At the first team training ground, assistant coach Pro and Makelele talked on the sidelines.
"Boss, did you go to the transfer department again?"
"Well, I just saw him answering the phone and hurried over."
"How's your expression?"
"Poker face."
"Sigh, it's probably not good news."
Since entering 2009, due to busy transfer matters, Yunsheng has focused more on this, and the team's training work has basically been handed over to assistant coaches Pro and Makelele.
Pro is the veteran of the team, with a steady and down-to-earth personality, and is serious and responsible on the training ground. Yun Sheng is very assured of him.
Makelele has been a part-time assistant coach since he came to Monaco. In addition to his own training, he also helps his teammates with training. During this period, Yun Sheng was rarely at the training ground, so Makelele took the initiative to take on many tasks. Team training.
Half an hour later, Yun Sheng came back. He sat on the sidelines, flipping through the information in his hands and shaking his head.
In the end, he simply threw the information aside, closed his eyes, and didn't know what he was thinking.
"Claude, I'll leave the training ground to you first. I'll go over and see him."
"Okay Pro, go ahead."
When Pro came to Yun Sheng, he knew that the situation was not good without having to speak. He asked in a low voice: "The other club does not agree with our transfer offer?"
Yun Sheng sighed: "Although less than a week has passed in January 2009, I can basically confirm now that Monaco's transfer winter window has ended in advance. Those clubs are either unwilling to let him go, or the club is willing , players have ideas.”
"I originally thought that even if I couldn't buy Lucio and Arshavin, it wouldn't be a big problem to buy a few young stars from Belgium and the Eredivisie, right? But I didn't expect that even they would be a little dismissive of Ligue 1. Alas, is Ligue 1’s influence really that low now?”
Looking in the direction of the court, Proud suddenly asked: "Do you still remember the last time a French Ligue 1 team won the Champions League?"
"Yes..." Even Yun Sheng, who is rich in football knowledge, was stunned for a moment, and after calculating for a while, he came to the conclusion, "It was in the 1992-1993 season, Marseille won the Champions League, and no French Ligue 1 team has ever touched Europe since then. The highest honor.”
Pro nodded: "Yes, until Manchester United won the championship last year, it was almost all won by the Premier League, La Liga, Serie A and the Bundesliga in these years. Manchester United and Liverpool in the Premier League, Real Madrid and Barcelona in La Liga, Juventus and AC Milan in Serie A, and the German Bundesliga Bayern, Dortmund.”
"The only two non-major league teams to win the championship were Porto in the 2004 season and Ajax in the 9495 season. It was because the stars of the two teams had a blowout and the giants were in a sluggish state that they were lucky enough to win it. Champions League champion."
"And what about Ligue 1? It has not won the Champions League for more than ten years. The closest one was Monaco in the 2030 season, which reached the Champions League final. In the end, they lost to that special Portuguese and lost their best chance to reach the top. Chance."
"The Champions League is the highest honor stage for European clubs. If you can't get good results there, how can Ligue 1 not be despised? If one day you can lead Monaco to win the Champions League, you will definitely be able to buy whoever you want. Yes, haha."
Yun Sheng glanced at his mouth and said, "Champions League? That's too far away. It's not something I should consider now. Let alone the Champions League, if the team can participate in the Champions League next season, I will be very happy."
Pro suddenly asked: "If you stayed in Cottbus, you would have been able to participate in the Champions League this season. But you gave up. Do you regret it now?"
Yun Sheng did not reply to Pu Luo's words. He looked towards the sky and fell into deep thought...
Although he has left Germany, Yunsheng is still very concerned about everything about Cottbus. Yunsheng also understands the current situation of Cottbus very well.
In just the past half season, Cottbus has been a disaster.
Since the new coach Slovenian Pulašnica took office, he has made a lot of changes to the team. The team is in turmoil. Not only has it lost consecutive games in the league, but the team is also panicked. Players such as Shao Jiayi and Yu Hai are also in a state of turmoil. There were rumors of leaving the team.
In this unfavorable situation of internal and external troubles, Chairman Crane had no choice but to fire Plashnika at the end of December. The Slovenians didn't even spend their first Christmas in Cottbus before leaving sadly.
With no one available, Crane once again promoted Sandel to the position of head coach.
After Sandel took office, he re-activated the three Chinese generals represented by Shao Jiayi, and they won three consecutive league victories in one breath, quickly escaping from the relegation zone.
But to be fair, Plashnica is not useless, at least in the Champions League, he led Cottbus to create miracles.
Although Cottbus participated in the Champions League group stage for the first time, they miraculously emerged from the encirclement and successfully qualified with a good result of second place in the group!
This makes the Cottbus club ecstatic.
While happy, everyone began to miss Yun Sheng who had left.
Yunsheng can be said to have contributed a lot to this Champions League journey. In several important games, the players introduced by Yunsheng last season performed well.
Yu Hai scored the first goal for a Chinese player in the Champions League, helping the team win a difficult victory.
Shao Jiayi's free kick skills showed off in the Champions League. He scored twice from free kicks to help the team get an important three points.
In the draw for the sixteenth-finals, Cottbus was drawn against French Ligue 1 powerhouse Bordeaux.
In the end, their miracle failed to continue.
Bordeaux scored 2-0 in two rounds and easily eliminated the new Champions League team Cottbus.
Although the Cottbus players tried their best, Cottbus could not compare with Bordeaux in terms of tactics and player ability. The strength gap between the two teams was not small, and Cottbus did not create more Big miracle.
Their favorite team was eliminated from the Champions League. Cottbus fans miss Yunsheng who is far away in Monaco even more. You must know that even though Bordeaux is strong, in the French Ligue 1 not long ago, Yunsheng just led the team for 4 games. Defeated Bordeaux 2-2 and won heartily.
"If Yunsheng was still in Cottbus, we would at least reach the quarterfinals of the Champions League!"
The local media in Cottbus wrote so.
However, Yun Sheng no longer cares about this. After all, he is no longer the coach of Cottbus. The speculation about what will happen if he still stays in Cottbus is actually meaningless.
Now for him, Monaco's double-match week is the biggest problem he will face...
