just have to give it our all and play every game. ”

'The Premier League has been very competitive this season, with Chelsea at the top of the table, followed by Tottenham Hotspur, a very strong team that has also been very strong, Redknapp has always been a very good homegrown manager, and after us, the likes of Arsenal, Manchester United and Liverpool will also be chasing after us. ”

'For us, the advantage is that we only have to play for the league, we can give it our all, we don't have to be distracted by European competitions, especially physically, and the challenge is to perform in the strong dialogue. ”

"Heading into September, after two weeks of international matches, we will welcome Arsenal in the fifth round of the Premier League and Manchester United in the sixth round of the Premier League. ”

"I'm really looking forward to that. ”

"This season, Manchester City have no European competitions to play, and facing strong teams, especially the favourites, is our Champions League game, which is the best test of our strength. ”

'We need to show all the fans that we can play better and get better results. ”

…………

In the courtyard of his mansion in the Golden Triangle of Cheshire, Ferguson read Gao Han's column, sighed twice, and thought to himself, should I write a column too?

The Guardian attaches great importance to Gao Han's column, which began to be promoted early, and was officially published on September 1, and quickly caused a huge response, and it is said that the Guardian newspaper was sold out of stock this morning, which shows Gao Han's influence among fans.

And judging from this column, Gao Han is indeed very well written, reasonable, and not humble or arrogant.

It not only clarified the criticism of his so-called one-to-zero doctrine, but also explained his own coaching philosophy and Manchester City's strategy for Manchester City's Premier League this season, and at the same time sounded the clarion call for the next two strong conversations.

"This kid is really calculating. Ferguson laughed and scolded.

You must know that the Guardian's columns are paid, and it is said that Gao Han's remuneration is quite high, and it is updated from time to time.

In other words, Gao Han can write whenever he wants, and he won't write if he doesn't want to, and judging from the news exposed by the tabloid media before, the Guardian has advanced a one-time salary of 3 million pounds to him, which shows the importance he attaches to him.

At the thought of this, Ferguson was depressed.

He had worked hard to make an autobiography before, and the sales were good, but so far, he has only received about a million pounds in remuneration, but Gao Han is good, and he has earned three million pounds without writing a word.

This person is more angry than people.

But Gao Han's idea of winning the league is right.

Take last season as an example, Manchester United performed well in the strong dialogue, but lost to Liverpool in both rounds of duels, which led to the Red Devils in the final championship quite the other hand, Liverpool, the strong dialogue results were very impressive, which directly led to the Reds to win the league runner-up.

So why couldn't Benitez's side win the title?

Because they have excellent results in strong dialogues, but their ability to abuse vegetables is not good, especially at home, against Stoke City, against Fulham, against West Ham United, against Hull City, etc., all draws, including 0-0 in both legs against Stoke City.

It was precisely because they conceded too many points against the middle and lower teams that Liverpool ultimately missed the championship.

On the other hand, Manchester City, the cold team's ability to abuse vegetables is certainly not a problem, the opponents in the first four rounds of the new season except for Everton, the strength is not strong, although Manchester City is not performing well, but they are also winning by one goal.

So, the real test is in the strong dialogue.

Ferguson has to admit that Gao Han has a very full understanding of the situation in the Premier League.

Thinking of this, Ferguson suddenly took out his mobile phone, found Gao Han's phone number, and called directly.

The phone rang a few times before it was connected, and Gao Han's laughter was heard.

"What's the matter, Jazz, there's no game, it's boring?"

"I heard you didn't go to UEFA's head coach summit, what are you busy with?" Ferguson asked.

This news has just been read from the newspaper, and there is no high cold in the list of participants announced by UEFA.

"I heard?" Gao Han smiled, "That means you didn't go either." ”

Ferguson could only hehe.

"I'm the manager of Manchester City now, I can't play in European competitions, so it's interesting to go to the manager's summit?"

Although UEFA specially invited Gao Han, he still found a reason to politely decline.

Even, he didn't even attend the medal ceremony because his team couldn't play the Champions League, and the draw ceremony had nothing to do with him.

Ferguson laughed, "I knew you weren't going, so I didn't either." ”

"Pull it down, you don't want to go, don't use me as a shield. "Where will Gao Han believe.

"By the way, there's movement around you, where?"

"The new home, I've been busy, I don't have time to come and see, and it is estimated that I will move here in another month. ”

"Are you in Aldrich?"

Ferguson slapped his thigh excitedly, "Okay, you just wait for me over there, I'll be there soon, don't go back today, come to my house as a guest." ”

After a pause, Ferguson's face sank, "I never invite others to my house as guests, you are the first, you are not allowed to refuse, otherwise I will turn my face." ”

Gao Han on the other side of the phone was stunned.

In these years, many things can be strong, but I didn't expect that even inviting people as guests can be strong.

But after thinking about it again, I was relieved, this old man was probably panicked at home, and he was worried that he couldn't find a companion.

But what he didn't know was that as soon as Ferguson heard Gao Han's promise, he immediately returned home and solemnly explained to his wife Cathy that he was going to have a sumptuous lunch at noon to entertain Gao Han, and then went to the wine cellar to take out the good wine that he had carefully stored for many years, and planned to drink it well.

As soon as they heard that Gao Han was coming, the Ferguson family was so excited that they couldn't do it, and his younger brother Martin Ferguson, who lived not far away, rushed to the banquet with his whole family when he heard the news.

Ferguson even drove to Aldryech in person, and after visiting Gao Han's new home, he picked up Gao Han's family of three and went home.

But what Gao Han didn't know was that what greeted him was a disaster.
