Extraordinary coach

Dong Fangzhuo, who knows the inside story, felt it was incredible that the coaching staff was allowed to direct the game for two consecutive games.

He knew that Sun Yi had no throat problems at all, and naturally knew that Sun Yi had always been the boss in the Nice team.

Dong Fangzhuo was puzzled by the fact that he was allowed to direct the game against Guingamp. He couldn't help wondering if Sun Yi was stupid when he dared to delegate power in the next French League Cup quarterfinals.

The French League Cup quarterfinals were won, but Dong Fangzhuo couldn't help asking Sun Yi why he did this.

And Sun Yi's answer was also very simple.

"Although I am the head coach, it is the entire coaching team that coaches a team. I need this team to get better. If one day I am sent to the stands like Mourinho, won't I need you to direct the game?"

"If you can't understand, you will understand after a while."

Dong Fangzhuo really couldn't understand. In his opinion, he was fine and not suspended, so why should he let his assistant come?

Did he think he would be sent to the stands after a while?

Dong Fangzhuo still felt that this approach was inexplicable. But with Sun Yi's words, he did keep an eye on other members of the coaching staff in the days that followed.

And he really found something different.

He felt that the entire coaching staff had become more harmonious. People like Robert and others, although they didn't dare to challenge Sun Yi's authority before, always gave people a feeling of estrangement. But after these two games, Dong Fangzhuo felt that this estrangement had disappeared.

In the past, they would only call Sun Yi "Coach Sun", but now it has become "Boss".

The biggest change in the coaching staff is Dio. The oldest in the coaching staff, he looks more confident than before. He is becoming more decisive at work. And it can be clearly seen that he is working harder when assisting Sun Yi.

Although Dio did not call Sun Yi "Boss" like Robert and others, he showed Dong Fangzhuo something called "one of our own" in his gestures.

After discovering these situations, Dong Fangzhuo also understood Sun Yi's approach.

With the end of the French League Cup, the Nice coaching staff is becoming more in tune. Therefore, there was no disturbance inside.

But there was still a commotion outside.

"Two games in a row. This can definitely confirm that Sun was deprived of power. Although assistant Dio hugged Sun after the game, the smile on Sun's face was obviously far-fetched."

"I didn't expect that the good Nice team would have internal strife. This will undoubtedly have a significant impact on their current good situation."

"Nice is likely to be finished. They have such problems inside, which is definitely a good opportunity for Paris Saint-Germain to top the list..."

There are more and more speculations about the Nice coaching staff, and they are all well-organized.

This scared the fans of Nice. Especially Richard and other members of Sun Yi's support club, they all took action to support Sun Yi.

"Give the command back to Sun."

"Sun is the head coach! Management is not allowed to interfere with his command!"

"Sun is the only coach qualified to command the Nice team. We only recognize him!"

"We have only one head coach for the Nice team, and that's Sun!"

Fans not only supported Sun Yi on the Nice team's official website, but also many people went outside the base to hold banners to protest the team's deprivation of his command.

Sun Yi was somewhat amused and helpless. He didn't expect that his simple idea of ​​training a team so that he wouldn't have to do everything himself would cause so many misunderstandings.

He could ignore the media's speculation. But he couldn't ignore his own fans. So he found an opportunity to publicly state that the speculation from the outside world was groundless. Let the fans rest assured. He is still the head coach with command power.

Although Sun Yi's words dispelled the concerns of some fans, some fans were not reassured.

Richard, the number one fan, actually thought that Sun Yi's words were probably forced by the team's top management. He also left a message on Sun Yi's Twitter: If you are really being framed, wink at the camera at the next press conference.

When Sun Yi saw this message, he really laughed, but was also a little touched.

In the next pre-match press conference, Sun Yi took the initiative to mention this matter. He pointed to his eyes with a smile and said: "Look, I didn't blink, what I said is true. Now, fans, you can rest assured."

"Also, thank you!"

With Sun Yi's words this time, Richard and others finally felt relieved temporarily.

However, the blinking incident was mentioned as an interesting story of Sun Yi for a long time afterwards. Even Baidu Encyclopedia and Wikipedia wrote this incident in his personal profile.

The fans' support was temporarily calmed down, and soon afterwards, Sun Yi led the Nice team to the Lorient Road Stadium to challenge the Rennes team.

In the away locker room, after a pre-match mobilization, Sun Yi asked the players to prepare to play. He smiled and said to Dio: "Today~"

"NO! No, no. You have to do it yourself today no matter what. Sun, don't hurt me today. Otherwise, the fans will kill me." Dio waved his hands repeatedly without waiting for Sun Yi to finish his words.

"..." Seeing Dio like this, Sun Yi laughed: "Hey, it seems that I can't be lazy today."

"You are the head coach, don't think about being lazy."

"Haha. I think you should move more. I mean well." Sun Yi laughed and left the locker room with Dio.

"You know I'm old? Aren't you afraid of wearing out my old bones?"

"No, I think you're strong enough to sign up as a player. Otherwise, I'll take advantage of this transfer window to sign you up?"

"Okay! If you dare to sign me up, I'll dare to play..."

"Uh~"

"Haha..."

The two of them talked and laughed all the way to the bench. This made the Nice fans who saw it confident in Sun Yi's words. When the game started, everyone was completely relieved when they saw that it was Sun Yi who came to the sidelines to command.

The opponent of this game, Rennes, is not weak. However, Sun Yi had already used the system's battle simulation to find the tactical countermeasures with the highest winning rate.

Therefore, Sun Yi only needed to follow the plan made before the game. There was no need to shout and command in the technical area. In the end, Nice also defeated Rennes 2:1.

It was reasonable for Nice to win over Rennes in this match. It did not cause any disturbance. Instead, through this match, Sun Yi completely calmed down the speculations from the outside world.
