Chapter 169 Wonderful (Second Update)

When the reporters realized that they were all Rudy. After Gonzalez played it, it became a farce to dig out the secret behind the success of the constant victory. 89 Reading Network

All the media and journalists who have invested their energy and time in this area have become a joke.

There was no follow-up report, and the topic that had been hyped up by the media before cooled down so quickly, and then it was never seen again, as if the topic had never existed in the first place.

This is inexplicable to readers who are still waiting for the media to dig deeper into the secret behind the success of the ever-winning - why did it suddenly disappear?

They don't know that the media really don't have the face to continue reporting.

They were obviously praising Rudy. Gonzalez, even though their real purpose is only to fight Chang Win.

But after all, he was also helping Rudy. Gonzalez rose to prominence, and for Rudy. Gonzalez said that should be a good thing.

They've studied, Rudy. Gonzalez was once dissatisfied with Chang Sheng because he had taken his place as head coach, and he was still delusional about replacing him after Chang Sheng was firmly in the first team of Getafe.

The reporters thought that since there was such a big contradiction between the two people, it would be as long as they found Rudy. Gonzalez, he will tell the truth. At that point, Chang Sheng will either be ruined, lose his job, or both.

But I didn't expect Rudy. Gonzalez tricked them.

This left the journalists puzzled.

Is the relationship between the two people that good?

They think that the perennial winner will be Rudy. Gonzalez was brought to Valencia primarily to take advantage of Rudy's training abilities.

Which thought of Rudy. Gonzalez, in turn, played all the journalists!

Well, since Rudy. Gonzalez didn't cooperate, so that's all there was to it.

But reporters will continue to keep an eye on Chang Sheng, and they will not believe that they cannot find the secret behind Chang Sheng's success......

※※※

The whole team trains, conducts warm-up matches to inspect the training results, finds problems and corrects them in training, and then continues the warm-up games, looks for problems again, and continues to solve problems in training......

Time flies by in such a cycle.

It's the end of August. Chang Sheng and the club's general manager, Pitacc, set up for Monaco to attend the Champions League group draw for the new season.

This isn't the first time Chang Sheng has attended such a ceremony, as he went with Pitacci last season for the UEFA Cup draw.

Obviously, the UEFA Cup has received far less attention than the Champions League.

The same guy was the last time he went to the draw for the UEFA Cup, and the reaction of European journalists to him was muted.

But this time it was different, and from the moment they appeared at the venue, the reporters waiting outside the venue flocked to him.

This is the first time that a manager with an eastern face has appeared in the Champions League, so it's no wonder the media is paying so much attention.

The players of the Eastern face are not uncommon, but as an Oriental, a Chinese, being able to lead the team to participate in the Champions League as a head coach means something completely different.

As a player, you can have a hundred flowers and a hundred schools of thought, so you can see whites, blacks, yellows, and browns on the football field. Each race has its own advantages.

But surely you don't see a manager of any other colour in mainstream European football, right?

In European football, it's basically the world of white managers.

Black managers are rarely seen, and other races are completely extinct.

In fact, in the mainstream Western world, which is dominated by white people, most of the popular sports are dominated by white head coaches, not only in football, but also in basketball and rugby.

People of other colors can work as physical coaches, tactical coaches, and technical coaches in the team...... All kinds of coaches, but you just can't be a head coach.

It's a very invisible form of discrimination.

Usually no one cares, and no one thinks about it that much.

But if you look at how many of Europe's top five leagues are non-white managers? Prior to that, there was only one Ruud Gullit at Chelsea and one Tigana at Lyon and Monaco.

And at that time, Gullit was still a head coach with no formal coaching qualifications, he was a part-time head coach of the players.

Ruud Gullit's Chelsea played a rare and beautiful football, and at that time the media called Gullit's Chelsea a "sexy football", and Chelsea's results were much more impressive than before.

Tigana had coached Lyon and led them to a runners-up finish in the league, which was the best result in the club's history at the time.

He led the team to the league championship in Tigana, Monaco.

Later, he went to England to develop, and once helped Fulham win the League One title and be promoted to the Premier League.

But then he started to go downhill, and the mixed league became more and more low-end, and he had a brief period of glory in the Turkish league, and then he fell completely silent.

Later, he went directly to Barcelona and created Rijkaard, who created the Dream II team, and is considered the most successful head coach among people of color.

It's just that now, the limelight that should have belonged to Rijkaard has been stolen by Chang Sheng.

In fact, whether it is Ruud Gullit or Tigana, their achievements as managers are still justified in the eyes of the media, after all, they all come from football powerhouses, and they have been famous in football since their playing days, and the huge prestige accumulated in their playing days after direct coaching can help them get started. This is one of the reasons why Ruud Gullit and Tigana both had good results in their early days in charge.

This was true even for Rijkaard, who was one of the Dutch Three Musketeers and was a huge help from his playing days. At the very least, when he coaches Barcelona, he will not be unable to control the dressing room of the giants because of his lack of fame and prestige.

Other players are legends in football, isn't it a matter of minutes to clean up a few of your juniors?

But what about constant victory?

What about this sudden rise and birth?

He is a typical outlier.

Before a season, no one in Europe's mainstream sports media had heard of his name.

At that time, the perennial victory was still in Getafe, and his influence was limited to the Madrid region, and it was still very limited.

He participated in the UEFA Cup as the manager of Valencia last season, but the qualification for the UEFA Cup has nothing to do with him, and no one knows whether it is a good thing or a bad thing for such a nobody to come out to coach Valencia, so the media has paid little attention to him.

Maybe in a month, the head coach will be out of class? I really don't want to pay too much attention to the losers.

Unexpectedly, the head coach not only did not step down after a month, but led Valencia to the La Liga championship and became the champion coach! He is also the second non-white manager to win a major European league.

The first was Tigana, who won the Ligue 1 title in 1996-1997 with Monaco by a huge 12-point lead over second place.

And on the European stage, the young yellow coach has also performed very well.

He led Valencia to the quarter-finals of the UEFA Cup, where they were knocked out by the star-studded Inter Milan.

One season is enough to impress those who despised him before.

Then everyone found out that he was not even a professional player before, and for European football, he was a pink newcomer, with no connections, no fame, and no experience.

is such a three-nil personnel, and he has become the champion coach of Valencia!

It is even more difficult for a non-Caucasian person to achieve such results in this situation.

So the media started to pay attention to Chang Sheng.

This time, Chang Sheng enjoyed the star treatment.

But they, the European media, clearly don't know what Chang Sheng looks like.

Chang Sheng still remembers how the media snubbed him last season......

At the beginning, he was quite happy that he could also attend such an important occasion, and his heart was full of longing.

As a result, when I came to the scene, I was disillusioned.

This is despite the fact that he has already won a second division title and a Copa del Rey title in Spain.

But in European football, he's a complete nobody.

Yes, no one knows him here, no one cares about him, he doesn't matter here at all.

Even if he is the first Chinese manager in Europe, people are not interested in him.

China has never been a strong country in football, and the so-called weak country has no diplomacy, and the same is true in football.

Coming from a weak football country, he naturally has no one to pay attention to and no one cares.

But a season later, he used his efforts to turn the tide and when he reappeared at Monaco, he was surrounded by reporters.

Chang Sheng did not mean to meet the reporters' interview requirements.

"I don't give interviews." Chang Sheng said with a straight face. "My mind is on the lottery, so I'm not going to be interviewed until the results are in."

After saying that, he pushed away the few people who stood in front of him and walked into the venue with Pitacc.

A group of reporters looked at each other, but they didn't expect the Chinese head coach to have a little temper and dare to refuse their interview request so blatantly.

Does he know what kind of media he just rejected?

France Football, Team Newspaper, 442, Der Spiegel, World Football, Milan Sport, Torino Sport, Roma Sport, ...... These are the most popular media outlets in European football.

It is usually difficult to get so many media to take root and interview one person, and it is even more impossible to win interviews.

He actually refused!

The reporter of the "Marca" newspaper in the crowd of reporters couldn't help but say to his colleagues around him: "Come, let me introduce to you, Chang Sheng, Chang, the head coach of Valencia, Chinese, not yet thirty years old." ”

Hearing him say this, the reporters around him turned their heads to look at him and said in their hearts that of course we know that this is Valencia's head coach Chang Win, we also know that he is Chinese, and we also know that he is under 30 years old...... Do you still need to talk about this?

But the reporters of the newspaper "Marca" ignored the puzzled gazes of these reporters, and only smiled slightly.

"He's the weirdest manager in La Liga, and I think you're fully aware of that......" (To be continued.
