Nyon, Switzerland, is located on the shores of Lake Geneva, with beautiful scenery. The UEFA headquarters is located in this small lakeside town, and the 2011 European Elite Coaches Forum was also held here.

As the name suggests, not everyone can participate in the European Elite Coaches Forum. The most important thing is to be invited by UEFA to participate.

Some people were not invited, and some people declined the invitation.

Wen Sheng had always wanted to talk to Mourinho about tactical ideas against Barcelona, ​​but Mourinho rejected UEFA's invitation. Previously, some media said that Mourinho was doing it to counter UEFA's previous ban on him.

It was only because of the punishment that I decided not to come to the coaching forum.

After the Champions League semi-finals last season, Mourinho was suspended for 5 games and severely punished by UEFA for blaming the referee and even arbitrarily accusing Barcelona of receiving the referee's sympathy because of its donation to the United Nations Children's Fund; after two rounds of hearings this summer

After a debate, UEFA reduced the penalty of immediate suspension from 4 games to 3 games, so Mourinho will not be able to appear in Real Madrid's first two rounds of the Champions League group matches on September 13 and 28.

Judging from Mourinho's conduct as a person, this reason seems to be quite sufficient.

But even if Mourinho doesn't come, Wen Sheng won't be particularly disappointed. After all, among the head coaches who came to participate, there are still a few Wen Sheng who really want to communicate with them.

One of them is Milan coach Allegri. Allegri is the ancestor of X**T. Of course, this is a joke by the fans. In fact, he is a coach with very changeable tactics and is very capable of making meals based on what he wants.

Strong, generally the level of coaches like this is very high and they have many unique ideas.

He later led the not-so-powerful Juventus to the Champions League finals twice. Unfortunately, he met MSN's Barcelona and Qi Xuanzong's Real Madrid, and both failed. But don't forget his process of reaching the finals.

But I have fought many tough battles, and my on-the-spot planning and tactical training are top-notch.

Of course, he may not have evolved to the stage of future generations in Milan, and Milan's situation is also quite special. The composition of Milan's players actually leaves little room for him to change his tactics, and he has not yet truly exerted his power.

Wen Sheng remembers that this season he played in the same group as Barcelona in the Champions League. At least in the group stage, he led the team against Barcelona which was quite good.

The second head coach Wen Sheng wanted to communicate with was Magath. Ma Dashuai is an expert in physical training. He is now the head coach of Wolfsburg in the Bundesliga. He has achieved success in Bayern and Wolfsburg in the Bundesliga.

Schalke 04 also achieved good results as a team leader. Wen Sheng wanted to talk to him about the secrets of physical training.

On the afternoon of the 31st, the coaches gathered in the conference room provided by UEFA headquarters to start a two-day meeting, which actually only lasted a day and a half.

Wen Sheng knew most of the coaches who came to the coaching forum, but he had never interacted with them before. He could only say hello to those he was familiar with.

There were Ferguson and Wenger in the Premier League, as well as Chelsea's new coach Villas-Boas and West Bromwich Albion coach Huo Taigong. Wen Sheng sat with Ferguson, Wenger and Huo Taigong.

After Crystal Palace defeated Barcelona to win the European Super Cup and set off the European football hot spots, in less than 24 hours, Crystal Palace's popularity was successfully "robbed" by Manchester United and Arsenal, at least in England.

On the afternoon of the 28th, in the third round of the Premier League, Manchester United beat Arsenal 8:2 at home. This was between Manchester United and Arsenal. Wenger had never lost so miserably in Ferguson. This game was naturally better than Crystal Palace's win.

Cups are even more gimmicky.

Suddenly becoming the focus of media speculation, the stingy Wenger was naturally criticized by the media. Some people simply labeled Wenger as the "culprit". I guess Wenger has not been very happy these past two days.

.

Seeing Sir Alex and the professor sitting together in this meeting at this moment, Wen Sheng felt that it was a bit inconsistent.

Several people formed a small team, and they had a tacit understanding not to discuss the bloodbath, but to discuss the UEFA Champions League Super Cup match on the 27th. Obviously, Crystal Palace's performance made them jaw-dropping.

Especially in terms of ball control, before Alves was sent off, Crystal Palace's ball possession rate was about 35%. After he was sent off, Crystal Palace's ball possession rate began to increase, reaching about 35%.

Around forty.

"Actually, to deal with a team with a philosophy like Barcelona, ​​I think we have to start from several aspects. First of all, solid defense is essential. The offensive players they have are so powerful. Without a good defensive organization, it is easy for them to

Find opportunities! Secondly, I think the focus is still on anti-control. Their philosophy is to control the ball at their feet. They believe that having the ball at their feet can not only create a threat to the opponent but also bring benefits to their own defense! Then why can't I uphold the same principle?

As for the concept, we may have a tacit understanding and our technical ability cannot match theirs, but we must try our best to control the ball at our feet and never give up the ball easily! The last step is to crack their high-post pressing strategy. Our players must

You have the ability to control the ball at your feet. You can’t panic. Even if you can’t counterattack, it doesn’t matter, but you can never blindly pass the ball to the opponent’s half!”

Wenger nodded in agreement, "Anti-control is indeed important, but not every team can do it!"

"You're talking nonsense!" Ferguson laughed, "Crystal Palace's ability to defeat Barcelona was determined by many factors, not just Daniel's tactics that worked!"

"In other words, we would have to be beaten passively!" Mr. Huo laughed at himself.

Wen Sheng and the others all laughed. West Bromwich Albion could only be beaten passively, and counter-control was difficult to achieve.

"But I think the future trend is like this. Players' technical abilities will get better and better, especially their ability to control the ball, giving weak teams unlimited possibilities!" Wen Sheng said seriously.

In fact, many players from the underdogs in later generations have relatively strong technical abilities, especially in the Premier League. Because the Premier League is rich and spends a lot of money, the players from the underdogs are also very good, especially in terms of personal skills.

Strong teams have to work hard to get points from them.

Nowadays, many weak teams in the Premier League are full of bad guys. They only have one or two tricks to counterattack, and they are easily restricted.

The chaos last season was mainly due to the World Cup syndrome and the impact of the transfer market. This season Wen Sheng feels that it will be difficult to have the same chaos as last season.

Extending from the game, everyone was discussing team management. Wenger suddenly glanced at Wen Sheng and Ferguson, "I heard that you are talking about Pogba. There is no news now. Isn't it pornographic?"

Ferguson actually wanted to send Pogba out. Of course, loaning him out was the best option. Adding a buyback like Crystal Palace did was also a good idea, but Wen Sheng's talks with him fell apart.

As a result, Ferguson was left with a lot of feathers. Raiola later came to Ferguson and asked Ferguson to give Pogba more playing opportunities.

"Because Daniel is just as stingy as you!" Ferguson looked at him with an unkind look and "sarcastically" mocked Wen Sheng and Wenger, "Damn it, he's not going to give that damn fat guy a penny, can this deal be negotiated?!

"

Wenger and Hodgson laughed, Wen Sheng felt aggrieved.

"Boss, I have made a sacrifice for everyone! Who of you wants to see the agent shit on our heads?! Besides, we don't have enough financial resources, how much is appropriate to give him?! Pogba is just

Worth three to four million!"

"How about you buy Pogba for me?!" Wenger had an idea.
Chapter completed!
