In January 10, Bordeaux was the biggest winner of the 2009 French Football of the Year awards by French Football magazine, with Blanco named Best Coach and Gourcuff as Best Player.

Bordeaux's achievements are inextricably linked to the 44-year-old young coach Blank, who has built the team into a tenacious and resilient team at the top. In the 2008 Manager of the Year selection, Blank, known as the "President", lost to Arsenal manager Arsene Wenger, and the two scored very close at the time. This year, Blank was elected by a landslide, earning a staggering 112 points, twice as much as Arsene Wenger and just eight points away from a perfect score of 120.

If Blank is the "military advisor" of the Bordeaux team, Gourcuff, the core of the midfield, is the "commander" of the team. Gourcuff's impressive performances at the Stade delmas led to the decision to say goodbye to the San Siro and move to Bordeaux on permanent, with his big-picture vision and threading the needle to raise the team's fighting power to a notch.

Gourcuff was a bit out of time in Milan, of course it had a lot to do with his own ability, in Bordeaux, Blanco built a tactical system around him, but in Milan, this is not possible, the gap between his ability and Kaka has not given him enough attention from Milan, and it is a matter of course to be abandoned by Milan.

Now that the draw for the quarterfinals has been made, Gourcuff, who has played against Trapani, said something in an interview, he highly praised Trapani, and to be honest he admires Trapani's tactical play, and he also expressed this opinion in the interview.

"Trapani is different from any other team! They have a unique football philosophy, I like their style and I think they will be the toughest opponents of the season, but we won't throw in the towel and we want to go to the end! ”

Blanco himself is a defender but has led a team that is not conservative, with Bordeaux still top of Ligue 1 and the top scorer.

After learning the results of the draw, Blanco was actually a little excited and a little worried, this excitement is like the feeling he felt when he learned that he was separated from Bayern Munich and Juventus, he longed for the team to play against the top teams, he has always been very envious of Deschamps, Deschamps led Monaco to the Champions League final, led Trapani to win the league title, and last season he led Bordeaux to win the Ligue 1 title, but that was far from enough, because the gold content of Ligue 1 is not high.

Playing against top teams will give Bordeaux a lot of experience that will help them make a comeback next season.

Some of the worries were because he didn't believe his team would be the ultimate champions, the biggest test for the city of Trapani. He is an adult, and there is a myth of a dark horse, but now, he knows that it is becoming more and more difficult for a dark horse to survive in the Champions League, and it may not be possible to escape the second hurdle if he can avoid the first hurdle.

Trapani is such a rich and powerful team, don't look at Lyon is very tough at home, and he is not besieged by Trapani on the road, but there are fewer goals, and Trapani's fighting power cannot be ignored because of criticism from the outside world.

"I don't think we can take it lightly!" Blanco was disgusted by French journalists' remarks that Trapani was now in a difficult period due to internal and external troubles.

"They're on the same level as Barcelona, they're injured and they're not in good shape, but they're absolutely strong and I wouldn't be afraid to say that to anyone! I'm not intimidated and I think we guys should be happy because we don't often get the chance to play against a team of the highest level like Trapani! Even if we lose the game, I think we can increase our knowledge! ”

Blanco is very smart, first put himself in the position of an underdog, and the speech can be described as a different way, only straightforward and sincere, this kind of thinking is just buried in the hearts of many people, many players in Bordeaux may also feel honored because of such a fight, and some even can't wait to show their skills, hoping to get the favor of Trapani.

……

Although Trapani is smiling in his heart, he still has to be respectful and polite in his mouth, the club's senior management, including the players, have praised Bordeaux as a flower, Bielsa has not said anything, he has recently started to have a headache again, the team is not in good shape, not to mention, and he has suffered injuries, and what makes him feel that the players are separating from him.

The captain of the team, Toney, almost did not communicate with him, and Bielsa had to carry the pot, he did not have any appeasement measures after Tony lost his position, and he had a three-point temper, not to mention that Tony has always been respected by Hugo and is an old qualification of the team.

Tony didn't make waves in the team, but who is he, he is a spiritual leader, other teams see Tony with this attitude, some people who are not satisfied with Bielsa's current arrangement are naturally estranged from him, Bielsa has not paid attention to this aspect of the problem, and the coaching team is worried about him.

Barias wanted to persuade Bielsa, but he was not Bielsa's henchmen, Barias was still in the team after Bielsa's arrival, but now several have left the first team, and Lombardi, including Kameni's royal coach Nkono, has gone to the B team.

There's no why, it's just that it feels like Bielsa doesn't value their opinions as much as they used to, so it's better not to do it.

Pochettino and Berizzo and others have a good relationship with Bielsa, and after the training session that day, when everyone was ready to discuss the opponents for the weekend, Berizzo persuaded Bielsa to take some measures to reassure the players, especially since Suarez is now absent and he should talk to Tony.

Bielsa also has his own insistence, he doesn't think he has a problem.

"It's no longer what it used to be, sir!" Pochettino also said that he has a clear understanding of this, there must be mutual respect between players and coaches, the status of players is improving dramatically, and Trapani has a lot of old ministers, in the case of Evra, the top management has put pressure on Bielsa to change his tactics.

And Bielsa himself is also dissatisfied with some players, he thinks that the players' amateurism is too open, life is too rich, and he doesn't have all the energy to play football, and over time he also has some resentment in his heart.

Now it really confirms the saying that victory can cover everything, and without victory, everything will arise.

After a few words of persuasion, Bielsa obviously did not listen, but turned the topic around to another issue, that is, thinking about the future of the team, now it has entered the second half of March, the team has entered the final stage of attack on all fronts, Trapani is currently in second place, but the point difference from Inter Milan is not very large, it is completely possible to turn the tide of the battle, but Trapani's problem now is the lack of major generals.

Bielsa's own idea is to put all his attention on the Champions League, to be honest, the old boy who drew Bordeaux is still a little fluttering, Bordeaux don't look like a dark horse, awesome, but he Bielsa really didn't take Bordeaux seriously, he watched Bordeaux's video, and he really didn't think they had anything.

It will be very easy to enter the semi-finals, and the Champions League title is also very important to him, so he wants to put the league and re-evaluate the Champions League, this idea is very suitable for the current reality, and it is true that Trapani's midfield may encounter great difficulties, Vucinic He categorically will not use it, Suarez is injured again, which means that he has two less strikers, and it is somewhat difficult to deal with the semi-finals of the Italian Cup, the Champions League, and the league.

The idea was unanimously endorsed by the coaching staff, even Barrias, and it seemed that they had to make a trade-off, with the Champions League being the best decision.

But there is a problem with this decision that it cannot be known to the higher-ups, who all know that the higher-ups want to catch it all.
