I can't help it, I guess I have a face that is not innocent at first glance, and I didn't climb up by my own struggle.

On the way home from Fran's house, Fran kept repeating this phrase on the phone in his head. Guti couldn't tell if he really thought so, or if it was just pure self-deprecation. However, Fran began to suspect that Igor would not speak up for him, and the relationship between the two men was now stiff to this point?

Thinking of this, Guti had planned to call Raul to have a good talk, but remembering that he had just integrated into Al Sadd in Qatar, he felt that he didn't want to worry about him anymore. In their wave, Guti probably retired early, but the failure to fully integrate into the team in the Turkish Super League and the poor relationship with the head coach are the main reasons for his hasty retirement.

The club that looks good has no intention of transferring, and the club with transfer intention cannot afford his high annual salary. What more can Guti say, this is probably the usual portrayal of the end of the footballer.

But everything was settled, and Guti didn't bother to worry about it anymore. He finally picked up his phone, flipped through the address book and called Casillas.

The next day, things reversed, and Casillas, who had never refuted everything his girlfriend had said in public, clarified the news in an interview. Cassie said that he and Fran have shared their respective responsibilities since they took office, and he trusts Fran to ensure stability in the locker room, and that the so-called nonsense is nonsense.

The biggest criticism of Casillas before was not that he leaked the team information to his girlfriend, but that he was angry that he did not speak up when Real Madrid was criticized by the outside world. He has been the captain for so many years, and he should know that for clubs, especially clubs like Real Madrid, the idea of 'clear self-purification' is a joke at all, and if you don't distinguish between them, no matter how 'clear' you are, you can be drifted into 'turbidity'.

And Casillas has rarely clarified to the outside world this season, and what is clarified is the news about Forlan, and people still recognize it. Although Sarah's rhetoric on TV about "Spain has lost to Sweden in the European Championship, do you want the Spanish captain to be suppressed by Sweden's vice-team" is too effective.

Jose Mourinho claimed that Casillas was substituted just to put some pressure on him to ensure that his form did not slip. Others didn't believe that the Portuguese didn't care, but in the next game, Casillas returned to the main lineup, and even the Copa del Rey was handed over to Casillas.

The outside world was happy that the manager and the captain had finally come to an agreement, but Forlan understood that it was just a sign that Mourinho no longer trusted Adan. During the winter break, he may also add a goalkeeper to Real Madrid in the name of reinforcements, and in terms of options, if he still wants to put pressure on Cassie, perhaps he will also buy a player from Spain, or even Lafabrica, who may have played in the first team.

Fran felt that he could gradually guess the thinking of those capable people, which was really amazing.

"Where are there so many qualified candidates for Mourinho to pick?" Forlan told Guti what he thought, and Guti scoffed at it, believing that Forlan was taking it for granted that he was talking in his sleep. Forlan looked at the goalkeeper who came from Real Madrid and may have even been a substitute in the first team, "You don't need to have so many qualified candidates, just one." ”

Guti was silent over there, just waiting for Fran to reveal the answer directly. However, when Fran saw that he was so uncooperative, he snorted and did not tell him his guess.

La Liga ushered in the winter break in this situation, and the gap between Real Madrid and Barcelona in league points narrowed slightly before the break, but there was still a five-point difference. This gap is neither far nor close, and I don't know if we can catch up in the second half.

In the past two years, the old Al couple has given up caring about their son's relationship, and once suddenly mentioned, 'You go and ask Ronaldo about surrogacy', which made Fran break out in a cold sweat. The couple had made travel plans early for Christmas, and Fran was not happy to add to the joy of his sister's family, so he planned to stay at home alone for Christmas.

Someone in the team's liaison group was asking, 'Do you have to go home for Christmas?' and it was Karim Benzema who spoke, and everyone who did not answer the question unanimously ridiculed the Frenchman for breaking up with his girlfriend before Christmas and deserving of the holiday alone. Then the teammates released photos of themselves with their girlfriends, wives, parents, and children, and everyone smiled happily and proudly in the group photo, giving Benzema a heavy blow.

Benzema was silent for a long time, and suddenly Fran appeared, who has been in the team all year round with the fragrance of a single dog, despite the speculation that Fran kept a mistress or that he was gay, everyone in the team knew that the vice-captain was not for the sake of self-care, but purely too lazy to fall in love.

Forlan, who paddled in the perennial contact group, was brushed by Benzema's straight ball, and sent out a picture for a long time, which showed that the loading speed was slow from 3%, and even stopped when it was 95%.

Two minutes later, Kaka suddenly said, "I just stared at this broken picture that was stuck at 95% for almost two minutes." The group pounded the table and laughed, even though they were all caught by Fran's spoof GIF.

"Okay, okay, I'll show you!" Fran said helplessly, "two single dogs have a good time at Christmas." ”

The Real Madrid players looked forward to clicking on the picture, and saw Fran's dog with a similar name to him squatting on the ground wearing Real Madrid's No. 5 clothes and watching TV.

"What a couple of single dogs!" Marcelo laughed, saving the picture and planning to update Instagram and Twitter. Alonso joined in the fun, "Aren't you on good terms with that little fan girl of yours, she definitely won't go home at Christmas, wouldn't it be good for you to invite her to take it for the holidays?"

"Harvey, you should be a gentleman, okay!" After Fran finished speaking, he temporarily closed the group chat and went to knock Ronaldo privately, "Chris, ask you a question." "Let's ask the Portuguese about surrogacy.

I didn't see Raul, who dived all the year round after the transfer but did not quit the group, also popped up because of this topic, "That kid is too timid, he is crazy in his life to confess to a girl he thinks 'likes' him again." ”

This is really a long-term topic, even Ramos, who has been at Real Madrid for many years, only occasionally listens to the group of guys who were superstars to him back then, and there is a sad story about 'a prodigal son who suddenly realized after many loves, and sang a song only in exchange for a wordless rejection of the childhood plum'.

The winter break was followed by the Ballon d'Or ceremony, the European Championship won by the Swedish team, in order not to split the votes in the vote, Forlan did not let Carvajal run the award for himself, but publicly supported Ibrahimovic many times, believing that Ibrahimovic should be a natural thing to become the winner of the Ballon d'Or.

Compared with La Liga, which is fiercely competitive and good-looking, the Premier League and the Spanish Super League compete for hegemony, the development situation of Serie A is not very optimistic. Ibrahimovic has 34 goals and 8 assists in the league and 5 goals and 5 assists in the Champions League in AC Milan in the 1112 season.

What's more, Ibrahimovic is now in Ligue 1, although the league strength is not one of the best, but its influence on the Ballon d'Or should not be underestimated.

It can be seen from the previously announced top three lists, Messi, Ronaldo, Ibrahimovic, Chelsea, who won the Champions League, no one is in the top three, and Ronaldo is the key figure for Real Madrid to win the La Liga title, and Ibrahimovic is the captain of the Swedish team that won the European Cup.

When they met in Zurich, Ibrahimovic thought Fran was here to receive the Best 11 trophy, but Fran didn't explain it to him. The list of the best eleven is composed of '6 Real Madrid + 4 Barcelona + Ibrahimovic', and Chelsea's presence at this Ballon d'Or is about zero, which is embarrassing.

The goalkeeper position Casillas, the back line Pique, Forlan, Ramos, Marcelo, midfielders Alonso, Xavi, Iniesta, and the forward line Messi, Ibrahimovic, Ronaldo, a 433 lineup. Fran's position was so secrecy that not many people noticed that he didn't return to his position after receiving the best eleven, but waited backstage.

This year's host Gullit motioned for everyone to watch the clip of the women's football team in front of the stage, Fran adjusted his bow tie and took a deep breath, and after hearing the award-winning women's football girl express her speech, Gullit said, "Next, let's welcome the Ballon d'Or presenter to the stage, he has a deep or shallow connection with the three nominees in the audience, he is one of the best defenders in football today, and he is also a player I admire very much." Let's welcome, Francisco Álvarez. ”

As Gullit's words fell, Fran stepped forward from the backstage, and he stood in the position that the program team had vacated for him in advance, his expression was extremely serious, but those who knew him well knew that this was the result of his constant laughter. The screen began to show the wonderful performance of the three in 2012, and a member of FIFA and the head of the French newspaper "Le Teams" came to the stage to hand the golden ball and the envelope to Forlan, who deliberately looked at the golden ball for a few seconds and said with a smile, "Don't laugh at me, I haven't been so close to this trophy." There was a burst of good-natured laughter from the audience, and Fran opened the envelope in his hand, "The winner of the 2012 FIFA Golden Globe is—"

He glanced at the name in the envelope, understood that everything was settled, and looked in the direction of Ibrahimovic with a smile, "Zlatan Ibrahimovic, congratulations." ”

#妈呀, watching Fran present the award to Eevee, I was moved by the mystery #

- Moved +1, this 'congratulations' is probably the most sincere congratulations to the award presenters in the history of the award ceremony.

- I always thought that only previous Footballer of the Year winners would be the presenters, and the moment I saw Fran coming out of the backstage scared me.

- Hahaha, you also said that you were taken aback, you look at Fran's expression when he came out, it is obvious that Fran did not reveal the news that he was the guest of honor.

- But there are some small regrets, in fact, Forlan is also likely to win this Ballon d'Or, after all, Real Madrid is better than AC Milan in the club, and every time the Swedish team falls into a deadlock, Fran breaks it.

– Not necessarily, it's one thing to have a split or not, think about the 2010 Ballon d'Or, are you sure it's really Fran competition, he can beat Messi?

——————

"I'll go, this kid is right!" Guti muttered as he looked at the transfer news, "Forlan worked with him for another year in the second team, then he was a goalkeeper when Alvaro was captain, and in '05 he was transferred to the first team as Igor's backup... Spanish household register, youth training, first team playing... Come on, all in all. ”

On January 26, 2013, Diego López arrived at Real Madrid from Sevilla for a transfer price of 3.5 million euros.

The author has something to say: to be honest, before writing this... I didn't even think that I would subconsciously like Ibu so much?

Otherwise, how could I be so spicy to Eevee?

I don't think I know much about myself

[Extra: When Fran retires]

(xvi)

Newcastle's FA Cup came to an end, with Manchester City under Pep Guardiola in the final.

When he learned that the opponent was Manchester City, Mourinho called in fear and said that he could offer some experience in facing a sworn enemy as Manchester United manager. Franhaha laughed and replied, getting a lot of information from Benitez.

Carvajal called Forlan before the game, "I've been contacted by teams from the Championship and La Liga, but I think it's all going to happen after you win the FA Cup." "Wow, you believe in me so much, I'm so stressed. After saying this, Forlan thought for a few seconds and said, "I don't really want to stay in England, I'd better go to another league." ”

In the tactical set-up of the team, Benitez, as usual, sat under the stage like the players and did not say a word, the Spaniard seems to have always been so serious and old-fashioned, saying that he handed the FA Cup to Forlan, so he did not participate in it at all. At first, the club's top management thought it was nonsense, but they didn't expect the Championship team to reach the FA Cup final like this.

"Are you familiar with Manchester City?" Forlan asked, but Newcastle were certainly not familiar with Pep Guardiola's Manchester City team two years after being relegated to the Championship, and Forlan remembered the files Mourinho and Benitez had given him, and admitted, "Actually, I don't know Manchester City very well." ”

The players in the team who knew Fran well knew that Fran was definitely a good-natured coach when it came to coaching, and a few of them even whispered. Benitez frowned slightly, he still didn't appreciate Forlan's relationship with the players.

Forlan pressed his hand on the stage, and several people cooperated to quiet down, and Forlan said meaningfully, "Yes, I'm not familiar with Manchester City, but I'm more familiar with Pep Guardiola than most people in the Premier League... Do you feel a lot more confident about the finals?"

"No!" replied in unison.

————

"It's over! Congratulations to the Newcastle lads, who have already won the league ahead of schedule to secure a place in the Premier League next season, and then sniped Manchester City to win the FA Cup!

"When we waved goodbye to him two years ago, we said he was a little old for this green field. Now, two years later, we say hello to him again, he is too young for this green field. ”

On the sidelines, Fran was proud of himself on the sidelines, and when he wanted to insert his waist for a while, he was pushed in the direction of Guardiola by Benitez to do his post-match routine. Forlan's blazer was now taken off and placed in the dugout, and the white shirt showed off his muscles to the fullest, and he walked to shake hands with Pep Guardiola, smiling and saying "long time no see". Guardiola smiled helplessly and shook his head, "Seriously, you came back too soon." ”

Pep Guardiola was in a bad mood after losing the final, and Forlan didn't say much, walking on the pitch to celebrate with the players. I saw that the twenty or so young men who had just formed a circle seemed to have been discussed, and they scattered and lined up, and at the same time ran in the direction of Forlan, and after the Newcastle squad leader shouted a slogan, they fell to the ground at the same time in a classic sliding position.

The bizarre celebration of more than 20 people sliding at the same time not only stunned Fran, but also stunned everyone who watched the scene through the camera.

The next second, Fran unfastened the cufflinks on both sides of his wrists and pulled up the sleeves, "You stinky boys!"

"Groningen, most of the people in this team are Nordic, Denmark, Sweden, Iceland, Norway. They're more than happy to give you a chance, albeit only on a two-year contract for the time being. ”

"You mean, a team in the Eredivisie? The atmosphere in the Eredivisie is good, I like it. ”

"Yes, but you also have to remember that it's a team that will fall apart by the giants waving money when they play a result, the Eredivisie. 166 Reading Network
