Gao Shen never hesitates to praise the team's performance.
As long as the players perform well, he will basically give good evaluations.
So many people say that Gao Shen is a very loyal coach. The credit belongs to everyone, and he takes the blame himself.
From Naples to Manchester City and now Real Madrid, his sophisticated style of conduct is still very popular with players. Even if some players occasionally have objections to him, it is basically on other levels.
In terms of how he handles people, Gao Shen really can't find fault with him.
After defeating Manchester United 4-1, Gao Shen not only praised the players in the locker room after the game, but also spoke highly of the players again at the subsequent press conference.
Especially Di Maria, who was elected the best player of the match after the game.
The whole world knows that Di Maria is a player trained by Gao Shen, and he is also Gao Shen's favorite general. He was the hero of Real Madrid's victory in the Champions League and Copa del Rey last season.
In this game, the Argentine once again became the team's decisive player, especially in the second half.
Many reporters were wondering, what did Gao Shen do during the halftime break to make Di Maria suddenly become so violent in the second half?
Gao Shen smiled and said that he was just giving Di Maria appropriate encouragement.
"He has always had high demands on himself. He is a top star and has the ability to change the situation of the game. We all believe that he should and can definitely change this game."
"It turns out that he did it!"
Gao Shen said that Di Maria's performance in the second half once again proved one thing.
"He still has a lot of room for improvement. He can perform better and become a more important one!"
For Di Maria, Gao Shen has higher expectations.
"He is now 25 years old and is entering the golden peak of his career. I believe that both he and everyone will have higher expectations for him. We all feel that he can perform better."
Gao Shen believes that Di Maria contributed 10 goals and 17 assists on all fronts last season and achieved a double-double. His performance was very eye-catching, but Gao Shen believes that this is far from enough.
"I personally think that he should have more than 20 assists this season and he is fully capable of doubling his goals."
Double 20 goals and assists?
All the media reporters at the scene were shocked.
This is absolutely amazing performance.
You know, Di Maria has never been a scorer like Ronaldo. He is more comprehensive, so he always has a lot of assists, but fewer goals. Last season was the first time that he scored more than ten goals in a single season.
.
But now, Gao Shen has higher demands on him.
It's even a bit outrageous to ask him to score double 20 figures.
You know, those who can score double 20 in a single season are all the top superstars in the world.
For example, Henry played for Arsenal back then.
Gao Shen also saw the doubts of many media reporters, but he said that he was full of confidence in Di Maria.
"I think it's not a question of whether it can be done, but whether he wants to."
The implication is that Di Maria has such strength that if he wants to, he can do it.
The press conference was a bit chaotic.
Although Gao Shen has always had a very good image, he still makes one or two violent comments from time to time, which are still impressive to this day.
Having such high expectations for Di Maria is undoubtedly another outrageous comment by him.
However, there were also many media reporters at the scene trying to figure out Gao Shen's intentions, especially journalists from Spanish pro-Real Madrid media such as Marca and AS. They have all followed Real Madrid's games and training and are more familiar with Gao Shen.
Gao Shen said that when he encouraged Di Maria during the halftime break, the Argentinian's performance was completely different. Who believes this?
Even if he wasn't scolded to death, at least it put a lot of pressure on him.
No matter how bad it is, he will definitely say his classic mantra to intimidate players.
You are dead!
Everyone in the Real Madrid locker room knows not to take the coach's threats inappropriately. If you fail to do so, you will definitely be punished.
Real Madrid's daily training is already very difficult, and if they are punished again, it will really cost someone's life.
Therefore, generally speaking, advanced intimidation is quite a deterrent.
And now, Gao Shen suddenly expressed his expectations for Di Maria, which is certainly unusual.
Immediately, a reporter from Aspen Newspaper reacted the fastest and raised his hand to question, thinking that this was a bit too much.
"Forcing someone to do something difficult?"
Gao Shen looked at this familiar reporter and smiled slightly, "Then I'll make a bet with you."
After hearing this, other media reporters at the scene immediately understood and regretted that they did not react in time.
The benefits that were in vain were taken advantage of by reporters from Aspen Newspaper.
Bet with Gao Shen?
Is Gao Shen the kind of person who casually finds people to bet on?
He was just waiting there!
No matter whether he wins or loses, Asibao will definitely not suffer any loss in this bet.
Hey, how about saying that he is the mouthpiece of Real Madrid?
As soon as Gao Shen's eyelids moved, Asi Bao guessed what he wanted to do.
…
Double 20!
When the Real Madrid locker room heard the news from the press conference, everyone looked at the door in disbelief. Then they looked back at Di Maria and found that the Argentine's face had changed.
Boss, this joke is too big.
Is this something that can be achieved casually?
My mom, that’s a double 20!
"It's okay, it's okay, isn't it just double 20? It's not difficult!" Ronaldo came over, patted Di Maria on the shoulder sympathetically, and comforted.
The Argentinian gently pushed away Ronaldo's hand, raised his head and asked: "Have you ever achieved it?"
Ronaldo couldn't help laughing, he laughed, raised his right hand, pinched his index finger and thumb, "It's just a little bit different."
Everyone laughed.
Ronaldo scored a lot of goals, but not many assists. The most he had was 17 assists in a single season.
He looks more like a scorer.
On the contrary, Messi, the Argentinian superstar, has achieved it, and he has achieved it in the last two consecutive seasons.
It can be seen that Double 20 is indeed difficult.
Di Maria turned her head away angrily, not wanting to pay attention to these guys who were gloating about their misfortune.
"To be honest, this also represents the boss's ardent expectations for you. You must not let him down." Ronaldo comforted.
"Yes, you know the boss's methods. If you fail him, the consequences will be..." Ramos also agreed.
Everyone was also worried that the world would not be in chaos, so they started making noises one after another.
Di Maria had no intention of paying attention to these guys.
Do you really think that Double 20 is like cabbage in the vegetable market, and you can take it if you want?
"Anyway, I looked away and tried my best to achieve the best. If I couldn't achieve it, there was nothing I could do. The boss couldn't possibly kill me, right?" Di Maria also risked her life and lay down directly.
Everyone looked at each other, a little surprised at Di Maria's toughness.
"Aren't you afraid?" Marcelo asked from the side.
"What are you afraid of? I tried my best, what can I do if I can't do it?" Di Maria also said confidently.
When everyone heard it, it seemed that it was true.
"But boss..."
"I can't control it. It's not my fault anyway." Di Maria looked like a rogue.
Just when everyone was talking about it, Gao Shen opened the door of the dressing room and walked in.
"Boss!"
"Hello, boss!"
Everyone greeted him one after another, dispersed, and continued to pack their things.
As soon as Gao Shen entered the door, he walked directly to Di Maria without looking at anyone.
"Angel, did you hear what happened at the press conference?"
"I heard it, boss."
"Well, anyway, my words have been spoken and the bet has been made. You see..." Gao Shen pondered for a moment.
Everyone around them pricked up their ears and listened secretly.
"Boss, I think this is..."
"Well, tell me what you think."
"...I...what can I think? Boss, you have said so, so if I risk my life, I will never let you lose face, boss, right?"
Everyone in the locker room almost fell down.
Damn it, that's not what you just said.
nnd, you have no integrity, you spoke so righteously just now, why are you so timid now?
"Boss, don't worry, I promise I won't let you down!"
Gao Shen looked at Di Maria carefully, then nodded with satisfaction, pointed at Di Maria again, and turned around to leave, which seemed to make him feel better about himself.
As soon as the head coach stepped forward, Di Maria was surrounded by teammates on his back foot.
"Don't look at me like that, boss is doing it for my own good." Di Maria said weakly.
Everyone just looked disgusted.
Di Maria, you can be more shameless!
…
The profound and outrageous comments attracted the attention of the media, but overshadowed Real Madrid's 4-1 victory over Manchester United.
Everyone is wondering whether Gao Shen's expectations for Di Maria have been exceeded?
Double 20 in a single season, this is a bit outrageous!
As a result, many media expressed doubts and believed that Di Maria could not achieve such a performance.
However, many media outlets have spoken out in support of Gao Shen, believing that professional players should dare to challenge the heights. Regardless of whether they can achieve it or not, they should set a goal first and then work hard to achieve it.
Even if it doesn't work out in the end, what does it matter?
How can you accomplish great things if you dare not do anything, dare not think of anything, and are timid?
Alfredo, editor-in-chief of Aspen, said that judging from Di Maria's past performance, he is about to reach the peak of his career and is fully qualified to set double 20 in the season as his goal for the new season.
Especially after experiencing the second half against Manchester United, Di Maria showed the level of a world-class star.
"At the age of 25, he is becoming more and more mature, and he is very comprehensive. He is also at home in Real Madrid's tactical system and is fully capable of achieving the goals set by Gao Shen."
Alfredo said that if Di Maria can really achieve it, then Real Madrid will have two of the world's top stars, plus Benzema, then Real Madrid will have the strongest attack combination in the world.
"This combination will even help Real Madrid compete in La Liga and European competitions in the next few years!"
Alfredo also revealed that within Real Madrid, Gao Shen not only places high demands on Di Maria, but also on Benzema.
"He even specially arranged for Zidane to train Benzema on his shooting skills, which shows that he has high hopes for Benzema."
"I believe it won't be long before Real Madrid's trident will scare the entire European football world!"
