Amsterdam, The Netherlands.

Ronald Koeman, who is idle at home, is flipping through a book called "The Junkie".

This book is an autobiography from the famous Italian bad boy Cassano.

The reason Koeman is interested in this book is certainly not because Cassano admitted to having sex with 600-700 women, and to catch up with the basketball superstar Chamberlain who claimed to have had sex with 10000 women.

On the contrary, it is the process of Cassano and Capello from being like father and son to breaking up friendship is what Koeman is interested in.

The last time Koeman coached was in La Liga. He was not successful in Valencia. The complicated and chaotic locker room relationship was the main fuse for his final betrayal.

Of course he has to reflect, even if he refuses to admit it to the outside world, but he needs to find out the reason after calming down.

So he is very interested in some incidents where stars and coaches turn against each other, and wants to see from the player's perspective, what exactly did the coach do to anger the stars.

This is a different kind of empathy.

While Koeman was basking in the sun in the back garden and watching with relish, he read Cassano's claim that Capello was a "liar who printed counterfeit money", which made him laugh.

At this time, his wife came up behind him and said, "Ronald, there is a visitor. He said he was from England."

Coman closed the book and put it on the table next to the recliner, got up and walked into the living room. He was surprised to see a refined middle-aged man sitting on the sofa in the living room.

The other party got up and politely extended his hand to Coman and smiled: "Hello, Mr. Coman, I am Wilcott, CEO of Liverpool Club. Please forgive me for being a little abrupt when we first met."

Of course Koeman knows who the opponent is. The recent shock of Liverpool has spread throughout European football. Even people who occasionally read the news will not be unfamiliar with Wilcott.

It was he who announced the change of ownership of the Liverpool club, it was he who announced the joining of Qin Xiong, and it was he who announced the dismissal of Benitez.

This American who has just entered the British football world.It quickly became a media darling.

Koeman sat down after shaking his hand and accepting himself.

Wilcott cut to the chase: "As you know, Liverpool is currently short of a head coach. If my information is correct, you haven't accepted any invitation from any club, so Liverpool would like to offer you a job as a head coach." Job, I must say, first team assistant coach Sami Lee must stay at the club. If you accept the job and need your own assistant, we will have to discuss it. I wonder if you can give it to me in two days The answer? Because the new season is about to start, Liverpool can play without a manager in warm-up games, but not in the Premier League without a manager."

Koeman felt incredible after hearing Wilcott's words.

Liverpool actually offered him a job?

You must know that just over a year ago, he left in Valencia in disgrace and failed in a mess.

Koman didn't think for long at all.He suppressed the excitement in his heart, and said in a deep voice: "I can give you an answer right now, I accept this job!"

Wilcott originally felt that according to Koeman's current situation, Liverpool would offer him an olive branch, and the other party would definitely not refuse, so this invitation is very sure.Not surprisingly, Koeman agrees.

He stood up and shook hands with Koeman and said: "Then please come to the Liverpool club as soon as possible, we are now racing against time!"

......

Wilcott returned to Liverpool that day. As soon as he returned to the club, his secretary came to inform him that the representative of the Liverpool Diehard Fans Organization wanted to have a dialogue with him!

The fans couldn't sit still.They want to wake up the club through dialogue!

Representatives of the SPIONKOP organization were waiting for Wilcott outside his office. He had been waiting for a full seven hours.

From morning to evening.

After seeing Wilcott coming, Matt Samuel stepped forward and said: "Mr. Wilcott, I know you are very busy, but I think it is necessary to share with you my views on the development of the club. I know that you may not care what I say, but out of love for the club, I have the responsibility to convey to you what I want to express. I hope you will consider it carefully.”

Wilcott smiled and said: "We never ignore the voices of the fans. You are welcome. What do you want to talk to me about? Oh. Let's go in and talk."

As soon as he opened the door of the office, Samuel said, "Of course our team doesn't have a head coach yet!"

Wilcott sat down behind his desk and replied bluntly: "Oh. That's settled. We've got a new manager. It's just not announced yet."

"what?!"

Samuel looked at Wilcote in surprise. There was no media report about which head coach Liverpool had contacted with. Unexpectedly, the club had already signed a new head coach.

This was unexpected for Samuel. He didn't ask too much. He knew that a lot of information about the team was confidential, and he only needed to wait to know the result. There was no need to ask now.

"Oh, in that case, I won't disturb your work, goodbye."

Samuel turned and left Wilcott's office and spread the news quickly. Now, Liverpool fans are looking forward to the appearance of the club's new coach.

A day later, Liverpool officially announced the signing of a new head coach. The picture of Wilcott and Koeman shaking hands after signing the contract with the Liverpool club appeared on the official website!

Liverpool completed a series of major reforms in less than ten days!

The club has changed hands, the head coach has changed, as well as the introduction of superstars and the retention of important stars.

Koeman came alone. He didn't bring his own coaching staff this time. He learned the lesson from the failure in Valencia last time. He didn't want the interpersonal relationship in the team to be too complicated, so he didn't let the situation change first. It's complicated.

On August 8, the press conference hall of the Melwood Training Base.

Koeman held a press conference after officially taking office as Liverpool coach.

It was a routine press conference where he met the media as the new manager.

Fleet Street football media flocked.

There are also many Red Army fans gathered here outside the training base. To be honest, they are a little disappointed in their hearts.

The brilliance of Ronald Koeman's coaching career was only in the Netherlands, that's all. He led the Ajax youth army to create the myth of the Champions League, but after 2004?Perhaps PSV Eindhoven's Champions League breakthrough is an achievement, but such an achievement is not worth mentioning in the eyes of Liverpool.

And his last coaching experience ended in a complete failure in Valencia, which made the fans full of worries. (to be continued~^~)
