When Chris Kasper sat down in his office chair after work in the morning, the phone in front of him rang.
"This is Chris..."
"Chris, get me a detailed analysis report of Jakub's shots in the penalty area immediately, and give me the video highlights of his goals in the penalty area... beep beep beep beep beep beep..." ..”
Casper heard that the other party on the phone had hung up, and slowly put the receiver back on the phone.
"Does he really think he is the head coach?" Kasper said to the two data analysts next to him.
"The phone rang twice before you came."
"No, I came earlier. This is the fifth call. There may be more, but we haven't arrived yet."
Subordinates in both offices complained to their bosses, Leeds United technical director Casper complained.
Casper angrily picked up the sandwich in his hand, took a hard bite, and then turned on his computer, completely forgetting that he usually made a cup of coffee first when he came to the office.
"Uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu Did he come before seven o'clock?" Casper was eating a sandwich because there was no coffee. I was choked, so I touched my chest several times to calm down my breath.
He decided to make the coffee no matter what, otherwise he would definitely choke to death.
While Casper was being tortured by Eddie Howe, several people in another office were also attacked by Eddie Howe.
"Brian, is there anything else about Mark Viduka's technical characteristics that you haven't mentioned?"
"I've told you everything I can tell you, don't you still want me to ask what color underwear Viduka will wear on the day of the match?"
Kidd put down the newspaper in his hand. He had no intention of reading any more.
"John, I think we can arrange a 45-minute warm-up match between the substitute players and the main players during the afternoon training. I want to see more intuitively where their shortcomings are, so that the main players can play more seriously."
"Okay, I'll make arrangements."
After saying that, Sheridan walked out, pretending to make arrangements for the hot event, but actually wanting to escape from this place of right and wrong.
"I'm going to help."
Nigel Martin also got up and followed out.
"Colin, tell me the truth, what kind of physical fitness among the substitute players cannot guarantee a 90-minute high-intensity game,"
"I've told you three times." McGee saw that Eddie Howe's face was a little uncomfortable and quickly changed his tone, "If you play according to the main players' style, keep it at 5%. Ten possessions, then your lineup might be able to meet the requirements except for Danny Rose."
Colin McGee's ability to say this depends on his confidence in his physical training. For two consecutive offseasons, McGee went to Europe's best physical fitness coach Pintus to learn.
"I predict that the ball possession rate will be five to ten percentage points lower, so our pressing intensity will be stronger." Howe discussed with McGee seriously.
Seeing how serious Hao was, McGee also got into the mood.
"Ten is too scary. You need to let a few people in the backcourt strengthen control, otherwise the game may collapse in the final stage."
"Two 1.9-meter center backs, a defensive midfielder with a rough playing style, and two full-backs whose combined age is less than 35, you tell me about ball control?" Eddie Howe knew what he had in his hands. How many kilograms of cards are there?
"Then you may need to prepare a backup plan. You must at least have a key card to play in the final stage."
"Let me think about it."
With that said, Eddie Howe began to prepare his pre-game tactics.
McGee was also infected by Eddie Howe's state and began to study the physical fitness reports of these substitute players to see if he could help Howe.
Kidd also put on reading glasses and began to lay out tactics. After a while, he was going to follow Eddie Howe to analyze his opponent. Seeing his serious look, Kidd also decided not to fish for fish, and used his energy to analyze the few pieces of paper in his hand.
This game is not only a test for Eddie Howe, but also a test for the entire Leeds United coaching staff.
After the three of them worked quietly for half an hour, Eddie Howe picked up the phone again and called the youth team's coaching office.
"Hi, hello. I'm Eddie Howe from the first team, and I'd like a recent match report on Sigurdsson and Danny Rose. Yes, a detailed one, thank you."
Mikey looked up and found that Kidd also looked up. The two looked at each other and smiled, then lowered their heads and continued working.

In the head coach's office, George Lee and Tony Wilson had just finished talking about Robben's transfer status, and then started talking about the game against Middlesbrough.
"Did you really let Eddie call the game?" Wilson wondered why George Lee was so big but let Eddie Howe call the game.
"Not only the command, I even left the game preparation to him. Chris already called to complain just now. Eddie assigned him countless tasks, and he was a little overwhelmed."
"Haha, it seems Eddie really takes this game seriously."
"Although he has just arrived, I can see that he will be an excellent coach in the future. I mean the head coach, not the assistant coach." George Lee is very optimistic about Eddie Howe's future.
"Aren't you going to teach a powerful opponent? Shouldn't you hide your skills and not let him learn everything?"
"Isn't that a very interesting thing, just like Sir Alex Ferguson did to me." George Li still talked about Ferguson.
Regarding Ferguson, George Lee has always believed that being able to defeat the old man on the field is the greatest respect for the old man and another affirmation of the old man's ability.
"As I said, as long as you need it, the club will definitely support you unconditionally." Wilson now completely regards George Li as one of his own, or it can be said that Wilson himself has completely integrated into George Li's family. .
However, George Lee’s father Jim is still very opposed to this.
"Real Madrid seems to have taken advantage of us. After buying Van Persie, they actually asked me about Graveson's price. Do you think you need to refuse?" Wilson mentioned another transfer received to George Li. Will request.
It was Real Madrid who wanted to introduce Graveson in the summer. Although Graveson is the core of Leeds United's midfield, Lee George, who is seeking big changes this summer, has determined that Graveson is no longer that indispensable figure.
"When Real Madrid signed Van Persie before, we added additional terms, so we can completely agree to the transfer, but the price must be right."
"Then what do you think is appropriate?" Wilson wanted to get a base price from George Li so that he could operate more easily.
"This is your business. Although we are not short of money, Real Madrid's money is not in vain, right... Hehehe."
"Hehe~"
Both men laughed evilly.
At this moment, the phone on George Li's desk rang, and George Li picked it up after ringing twice.
"This is George Lee."
"Eddie, you said... ok, ok... no problem, I'll take care of it, don't worry, I'll definitely satisfy you... Bye."
After George Li hung up the phone, Wilson asked immediately.
"Why, the assistant coach arranged for the head coach to work instead?"
"No, I want to invite the whole team to a dinner party tonight. After all, he is the protagonist in the next game. To make the supporting actors perform their best, they must flatter the supporting actors. He asked me to order some delivery and so on, and asked Charles by name. Fried fish..."
"Haha, why didn't he invite us to dinner after the game? He wasn't afraid that the players would eat first and not work hard on the field?" Wilson said.
"He said that if he lost, he would be afraid that everyone would lose their appetite."
"Hahaha~"
The two laughed again in the office.
