After a month of Taoguang recuperation, Nan Xiao and the three of them have a superficial understanding of the player lists, team tactics and playing styles of the other 19 teams in the Premier League; During this time, there were also several major events that happened for the club. Pen | fun | pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ

The most important of these is Sunderland's official announcement that Nan Shaw will replace Englishman Sam Allardyce as the team's new manager; So although Nan Xiao has not coached the team to play a game, he has already swept dozens of records in British football, such as the first head coach from Asia in the history of the Premier League, the youngest head coach in the history of the Premier League, and the manager with the least coaching experience in the history of the Premier League......

In addition, the team also negotiated several transfers approved by Nan Xiao during this time, namely:

Borek. Dokar, £3 million, from Sparta Prague;

Walter. Elviti, £750,000, from Banfield;

Miller. Jedinac, £7 million, from Crystal Palace;

Carlos, £10 million, from Atletico Mineiro;

Josh. Murphy, £11 million, from Norwich City;

Zhang Xiuwei, 300,000 pounds, from Tianjin Quanjian;

Kolo. Toure, free transfer, from Liverpool;

Halilovich, on loan, from Barcelona.

At the same time, Nan Xiao also released three players and recovered about 8 million pounds of funds; Among them, the Italian international striker Giaccherini, who Nan Xiao was unwilling to let go, finally transferred to Serie A team Napoli for 5 million pounds because of homesickness, but what made Nan Xiao a little comforted was that the transfer fee more than doubled from the initial 2 million pounds.

Conca still didn't accept the team's invitation in the end, which Nan Xiao regretted, but he didn't take it to heart, because he didn't have time to regret it, and he wanted to use this time to do something more meaningful.

The 20 million pounds summer transfer budget provided by the owner of Sunderland FC, that is, Nan Xiao's father, Nan Yicheng, has little left, even if Nan Xiao wants to buy some more players he likes, he can only be strong and the balance is insufficient, so at the press conference a week ago, in the face of reporters' questions about the club's finances, Nan Xiao can only regretfully say that the transfer door of our team has been closed.

Sunderland have undergone a series of personnel changes and the club's latest first-team squad is as follows:

Goalkeeper:

No. 1, Mannone;

No. 13, Pickford;

Fullback:

No. 2, Jones;

No. 3, Van Aanholt;

No. 16, O'Shea;

No. 20, Toure;

No. 23, Corne;

No. 27, Kirchhoff;

Midfielder:

No. 5, Elviti;

No. 6, Cattermole;

No. 7, Larson;

No. 8, Rodwell;

No. 10, Docal;

No. 13, Khazri;

No. 14, Watermore;

No. 15, Jedinac;

No. 19, Halilovich;

No. 21, Gucci;

No. 28, Zhang Xiuwei;

No. 33, Murphy;

Striker:

No. 9, Bolini;

No. 18, Defoe;

No. 35, Carlos.

The third important thing is that Sunderland FC has signed a contract with Feiyue Sports from China for the exclusive broadcast of the game in China; Feiyue Sports is a sports brand invested and founded by Nan Yicheng, but Nan Xiao doesn't know anything about it, and the reason why Nan Yicheng didn't tell him must have his own plans.

The above are the three things that have been more important to Nan Xiao in the past month, and for You Lu, who is in London at the moment, there is only one important thing, that is, she learned a series of news about Nan Xiao!

She never thought that she would really get news about him again, let alone know him in this way, and his identity was so unattainable, he was like a bright star in the night sky, and the only thing she could do was to quietly look up.

At 8:55 a.m., 23 people had gathered on the turf of Sunderland's Stadium of Light, including the team's assistant coach Bracewell and the first-team players who will be attacking Sunderland in the new season.

Among the people on the court at the moment, only assistant coaches Bracewell and Zhang Xiuwei have seen Nan Xiao, so everyone else is quite curious about this new Chinese coach, so they began to talk in groups; Zhang Xiuwei faced all the foreigners around him, and his English was not very good, so he couldn't talk, so he had to stand alone and watch his teammates joke with each other.

Five minutes later, Nan Xiao walked out of the lounge on time, stepped on the green turf, and stood in front of the players. The players standing opposite Nan Xiao were all looking at the young Chinese wearing a shirt with the club logo in front of them, and they had their own thoughts in their hearts.

At this time, Bracewell stood beside Nan Xiao and said loudly to the players around him: "This is the new head coach of the club, Mr. Nan Xiao from China, everyone applauds and welcomes." ”

The players present are all top athletes, and their physical conditions are quite good, so the applause is also explosive, and the voice is so loud that the applause is loud, Nan Xiao smiled and waited for the applause to subside, and then said: "It's a pleasure to be able to come to Sunderland Club and work with all the excellent players, first of all, it is necessary to let everyone know that I am a person who does everything, so no matter who has any problems in the future, you can come to me at any time, and the door of my office is open for you at any time." ”

After another burst of thunderous applause, Nan Xiao asked, "What about the captain?" ”

"Coach." Before Nan Xiao finished speaking, he saw a white man with a flat head and a sturdy figure walking out of the team in response, standing straight in front of Nan Xiao.

"Cattermole, after my words are over, everyone will immediately have a ten-minute preparation activity, and after the preparation activity, the 20-lap physical recovery training will begin, and I will be waiting for everyone in the conference room."

"Okay, Coach." Catmoore replied sharply.

The first day after returning from vacation was a high-intensity training, and Nan Xiao's actions were clearly to give the players a dismount, grace and power, which was originally an important measure for the Chinese kings to govern the country and secure the country.

After Nan Xiao, Shen Chao and Chen Mingshuo drank three cups of coffee each in the conference room, they heard a sound of footsteps outside the door, and Bracewell and Cattermmore walked into the conference room with the players one after another, and sat at the conference table in turn; The 20-lap jogging was nothing to these professional footballers, but today was the first day of returning from vacation, and the body had not yet recovered to its best condition, so Nan Xiao saw that most of them had obvious respite, and only Defoe, Koné, Jedinak and Zhang Xiuwei still did not change their faces, considering that the Tianjin Quanjian team that Zhang Xiuwei played for before was in the middle of the season, the physical condition was maintained well, and the other three people could see that their physical fitness was indeed very good. And when I am on vacation, I always arrange my own training and keep my body in good shape as always.

After the players were calmed down, Nan Xiao introduced the team's new technical director Shen Chao and new stadium manager Chen Mingshuo. He pulled the tactical board standing behind him, picked up the black marker in the board slot, and continued: "In the new season, our tactical core is defensive counterattack, and the main formation has two sets, one is the 4411 formation, and the other is the 4231 formation. In the face of the strength and our equal, we adopt a second set of formations, with the opponent's bayonet to fight the real knife, improve the speed of the ball, increase a lot of off-ball running, and ensure that the team will always occupy the advantage in numbers in a small space; At the same time, no matter what kind of formation, we must ensure that there are two stable points of the ball in the team, which is the so-called dual-core drive, and send the ball to the feet of the core players in the shortest time after winning the ball, and the core players can choose to control the rhythm or directly behind the opponent according to the situation on the field, forming a rapid counterattack ......"

Nan Xiao combined with the continuous writing and drawing on the tactical board, and clearly presented all the tactical play styles in his heart about the new season in front of the players; Shen Chao and Chen Mingshuo's admiration for Nan Xiao is beyond words, they didn't expect Nan Xiao to have such a deep and clear understanding of the tactical concept of football and the handling of details, as if they had forgotten for a while that the person standing in front of them was a good brother they had known for many years, but a football master standing on top of the world; At the same time, after Nan Xiao's detailed explanation, the assistant coaches and players present also began to gradually have a trace of admiration for this young coach from China, they knew that although the coach in front of him was young, although he did not have any coaching experience, his ability was obvious to all, and he also had his own very unique views on the tactical concept of football, and even some of them had never been in contact with before; There is a saying in China that "as soon as an expert makes a move, he will know if there is one", and now after Nan Xiao talked eloquently, the doubts that everyone present had in their hearts an hour ago have disappeared like the clear sky at the beginning of the day.

However, although Nan Xiao is talking about the truth, in the final analysis, it is still on paper, and it still takes time to slowly investigate what kind of actual combat ability this young man who is only a primary school student in the coaching world.

In such anticipation, Nan Xiao's first coaching as a football coach also came quietly, and in the first warm-up game before the new season, Sunderland welcomed the Eredivisie powerhouse at home, The Hague, and the time was in ...... Tomorrow!
