Gao Han met Marcos Senna on the third day after Christmas. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

The Brazilian midfielder has not returned home for Christmas, most of his family is already in Spain, and he himself has been here for almost a decade and has become accustomed to everything Madrid.

The meeting place is arranged in a VIP box at a newly opened upscale Chinese restaurant in Madrid.

This is a branch, the head office in London, founded during Gao Han's coaching of Chelsea, Gao Han has half of the shares, when the new opening, Chelsea did not arrange a Christmas party, so Gao Han specially invited Chelsea players and their families to this Chinese restaurant to dine, and since then it has become famous.

Since then, the Chinese restaurant has become a favourite among many Chelsea stars, and business has gone from strength to strength, with branches already open in major cities such as Paris, Milan and Munich, and now in Madrid.

Because it was a private invitation, there were four people in total, and in addition to the two protagonists, the agent Jorge Méndez and the technical director Carlos Cantarero were by their side.

Marcos Senna has always been grateful for Gao Han, because if it weren't for Gao Han, he would not have had the opportunity to play in the Europa League, let alone win the European Cup on behalf of Spain.

In fact, the reason why he was naturalized to play for Spain was also played by Gao Han's encouragement.

Therefore, when he heard that Gao Han's China Town team was interested in him, although he did not agree, he did not refuse, otherwise, if he changed to other second-tier league teams, he would definitely drive the other party out of the door without even thinking about it.

Half a year ago, he was the main winner of the European Championship, and in half a year he will play in the second division?

But after thinking about it carefully, especially after analyzing his current situation, he was really a little difficult.

First of all, at Atletico Madrid, he is too old to compete with players such as Seydou Keita and Gabi in their playing years, and Xavi Alonso's core position is unshakable, so he has no choice at all, so he can only be substituted.

If he leaves Atletico Madrid and goes to other La Liga teams, the main team may have no problem, but firstly, there are not many teams willing to accept him, most of them are also middle and lower teams, and secondly, after going to a new team, it is still unknown whether he can gain trust.

Instead of this, it is better to follow Gao Han and go to the China City team.

At the end of the day, Marcos Senna, like everyone around him, has an almost blind trust in him, believing that this Chinese city team will be able to make it to La Liga soon.

Therefore, he took the initiative to ask Gao Han for dinner and expressed his intentions.

"Boss, I want to be able to play football and get a coaching certificate at the same time, and become a coach in the future. ”

"Is it?" Gao Han was a little surprised at first, but then he was happy, "This is a good thing, our youth training center and the Spanish Football Federation have cooperation in coach training, as long as you have any needs, I will definitely support you." ”

With Gao Han's words, Marcos Senna was relieved.

But Gao Han quickly changed his words, "Actually, Marcos, I don't think you should care too much about what happens after retirement." ”

"Why?" said Marcos Cena, who was about to turn thirty-three.

Gao Han smiled, "I don't think you can play for at least another three or four years without a problem." ”

Marcos Senna was stunned, he didn't expect Gao Han to think so highly of him.

You know, three or four years later, he is already thirty-six or seventeen years old, and he can still play?

"I remember when I first met you, I knew that you were a smart guy and a quick learner, so before you came to Atletico Madrid, you didn't even play much in the professional league, but you were able to adapt very quickly, which is not something that ordinary people can do. ”

Marcos Senna was silent, he really didn't know that he still had that impression in the manager's mind.

Even, he was a little moved.

"You know what? Smart players tend to change their style of play on the pitch depending on their age and I think you can do that. When he said this, Gao Han paused deliberately.

"What's more, if you think about it, half a year ago, you just won the European Cup as the main defender and reached the peak of your life, can it be said that half a year later, you began to think about retiring?

Marcos Senna didn't answer, but the look on his face betrayed him.

Unwilling, absolutely unwilling.

This kind of thing would not be reconciled to any other person.

"Believe me, Marcos, I didn't invite you to Chinatown to be relegated in La Liga, otherwise we wouldn't have been able to afford to pay you and Diego Costa this summer. ”

Speaking of this, Gao Han himself felt a little ashamed, too single, right?

"We have only one goal, to finish in La Liga and establish ourselves in La Liga. ”

When Marcos Senna heard this, he jerked his head up, his eyes shining and staring at Gao Han.

It wasn't until this moment that he really made up his mind.

…………

After lunch with Marcos Senna, Jorge Mendes and Marcos Senna went on to attend to some business, while Gao Han returned to Fuenlabrada with Cantarero to relay the news to Armando Marcos and manager Mauricio Pochettino, who were both excited.

Marcos Senna, who was the absolute main force of Spain's victory in the European Championship half a year ago, and the pillar of the midfield that Aragonés relied on the most, actually wanted to join the Chinese city team?

This news will definitely shock the whole of La Liga, no, the whole of Spanish football, and even European football.

"No, I have to talk to my colleagues in the commercial department again, and I have to renegotiate the previous projects. Armando Marcos immediately took his leave excitedly.

By the time the general manager left, the conference hall was left with Gao Han, Cantarero and Pochettino.

In the management system of Gao Han's reorganization, Cantarero, the technical director, is almost at the same level as Armando Marcos, except that one of the two is responsible for business operations and daily operations, and the other is responsible for competitive affairs, coordinating and communicating with each other, while he, the boss, is responsible for the overall situation.

"Mauricio, what are your plans when Marcos Senna joins?" Gao Han asked Pochettino with a smile.

The Argentine also seemed to be prepared, nodding and saying: "His arrival can greatly improve the strength of our midfield, I haven't thought about how to use it yet, but in my opinion, he can be qualified for the role of the core of the team's midfield organization." ”

Gao Han and Cantarero glanced at each other, and both nodded in agreement.

Marcos Senna has never been a defensive player, but has both attack and defense, and his passing ability is quite good, especially over the years, the training in La Liga and Atletico Madrid has made his passing ability more and more sophisticated, even with a top playmaker like Xavi Alonso, he is still a famous deputy.

"In our four-three-three tactical system, if you want to suppress the opponent, you must do a good job of pressing and pressing in the front, before our midfield problem was that there were only two players Schneiderlin and Ramirez, Isco and Koke are relatively young, and the other players are not competent, which caused us to lose momentum in the midfield. ”

Gao Han nodded, "Go on." ”

"As you said before, there are two ways to control the ball, one is to pass better than the opponent, and the other is to make the opponent unable to pass and control, the former relies on passing skills, and the latter relies on pressing and high pressing, especially in the area from the middle circle to the front of the opponent's penalty area. ”

"When you have the ball, try to keep the ball in this area, and when you lose the ball, you have to do everything you can to grab the ball in that area, launch a counter-attack on the spot, and create a threat as quickly as possible. ”

"Well said. When Gao Han heard this, he clapped his hands vigorously and laughed.

This Belsa's disciple was indeed a Belsa disciple, and he touched the door.

Pochettino is definitely a smart guy and he has a good grasp of the trends in the mainstream tactics of European football over the past few years.

After being praised by Gao Han, Pochettino became more confident.

"My thinking is this, with Marcos Senna at the core, with Schneiderlin and Ramirez forming a midfield three, I believe that we will be able to sweep the whole La Liga. Pochettino said confidently.

Gao Han also agreed, "I very much agree with you, and my opinion is that Schneiderlin is in front and Marcos Senna is behind, which can better play to their advantages." ”

Pochettino was slightly stunned when he heard this, but he quickly understood what Gao Han meant.

In the original tactical system of the Chinese City team, Pochettino dragged Schneiderlin behind, giving full play to his excellent defensive ability and steady ball ability, and faintly cultivating him in the direction of the organizer who dragged him behind.

But what Gao Han means is to let him go forward, play his characteristics of covering a large area and strong frontal defensive ability, and his offensive ability is not bad, he has a certain ability to dribble the ball, and he can play more advantages in the area where he is more forward.

What's more, with Schneiderlin and Ramirez, two players with excellent running coverage ability, sweeping and intercepting in front, and Marcos Senna dragging behind to control the whole situation, the pressure is relatively much less, which can not only play to his strengths in organizing passes, but also reduce his burden.

"Okay, I'll try it when I'm training. Pochettino agreed.

He admires Gao Han's idea very much, but he must try it in training so that he can practice it in the competition.

"It's good to try, but ......," Gao Han suddenly laughed, "Sometimes you have to be decisive, especially before the big war, and you can't tolerate the slightest hesitation." ”

Pochettino understood what Gao Han meant.

The first half of the Chinese City team was indeed not ideal, and the second division was in twelfth place, although there was no problem with relegation, but it was difficult to upgrade, which was really a big blow to Pochettino's confidence.

In a few days' time, the team will face the first game of 2009 away to current league leaders Sares, who are the favourites for promotion this season, and will be a big test for China City, and Pochettino will also be under pressure.

Gao Han is the manager himself, and of course understands Pochettino's worries at this moment.

"Sometimes, this kind of game is a threshold, cross it, everything will be smooth, if you can't cross it, then you will be blocked out forever, just like Capello's Real Madrid, from the defeat of Barcelona away, they have been completely activated morale, on the other hand, Barcelona, their own pressure is increasing, and they make mistakes frequently. ”

"In my experience, when this happens, I tend to believe in myself, in my players, and stick to the beliefs that I've always held onto. ”

Pochettino understood that Gao Han was pointing at him, and nodded heavily.

"I see, thank you, Mr. Kohan. ”
