Mario Gotze started again and continued his good form in the Champions League.
Although there were no goals or assists in this game, he revitalized Lazio's offense and gave Lazio's offense speed. In this way, Lazio's offense became more threatening.
In this game, Lazio's tactics were almost the same as their 9-0 victory over Atletico Madrid in the Champions League, but the intensity was not as high as required, and the team was not required to maintain such a fast pace from beginning to end.
Chang Sheng used the 9:0 victory against Atletico Madrid to inspire the fighting spirit of his players and strengthen their confidence.
Tell them that there is a future for them if they continue to play like this, and the future is still very bright.
After slaughtering Atletico Madrid, all the problems Lazio encountered before seemed to be solved at once.
Although Siena still put on a defensive stance in this game, the final score was 3:0, and Lazio won at home!
After this game, the media had to lament that all the tactics they had tried so hard to come up with against Lazio were useless...

After the eleventh round of the league, Chang Sheng received a call from Stramaccioni.
"I am free now. I need you to fulfill your promise, Mr. Chang."
Stramaccioni said on the phone.
Chang Sheng was stunned for a moment before he understood what he meant!
He asked in surprise: "Are you not in Rome anymore?"
"I resign." Stramaccioni's tone was a little sad.
"This..." Chang Sheng felt very sudden.
He knew that Stramaccioni later left Roma for Inter Milan because Inter Milan worked tirelessly to poach him for two months, among other reasons.
Why did Stramaccioni resign so early?
"Spaletti was fired by the club." Stramaccioni told calmly on the phone.
"Yes, I know about this."
In fact, in the time and space that Chang Sheng was familiar with, Spalletti's dismissal was much later. He took the initiative to resign on September 1 next year after two rounds of the new season due to two consecutive losses.
Spalletti is now a full season earlier than he knew, and instead of resigning voluntarily, he was passively dismissed. Chang Sheng thought, maybe this is also the change he brought to Roma, right?
During this period, under the leadership of Spalletti, Roma's results have been ups and downs.
There was a three-game losing streak before, and after winning a game in the middle, they lost to Juventus 0:2 at home. The senior management of the Roma club really couldn't stand it, and there were also objections in the locker room.
So Spalletti left without any suspense.
The head coach who was able to bring Roma to the Champions League every season just left his job sadly.
After Spalletti dismissed get out of class, there were rumors that the new Roma coach would be between Roma U19 head coach Alberto De Rossi, U17 head coach Stramaccioni, and U15 head coach Montella.
.
In the end, Roma chose tinker Ranieri instead of any of the three.
Stramaccioni doesn't care about coaching the first team, it's always love.
What he values is the youth training camp.
Therefore, he hopes that Alberto De Rossi will coach the first team so that he can be promoted to the youth training director.
But unfortunately, it all came to nothing.
Stramaccioni is a bit disappointed with the Roma club.
At this time, he thought of what Chang Sheng once said to him.
The grudges between clubs are not important to them personally, what matters is what choices are beneficial to their careers.
In Rome he was dancing with shackles, unable to realize his great ambitions.
But Lazio is willing to give him this chance.
Should I leave everything in Rome and go to Lazio?
Stramaccioni thought about this question for a whole week.
Finally he made a decision.
Go to Lazio!
At the same time, in order to avoid being gossiped about.
He first took the initiative to resign from the Roma Club. Because he resigned on his own initiative, he did not ask for a penny in compensation from the Roma Club.
The Roma club was surprised by Stramaccioni's resignation. They didn't understand why he had to resign when he had done a good job.
They tried to persuade Stramaccioni to stay.
But Stramaccioni, who had been thinking about it for a week, had thought it over carefully and was very determined to leave.
In the end, Roma had no choice but to let him go.
Now that he had just completed the resignation procedures, he called Chang Sheng.
After listening to Stramaccioni's story about why he left Rome, Chang Sheng lamented in his heart that his rewriting of history has changed history beyond recognition. Stramaccioni was three years earlier than he was.
Leaving Rome.
I don’t know if he will become an excellent head coach in the future. But one thing I can’t change is that Stramaccioni is still the best youth training coach in Italy!
That's enough.
What I want is youth training!
So he quickly agreed: "You can come to Lazio Club right away, and we will sign a contract with you. Then you can start your work at any time!"
Three months later, the newly built Lazio youth training camp will finally welcome its owner!
※※※
Stramaccioni officially became director of Lazio's youth academy the next day.
Out of respect for Stramaccioni's own hospital, the Lazio club did not publicize this. It only announced the news in a very small space on the official website in a very inconspicuous position.
Just one sentence of news: "Stramaccioni officially signed with Lazio and became the director of youth training."
Chang Sheng took Stramaccioni to the youth training camp. On the way there, he explained his great idea to Stramaccioni.
"... There are not many players in the Lazio youth training camp now because we have disbanded once before. We are still slowly recovering. Those talented players back then have gone to other teams. Now we have to start from scratch. But we
Our eyes will not just be on Roma and Lazio. Patacca is rebuilding Lazio’s scouting team, and our tentacles will extend to every corner of Italy, even Europe and the world.”
"They will select those kids with potential to join Lazio, and the rest is up to you."
Stramaccioni nodded: "I will make Lazio's youth training the best in Europe!"
Chang Sheng smiled and stretched out his hand: "I believe you will. Happy cooperation, Andre."
"It's a pleasure to work with you, Mr. Chang."
The two people held hands together.

The addition of Stramaccioni strengthens the winning coaching staff.
Now, except for Blasi, the physical coach who is already at Lazio, and two other daily training coaches, Lazio's coaching staff is full of winning people.
Fitness coach Elias Dominic, assistant coach Rudy Gonzalez, assistant coach Di Matteo, guest coach Gao Hongbo, and youth training director Stella Maggioni.
The lineup is already very strong.
But Chang Sheng still lacks a video analyst...
※※※
On November 11, the Italian Cup quarter-finals begin.
As the defending champion of the league, Lazio enjoys the privilege of playing in the Coppa Italia from the quarter-finals onwards. In this way, they do not need to play additional Coppa Italia in the three months of 1980-90.
You can focus more on the league and the Champions League.
In the first game, Lazio faced Genoa at home.
In this game, Chang Sheng still chose to play with a mix of substitutes, reserve team and youth team players.
The Italian Cup is a great opportunity to train new players.
In the final ninety minutes, Lazio and Genoa tied 1:1 and went into overtime. Lazio scored two goals in overtime and finally eliminated Genoa with a score of 3:1 and entered the quarterfinals.
The quarter-finals will have to wait until January 20th in two months. Chang Sheng does not need to think about the Italian Cup now.
The twelfth round of the league is the Rome Derby.
Roma, with a new coach, faced Lazio at home.
Chang Sheng and Ranieri still have some connections.
When he was in Valencia, he left and Ranieri took over.
At that time, Ranieri was always compared with himself. In order to avoid such comparisons and to truly control the team, Ranieri carried out drastic reforms to the team after coming to Valencia.
To eliminate the influence of winning streak on the team.
As a result, the team's performance plummeted. In the end, he himself was dismissed by the impatient Soler because of the team's poor performance.
Unexpectedly, after going around in a circle, he went to Rome where he had stayed before.
Ranieri is nicknamed the Tinker.
This nickname is because he is good at making some adjustments and repairs to the team's existing lineup, and then making them more powerful.
Just like a tinker, you patch a hole in a rotten iron pot to cover the hole, and then you can continue to use it normally.
Another theory is that he is always good at being a firefighting coach. When the team is in crisis, he can lead the team out of crisis.
But when he has a full season, he is often unable to lead the team to satisfactory results.
This time, Roma were right to find him despite a coaching change midway through.
Because Ranieri is good at doing this kind of thing of putting out fires midway.
However, in the first game, Ranieri coached in a hurry and did not even understand the specific situation of the team. The team lost to Bologna in an away game.
Now the second game is against Lazio, a Rome derby.
His luck in putting out the fire was a bit unlucky this time.
In the Rome Derby, Roma is at an absolute disadvantage.
Ranieri seemed to know this. So before the game, he did not provoke Lazio or show any ambition.
He seemed very low-key.
Don't talk about this game.
Even when reporters forced him to talk, he refused to talk.
If pressed too hard, just stay silent.
A group of reporters really didn't have any good solutions when faced with such a person who lowered his attitude and refused to show off.
For them, this may be the most boring Rome derby.
There is no suspense about the result of the game, and now there is no sense of expectation even for the game process.
What else can we see?
Did you see Chang Sheng looking so arrogant at the post-match press conference? (To be continued. Please search Piao Tian Literature, the novel will be better and updated faster!)
