Chapter 142: Heart-to-heart talk
The team is on holiday, there are not many people in the club, and it is a weekend, and there are not many administrators. The huge club base was deserted, and there wasn't even a bird in the library, and it was still Takato who opened the door with his own key.
After Gao Yuan sat down, he found a monograph on football tactics theory and studied it.
He took notes as he studied. Completely immersed in the book, completely forgetting the whole world.
I don't know how long later, he felt that there seemed to be someone nearby, and when he looked up, the sky outside the window was already dark, and someone turned on the library light. A man was standing on his side, looking at him with a smile.
This person is Li Xiaopeng, the coach of the Taishan team.
"Director Li, why are you here" Gao Yuan hurriedly stood up.
"I can find out, I still wonder when I will be able to realize that there is a silver standing here," Li Xiaopeng said happily.
"I'm sorry, I'm too engaged." Gao Yuan hurriedly explained.
Li Xiaopeng waved his hand, indicating that it was okay. He flipped through the book he was reading, only to find that it was Bobby Horton's "Footballmanagement andleadership".
Bobby Horton, a former coach of the Chinese men's football team and the head coach of the National Olympic team, is also a senior lecturer at FIFA and an expert in theorists. When he led the Chinese team, he was praised by the national football team at that time as "the enlightenment teacher who opened the window of the world", and through his tactical explanation, the Chinese really knew that football was played like this. It's just that his era is very far away, and the 442 midfield parallel standing formation style he advocated is now obviously outdated in the world.
"This book is a bit old," Li Xiaopeng sighed.
Gao Yuan explained with a smile: "The ruler is short, the inch is long, take its strengths, and discard its shortcomings." ”
Li Xiaopeng nodded, his thoughts seemed to drift back to his time as a player, and he said slowly with memories:
"When I was playing football, I was part of the national training team and was briefly mentored by Mr. Houghton. His football theories were very advanced for the time. At that time, everyone played football completely by body and experience, back and forth was a three-board axe, a swarm of swarms to kick, where to hit the ball and where to grab it, overall? Completely non-existent! One-on-one is a master, but the tactical level is very low, and the formation only exists in the opening seconds. After Mr. Horton arrived, the big guy understood what it meant to run without the ball and what it meant to outflank in a roundabout way. It can be said that the qualification for the 2002 World Cup was also the foundation of tactical theory laid by him that year, and Milou's success was on the shoulders of Horton. ”
"But he failed." Gao Yuan said.
"It's still the same sentence, there is a head coach in the world who doesn't get out of class. The key is to see what he brings to the team. Horton is a theorist, and the practice of leading the team is indeed poor, and the results are not good, no wonder the fans are shouting everywhere to get out of class and posting big-character posters. However, these are all fleeting clouds, and time will sweep away the sand and wash away the lead, revealing a person's merits and demerits in a real way. ”
Gao Yuan was a little surprised, he didn't expect Li Xiaopeng to speak authentic Ludong Mandarin and say such a profound truth. It felt like a shirtless man munching pancakes and green onions reviewing coffee at a Western restaurant.
Gao Yuan thought for a while and responded: "I think Horton's dismissal is mainly due to his theory being divorced from practice. Theory is only the foundation, the foundation that supports the superstructure, whether the house is built well or not, whether it is firm or not, still depends on the test of practice. ”
"Hehe, you don't have to change the way to shoot my horse." Li Xiaopeng said with a smile, "Now everyone outside is scolding me, saying that Li Xiaopeng knows something, and what culture Mu has, he will engage in relationships, the so-called tactics are to defend and counterattack, open a big sleep, and give me nicknames Li Dajue, Li Taishou, and Li Guan." Hehe, isn't this just a loss of theoretical knowledge after eating wood? ”
"Those keyboard warriors know it!" Hearing this, Gao Yuan was angry. "There are so many big and tall people in our team, if you don't play golf, can you play Barcelona's passing? What dishes to cook and what to cook! Defensive counterattacks, rapid advances, flying on both wings, and blossoming in the middle are the tactics that best match the reality and status quo of our team.
Besides, our defensive counterattack is not blindly passively beaten, it is a strategy and tactics with bullets, look at the technical statistics of the Super League, high-intensity sprints, net game time, and the number of times they attack the opponent's 30-meter area, all of which are among the best in the Super League! But they all chose to go blind.
As the saying goes, you can never wake up someone who pretends to be asleep. For this group of trolls who are black for the sake of black, no matter how well we play, they will turn a blind eye! Even if we win 5:1, they won't say how wonderful these five goals are, they will only bite the bullet and say that they shouldn't have conceded that goal! ”
Li Xiaopeng smiled and waved his hand: "There are a few radical people, and most of the fans are reasonable." Fans are our food and clothing parents, they are unhappy, and they want to scold a few words. Although some of the words are a little ugly, there is some truth to them. My tactical style of play is indeed not flashy, conservative, and sometimes the arrangement of troops is too cautious, these are the defects in my style, although I understand, but it is difficult to overcome when it comes to the critical time.
In addition, I have been a coach since the first to retire from the player, and the cultural level is not high, and the theoretical knowledge reserve is insufficient, which are my shortcomings, and they are also the common problems of our generation of domestic coaches. The outside world says that I am a young marshal, but now I am 45 or 6, it is not so easy to learn some new things, if Chinese football wants to really change, it is not only necessary to look at the players but also the coaches, and I hope that it is not on us, but also on these young people. ”
Gao Yuan didn't expect Li Xiaopeng to be so heartfelt to himself, not only frank about his shortcomings and shortcomings, but also clearly expressed his high hopes for his message. He hurriedly said modestly: "Director Li, I'm not professional. ”
"Hehe, to be honest, in the eyes of our professional people, no one is professional! After so many years of Chinese football, aren't the players, coaches, including many officials of the Football Association, professional? What's the use, so many professional people have been tinkering for so many years, but Chinese football is Wang Xiaoer's New Year - every year is not as good as a year! A great cause needs a great heart, and Chinese football is already a pool of stagnant water, and it needs you unprofessional fresh blood to carry out a thorough transformation. ”
Li Xiaopeng's words gave Gao Yuan a sense of mission with a heavy responsibility on his shoulders, and he said with a straight face: "Director Li, I will work hard." ”
Li Xiaopeng nodded with satisfaction and said with a smile: "Why are you so serious?" It's far away. I saw the lights in the library on, so I came over to take a look, and I just happened to see Kai reading here, so I chatted with Kai for a few words, and don't take it too seriously, haha. ”
He paused for a moment, and then said: "By the way, there is something I originally wanted to wait for the end of the week holiday to be announced, but this is not just the right time, so I will talk to you first." I'm going to make you an assistant coach for the team. ”
The team's coaching staff is a huge team, although they are all nominally called XX coaches, but in fact, most of them are team affairs, data analysts and other specialized staff, and only a few people in the inner circle of the coaching team can really be called assistant coaches. For example, Fabio, Hao Wei, Pep, and others, including Han Peng, cannot be counted as assistant coaches in the real sense. Now Li Xiaopeng has promoted Gao Yuan to be an assistant coach, which is actually to let Gao Yuan enter the core management of the coaching staff.
Faced with this sudden appointment, Gao Yuan was a little surprised, but he was not deliberately modest, but replied firmly: "Thank you Director Li for your trust, I will try my best to do a good job." ”
Li Xiaopeng patted Gao Yuan's shoulder and told in the tone of an elder: "The future of Chinese football still depends on you, come on!" ”
With that, he left the library.
