Section 24 From Cow to Cow
"It may seem like a bit of an exaggeration to say that, but let me say, Luca, after all this time, I'm still happy to get my first managerial job from you." Looking at Balardi's blue face, Li Bin spoke after a while.
"Li, you also know that if I had any other way, I wouldn't come to beg you." Baldini sighed and continued, "Our team, now the problem is big, in the sixteenth round, we lost again, the winter break is coming, but our results are also at the bottom. Now the players are fluctuating, and if I don't find a way to stabilize people's hearts, I'm afraid that this winter, they will all be gone. ”
"So?"
"Bardini resigned." Balardi was a little annoyed, "He's picking a pick." Now, we don't have a manager in our team. What's worse is that whoever doesn't want to accept a team that doesn't have any investment and is at the bottom of the table, of course, you have some credit for that, so I have to come to you. ”
"So you want me to take over? That's how you begged me? ”
"Li, what's going on in this situation, you know better than anyone else, I'm not a fool, although I was fooled, but I'm not stupid and I can't see who it is. Now that it's happened, you have to be responsible, right? I don't expect you to be able to bring out a lot of good results in the team, and my highest pursuit is just relegation. "I don't blame you, but you can't go too far." ”
"Which of the two of us started to play tricks first, you know it in your heart. Luca, I've never done anything bad to my friends, but you don't see me as a friend. Think for yourself what you've done to me, and I'm doing this, is it really excessive? If you were a little more fair to me, would I do it? ”
Balaldi's face flushed slightly, and then he spoke, "I'm also for the good of the team...... Let's not talk about that now, shall we? If you need me to admit my mistake to you, I can admit it, but no matter what, you have to find a way to save the team. You're a thoughtful person, and if you can get the team this far, you must have a way to bring the team back to life, right? ”
"I can't guarantee this, Baldini's stupidity is beyond my imagination."
"Don't lie to me, we've known each other for so long, and I know your style of doing things. And, Lee, I'm sure that even if you're not sure, you'll fight for it, Parma is one of the seven sisters, under normal circumstances, you can't take over such a team, no one would give their team to a 30-year-old Asian with no coaching experience, you've been preparing for so long, it's not for today? Lee, do you want me to beg you, you appreciate enough of my pain before you are willing to take over the team? ”
Looking at Balaldi's appearance, Li Bin sighed. This guy is really not good for himself, but this guy is really thinking about the team. Anyway, the team faced this situation, he did not resign and leave, but worked hard, he did not dare to let himself go smoothly because of the pressure from the outside, but he did have his difficulties.
We have to cooperate in the future, and there is no need to make too much trouble. He realized that his mistake should have been, but there was no need to push it any more. Although there is indeed something wrong with what he did, what he said is not wrong, and he did have some radical methods.
"Forget it, Luca, you know that I need this opportunity to gamble too, so you won't really ask me at all. What's so fun about pretending to plead? Forget it. But, Luca, I hope that after this incident, at least you understand one thing: without the support of the board, you can't play me. We will continue to cooperate for a long time, and I hope you can give me more support. ”
Hearing Li Bin's words, Balardi could only smile bitterly, "What else can I say?" From today on, the affairs of the team, everything, are in charge of you. ”——
From this moment on, Li Bin is already the head coach of Parma, and his plan is still successful.
Although his original plan is to start from Serie B after the plan is planned, even then, he basically has to have five or six years and three or four successful experiences before he can be universally recognized, otherwise, his age and nationality will always be a problem. And if you take a gamble by listening to Bharaldi, then you may be able to save five years, or even longer.
However, this bet is not so easy to play.
Generally speaking, if a team wants to be relegated, in the 20-team league, it must be at least 40 points, 40 points is called the safety line score, if there is no such score, it is basically not far from relegation, and even when some competition is fierce, 42 points may not be able to guarantee a safe landing.
And now Parma, after 16 rounds, two wins, six draws and eight losses, have accumulated 12 points - that is, they need to get 30 points in the remaining games to be able to secure relegation. Scoring 30 points in 22 rounds - it seems not difficult, but it is not easy. Serie A is heavily defensive, many games are quite difficult to play, in this environment, 60 points, it is a strong contender for the Champions League, more than 30 points in half a season, how to say that it must be a team in the European zone. It is not easy to bring a team to the European zone, not to mention that now, this team is still a bottom team, and it is hosted again, and the morale and atmosphere are all in a mess, and it is quite difficult.
Li Bin has thought about other aspects well, but the extent to which Bardini has ruined the team this half season is too deep.
Therefore, at this time, what Li Bin needed to do was to immediately find Borg and Esposito to discuss what to do.
The reason why I talked to Borg is because he is now playing in the first team. He has a lot of information about the first team. The morale of the players, their thoughts and especially the fitness of the players, he has detailed information in his hands. Even if you want to gamble, you have to figure out what cards you have.
Borg was quick to tell him that the team was in good shape and that apart from Marchioni's injury, there were no fitness problems or injury concerns. The overall physical strength and state of the players are not too many problems, they don't play well, more because the tactics are not good enough, and if they are slightly restructured on the basis of the current one, they can still play well.
In this half season, although others have made a lot of trouble, Borg has not been negligent in this aspect. This also preserves the vitality of the team, and in the second half of the season, there is still the possibility of a counterattack.
Another pleasant surprise for him was that the team's dressing room was pretty good.
Although the morale of the team is low, but there has not been a big mess in the dressing room, after all, except for one Frei, the other players in this team are either Italian, or have Italian ancestry, their culture, language, religion, and even age are not too far apart, they have been together for half a season, although they have not played well, but the club atmosphere is still quite good.
There are many reasons for the chaos in the dressing room of the team, but in general, the biggest problems, these are the problems. It is difficult for players from different cultures to integrate, after all, some places have a special culture, for example, Adebayo was at Arsenal, and when he was leaving, he went to the dressing room and stole all the shoes of his teammates, and his own statement was to vent his anger. Other issues are religion and skin color. Fights of different colors are common, and during his time at Milan, Weah tried to unite the likes of Desailly against the likes of Maldini at the Milan Knights' table, and it was already a tradition for Dutch blacks and whites to fight. And with the increase in African players, the conflict between Islam and Catholicism is also a big trouble. In addition to these problems, coupled with the contradiction between the old and the young and the arrogant and arrogant, the deep-rooted grievances of the youth players of different giants, these combined, any one of these can be trouble.
But fortunately, Parma's players are of the same age, grew up in a similar environment, and have little different cultural backgrounds, so there is not much soil for contradictions to breed.
These two advantages also made Li Bin breathe a sigh of relief.
Li Bin himself knows his ability: if the locker room is out of control, or the team is full of injuries, then there is nothing he can do. He doesn't know the true immortal art and mouth escape Dafa, nor does he know the true Chinese secret acupuncture and moxibustion and moxibustion and bone full blood Dafa, if it is really that the team has too many injured soldiers or turmoil, even if he takes over, he will not be able to return to the sky. However, the team doesn't have too many injuries, that's another story. What this team lacks is the right use of the players and the fighting spirit of the game, and they can still play some famous games.
This bet does not necessarily mean that it cannot be gambled.
"Everything else is fine, the rest is up to you." Borg was also quite excited when he heard the news that he had taken over the team, "We can try, we are in good physical condition, and the players in the team are also in good shape, so we are not particularly frustrated, if we are lucky, maybe, we can really get the points we need to stay in relegation." Starting your career in Parma can be of great benefit to you. We can make a career out of it here. ”
Li Bin nodded, he also knew that coaching one of the seven sisters of Serie A, even if it was out of class, it would not be difficult to find a new job in the promotion class.
This is a very good opportunity, although Li Bin has always adhered to the idea of doing things safely, but he also wants to try such a gamble with a great success rate.
"It's so remarkable, it seems to be the top three in the north, but in the final analysis, it's just a cow, and the three demon kings in the north are pressing, and it's difficult to achieve."
Unlike the excited attitude of the two of them, Esposito, but at this time, he couldn't help but complain. His temper is just as perverse, and Li Bin is not surprised by this. And this cow is also the nickname of Parma - Parma has developed local dairy products, and the Parma Larat group is also a dairy group, so Parma has always been called a cow.
"But a cow?" Li Bin smiled, "What about the cows?" Cows also have different cows. ”
Esposito raised his head and looked at Li Bin.
"If the top three in the north are the big three of Serie A, Diablo, Mephisto, and Barr of Serie A, then, from today on, as long as I am here, Parma will be ......" Li Bin took a deep breath, "Cow Pass!" ”
