Chapter 10 Contradiction ()

March 26, 2000, Lopela Stadium!

The highly-watched "Dutch coach's derby" in this round will be held here.

In the locker room before the game, Hiddink had already won the starting lineup for Barcelona.

After seeing this starting lineup, he was delighted because the captain of Barcelona, ​​Guardiola, the team's brain, did not appear in the starting lineup, and even the name Guardiola did not appear in the roster.

It seems that the news that the media reported before the game about Guardiola's injury is indeed true!

Hiddink, who coached his arch rival Real Madrid last season, knew very well the importance of Guardiola to Barcelona.

Although there is still a young midfielder Xavi in ​​Barcelona's lineup called "Guardiola's successor", Hiddink and his assistants do not think Xavi can completely replace Guardiola's position.

"We have already got the news that Guardiola will miss this game due to injury. Therefore, I think Van Gaal will focus his offense on both sides today. Figo and Rivaldo are both world-class stars. If we can limit these two people today, our defense will be at least half successful!"

"Of course, Cruivet in the penalty area is also very threatening. I used to be his coach in the national team. Although he often has his condition due to personal life problems, it will be very bad if we are not lucky and when he is in good condition, it will be very bad. Because he is in excellent condition, he is almost omnipotent. Felipe, Vader, you two want to give me 100% concentration today. Be optimistic about him and don't let him get the chance to get the ball and shoot calmly."

"We should also be careful about Enrique in the midfield. He has a strong ability to score in and out. His position is very erratic, not only limited to outside the penalty area, but sometimes he will suddenly come to the penalty area. Miroslav, you should pay more attention to him today."

Tang Feng passed every word of Hiddink's instructions to the players seriously.

After Hiddink arranged the tactics, Tang Feng vaguely felt something was wrong.

It was not until he saw Harvey's name on the tactical board that had been painted in a mess by Hiddink that he suddenly understood it.

It turned out that although Hiddink's tactical arrangement just now was very detailed, he even arranged in detail to assist the opponent's two full-backs, but he did not pay attention to Xavi.

In fact, this cannot be entirely blamed on Hiddink. Although Xavi is now well-known in the La Liga and is known as the "Successor of Guardiola", since the captain Guardiola has long occupied a main position, this also makes Xavi's performance time limited.

Hiddink once made detailed research on Guardiola when he coached Real Madrid, but his understanding of Xavi is limited. In his impression, Xavi should be considered a cultivation of Guardiola's model in La Macia's youth training camp.

However, both physically and consciously, it is obviously more than a little bit worse.

Look, Xavi, who had been promoted to the first team, was arranged to return to the B team in the first half of the season. It was not until Guardiola was injured in the second half of the season that he was urgently recalled to the first team.

It is normal for Hiddink to not understand that Harvey, a young player who has just debuted.

But as a time traveler, Tang Feng knew Harvey's threat well.

This guy is the top "midfielder" in the world football future. If the team really underestimates him, they will definitely suffer a loss.

Thinking of this, Tang Feng walked to Hiddink and said, "Mr. Hiddink, I think your tactical arrangement just now may be a bit missed. You did not make targeted arrangements for the opponent's Harvey just now. As far as I know, his passing and assisting ability is very threatening!"

Since the players were about to enter the court, Tang Feng did not drag on the ground, but went straight to the point.

After hearing Tang Feng's words, Hiddink had not reacted yet, but the several assistant coaches around him looked at Tang Feng's eyes but were not very friendly.

Obviously, they are very dissatisfied with the translator's performance of "pointing fingers" with the team's tactics again and again.

Pim, who had some objections to Tang Feng in the Valencia game last time, finally couldn't help but speak: "Chinese boy, I hope you understand your identity. You are just an interpreter, not a coach or an assistant coach. Hus has reached an agreement with the Chairman before he agreed to coach the team, that is, no one in the club is allowed to point fingers at his tactics. Because what he hates the most is that laymen like you are smart!"

Pim is the executive coach of Hiddink's coaching team and can be regarded as Hiddink's number one assistant. From his words, it seems that every word he says is speaking to him from Hiddink's perspective. But in fact, it is criticizing Tang Feng's overpowering behavior.

After hearing Pim's words, Hiddink frowned slightly. Obviously, he thought his assistant's words were a bit ugly. After all, Tang Feng and they are also collaborators, so it is better not to make the relationship too stiff.

However, Pim's words also came to his heart, because what he disliked the most was that others pointed at his tactics. Especially those laymen who didn't know how to pretend to understand. Although Tang Feng always made suggestions to him, he seemed to be quite correct. Especially in the last game against Valencia, Tang Feng proposed to replace Oli, which even achieved miraculous results, almost helping the team equalize the score at the last moment.

However, as a world-class coach, Hiddink also has his own pride. When the team was in trouble, he failed to make any changes. Instead, a translator stood up and told him what to do. This is an unacceptable fact in the proud Hiddink's heart.

Therefore, he did not speak at this time, but was waiting for Tang Feng's answer.

"Mr. Pim, I am also a person with an international football coaching certificate, so strictly speaking, I am not an outsider!" Tang Feng felt aggrieved after hearing Pim's sarcasm. However, he still held back his anger and replied in a plain tone.

Who knew that after hearing Tang Feng's words, Pim seemed to hear a very funny joke and laughed very ungracefully.

"Do you think that if you get this certificate, you can become a qualified coach? If this is the case, the position of coaching is too valuable! Moreover, I heard that what you Chinese are best at is studying. Isn't the things you like to take the certificate exam the same as what you are best at? But football is not a study! Chinese boy, before you accumulate enough coaching experience, you'd better be more humble!" After Pim smiled, he did not forget to take out his senior attitude to teach Tang Fengdao a lesson.

Experience! Experience!

Before Zhuge Liang came out of the mountain, he never brought soldiers. Why do I have to have experience?

This sentence is the emotion that Tang Feng expressed when he just graduated from university and went out to find a job. He faced the requirement of "having x years of work experience" in each unit.

He originally thought that in a more advanced Europe, he would not pay attention to qualifications and rank as many seniority as in China.

But obviously, he got it wrong!

After being taught by Pim this lesson, Tang Feng's anger suddenly emerged.

Just as he was about to fight back, Hiddink, who was beside him, spoke: "Okay, stop arguing, the game is about to begin, we are going to play!"

Hiddink's words showed his attitude very directly. That is, he neither recognized Tang Feng's approach to correcting his tactics privately, but he did not want the coaching staff members to have a quarrel with Tang Feng too much.

Sure enough, at this time, the staff of the stadium also came in to urge the players to come on the court.

The players naturally noticed the quarrels in the coaching staff just now. However, most of them didn't know what they were talking about.

Although many of them were burning with gossip, hoping to know what was going on. But at this time, they could only walk out of the locker room honestly and prepare to make a game.

The movement of the players walking out of the locker room also slightly dissipated.

"Let's go to the stadium too!" Hiddink said this and followed the player toward the locker room.

Pim looked at Tang Feng provocatively, and then followed Hiddink.

Tang Feng could only follow them honestly out of the locker room. There was no way, his job required him to stay by Hiddink's side.

He just kindly made a suggestion, but was sarcastic by that damn Pim. Tang Feng could have a full breath. At this time, he was looking forward to Harvey being able to perform well in the game!
