Being able to get Deschamps' invitation made Zhao Yaning feel flattered. Although Deschamps coached Monaco in a mess this year and ended up with a relegation team, as long as he thought of Deschamps' outstanding achievements in the French national team and Juventus in previous years, Zhao Yaning felt inexplicably excited.

This is a real big name. Former captain of the French national team and one of the best midfielders in the world.

Zhang Yuan doesn't like the French team, he is a Brazilian fan, and he always complains a lot about the French team, the winner of the '98 World Cup. He has always adhered to conspiracy theories, political theories, and believed that the cause of France's victory was a fluke.

But don't talk about Squeerage, Zhao Yaning sometimes thinks he is too stubborn. Although the attacking line of the French team in '98 is a mess, the defensive line can be said to be the highest in football history. Although Brazil has Ronaldo, but the two midfielders have fallen to the point of playing in the J-League, how can they win when they meet a strong midfield team like France? Football is not an individual game, and no matter how strong an individual's ability is, there are times when he is powerless.

Deschamps' defensive intensity, defensive area, ball prediction, and first point after winning the ball are all rare in the world. And his partner Petit, the ability to take the ball and make long passes to the front court is first-class, coupled with the tacit cooperation of the two people, as well as the support of Karembo, to form a strong midfield in France. It was not until 2000 that Callumbus left and replaced Vieira, who was at the peak of his defensive ability, to ensure France's Grand Slam title.

If nothing else, before Deschamps left the French national team, Makelele had no chance to play in the national team at all. Looking at the fact that Makelele can now sit in the middle of Real Madrid, you can also know what the level of Deschamps was back then.

Zhao Yaning has been in France for a year, and in addition to hearing and seeing, he also has a good impression of French football, so when he heard that Deschamps wanted to see him, he also felt extremely happy.

Because of this, he soon left Ajaccio with Zhang Yuan and came to Monaco.

Monaco's results this season can be described as extremely poor.

Didier Deschamps took over Monaco as a rookie last season and made a drastic overhaul as soon as he arrived. Before him, Monaco, like other Ligue 1 teams, had a great deal of say in foreign players, with two bigwig strikers, Simeone and Gallardo, almost the same in Monaco. But after Deschamps took over, he put them aside without saying a word, and as long as he did not obey the order, he would never give them any chance. He sent Simeone out to AC Milan, sent Gallardo down, and then began to rebuild the squad.

If he is purging dissidents, it is not necessarily true. Even Roten, who he brought in himself, and Jiuli, who had already obeyed him, was sent to the reserve team by him without saying a word because he was lazy on the training ground - it was on the eve of Monaco's game against Lyon, and the two most important players of the team were sent down, attracting the team's big boss, Crown Prince Albert II of Monaco, to intercede for them. But Deschamps didn't save face at all, and made it clear that he would rather lose the game than spare the two people. Thankfully, Monaco won that game, and Roten and Giuli quickly realised their mistake, apologised to Deschamps and found their place.

After a season, Monaco has been losing one after another and has been hovering in the relegation zone. The media has been hyping him as an old-fashioned and inflexible person, and even publicized the fifteen bans he nailed to the door of the locker room, believing that he was unkind and a failure.

But Zhao Yaning knew that this was not the case. When Squeiraci mentions him privately, it is definitely not for nothing that he has complained about him at the beginning of the season and admired him at the end of the season. Didier Deschamps did sacrifice a season's results, but Monaco also completed a new generation, and the decadence of the Tigana era was swept away into a disciplined and tactical team.

Squealaki obviously knew more details, but he refused to tell Zhao Yaning in detail. After all, what is in the dressing room, as a Monaco player, he can hear from his peers, but he can't say it, this is the consensus of the football world. But his attitude was enough to make Zhao Yaning have some interest in Deschamps.

And when I met Deschamps, I was in a bar in Monaco.

This made Zhao Yaning a little surprised, football players generally don't have much contact with alcohol, but as a coach, it is really bizarre to ask a player to meet in a bar.

"Feel free to drink whatever you want, as long as it's not too much. Off the pitch, you don't have to be too restricted. Deschamps said hello to Zhao Yaning and did not get up. But although he said this, Zhao Yaning still only needed a glass of beer, took a sip and put it down.

Deschamps saw his movements in the eye and didn't say anything, but nodded anyway.

"I don't want to talk any more nonsense. You were introduced to me by Jean Petit and he said you were a good player. I've seen the footage of your game and I think you're the kind of player I need, and if you follow me, you can make a difference and I can make a difference and I can further develop the Monaco squad. ”

Deschamps spoke concisely and to the point, which made Zhao Yaning feel that he was quite happy. But happiness is not everything, Zhao Yaning feels that it is still necessary to ask more clearly.

"Excuse me, what is the main role you want me to play?"

Zhao Yaning's question is not unexpected for Deschamps, "I hope you can be a strong tactical part of the team, and what you need to play is mainly two aspects. First, your speed and ability to break through are important means for the team to move forward quickly. Secondly, I hope that your ability to break through and your long-range shooting ability can be an effective tool for the team when it comes to attacking tough battles. Roten is good at long passing, Gyuli is more versatile, but they don't have your breakthrough ability, Monaco need a good breakthrough player, I hope you can help me make up for this shortcoming. ”

Didier Deschamps didn't have much to do with his intentions, "I don't want you to be the heart of the team, your playmaking and finishing skills are not top-notch, and you can play more of a supporting role. I want you to make a tactical puzzle, and I'm sure you can do your best. ”

Although this is a bit unpleasant, Zhao Yaning thinks that it is good that Deschamps can tell the truth.

"Mr. Deschamps, actually, I am more concerned about how I can grow. I don't think I'm too old now, so I should pay more attention to the practice and learning of skills. ”

Zhao Yaning's words made Deschamps nod, "I understand what you mean." I've just been a coach for a while, so I'm not familiar with technical training. If you move to Monaco, your technical training will be done by Coach Jean Petit. He's been watching you for a long time, and there's no doubt about his level, and I'm sure you'll benefit a lot. ”

"But his training was also done under your tutelage, right? I would like to ask, if I go to Monaco, what part of the training would you prefer for me to pay attention to? ”

Deschamps paused before speaking, "I'm a new coach, so Mr. Jean Petit only put me in charge of the tactical side, the training of the players is the foundation of the team, and he doesn't let me interfere too much. But he did tell me where he wanted you to go. ”

"Mr. Petit thinks it's stupid for a technical player to be obsessed with strength training, you have enough strength and there is no need to train harder, what you should pay more attention to is your physical training. Skilled players can avoid too much physical contact with smart movement and excellent awareness, but technical distortions caused by physical exertion are unavoidable, so it is more important to work on physical fitness. ”

Sounds reasonable.

"Secondly, he wants to work on your passing skills. Your long-range shots are good, and if you combine them with good passing skills, you'll be a lot more dangerous when you move closer to the middle. Also, you played a bit more restrained last season, and if you can develop a good passing ability, then your threat will be much higher. ”

"Again, it's your technical moves. You're very talented, you're in good physical condition, and your basic skills are pretty good. But you haven't been able to take these movements a step further and make them completely your own. You haven't found the best breakthrough technique for you, and Mr. Petit is willing to help you find the best way for you to play. ”

These words made Zhao Yaning extremely moved. It can be heard that Coach Petit has indeed worked him, and his fame ensures that he will definitely be able to succeed in training Zhao Yaning. For Zhao Yaning, such words are enough.

But Cordia, who was sitting on the sidelines, still had some doubts.

"Mr. Deschamps, I still have some questions. It's no secret that Monaco's Roten and Giuli are a very good pair of wingers, so if you buy Joey, how do you place all three of them? ”

"I haven't figured it out yet." Didier Deschamps was very honest, "Roten's long passes, Giuli's movement and his breakthrough will be my three weapons. But I haven't figured out how to get them to run in better. I can't just guess where the three of them are, I have to really work out before I can decide on the way to play. I'd prefer Gyuli to play in the middle so that their strengths are compatible, but I don't dare to assert that they can succeed until they work together, and perhaps more likely they won't be compatible and will have to play two of them, while the third is off the pitch as a rotation substitute. ”

These words made Zhao Yaning's enthusiasm drop a little. Who does the understudy? Gyuli is the absolute main force, so the substitute is naturally one of him and Roten. It seems that the competitiveness is not small.

"Okay, then I have one more question." Cordia was only responsible for asking about things, and the decision was Zhao Yaning's own business after all, and he didn't mention it anymore, "This year's Monaco results are not very good, I want to ask, what is Monaco's goal next year?" ”

'We've played badly this year and that's my problem. When Deschamps spoke, his tone was not hesitant at all, "But next year, Monaco's goal is only to win the championship." ”
