Don t be lazy! Uncle Jiong activates Leo with two moves, Qin Xiaogong eats and stays in Milanello, and wants to reach the peak of his career

Since Allegri took office as the head coach of AC Milan, the training atmosphere in the team has been very harmonious, especially Leo, known as the "lazy king", has changed the most. Uncle Jiong only used two moves to make the Portuguese's attitude change 180°. He willingly lived and lived in the training base, and was always the first to arrive at the training ground, ready to reach the peak of his career. In early July, AC Milan completed the assembly under the call of new coach Allegri, and the Ross and Blacks became the first team to start summer training in the top 20 Serie A. Judging from the recent training videos, the players are in full spirit, and the experienced Allegri also has a complete set of training methods.

In group confrontation, players are always fighting for every goal, eager to prove themselves in front of the new coach. To give a few interesting examples, Chukueze waved excitedly after snatching the ball, while Fofana questioned the assistant's penalty: "Referee, do your job well!" The most unexpected thing is Leo's transformation.

In the past, Leo's attitude on and off the court was a bit lazy, especially after Pioli left office, the relationship between the Portuguese and the two subsequent coaches was relatively tense. When Fonseca first took office, he wanted to hit Leo and Teo. The incident of the two leaving the large army to replenish water alone caused disagreement among the generals.

Concesan, who had extremely strict requirements on players, naturally regarded Leo as the target of rectification. In the last round of the league, he did not arrange for his Portuguese fellow countryman to make a debut in the final game. This made Leo disheartened by the club for a time, and even deleted all tags about Milan on social platforms.

Allegri's arrival changed everything. After completing the first in-depth conversation with Ajiong, Leo was deeply touched and motivated. As the absolute core of the team, the Portuguese did not make a salary increase and leave the team like Menion and Teo. His attitude was very positive, and he brought a trainer with him even on vacation. A more positive signal is that Leo has recently begun to actively stay in Milanello for overnight stays and is always the first to arrive at the training ground.

Leo is also due to the two tricks of the old fried dough stick Allegri. The first is to formally appoint Leo as the vice captain while arranging Meinion to continue as captain, which has urged the Portuguese international to change their roles, set an example, and strive to become a benchmark for their teammates.

Allegri's second way to rekindle Leo's fighting spirit is to re-give him the core position of building the team. Both Fonseca and Concesan have unclear positioning of Leo and have always pursued a high-pressure policy, which has caused players to complain. Uncle Jiong's management method is relatively relaxed, and he also decided to follow the tactical ideas of Pioli's era and formulate tactical play around Leo, which can be seen from recent training classes.

Allegri took great care of Leo on the training ground and asked him to learn to use space to enhance his aggressiveness and deterrence, and even corrected him in the tiniest details such as posture and movement. Ajiong hopes that Leo will be freed from the tactical constraints of the past, have a 360° game vision, and freely show all his talents on the court, just like Pioli back then, giving him unlimited fire.

As a representative figure of Gouji, Allegri specially arranged forward shooting training for the front line. He asked assistant coach Coradi to cooperate with Leo in two-pass one-on-one. The former passed the ball to a deep end, and the latter scored the goal. This seems to be practicing the future cooperation routine between Modric and Leo. Allegri also commented on details: "Don't just use your arch to push and shoot, but also learn to shoot with your instep."

Among all the coaches in Milan, Allegri, who focuses on defensive counterattacks, is the most likely coach to let Leo reach the peak of his career. He once said at a press conference that Leo, 26, is at the best golden age for a player and is confident that he will become the absolute protagonist on the court. I hope that under Uncle Jiong's training, Leo will score more than 20 goals in a single season.
