Soccer: The Road to Extraordinary

Chapter 547 The Quietly Changing Atmosphere

How much change the new head coach can bring, all of these need to be reflected in the results.However, before the results came out, some changes were already underway.

"Mourinho is really different. Even the training atmosphere is different." After the training, Lin Fan said with emotion in the locker room.

"Indeed. Mourinho's requirements are even stricter!" Yan Feng said.

It is strict!Not strictly.

This is the biggest difference Yan Feng felt after Mourinho took over.When Pirlo was still there, he was actually very strict in training, but the relationship with the players was really like a brother.Therefore, the atmosphere is very relaxed when the players complete the requirements.

As for Mourinho, it is really a superior-subordinate relationship.In addition, there will be no brotherhood, master-student relationship or anything like that.The most obvious thing is that Mourinho never asked Yan Feng's opinions on various training or tactics.

When Pirlo was there, he would often find Yan Feng to discuss many issues of the team.Whenever there are major problems or decisions, Pirlo will talk to Yan Feng.It is often with the support of Yan Feng that Pirlo will take action.

With Pirlo's attitude towards him, Yan Feng always has a feeling in his heart that he is a part of this team.That sense of belonging, like he is also one of the core members of the big family of the team.

But Mourinho, the current Granada team belongs to Mourinho himself.Here, only Mourinho has the final say, players are just players, as long as they do their jobs according to his requirements, don't think too much.It can't be meddling or sharing his power.

"I really miss the days when Pirlo was here. Although he is the coach, I think he is like the big brother in our team. He is the leader. Now, it is not so comfortable." Lin Fan seemed a little uncomfortable The current atmosphere of the team.

"We professional players, how can we talk about comfort? A coach like Pirlo is hard to come by." After changing his clothes, Yan Feng glanced at Lin Fan and shook his head.

Yan Feng really thinks so.Pirlo's situation is rare.Because he has just changed from a player to a coach, and he still retains many imprints of the player era.It can be said that Pirlo is the coach, but it can be said that he and the players are growing together and exploring together.Peel is learning how to be a professional coach, which is why these players feel like a brotherly relationship.After waiting for a few years, after Pirlo has fully devoted himself to the role of coach, Yan Feng believes that in his future coaching, it will be difficult to have such shameless behavior.Even if there is, it will tend to be more coaching authority.

"Actually, let's not brag. Mourinho still needs to be more professional. He is indeed stronger and more confident in many aspects." Yan Feng thought for a while and said.

This is the truth.The team brought by Mourinho is more professional and authoritative than Pirlo's young team.In terms of various training details, the current team members are more detailed and more reasonable.The arrangements in all aspects are also more professional and effective.These are things that Yan Feng believes cannot be ignored.

"That's true. I just feel that life is not as easy as before." Lin Fan nodded and said.

"Now the goal is farther and bigger, and the pressure is naturally greater. It's normal." Yan Feng said.Under Mourinho's coaching style, everyone is full of pressure.He is so authoritative, everyone is afraid that he will be punished if he is not careful.Isn't there such a sentence?The new official will have three fires.Although foreigners don't have this sentence, they understand similar problems.Not to mention the great coercion brought by Mourinho's great reputation.

"We're fine, after all, we're in the midfielder position now. The Magic Flute and the others are having a hard time." Lin Fan said as he glanced at Modric in front of the locker room on the other side not far away.

"New head coach, new coaching style. You always need to re-adapt." Yan Feng also glanced at Modric.He could see that Modric's mood was somewhat worse than before.And that's all he could say.

Anyone who pays attention to today's football will know what Mourinho's tactical style is like.Mourinho, who prefers defensive players and utilitarian football, does not rely so much on technical players.And his tactical style will definitely limit the performance of players like Modric.

It has been half a month, and during the half month since Mourinho took over the Granada team, the smooth and gorgeous ground attack system of the Granada team is quietly disappearing.Instead, practice more defensive counterattacks, or even pure defensive tactics.

This change, as the team's offensive and defensive commander, Modric was a little uncomfortable.If the team focuses on defense, Modric, a player born for offense, will naturally decline in status and importance.When Mourinho began to reform the Granada team, Yan Feng could see that Modric was struggling.

Although it can be seen that Modric is struggling to adapt, Yan Feng believes that a professional player will definitely work hard to overcome this difficulty.Because adaptation itself is one of the abilities a player should possess.

At first, Yan Feng was a little worried that this discomfort would make Modric think of leaving.But it seems that Modric should not have this idea yet.

Not to mention Modric, Yan Feng himself is adapting.The relatively good thing is that Yan Feng is more adaptable to these new systems.Because before the arrival of Modric and others, the Granada team played defensively and counterattacked.As for the bus, Yan Feng can still come with confidence.

Yan Feng estimated that Modric might have remembered the situation when he worked with Mourinho in the Real Madrid team in the process of adapting.It is said that Modric was bought by Mourinho at Real Madrid.It's just that in that year, Modric's performance was extremely struggling and inefficient, and he was even scolded by fans as a parallel importer.

Yan Feng felt that as the captain, he could do his best sometimes.Fearing that one of the main comrades in arms would have a psychological burden, he turned his head and shouted: "Hey, Magic Flute, are you free tonight? If so, let's go out for a drink?"

"Oh, I think I should be free, Yan." Modric heard the words, looked at Yan Feng and responded.

"Shall I drink then?" Yan Feng said with a smile.

"Of course." Modric nodded and smiled back.

"Okay. I'll ask if the others are free, and if they want to go together."

"it is good."

Yan Feng didn't ask Lin Fan, this kid is a child slave now, and he would probably be more willing to take the children to play at night.Yan Feng went to ask other people, but unfortunately not many people were willing to go, only Sandel.

No way, Yan Feng's so-called drink is to drink coffee, not the favorite drink of ordinary players.Going out to drink coffee and not go on a date seems to be an activity for the elderly in the eyes of many players with excess energy.
