Chapter 460 Even Pan Yi Can't Save the Swedish Team
When the news of the resignation of the head coach of the Swedish national team, Hamlen, spread, there was an uproar in Sweden.

Although the fans are not satisfied with this head coach, they are still venting their emotions more. After all, there is nothing to lose by typing on the keyboard, right?
But changing coaches before the battle is a taboo for military strategists after all!

What's more, it is more than a week before the opening of the European Cup. Where can I find a suitable replacement?
Although Swedish fans have long thought that Hamlen will dismiss get out of class after the European Cup-after all, it is impossible to do anything in the group of death-but they never thought that Hamlen would suddenly run away with a bucket.

This also makes everyone feel even more desperate about Sweden's European Cup trip.

After the news came out, there was a lot of mourning in Sweden.

Even the most optimistic media and fans feel that their team will inevitably leave the European Cup stage after the group stage.

According to a data from Swedish Airlines, many fans who originally booked tickets to go to France to watch the game chose to refund their tickets!
This shows that many Swedish fans have no hope for the team's future in the European Cup!
The fans are like this, and the players are even more confused.

Except for Ibrahimovic, no one knows what happened in the past two days-after all, there is nothing certain, and Ibrahimovic will not talk nonsense to his teammates.

The only thing they know is that they lost their head coach and became the only team in the European Cup that got out of class before the coach started.

At this moment, they are walking towards the training ground, preparing for today's training.

The sunshine in Stockholm is very bright, but the temperature is not high, so it is very comfortable to bask in.

But the players who were supposed to enjoy the sunshine, all of them looked listless and drooped their heads at this moment.

They are like roosters who have lost their fight, they have no energy, no fighting spirit, and no one knows what to do.

Before the training, the national team officials announced a decision, and the two players Kuhovic and Zeng Jing left the team immediately.

This also means that these two players have missed the European Cup.

Although these two players are also marginal players of the national team, the decision to "lay off staff" at this juncture still puts everyone in danger.

Who made the decision?New coach?
Then will he think he is not pleasing to the eye, and cut himself off?

He didn't take us to a training session or play a game at all, so how could he change players at will?

Then he must be a self-willed person!
All kinds of speculation and doubts spread among the players of the national team, and the atmosphere of the team is of course not going to get better.

Even when they arrived at the training ground, went into the dressing room, changed their clothes, put on their shoes...

No one spoke during this process, and the vaguely heard movement was sighing, and there was a sentence written on everyone's face: "What should we do?"

Even the team's spiritual leader, captain Ibrahimovic, didn't know where he went today!
Is he going to run away too!
However, such doubts quickly dissipated.

Because when the 20 players of the Swedish national team walked out of the locker room and came to the training ground after a corner, they saw a familiar, tall figure.

Isn't this Ibrahimovic who?
At this time, Ibrahimovic was putting his arm on the shoulder of a young man beside him, chatting cordially.

Sensing that the players had arrived, both Ibrahimovic and the young man turned around and smiled at them.

This is……

The leading striker, Marcus Berry, wiped his eyes vigorously, and then looked intently...

That's right!

This is Pan Yi!

Although I haven't seen him face to face for several years, this is indeed his head coach in Hamburg, Pan Yi from Longguo!
"Boss, why are you here?" Marcus Berry ran a few steps and came to Pan Yi's side.

Although he was only a substitute striker when he was in Hamburg, he played a lot of time under Pan Yi's rotation policy, and he has always respected Pan Yi.

The main reason is that Pan Yi was still leading the team to play in the Champions League final a few days ago. Why did he come to the Swedish national team training center in Stockholm today?
Marcus Berry had a faint feeling in his heart that some great happy event was about to happen, but he denied himself again.

Pan Yi?Seven-time champion coach, come to coach the Swedish team?I'm afraid I haven't woken up yet!
It should be just to accompany Ibrahimovic to take a look, maybe it's a holiday in Sweden...

"Marcus, what are you doing running so fast..." A man ran up from the corner behind him was Forsberg, who played for the Leipzig Red Bull.

When he saw the hot man in front of him, he was also stunned.

Although he has never played under Pan Yi's command, is there really anyone in the world football who doesn't recognize this handsome face? ? ?
It can be said that no player is unwilling to play for him!
As a rare technical midfielder in the Swedish national team, Forsberg is even more so.

And now, a head coach of this historical level just appeared here, in the training base of the national team, what... what does this mean?
Immediately afterwards, the players of the Swedish national team came one by one, Isaacson, Lindelof, Kjellstrom...

Then one by one they all stood there dumbfounded.

They are not stupid. Now that the national team does not have a head coach, then Pan Yi, a top head coach, appeared, and he appeared with Ibrahimovic. There must be a connection between the two.

Sure enough, Ibrahimovic didn't have many BBs, so he pointed at Pan Yi and announced to everyone:

"Everyone knows Pan Yi, so I won't introduce him. From today on, he is the head coach of our Swedish national team, and he will lead us through this European Cup!"

The players all opened their mouths, not knowing what to say.

But soon, expressions of joy hung on the faces of each of them.

This is really Pan Yi!Living legend!
Champions League three consecutive championships, unbeaten in 76 league games, unbeaten in 26 games in the Champions League, winner of seven crowns!
He really came to coach the Swedish national team! ! !

This time the European Cup is saved! ! !
But when Pan Yi spoke, he was not polite:

"I am your head coach now, so you must obey my management."

"The training time this morning is set at 08:30 in the morning. Zlatan and I have been here since eight o'clock to wait for you."

"But what time did you guys arrive? It's already 10:[-]. You're [-] minutes late."

"Do you think 10 minutes is nothing special? 10 minutes per person, 20 of you, and 200 minutes of my time wasted!"

Ibrahimovic frowned, and couldn't help turning his head and whispering in Pan Yi's ear: "Is that how it is calculated?"

"Don't worry about it, this is our Dragon Kingdom's unique algorithm." Pan Yi said softly to Ibrahimovic, and then raised the volume to the players:

"Just 10 minutes late, and your mental outlook, I can see your laziness, your lack of discipline!"

"From now on, I will completely rectify the discipline in the dressing room of the Swedish national team!"

Pan Yi looked serious, and then pointed to Ibrahimovic: "Zlatan, you are the captain of the team, you have to remember it for me. If a teammate makes a mistake and you don't give supervision, you have to go with him be punished!"

Ibrahimovic was stared at by Pan Yi, his heart trembled for no reason, he raised his head and chest, nodded and agreed: "Understood!"

Although his relationship with Pan Yi has always been very good, he is also a member of the team, as well as the captain and leader of the team.

Therefore, in terms of team discipline, he must lead by example. In this regard, he does not have any privileges.

And Ibrahimovic has made such a statement, and these players of the Swedish national team naturally have nothing else to say.

Of course, Ibrahimovic is not actually required to take the lead.

Just because Pan Yi is standing here, everyone is excited and nervous, who dare not listen to him?

Pan Yi's identity and status are there!

Imagine that there are many players in the Swedish national team who come from second-tier teams in some second-tier leagues. They themselves are second-tier players. They may not be able to enter the giants for the rest of their lives, nor can they receive the guidance of the world's top coaches;
But today, there is one of the world's most powerful and honorable head coaches willing to coach them. It's too late to be happy. Who dares to hold back the fart?

Then, Pan Yi immediately announced his disciplinary guidelines:

"I will take you all the way to the end of the European Cup. It doesn't matter if you don't listen to me, but I have the right and ability to decide whether you will play the game. What's more, I have the right to impose any punishment on those who disobey, Even expelled from the national team!"

"Starting from today, each training session must arrive at a specified time in advance for warm-up, and train as soon as the time is up. If he is late like today, he will not have the opportunity to be in the next game in addition to the necessary penalty for running laps." debut."

"The reason is very simple, because I really don't like this kind of people who have no sense of time and discipline! Forget about it today, this rule will officially come into effect after I announce it!"

"I will inspect each player in training, and decide whether he can start and play based on his performance in training, so I hope you can perform well in training."

"After arriving in France, except for the opening hours specified by me, any family members must leave the hotel floor where the national team lives. The Football Association will arrange their rooms and residences, and you will not be allowed to accept interviews with reporters privately. Even if it's just one sentence!"

"During the European Cup, it is to train and compete well for me. As long as you persist for a month, you will be liberated!"

Pan Yi's series of words immediately shocked everyone present.

Whether it's players who haven't worked with him before, or former disciples like Marcus Berry and Ibrahimovic, they can only nod in approval.

Not much else to say, as far as that aura, that domineering, apart from him in today's football, I'm afraid it's hard to find a second one!
It can be summed up in one word: domineering sideways!
But they also heard some "hint" from Pan Yi's last sentence.

The European Cup opens on June 6, and the final is on July 11, exactly one month!

And Pan Yi asked the players of the Swedish national team to persist for a month...

Doesn't it mean that Pan Yi's expectation in his heart is to let the Swedish team reach the final?

This can't help but make the hearts of many players thump.

Everyone knows that the promises and goals set by Pan Yi will never be unfulfilled!

Could it be that they also hope to stage a Danish fairy tale like the 1992 European Cup?
Or like in 2004, come to Greek mythology?
But Pan Yi didn't make it clear.

After talking about discipline, Pan Yi waved his hand and told the players to go to training first.

From this point on, the players of the Swedish national team realized what high intensity is!
The first is that the teams are divided into three groups, which take turns for a total of 30 minutes of group confrontation.

Pan Yi asked all the players to go all out, and to carry out high-intensity physical training during the interval.

Then, Pintus, who had just canceled his vacation plan, came out with a gloomy face, and began to direct everyone to run around...

After this wave, the players were so tired that they almost fell to the ground.

Next, the medical team headed by Wolfart began to conduct physical examinations on the players one by one, as well as hydrotherapy recovery.

The purpose of doing this is to see if these players can withstand Pan Yi's high-intensity style of play!

If you get down after doing this, or even make a mistake, then you won't have to use it for the next training session.

And once these players pass the test, then Pan Yi can really start to formulate the most suitable tactics for this Swedish team...
-
A day later, Isaac and Kulusevsky, who were newly added to the training list, also came to the National Training Center to report.

Although many members of the national team were also a little bit guilty, they still warmly welcomed the two children.

The main reason is that although everyone knows that Pan Yi likes to train young players, for example, the 16-year-old Mbappé has already played in the Premier League;
But these two young ladies are too young!
Are they really ready to play for their country?
In other words, do they really have the talents like Mbappe, such young and mature?
However, in the subsequent training, the performance of the two teenagers was recognized by the players.

Especially Isaac, this guy is really comprehensive in terms of physical fitness and technical ability, he is simply a small Ibrahimovic!
Kulusevski was a little nervous, and he couldn't let go of his kicks, but this is also understandable.

After all, at such a young age, he was recruited to play for the national team before he played in the first team. Can you not be nervous?

With these two teenagers in place, the 23-man roster for the Swedish national team to participate in this European Cup is basically confirmed.

Of course, the final list submitted to UEFA will not be finalized until after the last warm-up match against Wales.

After all, if there is any injury or the like at that time, there will be another substitution.

At the same time, the Swedish Football Association also held a press conference in Stockholm, invited media from all over the world to participate, and officially announced the news that Eric Hamlen had resigned and had left the team.

At the same time, they also announced that the former Chelsea coach Pan Yilai will serve as the acting head coach, at least until the end of the European Cup.

As soon as this news was released, the press conference was released in an instant!

Then, the news quickly spread from Stockholm all over the world!
"The coach of the seven crowns went to coach the Swedish national team"

"Pan Yi did not renew his contract with Chelsea because he wanted to challenge the honor of the national team"

"Although there is Ibrahimovic, can the Swedish team really qualify in the group of death?" "

"Changing coaches, even Pan Yi should not be able to turn the tide"

"Pan Yi's wise life may be ruined by this impulsive choice"

"Isn't it good to go to the Belgian national team?Only the golden generation has the hope of winning the championship! "

……

Obviously, although shocked by Pan Yi's choice not long after the Champions League final, many media are not optimistic about Pan Yi's trip to the national team.

The reason is also very simple. The national team is no better than the club. If there is a shortage of players in some positions, there is no way to find someone in the transfer market. You can only look for players with Swedish nationality.

As far as Sweden's current talent pool is concerned, there are really no powerful roles, otherwise the national team roster would not be full of players from second-tier teams, such as Copenhagen, AEK Athens, Malmo, Olympiacos, Paragon, etc. Nathinaikos...

The one who can really do it is the veteran Ibrahimovic alone.

Among other well-known players, Forsberg is really good, but he is the core of the Leipzig Red Bull, and he is not considered a rich player;

Lindelof is the core of Benfica's defense. It is said that Manchester United has also taken a fancy to him, but he hasn't gone yet after all;

Guidetti is Celta's main striker. In fact, he was a member of Manchester City in the early years, but he only played one League Cup and has been loaned out;
Schelstrom is an old Arsenal player, but he is no better than Guidetti. He has only played three times for Arsenal.

The wealthy career is second only to Ibrahimovic, that is, goalkeeper Isaacsson.

There is a little story about him.

He played for Juventus for two years around 2000, but did not make a single appearance;
Later, he moved to Manchester City at the invitation of his fellow Eriksson, and he was indeed the main goalkeeper at the time, but the unlucky thing happened to him immediately-he was seriously injured!
This injury turned Manchester City's main goalkeeper into Schmeichel Jr. As a result, in the game against Fulham, Schmeichel lost two consecutive high balls and lost his trust.

After the Manchester City goalkeeper suffered serious injuries, serious illnesses and major mistakes, the third goalkeeper Joe Hart successfully took the position.

In the match against Sunderland in the 12th round of the league, such a classic scene was left in the entrance ceremony: the 20-year-old Joe Hart walked towards us in front, and the 30-year-old Joe Hart walked towards us in the back. Sun Jihai, with a 7-year-old caddy in the middle, his name is Phil Foden...

Three Manchester City players spanning three eras just appeared in the same shot.

Of course, all this has nothing to do with Isaacson.

He was sold to Eindhoven in the second season, and he has been farther and farther away from the giants since then, and now he can only play for the Kasempassa team in Turkey.

In other words, in the current Swedish national team, except for the 34-year-old Ibrahimovic who still has the strength to play for the giants, and Forsberg and Lindelof who are regarded as quasi-rich players, the others are at most leftovers from the giants That's all.

As for the two young men that Pan Yi quickly recruited after he took office... Who are these?

Even if they look at the young people in Pan Yi's eyes, even if they have some strength, they are still only [-] or [-] year olds.

Doesn't this just show that Sweden simply doesn't have a solid backbone right now?
It is precisely because of this that everyone is generally pessimistic about the prospects of Pan Yi, the Swedish team.

In addition, there is another reason why the media and fans are not optimistic about Sweden, that is, too little time is given to Pan Yi.

As we all know, Pan Yi is a head coach with magical power. He can always turn decay into magic, making many originally unknown players become world-famous stars.

There are too many examples here to list them all.

Because of this, when Pan Yi summoned Isaac and Kulusevsky, the discussion was not so big.

After all, when he recruited players like Vardy and Mane, they were not even professional players. This starting point is not as good as these two teenagers.

Isaac also played in the Swedish Super League and scored goals, and Kulusevski is also a serious Atlanta youth training.

But the problem is, it seems that there is not enough time for Pan Yi to cultivate them into talents!

When I was in the club, there was a long summer training period and winter training period. No matter how bad it was, there was still a whole season for the players to adapt slowly and gradually get used to the team.

Just like Mbappe, who is also 16 years old, Pan Yi has slowly cultivated him in this way, and now he has become a supernova that is attracting worldwide attention.

But in the national team, obviously this cannot be done.

It is now ten days before the Swedish team's European Cup opener.

Can a player be reborn in ten days?This is obviously unrealistic.

Even the members of the Swedish national team who were already in the team probably haven't cultivated a tacit understanding with each other.

In such a short period of time, let alone individual growth, even running the existing lineup well is a difficult task.

Coupled with the poor performance of the Swedish team in the qualifiers and warm-up matches, the morale of the team was low, which was a big test for Pan Yi.

Of course, there are also some people who don't care about these things. They only care about Pan Yi's joining the Swedish national team itself.

That's sponsors from all walks of life!
Especially those Swedish brands that were a bit indifferent to the national team, suddenly became enthusiastic!

What ERICSSON, IKEA IKEA, Elextrolux Electrolux, H&M, Spotify...

In particular, the Longguo Geely Automobile Group, which has acquired the ownership of Volvo, the Swedish national car brand, even sent representatives directly to talk with the Swedish Football Association.

After all, this happens to be an excellent example of the combination of China and Switzerland, and it is also a living and good advertisement!

Just this year, Volvo Cars has achieved the best sales volume in history since the brand was founded, and it can be added to the fire!

With Pan Yi's popularity, image, and strength, Volvo Cars can definitely gain more attention!

Even the advertising words, Volvo has already thought about it:
"The attitude of a successful person is calm; the pattern of a leader is calm and generous. As the king of the Swedish auto industry, Volvo Cars will take you to experience the Swedish national team under Pan Yi..."
