『Chapter error, click here to report』

A brand new season is about to begin!

Gao Han propped his hands on the edge of the washbasin, raised his head, looked at himself in the mirror with his face full of water, and muttered to himself.

Today is the start of Manchester City's summer training camp and all the players will be assembled at the Carrington training base.

It was also Gao Han's first appearance as a Manchester City manager, and he was well aware of the challenges he had in charge of City.

Everyone knows that Gao Han has always been known for being good at developing young players, but this time he coached Manchester City, but he went against the norm and introduced superstars one after another, which is undoubtedly a subversion of his past.

A very important reason for this is that Manchester City's own strategy is a superstar strategy, and Gao Han is pushing the boat, hoping to use Manchester City's superstar strategy to win the league championship as soon as possible and return to the Champions League as soon as possible.

He also wants to be able to test whether his tactics will work as soon as possible.

Although, in the past few years, many media reporters and fans feel that Gao Han's technical and tactical style of play has not changed much, and it is mainly based on transmission and control, but only he and many friends in the circle, including Ferguson, know that the big framework has not changed, but the details have changed a lot, which has created his amazing results of invincibility in the past few years.

Otherwise, with the fierce competition in European football, if Gao Han had not made any progress all these years, he would have been stared at to death.

But this time is clearly different.

It should be said that this time it is more difficult and more challenging.

Manchester City seems to be a cloud of superstars, and even in the words of some media reporters and fans, as long as this group of superstars is put on the field, it is simply a god blocking and killing God, and Buddha blocking and killing Buddha.

But the question is, is it really that easy?

It's one thing to have high-level stars, but it's all about how to put them together as a whole team and activate their strongest competitiveness.

Today's Premier League is very different from when he was in charge of Chelsea.

At that time, Manchester United was still in the metabolic stage, and the defense was also full of problems, but now it is obviously completed; although Arsenal is no longer the courage of the past, it has maintained the strength level of the Champions League quarterfinals every year, which is enough to prove that the Gunners are still powerful, and the strength of Liverpool is far greater than that year.

As for Chelsea, after four managers of Claudio Ranieri, Gao Han, Jose Mourinho and Rijkaard, the Blues are still well founded enough to compete with the top teams in European football at the moment.

But the real test of the Premier League is not just these four traditional giants, but also the strength of other teams.

In the past few years, the Premier League's broadcast rights revenue has skyrocketed, and each team has been able to get a significant share of the broadcast revenue, making the purchasing power of Premier League teams quite amazing, and they can wave the pound sterling to bring in strong reinforcements in the continent with impunity, which makes the Premier League even the bottom team quite competitive.

Therefore, the Premier League is the most competitive league in football today.

For Gao Han, the Premier League is more like a testing ground, whether it is to get back the grudge between him and Chelsea, or to be able to further improve himself, Gao Han must break through.

Thinking of this, Gao Han's eyes stared at himself in the mirror, and his eyes revealed unprecedented determination.

"Premier League, I'm back!"

…………

The hotel's car took the cold to Carrington, a place in the west of Manchester.

A short walk south along a trail leads to Manchester City's training base.

Interestingly, along this path, Manchester United's training base is right next door to Manchester City.

Gao Han got out of the car at the gate of the training base, looked at the path in the distance, but thought funny in his heart, if he found a group of people, ambushed here, and waited for Ferguson to drive by, stop him, and beat him, the old man might cry miserably.

At that time, didn't you go to a big problem?

Thinking about it, Gao Han himself felt funny.

But at this moment, a car came behind him and stopped directly beside Gao Han.

The window of the car slowly lowered, revealing Ferguson's red-faced rosacea image, but it made Gao Han feel weak for no reason.

In these days, in broad daylight, I really can't say what is right and wrong.

"Morning, sir. Gao Han laughed and stepped forward.

"You're pretty early, too. 'Ferguson seems to be in a good mood.

Gao Han smiled and said, "Yes, I'm afraid you'll beat me, so come early and avoid you." ”

Ferguson was also amused, of course he knew what Gao Han meant.

Benzema was recommended to Ferguson by Gao Han, but at that time Manchester United felt that it was too expensive, and Ferguson finally chose Berbatov, but he didn't expect the Bulgarian striker to perform poorly.

After last season's Champions League final, Ferguson was determined to buy Benzema, but the club needed to raise a sum of money, but unexpectedly, it was given a head start by Gao Han.

"If you don't say it, I almost forgot. Ferguson looked fierce, "But don't hide, you can't hide." ”

"What do you mean?"

"What do you mean?" Ferguson raised his eyebrows and laughed, "Don't you know where your new home is?"

Gao Han frowned, he really didn't know that he hadn't been to Manchester at all these days.

"It seems to be a guy named Ao or something. ”

"Aldleiech. Ferguson smiled wryly.

How can there be such a person?

Millions of pounds to buy a house, but he didn't even know where the house was, was this still Gao Han he knew?

"Oh, yes, yes, yes, Aldriech. Gao Han suddenly realized, "But what does this have to do with you?"

But after the question was asked, Gao Han himself remembered again.

He vaguely remembered that Ferguson had said that he lived in Cheshire, could he have ......

"Remembered?" Ferguson smiled evilly, "My house is very close to your house, I want to find you, every minute, do you think you can still hide?"

"Hey, old man, don't scare me, believe it or not, I'm going to call someone to beat you up now?" Gao Han's face seemed to be written, I am not easy to mess with.

"If you don't believe me, just call me and try it. Ferguson laughed, too.

Gao Han pointed at the old man who refused to admit defeat, nodded and said, "Okay, you wait." With that, he turned around and left.

"Hurry up, I'll wait for you. ”

"There's a kind of you don't go, wait. Gao Han turned around and came back and threatened again.

"Why am I waiting for you here to see what you can do?"

This time, Gao Han just turned around and pointed at him, looking like I wanted you to look good, and continued to walk in the direction of the security room.

If there were media reporters at the scene, they would definitely break their glasses.

It's like two naughty little kids playing tricks, where is there still a little bit of the demeanor of a famous European handsome?

But when Gao Han walked away, Ferguson pondered, no.

How boring do I have to be to wait here for Gao Han to find someone to beat me?

What's more, Gao Han is not so boring.

I'm so stupid to wait for you!

Thinking about this layer, Ferguson laughed, knowing that he had been fooled, stepped on the accelerator deeply, boomed, and drove away.

Gao Han had just walked to the gate, heard the sound of the accelerator, turned around, saw the tail of the speeding car, and smiled bitterly.

It's sad enough to be a neighbor when you go to work, but you still be a neighbor after work, what kind of bad luck did you fall in?

Do you want to move?

…………

…………

On the first day of the team's training camp, all the members of the coaching staff arrived very early.

Because they all know that Gao Han will come to the training base early in the morning and arrange some of the training conditions of the day.

Now is the summer training camp, focusing on physical reserves, and Gao Han said in the meeting before that the three-four-three formation has high requirements for the players' running coverage, which puts forward higher requirements for the players' physical fitness, so summer preparation is very important.

Lorenzo Buenaventura is the best fitness coach in European football at the moment, and he is in charge of the team's fitness reserves throughout the summer, while Pedro Harrow is still in charge of goalkeeper training, and he has worked with Petr Cech during his time at Atletico Madrid, so there is no problem.

As for Sergio Garcia, who is still in charge of data analysis and intelligence gathering, he has also initially established a data analysis system at Manchester City, and has begun to improve it in preparation for the official use of the new season.

Steve Peters is still in charge of mental counseling, but when he first arrives at a team, he needs to get a grasp of the psychology of the players as soon as possible.

Head assistant coach Brian Kidd is in charge of training and assisting Gao Han in formulating game strategies, especially his familiarity with the Premier League, which Gao Han lacks.

In addition to these core coaching staff, Manchester City also has a series of other staff members, Gao Han has already met with them early, and they have also met with them to explain their requirements.

But there is one thing that has so far remained unresolved.

That's the captain of the team.

After this summer's purge, Manchester City's squad last season was in tatters, with few players left behind, including captain Richard Dunn.

Dunn has been with Manchester City for nine years, taking over the captain's armband from Distin in 2006 and captaining the team for three years, and has been a pillar of the Manchester City backline, but the problem is that the Ireland international does not meet Alpine's requirements for a centre-back, is too frizzy, does not work well enough at his feet, and does not have enough passing ability.

As early as some time ago, Gao Han had already talked to him and hinted that Dunn had been reminded that the coaching staff could not guarantee his chance to play after he stayed with the team, and it depended on his performance and whether he could fit into the team's tactical play.

And what Dunn meant at the time was that he wanted to give it a try.

It can be seen that he has feelings for Manchester City, and he really hopes that he can make a difference under Gao Han.

But Gao Han and the coaching staff have to carefully consider another question, that is, if Dunn can't play the main team, who should be the captain of the team?

After all, a team can't be led by a captain who has not been able to play for a long time, right?

What's more, in the Premier League environment, the captain's responsibility is very important, he must be a leader who can take on the responsibility of the team, if not as brave as Roy Keane and Vieira, at least be able to lead the team to defeat all strong opponents, which requires a lot of courage and courage from the players.

Who is suitable?

Many in the coaching staff have proposed different candidates, such as Cristiano Ronaldo, Petr Cech and others based on the length of time they have been in the team......

In short, there were all kinds of proposals, and even the coaching staff was mired in controversy.

After discussing it a few days ago, no result was reached, so everyone returned the hot potato to Gao Han's hands.

And this matter must be decided on the first day of the training camp.
