Chapter 89 First Training Lesson

Under the escort of security guards, Digan finally broke through the siege of reporters and fans and entered the training ground. The first thing he went to see was Antienes. After he returned to London from the Maldives, the two only passed a few phone calls to finalize Pocoline's introduction plan.

Speaking of which, the two have not seen each other for a long time. Every year, they only send text messages to say hello at Christmas. In the past two years, Antiennis has been recuperating. During this period, a club invited him to coach, but he refused. After all, his men are used to Lv Bu and Zhao Yun, who ascended the throne. The fierce general, let him command Liao Hua and Zhou Cang, that is unacceptable to ordinary people. The main reason why he agreed to come to Tottenham this time is still Degan.

No head coach can refuse to coach such an excellent player as Degan. Of course, Antiennis, who knows Degan best, will only accept it with great joy and look forward to greater glory.

"Rod! Long time no see!"

When Degan saw Antienes, he smiled and shook hands with the other party: "Hello! Coach! I'm glad we can work together again!"

Digan has met many coaches since his debut in Atlanta, but he can really coexist peacefully with him and support him. He knew that Atlanta coach Coroni, Fiorentina coach Prandelli, and former Belgian national team coach Antiennis.

Levy said that he would invite Antienes to coach Tottenham, which was also an important reason why Degan made up his mind and agreed to come to Tottenham.

After all, after experiencing Guardiola, Bilanova and Wilmot, Degan also hopes to continue to enjoy his career under a coach who knows him well enough and trusts him.

"Where's Coach Francois!?"

Digan is a little curious. In his impression, Antiennis and Francois are definitely inseparable from Meng, Meng is inseparable from the focus, and a pair of good friends. Antienenis appears here, but Francois is not here. He is really not used to it.

When Antienis saw that Digan mentioned his good friend Francois, he was also a little helpless: "Don't mention him, let's break up."

Digan was shocked: "What do you mean?"

antienis and Francois parted ways. Can you still believe in love?

Antiennis shrugged his shoulders and said, "Nothing, he had signed a contract with Tottenham Hotspur, but later the Belgian Football Association found him and hoped that he could be the head coach of the national team, so~~~~~~ You know, I can't stop him from realizing his ideals!"

François becomes the head coach of the Belgian national team!

This is really big news. Degan didn't get any news before. Of course, at that time, he and Park Ji-yeon were enjoying an isolated honeymoon trip on the island of the Maldives. It is estimated that the Belgian Football Association just wanted to ask for his opinion, but he couldn't find anyone.

Originally, the Belgian Football Association originally chose Antiennis, but at that time, Antiennis had signed a contract with Tottenham Hotspur, and he was not interested in returning to coach the national team. The Belgian Football Association had to retreat and contacted Francois.

Although Francois has always been the assistant coach of Antiennis, the glory of Belgian football is also inseparable from his credit, and his reputation in world football is not small.

François's dream has always been to become the head coach of a national team. The Belgian Football Association actually contacted him, which made Francois overjoyed, and then terminated the contract with Tottenham Hotspur and rushed to his dream position.

Digan smiled when he heard the words: "That's a pity. Who is the assistant coach of the team now?"

"Ledley. Kim! The former captain of Tottenham Hotspur!" Antienis pointed to the training ground not far away, "That's the man. I think you should know him!"

Of course Degan knows, Ledley. Kim can be said to be an iconic figure of Tottenham Hotspur for a long time. Although he is not very famous in international football, in terms of his position in Tottenham Hotspur, it is basically the English Tottenham's version of Maldini.

"Go up and say hello to your new teammates!"

Digan refused: "It's better not to do it first. Training is important. It's only a few days before the start of the new season!"

When Antienes heard this, he nodded: "Okay! Then go and change your clothes! I'll wait for you at the training ground!"

After the end of the European Cup, Degan visited Tottenham and was familiar with the facilities here. He found the dressing room, changed his No. 9 shirt, and then walked to the training ground.

At this time, Tottenham's players also saw Degan. Here, Degan's acquaintances are many. Modric, Vertongham, Poccleinho and Dembélé are all his old friends. When they saw Degan, they were also a little excited, but because the head coach was on the side, they did not dare to stop and move. Huh.

As for the young people in the team, they are even more excited at this moment. For them, Degan is an absolute idol. They can still control it and don't run to ask for an autograph. It's completely Ledley. It is caused by Kim's accumulation in the team.

Of course, there are also some people whose moods are complicated, such as Adbayor. Although he is very conceited and a little arrogant, he will not be arrogant and feels that he can compete with Degan for the main position.

Before Degan came, he was the number one center in the team. Now that Degan has come, his position is not guaranteed, and he is also worried at this moment.

Another complicated mood is Garras, who was originally Lydley in the middle of last season. After Kim announced his retirement, he felt that he had hope to wear the captain's armband. Although the team's vice captain was Dawson, he was a glassman. He had been recovering for nearly half a year or even longer. At that time, the captain's armband was basically the vice captain.

If he can really become the captain of Tottenham Hotspur, it will be very good for him to stabilize his position in the team.

Garas had previously served as the captain of the team at Arsenal and had great hope of taking over the captain's armband, but now that Degan has come, he has become the new captain of the team before he has arrived.

It's okay if he didn't get the captain's armband, but the problem is that when he played for Arsenal, he once had a conflict with Degan on the court.

What will Degan do now?

Will you retaliate against him?

You should know that most of Tottenham's players from the head coach to the team are Degan's supporters. He is a veteran who has entered the end of his career in his thirties. It is not surprising if he is excluded.

On the training ground, people have different thoughts. At the side of the court, Antienis is asking about the recovery of Degan. For a long time, Degan has not carried out systematic training, and the state is also unknown.

"How's the recovery?" Antienis asked, "Otherwise, let's have a 30-minute confrontation training!"

Degan nodded with a smile: "Of course, let's start!"

Antiennis stopped the training first, and then took Ledley. King called him, introduced him to Digan, and then announced a 30-minute warm-up match in the team.

At present, except for the old injured Dawson, there are 25 people in Tottenham, and 21 people in addition to four goalkeepers.

Degan took the initiative to ask for the substitute to partner with Dempsey. It can be seen that the captain of the American team, who is two years older than him, is very excited.

However, Degan is not in the mood to talk to the other party now. He has not been in contact with football for more than a month, and Degan is also itchy.

Assistant coach Ledley. King guest starred as the referee of this game. As soon as the whistle sounded, the substitute took the lead in launching the attack. Antienes, who was originally worried about Degan's state, was completely relieved from the first touch of the ball.

In this world, some people's sense of ball is completely natural.

Receive the ball, stop the ball, carry the ball, break through, shoot and score. All the movements are so fast that the teammates who defend him can't react.

Antienes stood on the sidelines with his shoulders and faintly excited. He felt lucky because he met Degan, who had reached the height that everyone dreamed of being the head coach of the national team. Now if he can succeed again in the position of club coach , he will surpass the legendary Italian coach Lippi and become the first well-deserved world football coach.

On the court, Digan became more and more excited. He had too much energy to release. For more than a month, he and Park Zhiyan were together. Although he was very happy, he always felt that there was something missing in his life after leaving football. Now, everything has returned to its normal trajectory.

Degan is not a crazy SHOW. After gradually regaining his feelings, he began to fulfill his duties as a captain. Although many teammates played football together for the first time, Degan soon became familiar with the way they played football.

For example, his forward partner Dempsey is not a traditional striker. He prefers to move outside the penalty area. Whether it is passing or receiving, he does a very good job and has an accurate long shot.

Degan gave full play to Dumpsey's characteristics. When he reached the front, he kept playing for Dempsey and tried to cooperate. In just ten minutes, Degan scored two more goals and assisted Dempsey, capturing Loris' goal twice.

At the end of the first half of 15 minutes, then Degan joined the main force. This time, he was a partner of Defort. The characteristics of Defort were more obvious. It was fast and the threat in the counterattack was huge. Degan pulled behind Defort and took on the midfield and front line. The connection point and a few consecutive passes made Difor very comfortable, and a hat-trick was staged in ten minutes.

Antiennis saw this and then replaced the young player Coulibaly. Degan also immediately adjusted his role and formed a double arrow with Coulibaly, using his speed and body to open the gap in the opponent's defense. As a result, the young Côte d'Ivoire young player scored two goals honestly and rudely. .

At the end of the 30-minute game, Tottenham's players have been completely impressed by Degan. The king is the king of the ball. No matter which team, they can show the greatest energy in the shortest time.

When playing football with Degan, their most intuitive feeling is that they are comfortable!

It's really comfortable. Whether it's passing or receiving the ball, whether it's a terminator or a conveyor, standing beside Degan, it's too simple to play these roles.

After the training match, the players went back to the locker room, and Antienis took Rydley. Jin called to his side and could see that the former captain of Tottenham was very excited. Looking at his expression, if it weren't for physical reasons, the black man would have announced his comeback on the spot.

"Redley! What do you think of Rod?"

Ledley. What else can Kim say: "That's great! That's great! I seem to have seen the hope of the rise of Tottenham Hotspur, boss! Maybe the season goal we set before is a little low. We should be bolder, champion! We are going to win the league championship this season!"

Previously, Levi set them the goal of entering the top three in the league, the Champions League to enter the second round of the knockout stage, and the domestic cup to win a championship.

However, after owning Degan, this goal is obviously a little childish.

Ledley. Although Kim did not dare to expect the quadruple championship, he felt that Tottenham was very promising for the league championship.

Andiernis has the same idea. It's not normal for a team with Degan to fight for the championship.

"That's right! Rod is the best player I have ever seen, and I have seen the champion beckoning to us now! Let's go! Ryley! Go and introduce Rod to his teammates!"

The two also walked into the locker room. At this time, some players had taken a shower, changed their clothes and were tidying up their storage boxes.

See Antienes and Ledley. Kim came in and greeted him one after another.

"Where's Rod!?"

Modric pointed to the bathroom: "Rod is still taking a shower! It should come out!"

As he spoke, Degan came out as he wiped his hair, ** his upper body, and his lower body was wrapped in a bath towel.

"Rod! I think you are familiar with your teammates. Now introduce yourself. In the next five years, you will be their captain!"

Digan was stunned and pointed to himself: "Coach! Are you going to ask me to do this for the inauguration ceremony?

There was a burst of laughter in the locker room.

Seeing that Antienes was also laughing, Degan was a little helpless: "Okay! I'm willing to satisfy your bad taste!"

Degan said and walked to the center of his most familiar dressing room. At the beginning, in Florence, in the Belgian national team, that position was his podium.
