Football’s First Defender
Chapter 153: Hiddink
Successively in the league, losing to Manchester United and Liverpool's two direct competitors in the championship, Scolari may really be unable to survive this time!
As the saying goes, after the defeat against Liverpool, Scolari felt that the staff of the club had lost their enthusiasm for him before he left.
"Maybe it's time to leave!"
Scolari does not think there is anything wrong with his football philosophy, nor does he think there is any problem with his coaching level. You must know that even if he lost to Liverpool, Chelsea was still in third place in the league at this time and was far from the top of the league. Manchester United is only 5 points away! The UEFA Champions League group stage also succeeded in qualifying as the first in the group!
Such an achievement is not a big failure for a coach who is coaching a Premier League club for the first time!
It's just that Scolari may have forgotten that the team he coached was last season's Premier League runner-up, Champions League runner-up, no matter how good the results, if not the champion, for Chelsea fans, for owner Abramovich, it is all Meaningless!
Abramovich has already ordered people to start looking for a new coach. Even if it is a fire-fighting coach, Abrahim also wants to see new changes in the team, not like the present one. Once a tough battle is reached, he will always lose for various reasons. One side! He needs Chelsea to find the iron spirit and spirit of the year!
He did not fire Scolari immediately after the match against Liverpool. Firstly, he had not finalized the new coach, and secondly, he was also the management staff of Abramovich and Chelsea. I hope Scolari will take the initiative to submit his resignation!
However, as far as Scolari is concerned, there is no penalty for resignation. Since the face is destined to be gone, he still has to get it. After all, he is not Mourinho, and his relationship with Chelsea is so deep that he doesn't need the penalty. To the point!
In this way, Scolari was in the handsome position again, persisting for a week, leading the team against Tiger City Hull!
After this game, the national team competition week will usher in, and it is also the most willing time for European clubs to change coaches in the season!
However, although Scolari's departure is a foregone conclusion, he still has to stick to his tactical philosophy in the last possible game. This time, he hopes to prove himself against the weak opponent of Hull City!
Drogba was completely placed on the bench by Scolari. Anyway, there is no chance. For Scolari, this game is just about arranging troops as he pleases! Anelka and Kalu team up with double strikers!
Unexpectedly, as soon as the masters and apprentices got together, they would have to separate again. Scolari used the Quaresma rented from the Winter Window as his own advocate, and he partnered with Malouda on the other side and separated on two sides!
Lampard and Mikel are double midfielders, responsible for defense, and handling the ball appropriately!
Alex continues to be trusted as a central defender. Perhaps after Carvalho is injured, in Scolari’s eyes, no one else can beat Alex at the central defender position!
Terry, Ashley Cole, and Bosingwa are still the main force that can't be beaten!
Scolari is going to continue to try and use the breakthrough abilities of the two sides to create opportunities and win!
However, maybe Scolari is still in the era of coaching the national team, or he is obsessed with the past coaching in Brazil. In the Premier League, wing breakthrough is indeed very applicable, but it is based on the wing players. With excellent internal cutting ability, or there are high center forwards in the team who can complete the situation of grabbing points!
But Malouda also has Quaresma, not Cristiano Ronaldo. They may be able to disrupt the opponent's defense line and create passing opportunities, but if they want them to use their personal ability to complete the inner cut, it is a bit difficult for them!
Especially Quaresma, he can dedicate the kind of goals of the season's highlights, but with most of the nerve knife attributes, he is not a stable shooter!
And when the two wing passes were facing Hull City, the traditional British defense line, most of the passes were contested by its tall central defender!
Anelka is indeed an excellent forward, but in this case, the melee in the penalty area is definitely not the same level as Drogba!
Throughout the game, Chelsea approached 70% of the ball, hitting 23 feet, but didn't return even a goal!
Among the so-called 23-foot shots, part was a long shot, and part was in the penalty area, and encountered a football without threatening headers, so-called false shots! Only the shooting data is accumulated, but there is no threat!
On the contrary, Hull City used several successful defenses on the wing, but the counterattack was vivid and colorful, which was more threatening than Chelsea's offensive!
It's just that the ability of these underdog strikers to seize opportunities is really too bad, otherwise Hull City may not take away from Stamford Bridge by one point, but three points!
The 0-0 score was maintained to the audience. Scolari walked back to the dressing room silently among the fans at Stamford Bridge shouting "Class off". Perhaps this time, it was really the last time Chelsea played The coach has come to Stamford Bridge!
After the match, the general manager of Chelsea personally called Scolari and declared to him that his work at Chelsea was officially over!
As for the liquidated damages, they will also be paid to him in batches according to the process!
The Blue Army era belonging to Scolari is over!
The Chelsea players were in the locker room after the game was personally informed by the general manager that Scolari had been fired!
Perhaps for Alex, Belletti, Quaresma and others, this is not good news, but for the vast majority of players, Scolari, the Brazilian who does not understand the Premier League, is finally gone!
Yang Feng, while at home, was notified by the team management that Scolari had been dismissed and asked him to report back to the first team directly the next day!
For a big club like Chelsea, the departure of Scolari’s team will not cause turbulence in the team’s training system. After all, the coaches who belong directly to the club are the cornerstone of the team’s coaching system. The coach cannot occupy a key position like the head coach team, but the coaching level is definitely not low!
Yang Feng was sent to the reserve team before, and it was guided by the defensive coach sent by the management 1 to 1. Anyway, in Yang Feng's feeling, this little-known defensive coach is definitely no worse than his own coach in Zenit! The wealth of wealthy players is definitely not only superstar players, but also the staff of the logistics department is also an important part!
Early the next morning! Chelsea officials conveniently held a press conference! It was officially announced that the team coach Scolari was unilaterally fired!
"The team's head coach Mr. Scolari will leave the Chelsea club! Chelsea officials thank him for his work during his coaching period and wish him all the best in the future. The club will appoint an interim coach to coach until the end of the season. Try to find a new coach."
The brief press conference did not immediately announce who will take over the coaches of Chelsea for the remaining half of the season!
After all, it is not easy to be a firefighting coach. It is still a half-season job. Among the giants like Chelsea, it is definitely a thankless job!
Just when the media speculated that Chelsea would help the assistant coach, or find some British coaches who are at home, Chelsea officially announced the next day that the current Russian national team coach Hiddink will "part-time" the Chelsea coach for half a season. !
The media was in an uproar!
Hiddink is definitely an excellent head coach! The outstanding results of the team he has led over the years are obvious to all!
Not to mention that, in the European Cup that has just ended, the Russian team led by him successfully reached the semi-finals, which is the best proof of his coaching ability!
Not to mention that he also led South Korea to reach the World Cup semi-finals in 2002, creating the best result of an Asian team in the World Cup! In 2006, he led Australia to the top 16 of the World Cup!
And the last time he coached the club team was coach PSV in the Eredivisie before 2006~lightnovelpub.net~ and led PSV to win the Eredivisie!
It's just that the British media, for this kind of "part-time" behavior of serving as the coach of the national team and the club at the same time, how they look a little unprofessional!
Although Hiddink played part-time in 2006, led Eindhoven to win the Dutch League championship in the same year, and in the summer, led Australia to the top 16 of the World Cup. It can be said that there is no conflict between the two jobs and they have completed the poles. it is good!
But this is the Premier League! Many football professionals can only admire Abramovich's contacts in Russia and his boldness in employing people!
After all, this kind of "poaching" behavior is impossible without passing the Russian Football Association!
However, due to the task of the Russian national team, the new Chelsea coach Hiddink is destined to be like his players, waiting for the end of the national team game day, and the team will reunite!
"Hiddink?"
"Hope this old man, don't cheat me like Scolari! I don't want to play in the reserve league anymore!"
For Yang Feng, in fact, during the winter window, he expressed through his agent that he wanted to rent out to play games! Many clubs in the middle and lower reaches of the Premier League did try to loan Yang Feng from Chelsea, but they were rejected by Chelsea's general manager!
At that time, Scolari's coaching position was already in danger, and Yang Feng's performance in the reserve team was obvious to all, so Yang Feng was also told that the team will give him more opportunities after the coaching change!
As far as Yang Feng is concerned, he also understands that with Carvalho injured and Alex always making mistakes this season, if he can really replace the crony Scolari, then he has no chance to fight!
If you can gain a foothold in a club like Chelsea, it will definitely be a huge leap for your career!
