"As for this match, I’m sure everyone can see that what we really care about is this..."
The Juventus head coach waved his notebook, even showing it to the camera to prove his point: "To better challenge for the Champions League and to maintain long-term dominance in the league, we’ve gone through a lot this summer, so there are still many things we need to adjust."
"I believe that once the adjustments are finished, Juventus will satisfy everyone!"
The gracious post-match interview of the Juventus head coach won the support of many fans and commentators.
Many thought this was the true "hallmark of a ruler."
Not contending over wins and losses in individual matches, because the focus is on the entire kingdom!
And they elegantly congratulated San Remo for winning the treble.
Their demeanor was impeccable.
But what these people don’t know is that after returning to the training base, the Juventus head coach was furious and berated all the players involved in the match.
Even Manzuyovich couldn’t escape, with the coach’s criticism being, "Even with the opposing Serie B midfield scoring two goals, why couldn’t you get a hat-trick?"
To this, Manzuyovich could only awkwardly smile.
Why do you ask?
Because as Juventus’ central forward, my annual salary is only two hundred twenty thousand euros, and apparently, I’ll be getting a pay cut next year!
Meanwhile, their midfielder Lu Yang’s annual salary is three million euros!
In comparison, I’ve already done work deserving of more than this salary, I’ve even got one more assist than Lu Yang, did you know?
In the following days, Juventus underwent extensive training.
Media captured images of the extra training sessions and praised Juventus for putting in overtime training for this season’s Champions League, truly reassuring and ambitious.
This made the players doing extra training feel quite embarrassed.
Do you really think preseason extra training is for the Champions League at the end of the season?
Come on, our head coach is simply furious because we lost the Italian Super Cup.
...
The same match, at the post-match press conference.
Sotu was on cloud nine.
As a head coach transitioning from being an AC Milan player, what’s the best part?
Of course, it’s beating Inter Milan and Juventus!
Reporter: "Sotu, you made a bold formation change in this match, playing a 3-5-2, why?"
Sotu: "I’ve studied 3-5-2 for a long time. I personally believe this will be San Remo’s better state, it can fully utilize our players’ strengths, such as..."
Sotu elaborated quite a bit.
Reporter: "Oh, then why switch back to 4-3-3 in the second half?"
Sotu: "MMP!"
Reporter: "What do you think of Canyes as a player?"
Sotu: "Canyes is an exceptionally excellent player, he has enormous potential and already possesses great skill. Signing him this season was San Remo’s most successful transfer deal."
Reporter: "Really? What about Bernulin?"
Sotu: "HMP!"
Reporter: "In this match, Lu Yang appeared on the right winger position, which became a turning point in changing the situation. Is this your new plan for Lu Yang?"
Sotu: "Yes, Lu Yang has unlimited possibilities, he will try more positions in the future. Utilizing a player’s strengths fully is what a head coach should do, there’s nothing remarkable about it, I’m only making adjustments that every excellent head coach should make."
Reporter: "But many people think that this has little to do with your tactical arrangements. We’ve noticed that Lu Yang made several non-tactical attempts while holding the ball in attack, is this also your arrangement?"
Sotu: "Don’t hold me back, I’ll beat you to death!"
Looking around, even though there were reporters everywhere, Sotu couldn’t see a single one truly supporting him.
He secretly vowed that this season, he would definitely make San Remo’s 3-5-2 formation a success.
Only then will his name appear in the roundup of various tactical masters.
