The media fell into the well at this time, and Magath was not surprised. As a coach, Magath has always been clear that he is not the one the media likes. Compared to many of his peers, Magath has always seemed very different from others, whether it is only in the Bundesliga or in the world, his enemies are not a few.

He has been a coach in the Bundesliga for many years, and he is also a coach who really has championship honors, and after so many years and when he is at a low point, basically no one is willing to say a few good words about himself. But more often, when he thinks of his miserable life, he doesn't think it's his responsibility, and more often, in his opinion, he doesn't mix well, because the media has no ability to distinguish and doesn't know who is a really good coach.

The media is a very strange thing, and it's hard to know what they identify with. There are some personable managers, who speak elegantly and have a gentle personality, they are admired by the media, and people like Wenger and Ancelotti are called handsome by the media, which can be said to be due to their personal charm. Some managers with extreme personalities, who do not choose to speak and do their own thing, have also received great attention from the media, Mourinho and Klopp, are such people. And there are some managers with excellent skills and deep scheming, a football team that was originally at a low point, can be managed by them into a long-lasting giant - Manchester United's Alex Ferguson, Juventus's Lippi, they are not lacking in the respect of others, and they are also considered outstanding coaches. Football is a big circle, people with different personalities can always find their favorite players, teams, coaches' styles, no matter what kind of people they are, there is no shortage of supporters, the media has thousands of mouths, so the players they admire are never the same. However, no matter what the media, there has never been any praise for Magath as a person.

He has always been questioned. He was authoritarian, unreasonable, brutal, and many of his tactical ideas were out of step with the times, and he was always considered a freak in the football world, and it was difficult to get people to agree with him. Unlike the arrival of other famous coaches, the team is happy for the possible champion, and other mediocre coaches come to the team and worry about possible failure, every time he goes, the players are worried about whether they will be tired and unbearable, and the team is worried about whether their squad will be expanded by one or two times at once, and the media are betting on what new training techniques he wants to develop, or which players from third world countries he has taken a fancy to, this kind of coach is also unique among all coaches.

The teams he once coached basically fell out with him. Because of his character, he quarreled with many former colleagues or media critics. All the while, he was a weirdo, the media hated him, the team hated him, and the players hated him even more. It seems that in the coaching profession, he is a real loner.

And perhaps it is precisely because he has experienced too many farces that Magath has a different feeling for Wolfsburg. He won two titles here, and this is where he coached in the second palace. He was able to get the favor of the good people back then, and his success here has a lot to do with his success here, he once left here to pursue higher honors, but in the end he chose to return to coach here, for him, Wolfsburg is different from other places, other places fighters can not accommodate him at all, and here, sometimes, he can feel some unimaginable warmth.

It's a sentiment he's never mentioned, at least for his players, he's reluctant to talk about it. He has always found it a little ridiculous to say anything like that he loves his team. Everyone is obviously working for money and fighting for their own fame, but if you have to say anything about love, it's just boring. As a football coach, he doesn't think it's fun to be hippie and laugh with the players all day long, in his opinion, the team's results are everything, and with the results, it doesn't matter what you love or not. If you don't have results, what's the point of having a deep relationship with the team?

In the final analysis, competitive football is still a commercial competitive sport, without business, without competition, any feelings are deceitful. At that time, Milan also claimed to be like a big family. But look at the appearance of Kakaso's salary, this can only deceive ghosts, and even more so now, the knight's table has become a meeting of African tribal chiefs, what kind of big family, no athletic results and money, what is the point?

He never thought he was wrong. But it is precisely because of his ideas that many times, his team can only rely on good results to sustain itself. Once his team's results start to slip, many times the team will face all kinds of unexpected crises. He is used to the fact that the players do not have a deep relationship with the team, they refuse to work hard at critical moments, or when the team is in crisis, and the transfer becomes ambiguous.

And this time, what happened to Wolfsburg can be said to be very similar to those times. And for this kind of encounter, he also thinks it's time to encourage the players. It's just that his encouragement to the team is still as simple as ever, and in the locker room, his words are still quite concise.

"Guys, we've got no hope for the league this season. We said from the beginning that our goal was not to win the championship, and now we can proudly say that we will not win it. And for us, the only thing we can work for this season is the Champions League, which is the only thing we need to focus on in the next games, and it is all our energy. Of course, we wouldn't have played as badly in the league as Schalke did that year. But I believe we can be like them, in the Champions League, go straight and get the best results. ”

In Magath's view, the best doping for the players is the stimulation of results. He doesn't like warm encouragement or encouragement to the players, and the comfort of players such as Mandzukic who has not played well, and the comfort of injured players is even more boring in his opinion. In his opinion, encouraging players should be the best reason to use results as a motivation, and in his opinion, this is also the best reason to keep Wolfsburg going.

In the locker room, Magath was in front of the players, blindly agitating. Listening to his encouragement, the mood of the players is also mixed. Mandzukic looked blank and couldn't see any emotion, and Turan didn't say a word, as if he wasn't very happy. For this somewhat paranoid guy, the players can hardly be said to be satisfied.

For his words, Gao Shunyao could only smile bitterly. He doesn't think that's what the players need right now. Mandzukic blamed himself very much after the game, and he needed comfort, not being told, that his mistake had led to the end of the team's league game. Magath is a person who really can't handle interpersonal relationships, and with such a way of dealing with it, it's no wonder that his team can become stronger but difficult to maintain.

But even so, Gao Shunyao still felt that what he said made some sense.

The reason is because during this period of time, Gao Shunyao's mood is not very good: on the one hand, the results of the club are not very good, and on the other hand, the news from the national team also makes him unhappy. During this period, the world preliminary round on the European side has reached the most critical stage, and the lineup for next year's World Cup will be determined immediately after the play-offs. The Chinese team is also in the Asian Cup qualifiers at this moment, preparing for the Asian Cup that will come soon after the World Cup.

During the entire Asian Cup qualifying stage, Gao Shunyao did not participate. He had already agreed with Coach Gao that he needed to rest during this time, so he would not go back to the national team to participate in these games. He originally thought that even if he didn't go to such a game, there would be no problem. It is difficult for the Chinese team to win the Asian Cup, but it is not too difficult to qualify for the finals, but who knows, it is this qualifier, and the Chinese team played quite badly.

Although Gao Shunyao did not go to the national team to play, in private, he was also paying attention to the national team's results. In the group stage, he also noticed that the national team's results have passed five games so far, and they are still third in the group. Although there is still one more game, the Chinese team still has the possibility of a Jedi counterattack, but that away game against Iraq, no matter how you look at it, there is little hope. Of course, even if it falls to the third place in the group, the Chinese team still has a chance to compete for the qualification, but thinking that the Chinese national team has reached this point in his absence, Gao Shunyao is also quite depressed.

Looking at their results, Gao Shunyao always felt that Coach Gao did not do his best. Sometimes he even wonders if Coach Gao didn't do his best in these competitions: for Coach Gao, entering the World Cup finals, he is actually equivalent to winning the gold medal without death. No matter what happens to him in the future, people will no longer question him. And for him, after the World Cup, it is very likely that he will leave the team, and when he played in the Asian Cup, the Chinese team was not coached by him anyway, and what it became had nothing to do with him. Gao Shunyao always suspects that it is precisely for this reason that he does not pay attention to the Asian Cup at all, and purely uses these games to practice and prepare for the World Cup.

Gao Shunyao himself is not opposed to preparing for the World Cup, but he knows very well in his heart that no matter how hard he works in the World Cup, he is afraid that there will be no good results. And if he can score a goal in the World Cup and achieve a zero breakthrough, he has to give up an Asian Cup, which in his opinion is always a loss.

If Coach Gao really thinks like that, Gao Shunyao can only say that what he did is too undeserved. However, things have not been confirmed yet, and the Chinese team does have a chance of qualifying, so it is difficult for him to say anything. Just thinking about what happened over there, his heart was inevitably irritated. Coupled with the club's unsatisfactory league games, he has always had some thoughts of wanting to find an opponent and vent well.

And Magath's proposal can be said to be exactly in line with his ideas. Since the league is no longer good, then in the Champions League, no matter what you say, you must get back to the field. After all, for Gao Shunyao, this is also the only goal to pursue this year.
