Section 114 Preparation before the game

After playing Guingamp, Monaco's next opponent is Montpellier.

This is the only game in this series that can be called easy.

Montpellier are not a strong team in Ligue 1, and they have been relegated in the league this season. Facing them, Monaco played with ease.

Roteng, who had just recovered from a serious injury, did not play much in this game, and only played less than 60 minutes before going down to rest, while Zhao Yaning played a major role in the game. He also played extremely well, with an assist from Gyuli's pass to open the scoring and give Monaco a 2-1 victory.

And after playing this game, just two days later, Monaco welcomed a strong opponent in the French League Cup, Auxerre.

Ousterre is a very special team in Ligue 1: although the strongest teams in Ligue 1 have always been Marseille and Paris, when it comes to the most respected team, it is definitely AJ auxerre.

Because their coach is Guy Roux, a living milestone in French football, known as the Eiffel Tower of French football.

The legendary manager is now 64 years old, having managed Auxerre for 40 years in his 64-year career. Except for the two years he spent in the military, he spent the rest of his time coaching Auxerre. It took him 19 years to get AJERRE promoted to Ligue 1, and then he used his life's work to bring AJJ AJJ from a low-level semi-professional team to the current Ligue 1 powerhouse, winning the Ligue 1 title, the French Cup, and even reaching the semi-finals in the Europa League.

He is probably the only legend in the world to have managed more than 2,000 games at the same club, and although he has 19 years in charge of the lower leagues, in 2002 he broke the Ligue 1 record for every game he plays.

What's even more surprising is that in the 40 years that Ousterre has coached Auxerre, the chairman of Ausell has not changed. A club where the president and coach have been working together for 40 years is a miracle in the world.

But that time record won't be long before it is set – Ligue 1 rules explicitly prohibit coaches over the age of 60 from coaching.

The introduction of this regulation is because it is difficult to get a French coaching certificate, and many people find an old coach to name and actually command before they get the coaching certificate. There are many such things, and the Football Association has to make regulations that coaches over 60 years old are not allowed to command.

But even if this rule was introduced, no one dared to manage Guy Lu. The fame and prestige of Auxerre's head coach are so great that even the French Football Association can only open up to him.

But even so, Guy Lux's retirement has been discussed many times in the media. Although Guy Roux himself did not admit it, almost everyone thought that the current group of young people in Auxerre could be said to be the last work of Guy Roux.

In their forward line, they have Cisse, one of the most outstanding strikers in France. In midfield, there is Lionel Matisse, a strong contender for the best rookie in Ligue 1 this season, and Philippe Mex, who is considered the defender of the future hope of French football.

Their results have also been impressive: while the team has maintained their contention for European places, AJL has also been on the winning list in both the French Cup and the French League Cup. They, like Monaco, are teams that dare to stick to multiple fronts. However, compared to the newborn calves in Monaco who are not afraid of tigers, Auxerre is even more cunning and has a good chance of winning.

If these two teams meet in a narrow way, it will depend on whose fate is harder.

"Monaco is a good team." In an interview, Guy Roux answered questions from the media with a smile, "Very good team. Such a team should focus more on winning the league title, so what's the point of getting too much entanglement in a game like the League Cup? This kind of trophy is for us little clubs. ”

And this remark, Deschamps can only thank Guy Roux for the importance he attaches to Monaco, and at the same time have to express his confidence, "We have absolute confidence in the league, and at the same time there is nothing bad about icing on the cake." We respect AJERRE but we will still try our best to qualify in this game and Monaco are not in the habit of giving up games. ”

Although Didier Deschamps said his team would not give up anything, the media is still extremely unoptimistic about the current situation in Monaco. In the first half of the season, Lyon and Paris still have European tasks, and the schedule is much heavier than Monaco, that's it, everyone has not opened up the gap, and now, in the second half of the season, Lyon and Paris have been eliminated, they can play the league with all their might, if Monaco has to fight on the third line at this time, it will become a burden for Monaco.

"If Monaco keeps going like this, there's a good chance they won't be able to get anything by the end of the season."

Le Monde made this assessment of Deschamps' persistence.

"If I really don't get anything done, I'll quit my job and work as a sports commentator at Le Monde, or at least I can take that guy's job." In the dressing room, Deschamps gave his own answer to this assessment. He wouldn't say that in front of the media, but when he talks to his players in the dressing room, he doesn't have any psychological pressure.

Amid the laughter, Didier Deschamps began to arrange the task, "We have to make some rotations in the League Cup. Pulshaw started, Roten came on the bench, Plasil played in the middle, Cisse started in place of Zikos, Abidal played at left-back in the back line, and Giwe and Squeraci started. Everything else remains the same. ”

"Am I going to play left winger again?" Zhao Yaning raised his own question.

"Yes, JΓ©rΓ΄me's injury is just right, don't let him play too much." When arranging the task, Deschamps said the player's surname, but after the assignment, he changed back to the name, "You continue to play as a left winger, you can try to actively seek to cut inside, Dado will open up space for you, you try to get closer to the goal. ”

Zhao Yaning nodded, he liked this task very much.

"But be careful of the opposing defender, Mex. That guy was strong - even stronger than Race Bus. ”

Mex, who has made a name for himself as a rising star defender this season, does have his strengths. His physicality, his ability to pick positions, his ability to tackle and his ability to attack after winning the ball are very satisfying. If such a player develops well, he will have almost no problem getting into the French national team, after all, he is a defender who can be considered a candidate for the best new type of France and he has his strengths.

"I'll take notice." Zhao Yaning nodded.

"But it doesn't have to be too stressful." Seeing that Zhao Yaning was too serious, Deschamps laughed, "The biggest problem with Mexes as a defender is instability - it doesn't matter if it's unstable for offensive players, but for defenders, instability is an extremely huge problem. Maybe he's going to play really badly, but it's possible that you'll play with ease. ”

"Let's prepare for the worst." Zhao Yaning agreed, and then asked his own question, "Coach, I have a question for you." Since his state is unstable, if you comment on him in the media, it should be able to make him mentally disordered, right? Wouldn't that be a better game? ”

These words made the teammates quiet for a while, and Deschamps' face also changed for a moment before he smiled again, "Joey, you still haven't fully adapted to Ligue 1." I ask you, you are also one of the rising stars of Ligue 1, have you ever seen a manager or a commentator in the media accuse you? ”

"I don't read newspapers much...... Zhao Yaning thought for a moment, "but it doesn't seem to be." ”

"That's because it's Ligue 1." Didier Deschamps replied, "France has the same perception as the Dutch in this regard, and too much attention and evaluation of young players in the media is a hindrance to the development of young players. You can't sneer at a young man and ruin his life for the sake of winning a game. It is very unethical to do so. ”

Zhao Yaning's face flushed, and at the same time lowered his head, "I didn't mean to, I just ......"

"Look at Italy, Spain, England all do that, think we should do the same?" Deschamps shook his head, "We are different from them, they are an imported league, the players are bought, and after spending a lot of money, they naturally ask for a penny. Our players are all self-developed and naturally we want them to be famous. ”

To put it bluntly, those are bought with money, and they can't be bought. But this is all about selling money, and you can't just scold and damage the goods.

"The Dutch see indiscipline, excessive media interference and Italy's defensive football philosophy as the three sworn enemies of young players. Once these three are implemented, the players will not want to get ahead. Think for yourself, if you play in Monaco and the media insults you every day, can you still play well? Do you feel stressed? Wouldn't it be comfortable? ”

Zhao Yaning shook his head.

"Then don't do that to others." Deschamps nodded with satisfaction, "We are all football players, we are not enemies, competition is okay, but it is too much to recruit people from the sidelines." Football is not war, football is not hatred, it is a sport, a sport to love. His charm lies on the pitch, not in the media. ”
