In professional leagues, the big fish eats the small fish, the small fish eats the shrimp, and the shrimp eats...
Anyway, that's it.
After Gao Shen felt Ancelotti's malicious eyes, his heart went crazy, and he had the urge to rush out of the door and escape back to Mars, because he felt that the fat man had evil intentions.
After all, Naples is not a wealthy team. Once a player performs well and is poached by a wealthy team, it will be difficult for Naples to retain the player, especially if the team's performance is not very satisfactory.
Therefore, to a certain extent, Naples must rush to Serie A this season in order to retain players to the maximum extent.
Whether it’s a sports team or a company, it’s the same.
During this period of rapid development, it is often better to retain the core backbone. Once it reaches its peak or even begins to decline, the core backbone will often choose to jump to a platform that can help their careers further.
No matter how much De Laurentiis and others exaggerate the North-South rivalry, for players, the Milan duo are now the top giants in Serie A, especially after Juventus fell into Serie B.
Based on Ancelotti’s statement, it is not difficult to understand that the reason why AC Milan has a large number of veterans is mainly because the club’s financial resources are not enough to support them to compete with the tycoons in other European leagues for high-quality stars. However, Italy’s local youth training
Made a mess.
Although teams such as Udinese are committed to cultivating young players, once these players perform well, AC Milan has no competitive advantage with teams in other leagues in terms of bidding, leading Milan to simply choose a more cost-effective method.
Come to form a team, so there will be a group of veterans.
But Ancelotti is right, there is indeed a serious talent shortage in Serie A.
Over the years, the last local youth academy in Italy that caused a national sensation was Cassano. What about next?
Not only the local youth training in Italy, but also EU and non-European foreign players, Italy has indeed done a lackluster job in cultivating young players over the years, including teams like Udinese.
Now Udinese is not just a team in Serie A. They have acquired teams in La Liga and the Premier League. They are also trying to explore a new business model.
In this general environment, Napoli's sudden rise, especially since this team is still dominated by young players in their twenties, is not the same as throwing a thin skin into a pack of hungry wolves.
Tender lamb?
Is there any way to survive?
…
"Don't try to trick me." Gao Shen frowned and waved his hand.
Ancelotti laughed heartily, "Are you kidding me? It's still early."
After thinking about it deeply, it was right, but after thinking about it again, it was wrong again.
After all, aren't you still eyeing the fat piece of Naples?
It's still early?
That's because Naples' players haven't experienced the test of a few more games, and these strong Serie A teams are waiting for Naples to train these players and then divide them up.
The point is, these are a bunch of damn poor people!
When Gao Shen thought of this, he wasn't so scared anymore, because these guys were so poor that they had given their crotches to the bank. How could they still have money to poach Naples?
What you really need to be careful of are the bandits in the Premier League and La Liga. They are idiots. Everyone has money but many talents. Poaching corners is called a zip line.
Well, when we go back, we must remind De Laurentiis and Marino to be careful no matter what.
But don't be like that. You work hard and practice hard, but in the end someone picks the fruit. That would be a tragedy.
Ancelotti watched Gao Shen's expression change again and again, and finally became calm. He became curious instead.
"Aren't you worried?"
Gao Shen looked at him and laughed, "Why am I worried about you? With just the money you have, who can you poach?"
Ancelotti was stunned, then burst into laughter.
Isn’t it?
Who in the world doesn’t know that Serie A is a bunch of poor people!
Not poor?
Can Buqiong form a senior music and football team with an average age of 40?
…
This is a gathering that truly belongs to the head coach. It is considered a private communication and has nothing to do with the game on the court.
So it's just like in the workplace, employees from different companies in the same office building smoke and blow each other's hair in the stairwell. The topics are basically complaining about their own company, scolding the weird boss or the second-hand boss.
What is really more valuable is the special speech that follows.
Gao Shen followed the big boss Ancelotti, and Fatty An also took care of him and specially introduced people to him, including Lippi, who had just led Italy to win the World Cup.
Seeing this great master, Gao Shen really wanted to give him three consecutive clicks and then reward him with an old iron brand yacht.
These days, those who dare to take over the coaching position of the national football team are not ordinary people.
Of course, Lippi is now in high spirits and at the peak of his career. He has just won the World Cup. He never thought that one day he would be reduced to coaching the national football team.
So, this person is unpredictable.
What really surprised Gao Shen was Saki's speech that followed.
The speeches of several other people were actually a bit dry, either tending to empty theories, being too conservative, or digging into details. Although they were not without gold content, they were generally disappointing.
But as soon as the title of Saki's speech came out, Gao Shen was almost frightened to death.
Discuss Real Madrid and Napoli under Gao Shen!
As soon as this question came out, everyone's eyes in the entire scene were focused on Gao Shen, which made him feel like a thorn in his back and almost killed him.
Old man Saki, can you stop being so scary?
It’s okay if you try to catch my attention, can you please stop making headlines?
But Sacchi is really not a headline-grabber. He is really discussing and studying Real Madrid last season and Naples this season, but it is not just these two teams, but also several other teams, such as Lisbon.
Jaccard's Barcelona, Ancelotti's AC Milan, Benitez's Liverpool, and some situations in Serie A this season.
The core of the entire article is actually to criticize the current conservative style of Italian football.
Sacchi believes that Italian football has changed from a tactical pioneer to a backward and conservative dregs concentration camp.
Among them, he mentioned that judging from several warm-up matches this season and the three rounds of the Italian Cup, many teams have begun to try the 4321 Christmas tree formation, but more and more teams continue to use the 442 formation.
.
The formation is dead, but the people are alive.
But the problem is that Italian football generally adopts a conservative attitude and lacks the determination to forge ahead. This is the most fatal thing.
"I can even say that we are falling behind, and we are falling behind the other three major leagues very quickly."
Sacchi believes that Italian football must dare to seek change and be able to keep up with the changing trends in European football.
In his speech, Sacchi mentioned the progress of coaching Real Madrid and Naples, describing them as rapid progress.
This made everyone turn their attention to Gao Shen again.
You know, in professional speeches at such professional gatherings of internal professionals, the examples given must be very convincing, and who is Saki?
If he had said a few words for Gao Shen in the media, it could be said that he was helping the younger generations. But now, he directly said it in a speech at the Coaches Summit, clearly calling on more colleagues to learn from Comrade Gao Shen.
!
Gao Shen almost buried his head under the table. He was proud and proud, grateful and wanted to cry...
so complicated!
Those present are all well-known and respected seniors in Italian football. Sacchi actually wants them to learn from a 25-year-old boy. Is this ridiculous?
Some people are broad-minded and can accept it, but there are definitely many people who cannot accept such advice, and even complain about it because of it, and even want to prove their strength against Gao Shen.
Too much debt does not weigh you down.
Gao Shen is not afraid of the people he offends now.
But in an event with so many people, he was actually a little embarrassed to be praised as a model.
After all, I am still too thin-skinned and shy.
…
"Frankly speaking, did you forget to pay? Is he treating you like this?" Ancelotti asked happily looking at Gao Shen with a wry smile on his face.
Gao Shen shook his head in embarrassment, "I guess I gave him too much. He was embarrassed and just turned on the embarrassing mode."
Ancelotti almost stopped laughing and nodded.
In fact, more people here understand Saki, and even most people understand it.
Sacchi felt the decline of Italian football from the bottom of his heart, and he felt that iron could never become steel.
But the whole environment is like this.
From the country's economy, to the club's operating income, to the training of youth players, everything is going downhill. What can they, as head coaches, change?
Gao Shen couldn't help but think of a conversation he liked very much in the movie "Interstellar" that he had seen before time travel.
"We farmers sit like this every year and wait. If it doesn't rain this year, we will say, next year."
"But it won't save us next year, and it won't be the same the year after."
"This used to be fertile soil, Donald, but now it can't support us."
…
Not to mention, after being embarrassed by Sacchi, many people took the initiative to talk to Gao Shen, really just discussing tactics. Gao Shen also continued to maintain his humble and low-key persona, and was more of a listener.
But from time to time, he expressed some opinions and thoughts, which aroused the resonance and thinking of many people.
Especially in terms of foresight, Gao Shen, for example, believes that the emphasis on ball control and running will reach an incredible level in the future, and may even trigger an epoch-making tactical revolution.
Even some head coaches who don't recognize Gao Shen have to admit that many of Gao Shen's ideas and arguments are really interesting and can arouse people's thinking and exploration.
Of course, this is purely a discussion.
It is really too far away to really put them into practice and build such a team.
In other words, it is impossible for the vast majority of head coaches to have such conditions.
When more people coach a team, they are tailoring the team to its specific needs and depending on who chooses what to do.
It is so difficult to truly build a team of your own, and it is even something that can only happen but cannot be achieved.
Therefore, Gao Shen particularly cherishes this opportunity.
