There is a belief called football

Chapter 143 Returning to the Club

December 12th is the day when the Club World Cup starts. Stan asked the whole team to gather at the base on December 8th. His original words were, "If I can't see you at the training base before 12 o'clock on December 4th, then you will never be there."

Stan's habit is to ask others to arrive at 8 o'clock, so he must arrive at 7 o'clock first.

Li Qiao knows Stan's temper, and other things are fine, but he can't tolerate others being late. Stan has a famous saying, "Goals scored after the game are good for birds."

So Li Qiao got up early and arrived at the base at 7:20.

As soon as they walked into the team base, Stan was already standing there, and some players who arrived earlier than Li Qiao started stretching to warm up.

Li Qiao took a look, there were Nei Kenan, Jeparov and others. The World Cup qualifiers just finished, Nei Kenan's Iranian team won all 3 games in the group stage, and as long as they draw in the next round, they will be guaranteed to enter the top 10.

And the Uzbekistan team where Jeparov is in is also in a very good situation. It may be that they are happier in the national team. Both of them have relaxed expressions on their faces.

In contrast, Sun Jihai looked a bit lonely on the side. Jihai was doing high leg raises alone. Li Qiao knew that Jihai must still be worried about the last game, because Sun Jihai was a very serious professional player and also very patriotic.

Li Qiao didn't stay too long, and immediately went to the locker room to change his jersey, and started warming up his sneakers.

*****
"Those who participated in the national team competition resumed jogging today, and those who didn't went to fight with Pekovic in groups," Stein said loudly to the players.

Stan saw that Nekonan was still chatting with Jeparov, and felt a little unhappy. As an experienced head coach, he knew that many players would inevitably bring the emotions of the national team to the training ground after the national team match day. This is what Stan hates the most.

As long as you enter the gate of the team's training base, your body and mind should belong to the club. This is Stan's philosophy and his requirement for players.

"Hey, don't bring the stuff of the national team here, I'm the boss here, you know, you are my players now, we are going to play the Club World Cup next, not the Club World Cup qualifier",
When Stan said these words, he mainly stared at Nekonan and Jeparov, and the two veterans were also very knowledgeable, so they immediately shut up and jogged seriously.

One after another, the players came to the training base. Stan looked at his watch, and it was only 7:40, and everyone arrived, which made Stan very satisfied.

*****
Although there are special coaches for the training of the players, such as the goalkeeper coach is responsible for the goalkeeper training, for example, the players who need to recover their physical fitness are trained under the leadership of the fitness coach, but Stan still meticulously stands beside the training ground to supervise.

In fact, Stan did not have to do this, because the division of labor in the coaching team of modern football is very detailed. Each head coach has many assistant coaches responsible for specific content. For example, the head coach of the national team, Camacho, has four assistant coaches. But Stan likes to do it himself with his players. In this regard, Stan is very traditional.

"Hey, Qi Bing, Jihai is in a higher mood." Stan saw Qi Bing who had lost the game. Sun Jihai seemed to be in a bad mood, especially Qi Bing, who was selected for the national team for the first time, and he didn't even play a minute in the whole game.

Ji Hai is very professional and smiled at Stan, but Qi Bing seems to be not very good, and his emotions are still not up. Stan also knows that it is not Li Qiao who is scolding on the Internet, but the entire Chinese national team. Of course, Qi Bing is also scolded by netizens.
Stan also understood what Qi Bing was thinking now, so he called Li Qiao and Qi Bing over.

"Being scolded, I feel very upset, right?" Stan asked.

Qi Bing, Li Qiao nodded.

"Do you know what it feels like to be scolded"?Stan asked.

"anger"?Qi Bing said.

"have no choice"?Li Qiao said.

"No, I'm happy," Stan said.

Qi Bing and Li Qiao looked at each other in disbelief, they thought to themselves, "Are you abusive, coach?"
Stan looked at Qi Bing, but Li Qiao didn't believe it, and then said: "When others doubt you, the best way is to show him and make those bastards shut up."

"When others think you can't score, then show them the goal," Stan said to Li Qiao.

"When others say that you can't defend the opponent's striker, then you can defend the opponent and show everyone," Stan said to Qi Bing.

"When everyone felt that I was not worthy of being the head coach of Guangzhou Tianbao, I thought, I must win the AFC Champions League and shut up those bastards."

Stan's words were very effective, Li Qiao and Qi Bing both recovered from their depression.

"This is the first time you have been questioned. Believe me, as long as you are still on the road to professional football, the doubts will not stop. Children learn to adapt."

"Understood, coach," Qi Bing said.

And Li Qiao just nodded, because he has already been expelled from the national team by Camacho, as long as Camacho does not dismiss get out of class, he will not have the opportunity to return to the national team to prove himself.

"Go ahead, kids," Stan said.

*****
Li Qiao did not do training with the ball today. He and Qi Bing did strength training together. The training method was that the two stood back and forth, holding a belt in each hand.

For the first time, Li Qiao was pulling back and Qi Bing was running in front, and the second time they switched back and forth. After doing a few sets, the players would be very tired and needed a few minutes of rest.

Qi Bing threw a bottle of water to Li Qiao, then blinked at Li Qiao: "Well, how about your Ukrainian girlfriend?"

"how about what"?
"That's it," Qi Bing said.

Li Qiao knew that Qi Bing had committed an old problem again, so he hit the back of Qi Bing's head.

"Hehe", Qi Bing smiled.

"I'm teasing you, I just want to tell you not to care too much about the national team. You are right. In fact, many people in the national team thank you for your words."

"It's a pity, the price is too high," Li Qiao said.

"What's the matter, as long as Camacho is out of class, you can definitely go back," Qi Bing said.

"Not necessarily, which coach would like a player with a big mouth," Li Qiao said.

"Also, if I were the head coach of the Chinese team, I would definitely declare Li Qiao persona non grata," Qi Bing joked.

"Hehe, anyway, I have played for 10 minutes, you are a substitute," Li Qiao also joked with Qi Bing.

Having said that, both of them laughed.

"But I think there is only one person in this world who is the most suitable head coach of the Chinese national team," Qi Bing said.

"Milu"?Li Qiao asked.

"Of course not," Qi Bing said, and then he looked at Stan.

"You mean Stan"?
Qi Bing nodded.

"Except for Stan, I really can't think of anyone who can bring the Chinese team to the World Cup in Brazil," Qi Bing said.

Indeed, Stan, like Milu, is a former Yugoslav, and his understanding and enthusiasm for football are not inferior to Milu. Moreover, after Milu, the Chinese have always had a good impression of Yugoslav football.

Another point is that Stan is a workaholic. His enthusiasm for coaching is obvious to all.

The last and most important point is that Stan knows too much about Chinese football. It can be said that he knows the bottom line. Even he himself said that he is half Chinese.

After being reminded by Qi Bing, Li Qiao also felt that there is no one more suitable than Stan in the world to be the head coach of the Chinese national team.

But it is one thing to be suitable, and another thing to be able to do it. It is still very unreliable for Stan to become the head coach of the national team in Li Qiao's view.

The first obstacle is Camacho. Since the Football Association has spent so much effort to invite Camacho, of course it is impossible to give up halfway because of a loss in a game. Besides, I heard that Camacho's breakup fee is not low.

The second obstacle is that it is impossible for Guangzhou Tianbao to release Stan, although Stan can also serve as the head coach of the club and the national team at the same time like Hiddink.

The third obstacle is Stan's character. Stan is an arrogant person. Whether he can stand the rules of the national team is also unpredictable.

But it’s okay, the more Li Qiao thinks about it, the more Li Qiao hopes that Stan will become the head coach of the national team and take him to Brazil. Li Qiao knows that if Stan becomes the head coach of the national team, then his fantasy of standing in Maracana may be more than just fantasy.

Just when Li Qiao was fantasizing, someone slapped him hard on the back of the head, "Joe, you don't have privileges on the training ground, if you don't take it seriously, I will hit you as well." Stan saw that Li Qiao was distracted, so he came over and gave him a slap.

"I'm sorry, Stan," Joe Lee said with a smile.

Stan saw that the expression on Li Qiao's face changed, and he regained his usual self-confidence. He wondered, "Why, I'm happy to be beaten"?
In fact, what he didn't know was that Li Qiao was fantasizing about fighting with Stan in Brazil, so he thought about it and his mood improved.

Stan looked at his watch. It was almost done. He finally announced that the team would watch the video together in the afternoon and analyze the potential opponents in the Club World Cup. He especially emphasized that no leave is allowed.

As soon as Stan left, the morning training ended. Li Qiao did not leave the training base, but went directly to the training room imported from Germany to practice passing.
