Chapter 2 Changsheng's Choice

If you read the news about Chang Sheng being dismissed from the Club of Rome in the newspapers and TV these two days, you will definitely think that Chang Sheng is in the midst of the bleak wind and rain, terrified all day long, the future is bleak, and it has reached the end of the mountain. the point.

But in fact, Chang Sheng was far less miserable than people imagined.

It can even be said that on the night when the news leaked, the phone calls between Chang Sheng and his agent Kate Gracie exploded—not from those curious reporters, but from other European clubs.

Some people think that Chang Sheng's encounter with Waterloo in Rome will cast a shadow over his coaching career.

But it is a pity that even if they are scolded bloody by the media, using Rome's experience to prove that Changsheng is not suitable for Serie A. In fact, many teams in Serie A have expressed interest in Changsheng.

Lazio president Lotito was the first to call in, joking that he was an eager audience vying for the hotline.

He reiterated Lazio's interest in Changsheng again on the phone, hoping that Changsheng can coach Lazio next season. If it weren't for Italy's regulation that a head coach can only coach one Serie A team in a season, he would now like to coach Lazio with constant victories.

In addition to Lazio, in Serie A there are Fiorentina, who are aiming for revival, and Udinese, who are budget-conscious.

Fiorentina ranks twelfth in the league so far this season. Dino Zoff's performance in leading the team is not satisfactory. Fiorentina hopes that winning can lead the team to success. Although Chang Sheng suffered a failure in Rome, everyone knows that the reason is actually two-sided. Totti took the lead in confronting Chang Sheng, which is also an important reason for the team's unstable performance... It cannot be said that there is a problem with Chang Sheng's coaching level.

Udinese, on the other hand, is interested in Chang Sheng's ability to make money in the transfer market. In the transfer market, he is good at buying players who are not yet well-known and low-priced, and then through his own training, he finally becomes a star with a high price. Udinese's business strategy is almost the same as that of Changsheng. They believe that Changsheng should be able to feel like a duck to water in Udinese.

The news that these Italian teams are interested in Changsheng has not yet spread, otherwise, for those media who shouted that Italy is no longer suitable for Changsheng, I really don’t know how they feel...

Apart from Italy, there is no shortage of suitors in Europe.

in Germany. The Dortmund club threw an olive branch to Chang Sheng, hoping to get Chang Sheng's favor.

In France, Marseille invited Chang Sheng to an interview.

in England,

Both Tottenham Hotspur and Liverpool clubs are persistent in their victories and their coaching staff.

Liverpool contacted Chang Sheng in the summer, when Chang Sheng had just said goodbye to Valencia.

Tottenham Hotspur also hope to get the champion coach.

In addition, the Portuguese giants Porto hope to win often, and they were conquered by Chang Sheng's performance in the Champions League final.

Of course. Changsheng's most popular place will always be in Spain.

After hearing that the Roma club was going to fire Chang Sheng, the Spanish clubs were excited-finally had the opportunity to get this excellent head coach!

Deportivo, Sevilla, Villarreal, Real Betis... and other teams all called to ask if Chang Sheng would like to coach with them.

Kate Gracie also told Chang Sheng that the teams that are interested in Chang Sheng even include...Atletico Madrid!

Chang Sheng thought he heard it wrong, but Kate Gracie laughed and told him that it was Atletico Madrid!

Chang Sheng has to suspect that the world is crazy...

In short, Chang Sheng has no worries about being released now. Which club he wants to go to, as long as he nods, someone will naturally offer him a satisfactory contract.

Although the Club of Rome and the Italian media shifted the responsibility for dismissal to Chang Sheng.

But what does it mean that Chang Sheng is still very popular now?

It shows that everyone in the industry is like a bright mirror in their hearts.

It is not very tenable to think that the winning tactics are not suitable for Rome and Italy, which leads to the ups and downs of the team's performance.

In the beginning, Chang Sheng really planned to copy his tactics from Spain to Italy. But after only a few rounds of the league, he realized something was wrong. It won't work. So he began to try to adjust his tactics. But at this time, Totti publicly stood up to criticize Changsheng, and the media revealed that Prandelli, whom Totti supported at the beginning, turned out to be Changsheng brought by the Roma club, which made Totti very dissatisfied.

Taking Totti's firing at Chang Sheng as an opportunity, the civil strife in the Roma locker room began.

On the one hand, Chang Sheng has to adjust his tactics and re-do the training plan. On the other hand, he has to fight Totti and the media.

Originally, the club promised to support Changsheng, but what happened? At first there was silence on the matter.

It was only later that Chang Sheng learned that the club remained silent on the surface, but had actually promised Totti that it would support Totti...

Looking at the results alone, in fact, as a coach who has just come to Italy to coach, Chang Sheng is considered very good for a young man whose coaching career has only four and a half seasons in total.

Thirteen rounds have been played in the league, and Roma has 18 points, ranking sixth. Four wins, six draws and three losses, such a result can never be said to be bad.

In the process of adjusting tactics, it is normal to have more draws.

Of course, the difference between 18 points and the 32 points of Juventus, the number one in the league, is a bit much. But Roma didn't say at the beginning that they must lead the team to win the Serie A championship in the first season.

So the so-called grades are just an excuse, the key is the internal turmoil in the club and the division of the locker room.

This is a unique phenomenon in Rome. Other clubs are not worried about it. They still believe in Chang Sheng's coaching level.

※※※

Now it seems that Spanish clubs are the most enthusiastic. If Chang Sheng is willing to return to Spain, I believe that with his ability and experience in Spanish football, he can also achieve the same success as in Valencia.

But Chang Sheng did not intend to do so.

Because that is escape.

Not only to return to Spain, as long as he goes to any club in other countries. He will be considered to have escaped.

A loser in Italy can only leave the place where he met Waterloo in despair. From now on he will be labeled "you are a loser, you will never succeed in Italy".

In fact, even if he goes out for a while and then returns to Italy, and then achieves success, people will still say that he achieved success by relying on his qualifications and connections, and the gold content is not enough.

Chang Sheng hates being a loser the most, so it is absolutely impossible for him to run away at this time.

Otherwise, he could have left when he was in Rome, because Rome's contract stated that if the Roma club broke the promise in the contract. He is free to leave, and the Club of Rome cannot ask him for a dime in compensation.

But why doesn't he leave?

Because he didn't want to be a loser, and he didn't want to leave Rome in such a disheartened manner. He firmly believes that he can succeed in Rome and Italy, and in fact his tactical adjustments have played a role, and Rome's recent results are slowly recovering.

But I didn't expect that the Club of Rome tried to compensate Chang Sheng's huge salary and also fired him.

Obviously Totti put a lot of pressure on them behind the scenes. Such as "he and I can only keep one, if you choose him, then I will transfer and leave".

So Chang Sheng was fired just like that.

But Chang Sheng does not intend to let it go.

Slapping faces at home can be done in Rome or in other teams.

As long as it's in Italy.

Now there are three teams in Italy who are most interested in him, which one to choose?

Many people may be inclined to Viola Florence.

But Chang Sheng wouldn't do that.

Rome, didn't you put all the responsibility on me? Don't you think I'm not suitable to coach in Italy? Aren't you planning to ruin my reputation?

This is Italy. I'm still booked!

Not only do I stay in Italy, I also want to stay in Rome!

As I said, I came to conquer this place, and the revolution has not yet succeeded, so how could I run away halfway?

Chang Sheng already had the answer in his heart.

Face-to-face such a promising thing. How could I not do it myself?

So watching those bad-mouthing and mocking programs on TV, Chang Sheng picked up his phone.

Then dialed the phone number of Lazio club president Lotito.

※※※

Lotito is indeed among all those who seek to win constantly. The most persistent and sincere people.

When Chang Sheng revealed that he had left Valencia, he called immediately, hoping to invite Chang Sheng to coach Lazio.

Now Chang Sheng is kicked out by Rome. When Chang Sheng announced the news at the post-match press conference, Lotito was the one who called Chang Sheng immediately to explain his sincerity and conditions.

As the chairman of the Lazio club, Lotito really has the meaning of "three visits to the thatched cottage".

In the past, Changsheng did not choose Lazio, mainly because Lazio did not qualify for the Champions League and had no money.

But now, under the ridicule and smearing of the Club of Rome and the media, these are not problems anymore.

No money?

You don't need to spend a lot of money to be taken advantage of when you buy someone yourself. And I can also make money for the club in the transfer market!

Not qualified for the Champions League?

If you are always victorious, you will be eligible for the Champions League.

Not a strong team?

It's okay, as the saying goes, if you have yourself, you are a strong team.

Once Chang Sheng is determined to give Rome a good look, then the constraints he thought were problems before are no longer a problem.

The point is that Lotito is indeed very sincere.

He told Chang Sheng before that the club's current finances are indeed not very good, but he can be supported to the maximum, as long as Chang Sheng can create a champion team for Lazio. He is actively solving the club's debt problem. If it can be resolved, the club will not be restricted too much financially.

Then Lotito firmly believes that Chang Sheng is a head coach who can bring Lazio a championship. As for the overwhelming propaganda in the Italian media that Chang Sheng is not suitable for Italy, Lotito believes that those are all lies. As long as Changsheng can bring Lazio a championship, Lazio's financial crisis can be resolved faster.

Lotito said that all the rights that Changsheng wants can be written into the contract. If the club violates Changsheng, it can not only leave the team at any time, but also demand high compensation.

Money is the most important thing for Lotito now, and he is willing to write this into the contract, which shows his determination.

But Chang Sheng really doesn't have to worry too much about power, because Lotito really wants him to wear multiple hats. Just after Lotito took over the Lazio club, in order to save money, he launched a major cleaning campaign. From the managerial level to the team itself, from the administrative department to the warehouse keeper, Lotito must do everything he can. Some wear more than one hat. Non-essential departments, such as cooks, secretaries, and general staff, will all have their salaries cut. He's not even going to have a club general manager.

In this way, Chang Sheng will naturally gain the control of the team he dreamed of.

Because both the club manager and the team head coach manage the team, since the head coach is indispensable, the general manager can be fired...

Of course, not everything is good.

If Chang Sheng is going to Lazio, he must accept the request for a salary cut. Because Lazio has no money now, the maximum annual salary of their entire team, whether they are head coaches or players, is two million euros.

But this is not a problem for Chang Sheng, he is not short of such a salary now.

He wants revenge now, seeks revenge from Rome, and declares to the whole of Italy—he, Chang Sheng, is indeed here to conquer this place!

PS, there will be another chapter of The Gods Are Red and Changing in the evening, and it will be delivered at 8 o'clock!

The situation has become clear, and the answer to the mystery has really been revealed!

Chang Sheng's next battle is still in Rome... City!
