After a period of flash, Paris Saint-Germain quickly adjusted its tactical style and suppressed the flash points of Dynamo Zagreb, especially Matuidi's substitute, which made Kovacic dim again.

Gao Han is also used to this situation.

Modern professional football emphasizes the overall situation. No matter how strong the player's personal ability is, he can only play in one-on-one situations. It is basically impossible to fight the entire team alone like Pele, Maradona, or even Ronaldo in the early days.

Dynamo Zagreb's overall strength is at a disadvantage, and the ball is controlled by Paris Saint-Germain. Not to mention that the Wizards of Kovacci are eighteen years old, they don't have much to do. Even if he is the core main force of the team, it will be difficult to play a role.

But after watching his flash for just over ten minutes, Gao Han really missed him a little. There were really not many players like him.

"What? Is it very entangled?" Zidane asked happily.

After working with Gao Han for more than a year, he knew Gao Han's personality very well. This guy is definitely a pedophile. He couldn't take his eyes off when he saw excellent players. When he saw some talented players being defrauded of training, he was also full of regret and heartbroken.

For example, James Rodriguez who transferred to Real Madrid, Gao Han complained to Zidane more than once about Mourinho's use of him, believing that this is killing the potential and talent of the Colombians.

But there is no way. The player wants to transfer, and Real Madrid has paid for it. How to use it is their business.

To be honest, players in professional football are like products, and they will not belong to you if sold.

"I'm very interested in what he will develop in the future." Gao Han smiled expectantly.

Zidane also nodded and smiled, "Yes, it's like I'm looking forward to the future growth of Hazard, Isco, Pogba, De Bruyne and others. What will happen to Chinatown when such a group of geniuses gathered?"

It sounds like Zidane is more interested in the latter question than the previous question.

"Maybe we can win the championship and break the dominance of the top three." Gao Han said confidently.

"Barcelona's glory will not last long. After Guardiola leaves the team, within two or three years, metabolism will become a big problem in front of Barcelona, ​​especially the golden combination of Xavi and Iniesta is no longer replicable."

Many fans like to label professional players, which is a very lazy method, but in the eyes of professionals, every player is unique.

Even if there are youth training such as La Macia, Xavi and Iniesta are both from youth training and have strong traces of the La Macia youth training assembly line. But in fact, it is impossible for La Macia to train players like Xavi and Iniesta. The glory of Guardiola Dream Team 3 cannot be replicated.

The coach can be the same coach, the students can learn exactly the same things in La Macia, and the training and guidance they receive can also be exactly the same, but the things that each player can learn and make progress cannot be the same.

Just like Zidane.

More than a decade have passed. Has European football trained players close to Zidane at the technical level?

The answer is, there are, and there are quite a few.

In fact, many players are close to and even surpass Zidane at the technical level.

Then why no one can reach Zidane's height?

The reason is very simple. They can't play football like Zidane, or even let Zidane teach himself. He can't let others learn to play football like him.

As Gao Han said before, it was an instinctive feeling that could not be taught by words.

By the same token, even if La Macia is really a player in the assembly line training, it is impossible to train a second Xavi and Iniesta.

Once Xavi and Iniesta grow old, Barcelona fail to get strong aid, or the signings fail to achieve the expected results, then what follows is Barcelona's control decline.

Guardiola was able to play various formations and tactical styles in Barcelona without restraint. To put it bluntly, he would never leave his own principles. His super control is his confidence. Once his control declines, all the problems in Barcelona will be exposed.

Of course, with Barcelona's strong financial resources, we will definitely make up for this problem through signings as much as possible. However, by that time, the strength of La Liga will face a reshuffle, and Chinatown will also usher in an opportunity.

"Herreira is gradually developing towards b2b and oppression, and is already a famous midfielder in La Liga. The combination with Rakitic is the guarantee of continuous reversals in Chinatown last season, but many people only noticed Rakitic, but ignored Herrera's tactical role."

Zidane looked at Gao Han with a smile, "But Simeone doesn't. He is the head coach who likes this type of player the most, so Atletico Madrid will spare no expense to introduce Herrera. For Chinatown, letting Herrera go can promote the team's transformation well. Players with stronger control abilities such as Isco, Veratti, and Pogba begin to get more opportunities."

"If I'm not mistaken, Chinatown will continue to develop in the control direction in the next few years, and even if it really develops as smoothly as you expected, Chinatown in the future will not only break the top three in the La Liga, but also want to make a difference in the Champions League."

In fact, Chinatown's performance in the Champions League in the past season has been a big surprise.

Gao Han really didn't expect that Zidane could see so much, but he didn't let it go at all.

Your uncle is still your uncle after all.

A superstar like Zidane is still top-notch even if he retires and becomes a coach.

Of course, what he lacks now is only experience.

Gao Han also secretly decided in his heart that he should give Zidane a proper burden to give him more training opportunities, and at the same time he was lazy and dealt with more of his own affairs.

"What? Am I wrong?" Zidane was a little surprised when he saw Gao Han pondering.

But Gao Han smiled slightly, "No, you're right. I just remembered Guardiola back then. He is like you now. Sometimes he even wants to point out his opponent's players in anger."

After a pause, Gao Han added, "Of course, I'm not comparing you with him, I just think that if you come out to coach alone, you will definitely have the ability to become the best head coach in the world."

Given unexpected praise, Zidane smiled awkwardly and waved his hand, saying that he was not good enough.

After following Gao Han for more than a year, he has indeed learned a lot and benefited him a lot. But if you want to teach alone, he is really not sure. He always feels that he has not learned enough yet and is far from enough.

Players just do their own good, but coaching a team must not only be themselves, but also know how to teach others to be themselves.

The latter is undoubtedly more difficult.

…………

…………

What surprised Gao Han was that after the game, many players from Dynamo Zagreb took the initiative to go over to exchange jerseys with Paris Saint-Germain players, and many ran to the coach's seat to ask Gao Han and Zidane for autographs.

Kovacic and Kalilovic are two of them.

Gao Han also admires these two players very much, especially Kovacic.

He is not tall, but quite strong, and at the age of eighteen gives people the impression of being a mature person.

Even though Gao Han never commented on other teams easily on weekdays, he couldn't help but see Kovacic. While no one around was paying attention, he smiled and encouraged Kovacic, affirming his performance in this game.

"Mentality is very important. I think when the scene is at a disadvantage, you are not calm enough and play a little messy. You have to know that you are the main midfielder of the team. If you are in chaos, others will follow suit. This is very fatal."

Gao Han's evaluation made Kovacic nod humbly. He knew very well that many players in the world would like to say Gao Han to give them a few comments. If he could get it, it could be said to be a god-given opportunity. How could he resist?

"Thank you very much, Mr. Gao Han." Kovacic kept thanking, "I have noticed what you said, but your team is too fast to keep up with it at all. I was confused. I still couldn't figure it out clearly and didn't know what to do."

"Young players are like this. Take your time, think more and summarize more. As your experience accumulates and increases, you will be able to deal with various scenes more calmly, but the most important thing is to rely on personal efforts. To be honest, with your performance today, as long as you are willing to work hard, you will definitely become a star who is not inferior to Modric in time."

"Really?" Kovacic was surprised.

He knew that Modric was his goal and idol in the youth training camp. Modric was the midfielder discovered by Gao Han from Dynamo Zagreb. He also reused Modric in both Bayern Munich and Manchester City, making Croatian midfielder the top midfielder in Europe and a national treasure player in Croatia.

"I'm very sure." Gao Han nodded with a smile.

Kovacic was very happy to hear such comments and smiled from ear to ear, but soon he became solemn again.

"Mr. Gao Han, I don't know if I can ask you if I have a question?"

"you say?"

Kovacic looked around and found that no one was paying attention to the conversation between them, so he mustered up the courage, "Do you think I should leave Croatia and develop on a broader platform?"

Gao Han understood that a team was poaching him.

This is not surprising. If no one digs a player like Kovacic, that would be a strange thing.

"To be honest, with your current level and your characteristics, you will need to slowly explore your own way of playing football in the next few years. No one can help you with this kind of thing. Only when you figure it out is your own thing, and you can complete your transformation, but it takes time, patience and chances of playing."

"It is very difficult for a player to grow and mature. Every step is accompanied by challenges and crises. I think with your current strength, even if you go to the four major leagues, it may be difficult to get opportunities, so you might as well learn from Modric."

Modric stayed in Dynamo Zagreb until he was 22 years old before being poached by Gao Han to Bayern Munich. At that time, he was basically close to maturity. In Gao Han's view, Kovacic's talent was better and better than Modric, but leaving at the age of 18 was too risky.

Kovacic's next step is very important. If he steps on it, he can soar into the sky, but once he doesn't step on it, it is possible that he will never be defeated, just like when Rakitic joined Schalke Zero 4.

Modric and Rakitic, these two predecessors, are undoubtedly Kovacic's past lessons.

"Thank you for your tips, Mr. Gao Han." Kovacic thanked again, and then his face darkened, "But we can't help but have some things."

The last sentence touched Gao Han a little.
Chapter completed!
