Chapter 435 Paris will not win the Champions League in the future!

Intermission.

There was dead silence in the home team's dressing room at the Parc des Princes in Paris.

All the players sat quietly in their seats, looking at each other blankly.

To be scored by a team like Chelsea at the end of the first half is undoubtedly a huge blow to all Paris Saint-Germain players.

So, what to do now?

At this time, the locker room door opened, and head coach Blank walked in with assistant coach Kamara and others.

Everyone immediately looked at the head coach in unison. They understood that the coaching staff should have discussed the tactics for the second half.

"Unfortunately, we conceded the goal in the last moments of the first half, which made us have to change the game plan."

Blank looked at the player resolutely and said.

Every player present was not surprised, and even this decision was within their expectations.

After all, the news that Paris Saint-Germain executives demanded that Blank must beat Chelsea and at least break into the semi-finals of the Champions League has already spread among the players.

And now they are behind by one goal at home, if they don't press out to attack at this time, how can they win?
If you can't win at home, how can you go to Stamford Bridge, the most terrifying home of the devil in Europe, to score points?
You know, this season, Chelsea's record at Stamford Bridge is-all victories!
I am afraid that Paris Saint-Germain's home record today will determine whether the team can continue to move forward, and whether Blanc can continue to stay in Paris to coach.

"Our formation in the second half will be changed to 4-3-3, attacking with three forwards."

Blank continued: "We may not be able to take advantage of the positional battle, so we need to play speed on the front line."

"So, I'm sorry, Zlatan, I also need to make adjustments on the front line." Said, Blank looked at Zlatan Ibrahimovic.

Ibrahimovic was a little surprised, he didn't expect to be replaced by himself.

In the first half, his performance wasn't particularly good, but at least it wasn't bad.

This is also because the 4-4-2 formation used by Blanc today has too little support for the striker, and he does not have many opportunities to get the ball.

In terms of poor performance, Motta, who directly caused the loss of the ball, should be ranked first.

But now, Blank says he wants to increase the speed of the striker and replace himself?
Ibrahimovic didn't speak, just snorted, got up and walked to the washing room at the back, ready to take a shower and change clothes.

Although he has a bad temper, he is also a person who cares about the overall situation, so he will not directly get angry at the coach in the locker room.

He just felt that this Blank was really not very good at getting ready for the battle, and he was far worse than that Pan Yi next door!
If the team falls behind in the first half, Pan Yi will clearly analyze the advantages and disadvantages of both sides' tactics, and then tell the players the specific adjustments, why should you be replaced, why should he be replaced...

In short, everyone is obedient.

And this Blank just said "increase the speed", I, Ibrahimovic, can't run! ! !
For Blank, of course he knows that if Ibrahimovic is replaced so early, the opponent will definitely have opinions.

But he can't help it, he can't protect himself!

After researching with the assistant coach, I really feel that although the four midfielders can restrain Chelsea's offense, it also has a great impact on my own offense.

If you want to reverse the situation in the second half, you must modify your tactics.

The power of the midfield will be weakened with the cancellation of the four midfielders, so more often Paris Saint-Germain may still have to use their speed to fight Chelsea's counterattack.

At this time, Ibrahimovic, who is relatively slow among the forwards, can only be sacrificed.

Although I'm not sure, I can only try it out.

Moreover, Ibrahimovic's recent contract renewal negotiations with the team have not gone smoothly. He seems to have decided to leave Paris Saint-Germain after the end of this season.

It is said that Manchester United has been in contact with the Swedish striker and wants to bring him to Old Trafford next season.

In other words, both he and Ibrahimovic may not be able to stay in Paris for long, even if they offend the boss in the locker room, it doesn't matter.

"Ravic, you go up in the second half, playing left winger."

Lavitch stood up eagerly and nodded emphatically.

He's the speedy lineman Blank needs.

Then Blanc made corresponding adjustments to the midfield.

Di Maria's position has been raised from the midfield to the right winger, while Cavani is still in the center.

For the three midfielders behind, Motta is still dragging behind, while Verratti and Matuidi are in front of him, standing in an inverted triangle.

This is a standard 4-3-3 formation. Blanc hopes that with this change, he must break Chelsea's goal in the second half! ——
"A one-goal lead is never enough, we all know that."

In the locker room of the visiting team, Pan Yi was also adjusting the midfield.

When he said this, he smiled slightly: "So, we have to strive for a few more points and resolve the battle in the first round."

The players and coaches in the locker room all nodded.

To take the lead late in the first half was very beneficial for Chelsea.

With this goal in hand, Paris Saint-Germain was completely passive.

They have no way to continue to focus on solid defense as they did in the first half, but they have to press out to play offense.

In this case, the space on the field will become larger, and Chelsea's smooth cooperation and quick counterattack will be brought into full play.

At this time, Pan Yi also walked among the players, looking very calm and calm, with a sure chance of winning:
"They may change their formation to strengthen their offense, and they may also find the rhythm of the new formation at the beginning of the second half;"

"So let's not be in a hurry, and stay the same. We just wait for them to press out, and then find the loopholes in their defense and fight their counterattack."

"Of course we don't need to shrink too far, we still have to fight harder in the midfield! This is our good opportunity, let us score more goals and defeat them directly!"

"Let those little bastards who set off fireworks early this morning see that those fireworks are actually a celebration salute prepared in advance for our victory! Haha!"

Everyone laughed and clapped.

Indeed, everyone was holding a sigh of relief about the incident in the morning.

Now that I have the opportunity to slap my opponent hard, why don't I let it out?

"I promise, after winning today, I will treat you to a good meal when I return to London!"

As soon as Pan Yi said this, the players all cheered and jumped for joy.

Regardless of the fact that each of these people earns a weekly salary ranging from tens of thousands to 10,000+ per week, when they hear that someone treats them to dinner, they still react in the same way as ordinary people.

"Where are you going to eat, boss? It won't be a ramen restaurant, right?" Harry Kane asked a little "worried".

As an old-fashioned Englishman, he has always been accustomed to eating his British "food", and he is not used to Chinese food.

"Of course, we must have a good meal." Pan Yi suddenly pointed at David Louis, "Let's go to David's restaurant!"

So, with a cheer from Kanter, David Luiz fell into a moan of pain...
-
"The second half restarted, and players from both teams returned to the court one after another."

"Judging from the players played by the two teams, Paris Saint-Germain made a substitution adjustment, replacing Zlatan Ibrahimovic with Lavezzi."

“这应该是布兰克的调整，要从上半场的4-4-2变成了巴黎圣日耳曼所常用的4-3-3阵型，进一步加强球队的进攻。”

"This kind of adjustment cannot be said to be a complete failure of 4-4-2. After all, this formation still restricted Chelsea's midfield performance in the first half."

"But the problem is that now Paris Saint-Germain is one goal behind at home. Therefore, it is only natural for Blanc to make such an adjustment."

"It's just that Blank's decision to let Ibrahimovic only play half-court is still very bold."

"From here we can also guess whether it is because Blanc feels that his time in Paris Saint-Germain is running out... so he is not shy about having conflicts with the leaders in the locker room."

"As for Chelsea, Pan Yi did not make any adjustments."

"Let's see how they deal with Blank's new trick in the second half!"

With the whistle of the referee, the game started again.

On Chelsea's side, all the players were very clear about Pan Yi's instructions and executed them well.

They didn't try to attack after the opening, but patiently organized defense in their own half.

But their defense is different from ordinary defensive counterattacks.

When Paris Saint-Germain passed the ball into Chelsea's half for the first time, the Chelsea players pressed forward together. Through meticulous pressing and pressing, Paris Saint-Germain's pass failed and they had to pass back to the defense. Looking for a good opportunity.

In other words, Chelsea's defense does not rely on the retreat of the formation to compress the opponent's space;
Instead, through the fast running of the players and active fighting, the time and space for Paris Saint-Germain players to pass and receive the ball are reduced, which makes it easy to cause mistakes to regain the ball.

Therefore, Paris Saint-Germain can only rely on a few long passes to find the space in Chelsea's backcourt.

In the 57th minute, after returning to the center line to get the ball, Verratti picked a pass into Chelsea's 30-meter area to find center forward Cavani.

The Uruguayan sharp striker did grab the first landing point and got stuck, but when he stopped the ball, he stopped slightly. David Luiz behind him made a decisive clearance and directly resolved Paris Saint-Germain's attack.

Seeing that there was no chance in the middle, Verratti immediately transferred the ball to the side.

Lavezzi, who came off the bench, got the ball from the left and entered the Chelsea half. In a one-on-one situation, after throwing away Azpilicueta with speed, he passed into the penalty area with a big foot, but no one responded. Ertois took it off easily.

After the opponent's two attacks, Chelsea began to increase their defense and pressing in the midfield.

When playing 4-4-2 in the first half, Paris Saint-Germain's four midfielders were more or less able to suppress Chelsea's three midfielders;

But now it's three-on-three, and Chelsea's two wingbacks come to support from time to time.

Although Matuidi, including Verratti, are players with relatively strong running ability, they can't stand up to the opponent's stronger ability and more people!
He also gradually fell behind in the midfield fight.

"They had a lot more pass turnovers than they did in the first half."

Pan Yi stood on the sidelines and said.

"Should we seize the opportunity to press?" Arteta asked at the right time.

In fact, Chelsea's own state is not particularly good, just look at the performance of the players on the court.

Under normal circumstances, when Chelsea have the advantage, the number of shots will be more.

But today, at this time of the game, Chelsea have only had five or six shots in total, and none of them are particularly threatening.

If it hadn't been for seizing a corner kick, it would be hard to say whether the deadlock could be broken.

In fact, this was more or less affected by the farce in the early morning.

Even though Pan Yi and the coaching staff tried their best to reduce this impact, the players still couldn't reach their best competitive state, which resulted in a bit of a discount on their performance on the court.

However, even so, the young Chelsea can still suppress Paris Saint-Germain on the court through more running and more physical fitness.

Therefore, Arteta feels that now he can take advantage of the opportunity of the opponent's increased mistakes to further strengthen the oppression, which almost means to fullen the rhythm of the game.

"No need." Pan Yi smiled lightly.

"You have to remember that the most taboo thing about playing pass control is not not being unable to grab the ball, but losing it quickly after grabbing the ball."

"This not only makes the players' physical energy consumption more serious, but also severely damages the players' fighting spirit and morale."

"Our current physical strength is superior, and the scene is also superior. If we increase our own mistakes because of blindly improving the rhythm, the loss outweighs the gain."

"I think it's the right tempo right now. You'll see, we'll catch their mistakes."

Pan Yi is very confident.

In fact, from the corner goal in the first half to the second half, this game has been under his control.

None of Blanc's formations escaped from his grasp!
The current situation on the field also proves this point.

Facts have proved that Pan Yi's judgment is correct.

When the game progressed to the 65th minute, Chelsea intercepted the ball in the middle and Kante passed the ball to the frontcourt to Hazard.

After Hazard took the ball to attract the attention of the defense, he slammed his heel and knocked the ball to the left near the sideline.

At this time, the left wingback Marcos Alonso plugged in from behind at the fastest speed, and after receiving the ball, he rushed to the bottom line.

Then, before the Paris Saint-Germain players came to block, he made a low pass from the left!

And Harry Kane, who had been ambushing in the middle, quickly followed up. Before the two central defenders of Paris Saint-Germain at the front of the small penalty area, he shot and scored, 0:2!

The whole goal was played so quickly that Paris Saint-Germain's defense didn't even have time to react, and it was torn apart by Chelsea's counterattack. By the time they returned to defense, the goal had already been scored.

This goal can almost be said to have completely destroyed the confidence of the Paris Saint-Germain players.

At home, two goals behind Chelsea!
And what makes them even more desperate is that although they tried hard to stop the decline in the subsequent games, Chelsea did not give them any chance.

On the contrary, Chelsea has always been in control of the game, and has played its own advantages in pass control, launching effective attacks again and again.

Seeing this, Blank quickly made another substitution adjustment.

He replaced Van der Veer, who was sluggish, with Aurier, and Maxwell, who was a little immobile, with Kurzawa.

This is to replace the two starting full-backs!

This was clearly a move to strengthen the defense, much to the displeasure of Paris Saint-Germain fans.

And Nasser and others in the chairman's stand left even more angrily.

At this point in the game, there is no hope of Paris Saint-Germain winning at all.

But Blanc felt bitter.

Why didn't he know to step up his offense?

But the problem is that now his two full-backs have been turned into dogs. If he doesn't adjust, it may be a tragedy.

If you lose the ball again, no matter how hard you work, it will be futile!
However, Pan Yi quickly responded to Blanc's adjustment.

He replaced MT Lukaku, who has been fighting injuries in front today, with Mbappé.

This is equivalent to replacing a strong fighter with an agile assassin, and by the way, it can also make Paris Saint-Germain's rumored target cause them a billion points of damage.

Sure enough, in the 80th minute, Chelsea once again made a sharp counterattack.

After Mbappe received a long pass from seat B on the left, relying on his tyrannical personal ability, he used his speed to throw off Verratti's defense.

Poor Verratti kept pulling and dragging, and finally dragged behind Mbappé, and failed to stop the French teenager's advance.

In the end, Mbappe exploded again, directly past Aurier, who came to defend, and then shot a burst, piercing Paris Saint-Germain's goal again!
0: 3!

The game has completely lost its suspense.
-
When the referee blew his whistle to end the game, the score on the scoreboard was also fixed at 0:3.

But after the game, an accident happened.

That is Paris Saint-Germain coach Blanc, who did not come to the post-match press conference.

And it's not just him, Paris Saint-Germain didn't even have a representative.

Not only Pan Yi, everyone at the press conference was surprised by this sudden change, and they all realized that the problem seemed to be very serious, with some ominous premonitions.
-
Half an hour ago.

The home team's locker room.

All the Paris Saint-Germain players stared blankly at Chairman Nasser who walked in, and most of them had expressions of disbelief on their faces.

Because the chairman rarely comes in after a game, especially after a loss.

He came in today, there must be something important...

The locker room became completely silent, and many people didn't even dare to vent their breath, just looking at Nasser like this.

Then Nasser said loudly: "I'm sorry everyone, I need to announce something immediately."

Hearing this sentence, everyone realized what was going on.

Captain Thiago Silva was the first to stand up: "Mr. Chairman, as the captain of the team, I think this is not a good time."

"I think so too." Ibrahimovic also stood up.

Obviously, they all knew exactly what was going to happen, that is, Nasser wanted to fire Blank on the spot!

Although Ibrahimovic feels that Blank's level is average, this does not prevent him from thinking about the interests of the team.

Fengxian is a guy with clear grievances and grievances. Now he is also the vice-captain of Paris Saint-Germain and the most important leader in the locker room, so he needs to come out and make a statement.

But Blank smiled slightly, nodded and said, "It's okay, Mr. Chairman, just tell me."

"Both the boss and the board of directors are very grateful to Mr. Blank for his contributions and achievements over the past two years, especially for bringing us four domestic championships..."

Nasser paused when he said this.

Everyone knows that he is going to start saying "but".

really.

"However, unfortunately, the team's performance in the Champions League this season fell far short of expectations."

"Especially in this past game, both the boss and the management believe that someone must take responsibility for the team's sluggish performance."

"Moreover, the team must also make timely changes and adjustments before the second round."

"So ... now is the right time to make a change."

"The owners and management have unanimously decided that, from now on, Mr Blank will no longer be the head coach of the team."

Although everyone in the locker room was mentally prepared, when the news of Blank's dismissal came from Nasser himself, everyone was still a little dumbfounded.

This is because it is hard to say whether this is a correct decision, after all Blanc did lose three goals at home;

However, this is definitely an absurd behavior!

A few minutes after the game, in the locker room, in front of all the players, mercilessly announcing the head coach's dismissal is a great shame for anyone.

This is not only a shame for Blanc, but also a shame for professional coaches in Europe!

I'm afraid that very few people could listen to all of Nasser's speech completely, but after he finished speaking, the corners of Blank's mouth twitched, as if he wanted to say something, but he couldn't say anything.

Finally, Blank turned around, glanced at the players in the locker room, left a very bitter smile, and a simple sentence:

"It's a pleasure to spend this time with everyone, I wish you all good luck, goodbye."

Obviously, he has accepted his fate.

In other words, he had already guessed this moment, but he just didn't expect it to come so soon.

After watching Blank leave, Ibrahimovic said to Nasser in a deep voice: "You may regret it if you do this."

And Thiago Silva also stared at Nasser bitterly, and didn't look back for a long time.

In fact, it was not a particularly unexpected thing to fire Blank.

Isn't it as common for professional coaches to go to and from get out of class as drinking water?This is especially true for clubs like Paris Saint-Germain that have strict requirements for results.

But the problem is, there needs to be a minimum of respect.

Just like what Pan Yi said before the game, Blanc is a star of the French national team and has also won the championship for Paris Saint-Germain. Shouldn't he show the opponent a little respect and save the opponent a little face?
Does it have to be so stiff?

Why must he dismiss get out of class in front of everyone?
Wait until I go back tonight, and find time tomorrow to have a good chat, can't we all get together and relax?
In fact, most European professional footballers fire a head coach in the same way: either call him privately, or contact him through an agent, and then announce it through the official website, there is no problem .

But now the two sides have completely torn their skins. Although Blanc has been disgraced, why not Paris Saint-Germain itself?

Looking at his captain and vice-captain, as well as the gazes of many players in the locker room, Nasser knew he was wrong, so he turned around and walked out of the locker room without saying anything.

He also faintly felt that his operation in anger seemed a bit wrong.

Today, Paris Saint-Germain can treat Blanc like this, but what about tomorrow?
It's easy to let out this breath, but what will be the status of Paris Saint-Germain in the minds of the head coaches of the entire European football?
Even the club's players, how would they think of the club's approach?

Sure enough, when the news spread quickly to the press conference hall, which was waiting for the Parisians to appear, the hall immediately exploded.

Pan Yi, who was sitting in front of the stage, received questions that had nothing to do with the game just now. They were all about Blank's rapid firing.

And Pan Yi also blasted unceremoniously:
"They never really respected football and never followed its rules!"

"They have money and capital, but that doesn't mean they can own everything or despise everything."

"All I can say is, they're going to pay for it."

"They may still use high salaries and super high transfer fees to buy superstars and invite excellent coaches, but this club will no longer have cohesion. Everyone comes here just for money."

"And such a club will not be successful. I dare say that in the next ten years, if they do not make any changes, they will still miss the Champions League championship!"
