Chapter 59: Mission Accomplished
οΌ
When the Getafe team returned to Madrid, they were warmly welcomed by their own fans.
Many Getafe fans went to the Madrid train station and drove the bus escorting the team back to Getafe, southwest of Madrid, where they kept bouncing themselves out of the window to cheer the Getafe players on the bus.
Of course, there are also many people who are shouting the name of Chang Sheng.
Looking at the fans outside the car windows, smiles appeared on the faces of the Getafe players. Although Chang Sheng's words once made them a little silent, everyone actually figured it out on the train.
People also made it very clear that if they are willing to follow him, they will do it together, and if they are unwilling, everyone will get together and disperse.
In the end, the vast majority of people are willing to follow Chang Sheng.
At the very least, it's tempting to upgrade to that goal.
Who wouldn't want to upgrade?
It's just one season.
It's a big deal!
After figuring it out, many people also let go of those messy thoughts and began to enjoy the joy of relegation again.
β»β»β»
Chang Sheng played a game on the train for a while, then closed his eyes and pretended to sleep, actually looking at the system in his mind.
He led the team to a round of relegation ahead of schedule and completed the task of "the watershed between life and death".
Experience and energy rewards, which he doesn't need to focus on, just glance at them.
Anyway, his Master Coach system is still early to be upgraded, and these 100,000 points of experience will not play a decisive role.
The Master Coach system was upgraded from beginner to level 1 with just one key task to complete.
At that time, Chang Sheng didn't find any experience to see.
After reaching the first level, he looked at the system again and found that there was an empirical display.
The first level starts with zero experience, and it takes up to half a million experience to upgrade from the first level to the second level.
And he is only 350,000 experience when he does a task now, and the watershed between life and death is given 100,000 experience because it is the main task.
So it is unlikely that this system will be upgraded to the second level in a short period of time.
In that case, don't care about experience just yet.
The most important thing for Changsheng is skill.
The first is to train skills.
This quest rewards two training skills, one yes and one yes.
It's a very common and common training skill.
But that's the best training skill that Chang Sheng can get in the first tier.
The winning arithmetic is clear, and the focus of the first level is estimated to be on the improvement of physical fitness.
Physical fitness is the foundation of modern football, and it is simply impossible to become a professional player without a qualified body.
It seems that the system sets the first level like this, which also makes some sense.
Now that the task is complete and the team has successfully relegated, this training skill is no longer needed.
Chang Sheng plans to put these two skills in the skill book, not use them for the time being, and wait until the new season to use them.
In addition to the two training skills, there is also a competition skill, which is the most valuable.
: Increases the chance of your player winning in physical confrontations by 5%.
Don't underestimate the 5 percent. Sometimes it's the little 5 percent.
If your players can get 5 per cent more physical duels than anyone else, you may be able to get 5 per cent more possession, 10 per cent more attacking chances and 20 per cent more goals than your opponents.
Football isn't exactly a math problem, but there is some truth to it.
This skill is especially useful in the late stage of the league, but in the early stage, because of the physical reserve after a summer, in fact, the players are not very easy to fatigue, and if you use it, it does not reflect the strength of this skill, it is just a waste of energy.
When he used to win in Getafe C, he used it in every game because he didn't have any other skills to use. Better than nothing.
It's different now.
With that, combined with the tough defensive tactics that often win, it can exert greater power.
Most importantly, it is a skill that brings out the best in the players themselves.
When players find it easier for them to win physical duels, they will be more willing to do so in the game, and they will be unafraid of the confrontation and will be happy to play against it. For confrontation, they will have more confidence.
In this way, a virtuous circle is formed.
In the end, even if you don't use it on the field, you will probably be able to take advantage of the physical confrontation.
Because the players are used to games like this, used to physical confrontations.
They won't be deterred by that.
When the time comes, you can use it yourself, you can not only get the advantage of confrontation, but also ensure the advantage of physical fitness.

The bus stopped outside the Alfonso PΓ©rez Stadium, where the players got off and drove their cars home.
The early relegation was successful, and the final round of the league became less important.
Chang Sheng simply gave the players two days off.
During these two days, they can get plenty of rest and continue to think about what to do in the future.
As for himself, he also has to enjoy this rare two-day vacation.
There aren't many times when you can rest like this. At the end of the season, he will also have a slightly longer vacation, and Chang Sheng plans to go home to visit his parents and leave after only a week.
He has a lot more to do, the most important of which is of course to bring in reinforcements for the team's squad next season.
Chang Sheng, who was carrying a suitcase, had just stepped into the main entrance of the apartment building when he was stopped by Mr. Lemmon, the porter.
"Chang, you're finally back!" He hugged Chang Sheng. "Drink together in the evening! Don't get drunk! β
He raised the bottle in his hand.
Chang Sheng said goodbye to the happy Lemon, climbed the stairs up, and along the way, he was able to meet many people who congratulated and thanked him. He also met Aunt Mary in a hurry, Aunt Mary was so busy buying the freshest ingredients that she didn't bother to say a word to Chang Sheng, just asked him to come to the party on time at eight o'clock in the evening, and then ran downstairs, and the sound of footsteps echoed in the corridor, fully showing Aunt Maria's fiery side.
Looking at his neighbors, Chang Sheng also laughed.
Even when he was relegated at the game, he never smiled so happily.
Still seeing the smiling faces of these ordinary fans makes him feel more accomplished.
In his previous life, he was a veteran FM player, but he was also a fan. Whether it's from a Chinese or a foreign team, he's a fan.
In fact, ordinary fans don't want much, as long as their team can win and win the championship.
Nothing else matters.
But no matter how much the fans love the team, it can't decide the fate of the team.
If the team is relegated, the players will have a hard time at most one day, and the next day they will pat themselves on the ass and pack their bags and go to the next team to continue to receive a good salary. The coach is the same, he is dismissed, and he can make a comeback in a different place.
But fans can't change places.
Especially for fans like the West, their affection is related to the environment in which they live. They were born and raised in Getafe, they have been exposed to Getafe since childhood, and they naturally like Getafe, and even if they go elsewhere in the future, they will not forget the team they supported as a child.
They won't switch to supporting other teams just because Getafe have been relegated.
Even if the team eventually goes bankrupt, they will still support the team from the beginning of the regional league.
There are many such examples.
For example, Fiorentina fans, Napoli fans, Wimbledon fans.
They are all like that. Use your own practical actions to show the world what it means to "love you in life, love you in defeat, and love you in death." β
Ever since he crossed over, he has been thinking about how he can succeed in the coaching profession.
But today, when he saw the kind smiling faces of these neighbors, he suddenly thought, wouldn't it be better if more people could have such smiles on the way to his own success?
He's a fan himself, so he understands the mood of the fans.
He can not be the board of directors of the club, not the big stars, but he can't care less about the fans.
Because it's the fans who are the foundation of the sport......
If a sport has no foundation, what is the value and possibility of existence?
He was very glad that he didn't go to some rich area to rent a large villa of several hundred square meters to live in, but lived in an ordinary apartment building with a group of ordinary fans.
In Chinese parlance, such a life...... Down-to-earth!

In the evening, in the courtyard in the middle of the building, all the residents hosted a celebratory dinner for Getafe and the success of the first team in charge.
Chang Sheng became the focus of everyone's drinking.
And he is in a good mood, and he does not refuse to come, and he will never put up a fight in front of these ordinary fans.
Without fans, he's a fart. So what's there to pretend to be in front of the fans?
He didn't know how much he had drunk that night, and he didn't even know how he got back to his room.
Anyway, the next day he was woken up by Aunt Maria's earth-shattering knock on the door.
"Often! Often! It's noon, come and have lunch at my house! Have you woken up!! β
Chang Sheng got up from the bed, and then grinned at the headache.
"How much the have I drunk...... Chang Sheng muttered as he slowly got up from the bed, he wanted to put on his shoes, but when he looked over, he couldn't find where his shoes were. Aunt Maria's energetic knock at the door continued to sound, and at last he simply walked barefoot to open the door.
As soon as the door opened, Aunt Maria's fist almost hit him in the face......
"Heroes spare their lives!" This dispelled most of the decadence after the hangover of Changsheng.
Aunt Maria was also taken aback: "You opened the door and quietly...... Often, hurry up and wash up and go to my house for lunch! β
"What time is it? Aunt Mary......"
"It's two o'clock, what do you want?"
Chang Sheng was stunned for a moment, it was so late?
Damn, how long have I been asleep!
"Uh, right away, I'll be fine right away...... Chang Sheng didn't close the door, turned around and ran to the bathroom.
Aunt Maria was not polite, and walked directly into Chang Sheng's house.
Everyone was a neighbor, not a stranger, and Mary had come in more than once.
But every time she came in, the lines were the same.
"Tsk...... Often, it's not me talking about you, you bachelor is too ...... life" Aunt Maria frowned and smacked her lips as she looked at the messy room in front of her.
Changsheng's clothes, socks, and shoes are scattered everywhere. Chang Sheng washed up from the bathroom, and the process of getting dressed was like hunting for treasure in the mountains.
Then he hurriedly began to get dressed.
The bed is a messy quilt, the table is piled with all kinds of fast food packaging boxes, and the garbage can in the corner is already full of garbage, but no one has cleaned it yet.
Aunt Maria sighed, "Chang, I think you should find a girl to take care of yourself." β
When Chang Sheng heard this, he was a little embarrassed: "I've just been a little busy lately...... Actually, it wasn't like this before......"
"Don't you know yet? I know you've done a lot to keep the team relegated, but there's no need to make yourself so embarrassed, right? Aunt Maria shook her head, "Forget it, let's go eat first, and find a cleaner to help you clean up later......"
At Aunt Maria's house, Chang Sheng had another very hearty lunch.
According to Aunt Maria, last night was a party, and today is a family banquet for their family to thank Chang Sheng, and thank Chang Sheng for leading Getafe to relegation.
"Keep up the good work next season, Chang!" Old Goland said to Chang Sheng.
Chang Sheng nodded again and again: "It must be!" β
He thought to himself, if he really led the team to promotion next season, how happy old Goland would be by then?
