Chapter Twenty-Nine: Chase Out the Thorns
The difference between the second day and the first day was that Vincent did not speak, and the training began directly after the players arrived at the training ground on time. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 After jogging for a few laps, Info walked into the training ground again with the same bald head as yesterday.
"Mr. Prunier, I already made my request yesterday, do you want me to repeat it again?" Fan Shang looked at Prunier with a somewhat ugly face.
Prunier shrugged, nodded, and didn't answer Fan Shang, and went straight to warm up.
"Mr. Prunier, can you answer my question? You're at least half an hour late, you know? The more Fan Shang's performance was low, the more angry he became.
"Yes, I see." In reply, Prunier continued to walk forward as if nothing had happened.
Fan Shang's eyes swept over the players and coaches around him, meaning you see, this thing has such an arrogant attitude towards me.
"Okay, Mr. Prunier, where are you going now?" Vincent stopped Prunier
"Train" Prunier to bypass Vincent
"Okay, I said yesterday that you were one minute late and you ran five laps, now you're 30 minutes late, run 15 laps and then start training." Fan Shang said
"Me? 150 laps? Are you kidding. Prunier looked at Fan Shang playfully, "I've been late, what's wrong?" Can you fire me? I'm here to train to save face. ”
"Okay, I don't need you to give me face, now I'll give you two choices to go lap or go home. Go to the laps and you can continue training, and if you go home now you will never be in my lineup! "Fan Shang originally wanted to say never to appear in front of me, but if he moves to another Ligue 1 team, he will not be seen at that time.
Prunier pointed at Vincent, "You're driving me away?" Did you know that I was the team's main centre-back? ”
"I don't care who you are, you only have two paths now, run laps or walk." Fan Shang said firmly
"Okay, you wait" Prunier pointed at Fan Shang and rushed out of the training ground in a huff.
The players and coaches on the training ground all looked at Fan Shang, and Fan Shang turned his head to look at them, "What are you looking at?" Do any of you want to go with him? I will not stop you. Fan Shang swept the warm-up players, "If you don't train quickly, you can't waste time now." ”
Fan Shang didn't know if he was making an example of him now, or if Prunier gave him a blow to the head.
After training, Theo called Vincent to his office.
"Fan Shang, you're still a little impulsive." Tyo said
"I can't help it, if there is a special exception for others to follow, I can't manage the team." Fan Shang complained bitterly
"Yes, Willian is not right, but Willian is also the team's main central defender, the strength is very good, and the arrogance is understandable." Theo advised, "You two better have a good talk." ”
"Louie, you should also know that the decision of the head coach in the team is the most authoritative, and what I have said cannot be changed, unless he can apologize to me in front of the whole team tomorrow." Fan Shang was very resolute in this matter.
"I'll talk to William, what if he doesn't apologize?" Tyo's asked tentatively
"Then you can find him a home, didn't you hear that Manchester United think he is good? Let him go to England and play with those rugby players. "The Premier League in '95 was still in its infancy, and most clubs still followed the English tradition of long passing, with frequent physical contact and large movements. Most of the technically delicate French look down on the English league where they play physically.
"Well, I respect your decision." Theo didn't want to fall out with Vincent, who was recommended by him, and if the two had a falling out over Prunier the next day, it would be a big joke. Téo had no choice but to decide to get Prunier away.
Three days later the Bordeaux club announced that Willem. Prunier is on loan at Manchester United for £10,000 for three months. It is unlikely that Prunier will return to Bordeaux in three months' time, and he will have to transfer as long as Vincent is in the first day.
After getting rid of the prickly Prunier, Vincent is about to play his first Ligue 1 game, Bordeaux at home to Guingamp on 9 January.
Guingamp, as a promoted horse this season, performed well in the first half of the season, ranking eighth, and they mainly adopted a defensive counter-attack strategy, with a score of 0:0 in seven of the first 22 rounds, which also shows that although they defended well, they were really lackluster in attack.
Fan Shang believes that although Bordeaux is not as good as Guingamp in the current ranking, the overall strength of the team is definitely stronger than Guingamp. Now Fan Shang is worried about whether the team will attack or defend. The attacking Fan Shang was afraid that the team would not be able to break the Guingamp bus, and the defensive Fan was afraid that the players would scold him behind his back after the draw. After thinking about it for a long time, Fan Shang gritted his teeth and stomped his feet, and decided to move forward bravely without fear of difficulties, so as to respond to all changes without change.
At four o'clock in the afternoon of January 9, at the Parc de la Récourt, the home stadium of Bordeaux, Bordeaux ushered in the 23rd round of Ligue 1 against the Guingamp team.
Guingamp doesn't have any big names and has the same decent 442 squad as usual, but this 442 is mainly on defense, and their two forwards have only scored five goals so far this season combined.
Bordeaux lined up the 451 formation for this game, which was the most common formation used by Vincent when he was at the U19s, and it was also to defend and counterattack.
Goalkeeper: Gaitan. Yuar, four defenders: Vicente. Lizarazu, Jean. Luc. Dogan, Jacob. Hansen and Giofrey? Toyes, midfielder, double midfielder: François. Gernay and Daniel. Dudière, left and right wings: Richard? Witzger and Kastant, Zinedine Zidane in the midfield, Christopher in the single striker. Dugarry. This is already the strongest lineup that Fan Shang can come up with.
Before the players came on the field, Fan Shang repeatedly emphasized that the tone of the game was defense. In the counterattack, the ball should be excessively at Zidane's feet, not seeking speed, requiring quality, and having a success rate. Although the players all nodded, Fan Shang didn't know how much he could execute on the field. After a few words of encouragement, the players are ready to play. Fan Shang grabbed Zidane, "Qi Zu, whether you can win this game or not depends on you, don't be blind when you counterattack, and strive for a hit." ”
"Yes, I know," Zidane nodded to indicate that he did.
While waiting for the start, Fan Shang was still up and down in his heart, he had no confidence in the players on the field now, in fact, he also had no confidence in himself, he was really afraid that these players on the field would not listen to the command. In Fan Shang's anxiety, the referee blew the whistle for the start of the game.
Today's kick-off was Guingamp, after the kick-off Guingamp players poured the ball backwards, while Bordeaux had only Dugari alone in the opposing half, Zidane was near the center circle, and the rest of the players were all in their own half, strictly adhering to the 451 formation.
A stone fell in Fan Shang's heart, and he suddenly had a feeling in his heart that it was really good to be a head coach.
