Chapter 14 Conversation with Mourinho
The most important thing is.
Chinese football has fallen into unprecedented darkness.
In the 8th round of Group A of the Asian qualifiers for the World Cup in June, the Chinese national football team visited Malacca to face the "home team" Syria.
Although Syria scored a goal at the beginning of the game, the Chinese team scored two goals in the second half to overtake the score and maintained the advantage until the end of regular time.
But then, in the third minute of injury time, Hao Junmin committed a defensive foul in front of the penalty area, giving Syria a free kick in an excellent position.
Saleh takes the free kick.
When the football ball passed through the wall and went straight into the blind corner of the goal, all the efforts of the Chinese team for the entire 90 minutes were in vain.
The whole audience fell silent.
Countless fans experienced the three black minutes, and their hearts, which were filled with immense love, were suddenly riddled with holes.
The Chinese national football team's difficulty in qualifying is once again being faced.
First, the Chinese team needs to win the last two rounds and end the top 12 with 12 points.
Second, Uzbekistan lost both of the last two rounds and ended the top 12 with 12 points and a lower goal difference than the Chinese team.
Third, Syria failed to win in the last two rounds, or won one and lost one, and ended the top 12 with 12 points, but the goal difference was lower than that of the Chinese team.
What is the probability of satisfying all the above conditions simultaneously?
Only 0.02% of Blazevic ever said a word.
"Football should take on the mission of restoring national pride."
But the brilliant fireworks that Chinese fans dreamed of were quickly extinguished before they even took off.
so.
Chinese fans are like drowning people, hoping for a life-saving straw to keep their last hope.

Lin Liangming of Real Madrid B team Castilla.
And Chu Feng, who had just been promoted to Manchester United's first team.
Countless Chinese fans are looking forward to their success, not only to prove to the outside world that Chinese people can play good football, but also to set an example for the country and attract more young people to join.
Weibo, Hupu, and Tieba.
On mainstream social platforms, heated discussions have been launched. - [Are you trying to lie to me again? ] - [Wolfsburg in front, Manchester United in the back, they are all introducing sales-oriented strikers. ] - [Can you give the most basic respect? ] - [The Chinese national football team is not worthy! ] - [Why can't we find 11 people who can play football among more than one billion people? ] - [When you stop asking this question, it means that Chinese football has improved. ] - [I feel that you are not fans, you are just here to join in the fun. ] - [Indeed, there are all kinds of radical fans, but it is rare to see people like you who only focus on shortcomings and completely deny themselves. ] - [Being bad at competitive sports is the original sin, I have the right to like strong teams. If the Chinese national football team plays against South Korea, I will support South Korea and I will wear South Korean jerseys, how about that? ] - [Look at what you said, you think this is just a dispute in the field of sports. But in my opinion, when football is played between national teams, it is already a competition between two countries and nations in a certain form, representing the dignity of the country and nation. 】 - 【If it were a few decades ago, you would be a traitor, groveling and saying, "Madam, good luck, this way."】 - 【You are just a clown who seeks to attract attention. You think you are different from others, but in fact you are inferior from the bottom of your heart. 】 - 【Come on, Chu Feng, play well and slap these traitors in the face! 】 - 【With the current situation of Manchester United, the probability of Chu Feng playing is very small, and he may even sit on the bench for the whole season. 】 - 【 It doesn't matter. Anyway, I am waiting for Chu Feng to play in every game. Even if it is only for one minute, I will be very happy. 】 - 【Chu Feng may even win two championships. 】
The discussion about Chinese football has been a hot topic on the Internet, with different people expressing their opinions.
Although most views are pessimistic.
But there is still a small group of fans who have not given up hope.
Under the impact of countless public opinions, the news of Chu Feng's promotion to the first team was dispersed and did not continue to attract much attention.
Carrington training base.
Head coach's office.
"Coach, I heard from Mr. Faria that you were looking for me?"
Chu Feng calmed his rapid breathing, raised his hand and knocked on the door.
"Well, come in. The new season starts tomorrow, and you've been training with the first team for a few days. What do you think?"
Mourinho nodded.
Chu Feng walked to the bench and sat down. After thinking for a moment, he told his training summary in full.
“Every time I break through, I feel like I’m dragging my feet. I need to improve my short-distance burst speed, especially in the first five meters.”
"There is also the ability to control the ball and fight during high-speed dribbling, as well as the ability to pass the ball."
After hearing Chu Feng's answer, Mourinho's mouth corners slightly raised, "Yes, you have a clear understanding of yourself."
Compared to players like Pogba who act like they are too proud just because they have a little talent, the humble and hardworking Chu Feng is more to his liking.
But he quickly put on a stern face again and reminded in a deep voice.
"As for too much training without the ball, I don't think it's necessary."
“Great pianists never run around the piano or do push-ups next to it; they just keep practicing on the keys.”
There is no mistake in the poem, post, content, and read the book on 6, 9, and bar!
"In the next two training cycles, you need to focus on strengthening team awareness and ball possession training."
"Let me explain it to you in detail."
“.”
The most important part of Mourinho's training philosophy is periodization.
This concept originated from his mentor Vitor and is a management method for football training created by combining cybernetics, anthropology and psychology.
The specific content is very complicated. Chu Feng kept Mourinho's words firmly in his heart, with a feeling of being unsatisfied.
After all, receiving one-on-one guidance from a top coach is a luxury.
Before I knew it, an hour had passed.
Before leaving, Mourinho reminded him earnestly: "Chu, I have no doubt about your potential. But you have to remember that for professional players, not making progress means regressing, and the only way to prevent regression is hard training."
"During this process, you will face many temptations, such as food, indulgence, alcohol, laziness, etc."
“I hope you won’t get too addicted to it, because one day, when you can’t achieve what you should have, it will be too late to regret it.”
"Believe me, you have to set higher standards for yourself!"
Mourinho has seen many talented players, most of whom fell before they could rise.
According to his personality and habits, he won't talk too much to the players.
But when he saw Chu Feng's performance in training and life, he couldn't help but remind him.
But that's all he could say. We are all adults and need to be responsible for our own actions.
The breeze from the window blew up the black hair on the boy's forehead.
Chu Feng smiled brilliantly, exuding the youthful vigor that only belongs to young people.
"Boss, don't worry, I set high standards for myself!"
