043: The No. 1 head coach in the world in 2015
Not long after Crystal Palace arrived in Trondheim, Norway, their opponent Sevilla also arrived in Norway.
The hotels where the two teams stayed were about 10 kilometers apart.
As soon as Sevilla arrived at the hotel, their head coach Sampaoli was interviewed by media reporters.
Yes, Sevilla's head coach is Sampaoli now, not Tong Yi's enemy Emery. .??.
This guy Emery was really tricked by Tong Yi.
In Tong Yi's memory of his previous life, Emery was truly the king of the Europa League. He led his team to win the Europa League four times, and even achieved three consecutive Europa League titles in the three seasons of 2013 and 2016. . He then led Villarreal to win the Europa League for the fourth time with an unbeaten record in the 20202021 season.
But in this world, Emery was really unlucky to meet Tong Yi.
The Europa League titles that Emery should have led in the 2013, 2014 and 2014-2015 seasons were all taken away by Crystal Palace led by Tong Yi. Tong Yi also became the coach who won the Europa League three times and became a veritable Europa League. King of Cups.
Moreover, in the 2013-2014 Europa League semi-finals, the Crystal Palace led by Tong Yi eliminated Emery's Sevilla with a total score of 4 to 3; in the 2014-2015 Europa League semi-finals, the Crystal Palace led by Tong Yi even more It was the total score of 8-0 that massacred Sevilla, causing Emery to lose the chance to advance to the Europa League finals for two consecutive years, thus losing two championships!
Both championships were taken away by Tong Yi.
Last season, Tong Yi went to compete in the Champions League and won the Champions League championship. Emery was free and led Sevilla to a Europa League title!
This gave Emery a consolation prize!
After winning this championship, Emery was spotted by Paris Saint-Germain. At the end of June this year, he joined Paris Saint-Germain and became the head coach of the French giants.
As soon as Emery left, Sevilla brought in Argentinian coach Jorge Sampaoli to take over.
Although Sampaoli has not coached in Europe before, his coaching resume in South America is still very brilliant. He once led the team to win the Chilean domestic league championship for three consecutive years and led the team to win the South American Libertadores Cup. He then coached the Chilean national team, leading the team to the World Cup in an unfavorable situation, and led the team to win the America's Cup last year.
Sampaoli was named the 2015 National Team Coach of the Year at the International Federation of Football History and Statistics selection at the beginning of this year. And together with Tong Yi of Crystal Palace and Enrique of Barcelona, he became the top three head coaches of the year selected by FIFA!
That's why Sevilla recruited Sampaoli to replace Emery so quickly at this time!
Because there are many rich and powerful families chasing Sampaoli at this time. If Sevilla is not quick, he will
They can't beat Sampaoli either!
Although the departure of Emery made Sevilla fans unhappy, they are still very happy to be able to bring in Sampaoli to replace Emery. They feel that Sampaoli is the perfect successor to Emery. Or, after all, they defeated Sampaoli who won by many giants.
Therefore, at this time, Sevilla fans still support Sampaoli.
Of course, Sampaoli himself is also very confident!
Facing questions from media reporters, Sampaoli said directly, "Tong Yi? Although I am far away in South America, I still survived his name. He is the best head coach in world football recently. His leadership The results are beyond the reach of many people, and they are also what I pursue. He is very powerful, very powerful!" Sampaoli expressed his truest thoughts.
At this time, a reporter asked, "Since you think Huaxia Tong is so powerful, don't you have the confidence to defeat the Crystal Palace led by Huaxia Tong?"
Sampaoli smiled slightly and said, "Have I said this? Do I mean this? Your ability to understand is worrying. How can you be a good reporter like this? Young man, your job prospects are worrying!"
Suddenly, all the colleagues around him looked at this little guy jokingly, as if they were watching a joke!
This made the young reporter very embarrassed!
Sampaoli continued, "Tong Yi is very strong, and there are many very strong head coaches in the world. Will we definitely lose when we meet a strong head coach? And I also feel that I am quite good. And Tong Yi If we meet other teams, I don’t think my team will have a chance?”
The media reporters all saw that Sampaoli was really confident!
Moreover, his confidence is neither exaggerated nor offensive at all.
At least that's how these media reporters feel.
When asked, Sampaoli also said, "Of course, Crystal Palace is very strong. Although they left a lot of players this summer, I also watched their Community Shield match against Manchester United and their strength has not declined. After all, their starting lineup is also very strong. He is a big threat to our Sevilla, and we must deal with it carefully to almost win!"
Yes, Sampaoli said that the opponent is very strong, but as long as they are careful, they can win!
This makes Sevilla fans very satisfied.
After all, this game is a revenge battle for Sevilla!
Now in the eyes of Sevilla fans, Crystal Palace is their mortal enemy!
If at first if not
It was Crystal Palace who eliminated them in the Europa League semi-finals for two consecutive seasons. Their Sevilla can win the Europa League for three consecutive years. Their Sevilla will create a feat that will shock and envy people all over the world. .
It's all damn Tong Yi and Crystal Palace's fault!
To this day, they still remember that in the Europa League semi-finals in those two years, they played against Crystal Palace four times. They achieved one win and three losses, scoring 3 goals and conceding 12 goals.
In this game, we Sevilla must win!
We want revenge!
We in Sevilla must step on the corpse of Crystal Palace and win the European Super Cup in front of Crystal Palace and Tong Yi!
Long live Sevilla!
Now Sevilla fans are waiting, they hope Sampaoli can lead the team to defeat Crystal Palace.
Sampaoli also said to reporters, "Of course, I know Crystal Palace very well now. We have collected a lot of information about them, including documents and videos. We have studied them in detail. To be honest, I think we Seville Asia has a good chance. As long as our Sevilla players are in good condition and show our due strength, we, Sevilla, will win this game!"
Everyone can see that Sampaoli is really very confident.
This also infected the Sevilla fans. The Sevilla fans were full of confidence in this game, and they even couldn't wait!
And Tong Yi also saw Sampaoli's interview for the first time.
After seeing these interviews, Tong Yi smiled slightly.
There is a reason for Sampaoli's confidence. He has been very successful in South America in the past few years, which has developed his confidence. But after all, this is his first time coaching in Europe. This guy is still a little overconfident, or he underestimates the European leagues. If Tong Yi remembers correctly, Sampaoli only coached in Sevilla for one season, and the results of his team were barely acceptable. They only finished fourth in the league and retained their qualification for the Champions League play-offs, the Copa del Rey and the European Championship. The results in the league are not ideal!
Although he was not fired by Sevilla, but he wanted to coach the Argentine national team and broke up with Sevilla peacefully. However, he did play a less than successful season in Sevilla. After all, he was still much worse than Emery.
However, this is his first time coaching in Europe, and his results are actually pretty good.
If he is given some more events, he may not be able to be like Emery.
Therefore, after seeing Sampaoli's interview, Tong Yi smiled slightly. Sampaoli underestimated their Crystal Palace.
However, this is a good thing for Crystal Palace!
Tong Yi also accepted interviews from media reporters.
Interviewed, he said, "Of course, Sampaoli is a very good head coach. In recent years, he has simply been the king of South America. He has no rivals in South America. He is very good. He was even the head coach of the national team around the world last year. The king among them, he is a very powerful guy. Coming to Sevilla, Sevilla's strength will definitely be greatly improved, which is not a good thing for our Crystal Palace!"
Well, Tong Yi is going to praise and kill Sangpaoli!
The media reporters all showed embarrassed expressions. Isn't your goal too obvious for the Chinese soft rice man, and your methods are a bit too bad and direct? Do you think Sampaoli will be fooled by this?
Tong Yi ignored these and continued, "To be honest, Sampaoli is really good, his tactics are also very good, and his personal coaching is also very passionate. The team he led played well offensively, which is very important for Serbia." It’s really a good thing for Villa. Sevilla’s offensive power has definitely improved significantly, which is a lot of pressure for us at Crystal Palace!”
The media reporters at the scene were speechless!
Isn't it too obvious that you, a Chinese soft rice man, are flattering you?
Tong Yi also said, "Although Emery's departure has a great impact on Sevilla, I don't think Sevilla fans are worried about their team at all. Because they know very well that their The new head coach Sampaoli is no worse than Emery, maybe they also think Sampaoli will lead them Sevilla to achieve better results!"
Not to mention, quite a few Sevilla fans really think so.
To be honest, at this time, the media reporters couldn't stand it anymore and changed the topic one after another to prevent Tong Yi from praising Sampaoli again.
Facing questions from media reporters, Tong Yi said directly, "The current situation of our team is still good, but you also know that we just played a very high-intensity game two days ago and experienced a long-distance flight. , my players are very tired. If we encounter a team as strong as Sevilla, my players may have some physical problems in this game and become passive. Therefore, in this game , our Crystal Palace will most likely lose!”
The media reporters were speechless. Tongyi, you underestimated Sangpaoli too much. With your behavior like this, would Sangpaoli not be able to see your purpose?
Tong Yi continued, "So, in the game against Sevilla, my side will definitely have to make some rotations. In fact, I don't know how this game will turn out in the end. What will happen in this game?" The result is not important to me or my players, the important thing is to find the game status as soon as possible, after all, the new Premier League season is about to start!"
The reporters in the media covered their foreheads and shook their heads. This guy Tong Yi is showing weakness to the enemy too obviously. Do you think Seville people will become proud and look down on you?
Chinese soft-boiled man, you really look down on others!
