On the empty training ground, Ranieri met the real owner of the team, Hugo, and this was not the first time the two had met, they had met before, but they were not familiar with each other and had not said hello.

Ranieri tried to tell Hugo what he thought, but Hugo was not interested, he said to Ranieri: "Mr. Ranieri, I will not interfere with your ideas, I just hope that the team can turn the tide as soon as possible, Alex said well, we are not completely in crisis now, the season has just begun, our goal is still to determine good results on all fronts!" It's up to you next! ”

You're not going to let me talk about it?! Ranieri has been preparing for a while, since he and Giorgio finalized the agreement, Ranieri began to study the materials sent to him seriously, staying up late to watch Trapani's game video, of course, he didn't watch it all, he was an old man who was very good at learning, otherwise he wouldn't be able to play well in several major league teams.

He specially selected some classic Trapani games to watch, these games have lost and won, especially the recent league losing streak game video, he watched them all, looked for problems and solutions, prepared to deal with Hugo's rhetoric, and made himself look like a candidate for the exam.

Who knew that Hugo didn't care about this, Ranieri was a little stupid, listening to Hugo's words, he said: "I think the team has a good foundation, I believe I can change the current situation!" ”

Hugo smiled and personally took him around the training base, and Giorgio whispered to Kutner: "Jurgen. Klinsmann didn't get such treatment, Hugo didn't come in person! It can be seen that Gigi attaches great importance to Mr. Ranieri! ”

Kutner was slightly relieved.

He and Ranieri are both coming to the Pacheco training base in Trapani for the first time, which is needless to say quite impressive, with all the facilities, the most advanced medical center, the first-class training facilities, and of course, the first-class youth training base, in short, it is not comparable to the teams that Ranieri has coached before, which makes Ranieri very satisfied.

Hugo also took him to the construction site of the Sea Jumbo, which now has some foundations, and the construction was expected to take more than three years, but now it is only a little more than a year, but due to various problems in the construction process, the construction of the stadium has actually been delayed.

The Big Mac is Hugo's proud capital, and the old gentleman Ranieri really complimented the young Hugo, which made Hugo's classmates very satisfied.

The news from the media is very fast, in fact, Trapani's selection of coaches this time is relatively fast, and they only suddenly realized today that it was Claudio. Ranieri.

It's not Lippi that everyone is optimistic about, although Lippi has emphasized that Lao Tzu is retired, and everyone can't believe it.

Whether Ranieri is the right person or not, the media has given their own opinions, and most of them believe that Trapani's choice of Ranieri is actually a wise decision, and he is suitable to make up the mess.

The next morning, Trapani held a press conference for Ranieri to take the stage, and Giorgio signed a formal contract with Ranieri on behalf of the club.

Speaking at the press conference, Ranieri spoke eloquently, certainly not bragging, saying that he was delighted to receive an offer from Trapani to coach and thanked the club for the trust they placed in him.

The invited reporters began to ask questions, given that Ranieri was a lovely old man, the reporters did not make it too difficult for him, of course, there were a few questions that were a bit tricky, and the old fritter Ranieri easily pushed it away.

At noon, Ranieri invited the team's coaching staff to have a light meal at the Colini Hotel, which was really out of his own pocket, and this time he accepted the team in a hurry, the coaching staff he invited was not in place, and Giorgio also strictly restricted the people he brought, only allowed him to bring two coaches over, and there was no way to use Barrias who had been in Trapani for several years.

This is where Ranieri is smarter, not only has he been in Trapani for many years, but he has also been able to speak directly to Hugo, and he has a good relationship with many of the team's players, and befriending them is very important for him to control the team.

Barrias, Lombardi, and Nkono all assured Ranieri at the table that they would support him wholeheartedly.

Ranieri is actually more worried about Barrias, the first-pick assistant coach has just led the team to the first victory of the new season, Ranieri is worried that this old brother has the intention of being a head coach, who knows that people do not have this mind.

At the dinner table, Barrias told Ranieri about the team's situation clearly, without any ambiguity, Ranieri was very relieved, and at the dinner table, Ranieri gave his tactical ideas to his helpers and plates, quite honest, and even told everyone clearly why he wanted to adopt the 433 formation.

Barrias and the others secretly admired, and had to say that this old guy was a personal elf!

In the afternoon training, the players continued to train, and Ranieri came to the training ground with a spring breeze on his face, and the players were told yesterday that Ranieri would be the head coach of the team, so they didn't look surprised.

Ranieri greeted everyone with a smile, showing a people-friendly image, which gave the players a very good first impression.

Ranieri then began to talk to the team's players, and the first wave was to find several players from the Senate, including captain Toni, Barzagli, Kameni, veteran goalkeeper Fontana, Mascherano and Evra.

Speaking in the tactical boardroom, Ranieri said: "It's really nice to be in Trapani and work with everyone! I'm no stranger to all of you, I often watch Trapani's games! ”

With Ranieri's laughter, the players of the Senate were very relaxed, Ranieri began to talk about everything about the team, slowly closing the distance with everyone, and only after getting acquainted with Ranieri did he say to everyone: "Now we look like we're in a lot of trouble, the team did a good job in the last game, but a win doesn't mean we're getting better, right?!" We all need to keep up the good work! ”

"I'm going to talk to you today, because you're the veterans of the team, you have a lot of influence in the dressing room, and honestly, only if you and I are together, we can work together and put this team back together!"

The patriarchs gave Ranieri a lot of face, one is that this old man is not ordinary and famous, and the other is that the old man is indeed very soft-spoken and does not make people feel difficult to contact. So everyone said, "We will definitely support you!" ”

Ranieri just started to talk slowly about how to change this team, and of course he won't say this time because you have a lot of midfielders, so I became 433.

In fact, this formation is very easy to get the recognition of the senators, first of all, this formation team is not unfamiliar, it is really not strange, they have played in the Zeman era and the Hugo era, it can be said that Trapani started in Serie A in 433, can it be unfamiliar?!

Secondly, Toney has no opinion, if it is a double striker, he may prefer it, but he has no opinion on a single striker, a single striker means that he has to resist hard in front, and the double striker has someone to help him share the pressure in the middle, which is more conducive to his play.

So from the bottom of his heart, Toney would prefer the team to use a two-striker strategy, but he has never been against the manager, and Ranieri said that he would not vote against it if he wanted to.

In the end, most of the senators have a good relationship with Mascherano, after all, everyone has been mixed together for so many years, Klinsmann's 442 is most seriously affected by Mascherano and Pizarro, there is always a relationship, 433 has an additional midfield position, which will give Mascherano more opportunities, so everyone can not support it.

So Ranieri actually didn't have much effort to convince the Elders to support him, and this guy only gathered two of the team's most important forces on the first day of his arrival, which shows how strong he is.

But that's not all, Ranieri spent the afternoon getting to know almost all of the team's players.
