On the evening of March 10, Allianz Stadium in Munich.

Because of the resignation storm two weeks ago, this game attracted the attention of fans all over the world from the beginning.

After firing Rijcard, Chelsea's acting coach Wilkins, who was originally appointed, suddenly resigned, resulting in the absence of a Blues coach. In the end, he had to promote a head coach from the youth team to temporarily serve as head coach.

Fortunately, the Blues' opponents in both rounds of the game were not strong, and they all had a small victory with one goal.

But this away game challenge to Bayern Munich was a real test.

Gao Han didn't seem to be planning to leave Chelsea this time. With the away game winning three-to-zero and already determined to advance early, the Bundesliga giants launched a fierce attack on Chelsea from the first minute.

Bayern Munich's fierce offensive made Chelsea feel overwhelmed. Ashley Cole accidentally fell and sprained his leg while defending Robben in the twelfth minute, and was forced to get out.

The previous coach change storm, coupled with the loss of the general at the beginning of the game, Chelsea could not resist the coach in front of Bayern Munich, who was like a wolf, and the goal fell repeatedly from the 27th minute.

First, Aguero received assists from his teammates and took the lead in breaking Chelsea's goal. Then Ribery assisted Robben to score, further expanding the score and ending the first half with 2-0.

In the second half, Bayern Munich suddenly launched a fierce attack, Modric assisted Ribery to win another goal, expanding the score to 3-0. In the 65th minute, Ribery's assist was another, allowing Robben to score twice.

Bayern Munich's offensive was unstoppable, and Chelsea could not resist it at all. Even after leading by 4-0, Gao Han replaced three substitutes in one breath, and the situation on the court was still one-sided.

It is obvious that after experiencing the previous storm, the Blues had a severe morale decline.

Gao Han stood on the sidelines and watched the game silently.

He didn't know if Abramovich was watching this game, but he just wanted to use this game to tell the Russians that professional football is not something that can dominate everything with money.

At least, no matter how rich Chelsea is, don't expect to be able to compete in the Champions League this season.

Even, as long as he is Gao Han, he will do his best to snipe them Chelsea.

He said that he must do this for Rijkald or for his old revenge.

"Actually, this team is not as weak as imagined." Thomas Tuchel said with a sigh.

If we look at the lineup and the cards, Chelsea is actually not weak.

Abramovich's large investment in the past few years is actually valuable.

But the Blues' current problem is not the team's lineup and strength, but management.

Anyone who knows the Premier League knows that the problem Chelsea is facing now is the renewal and needs to inject new vitality into the team. Abramovich poached Rijkald to return to Chelsea's play from the strength of Mourinho's era, a more advanced pass-and-control style, and to the mainstream European style of play.

It should be said that this direction is correct.

But the question is, has the Chelsea management really signed in this direction?

We must not only renew and make a difference in the Champions League and the league; we must face competitors on the court, but also face pressure from management, put pressure on them at any time and give goals at any time. What is this?

Now, Rijkaard has been dismissed and he is now like this. Is there a famous coach in Chelsea who is willing to take over?

Any famous coach often cherishes his feathers, and no one will easily go to Chelsea's muddy waters.

"Sometimes, the reason for fans to evaluate a head coach is very simple. Look at the championship by looking at the results. If you have good results and many championships, you must be successful and the best."

After hearing Gao Han's words, Thomas Tuchel involuntarily nodded in agreement.

"But sometimes, the fans themselves are very conflicted. The same head coach, he played in this team, but when he went to another team, he suddenly became successful. Could it be that his strength has made rapid progress in a short period of time? Or did he not do his best in the previous team?"

"It may even happen that a very interesting scene. A head coach's performance was not ideal at the beginning and was criticized. He even wanted to fire him on the spot. But gradually, as the season deepened and his performance became better and better, all doubts and doubts disappeared."

This situation that Gao Han said is very common, and even many fans of wealthy teams are like this.

"More often, a team wants to achieve results, it often does not depend on the coach's coaching ability, or even not only on the overall strength of the players, but more importantly, the team can straighten out the relationship, unify goals, and work together to achieve invincible."

Gao Han doesn't mean that the ability of the head coach and the strength of the players are not important, but that he thinks whether the team is united is far more important than these two.

This obviously includes the club's management.

Just like the Galaxy battleship Real Madrid back then, are the players not strong enough? Is the head coach not outstanding enough? But in the end, what is the team's performance?

In the early years, Inter Milan, Morati invested so much money and introduced so many stars, but wasn't strong?

Famous coaches such as Lippi and Cooper are not very good at coaching?

But many times, why is the head coach always responsible for the consequences of poor performance?

The answer is very simple, there is only one, because the cost of changing a coach is the lowest.

Many people have forgotten a cruel reality, that is, clubs in European football are like a company, and as a company, they will definitely give priority to costs before making any decision.

Relatively speaking, the position of the management is often the most stable, and changing players is a way to move the whole body. It is useless to change only one. If you want to change, you have to change a batch. The cost is undoubtedly too high. Only by replacing the head coach is the lowest cost and the best effect.

Gao Han still clearly remembers that not long after he debuted, Ferguson told him that he must control the locker room and must not let the players shake the head coach's authority, otherwise the head coach would die miserably.

Gao Han always remembered this in his heart.

Many times, a team, from management to coaching staff to players, is not a one-hearted mind. Everyone has their own interests. Even in the locker room, the interests between players are completely different.

When either the management or the player has conflicts with the head coach, the club often makes the decision to fire the head coach for cost considerations. Therefore, if a head coach cannot control the locker room, it is basically impossible to succeed, and may even lose badly.

"After all, we are the real vulnerable group, but if even Chelsea did such a thing to Rijkaard, no one would be willing to stand up and speak, then what status will there be in the future?"

When Thomas Tuchel heard Gao Han's words, he suddenly raised his head, looking at Gao Han with a look of high mountains.

He suddenly remembered that Gao Han was the top coach among the current head coaches.

In the past few days, many people have suspected that Gao Han would speak out for Rijkald because of his old grudges. Some people think that he was because of his friendship with Rijkald, but now, Tuchel understands.

Perhaps, there are both reasons, but Gao Han will fight Chelsea in person, and because he is the number one coach in the world football world, he needs to speak out for the interests of the entire professional coaching industry and strive for the interests of the coaches.

After thinking about this layer, in Tuchel's mind, Gao Han's image suddenly became a little taller.
