One day after the game against Roma, Parma announced the coaching change.
Parma replaced a Chinese coach - after the news spread, the whole of Italy was immediately shocked.
It is not surprising that Parma may need to change coaches. They only scored 12 points in 16 rounds. In any case, such a coach must consider dismissing the get out of class. The only surprising thing is that he has been here until this point. It was just after class at that time, and Barardi's temper was surprisingly good.
However, it is not surprising to change the coach, but it is surprising to change the coach to a Chinese. The coach of the Serie A team is appointed by a Chinese, and it is such a young Chinese. This is surprising.
The Italian media were all deeply dissatisfied.
Li Bin used to be the director of scouting and director of youth training at Parma. These positions will not arouse the resentment of these people: these positions are originally held by many foreigners. After all, if Italy needs to buy players from abroad, it needs foreign contacts. Naturally,
To give foreigners some rights, although Li Bin has never introduced players from China, there is a precedent, so people will not object. If foreigners take care of the team's internal affairs, the Italians will not object.
But being a head coach is another story.
"How poor must Parma be to do such a thing? If there is really no one left, wouldn't Luca Barardi become the head coach himself? Could it be that after the trusteeship, they are so poor?
Are you going to follow in the footsteps of Florence?"
Although Li Bin's popularity is pretty good and he has not caused any personal attack articles, he has also been questioned by many people.
Such doubts have also been discussed by many people on Italian football TV programs. After all, young foreign head coaches are extremely concerning in Serie A.
"Parma asked Li Bin to take over the team, which also made Li Bin the third foreign coach to take office in Serie A this season. This season, except for Lecce, who was coached by Zeman at the beginning of the season, Roma was coached by Prandelli after Prandelli resigned.
, after the short-term use of Voller, he is the third one. However, Lecce under the leadership of Zeman has played mediocrely this season, and Voller has not yet sat up in Rome.
He gave up his position to Conte, and now, as a foreigner, how can he achieve any good results in Italy? And, the most important thing is, I have never seen an Asian coach coaching in Europe, I have not even seen one
What kind of decent Asian coach is this coach? What is his tactical thinking like? I don’t know how Asians view football."
Soon, the first TV program that directly questioned Li Bin appeared, and this program was "Those who engage in football...".
In Italy, there are many different types of football TV programs, including the long-established "90th Minute", which focuses on commentating on games, and "On Camera", which likes to talk to celebrities and discuss football. Of course, there are also
He writes TV programs such as "Those Who Play Football...", which are mainly ridiculing.
This TV program has high ratings, and its host is Ventura, the ex-wife of former Italian international player Bertarini. In Italy, there is a custom of letting beautiful women host news programs. Totti’s wife Brasi, Buffon
Girlfriend Seredova, Piero's wife Sonny Motion, Vie
Canalis, his longest-term girlfriend in Italy, is working as a football anchor. Because Italian football reporters need to pass exams, their professional standards are also quite good. Ventura has been doing this job for many years and has professional abilities.
He is also very strong, but she is not very optimistic about Li Bin.
It is too difficult for foreigners to succeed in Italy.
This time, the guest on her show was Sacchi, a veteran Italian coach who once served as the head coach and technical director of Parma.
Ventura's question left Sacchi a little confused as to how to answer. He still had contact with Parma and had met Li Bin, but he was really unwilling to talk about foreigners on the TV.
Good words.
He could hear the strong Italian pride in Ventura's words. Italy is a place that nourishes tacticians, and many football people here look down on foreigners. He knew that as an Italian citizen, he would definitely like to hear this.
Even though he has different opinions, he doesn't want to be accused of being unpatriotic.
"I have had contact with Li. After all, he studied football in Italy. His philosophy is very close to Italians. Although he is young, we cannot treat him as a simple Asian. It is better to treat him as an Italian coach.
Perhaps, it can be said that he may be the best coach in China..."
Saki chose some words.
"It's like saying, the one with the highest score among a group of failed kids, what's the point? No offense, I like Chinese things very much, they are very cheap, but, Chinese coaches? Football is not something that can be messed with.
"Backward areas are backward areas. How can an outstanding coach from a backward area be compared with Italian coaches? What's more, he is still so young."
Ventura immediately spoke again, and her words this time were obviously quite harsh.
And her disrespectful attitude towards Sacchi's words also made Sacchi a little unhappy, "I think it is stupid to define all others as bad in such a simple way. Italy is indeed a good coach.
Cradle, but at any time, we cannot ignore that there are exceptions in this world."
"Maybe that's the case, but until he can gain the recognition of the whole of Italy, such doubts will not stop." Ventura saw Sacchi's dissatisfaction and quickly changed the topic.
"Let's see what the head coaches of other teams think of Li Bin as Parma's coach."
On the TV, interviews with the head coaches of other Serie A teams were then played.
"Parma changed coaches? It makes no difference to Juventus. We will beat them in the next round. I don't care who the coach of Parma is. I don't care what the future of Parma is. I only care about Juventus."
,Don’t ask me about other things.”
Juventus head coach Capello's attitude is obviously quite indifferent. Such a rigid attitude of not having any personal feelings and being indifferent to everything, only focusing on himself and the professionalism of the team, is very consistent with Capello.
A consistent habit.
"Has Parma changed its head coach? Parma is one of the iconic teams in Serie A and has competed for many honors for Serie A. They are a very important part of Serie A and have many fans. I hope they can successfully avoid relegation.
Asian head coaches? Asian football is not developing slowly, and they may also have relatively good coaches. Italy needs this new attempt."
The answer of Inter Milan head coach Mancini seems very official. And this is also the answer of most Italian head coaches. And Mancini is also the one who speaks the most beautifully. Just like his coaching, he is all-round and well-versed.
Not guilty.
"Parma has changed its coach? This is really not good. I am from Parma. Li Bin has been replaced as the coach. I know him and I have also heard about it. I think this is still good. After all,
, he is only 30 years old, and he alone has lowered the average age of head coaches in the league. Thinking that there are still such young people among people like me, I feel a lot younger!"
Is Ancelotti...acting cute again?
Sitting in front of the TV, watching these guys, Li Bin was analyzing the reactions of these guys. Capello was stubborn but unabashed, Mancini was smooth but also leak-proof. As for Ancelotti,
Although he looks harmless and has the virtue of "I am a fat man and have no scheming", when it comes to preparing information, he may be the most thorough: Li Bin can say it without saying anything else.
age, this is no accident.
These guys are not fuel efficient.
"I think you have all seen their evaluation of me. Now you all know that the outside world is full of criticism of you, but it is also not very supportive of me. We are all the same, we all need
People who prove themselves, from this point of view, we are no different."
Sitting opposite Li Bin were Frey, Bonera, Cannavaro Jr., Chiellini and other defensive line players from the team. The first thing Li Bin did when he took over the team was to find them.
, wants to change the team's defense.
A team cannot survive without its back line. The first thing Li Bin has to do is to organize the team's back line.
"Li, it's because we didn't do our job well." Bonera spoke on behalf of the team's teammates, "But this also has something to do with Coach Baldini's command..."
Li Bin didn't say anything and nodded repeatedly. He could see that Bonera just wanted to shirk responsibility and gave all the questions to Baldini. However, he did not refute. After all, what the team needs now is confidence and put everything into practice.
Putting the blame on Baldini and not letting them bear too much pressure is the first step to relieve the pressure for them.
Players are under a lot of pressure, whether it comes from fans or the outside world. In the final analysis, it is their own psychological pressure. Psychological pressure can be relieved by psychological suggestions. They have this idea, and Li Bin is now facing Bonnet.
The affirmation of La's words also gives them an affirmation and increases their psychological implications, which is helpful in shaping their confidence.
As for the wronged Baldini - Li Bin said sorry in his heart and that was it.
"I also know that Baldini's tactics have big problems." Li Bin said, "So, in the next game, we will change our tactics. In the next game, we will play three defenders."
This sentence surprised everyone.
The second step to build confidence is to let the players find a spiritual sustenance. Baldini's four-back system has been suppressed for half a season and it is over. Italian players have a deep-rooted idea of relying on the system for defense.
It is easy to reverse, so Li Bin simply destroyed this system and gave them a new system so that they could have new sustenance.
Sports psychology is a science that involves many aspects, and building confidence is one of them. By using motivation methods, players can probably be in high spirits in a short period of time, and they can speak before and during the game.
The results are very good, but in three days, if you want them to develop confidence in their hearts, you must give them something they can trust.
Three days is certainly not enough to perfect the tactics. But three days is enough for the players to clear away the haze in their minds.
After that, it depends on them whether they can see the dawn of victory.
