Pep Guardiola didn't end up getting a double paycheck, he was joking, and it seemed that accepting Chang Sheng's invitation in this way would make him feel better.

As for why it would be uncomfortable not to do so, he couldn't say.

Perhaps more than ten years in Barcelona still left too much of a mark on him, and he couldn't accept the reality of being part of Barcelona's rivals.

He has been very low-key since his move to Valencia, and he does not look like the captain of the domestic giants at all.

But those low-key days are gone.

Because he's going to go down and be a coach himself.

When the internationals returned from their international matches, they quickly found out.

Because Pep Guardiola had a whistle around his neck and appeared in front of them with the members of the coaching staff.

Chang Sheng patted Pep Guardiola on the shoulder and said to the players with doubts on their faces: "From now on, Pep will be your tactical coach, and he will tell you what the deeper and better 'mad dog' tactics should look like." ”

Then Pep Guardiola threw himself into the work.

TKTK is not new to the Barcelona players, but it is still very new to the Valencia players, and this is on the basis of the fact that they have been training for more than a month.

In fact, the Mad Dog tactic of constant victory is indeed a superficial tactic, because whether it is Changsheng or Rudy. Gonzalez, or Valencia's own coaches, their impression of Barcelona's TKTK is only a superficial impression, and as for what this TKTK should look like, these coaches don't know much.

With such training, it is natural that it can only be similar.

To be godlike, you need a really knowledgeable insider.

Pep Guardiola is such an insider.

When he joined training, things changed immediately.

Pep Guardiola will tell his Valencia players with his practical experience. When he's on the ball here, how should the rest of the guys run to match him. And when he moves to another place to recognize the goods, how should he run to support.

When he's at the edge of the opposition penalty area and at the edge of his own penalty area, what is the difference between the receiving and running positions?

His explanations and demonstrations are more detailed than those of the coaches, with a strong Barcelona style.

Chang Sheng saw this scene off the field and couldn't help laughing.

It was at this time that the role of introducing Pep Guardiola for free was vividly reflected.

Without Pep Guardiola, his TKTK would always have been similar.

And Pep Guardiola has injected soul into this tactic.

Mad Dogs are starting to become more aggressive.

"Actually, it's quite decent." Rudy. Gonzalez said from the sidelines.

The other coaches gathered around him and Chang Sheng, and when Rudy said this, they all nodded in agreement.

"I can't tell he's a player who hasn't been to a coaching class......"

"It's really enviable, the current coach is getting younger and younger, and old guys like us are about to lose their time, right? Ha! ”

Everyone just looked at Pep Guardiola on the training ground and coaching the players. Judge him.

※※※

The whistle sounded constantly during training. It was Pep Guardiola who was constantly blowing the whistle to stop training, and then telling his team-mates about the gains and losses they had just made, and telling them what to do next.

He's meticulous and very serious if there's a player who doesn't do it well in training. He'll blow the whistle right away and ask the whole team to come back. Just because this one person may have been a second late, even though he still received the ball, Guardiola will still ask the whole team to come again.

At first, the players didn't understand and looked at the coach on the sidelines, a little reluctant.

When Chang Sheng saw this scene, he wiped the smile from his face, and then walked onto the court, as the head coach of the team at this time. Relying on a big win to build a basic reputation, he needs to back Pep Guardiola.

"There is really only one word for this tactic, and that is 'precision'. Pass the ball accurately, receive the ball accurately, and use the space accurately. Maybe you think it's a second late, as long as you can catch the ball. But I tell you. If you're running a second, maybe you'll need five seconds to adjust to the ball you're receiving, and then the whole team will have to move the ball into the opposition penalty area fifteen seconds later. In the heat of a football match, these countless dozen seconds add up, what is it? It's the watershed of victory and defeat! There's no room for sloppiness in the game, guys. I know you've never been asked to be so meticulous before, and it's very unaccustomed to you. Other teams don't ask for that, but if we ask for it, we have an advantage over them in the game. As long as everyone can do their best, those few seconds will translate into a team victory! So now, listen to Pep's and retrain! ”

With that, he handed over the training command to Guardiola and walked off the training ground.

Rudy. Gonzalez smiled at him, "You're getting easier now, just take charge of going up and saying a few words." ”

Chang Sheng was not embarrassed, and smiled: "Those who can live in it, and those who can work hard." I'm only in charge of co-ordination. This is the master-coach! ”

Rudy. Gonzalez rolled his eyes and then came on the pitch with his own whistle to help Guardiola.

The other coaches are also training to cooperate with Pep Guardiola as the "new coach".

For a while, Chang Sheng's surroundings were empty.

Chang Sheng looked left and right and found that everyone was busy, so he also began to get busy.

He opened it and scanned the players one by one for their reputation and stats......

On September 9, the second round of the league began.

Real Madrid actually let Malaga draw 1:1 at home, and the first two rounds of the league were winless, which became a hot topic in the media.

Many believe that Real Madrid have not yet recovered from the blow of a 5-0 defeat to Valencia in the first round of the league.

As the team that beat Real Madrid 5-0 in the first round of the league, Valencia's second round is in the spotlight.

They take on Valladolid away.

Valladolid narrowly avoided relegation last season and they are a far cry from Valencia's quality.

This game deserves to be won.

But the end result surprised many people.

Because Valencia was drawn, the score was the same as Real Madrid's, 1:1.

this game. Valencia didn't show their form of beating Real Madrid 5-0 at home.

The players who played in the national team came back looking a little tired.

Another unknown reason is that Valencia have been recalibrating their tactics, apart from the adjustments brought about by Baraja's injury. There is also the new thing that Pep Guardiola brings to the players as a coach, and they also need to have a process of acceptance and adaptation.

So the performance in this game was not satisfactory.

But the outside world doesn't know, they only see the FIFA virus, but the FIFA virus is not so powerful, right? The runner-up of the Champions League last season, and even the relegation team can't win?

For a while, there was some criticism in the media.

There are also some media outlets who are saying that the winning team is finally being revealed, and that a team like Valencia is not something that a manager who has been in charge of a country team for a season can handle.

However, most of the media that said this were not local in Valencia, but in other places, mainly the pro-Real Madrid media.

For example, the newspapers "Marca" and "As". The two media outlets bonded when Chang Sheng was in charge of Getafe.

Now the fight against ridicule is always victorious, but it is just a matter of habit.

Comparatively. The media in Valencia are much more objective. They think after a big win. After two weeks of international breaks, the team's training was not normal, and the draw against Valladolid was not a big deal.

Chang Sheng has already proven his quality against Real Madrid and all he has to do now is give him time. He spent one season in Getafe turning a relegation team into a second division champion and a Copa del Rey winner. It's only one game now, so what are you going to do in a hurry?

Valencia, as an autonomous region, is already very unhappy with the Madrid region. Naturally, they all have to refute what the Madrid media say.

So they have become the vanguard of maintaining constant victory.

Of course, these are external sounds.

So what did the situation look like inside the squad after the draw with Valladolid?

※※※

The day after the match against Valladolid, the team resumed training.

Before training began, Chang Sheng motioned for the players to assemble and he had something to say.

"I watched the Valencian media reports on this day. I gotta say. It's really the local media, and they're really friendly to you. There are a lot of excuses for us not to win the game, what a national team game, what kind of training is not systematic...... I don't know if any of you believe it. But what I'm going to say is...... I don't think this draw is forgivable at all! Yes, we have a lot of key players who have played two international games and we don't train properly. But...... But! Facing Valladolid, who were relegated by one point last season. I think even if you follow the original tactics and use only 50% of your energy, it will be enough to defeat them! But you almost lost the game! You should be glad if you lose...... The holidays are gone. ”

"So why didn't we win this game? I want you to think about it. Why? Our individual and overall strength are much stronger than theirs, so why didn't the final victory belong to us? Don't say anything like football is round. I remember telling you that I was a winning manager. If we can all beat Real Madrid by five goals, why can't we beat Valladolid by five goals? Could it be that Valladolid is better than Real Madrid? In the final analysis, there is only one reason, and that is that you underestimate the enemy! ”

"The last team I coached, it was a very weak team, and any opponent looked at us and dismissed it and thought they were going to win. The result? Getafe ended up winning the league and the Copa del Rey! On the road to success in Getafe, the feet are full of corpses of those who think they are proud and underestimate their opponents! Are you also going to be a stepping stone for those weak teams to achieve miracles? ”

Chang Sheng's words are particularly convincing, because he did work miracles with the weak Getafe. So no one dared to disdain his words.

"I want to build Valencia as a real team! What is the real powerhouse? A real strong team is one who dares to fight in the face of a powerful enemy! Just like we did with Real Madrid. The real strong team is still in the face of seemingly weak opponents, without mercy! I can beat the opponent a 5:0, I definitely don't want 3:0! Only such a team deserves to win the championship and glory! ”

"Now, let's start training! Then feel for yourselves what I am saying to you today. If you have different opinions and questions, you are welcome to come to me at any time, you can call me, I will be happy to help you solve your doubts! ”
