"Gazzetta dello Sport" said that if Chang Sheng wants to maintain his halo as a championship coach, it is best not to come to Italy, because this is the grave of those who show their appearance.
Their views were echoed by many Italian media.
Italian football does have such a characteristic, that is, in terms of tactics, they believe that only their own coaches are tactical masters. Premier League coaches are physical coaches, as long as they let the players develop muscles. Their tactics are to kick the football
Just drive forward and let everyone chase the football.
Spanish coaches can only practice offense and foot skills. Their demonstration is to give the football to the player with the best foot skills in the team, and then let him dribble the ball in one stop.
German coaches emphasize discipline the most. They wish they could use vernier calipers to determine the players' positions on the court, and then use loudspeakers to direct the game from the sidelines. They issue an order and the whole team will follow it. In addition to rigid discipline, they
Apart from that, there are no advantages. Their tactics are... well, they have no tactics, only orders and discipline.
French coaches? They are good youth training coaches. They are good at cultivating young players, and then they disappear. Their players are all divided up by teams from other countries before they reach adulthood.
As for Argentina and Brazil, Italy is even more dismissive.
When it comes to tactics alone, Italian football is the best in the world!
Each of our head coaches is from the academy, and they began to study many variations of the chain defense when they were young. In Italy, tactics come first, and the strong scope of tactical discussions here not only affects the head coach, but also
Even ordinary fans are happy to argue about these things. In Italy, as long as there are people who have something to do with football, whether it is the stadium stands, the media, bars, or friends gatherings, when it comes to football, people will always discuss things like the Lazio back four.
How to position in parallel, for example, when the opponent plays a lone forward, should a central defender retreat a little, for example, when Seedorf comes on, is Serginho's side coverage more effective than Jankulovski, because
Seedorf often cuts inside and so on.
Looking through various Italian sports newspapers, 442, 352, 433, 4321, 4231, 4312, 532, 541, 343... there are many different formations, and this is just a preliminary formation, and the changes in the formation are endless. Is the midfielder "diamond station"
"Position"? How should the two midfielders move? Zone defense or man-to-man marking? Is a sweeper needed? Therefore, the rhythm of the Italian team is also fast and slow. In terms of tactical richness, there is no other player in European football.
So Italians are entitled to be proud.
But this kind of pride does not mean that we cannot see the progress and changes of other countries.
Their attitude toward Chang Sheng reflects the Italians' conservatism, bigotry, and discrimination.
When Chang won in Valencia and used the improved Tiki-taka to sweep across Spain and Europe, the entire Europe was praising his contribution, and only the Italian media dismissed it.
Of course, in the whole of Europe, Italy has always been a strange flower, and everyone knows this very well.
In the war of words between Chang Sheng and La Gazzetta dello Sport, other Italian media outlets wrote articles to support their domestic counterparts. Although they also had deep differences and conflicts, they continued to maintain the title of No. 1 in Italian football tactics.
On the other hand, these media can still unite and report to the outside world in a unified manner.
"Torino Sport" analyzed in detail why the winning tactics failed to work in Italy.
They criticized the mad dog tactic that they are proud of from many aspects such as the nature of tactics, player configuration, opponent situation, schedule, etc. Finally, they said that this tactic is a mad dog in Spain, and it will definitely be a dead dog in Italy.
After saying that, they also said at the end that if Chang Sheng was not convinced, they could open a column in their newspaper for Chang Sheng to write an article to refute...
A posture of "argue if you don't accept it".
※※※
Chang Sheng was too lazy to write an article about tactics in the Italian media.
To him, talking about tactics verbally and on paper is just talk on paper.
It doesn't make any sense.
Whether a tactic is effective or not... is very simple, you can tell by looking at the actual game performance.
Do you think my tactics won’t work in Italy?
Okay, then I'll come and slap you in the face!
※※※
Originally, Chang Sheng was still hesitating whether to go to Italy or England. There were no wealthy clubs in Italy who invited him. There were wealthy clubs in England, but one was Liverpool who didn't want to go.
Now he doesn't hesitate anymore.
He made up his mind to go to Italy!
I will personally slap you bitches in the face!
Didn't you say it was impossible for me to succeed in Italy?
OK!
Then I will conquer Italy!

Roma and Lazio are the teams that have the most incentive to win.
Because both teams lost their head coaches this summer.
Lazio is better, they are mentally prepared at least because the media had been speculating a few months ago that Mancini might go to Meazza to take over from Zaccheroni.
Rome was truly caught off guard!
On May 30, Juventus suddenly announced that Capello would become the team's new head coach.
Roma Club did not expect that Capello would betray them and go to their mortal enemy Juventus.
This made Sensi Thunder furious.
Then Rome quickly began the search for a successor.
Originally they were not very anxious.
As a result, as soon as Capello left, Juventus began poaching Roma general Emerson, which made Roma furious.
What makes Roma even more unbearable is that Emerson is about to be leveraged by Juventus!
Moreover, Emerson demanded to receive the last two months' salary of the contract in advance before planning to transfer and leave, which was considered to be taking advantage of the situation.
No one in Roma could stand this kind of provocation from Juventus.
So the Roma club accelerated its search for a new coach.
At this time, who can beat Capello and suppress Juventus' edge?
Obviously there is only one person, and that is the young coach Chang Sheng who just led Valencia to the Champions League championship!
This season Valencia won the first Triple Crown in the history of Spanish football, and Chang Sheng was the one who created the Triple Crown himself.
His arrival will surely overwhelm Capello, quickly stabilize the morale of the army, re-establish confidence among Roma fans in Roma's future, and also attack Juventus - you poached our Capello, we are now
Another better manager than Capello!
And the city's rival Lazio is also interested in winning, which makes Roma feel a strong sense of crisis.
Although Lazio is not as good as Roma in many aspects, there is no guarantee that they will make some mistakes and engage in vicious competition.
We are all sworn enemies in the same city, old rivals, and we understand each other's temper and style very well.
Lazio will definitely cause trouble for them.
Otherwise, it would be impossible to explain where Lotito came from with the confidence that winning teams would like his team.
In terms of finances, Lazio is still on the verge of bankruptcy and owes more than 150 million euros in debt.
In terms of competitive results, Lazio ranked sixth in the league last season and could only participate in the UEFA Cup, while Roma was runner-up in the league and could participate in the Champions League.
Sensi does not believe that a Champions League winning coach would give up his qualifications to play in the Champions League and play in the UEFA Cup.
In terms of popularity, Roma has developed rapidly in recent years and can be considered a quasi-rich club. As long as it has a Champions League champion, it can join the ranks of wealthy clubs.
What about Lazio?
Winning a double crown ruined all the character for the next ninety-nine years.
Who still believes that Lazio is a strong team now?
So if you say that Lazio still pursues constant victory, it must be to cause chaos for Roma.
In order to prevent Lazio from succeeding, Sensi, who was forced by Juventus, gave the order to Baldini, the manager of the Roma Club, that any conditions can be negotiated and agreed to, and he must get the winner as soon as possible.
A head coach that everyone in Europe is paying attention to.
"Chan is the most popular coach in Europe. If we in Roma can win him, then Roma will become the most popular team in Europe! That's why we must sign him!" Sensi said.
※※※
Chang Sheng continued to refuse Lazio's second invitation. It was indeed impossible for him to join a team that could only play in the UEFA Cup. But Roma's invitation allowed him to stay.
The conditions offered by Rome are very attractive.
Three-year contract, annual salary increase. The first year is 3 million euros, the second year is 3.3 million euros, and the third year is 3.8 million euros. This is just the basic salary, bonuses are also high.
amount of bonus.
In addition to Chang Sheng's contract, they also agreed that Chang Sheng would bring his coaching staff with him, and also gave Chang Sheng's assistants the same high-paying contracts.
They are satisfied with all the power Chang Sheng wants.
For example, transfer rights, such as personnel rights within the team, they can all be given to Chang Sheng.
If they violate the contract, Chang Sheng can leave the team freely, and the club will never stop him, nor will he ask for a penny in compensation.
※※※
Neither Chang Sheng nor Kate Gracie expected the Roma Club to be so easy to talk to. Before they even opened their mouths, Roma had agreed to everything they wanted to say.
This even makes Kate Gracie a little frustrated.
"This is the most boring negotiation I have ever experienced!" Then he asked Chang Sheng, "Are you sure you want to go to Rome?"
Rome, Chang Sheng kept repeating this name in his mind.
As a time traveler, he naturally knows the development trajectory of Rome after that.
From then on until the 2009-2010 season, there were only two seasons where Roma fell out of the top three. In the 2004-2005 season, they only finished eighth in the league. In the 2008-2009 season, Roma ranked sixth in the league. At other times, Roma was always in the top three.
, including third place in the Roma League in the 2005-2006 season, and second place in the league at other times.
This performance is very good.
It shows that Roma is already a quasi-rich team.
Moreover, Roma can also participate in the Champions League next season, which is a very attractive condition.
Chang Sheng thought about it and found that, except for the stubborn forces led by Totti in the locker room, Roma should be a good choice.
But there are no perfect choices in this world.
Rome……
Just go to the eternal city.
He nodded to his agent Kate Gracie: "Roma, just go to Roma. Refuse invitations from other clubs."
