Chapter 487
Bielsa brought many positive changes to Southampton, and the most accepted by the players was his tactical training class.
The training building in Steptwood has a tactical room dedicated to the first team, which is where tactical training classes are conducted.
Before almost every game, Bielsa will hold a class here to analyze the gains and losses of the previous game, where the winning is, where the losing is, and where the loss is, and at the same time, it will also study the detailed technical files of the opponents in the next game.
Each player will receive a report on their previous game and a technical analysis report on the opponent's players in the next game. Both reports are the hard work of the analysis team.
In addition, Bielsa will also use video to explain the tactical gains and losses of the previous game, and deeply analyze the tactical situation of the opponent in the next game, as well as various response plans.
All the game videos were edited and produced by Bielsa himself, and are often some time periods in the game that he thought were very representative, or some highlights.
He believes that such analysis can cultivate players' sense of responsibility and deepen their understanding of football and tactics.
In fact, Bielsa's tactical training sessions are very popular in Steptwood.
Not only the first team players are listening, but many times, even the youth team players will come over and stand outside to listen to the class.
Bielsa's wisdom and his amazing football knowledge can always instill his football philosophy and knowledge into the listeners in an easy-to-understand way, so that everyone can understand his philosophy and ideas.
When Yang Huan walked into Stapletwood with all the reporters' stunned gaze, Bielsa was in the tactical room for the tactical training class before the next round of the Premier League.
And Southampton's next opponent is Newcastle.
Newcastle's head coach is Southampton's former coach, Alan Prayed Du
Outside the tactical room, there were many young players from the youth team standing. Their training class had not started yet, so they came to listen to Bielsa's tactical class. Every window was filled with people.
Bielsana's loud voice came from the tactical room.
As soon as Yang Huan approached, the young players noticed him.
"Young Master Huan..."
Yang Huan made a swearing move, and the smart little ghosts all smiled tacitly and continued to listen.
Standing outside, Yang Huan looked at Bielsa's analysis in combination with the video, and felt like he was a university professor, not a passionate football coach at all.
Perhaps, Bielsa should be considered the coach with the deepest understanding of tactics in the football field.
"From the beginning of the season to now, I have been repeatedly stressing one thing that the tactics arranged by the head coach of the Premier League will be more targeted, and we must learn to adjust ourselves better according to our opponents."
"I think that the four champions of last season, as well as the International Champions League, Community Shield and European Super Cup this season, have made many of us blinded, not aware of the cruelty of Premier League competition, and have not clearly seen the problems we have, that is, this is our first season in the Premier League."
Everyone present was silent, many players nodded, and some people showed a look of thinking.
There is no doubt that Bielsa's prestige in the team is unquestionable.
With the support of Yang Huan and the management, Bielsa can almost be said to be a cover-up in Staplewood.
"At the beginning of the season, I also mentioned that the start of the league is very important. A good start may not have good results, but it will definitely not be too bad. However, a bad start will be difficult to have good results, and it will often make the results worse."
When everyone heard this, they couldn't help but feel a little worried.
Southampton is currently ranked 11th, and this ranking is enough for a newly promoted team.
But for a strong Southampton, neither the management nor the players can accept such a ranking.
"Now, I don't know how you think of the previous twelve rounds of the league, but in my opinion, it's not good enough."
"We played very well in the Europa League, qualified in the group, and played very well in the League Cup. We ranked 11th in the league, which is indeed quite a hit, but when we look back, most of the opponents we meet are ranked ahead of us."
When everyone heard this, they couldn't help but smile.
Is Bielsa a bit of humor?
If so, then his humor is really special.
"I think the result is really not too bad. More importantly, it makes us let go of the burden in our hearts."
"A new season is a new beginning. We have nothing to do with the UEFA Champions last season. Now we are just a team of promoted teams who don't have much experience in the Premier League."
"We don't need to be afraid of anything, because we have nothing to lose. Now the overwhelming doubts about us are all over the place. What else can we be afraid of?"
"The more you are afraid of what happens, the more often it will appear in front of you."
"So, when we play Newcastle, we don't need to have psychological pressure. This team is not strong at all. Really, believe me."
"As long as you believe me, we will definitely not lose."
Bielsa's words won the recognition of almost all players.
Because in the past two years, he has proved his words with facts and achievements.
After saying this, Bielsa was about to announce the end of the tactical training class, but Yang Huan knocked on the door of the tactical room at this time.
"Master Huan?"
Yang Huan's sudden appearance shocked everyone inside and outside the venue.
There are overwhelming reports from outside media that Bielsa is about to be dismissed, and even rumors that senior officials in Southampton came into contact with a famous coach. Young Master Huan suddenly appeared at this time. Is it really necessary to confirm the speculation of the outside media?
After Yang Huan walked into the tactical room, he saw that although everyone present was silent, everyone was communicating with worried eyes. He knew what was going on and smiled lightly.
"I'm here today, mainly because I have two things to say."
The players' hearts suddenly became thrust, and even Bielsa on the podium couldn't help but show a look of nervousness.
"First, I will clarify on behalf of the club management that we have no senior executives who have private contact with other head coaches. If anyone has any evidence, they can be taken out. I will fire him on the spot, no matter who he is."
Yang Huan's serious expression made everyone present deeply feel his determination.
At this moment, the team's morale cannot be shaken
"Secondly, on behalf of the club management, I formally filed a renewal negotiation application to Mr. Marcelo Bielsa. We in Southampton are very sincere and hope to sign a new five-year contract with Mr. Bielsa."
Everyone present was shocked when they heard this news.
Immediately afterwards, everyone in the entire tactical room was in an uproar and everyone started to talk.
Soon, including Ibrahimovic, Neyr, Vidal, Neymar, Xavi Martinez, Tony Kroos and others, stood up one after another, and gave a warm applause to the club's actions.
Yes, the team is indeed facing a crisis now, and Bielsa is even more questioned by the media and fans.
In this case, no matter how much the players and Bielsa say, it is useless. At critical moments, the club still needs to stand up and express their opinions. The one who best represents the club's will is undoubtedly the Young Master Huan in front of him.
He said one, who dares to say two in Southampton?
The players are convinced by Bielsa. At least in the past two seasons, Bielsa has proved himself to be a trustworthy head coach with practical actions and has won the trust of the players.
Therefore, in the face of the crisis, the players choose to support the head coach.
At this time, the club stands up again, and there will be no problems within Southampton
"Okay, I want to say these two things. Let's all break up," Yang Huan said with a smile.
"Oh, by the way, I'll treat you tonight, see you in Wangjiang Pavilion"
When the players heard Mr. Huan say this, they all felt relieved.
The team's performance was not good, and the pressure was pressing on their hearts like a mountain, but at this time, Young Master Huan's relaxed appearance and his statements told the players that the club still had full trust in them.
This made everyone feel relieved and their moods became more and more refreshed.
Bielsa also waved her hand and signaled the players to prepare for the afternoon training class.
After the players and coaching staff left, Bielsa looked at Yang Huan gratefully, "Thank you, Master Huan"
Yang Huan smiled and patted Bielsa on the shoulder, "I'm not for you, I'm for my team."
Bielsa smiled.
"Just let go and do it. I believe that nothing can make you rare. If you have any need, call me at any time and I will do my best to help you solve it." Yang Huan gave the greatest promise he could make.
Bielsa was really touched. In his opinion, Yang Huan was simply heart-warming about him.
To be honest, the two most important factors affecting the head coach’s coaching are: one is the internal atmosphere of the club and the other is the team’s lineup configuration.
Yang Huan's trust in him is beyond doubt, and he has reached the level of unquestionable employment. The team has been doing its best to create a good atmosphere for him, and he knows this.
As for the team's lineup configuration, the whole world knows that Southampton's lineup is definitely a team-level configuration for the Premier League championship.
The reason why the outside world questioned him so much is that he brought a lineup that should at least be at the forefront of the league and showed strong competitiveness to the mid-level of the current standings.
So, there is definitely no problem with Southampton's lineup.
So what is the problem?
Bielsa knows very well
So he could no longer make any request to Young Master Huan or the club management.
"Believe me, Young Master Huan, even now, our goal is still the top four," Bielsa promised loudly.
Yang Huan smiled and spread her hands, "I have never doubted you."
He still remembers clearly in his mind that Bielsa told him that as long as the players do exactly what he asked, his team would not be defeated
At that time, the fanatical and almost paranoid expression of the Argentine lunatic was deeply imprinted in his mind.
"I'll leave the matter on the court to you."
Yang Huan clapped his hands heavily, "But, some annoying guys, like flies all day long, chirping around our ears, making people feel annoyed. I'll teach you a lesson | Lesson | Him him."
"It's better to just shut up"
After saying that, Yang Huan turned around and left with a smile.
Bielsa stood alone in the tactical room, watching Young Master Huan leave, wondering, who is that fly-like guy?
Soon, a person immediately emerged from the mind of the smart Argentinian.
This guy has been saying bad things about Southampton for a while, almost once a week, and is more diligent than the league.
After all, the league occasionally stops due to the national team, but this guy never stops his mouth.
Chapter completed!
