King of Competition

Chapter 505 Wonderful Opening 1

As Stuttgart's new head coach, Allen. Fei didn't say anything to the outside world, and many media interviewed Allen before the game. Fei, he has little experience in this field, but he is very good at maintaining his image in front of the media and does not say anything about the game.

The German media quickly gave him a nickname: "Old Fox."

Journalists hate old foxes. They thought it was Allen. Fei is a rookie. Who would have thought that he couldn't get any news from his mouth. This disappointed the German media. In fact, they support Stuttgart. No matter what the current situation in Stuttgart is, from the perspective of the German media, there is no reason to hope that their country's team will lose.

"... I don't know what he is going to do. In the opposite of Newcastle United, it is likely to make Stuttgart depressed from now on, because of Allen. Fei doesn't have any ability..." The Kicker newspaper made a general comment.

"Newcastle United is the most aggressive team in Europe. I just hope that they will show mercy and not hit Allen too much. Fei's confidence, otherwise, I'm afraid we will look for the name of 'Stuttgart' in the German Football League Two next season.

With such comments from influential media such as the Kicker in Germany and even Europe, it is natural to see the views of the fans on the two teams before the game. Naturally, Newcastle United has a great advantage, and their winning rate is very high in the away game. And the turbulent Stuttgart almost became a fragrant cake in the mouth of the media, so it could only be eaten by others.

And in fact, from beginning to end, Aaron. Fei didn't show anything. Everyone said this just because they were not optimistic about him coaching.

That's what a football coach who has never had experience in top leagues and any competitions has taken over a German quasi-tycoon team like Stuttgart. It's really not easy to lead the team to good results. Maybe a few years ago, there was a Mourinho and a Benitez have succeeded, but it's just these two people. Most of his coaches who lead the team in this way are in a mess, Alan. Fei wants to prove himself, but he still has a long way to go.

Up to now, he can only say to the outside world, "I didn't lead the team to lose."

Of course, it's not losing, but it's not that easy to win.

Actually, Allen. Fei naturally has his own ambition to coach the youth team in Stuttgart, Allen. Fei's work contribution is not great, but he thinks he is a master of tactical direction, not a master of training young geniuses.

Alan. Fei really hopes that he will have the opportunity to coach the strong team. Now Stuttgart has given him a chance. Maybe it's time for him to perform. Although I didn't say anything to the outside world, Alan. It's not that Fei didn't think about winning. Although it was not announced before the game, the whole team was in Allen. Under the supervision of Fei, he trained very seriously.

On the first day of taking over the whip, Allenfee said to everyone, "With me, whoever has the ability can play!"

Such an argument is very popular, but no professional player is not afraid. Not being able to play means a lot of things, and it is not a good thing. They are afraid that the head coach will really prevent them from playing, and naturally they are very positive.

Alan. Fei has carefully studied Newcastle United. After researching, he knows that with the current overall strength of Stuttgart, he wants to win and has the best player in the world - Don Jack. Lee's Newcastle United has little hope. The best way to win is to win by surprise.

This is the only way.

Although there are also teams that have defeated Newcastle United in the Premier League, Portsmouth and Newcastle United play well, but those Allen. Fei believes that it is impossible to learn from. After all, Newcastle United's lineup in that game was 'bleak'. What's more, Stuttgart is a German team, which can't be compared with the Premier League team. The advantages and disadvantages of the two are completely different.

So how to win by surprise?

This is Allen before the game. The focus of Fei's research is that he also has a good way to train the team. Stuttgart's internal training is not open to the public, and there is no basis for reporters to interview. However, after the training, reporters saw the plain confidence on the faces of Stuttgart players, which surprised them: it is rare for a team to have such confidence before the game against Newcastle United.

"I have confidence in Allen. Everyone says that he has no coaching experience, but after a few days, I am very convinced of him. I believe that he will lead Stuttgart to victory." The team's main defender, Strantzl, said.

When asked about the next UEFA Cup, Strantzl said, "Jack, that's a difficult opponent. He is the best striker in the world. I played against him in the German league. To be honest, I can't do anything about him, but I have confidence in Coach Allen. As a player, I can do my job well. I believe he can lead us to success!"

Subsequently, other Stuttgart players also expressed their views in support of Allen. Fei accounts for the majority, and a few people are indifferent to the game. They don't seem to care about the outcome of the game.

From this point of view, Kicker analyzed: "There are internal contradictions in Stuttgart!"

"... This is their biggest hidden danger at present, not a game or something... For a team, it's okay to lose a game, even lose the Champions League or the UEFA Cup. Internal discord is the biggest problem. It is difficult for Stuttgart to succeed this season, to Allen. For Fei, solving the current internal problems is the key, not one or two wins.

That's true. Even Stuttgart fans have no confidence in the team.

Because of Allen. Fei's coaching results in the past two Bundesliga games are not very good. He only got one point with one draw and one loss. Such results are really unconvinced. After all, Stuttgart is also a quasi-tycoon in the Bundesliga.

However, Stuttgart's external performance is still good, and the Kicker later praised Allen. Fei's ability, they think Allen. If Fei can lead the team for better results, it is also acceptable to coach Stuttgart.

But whether Stuttgart fans can accept it is another matter.

※※※

Compared with Stuttgart's performance like an enemy, Newcastle United in Stuttgart is more like sightseeing. The main reason is that Sones has a loose management of the team. He doesn't pay attention to the victory or defeat of this game. In Sones's idea, it is also good to lose the game and give up the League for the League. Castle United has gained more.

It is acceptable to lose the League Cup now. After all, it is only the top 32 knockout match, and the team has not poured too much experience into it.

Of course, the team is not here to lose.

Winning also has the advantage of winning. He goes further in the League Cup and even gets a League Cup championship trophy. Of course, Sones is also willing to accept it. You know, he hasn't won a heavyweight trophy in coaching for a long time.

In a contradictory mood, Newcastle United seems to be very relaxed. The players have no pressure on winning or losing, but no pressure on the game, and naturally feel very relaxed. Don Jack wanted to win, but he saw that the atmosphere of the team was very good, but he felt that it was more suitable for victory.

There is no pressure to play a good ball. Maybe many people object to this statement, but Don Jack is a supporter. When he plays football, there is no pressure most of the time, so his goal energy is continuous, and there are very few mistakes. This is the problem of mood.

In the case of the same strength, ordinary players will make a lot of mistakes, even those world-famous stars. They often make some small mistakes on the court, which is a tense relationship and flustered under certain characteristic conditions.

And Don Jack is very few, because his mood has already passed that period. Under any circumstances, Don Jack's mind is very clear. He knows what he should do now and what he should do is the best choice. This is the difference between moods.

Without pressure, Newcastle United may be able to exert stronger strength and cooperate more tacitly, and naturally victory is in sight.

For Stuttgart's opponent, in fact, Don Jack doesn't pay attention to it at all. This is not that he underestimates his opponent, but that their defense is difficult to defend against Don Jack. He has this confidence.

It's a little apprehensing to say, but that's the truth.

For the game, Soness did not arrange any surprising tactics. Stuttgart is not a strong opponent for Newcastle United. Of course, victory must be fought, but in general tactics, Newcastle United can already deal with the relatively chaotic Stuttgart.

Don Jack appeared as a starting striker.

In this game, Soness believes that Don Jack should be allowed to be the main striker. The team's midfielders Parker, Jenas, and two wingers are enough to effectively support Don Jack. As long as there is a chance, Don Jack can play the power of the scorer's goals. This is a simple and practical battle for Newcastle United. Art.

To deal with a team like Stuttgart, too complicated tactics have become a burden.

In the view of most media, in the style of the two teams, even in Stuttgart at home, they will definitely choose to defend. At most, the two teams will play a small attack, and the game will not be too fierce, so there are not many media reporters interviewing this game. Perhaps the main reason is that the influence of the UEFA Cup and the Champions Cup are too different. Unless it is a game after the top four, the previous events are difficult to attract the attention of fans.

However, the reporters who came to the court still interviewed the head coaches of the two teams.

Sones and Allen. Fei, these two coaches are not very famous. Although the Newcastle United, where Sonness is now coached, is famous all over the world, when it comes to Newcastle United, the first thing that fans think of is always Don Jack, then Shearer, Owen, and then maybe Luke, Parker and others, and then the head coach Sones.

As for Allen. The fee... Who is he?

Fans will be at a loss, and naturally the English media will be against Allen. Fei was also very confused. Perhaps it was this confusion that aroused their interest. At the press conference before the game, Soness almost became a spectator, and more English journalists chose to interview Allen. Fee.

"Do you have any previous experience in coaching a German team?"

"What do you think of the game? Who will be Newcastle United's biggest threat to Stuttgart?

"I heard that you are a relative of the director of Stuttgart. What do you think of this?"

......

The media reporters of England's big newspaper all look like gossip tabloid reporters. These complicated questions are asked by Allen. It's hard to answer. It seems that he is very immature in this regard. Sones was very happy. He looked at the opponent opposite and had a feeling of disdain.

Alan. Fei's current appearance is really too 'depressing'.

The performance of the Stuttgart coach before the game can be said to be not very good, so most media reporters and fans have no hope that Stuttgart can create a miracle to win Newcastle United. They all think that the game will be one-sided. The knockout match of the League Cup, like the Champions League, is divided into home games and away games. They will all lose and return to St. James' Park in Newcastle, not to mention that Stuttgart has been equated with 'eliminated' in the hearts of more people.

Under such noise, the game finally began.

Newcastle United is a standard 442 formation. Don Jack and Ameoby are double forwards. The midfielder four are Jenas, Parker, Luke and Nzobia. Such an offensive lineup is the strongest formation that Newcastle United can play at present. As soon as the starting lineup comes out, it is interested in Newcastle United. The rumor of giving up the League Cup is self-deadjusted.

There are many Newcastle United fans who come with the team. They also heard similar rumors before the game. However, in the opinion of real Newcastle United fans, the team's results this season are completely acceptable. The team is at least second in the league. Next season's Champions League is qualified. In order to compete for the league championship, release It is acceptable to abandon a League Cup.

When they see the team's starting lineup, Newcastle United fans know that the team will not give up the game easily, which makes them happy, but they are also worried that real Newcastle United fans will think of the team's current problems. In fact, their hearts are the same contradiction as Sones.

The Stuttgart team had no choice. They were eliminated in the Champions League group stage, and the league results were not good. The only thing they could win was the League Cup championship, otherwise they would win nothing this season.

"We should speed up the pace of the game and strive to score goals when they are not used to it!"

The Stuttgart players on the field all remember the head coach Allen before the game. As Fei said, a few days of training are just for this game, and they naturally know how to play.
