The Era of Emerald

In Zhuang Mingge's memory, Pirlo's position on the court was gradually changed from front to back, from the front midfielder to the back midfielder (and now a forward is added). This is a position change that is difficult for ordinary players to complete. , Even in the eyes of many coaches, such a change is a bit unreasonable.

After all, the striker generally pays attention to the instantaneous court wisdom and the mobilization of his own energy, the attacking midfielder pays attention to the reasonable deployment of offensive resources, and the defensive midfielder needs to connect the team's offensive and defensive systems in the most effective way.

It can be said that the "position" change that happened to Pirlo is no small miracle.In Zhuang Mingge's previous life, not to mention Pirlo's achievements in the defensive midfielder, the talent he once showed in the forward and midfield positions alone is enough to attract countless teams to compete for him.There is no doubt that Pirlo is a very comprehensive player, but this was precisely his biggest embarrassment at the time.Before the technical style was fully finalized, he did not find a sense of belonging in the position.

At this time, Zhuang Mingge is also facing this question: How should he cultivate and shape the talented Pirlo?

At least the current head coach of the youth team, Mr. Pirlo, cannot fully tap the huge potential of Pirlo.A famous teacher produces a good apprentice, even a genius like Maradona needs the guidance of a famous teacher. Even the shining gold can only be dim under the long-term cover of sand.Gold can wait for a bright day in the future, but Pirlo doesn't have much youth to waste.

Zhuang Mingge always felt that although the Pirlo in his memory "finally came to fruition", it was still a bit late to "develop" him, and perhaps he should achieve greater achievements.

Pirlo's specialty on the court is his super observation and control skills. However, these very difficult to observe abilities were not noticed when Pirlo was young.On the contrary, his relatively quantifiable technical abilities such as good dribbling skills, precise shooting and outstanding speed have attracted the attention of many teams.

Zhuang Mingge believes that the first thing Pirlo needs to do now is how to become a qualified leader player. This kind of temperament needs to find a "teacher" to dig out for him.

Therefore, in order to cultivate Pirlo's leadership qualities, the first "teacher" Zhuang Minge invited for him was the main midfielder of the Fiorentina first team, Stefan Effenberg.

The reason why Effenberg was chosen was first of all because the technical style of the German and Pirlo of the later generations basically matched, and the most important point is that although Batistuta is the leader of Fiorentina now, when the When an accident happened, Effenberg was the first to rush forward to negotiate with the referee.It can be said that with Effenberg on the court, the Fiorentina players never worry about their opponents daring to slap them.

Effenberg's role is equivalent to what Keane is to Manchester United and Vieira is to Arsenal. Which player dares to stroke the beards of these two players?The most obvious example is that after Vieira left Arsenal, the frequency of Arsenal players' injuries in the game has greatly increased...

At the same time, Zhuang Minge also invited Batistuta and the Germans to train Pirlo together.After all, Zhuang Mingge only hopes that Pirlo can learn his arrogance from the tiger, not his personality like a time bomb; Batty on the court is the "fire extinguisher" for the German tiger to go crazy on the court, and Batistuta Zhuang Minge believes that Pirlo will not go astray.

Batistuta was very happy when Zhuang Mingge said that he wanted to invite himself to train a young player. He said that he would be happy to pass on his skills to the next generation of Fiorentina.

And Effenberg agreed to train Pirlo at the beginning, largely because of Karin's "threat of force".After all, after being punished by Karin back then, Effenberg obeyed Karin's instructions and obeyed everything. He was completely different from the German tiger who frequently caused troubles in the German national team.

Since both Effenberg and Batty have to participate in the training of the first team, the time to teach Pirlo is only a few hours after the training is over and before dark. During normal training, the two cannot go to the youth team. Come to train Pirlo.

After discussing with Antonioni and others, Zhuang Minge believes that a few hours of leadership training every day is enough. Therefore, Pirlo will be equipped with a few full-time football coaches to strengthen his skills and overall situation. and other capabilities.

Zhuang Mingge is still considering the candidates for these coaches.

What?You say Pekerman?

Certainly not. Pekerman has done a good job in the Argentine National Youth Team and is preparing for next year's World Youth Championship in Qatar. Why do you have to travel halfway around the world to train a young player?

Wenger?

With the help of Zhuang Mingge, Comrade "Professor" led Monaco to the semi-finals of the Champions League last season, and catching up in the second half of the Ligue [-] league, and finally won the league runner-up.Now the "professor" is nourishing in the club, and there are countless young talents in the team: Zinedine Zidane, Claude Makelele, Vincent Candela, Fabian Barthez, Leigh Lian Thuram...and Thierry Henry and David Trezeguet who have started to emerge this season. Wenger can't even take care of these children of his own. Have you heard of Pirlo as a full-time nanny?

Just because of how many players Zhuang Mingge recommended to him?Just kidding? !

Old Maldini?Tardelli?

The ability of these two celebrities to train young players is also top-notch, but now they are coaching the Italian national youth team, and they are also the type of people who don't have time. Zhuang Mingge had to reluctantly give up this seemingly attractive choice...

……

On the training ground, the Fiorentina players were training under the guidance of their coaches, while Zhuang Mingge was staying in his office at the training base, worrying about Pirlo's full-time coach, when a guest he didn't expect rang. The door to the office.

"Long time no see, Mr. Corleone." The person who came was the Dutch star Van Basten who stayed in Florence to receive treatment from Dr. Carter and Dr. Nelson. However, the worry between his brows has decreased a lot, and it seems that the effect of the treatment is not bad. Yes, "I heard that you are looking for a full-time coach for a little guy named Andre Pirlo recently. Is that true?"

"Marco, how many times have I said, just call me Antonio." Zhuang Mingge was still not used to Basten's "politeness", but he replied honestly, "That's right, but I really can't think about it now. There is a suitable candidate."

"There are so many excellent coaches in Italy, do you actually look down on any of them?" Basten was a little surprised.

"Italian coaches are best at the study of tactics, and the training of players is generally more modeled, and there are few examples of teaching students in accordance with their aptitude."

……

"Karin, it looks like we're going to the Netherlands. Please book two tickets to Amsterdam." Zhuang Mingge, who had a detailed talk with Basten, said after seeing off the Dutchman.

"Okay, I'll arrange it now."
