Extraordinary coach
Chapter 102 This attitude is only suitable for sitting on the bench
Nice's adjustments soon showed results.
The threat created by Nantes was obviously not as good as before. Moreover, Dong Fangzhuo can also play to his speed advantage.
This made Sun Yi, Dio and others feel relieved.
These situations are the feelings of coaches. But for the fans, it is not so. In their view, the situation that was originally evenly matched has now become a situation where Nantes is suppressing the team. This cannot make the fans happy in any way.
"Why not play Balotelli today? He was only suspended for the Europa League. He is not even on the substitute list. It is really puzzling."
"It would be great if Balotelli was on the court today. Dong can't compare with him at all. With Balotelli on the court, how could we be suppressed like this? Maybe, we would have been ahead a long time ago."
Seeing that the scene was not good, the fans of Nice thought of Balotelli. The more they thought about it, the more they felt puzzled that Sun Yi did not put Balotelli in the game list today.
The fans were dissatisfied, but the game did not develop in a worse direction.
Since then, Nice has always implemented the strategy of defensive counterattack, and they guarded the gate very tightly. They did not give Nantes any chance to score.
However, the overall poor state did not allow them to give Nantes a fatal blow in the attack. Although they also kicked out some opportunities. Even a good opportunity for "Mourinho counterattack".
Unfortunately, the goalkeeper of Nantes performed bravely today and blocked Dong Fangzhuo's shot.
In the end, the game ended in 0:0 when the two sides were evenly matched on the field.
A dull draw!
A draw, each player got one point. Both sides can still accept it.
Sun Yi did not feel dissatisfied after the game.
But the fans of Nice were a little dissatisfied. After the game, they all said: "Why did we play so unimpressively today?"
"Why didn't Balotelli play?"
"If Balotelli had played, we would have won the game long ago. How could it be so ugly and boring!"
"Balotelli didn't even make the roster. Is he injured?"
For this game, not only Nice fans have such confusion, but many media reporters also have the same doubts. At the press conference after the game, a reporter asked Sun Yi a similar question.
Regarding the team's lack of momentum and the ugly game. Sun Yi's explanation is that the team may have entered a temporary trough after a long outbreak.
Regarding the question about Balotelli, Sun Yi said that Balotelli was not injured, but considering certain circumstances, he was arranged to rest.
Sun Yi's explanation made the media reporters think that Balotelli was a little tired and was taking a rest.
But after the game, not long after, someone saw Balotelli's new words and some pictures on Twitter.
"I'm fine. I had a lot of fun today!"
Then there were some photos of him driving a supercar out for fun today, and sunbathing at the beach with his girlfriend.
As soon as this matter was exposed, it immediately caused heated discussions among fans and the media.
"What's going on? Didn't they say Balotelli needed a rest? Looking at him like this, how could he need a rest?"
"It seems that there is a deep story here! Balotelli obviously had a conflict with Sun!"
"Big news. Nice's core Balotelli had a conflict with the head coach. According to insiders, Balotelli was suspended this time. It is said that the trigger was the red card in the Europa League."
"Big news! Balotelli intends to leave Nice!!"
"..."
After Balotelli posted those things on Twitter, a lot of rumors soon spread outside. Some of them were vivid, as if they were true.
"I copied it! This idiot!" The next day, Sun Yi was so angry that he almost choked on water when he heard the news.
Originally, Sun Yi suspended Balotelli for one game, which was just a minor punishment, just as a day off for him. I didn't expect this guy to do this. This is simply adding fuel to the fire.
As soon as he entered the team base in the morning, Sun Yi learned that many media had called to inquire about the matter. In response, Sun Yi asked the team to answer with "no comment".
What made Sun Yi even more angry was that Balotelli was late for today's training, almost late.
At that time, Sun Yi was calling people to gather, and Balotelli walked slowly with a look of not getting enough sleep. When he met Sun Yi's eyes, he turned his head away in a bit of displeasure.
After Balotelli entered the players, Sun Yi also heard him teasing others: "I heard that we were tied yesterday. Without me. It seems that you can't do it!"
Oh my. This is clearly a provocation! It seems that this guy is really arrogant!
Sun Yi was unhappy, but after all, Balotelli was not really late, so he couldn't be punished for this.
As for the Twitter incident, this guy didn't say anything. And it was Sun Yi who didn't let him enter the big list, so he couldn't say anything.
Although this matter is a bit annoying for the time being, as long as you ignore it, I believe it will soon be calm.
Sun Yi suppressed his dissatisfaction and didn't intend to pursue it further.
But he didn't intend to pursue it, but Balotelli seemed to be going to have a fight with him. Not only did he keep giving him a bad face during training, but he was also a little bit less active during training.
This is an attitude problem.
Damn it! If you have this attitude, then go to the bench.
This kind of attitude is only suitable for sitting on the bench!
So, in the next French Ligue 1 game, Balotelli sat on the bench. Although he was included in the big list by Sun Yi, he was always pressed on the bench.
In the end, in this away game against Caen, Nice played a 0:0 draw again. The reason is that the whole team's state is not good enough, and Dong Fangzhuo still lacks the ability to finish the final blow.
However, even so, in the game, even if the offense has been inefficient, Sun Yi would rather arrange marginal players to go up than let Balotelli go up for a minute.
As soon as this situation came out, the outside world immediately confirmed that there was a big problem between him and Balotelli. Many people began to support Balotelli. They felt that Nice needed Balotelli's spearhead.
Even Dio advised him not to get angry with Balotelli, so as not to give away the team's top position.
However, after seeing Balotelli's attitude in training, Sun Yi still did not care. In addition to the next Europa League match, in which he was originally banned, he also put Balotelli in the squad but did not send him to play in another match of the 13th round of Ligue 1.
That Europa League match was the second round against Red Bull Salzburg. In this match, without the pressure of the task, Sun Yi directly used the defensive counterattack tactics. And he also let some main players take turns to rest.
In the end, this Europa League match also ended in a draw. However, it was no longer 0:0, but 1:1. Pléa's state has improved. After being violated in the penalty area and getting a penalty kick, he took the shot and hit it.
In the next match of the 13th round of Ligue 1, Nice defeated Saint-Etienne away. Salah, who was also starting to warm up, scored the winning goal in the counterattack.
Thanks to the victory of this game, Nice was able to continue to maintain its top position. However, it only had two more points than the second-placed Paris Saint-Germain. Nice's advantage is obviously much less.
