Chapter 859 Your Majesty the Emperor, you really think too much!
Beckenbauer and others all know football.
Bayern's overall lineup is still relatively thin now. The main lineup is very good, but the bench is not thick enough.
There is no big killer like Robben in the frontcourt, and there is no Jerome Boateng in the defense, which has a great impact on Bayern.
Gomez is very good, but compared to Mandzukic, he is still slightly inferior.
There is also a deep-lying position in the midfield. In Gao Shen's previous life, Javi Martinez's transfer to Bayern was crucial.
From getting Robben and Franck Ribery together, Bayern reached the Champions League final, but lost to Inter Milan, to the Sanya champions, and then to the Triple Crown. Bayern has been consolidating its overall level step by step.
This led to the Samachic era when Guardiola was coaching later.
As for Guardiola not winning the Champions League, that is another story, but at least in those years, Bayern's overall strength was considered to be the first in European football.
This is a kind of accumulation.
As for the various reasons found by the outside media, such as accusing Heynckes of being unwilling to rotate, such as losing the game at critical moments, these are actually the results.
This is not to say that the head coach will not make mistakes, but that all achievements must be based on strength.
…
Bayern now has several positions that urgently need to change.
That is the central axis.
Defensive midfielder, central defender and goalkeeper.
Compared with ordinary teams, the strength of the midfielder position is not a big problem, but if they want to compete in the Champions League, Gustavo, Tymoshchuk and others are not strong enough.
Then there are central defender Van Buyten and goalkeeper Bute.
Therefore, Gao Shen said this when talking to Beckenbauer, Rummenigge and UEFA officials.
"It's not easy for Heynckes to lead this Bayern team into the final!"
Beckenbauer, Rummenigge and others all fell into thinking, and then nodded.
Who says it’s not?
It's not that Bayern doesn't have the strength, but it lacks the depth of the bench, which is a great test of the head coach's coaching skills.
Beckenbauer also jokingly asked Gao Shen, "The whole world says that you are very accurate in reading people and have a sharp eye. How about you help recommend a strong deep-lying midfielder?"
Everyone also found it funny.
These are bitter rivals in the finals. Do you want someone to recommend players before the game?
Is it reliable?
But everyone knows that this is just a joke.
Even if Gao Shen names a name, Bayern must carefully select it and cannot just buy it casually.
Of course, Gao Shen declined politely, saying that it was all nonsense from outside.
But Rummenigge was also interested and immediately offered to give a detailed introduction, "It's just a joke anyway."
Everyone nodded.
There are so many people and teams out there who are eager to get a recommendation from someone high-end. How could they miss the opportunity?
"Then I can say whatever I want?"
Beckenbauer and others nodded.
"Morgan Schneiderlin!" After Gao Shen finished speaking, he smiled and spread his hands.
Everyone was stunned at first. Some people didn't even remember who this player was, but they soon started laughing again.
This is a good response!
"If you are really interested, you have to hurry up, Manchester United has already taken action." Gao Shen also specially urged.
Even Beckenbauer and Rummenigge burst out laughing.
Who doesn’t take Gao Shen’s words as a joke?
In other words, it is profound self-deprecation.
At this time, the press conference was almost ready. Gao Shen apologized and went out with the UEFA officials.
I heard a burst of screams and cheers from media reporters coming from the press conference hall outside.
Gao Shen’s popularity is so high!
It would be great if he had the opportunity to coach Bayern in the future!
Under his gold-rimmed glasses, Beckenbauer frowned, seeming to be thinking about some difficult problem.
"I suddenly thought about the person Gao Shen was talking about just now."
"Morgan Schneiderlin?"
"right."
"This is just a joke. No one in the circle knows that he is the midfielder of Leeds United, and Gao Shen's wife is the owner of Leeds United. He is just bragging and perfunctory."
Ultimately, Gao Shen just doesn't want to recommend players to Bayern.
But Beckenbauer waved his hands repeatedly, shook his head and said: "That's not right."
"What's wrong?"
"I said, your analysis is wrong. I have seen Schneiderlin's game report before. His characteristics are defense and passing."
"Yes, the number of times we recover the ball per game is unparalleled in the English Championship, and it is also leading in the Premier League."
"What if it's him and Bastian Schweinsteiger?"
"Isn't that Gustavo?"
Beckenbauer didn't say anything more, and he never thought about suggesting that Bayern should fight for Schneiderlin. He simply felt that Gao Shen's mention seemed to have another meaning.
Or maybe, I think too much?
…
If Gao Shen, sitting in the press conference hall, knew that a sentence he casually said could actually make the superior football emperor ponder it painstakingly for a long time, then he would definitely feel very proud.
When did we become such a profound person?
In fact, when he said Schneiderlin's name, he was really perfunctory.
Who doesn't know?
It was like at this moment, sitting in the press conference hall, he was dealing with many media reporters.
Their questioning skills are very good, but for advanced people, their ears have long been rotten.
He faces various similar questions every week or even every day. He has long mastered a skill, which is how to get through, and how to use a method that can make the questioner feel acceptable, but in fact
And he muddled through without saying anything.
For example, a reporter asked, what do you think of Bayern under Jupp Heynckes?
Gao Shen answered directly, "This is the strongest Bayern Munich in the past ten years!"
Everyone is satisfied and happy.
is not that right?
The strongest in ten years, any questions?
Some people also ask, what is Manchester City's biggest fear of Bayern in this Champions League final?
Gao Shen answered without thinking, "Ribery."
But in fact, after he said Ribery's name, he silently added two more words at the end, which is strange.
But there is no way, the media and fans like to hear this name.
Sometimes, it's really annoying.
If you don't tell them, they will keep asking until they get the answer they want.
That's even more annoying, so it's better to just tell them the answer directly to keep your ears clear.
Some people may wonder, why doesn't Gao Shen tell the truth?
Because no one listens to the truth, there is no gimmick, and it cannot be hyped.
Just like now, if you ask Gao Shen what he fears most about Bayern, it is actually running without the ball and intercepting in the midfield.
But after telling this answer, a lot of reasons and explanations have to be given. It is dry and dry. The media is not happy to hear it, and the fans are not happy to see it. Who will report it?
It's better to just give them an interesting answer and let them imagine and guess on their own.
Many people may not believe it, but Gao Shen really feels that the Bayern Munich team in front of him without Robben is stronger than the Bayern team he played against Chelsea in 2012 in his previous life.
Compared with the 2013 Triple Crown winning team Bayern, it was only inferior in goalkeeper and midfield interception.
But if you say this, who would believe it?
Things in the world are so weird sometimes.
People are always easily confused by what they see in front of them.
It's like Jose Fonte.
Why the iron-clad Wundt, the flowing partner?
Because the partner performed very eye-catchingly next to Font, attracting everyone's attention, and the light covered up the existence of Jose Font, so that no one would notice the existence of the Portuguese veteran and his role in the game.
What exactly was done behind the game and how much was done.
But whether you are a head coach, running a club, or running a department or a company, you must learn to grasp the essence and get to the core of the problem.
…
After the press conference, Gao Shen did not meet Beckenbauer and others again, nor did he meet Heynckes. His press conference would still be held for a while.
Gao Shen returned directly from the Allianz Arena to the team's hotel.
At this time, analyst Carlos Vargas had already produced some training data from the Allianz Arena.
The coaching staff will meet to discuss tomorrow's tactics.
Football matches are always a dynamic world that changes rapidly.
It's like it's the same Manchester City team, the same group of players.
In front of Barcelona, Barcelona is a control team, and Manchester City can only play an interception team. Unless there is something wrong with the senior's head, trying to control the ball with Barcelona is asking for death.
But in front of Bayern, Manchester City is a controlling team, and Bayern Munich can only act as an intercepting team.
The same Bayern is an interception-oriented team in front of Manchester City, but in front of Bundesliga teams such as Dortmund, it is a control-oriented team.
The people are still the same people, but the roles are constantly changing and changing.
Both teams have reached the Champions League final. In fact, many tactics are no secret.
Even the tactics that both sides will adopt are nothing new.
The key is in the details.
From formation adjustments, to changes in individual position players, to player position moves, changes in responsibilities, etc., these are all key factors that can seriously affect the trend of the game.
But they are often ignored.
From various deductions before the game, Manchester City can basically determine Bayern's starting lineup.
Goalkeeper: Butt.
Defence: Contento, Badstuber, Tymoschuk and Lahm.
Midfield: Bastian Schweinsteiger and Gustavo at the back, with Ribery, Toni Kroos and Thomas Muller in front.
Center: Gomez.
If nothing unexpected happens, this should be Bayern's starting lineup.
Heynckes still adopts the 4231 tactical play.
Thomas Muller's position on the right wing can provide Bayern with off-the-ball running and support capabilities that Robben could not provide in his previous life, maximizing Lahm's back-up attack power and his frontcourt after losing the ball.
Counterattack.
These are crucial in strong dialogue.
Of course, Thomas Muller is definitely not as good as Robben when it comes to abusing food.
This is also the reason why Bayern will lose in the Bundesliga and German Cup this season.
But the Champions League is precisely where this Bayern team's advantage lies.
