Chapter 691 I almost believed it

On January 26, Sebena Training Base.

Ruyun, a reporter from the press conference hall, said that this is the first press conference in Bayern Munich since the winter break.

Tomorrow, the team will set off to challenge Stuttgart away. This is the knockout match of the German Cup quarterfinals and the first official match for Bayern Munich after the winter break.

After the team returned to Europe, Bayern Munich once played a game at the Allianz Stadium, which was a farewell match held for the retirement of the club's legend Kahn. In that game, Gao Han led Bayern Munich and coached Heathfield. Kahn's famous team played a friendly match. The result was self-evident. Gao Han's team won a small victory.

However, the news that Gao Han coached Real Madrid and Manchester City was revealed after the end of this game. After that, Gao Han stayed silent until the knockout match of the German Cup.

The spacious press conference hall is filled with media reporters from Germany and Europe, especially Spanish and British media reporters, who are obviously coming to pursue the high and cold news.

Therefore, when Gao Han walked into the press conference accompanied by the club's press officer, all the media reporters immediately heard the news, but they all knew the rules and the scene would not be chaotic.

As early as backstage, Gao Han knew that there were many media reporters on the scene. He was used to seeing all kinds of big scenes. He had played several European finals, so why would he be stage frightened?

He calmly stepped into the venue and came to the front of the podium. He put the materials in his hand on the table, and did not sit down. He stood up straight and even calmly adjusted the microphones in front of him so that they could better receive their voices.

On the contrary, the Bayern Munich press officer seemed to be waiting for Gao Han to sit down and did not speak for a long time.

When Gao Han saw this, he nodded slightly and signaled that he might as well do it by himself.

"I know everyone has many questions, but according to the rules, you can let me complete the process first and then ask questions one by one, okay?" Gao Han's tone was very calm and peaceful, as if he was discussing, but he also showed determination that was undebated.

Anyone who is familiar with and knows Gao Han knows that what he hates the most is those who do not abide by the rules. If they still ask questions indiscriminately, he will definitely not answer a single question, so the reporters nodded one after another.

The scene became quiet in an instant.

Gao Han made a call to the press officer from afar, indicating that he could start.

The Bayern Munich press officer looked at Gao Han with admiration and even admiration. It was hard for him to imagine that this group of reporters who called themselves the uncrowned king would be so obedient in front of Gao Han.

Perhaps, this is why Gao Han became a top-notch coach.

The so-called process is the purpose of this press conference, announcing the large roster of Stuttgart tomorrow's away game, but in fact no one will be interested in this game, so there are even fewer people recording on the spot.

But Gao Han still announced one by one according to the process. Except for Vidal and Klose who were slightly injured, Bayern Munich had all the staff. Vidal was injured during the Middle East training camp, while Klose was strained in Kahn's farewell match, which was not serious.

After completing the process, the press officer announced that he had begun to enter the free questioning stage, but Gao Han quickly spoke again.

"I know what you want to ask, so I'll answer it here one by one. I hope everyone will wait a moment and don't ask the same questions again, so as to save everyone's time."

The exact opposite of what happened just now, all the reporters at the scene were immediately fighting, with recording pens, paper and notebooks all ready, just waiting for Gao Han to speak.

"I have read the recent reports from some media in Spain and the UK, and I can only say that" Gao Han smiled and nodded, "Well, the stories they wrote are very wonderful. People say that literary creation comes from life and is higher than life. Whether you believe it or not, I almost believe it after reading it myself."

Many people at the scene found it funny.

"I am the head coach of Bayern Munich. I have a contract with the club. Any remarks about my private contact with other clubs are fictional fabrications. I reserve the right to pursue the lawsuit."

"I don't know what everyone thinks of me, but I ask myself that I am a person who is more professional ethics. I will never reach any coaching agreements with other clubs privately while coaching a team. This is a very immoral behavior. In my past coaching career, I have never done this before, not now, and never in the future."

Gao Han said this loudly, making no one feel suspicious, and many people even looked awe-inspiring.

"It is true that as some media reporters secretly photographed, I have met Paul Fottery. We are very good friends. He called me before he went to work in Manchester City. I have never expressed any opinions on this. There is nothing we can't disclose to the public in the conversation, and no coaching agreement was reached as some media said."

"During my contract period, I belong to Bayern Munich. I will use all my things to serve the team I coach, and I will not do anything that is unfavorable to the unity and development of the team."

"I just want to say that the only thing I want to do now is one thing to lead the team to win, and I don't want anything other than that."

This is also very consistent with the impression Gao Han has always left on the outside world.

In fact, he managed Atletico Madrid and retired after he retired, and he contacted Chelsea only after he retired.

In the later stages of coaching Chelsea, he had a very unhappy relationship with the management. There were also many rumors that were not conducive to Gao Han, such as his greed for money, such as his private contact with Inter Milan, etc. But in fact, it was later proved that these were the actions of Chelsea's management to spread rumors and slander Gao Han, so he took a year off to avoid suspicion.

After coaching Inter Milan as a free agent, Gao Han brought the team to the Champions League title within two years, and then he retired and returned to China for vacation. Later, the management of two giant teams, Barcelona and Bayern Munich, rushed to Beijing to grab the news at the same time.

So, judging from Gao Han’s past experience, he has always believed in his professional ethics.

Perhaps, he had met Paul Fottery, but could he not even meet friends?

As long as Gao Han’s clarification is not deliberately turned a blind eye to it, he will basically win the trust.

But this does not mean that media reporters will reject rumors, as the saying goes, no wind can cause waves.

"Mr. Gao Han, we completely believe what you said, and we also believe in your professional ethics. However, we also want to know when you plan to renew your contract with Bayern Munich?" asked the German Photo reporter with concern.

Keeping Gao Han is not only a concern for Bayern Munich, but also a major event that the entire German football world cares about.

If Gao Han leaves, it will be a big loss to the Bundesliga, and at least the media attention will drop a lot.

"Yes, my contract with the club expired this summer. In the past two years, I have been very happy with everyone here. I admire their outstanding professionalism. I like this, people here, and fans here."

Speaking of this, Gao Han changed his tone, "But as I said before, the only thing I care about now is the game. Whether to renew my contract will wait until the end of the season to make a decision."

Everyone understands Gao Han’s subtext, and he will retreat bravely like he did at Atletico Madrid and Inter Milan.

The premise is that he can lead Bayern Munich to the Champions League championship.

This is also the promise he made to the management and fans when coaching Bayern Munich.

Gao Han's confession made the media reporters on the scene unable to find any fault. After all, what else can they do?

So, British media began to ask about the Champions League quarterfinals in February.

"Well, yes, it will be a very interesting experience to return to Stamford Bridge Stadium. I don't know what reactions the fans on the scene will give me, maybe cheers, maybe boos, maybe not, but no matter what, I still remember that they once gave me selfless applause and cheers."

"Of course, I will still do my best to lead Bayern Munich to a away victory."

When British media reporters asked a question about Rijkald's performance in coaching Chelsea, Gao Han seriously defended Rijkald, believing that it was unfair to compare Rijkald with his coaching period.

"As far as I go, I think he did a pretty good job. If anyone changes, he should be able to do this, because the Premier League is the most competitive and cruel league in the world. Compared with a few years ago, the difficulty has increased by more than one level."

Regarding media rumors, Chelsea management gave Rijkaard the killing order, and if he did not win Bayern Munich in the quarterfinals, he would be dismissed directly, and Gao Han scolded him.

"I don't know if the news is true, but I think it's very unfair to him. It seriously increases the psychological burden on the head coach and the players. How can a person in shackles dance lightly?"

When a British reporter asked whether this was Gao Han’s accusation against the Chelsea management, Gao Han immediately shook his head and denied it, saying that he had no intention of this aspect, and how to understand it is the reporter’s own business.

Obviously, before the Champions League knockout round, Gao Han was not willing to let himself get into media disputes too much to avoid giving people the impression of revenge.

After Gao Han publicly denied the rumors before the game, Bayern Munich official also held another press conference that afternoon, refuting the fictitious rumors outside and publicly supporting Gao Han.

“We firmly believe that professional ethics won’t let him do anything that is unfavorable to the team.”

Regarding the expiration of the contract that many fans and media reporters are worried about, Heness also said that the club is working hard to renew the contract with the head coach, and the team will show the greatest sincerity to keep Gao Han.

Judging from the official statement of Bayern Munich, the initiative to renew the contract is now in Gao Han. As long as he nods, the contract renewal will be completed immediately.

The question is, will he renew his contract?

Gao Han and Bayern Munich's official statements have only temporarily eased the hype of the outside media, temporarily stabilized the fans and the hearts of the team, but they still could not calm the media and fans' concerns about Gao Han's departure this summer.

However, on the second day of the press conference, Bayern Munich was unstoppable in the team's away game to challenge Stuttgart.

After the first ten minutes of organization, Bayern Munich started a crazy attack from the tenth minute, and in the thirteenth minute, Schweinsteiger inserted a long shot to score a goal for the Bundesliga giants, and four minutes later Ribery won another goal.

Before the first half was over, Robben scored another goal, expanding the score to three to zero.

After winning, Gao Han made a substitution early and replaced the young player Tony Kross.

In the second half, Tony Kroos's straight pass allowed Aguero to enter the penalty area and create a penalty kick. The Argentine striker personally took the penalty and expanded the score to four-to-zero.

Five minutes later, Modric won another goal, five to zero.

After that, Gao Han replaced two of them in a row, both of them were mainly young players. Stuttgart also scored a goal to regain his face in the 84th minute.
Chapter completed!
