Although the next league opponent is not strong, there is one person in it that Vincent still attaches great importance to, that is, Benitez who should have sat in Vincent's current position, he led Tenerife to a successful promotion last year, according to the history he should have taken Cooper's class to Valencia, and now with Vincent, Benitez can only continue to stay in Tenerife and continue his island life.

Fan Shang flew to the Canary Islands for the second time in a month, and he didn't know what Spain thought, so he let this island go to Africa to participate in La Liga, Fan Shang felt that they might as well run a small league and send good players to Spain, it was too far.

In fact, it is not the first time that Tenerife has met Vincent, he has taught in continental competitions when he was still in Bordeaux, but at that time Tenerife has already begun to decline, otherwise he would not have been promoted this season.

Benitez's tactics are still so on-the-spot, what tactics are used when encountering players, just like the current Tenerife, most of these players are from the previous team's youth training, and the original team's glory days The style of defensive counterattack is deeply rooted in the cell, so now Benitez is also using a defensive counterattack strategy.

This time at home, Benitez gave up counterattacking and defended with all his might, hoping to stop Valencia's progress at home.

But it's a pity that Benitez thought too much, in the first half his swing bus tactics did make Valencia a little confused, that is because today Vincent did not let Tony play, but in the second half when the situation could not be opened, Vincent replaced Toney, who had rested for several games in a row, broke the deadlock on the field with a header in the 85th minute, and also allowed Valencia to successfully take away three points from away.

Vincent praised Benitez in the post-match press conference, believing that he is a manager who is proficient in tactics, and that Tenerife's tactics were successful today, but if the height of their back line was improved, the result might be different, and he also stressed that he admires Benitez and hopes to work with him if he has the opportunity.

However, Fan Shang's words are indeed a bit exaggerated, it is all about how the head coach cooperates, anyway, the media has come out to mean that Fan Shang wants to invite Benitez to be an assistant coach. Fan Shangcai doesn't care what they mean, in fact, Fan Shang means this, if there is such an assistant coach, it will be easier for him to take care of himself in the future. This sentence is just casually said, who knows that the next day the media hyped up, saying that Vincent wanted Benitez to become Valencia's assistant coach.

Fan Shang doesn't care, but Benitez hates Fan Shang, he feels that although his achievements are not as good as Fan Shang, he is also the head coach of La Liga clubs, this kind of words that want him to be an assistant can be written in the newspaper with such fanfare, obviously he didn't take himself seriously, this feud is over, but Fan Shang doesn't know it yet, he is now thinking about how to deal with the next opponent.

The League Cup has entered the third round of elimination, the first two rounds of Valencia opponents were not strong, but this round Valencia met Scottish old powerhouse Celtic, this Celtic eliminated from the group stage of the Champions League this year, in the Champions League they have beaten Juventus and other strong teams.

The Celtic style of play has been the same for decades, it is hard, and the tough style of traditional Scottish football is vividly reflected in them, so Fan Shangzhi is not worried about their strength, but is worried about whether these thin arms and legs who play Valencia with this kind of team will be injured.

It turns out that Fan Shang seems to be overly worried, Celtic's style of play is relatively tough, but they don't play dirty, there are no deliberate fouls, tackles and pull people These things are put on the bright side, straight to the point.

It was much better, the delicate skills of the Valencia players played a key role in this game, and Valencia scored two goals in the whole game, almost all of which were passed into the goal. To be honest, Valencia's players don't want to have more physical contact with strong men like Celtic, and the combination of passing and cutting with each other has become Valencia's first choice for attack, constantly making one-two passes.

In the end, the score of 2:0 at home Fan Shang was very acceptable, but Fan Shang felt that he had to change the formation when he went to the away game, and today the Celtics were played so badly by Valencia, and he must rely on his body to come back when he returns to the home court, and Fan Shang must be mentally prepared for a tough encounter.

Valencia continue to make a big run in the league, away to Real Sociedad, who are now the kind of team that is worried about relegation but has some difficulty in breaking into the top 10, and their goal is to reach European competitions every year, but they have hardly achieved it.

Valencia did not give Real Sociedad a chance at all in this game, and the Valencia players who have adapted to the high pressing began to slowly improve their possession, and their possession rate reached 65% in this game, Real Sociedad's attack almost did not cause any trouble to Valencia's backline, but Valencia was still a little lacking in the goal, such a high possession rate, and the final score was only 1:0, which made Fan Shang a little dissatisfied.

The problem Fan Shang has also found, in just a few games, these frontcourt players have begun to pass the ball, they don't shoot when they have a chance to shoot, and they have to pass the ball to find their teammates, Fan Shang doesn't understand why Valencia's situation came so quickly, and Barcelona had this situation in the late stage of Guardiola.

However, since there is a problem and it needs to be solved, Fan Shang is looking for a solution in training this time, and Fan Shang has rarely participated in training before, except for tactical training.

But since the problem was discovered, Fan Shang will strengthen his role in the group confrontation, only as soon as a player passes the ball at the place where the shot is made, Fan Shang will stop the game, and then go to the field to tell the players, at first the players don't care, but then this kind of intermittent game really makes them a little unbearable, Fan Shang's opinion was adopted by them, and consciously began to strengthen the probability of shooting in a reasonable position.

After a few days of doing this, several midfielders will no longer go into the danger zone and continue to pass the ball in training, so they will choose a better way to deal with it.

However, it was too late to consolidate, Valencia travelled to Scotland in midweek for the second leg of the UEFA Cup against Celtic, and although they won by two goals at home, Vincent still did not underestimate Celtic.
