PS: The group number of this group is five, four, eight, three, five, six, eight, five, five, go to the group to talk about football.
Chen Zhun was afraid that he would expose his stuff and did not communicate too much with Prost, so he went back to prepare for today's training.
Chen Zhun trained in the morning mainly tactical training, and he completely followed the 442 tactical system of Leicester City's Italian tinkerer Claudio Ranieri in Southampton, based on rapid counter-attacks, supplemented by Italian-style close defense and high-pressing tactics in the front court, which were not very popular at the time. When Reed listened to Chen Zhun instilling tactics to the players, he admired Chen Zhun's tactical strength for a while. This set of tactics is all about tight defense, quick counterattacks, and lethal blows.
Just as Chen Zhun was meticulously watching the training of the players on the training ground, Chairman Rupert Lowe quietly came to the training ground.
"Winston, I've got you the players you want."
Chen Zhun heard a familiar voice behind him, and turned his head to see the young Vardy beside Rowe. At this time, Vardy's face was full of immaturity and youthfulness, and he looked at everything on the training ground with curiosity, and his eyes showed novelty, like a child seeing candy for the first time.
Lowe walked up to Chen Zhun with Vardy and introduced: "Jamie, this is David Winston, the manager of the Southampton club who asked you by name. ”
After listening to Luo Wei's words, Vardy's eyes were full of gratitude for Chen Zhun, and he held Chen Zhun with a trembling hand and said, "Thank you, boss, I will work hard." ”
Chen Zhun smiled and said, "Jamie, welcome to Southampton Club, I hope you can have a great time here." ”
Chen Zhun is going to put Vardy in the first team for training first, and then go to the youth team for game training when the youth team has a game. He's going to make Vardy his secret weapon for the new season.
Chen Zhun called the team's captain, Jason Dodd, and Chen asked Dodd to take Vardy to get acquainted with his teammates.
In the afternoon, Jamie Vardy officially started training with the first team. Vardy was full of spirit, fierce and fast in the afternoon's training, but his shooting skills were poor and he failed to capitalise on a couple of chances in front of goal. Players like Vardy are common in England, but with a certain tactical system, Vardy can bring out 200 per cent of his energy. That's the beauty of tactics. What Chen Zhun has to do now is to transform Vardy into England's future first striker. At this time, Chen Zhun thought of the apprenticeship mode in the FM Football Manager game. Chen Zhun thought of the best candidate. Kevin Phillips.
After the afternoon training, Chen Zhun found the first Englishman to win the European Golden Boot, Kevin Phillips. Now Kevin Phillips has become the big brother of the team. He is also the first choice of starting striker in Chen Zhun's mind.
"Hey, head, what are you looking for me?"
"I'd like to ask you what you think of this new Vardy."
'Well, this kid is very hard-working, very good running, and has good speed, good movement, and has the ability to be a good striker, but his shooting is terrible and it will hinder his development.
After listening to Kevin Phillips' comments on Vardy, Chen Zhun nodded affirmatively. continued: "Yes, I agree with you. That's why I came to you to ask you to help me train Vardy and pass on some of your skills and experience to Vardy in training. So that he can really be a striker as good as you. “
Kevin Phillips was a little surprised, but also delighted. He really hopes that there will be more coaches in the Premier League who dare to develop new English players, instead of buying foreign players everywhere. Kevin Phillips readily agreed to Chen's request.
While Chen Zhun was talking to Kevin Phillips, the chairman's secretary came to their side. The secretary told Chairman Chen Zhun that he had something to look for him. Chen Zhun had a hunch that it was Arneson's business.
Sure enough, Chen Zhun pushed open the door of the chairman's office and saw Frank Arneson and Rupert Rowe. Lowe told Chan that it took a lot of effort to get Arneson to Southampton. Lowe has also officially appointed Arneson as head of Southampton's academy.
Rupert Lowe introduced both sides after that. Chen Zhun took Arneson to his office. Chen Zhun knows that Arneson is well known in Europe, and if it weren't for the conflict with Tottenham Hotspur this time, he would not have come to a niche club like Southampton. Chen Zhun is also ready to tell Arneson all the youth training knowledge that he has led for 12 years, and then let Arneson build the Southampton Academy according to his ideas. The two had a heated conversation on the topic of youth training construction, and Chen Zhun told Arneson all the youth training knowledge that has been leading the world for 12 years. Arneson exclaimed incredulously, admired and called the club right. Arneson also instantly felt some admiration for this young man in his heart, he didn't expect the young David Winston to have such a high level of research in youth training. I don't have any previous concerns. Chen Zhun has also given Arneson the responsibility of managing the Southampton Academy, and he will also be responsible for scouting key players. Chen Zhun also knows why Arneson would want to leave Tottenham Hotspur, a matter of power. Because of the general power of the manager of the Premier League team, Arneson, who is used to the Eindhoven way of working, is very uncomfortable with this way of working and cannot use his skills in the Premier League. Chen Zhun clearly told Arneson that in this aspect of the academy, Chen Zhun will never interfere. In terms of scouting players, Chen Zhun is only responsible for planning the regions and division of the roster, and everything else is left to Arneson to do. This is also Chen Zhun reassuring Arneson, but it also makes Arneson understand that he does not blindly have rights, and in the Premier League, the head coach is the biggest, even if Chen Zhun has not so much power now. Arneson also knows in his heart that since he has stepped on the big ship of the Premier League, it is impossible to dominate the world like the Eredivisie, but Arneson also agrees with Chen Zhun's division of work.
After the two explained the division of labor, Chen Zhun took Arneson to meet the youth team head coach Prost and chief scout Rudick, as well as the director of the academy Matt Crocker, which also allowed Arneson to integrate into the Southampton club as soon as possible, after all, these people are important members that Chen Zhun will rely on in the future.
It's August 15th in the blink of an eye. Southampton will travel to Aston Villa tomorrow. In the Community Shield match that ended a few days ago, the history that Chen Zhun feared did not change. Arsenal still won 3-1 against Manchester United to claim their first title of the season, the Community Shield. Chen Zhun watched the game live at the Cardiff Stadium, and he was completely blown away. High-intensity physical confrontations, fast pace of play, dazzling individual technique. That's the spark from the Premier League's biggest clubs. Judging from the process and results of this game alone, Arsenal's road to defending the title seems to be smooth and smooth, but who would have thought that the Arsenal team has never won the Premier League championship since this season, and has completely become the most stable team in the race for the top four. This made Chen Zhun, a later man, also embarrassed.
When Chen Zhun watched this high-level game, he sighed in his heart: "I didn't feel so intense when I watched the Premier League game on TV before, but now I experience the atmosphere of the Premier League game, which is really eye-opening." Hopefully, Southampton won't lose too ugly when they meet these giants. ”
