The training in July is already halfway over. The players are well aware that it is almost time for a friendly to play. The main team of the new season was decided in several friendly matches, and the players are also eager to show themselves, wanting to impress the coach and get more opportunities with their performance.

Therefore, during this time, they trained the most seriously.

"When you play a ball like this, you need to think more about how to pass it directly to your teammates, but more about believing in your team-mates' running ability, stretching the arc of the ball, and letting the ball land a little bit further back. Generally speaking, players who are confident in themselves like to rush to the front point, pass short, the ball speed is fast, easy to hit the opponent by surprise, and is loved by the header master, so when defending, the front point is the opponent's priority. However, if you pass to the back post, you can better give a chance to a teammate who is in a good position......"

On the training ground, Rui Costa explained the skills of kicking free kicks to Yaya Toure, and secretly sighed in his heart that Li Bin's arrangement was really bold.

Generally speaking, there is a stereotype in people's thinking, and people think that white players have better technical ability, and free kicks or other things are mostly done by white players. It's not uncommon for black players to take free kicks, but for the most part, it's mostly Brazilian mixed-race or Dutch blacks. Everyone believes that the players who come out of the football power are better than the players of the football weak country, but it is still relatively rare for African players to be the main penalty takers.

However, in Parma, Li Bin did not make Rui Costa with better skills, Giuseppe Rossi or Arshavin as the first penalty taker, and he chose to let Yaya Toure take the free-kick.

Without Rui Costa, Rui has nothing to oppose. He is 33 years old, and he has long passed the time to compete with others to win, and he can see and support Li Bin's desire to cultivate players, but he is still surprised by such training efforts.

Li Bin is really supportive of this Yaya Toure......

"But isn't this kind of free throw not suitable for use in the giants? If the big teams have good headers, they also prefer to let us play the front spot, right? For example, Arsenal, they have Campbell, they will get used to rushing, right? ”

Yaya Toure listened to his teachings and opened her mouth to ask questions. And his question made Rui sigh.

Rui was not a fool, and he could see that behind Yayatu's calm face and hard work, there were hidden ambitions and intentions. This big black man is very different from other black people. He doesn't like to laugh, he doesn't mess around, he doesn't have so many undisciplined thoughts or habits, he has a strong sense of purpose, which is to be the best player he can be - such ambition and purpose are extremely rare. The same genius, the same desire to go to the big club, Rossi's little intention is all written on his face, and Toure is always silently prepared and never leaks - but Rui seems to have a better chance of Toure succeeding.

This man has a brilliant mentality. Although he was born in a weak football country, although he was not favored in his early years, and although he was discriminated against because of his skin color, his own efforts have never stopped.

It's a stark contrast to Cannavaro Jr. also had an older brother who was more brilliant than himself, and little Cannavaro almost sank for it, but it didn't take long for Yaya Toure to catch up. He was not without pressure in his heart, and the Arsenal that refused to take him in back then were still remembered by him, but he was not impatient, discouraged, or had problems because of this, but walked step by step.

Such people are the most terrible.

Wouldn't it be nice if he could stay...... Rui sometimes likes his perseverance and unyielding character, but he also knows that the future of the picture class definitely does not belong to Parma, he wants a lot of things, and Parma can't satisfy him.

After all, this is not the time of the year...... Rui is sometimes helpless about this. He still remembers when he arrived in Florence, he played ambitiously with Batistuta and Toldo. At that time, they all believed that they could create miracles, even if Fiorentina was the weakest of the seven sisters, they could win the championship, but nowadays, when playing football, there are a few who don't dream of a big club......

"The affairs of the wealthy family, we will talk about it later. It's better to think more about Parma now. ”

Rui's words made Toure laugh, "It's not in the way, our coach, I don't object to me saying this, sometimes I go to him and ask, and he still points me out." ”

Rui also knew this in his heart. Li Bin must have seen that Yaya Toure is an ambitious person, but Li Bin did not have any idea of suppressing Yaya Toure, but instead cultivated him well. Li Bin didn't mention the word loyalty, and he encouraged the ambition of the players.

At this point, he is really a good coach, but Li Bin does not have any suppression of players like Yaya Toure, but for Arshavin, his approach is a little mean.

Arshavin is a genius – Rui Costa knew that from the moment he entered the team. Of course, his personality is a little worse, although his ability is strong, but he really doesn't work hard enough, he is not serious enough, when he plays, he is not focused enough, and he likes to play with a small temper, but these problems, in Rui's opinion, are not too big a problem, but this is not forgiven by Li Bin.

"I'll leave nothing else at once - but I'm not satisfied with your medical exam, and you need to train with Borg in the short term to get your own physique better. I'm very direct – if you don't have 120 minutes, I'm not going to let you play 90 minutes. Your current stamina, after 75 minutes, will have a significant lack of running ability, and with such stamina, I will only let you play as a substitute. It's not just a matter of your ability, it's also a matter of attitude. Work hard and change your attitude for the better. ”

For Arshavin, Li Bin formulated a training plan very harshly, which made Arshavin a little dissatisfied, but made Rui very emotional: Li Bin's attitude is obvious, he can tolerate those who are not of the same heart as him, but he can't tolerate these players, corrupt their talents, waste their talents.

But maybe it's the right thing to do – and sometimes, Rui thinks the same way. If Yaya Toure's affairs show his generosity, then this incident shows his strictness.

Such a coach may be able to do something. The correct tolerance and suppression of players is what a coach should do.

"Andre you should play well, you are luckier than I was, you have a good coach, you are more lucky than me, you should play well. It's your luck and you shouldn't miss it. ”

When teaching Arshavin, Rui Costa also worked harder. He believed that he could teach the young man well.

This is a very talented person, and besides, his waste of himself is not very powerful. At least, he didn't get into too many vices, and although he didn't train hard enough, he didn't have many problems. Rui Costa also believes that because of this, Li Bin will teach this player patiently.

"You should understand that I am old now, and in the future, the core of this team will only be you. You should also know how much the coach values you, and you can see the plan you have made for you, and the future of this team is yours. You have to play well. Otherwise, do you really want to be like Kluivert? You don't have the talent he has, you can't afford to waste it. ”

During a break in training, Rui also spoke to Arshavin.

Rui knew that he was also part of Li Bin's plan, and he asked himself to teach the players, which is not what Rui should do, but what Rui loves to do. Coaches value the growth of players, and as veteran players, why not teach newcomers?

"I know that he is serious about me, but I always feel that he doesn't pay much attention to me, he obviously pays more attention to the local players, and still doesn't pay enough attention to me, you look at the tactics, it's all around you, and you take care of my characteristics a lot."

Arshavin couldn't help but speak.

Rui looked up and saw Cannavaro Jr. in training ahead. It was hot, but Cannavaro Jr. didn't take off his jersey, and the yellow armband on his arm was eye-catching.

"He's not looking more highly of Italians, he's just choosing a different way to treat you. Moreover, the tactical power is fought for by oneself, not by the coach. Isn't it because Cannavaro Jr. was able to get the armband because he played hard and worked hard? ”

Li Bin gave the captaincy position to Cannavaro Jr., which surprised many people. After all, there is too much talent in this team.

Among these people, Tacchinadi is Juventus' vice-captain, and Rui Costa, who has also been Fiorentina's vice-captain for a long time. It stands to reason that they are all better players than Cannavaro Jr., with more prestige and more ability. Among the young players, Yaya Toure is the most promising player identified by Li Bin, and Agger's leadership talent is admired even by Cannavaro Jr., while Rossi is Italy's new golden boy, but Li Bin did not choose them, but gave the captain's armband symbolizing the leader of the team to Cannavaro Jr.

Is it because he's an academy for the team? Because his brother and he are both Parma players, the incense of two generations of players? None of the players know about this question. Li Bin's statement is that he thinks Cannavaro Jr. is suitable, so he gave it to him.

Rui has to admit that this is a good idea. Since then, Cannavaro Jr. has undoubtedly taken a lot of seriousness when he played. He is a man of mediocre talent, Rui is in him, and he can't see his brother's talent, but after getting the armband, he is inspired to have a strong sense of responsibility, and when he plays, he works harder.

Trust the ambitious, the tolerant, the unserious, the pushing, the untalented: to different players, in different ways, to make them all play well, this is what a good coach should do. His attitude is completely for the sake of the players, and such a coach also makes the players willing to play well.

Our coach is good - this is Rui's initial impression of Li Bin in the past few weeks - so let's see if he will get better in the future.

Looking at the sidelines, Manager Balaldi seemed to come over to Li Bin and say something, Rui didn't care about him anymore, but Zhilu said, such a coach is rare-

'Our players, they all play very seriously. Li Bin looked at the field, turned around, and opened his mouth to Balardi beside him, "Except for Kluivert, the whole team has a good training atmosphere now. ”

"If you want to scold, I can say it directly." Balaldi rolled his eyes, "I know I'm wrong." ”

"Just scold you, don't do it in the future." Li Bin sighed, "It's easy for your vision to go wrong. ”

"But only once." Balaldi complained, "And, speaking of which, I don't have a bad eye, at least, I've been eyeing a very good player recently - just 14 years old, playing defender, very talented, and definitely not low in the future." ”

"Which country? What is it called? How talented is it? ”

"Italian, Piacenza kids. As for how high the talent is...... Lee, believe me, this is the first time I have seen this kind of sight since Cannavaro, and at first glance, I decided that I would become a child! ”
