Chapter 1025 Comparable?
When Fang Wei mobilized the club's executives in the capital to convey Yang Huan's meaning, the master, Master Huan, appeared in Milan, Italy.

As the management of several clubs became more and more formalized, Yang Huan had fewer and fewer things to intervene in.

This is also normal, because he is the boss, if he always jumps in and intervenes, how can he make the employees under him deal with it?
Therefore, he basically just needs to convey his own ideas and how to do it. The people under him will naturally help him complete it. He only needs to review the results.

Because of this, Young Master Huan is quite free, and whenever he has time, he walks around, living a happy life.

But while walking around, he didn't forget the business.

No, by watching the Milan Derby in Milan City, and witnessing Inter Milan's [-]-[-] victory over AC Milan in an away game.

But after the game, Young Master Huan dragged Bielsa, the technical director of the Beijing Guoen team, to appear in the luxury box on the third floor of Tingyuxuan in the Nerazzurri City, welcoming the guests he had been waiting for for a long time.

"Hello, Mauricio!"

When the slightly fat middle-aged man in a thick down jacket walked into the box under the guidance of the waiter, both Yang Huan and Bielsa stood up at the same time, and Young Master Huan immediately greeted him with a smile and extended his hand.

"Hello, Master Huan!" The visitor was a little flattered, and quickly stretched out his hands to hug Master Huan's right hand.

"It's really nice to meet you, Mauricio. You know, Marcelo has always told me that you are the best player he has brought out, and you will definitely become the best head coach. I have no doubts about his vision!" Yang Huan said with a smile.

After hearing this, Mauricio Pochettino immediately looked at his mentor Bielsa who was standing next to Master Huan. His eyes were full of gratitude, but he didn't say anything. He walked over and gave Bielsa a close and warm hug.

Seeing the two like this, Yang Huan deeply felt the friendship between them, but for some reason, he couldn't help but think of another thing in his mind, an unbearable past about Pochettino.

It is said that when Bielsa was coaching the Newell's Old Boys, he wanted to sign Pochettino, so he ran to Pochettino's house overnight, but Pochettino's mother said that her son was already asleep, and he still slept naked, and Bielsa said, it's good to sleep naked, just to see his physical condition.

So, Bielsa directly opened the door and entered the room, lifted the quilt, exclaimed again and again, saying that he is in great shape!
Well, Yang Huan thinks that this may be made up by the news media to make big news, but it clearly reflects the friendship between Bielsa and Pochettino.

In fact, Pochettino later entered the Argentine national team, also from the promotion of his mentor Bielsa.

The friendship between the two is not deep. During Bielsa's coaching at Southampton, Pochettino also came to the UK many times for advice.

If you really want to count, Pochettino can be regarded as Bielsa's most direct disciple after Martino.

Of course, because of being deeply baptized by European professional leagues, Pochettino's football philosophy is somewhat different from Bielsa's. He should be considered more rational and pay more attention to balance, but the pursuit in his bones is exactly the same.

For a long time, from Inter Milan to Hamburg to Monaco, Pochettino has always been one of Yang Huan's candidates for coaching, and Bielsa also highly respects him.

Yang Huan remembers that Pochettino was doing very well in the Premier League when he was traveling in his previous life.

But now, perhaps because Yang Huan's arrival changed history, the trip to Southampton, which was supposed to bring Pochettino a career turnaround, did not appear at all. Therefore, after the Spaniard dismissed get out of class, although Pochettino also coached other teams, they were all short-lived and the results were not satisfactory.

But this does not prevent Yang Huan and his team from admiring Pochettino at all.

If you are an ordinary fan, you will definitely feel that Pochettino has no coaching level at all, and has even fallen to the point where no one cares about him. How could such a head coach be favored by Yang Huan?
But in Master Huan's eyes, the problem shouldn't be viewed that way.

The success of a team depends on many factors, and the head coach is only part of it, but not all.

It's like Pochettino coaching the Spaniard. He was very successful at the beginning, but then it didn't work. Why?
Because the club sold several players and cashed out, but failed to fill the vacancies of the players. At this time, the head coach can do very little. Dismissing get out of class because of poor grades is more like taking the blame.

Furthermore, isn't it purely self-inflicted for a head coach like Pochettino who pays attention to pass and control to go to coach a powerful team composed of black and strong players?

Therefore, in many cases, the success or failure of the head coach is not as simple as ordinary fans see.

If it is really just to judge heroes by success or failure, then who has never failed?
After reviewing Pochettino's resume and his coaching situation, Yang Huan can basically confirm that there is no problem with the head coach's ability. Even in the past years of coaching career, he has been constantly improving his football philosophy. He also has rich coaching experience and can always find a series of safe and reliable solutions when encountering problems.

All he lacks is an opportunity!
However, for a head coach like him who has been in the middle and lower reaches of the team for a long time, it is really very difficult to get a stable and relaxed coaching environment and at the same time meet a team that fits his tactical philosophy.

This caused him to be displaced and frustrated in the past few years.

Therefore, upon receiving the call from Master Huan, coupled with the strong recommendation from his mentor Bielsa, Pochettino knew that this was definitely a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity for him.

As long as he can coach well in China, he will definitely have the opportunity to land in the European League again and coach powerful.

Southampton, Monaco, Hamburg, Inter Milan, and Atletico Madrid are the current leaders of the five major leagues. They are all young master Huan's teams. Coaching any one can help Pochettino become famous and even establish the title of first-line coach in one fell swoop.

That's why Pochettino willingly accepted Master Huan's invitation to coach in China.

"Master Huan, this is a plan that I have carefully prepared over the past month or so."

Pochettino took out two documents from his briefcase and handed them to Yang Huan and Bielsa respectively.

The former is the boss and the chief examiner, while the latter is the technical director of Jingcheng Guoen, who can be regarded as the head coach's immediate boss.

Yang Huan took it, opened it, and found that various training and management details were listed very clearly and meticulously.

For example, in the pre-season training camp, Pochettino admitted frankly that his tactics require high physical fitness, so he needs to increase the intensity of training. During the training camp in Spain, he will resolutely adopt three training sessions a day, and each training session is 10 minutes.

But if it's just that, then that's fine, he even arranged the content of the training camp and every training arrangement.

For example, based on his own tactical characteristics and past coaching experience, he felt that before the end of each training session, a long-distance run would help improve the physical condition of the players, so he decided to arrange such a training.

Of course, this is just a training camp before the season. Once the league starts, adjustments must be made.

At that time, he will appropriately reduce the amount of training according to the schedule, but he will not relax the requirements for players' physical reserves.

In this plan, he also expressed his hope to introduce Southampton's training equipment, including a complete set of team video and analysis systems.

Yang Huan was not surprised by this, because this whole set is a treasure, and everyone who has used it agrees that it is good.

Not to mention anything else, Bielsa needless to say, he came to the capital Guoen as a technical director, but he never forgot about the Saints, Tuchel, Simeone, Klopp, Ronald Koeman, after this group of guys are used to it, once they leave, it is guaranteed that they will find it difficult to adapt.

After closing the proposal, Yang Huan glanced at Bielsa, who also finished reading it and nodded.

Master and apprentice belong to master and apprentice, and Bielsa is the technical director, so he also has to consider his own career.

Besides, he has an equally close relationship with Master Huan. The cooperation and trust established over the years is not a joke, especially the kindness that Master Huan has shown him.

"OK, Mauricio, I very much agree with your training plan, especially the training intensity, but what I want to say is that there are several veterans in the team, and you have to analyze the specific situation at that time."

Pochettino nodded in understanding.

Every team has its special circumstances. As the head coach, he can only accommodate.

And now in this situation, after the team is updated, it is very necessary to have veterans including Xu Yunlong and Zhou Ting sit in charge to help the new coach and the new management stabilize the morale of the army.

If you can't even handle such a trivial matter, then Pochettino might as well stop messing around.

Yang Huan felt that high-intensity training is not necessarily a bad thing.

Many people think that the low level of domestic football is because the players are not strong enough, but is this really the case?
If you want to compare big-name superstars like Messi, that's for sure. There is only Messi and Ibrahimovic in the world. Can you compare them?

But if you want to compare the mainstream professional players in the five major European leagues, it's not that the players are not strong enough.

What is the reason?

The overall awareness of the players is not enough!
To give a simple example, if in Europe, a team composed of eleven players can play the effect of eleven or even more players on the court through reasonable tactics and teamwork, then in China, because of the looseness in this aspect, it may not be able to play the effect of even eight players, let alone eleven players.

Throughout the history of Chinese players studying abroad, almost all failures are not because the players are not capable enough, but because they cannot cooperate with the team, integrate into the collective battle, and cannot become part of the team.

In this case, the European coach's approach is to choose a player with weak personal ability but who can integrate into the team as a whole, rather than let this player destroy the integrity of the team.

Therefore, many fans think that the biggest problem for Chinese players studying abroad is their lack of personal ability, which is actually wrong.

The real problem is that the players' tactical awareness and teamwork awareness are not enough.

Yang Huan is very supportive of Pochettino's proposal to strengthen the usual training intensity.

The overall combat capability of the team is often accumulated by daily training.

One of the important reasons why he chose Pochettino and Bielsa is that they conform to the most advanced tactical development trend, they resolutely implement holistic football and insist on team fighting.

As for what to say, can domestic players understand the head coach's tactical philosophy?

Yang Huan was not worried at all.

Really capable people are often able to explain some very advanced theories in simple terms.

Therefore, whether the players can understand, this is not a problem, the problem is whether your head coach has any dry goods?

Yang Huan believes that Bielsa has enough dry goods, and Pochettino is not bad.

"Master Huan, I wonder if I can make a suggestion?" Pochettino looked at Yang Huan with stubbornness in his eyes.

　Wooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooese

　　An honest person like me is really not suitable for playing cards!
　　Must make a copy tonight!
