If Chang Sheng had said and done this before the game against Real Madrid, many Valencia players would have disagreed.
But it's different now. It was all thanks to that 5:0 game, and many players didn't dare to question him.
Gradually ignoring the age of this young head coach, he began to accept the authority of the coach displayed by his winning streak.
Guardiola continued to be his part-time coach, calling timeouts during training and then correcting his teammates' movements.
Playing two roles should make him tired, but this is not seen at all in the 30-year-old Guardiola.
He is full of energy, dedicated to his work, and the drive radiating from his body has even infected the team.
The team's training is more serious than before.
He seemed to enjoy such days.
Sometimes, when he stops, he will also think back to his original decision. When he transferred to Valencia, he was still uneasy at first, but now...he has no longer considered whether his transfer was correct.
I only know that I have rediscovered the goal and joy of struggle in Valencia.
This is completely different from his last few years at Barcelona.
In Barcelona, his role is getting smaller and smaller, and he has lost the value of his continued existence.
Only in Valencia did he rediscover his own value.
There is a saying in China that "a scholar will die for his confidant." Guardiola must have never heard of this sentence, but this does not mean that he will not have similar feelings.
Winning has given him enough trust. This trust is not reflected on the court, but in training. Let him participate in formulating the team's tactics and training plans, giving him the greatest freedom. Let him defend according to his own rules.
He tries to train the team, and when encountering difficulties, Chang Sheng will immediately stand up to support him and let him put aside all his burdens and worries.
Now when the coaching staff meets, Guardiola can attend the meeting and put forward his own opinions, which has gained the attention of coaches such as Chang Sheng and Rudy Gonzalez.
This makes Guardiola feel particularly accomplished.
To be honest, when he decided to leave Barcelona, before Valencia appeared, he had already planned to negotiate with Brescia. At that time, he knew that his playing career would no longer be glorious, so on the court he
pursuits become few and far between.
On the contrary, what happened on the training ground made him excited and excited, and he was full of expectations for the future.
Chang Sheng did what he said. Let him work part-time as a coach.
In order to repay Chang Sheng's trust in him, Guardiola decided to be more serious and work hard in training, and he would not let Chang Sheng down.
If Chang Sheng knew what Guardiola was thinking, he would probably wake up laughing in his dreams at night - this is even better than he originally imagined!

During this intense and high-intensity training, the team ushered in its third opponent in the league. On September 16, Valencia faced Las Palmas at home.
A lot of fans came to this game.
They all still remember how Valencia beat Real Madrid in the last home game.
This game completely ignited the enthusiasm of Valencia fans to come to watch the game.
The Mestalla stadium, which can accommodate 55,000 people, had an attendance rate of 85%.
For this game, which is not a focus battle, this attendance rate is already very good.
After all, not every game is a strong dialogue like Valencia and Real Madrid.
Before the game started, Chang Sheng was in the locker room, looking at the players who were ready, and then he opened the door to the locker room.
The noise outside rushed in instantly, hitting everyone's eardrums like a tsunami.
Amidst the noise, Chang Sheng shouted at the top of his lungs: "Listen to this sound, guys! They are all here to support you! If you only win 2:0 in the end, are you fucking embarrassed?!"
Then the players came out.

Most Spanish teams insist on attacking football.
Even those teams that are relegated are the same. This is related to the tradition of Spain.
After all, defensive counterattack teams like Getafe, Mallorca and Valencia are in the minority.
Therefore, even if it is an away game, although the strength is not as good as Valencia, Las Palmas still insists on attacking Valencia.
In terms of attack, this is the favorite opponent of Valencia's current "mad dog" tactics.
Because the scene will be very open, there will be many opportunities.
They don't even have to run to create chances.
So this game was played beautifully.
The Valencia fans who came to watch the game were all hooked - starting from Perez, and through the training of Hiddink, Ranieri and Cooper. Valencia fans have become accustomed to Valencia's defensive counterattack.
They can win the game, but they score very few goals and the scenes are not very pretty.
But this Valencia team is different now.
It can be seen from the first round against Real Madrid that they can not only win, but also win beautifully!
This game is no exception.
Their team's coordinated football moves and passes made many Valencia fans shine.
Moreover, Valencia, who has been trained by Guardiola for two weeks, is more fluid and precise in passing and running.
Thirteen minutes into the game, Valencia produced a dazzling combination.
After the football attacks from the backcourt, it passes continuously. Guardiola is the core of this attack. He keeps running, receiving the ball and supporting, and then passing the football out.
After more than a dozen passes in a row, the Las Palmas players didn't even touch the ball, and the football hit their goal. Then Ibrahimovic, who received the ball, scored a goal with no difficulty at this time.
After saying that, he knocked lightly, and the football rolled into Las Palmas' goal...
"Beautiful! Beautiful! Very beautiful! Valencia has taken the lead! But the lead is not the point! The point is this goal! It was scored very beautifully! Starting from the goalkeeper, almost everyone participated in this attack! Bang Bang Bang
Bang! The continuous passing was dazzling and pleasing to the eye. In front of them, Las Palmas was like a group of headless flies. They could only run around but couldn't touch the football at all! In the end, they almost
The football was passed into the goal! I dare say that Ibrahimovic's goal could have been scored if I were on the court! It was so simple! The previous series of complex passes, cuts and movements,
Just to make the final shot simple... It's amazing! We have never seen this kind of Valencia. It is a brand new Valencia brought to us by the Chinese... Valencia
The fans are blessed, not only can they see the victory, but they can also see such a wonderful goal!" Commentator Moen talked at length and kept talking. This is the characteristic of Spanish commentators. They are always very chatty...
※※※
Chang Sheng hugged the coaches on the sidelines and cheered in celebration.
This goal score fully demonstrates the results of their work in the past two weeks.
Getting goals like this is what Chang Sheng hoped to see when he originally designed the "Mad Dog" tactic.
The Valencia fans cheered loudly again in the Mestalla Stadium stands.
Hearing the cheers, Chang Sheng knew that his choice was right!
※※※
On the court, Guardiola is calling on everyone to celebrate the goal.
"This is a team victory!" He hugged everyone and said, "Let's celebrate together, together!"
Although he does not wear the captain's armband, he has been the captain of a wealthy club like Barcelona for a long time, so he naturally has a leadership temperament.
The teammates rushed up and hugged each other, with Ibrahimovic in the middle.
This Swedish boy has been very happy recently. He joined the big team in Valencia and scored goals and assists in his first league game and performed well. He also performed well in the national team competition.
Now he scored again in the third round of the league, and the number of goals in the league has become two.
His career is simply sunny and dazzling!
He now feels that he gave up going to Ajax and chose to come to Valencia as the most important and correct decision in his life!
※※※
The players who had finished celebrating returned to their own half one after another. Many of them saw Chang Sheng dancing and shouting on the sidelines: "Keep scoring! Keep scoring! Kill it all!!"
So Valencia did not stop, but launched an offensive frenzy.
One goal each was scored in the 37th and 45th minutes respectively.
A 3:0 lead was achieved in the first half.
Commentator Moen had to lament that the suspense of this game no longer existed.
Valencia completely destroyed Las Palmas with a devastating attack.
This made Las Palmas, who had played against Chang Sheng in the second division, very confused.
Why does a coach have so different coaching styles? In Getafe, he insisted on defensive counterattacks and 1:0 doctrine. When he arrived in Valencia, how did he become a representative of offensive football?
This is unscientific!
※※※
Returning to the winning streak at halftime, I am very satisfied with the performance of the players.
Tell them that they must play like this in future games and never show mercy.
Because to be kind to your enemy is to be cruel to yourself.
If you can't completely break the suspense in the first half, then your opponent will have the ability and thoughts to counterattack at any time in the second half.
"If the opponent still has hope, then use our goals to kill their hope and bring them despair! Continue in the second half!"
※※※
After the start of the second half, Valencia's offensive continued unabated, and their passing and cutting coordination was still confusing and confusing.
Las Palmas had no choice in the face of this tactic.
In the second half, the winning team began to make constant substitutions, allowing more Valencia players to experience the "mad dog" tactics in actual combat.
It can also be regarded as allowing more people to gain experience.
Villa replaced Ibrahimovic, Pellegrino replaced Carvalho, and Reyes replaced Vicente.
Due to frequent substitutions, it was somewhat difficult for the team to execute the "mad dog" tactics, which affected the final offensive quality.
But there was still a goal.
In the end, Valencia defeated Las Palmas 4:0 in this game and once again achieved a big victory.
