Chapter 87 The First Day of the National Team

Juventus' fourth penalty was Jugović, the Yugoslav player was solid and easily sent the ball into the goal.

最终尤文图斯在点球大战中4:2，最终比分5:3战胜了阿贾克斯夺得了1995－1996年欧洲冠军杯的冠军。

"It's really unstoppable now." Although Fan Shang's expression didn't change, he was sighing in his heart.Before Juventus won the championship, Vincent still had the intention to block Zidane, but now he is completely desperate. There should be few people who can block the temptation of the European Champions Cup.

Seeing Juventus celebrate after winning the championship, Fan Shang silently cheered himself up, "What an air, I will win the championship one day!"

After watching the game, several people discussed the performance of the national football team in this game, and then dispersed.

After a busy day, Fan Shang could finally rest. He took a shower and threw himself on the bed. Fan Shang didn't open his eyes until the alarm rang the next day.

Today should be the first time for Fan Shang to "work" in the national team, so Fan Shang bounced off the bed after the alarm rang, quickly finished washing, ran to the restaurant early to finish breakfast, and then went to the training ground to wait Bring the team to training.

After waiting for a while, a person finally came. Fan Shang turned his head to look after hearing footsteps. "Huh? Why is it this guy?" He had doubts in his heart, but Fan Shang was still ready to greet the visitor.

"Hi Roger"

"Just follow me. Your duty here is to help me formulate a targeted defense for the game, and give me some advice on the spot during the game." Jacquet laughed.

In fact, Fan Shang didn't know that Le Maire was promoted by Jacquet from Lens, and he was also Jacquet's confidant in the national team. With the style of the French Football Association, Le Maire will wait for Jacquet to be the head coach of the national team. When he retreats, he will take the position as he should.But now there is Fan Shang, although he is young and has a short coaching time, his grades are outstanding, and Jacquet showed great love for Fan Shang yesterday, so Le Maire has already regarded Fan Shang as if he was sitting in the French country The number one stumbling block to the team's head coach position, it's no wonder that this gives him a good look!

Of course, Fan Shang would not talk to Fatty Le in a boring way, and the two of them just waited silently for the arrival of others.Not long after, Jacques and several assistant coaches also came to the training ground.

"Aimee, don't think this way. Although it is impossible for us to let them defend and counterattack, what if we let them control the ball and counterattack?" Fan Shang comforted Jacques

After doing this, Fan Shang disappeared, and he followed Jacquet's ass for the whole training, hardly saying a word.On the other hand, Fatty Le, is from time to time on the training ground with two voices to prove his presence.

"Damn it, fat man!!!" Fan Shang cursed in his heart, "I'm so surprised, this should be the first time between me and him, where did such a deep hatred come from?"

After a while, Jacques suddenly smiled, "Very good, very good, Fan Shang! That's why I want you to help me. Your tactics are pragmatic and focus on stability. I very much hope that you will bring this stability Come to the national team."

Fan Shang looked at Yakai who was laughing, and had nothing to say for a while.

After a training session, Fan Shang felt that the training volume of the national team was not as large as that of Bordeaux. How could such a training volume guarantee a defensive-oriented tactic? It was impossible, but Fan Shang was embarrassed to say it publicly on the first day.

"What do you mean, please explain clearly, Fan Shang." Jacques didn't understand what it meant

At the end of the day, at night, Fan Shang knocked on the door of Yakai's room.

"Fan Shang, Roger, good morning, you came very early." Jacquet saw that Fan Shang and Le Maire were already at the training ground, and said

Fan Shang walked up to Yakai and whispered to Yakai: "Aimei, I told you before I came that I will not lead the training team. What do you think I should do today?" Originally, he wanted to move equipment as he did when he was an assistant coach in Bordeaux, but now his identity is different. The UEFA Cup champion coach moved training equipment without doing anything during the first training of the national team. Let others listen to it without laughing.

"Your idea is the same as mine, but the hearts of our team are still not aligned. Although I have used some methods and some results, but now you ask them to defend and counterattack, I guess they will not do it." Jacquet Speaking of these things, some disappointment was revealed.

The man answered very simply, and then went to the other side without even looking at Fan Shang.

In fact, Lizarazu, the captain of Bordeaux, was also selected for the national team's training list. Since he still has some minor injuries, he will be able to report to the national team in a few days.

"Obey, sir!" Fan Shang made a military salute to an American soldier, making the surrounding people dumbfounded.

"Aimee, hello." The two replied

Then the players also came to the stadium, among them there were two from Bordeaux, Zidane and Dugarry.Although both of them are going to transfer, Fan Shang, as the head coach of the two, of course will not neglect them.Fan Shang greeted the two warmly, but didn't mention the transfer at all.

"Hello"

"Let's just say it." Jacques looked at Fan Shang with a smile
"Before I talk, let me ask you a question first, Aimee. What do you think about the national team's tactics? Do you focus on defense or offense?" Vincent asked Jacques
"What do you think?"

At the beginning, the players were a little disgusted with Fan Shang's behavior of playing corners openly, but Fan Shang said this to everyone, and these international players were relieved.

"Aimee, I want to tell you something. Are you free?"

Fan Shang's words are pure politeness. Fan Shang really doesn't like many of these international players, and they are all in big clubs. It is impossible to come to Bordeaux, so this can only be polite.

Fan Shang is not that familiar with the other players of the national team. He only coached in Ligue [-] for half a season, and those who can be selected for the national team should be regarded as the pillars of each team. Fan Shang and them are nodding friends Neither count.But this did not prevent Fan Shang from being courteous. Fan Shang shook hands with these players and greeted them one by one, and finally said, "Are you interested in playing in Bordeaux?"

"Sit down, Fan Shang, if you have anything to say, just say it." Jacques asked Fan Shang to sit down
"Aimee, although it's my first day to participate in training, and I don't know how to lead training, but I have some thoughts about today's training, do you want to hear it?"

"I think it should be based on solid defense. If we attack, we don't have strong forwards like Germany's Klinsmann and England's Shearer. Even the top two shooters in Ligue [-] this year are not from our France. Without a strong striker, if you only rely on midfielders such as Zinedine and Yuri to attack, the threat to the opponent's goal will be greatly reduced, so I think it is best to defend firmly and try to counterattack. Our defense is world-class Yes, Marcel, Laurent, Lilian, Vicente, etc., I believe that the line of defense formed by them cannot be said to be airtight, but will be indestructible." Fan Shang said his thoughts, and then stared at Jacques, I want to see what he means from his expression.

"It is impossible for us to let the players shrink to defend in the backcourt. Then can we increase our team's possession rate and reduce the opponent's offense from this direction. I want the midfielders to keep falling They don’t know how to serve the ball, right?” Vincent meant to imitate the future Guardiola and win with possession.

In fact, there is no way to do this. If you want to score without a strong striker, you have to rely on set kicks and the like.If you want to score goals in a sports game, you can only keep pouring the ball to tear the opponent's defense.

For example, in the 98 World Cup, although the French team won the championship, most of their goals came from set kicks, including Zidane's two headers in the final.

France's biggest weakness compared to other European football powerhouses is that it has no style of its own.Italy has a concrete defense, Spain has delicate technology, Germany has iron blood and will, but France has no clear style of its own.Fan Shang feels that he has no way to change this weakness, so he can only "teach students according to their aptitude" and "adapt measures to local conditions" to make the best optimized combination with the existing cards.
