Messi was so scared that he cried when he maxed out his header talent at the start of the game

Chapter 655

London Olympic Stadium, post-match locker room.

"Hey!"

"Hey!!"

"Hey hey hey!"

The players formed a circle, clapping their hands to the beat, and Sun Jihai was performing his "unique skill" ostrich dance.

The atmosphere was joyful.

Su Fei was impressed that after his debut match after joining Manchester City, Old Sun also danced this dance to celebrate the victory against West Bromwich.

It seemed like yesterday after two years.

Many things are different.... but the joy of the first victory in the opening game of the new season is the same!

After Sun Jihai finished his performance, Knight rolled his eyes and started to make a noise.

"Hey! Karim! Mario!"

"What are you doing? Come on up!"

"We have a tradition that new players have to do a striptease after scoring a goal. Didn't the head coach tell you two?"

This sounded like a joke, but Knight put on an expression that couldn't be more serious.

The old players laughed, and they all looked at Benzema and Mandzukic in unison.

Benzema, who happened to be standing next to Su Fei, asked shyly in a low voice.

"Su... Is this true? Mr. Guardiola didn't tell me this..."

"Uh..."

Su Fei didn't like to tell lies, and hesitated.

Swish! Swish!

Mandzukic blushed, threw away his jersey, took off his shorts, came to the center of the locker room with his bare chest, and began to twist his body awkwardly.

Imagine a 1.9-meter-tall white man, high-definition, uncensored, live show...

You can see it.

The young air tyrant scored a goal today, and he was really happy, and he didn't think about the possibility that Knight was joking at all.

The locker room exploded, with whistles, laughter, and applause.

"Fuck, awesome!!"

"Hahahaha!"

"Mario!! Mario!"

"From now on, you will be the second strongest man in my heart, Mario!"

Even Su Fei was dumbfounded.

Worthy of being called "Da Zhuang", as the name suggests, he only plays with reality!

That was when.

After the post-match press conference, Guardiola, who pushed the door open, happened to see this passionate scene.

The young Spanish coach touched his bald head.

While no players noticed him yet, he quietly left the locker room.

Sometimes!

The head coach is not suitable to participate in the entertainment activities between the players.

I remember when I was in Barcelona, ​​the head coach Van Gaal always had a serious expression in the locker room. Whenever Van Gaal appeared, the players would consciously lower their voices and sit in their seats in a proper manner.

Put yourself in their shoes!

Guardiola did not want to destroy the joyful atmosphere of the players in the Manchester City locker room at this time because of his appearance.

I don't know if others are embarrassed or not... Mandzukic will definitely be embarrassed!

But Guardiola didn't want to miss celebrating the first victory of the opening game of the new season with his players.

Thinking of this.

Guardiola called Oliver.

"Oliver! Prepare a cake for me... Yes! Tomorrow morning training! And then prepare it for me..."

....................................................

August 12, 8:30 in the morning.

Manchester City training base.

All members are here.

Just when everyone looked at Guardiola with a serious expression and didn't say a word, guessing that there was something big to announce.

But they saw Oliver driving a scooter.

A small cake was delivered.

The Spanish young coach waved a bag of plastic spoons hidden behind his back and smiled.

"This is the celebration cake for the first victory in the opening game that I prepared for everyone. Only one spoon per person."

Everyone felt that it was both novel and interesting, and actively came to Guardiola to get a spoon and eat cake.

The sense of ritual in life is very important!

Within the team.

It can increase the cohesion of the team and bring the head coach and the players closer together.

Then.

Guardiola took out four bottles of champagne from Oliver's scooter.

"Each bottle of champagne has a customized name. The names on these four bottles are Benzema, Mandzukic and Su."

"Yes, that's right."

"Just as you think."

"This is my personal goal reward set for the new season. Every time you score a goal in the league, you can get a bottle of champagne with your name printed on it from me."

"You can use it to celebrate the goal with your teammates or family and friends, or you can collect it."

"I hope."

"ThisI can give out champagne after every game of the season. "

If the players didn't feel anything when eating the cake.

Then it was time to receive the goal champagne.

Many players showed envy and enthusiasm in their eyes.

This champagne may not be valuable.

But such a special ritualistic behavior successfully aroused everyone's enthusiasm and fighting spirit.

Especially Knight.

When he saw Su Fei coming back to him with two bottles of champagne, his eyes were fixed.

Swallowed his saliva.

"Su... I have an unwelcome request."

"Hmm?"

"In every game to come, I hope you can pay more attention to my running position..."

"No problem. "

Su Fei laughed, Knight's expression was just short of writing "I want to eat cakes and get champagne" on his face.

Guardiola took in the expressions of his players.

Very satisfied.

It seems that his reward mechanism, which suddenly came to him, is more popular than he imagined.

Incentive.

Always an indispensable part of a team.

Each club actually has its own internal goal or other corresponding reward mechanism...goal bonus, assist bonus, winning team bonus, championship team bonus, and even subdivided double-scoring bonus, hat-trick bonus... ..Key goal bonus.....

But players will inevitably get tired of the incentive mechanism of these clubs, especially after the salary level reaches a certain level.

So.

Apart from cash rewards, every head coach will also set up some more "spiritual" incentives.

The most talked about one of them.

It must be the miracle of Leicester City in the 2015-16 season, when head coach Ranieri implemented the "winning pizza reward" for players.......

However.

Last season, Stewart had become a pioneer by accident.

.......... ....................................................

August 12, that night!

With Manchester United at Old Trafford and a 0-0 draw with Reading, the opening match of all Premier League teams in the 2007-08 season officially came to an end.

"Manchester City 4-0 bloodbathed West Ham United, the magic man Su Mei scored twice and was elected the man of the match! 》
