Li Shiguang's words were like a thunderbolt, instantly shattering the calm atmosphere of the press conference and causing an uproar.
After a brief moment of surprise, the reporters at the scene all raised their hands to ask questions.
The reporter who had just asked the question looked skeptical and asked again: "That's impossible, Mr. Manager. This joke is not funny at all. There has never been a precedent of a club owner also serving as the team's head coach. Moreover, I seriously doubt whether you hold a professional license issued by the FA."
Upon hearing the reporter's question, Li Shiguang couldn't help but marvel at the system's power.
The FA license is a license issued by the Football Association to coaches. Only those who hold this license are officially qualified to become the manager of Leeds United.
When Li Shiguang drew the Master Coach skill, the system automatically completed the relevant procedures for him, and he saw his certificate in his email that afternoon.
Li Shiguang replied with certainty, "Of course I have it. You can check my certificate on the FA's official website right now."
As soon as he finished speaking, all the reporters present frantically pulled out their phones, wanting to immediately verify the truth of Li Shiguang's words.
Seeing this, Li Shiguang was not in a hurry. He sat down again and watched the reporters' actions with a smile.
About 30 seconds later, the reporters looked up one after another, staring at Li Shiguang with the eyes of someone looking at a monster.
They were all pondering the same question.
A club owner went and took the FA coaching exam, and even got the highest level certificate.
This doesn't make sense!
...
At 8:30 a.m. on Wednesday, Sneijder appeared at the entrance of the training base with his small bag on his back.
After training yesterday, the owner's assistant, Allen, came to the locker room to inform everyone that today's training session would be led by Leeds United's new manager.
Sneijder has been with Leeds United for over three months, and he hadn't had a chance to play under Blackwell's tactical system before.
So after learning that the new head coach would be arriving at the team today, Sneijder arrived at the training base early. In any case, he had to make a good impression on the new coach, and maybe he could get a chance to play in Sunday's game.
But when he opened the locker room door, he found he wasn't the only one with this thought, because there were already three people sitting there. One was Chiellini, who had transferred there during the summer transfer window, just like him. He didn't recognize the other two; they were probably new signings for Leeds United.
Upon seeing Sneijder enter, the three who had been chatting paused their conversation.
The bald man sitting to the left of his wardrobe smiled at Sneijder and greeted him, "Good morning, I'm Vincent Kompany, nice to meet you."
As Sneijder walked to his seat, he replied, "Hello, I'm Wesley Sneijder, welcome to Leeds United."
Seeing Sneijder sit down, Chiellini asked, "Hey, Wesley, have you found out who our new coach is?"
Sneijder shook his head: "You'll have to ask these two new guys; they might know the answer..."
Before Sneijder could finish speaking, Schmeichel, who was sitting next to Chiellini, interrupted him: "We don't know either. I met our boss once in Manchester before, and he didn't tell me who our new coach would be."
Just as the four young men were still speculating about who would be Leeds United's new manager, the locker room door opened again.
Li Shiguang walked in dressed in sportswear, wearing a white baseball cap, holding a splint, and with a whistle hanging around his neck.
Chiellini and Sneijder were quite familiar with the club owner, who wasn't much older than them, but in their memory, the owner always seemed to be dressed in a suit and tie.
Looking at Li Shiguang's current attire, a bizarre answer slowly surfaced in their minds, and they both whispered in unison, "No way..."
...................
Three hours later.
The morning training session was nearing its end, and the players were heading towards the locker room.
After completing basic training.
Li Shiguang divided the players into A and B groups for scrimmage training.
Unlike Blackwell, who always employed a defensive counter-attacking tactic.
He led the players to try several different formations and tactics.
Furthermore, Sneijder, Adebayor, Tevez, and Chiellini, who had joined Leeds United before the start of the season, were all placed in Group A.
It's worth noting that in Blackwell's tactical system, apart from Adebayor and Tevez getting opportunities to come on as substitutes, the other two spent three whole months on the bench.
Therefore, after training, the players' mentality underwent a significant change.
From initial shock and surprise when Li Shiguang told him in the locker room that he would become the manager of Leeds United, to now being completely convinced.
Because Li Shiguang tried a variety of different formations and tactics in training today, it gave them a chance to start in Sunday's game.
Furthermore, in the players' eyes, Li Shiguang's professionalism today surpassed that of Blackwell. Especially in terms of tactics and techniques, he could even be called a master!
After the players left the training field, Li Shiguang walked to the side of the field, sat down, and activated the system. He wanted to see what kind of effect the Master Coach skill could produce.
