Chapter 165 The Tinker Arrives

The famous Italian coach parachuted into the King Power Stadium, which greatly exceeded the expectations of the media and fans.

As an excellent coach, Ranieri has a very rich coaching experience. He has coached [-] teams before, covering the four major leagues of Serie A, La Liga, Premier League and Ligue [-].

He has coached Naples, Valencia, Chelsea, Monaco, Atletico Madrid, Inter Milan, Juventus, Roma and other strong league teams.

But in his room of honor, there are only a few cup winners.

Among them, the one with the highest gold content was leading Valencia to win the European Super Cup in 04.

Lack of honors with high gold content, although Ranieri has an extremely rich coaching resume, he is still not a top coach.

Ranieri's coaching ability is top-notch, and he is often known for cleaning up the mess, using broken formations and weak teams to avoid relegation, and even entering the European war.

His nickname of "Tinker" comes from this.

But once you coach a strong team, there will often be confusion in the rankings, and you are not sure about the shortcomings of the main lineup, which leads to inexplicable games.

He also has the nickname "The Gardener", which means that he is always making wedding dresses for others.

Ranieri's painstaking "Bat Legion" between 97 and 99, after he left, he competed with Real Madrid and Barcelona.

Terry and Lampard, who were especially trusted when coaching the Blues, also became indispensable roles in the Mourinho era.

But he never tasted the sweetness of the fruit.

This time coaching Leicester City, the media joked that this was Ranieri's last remedy for the "rotten pot" of Leicester City.

Although not favored by the outside world, the players are still full of expectations for his arrival.

After all, he is a famous coach, and the players will admire him from the bottom of his heart if he has achieved impressive results.

On the first day of taking office, Ranieri did not appear on the training ground, but was accompanied by Craig to familiarize himself with the basic situation of the team.

In the afternoon, Ranieri appeared on the training ground, when the players were warming up.

"Craig, is this the team's training plan?" Ranieri looked at the round robin and asked with interest.

Unlike the fiery Pearson, Ranieri always brings a kind and friendly feeling, and gets along very well with his colleagues.

Craig said the purpose of the training match, Ranieri nodded with a smile, stood there watching for a while before leaving.

The appearance of the new coach has made the players very curious, what kind of coach will he be, and what different tactics can he have?

But until the end of training, the new head coach never formally met with the players.

Just as the players were heading home from practice, Craig called Morgan and Rossi to stay.

The two looked at each other, but they were very clear in their hearts.

It's the new coach who wants to meet them.

The manager's office, the moment Rossi and Morgan stepped through the door, Ranieri stood up with a smile on his lips and spread his arms in a welcome gesture.

"Nice to meet you guys!"

Instead of calling them by name, they used "boys". The first sentence Ranieri spoke, he won the favor of the two.

After sitting down, Ranieri clasped his fingers tightly, propped it on the table, and said, "I heard from Craig that the training match was proposed by the two of you?"

The two were startled at the same time, thinking that nothing would happen, right?
"I think it's very good." Ranieri praised: "It can create a good atmosphere, let the players get rid of the negative influence of the news, and also relieve the pressure of taking office as an old man. I thank you."

Morgan was a little flattered, and said, "This is what we should do, sir."

Ranieri said: "As the captain, you have done very well. You are very good. I want to continue to hand over the team to you."

"Thank you for your trust, I will definitely do a good job!"

While Morgan was excited, he did not forget that this was originally Rossi's proposal, and said: "Actually, this proposal was first proposed by Luo."

Ranieri looked at Rossi and said: "I know you, Luo. You performed very well last season and were the hero of the team's relegation. Do you know that on the night I took office, Lao Lei called me and respected you very much."

At this point, Rossi didn't expect that Lao Lei would actually take care of him like this.

When Lao Lei coached Tottenham, he had a confrontation with Ranieri who coached Chelsea.

It's just that they didn't expect that the two had a good relationship in private.

"Thanks for your love!" Rossi said modestly.

Ranieri said: "Actually, I need your help to come to you today."

Morgan, who had just been appointed as the captain for the new season, was full of energy and hurriedly asked: "Sir, if you have any difficulties, just tell me."

Ranieri said: "As a member of the team, I am a newcomer. I am not as good as you who know everything about the team. The preparations for the league have begun, and there is not much time left for me, so I want you to help me a lot in my future work to coordinate the emotions among the players."

Morgan nodded. This was originally his task, and said, "No problem, sir. Luo and I will try our best to help you."

"Tomorrow, I will formally meet with you all. To be honest, I am a little nervous. You need to help me by then."

After finishing speaking, Ranieri looked to Rossi, hoping to get his answer.

Rossi also nodded and said, "I will, sir."

The next day, Ranieri, in sportswear, was the first to appear on the court.

After all the players arrived, Ranieri, who was always smiling, said slowly: "Hello everyone, as you can see, the new coach of our team, in the next two years, I will be here and fight side by side with everyone."

"Of course, I have to use the victory to win two years with everyone."

After the applause, he continued: "Maybe everyone knows about me. To be fair, I briefly read everyone's information last night, and I have a certain understanding. Now I will start the roll call, which can be regarded as a brief exchange."

The team held their breath, feeling nervous about being called by the teacher in an open class.

"First of all, I think we should choose a captain that everyone admires."

After speaking, everyone's eyes were on Morgan.

"Wes Morgan!"

"exist!"

"He will continue to serve as the captain, I believe everyone will support him!"

The players nodded one after another, and Morgan had a sense of stability in the back line.

"Jamie Vardy!"

"Yes!" Vardy raised his hand.

Ranieri smiled and said: "I watched the game where you celebrated for your child. Congratulations on becoming a father. Did you spend more time with your family during the holidays? They are now a constant source of motivation for you on the court."

Vardy nodded emphatically.

"Then it was... Jeffrey Schlupp. If I remember correctly, scoring three goals in your first first-team game is not something everyone can do."

"Let me take a look, isn't this Schmeichel? I'm a friend of your father. He always mentioned you in front of me, and every time he proudly said that your achievements in the future will surpass him."

Every time Ranieri called a player's name, he had to say a sentence or two.

He is humorous and often attracts laughter from the players, and his understanding of the players is not just simple paper information.

The whole meeting was also very harmonious.

After the meeting, the team started training, and the players expected the new coach to have different training methods.

But the result is, business as usual.

This made the players a little disappointed, thinking that Ranieri would have a different training plan.

Are all excellent coaches so Buddha-natured?
