The Greatest Performer on the Football Field

Super substitute Solskjaer is about to retire

There's nothing weird about the front page headlines in the newspapers, but Sun Woo's eyes land on the subhead.

Solskjaer admits it is possible to follow in Roy Keane's footsteps

Well, Roy Keane, the greatest captain in the history of the Red Devils, retired last summer, and immediately took over Sunderland, bringing the second-to-last team in the league to the Premier League. Just a few days ago, he also He was named the Head Coach of the Year in the Championship by the League Coaches Committee.

The newspaper very interestingly listed the fact that Roy Keane does not actually have a UEFA Pro certificate, which means he is not qualified to coach top European competitions, so this summer, Robbie Keane must obtain a UEFA Pro certificate...

And Solskjaer wants to follow in the footsteps of Roy Keane, so he must plan ahead...

Indeed! Sun Wu complained, what place has more complete information than the coach training course organized by the Football Association!

After setting the goal, Sun Wu has strong execution ability. Half an hour later, he found the address of the FA course center in Lancashire: Preston Club.

...

Two weekends, a total of four days of courses, and the last day of the exam, please pay 112 pounds. The staff is very polite. Although the applicants in front of them are very young, there are precedents. Many young people who cannot continue their careers will choose to do it. A coach, after all, is just taking the Level 1 exam, so it's not too difficult.

Although Preston is now sinking in League One, his qualifications are very old. He is also the first league champion and the first team double champion of England's top league.

Sitting in the conference room in Preston the next day, Sun Wu was a little confused. On the left and right were middle-aged fat people with fat and deformed bodies. Is this really a regular football coaching course?

Hey, boy, what are you doing here? A middle-aged man with a barely normal figure came over and handed over a lot of documents, It's really rare for people from the East to take the coaching license test.

Sun Wu lowered his head and opened the information, the corner of his mouth twitched, what the hell are these things!

There is no tactical information, but first aid, athlete psychology, and the setting principles of the content and form of training sessions...

112 pounds... In 2007, it should be almost 2,000 yuan. It's really feeding the dog, and the FA also has a revenue-generating task!

When the licensed coach of the Football Association above started to teach, the painting style completely made Sun Wu unable to understand.

Well done!

Good job!

Fantastic!

Even if you make a mistake, you have to tell your child that you did a great job, but it would be even better if you did that!

You know, encouragement is far more effective than harshness.

Sun Wu, who emptied his head and was about to stuff in countless tactical materials, sat down dumbfounded, but the others listened with gusto.

Yes, I keep telling my son that his talent is no worse than Gascoigne! a middle-aged fat man shouted.

The teacher on the stage shrugged, Then, you should put away all the wine at home, otherwise the country will suffer heavy losses.

Standing on the training ground in Preston the next week, Sun Wu finally understood that the so-called Level 1 exam was aimed at getting children started with football.

The training field is full of children under the age of ten, and the parents are shouting loudly to cheer for their son. Each candidate needs to set up a 15-minute training session for the children. The examiner will stand on the side of the field to watch the entire training session and give Opinion.

The name Best is quite well-known in Lancashire. After all, he is of Chinese origin. The candidates and examiners who participated in the training course did not find out, but the parents of the children on the sidelines accidentally discovered this Best from Blackburn.

It's the best player in the FA Cup final...

Jerseys are ripped...

Best goal of the FA Cup...

The chirping chatter is getting louder and louder,

Finally a Blackburn fan asked loudly: Best, No. 38 Best, is that really you?

Sun Wu turned his head and forced a smile.

The defeat of Liverpool in the Champions League final silenced the media in England, and shifted the focus of the report to the annual summer transfer period, but most of the transfers have not officially started at this time, so... half a month ago, I walked out of New Wimbledon The news that Best of Lee Stadium went to test his coaching license appeared in various newspapers...

...

Spain.

Barcelona, ​​the capital of Catalonia.

On the left side of Aristides Avenue, there are various bars and coffee shops in the large farm-like courtyard.

Although it is a little quiet, the flow of people is constantly moving, and the sound of shutters is continuous, because this is the entrance to the world-famous quarry.

In 1989, Barcelona coach Johan Cruyff decided to set up a youth training camp here, replicating the concept of the Ajax youth training camp, and the La Masia youth training camp was established.

In a sense, Cruyff, who can criticize Barcelona from the chairman, the head coach, to the most ordinary staff, is not based on the contribution of his player and coaching career to the club, but the La Masia Youth Training Camp.

In the following ten years, La Masia did not bring the gospel to the sinking Barcelona. It was not until the end of the last century, with the appearance of Guardiola and Puyol, that the form began to change. Then Messi, Xavi, Ines The appearance of Tower and Butzkes convinced all Barcelona people that the quarry is the foundation of this club.

The middle-aged man opened the door and walked into the coffee shop. The sound of wind chimes at the door made all the guests turn their heads.

Josep! Several guests waved their hands in greeting.

Although it has only been more than two months since I returned to this city, nothing seems to have changed, friends everywhere, familiar buildings... Guardiola turned his head and looked at the corner, but this does not include this young man from the La Masia youth training team. Camp away coach.

Eddie, what are you looking at?

It's nothing. Patrick put down the newspaper and turned on his watch, You're late again.

You have been away from Spain for too long. Guardiola shrugged. We came to drink coffee, not to go to the bullfight, and we were only less than an hour late.

Spaniards keep time only when participating in bullfighting events...

Have you thought about it? Guardiola ordered a cup of coffee casually, Come and help me, starting with Barcelona B team.

Patrick still hesitated, Actually, you don't lack helpers.

But there is a lack of coaches from La Masia. Guardiola raised his finger. I once had a dream. In the Champions League final, 11 La Masia youth training members will start...

What a wild and great dream...

So I need your help. Guardiola turned his head to look at the newspaper on the table, and suddenly couldn't help laughing, I started my coaching career at the age of 18, so I can't be Portuguese again!

The Portuguese were only translators back then... Patrick smiled, He is of Chinese descent, as I mentioned to you last time.

Guardiola tilted his head and thought for a while before saying: I remember, you were very excited at the time, and you performed well in the FA Cup against Manchester United?

Well, but he seems to be very obsessed with tactics, and originally wanted to follow me to Spain for vacation...

Guardiola listened to his friend talking with great interest, and suddenly said: Eddie, you know, most of La Masia's training grounds are empty during the summer vacation, but a few little guys will join in there. Lian, let him come too.
