Chapter 267 Even the Champion
Of course, Ancelotti's surname is not An, nor is it an ordinary fat man, but a fat man who can only wrestle with Guardiola, the magic bird of Ferguson Ferguson.
Facts proved that Xiao Luo's so-called "hanging him out for a few days" was completely to scare Chu Yang. An Pang took over the team after they returned to Spain, which made Chu Yang feel relaxed and his teammates heaved a sigh of relief.
He was really scared by Chu Yang.
Unlike many coaches who were just passers-by in the player era, Ancelotti was the main midfielder of Roma and AC Milan in the player era. He won 2 Champions League titles and 3 Serie A titles. He participated in the 1986 and 1990 World Cups and the 1988 European Cup.
After starting his coaching career, Ancelotti's achievements are equally brilliant. Whether he is in AC Milan, Chelsea, Real Madrid, or Bayern, Ancelotti has achieved good results. The most important thing is that this old man is very good at being a man. There are few black spots in his conduct, words and deeds, and industry reputation.
Of course he is not perfect, and he is even criticized in many places, but he is definitely one of the best coaches in football today. Even Real Madrid, who once kicked him out, dare not question this.
For the sudden joining of such a world-renowned coach, Valencia was naturally surprised and delighted. The hastily held welcome ceremony and press conference were orderly, brief and grand, leaving a good impression on the old coach.
And the impression the new coach left on fans and players is equally good.
The appearance is simple and honest, the speech is gentle and polite, and it seems that it is easy to bully.
"I don't think I need to introduce myself. I am familiar with each of you. We don't have much time, so let's save all the links that can be omitted." Ancelotti's first training session was simple and crisp, "Cesc, warm up everyone first, Chu, come here for a while."
Chu Yang knew that what he wanted to ask should be about 4321. He probably already had some assumptions about this formation in his mind, and what Chu Yang put out in the warm-up match might just coincide with something in his mind.
"I heard that you led the team in those games you played in China?"
"Yes," Chu Yang didn't go around in circles, anyway, it's not something shady or mysterious and lofty, "What you want to ask is 4321, right?"
"That's right," Ancelotti nodded strangely. "As far as I know, Valencia has always played 442 and 451. Currently, most of the popular football formations are 433 and 4231. How could you think of forming such a formation? You are either a genius or a lunatic with four No. 10-like players on the field at the same time."
No matter what the formation is, it is extremely dependent and valued on the wing, especially in modern football, where wingers and full-backs are already one of the most important means of scoring for each team, but 4321 piled up five midfielders on the field at the same time, which is indeed a bit of a brain-dead thing.
"I don't think there is an absolute weakness in any formation. Everything is based on the ability of the players. Relatively speaking, the biggest advantage of the Christmas tree formation should be the defensive ability of the midfield line. At the same time, the real offensive organizers are placed behind and the team's brains are protected behind the two attacking midfielders. The main work of the two attacking midfielders becomes the final fatal pass or the back row.
After all, he had the experience of watching football in his previous life. Although it was all on paper, he could at least see some superficial things. In addition, he had personally experienced a few games on the sidelines and on the court, so Chu Yang could still make sense of what he said.
Ancelotti nodded frequently, "What about the shortcomings?"
"There are no wingers and front wingers to tear up the space to pose a threat. You can't use the width of the court to adjust the whole field. Basically, you can only rely on two full-backs. In addition, the requirements for players are almost harsh. A midfielder with exquisite skills and passing vision, a midfielder who can penetrate and shoot, and a center forward with super scoring ability are the most basic configurations."
"Do you think Harvey Alonso is qualified for this commander?"
"Actually, I have a better candidate, but they won't sell it," Chu Yang smiled wryly, "but Alonso is not bad either."
"What about the midfielder? You?"
"I thought I could do it too at first, but it turns out shooting is my favourite."
"Okay, last question," Ancelotti said, "are you confident of winning another championship this season?"
"Which one are you referring to?" Chu Yang smiled.
"Of course it's the biggest one." Ancelotti also laughed.
"Sorry, at this moment I almost thought I was facing Mourinho," Chu Yang said, "I didn't expect you to have a 'madman' side."
"I was a player, I'm a coach now, my goal is to be champions, it's as simple as that."
It's not easy to say that An Pang's noise is simple.
He almost broke up the entire team and reorganized it, allowing all players to try almost every position they can play.
It was not until August that the team's formation and starting lineup were settled, and then it made its debut in the Spanish Super Cup on August 8.
The Spanish Super Cup is a football tournament between last season's La Liga champions and the Copa del Rey champions. It is also the opening game before the start of the season.
In other words, this is another Valencia-Barcelona game.
Even if the grievances between the two are put aside, this is a game worthy of attention only from the competitive level.
The first round was held at the Nou Camp, so Castro, Rodri and others were only warmly greeted by a small number of Valencia fans, but the white eyes and sneers of the Valencia players probably made them unbearable.
In the player channel, Rodri, who is the main central defender of Barcelona, took the initiative to find his former teammates.
"Cesc, Chu, I'm sorry."
Mo Ya smiled and said nothing, while Chu Yang nodded lightly, patted him on the shoulder, and remained silent.
Player transfers are normal. As long as you don't transfer to the home of your arch-enemy or make too much trouble with the original club, you can still be friends if you can't be teammates.
Rodri's goal was very clear from the beginning. He wanted to come to Barcelona, but Barcelona already had Pique and Puyol on the back line at the time, and Valencia was only his second choice.
Now that Puyol is seriously injured and is about to retire, it is understandable that he switched to Barcelona.
Chu Yang couldn't say childish things like "you will regret it sooner or later". After all, in all fairness, Valencia and Barcelona, Mestalla and Camp Nou are indeed two different worlds.
Even if they were champions last season.
