Because of the emergence of Zhang Sheng, Gao Hongbo resolutely chose to give up coaching after leading Guizhou Renhe to win the FA Cup. Instead, he chose to further his studies at Schalke 04 in Germany with the help of Zhang Sheng.
And this further study is different from before. Instead of just flicking through many clubs like a dragonfly, I chose to go deep into the team's daily training and competition, even though I was just a very ordinary nominal assistant coach. , but it is completely different from the previous superficial way.
In the early days of arriving in Germany, Gao Hongbo's life at Schalke 04 was not satisfactory.
Because of Rangnick's relationship, when Gao Hongbo first joined the team, he was always considered a primary school student from a third world country, and no one looked down on him.
Moreover, the coach Jens Keller is also a coach who has too much time to take care of himself. The team's performance under his leadership has been ups and downs. It is extremely difficult for Schalke 04 to achieve a Champions League goal. Of course, Jens Keller has no time to go. Take care of interns like Gao Hongbo.
However, Gao Hongbo has always been a person with a very tenacious character. He has never complained in the Schalke 04 club. He quietly does the work assigned by the club. No matter how complicated the work is, he can always complete it on time. In addition, He has also been learning German and participating in training for Germany's top coaching qualification certificate.
Gradually, he changed from a silent person to an indispensable pawn in the club's daily work.
As the head coach, Jens Keller no longer regarded him as a non-staff member of the team's coaching staff, and began to let him participate in the core affairs of the team.
At this time, Gao Hongbo had the opportunity to get in-depth contact with formal work in the German top league.
Only when he actually participated in the daily coaching tasks of a Bundesliga team did Gao Hongbo know what a high-level league is.
When the assistant coach of Schalke 04 left the team in the second half of the 2013-2014 season, and Gao Hongbo was arranged as a real assistant coach by Jens Keller, the domestic media suddenly discovered that in a top competition like the Bundesliga, You can actually see a Chinese figure on the game, even though he is only an assistant coach.
Domestic fans also know that this controversial coach has become China's first person in the five major European leagues, and is a coach who is far more important than players.
After half a year of experience as a real assistant coach, Gao Hongbo also understands why Chinese football is not good, because this backwardness is all-round.
In Gao Hongbo's mind, he has firmly decided on his idea - to coach in Europe, learn more advanced knowledge, and then return to China to coach when he really reaches a bottleneck.
However, things did not go as expected. In the 2014-2015 Bundesliga season, Jens Keller, who appreciated Gao Hongbo, was dismissed by Schalke 04 on October 7, 2014 due to poor team performance. He took over this position. It is Di Matteo, the head coach who once led Chelsea to win the Champions League.
As a member of Jens Keller's team, Gao Hongbo was of course excluded from Schalke 04's coaching team by Di Matteo, and Jens Keller didn't have many ideas about the future. He wanted to be idle. After having a good rest at home for a few years, and at the same time participating in his studies, Gao Hongbo suddenly had no one to rely on in Germany.
At exactly this time, Jiangsu Sainty had the idea of changing coaches due to their poor record, and Gao Hongbo, who happened to be out of work, became their first choice.
Now it's time for Gao Hongbo to make a decision, whether to continue looking for a job in the unpopular Germany, or simply return to his familiar homeland and become a readily available head coach.
The first thing he thought of was Zhang Sheng, and he gave Zhang Sheng a call.
In fact, Zhang Sheng has been paying attention to Gao Hongbo. As one of the few coaches in China who has ideas, is willing to work hard, and has a broad vision, he is at the most appropriate age. As long as he can maintain an attitude of learning, the future of the Chinese national team
He is a very strong candidate for head coach.
Now there is really no need for Gao Hongbo to follow Jens Keller, because Zhang Sheng also knows that Jens Keller did not come back until 2016. Now Gao Hongbo should have made his own choice.
Based on Zhang Sheng's current thinking, there is really no need for Gao Hongbo to return to China. Because of the emergence of the Longteng team, the record of the Chinese team led by Peilan should not be much worse. In other words, he will have no chance in the Chinese team in the near future. At the same time, Jiangsu
Sainty is not a good choice for him. Suning should officially enter Sainty this season. By the 2016 season, they will definitely invest heavily. According to their thinking, domestic coaches are definitely not the first choice. Gao Hongbo does not need to make another choice by then.
The relationship with the club was in a mess.
In addition, Gao Hongbo himself has nearly a full year of experience as an assistant coach in Germany. No matter how inconspicuous he is, with his qualifications and abilities, he should have no problem being an assistant coach in the Bundesliga 2. If it is not possible, he can coach in the Bundesliga 3.
Also a good choice.
Even if you take a step back and say that you are ostracized in Germany and it is difficult to find a job, with the influence of Rangnick and Red Bull, there is still no problem in helping to find an assistant coach job in the Austrian League.
If you really want to return to your country, you can spend a few more years in Europe to gain experience.
After hearing Zhang Sheng's analysis, Gao Hongbo also revealed his thoughts: "I also want to stay in Germany for a few more years. There is too much new knowledge for me to learn here. As for the club, I don't insist on being in the Bundesliga.
Even if you are in the second division of Germany, it is much better than returning to your home country."
Zhang Sheng also supported his statement: "Okay, you can look for opportunities in Germany first. If that doesn't work, you can seek help from Rangnick! You can also contact me at any time."
After dealing with Gao Hongbo, Zhang Sheng began the work of calling players last season.
The Longteng team did not win any championships last season, so Zhang Sheng's system upgrade task was not completed accordingly.
In the past few seasons, the team will have at least one championship in hand, so it will gain a lot of experience in system upgrades. Every time at the end of the season, the system upgrade tasks will always be completed, but this time there is no such thing.
So lucky.
By checking the system, Zhang Sheng could see that he still lacked nearly one-third of the experience before being upgraded from level 4 to level 5. If he wanted to upgrade, he would have to wait until the start of the next season.
Although he did not win any championships, Zhang Sheng still led the team to qualify for the AFC Champions League next season. According to the requirements put forward by the system before last season, Zhang Sheng had a chance to be summoned, but the player's
The quality only has a potential value of 120, and it is not as high as before.
Zhang Sheng soon called up the system and checked his own attributes:
Coach level: German A-level coach (equivalent to Chinese A-level coach, able to coach the Chinese Super League)
3. Special item: Intermediate Potential Pill x1--Permanently increases the potential value of players with a potential value of 100 and below (the lower the potential value, the more the increase).
Advanced fixed potential pill x1--Permanently and randomly increases the potential value of any potential player by 1-5 points (the maximum cannot exceed 150).
Skill: Youth Friends Level 2 - Permanently increases the growth rate of leading team players aged 21 and under by 2%
Hygienist Level 2 - Permanently increases the recovery speed of injured players in the team by 11%.
Ubiquity Level 1 - Permanently increases a player's position on the field.
Mission: King's Champion (Unfinished)
Make progress together (series of tasks)
Then Zhang Sheng summoned the system girl and made a request to summon players.
The system girl is obviously very dissatisfied with Zhang Sheng's results this season: "You still have the nerve to ask me to summon players? Look at the results you have led the team. There are stars like Pato and Ben Arfa in the team.
So I gave you a lot of good players, but you didn't win a championship. As a loser, you are too successful!"
Zhang Sheng also knew that he was in the wrong, so he could only say nonchalantly: "People make mistakes and horses make mistakes. Besides, as a newly promoted team, it's not bad to qualify for the AFC Champions League. You provided it in the system before the season."
In order to qualify for the AFC Champions League, I was given the task of recruiting players, so I still passed the test."
"Tch! You'll be satisfied if you pass. What's the difference between your ideal and the ideal of a bad student?" The system girl was obviously still a little unhappy, "Forget it, you're only at this level. Tell me, if you want to recruit players this time, you should get it."
Special items?”
Zhang Sheng has already made his decision: "Let's recruit players. The team's strength is still not enough now. Recruiting a player will be more useful."
Soon the system gave the option of summoning. Just like last time, Zhang Sheng did not have the right to choose the player's position, but was randomly given by the system.
"On the court, he is a 'little guy'. On the one hand, his full-back position is often overlooked by people. On the other hand, he is not the kind of player who makes people shine. He makes zero mistakes, or extremely
A low turnover rate is the basis for him to be the main force on the court. While being able to execute the coach's tactical intentions, he is also very capable of making up for leaks and is the team's best scapegoat. However, he is not without shortcomings.
When he needs to attack, he doesn't have many options. Of course, he also has his own advantages, that is, his passing ability is really good. Therefore, in the hands of some coaches, he never fails in every game.
He is an indispensable player whose performance in the game is above the average score of the team. Sometimes, in the hands of other coaches, he cannot even serve as a substitute. Once he comes on the field, he is still the scapegoat." Ability value/potential value: 40
/120.
"Excellent speed, outstanding foot skills, and very accurate passing. These are the advantages of this full-back who is only 1.70 meters tall. On the other hand, he works very hard on the court. No matter who the opponent is, he will always win.
He went up to him without hesitation. With him on the court, the left wing is basically his offensive corridor. But he is not without shortcomings. Because of his short stature, his header ability is slightly weak, and when facing strong opponents,
, it is certain that he will suffer a loss. His biggest weakness is his lack of physical fitness and his overly brave style, which always makes him perform poorly in the final stages of the game, so he needs to be more careful in defense. Of course, this is
It can be improved through experience." Ability value/potential value: 40/120.
Seeing the two full-backs provided by the system, Zhang Sheng was really hard to make a choice.
If Zhang Sheng expected, one of these two players is based on Azpilicueta and the other is based on Rafael Guerrero.
These two players each have their own characteristics. One is weak in offense and strong in defense, and the other is strong in offense and weak in defense. The roles they play under different coaches and different tactics are very different. How to choose is really a problem.
After some consideration, Zhang Sheng chose the latter.
The first player is indeed very good. He does play a big role when the team needs to defend. However, the development of modern football is not suitable for such players, especially at the full-back position, who can intervene.
Covering the edge is an ability that a full-back must possess, and the second player obviously meets this requirement better.
At the same time, considering the tactics that you will implement in the future, the full-back is a very important part. You need such a player to execute fast passes in a small area, and then suddenly change the speed and rhythm. Obviously, the latter player is more suitable.
own tactics.
Generally speaking, it's not that the players at the back are better than the players at the front, but that what you need is the player at the back.
This call for players came very quickly. On the second day after the call, the team's scout gave him a report. The origin of this player was a bit special.
The Longteng team's scouts had been paying attention to this player for a long time, but they never found him again. It was not until some time ago that they discovered him again. Later, after investigation, they found that the situation in his family was indeed special.
This 17-year-old boy named Peng Langjun grew up in a single-parent family. His mother passed away very early and his father is not with him at all times. Instead, he works in Shenzhen. According to the official statement, he is a left-behind child.
.
The reason why I haven't found him for a while is because he went to Shenzhen some time ago.
Peng Langjun's father, Peng Yongjun, is a native of Suizhou, Hubei Province. He was born in the military. After finishing high school, he went directly to the army. After returning home, he got married and had children. He used the transfer money and the driving skills he learned in the army to buy a car at home.
One car was used for transportation. At that time, the family was considered to have a very good income.
Unfortunately, something unexpected happened. When Peng Langjun was 10 years old, his mother fell ill. Peng Yongjun spent all the money saved by the family, sold the car, and borrowed money everywhere, which failed to save her life. Instead, she owed a huge debt.
debt.
In order to survive for his family, Peng Yongjun had to go to Shenzhen to work with his fellow villagers.
The main reason why Peng Langjun came into contact with football was because Peng Yongjun himself was a fan.
