183 Extra: When Fran Retires (8)

1、

When he actually lifted the Champions League trophy, Ibrahimovic felt like he was dreaming. It's not that he is obsessed with this Champions League trophy, it's just... Well, he thought Fran was great, but he didn't expect him to be able to bring Groningen like this.

He was probably made for football? Ibu suddenly felt such a feeling.

The Groningen players who were celebrating wildly on the Amsterdam pitch crowded around the manager, and Forlan worked hard for a long time to dispel their desire to lift himself up to celebrate, and drove away a group of little bastards, only to see Ibrahimovic, who did not go to cheer and celebrate with the crowd.

Fran walked over and put his hand on Ibrahimovic's shoulder, smiling a little bit, "Well, I told you, give you a Champions League title?" Eevee tilted his head to look at Fran, and after a few seconds said, "Then it's time for me to retire."

Fran, who heard Ibrahimovic's retirement announcement, although he had anticipated this possibility before, still couldn't accept it calmly when he heard the reality. He felt like he had a thousand words to say, but in the end he just smiled silently and patted Ibrahimovic on the shoulder, which probably marked the end of his playing days.

"Is my last celebration handsome?" Ibrahimovic was referring to the 360-degree one-legged jump after he scored the only goal of the game. Forlan didn't get Ibrahimovic's deep meaning at first, but when he said this, Forlan remembered the 'most classic celebration of Swedish star Brolin' that he had specially designed with Ibrahimovic.

Thinking of this, Fran still couldn't hold back the red eyes.

The summer transfer window has just opened, and there is a lot of trade interest pouring in. The first to leave Groningen was Casaro, who painted him a Champions League pie last season, and this time he became the most talked-about star this summer with the title of Champions League winner's leading scorer, and no one can stop him from returning to Real Madrid.

Vanset complimented him, saying that he was a rookie coach, but he was mature and calm, not at all like a newcomer in the field. Forlan chuckled and didn't say much, the club had confirmed the retirement of Ibrahimovic and Robben, and the lively Groningen market had just opened.

"Barcelona want to package and trade Lascelles and Aarau." Vanset looked at Forlan's expression as he spoke, and Forlan looked calm, as if he didn't feel any sadness about the sudden disintegration of the big team he had worked so hard to pull. He can even consider the issue from Vansette's point of view, "Barcelona are short of people at the back, they will definitely spend a lot of money to restructure this summer break, and you can increase the transfer price of both of them appropriately, including the salaries of the two of them... But that's their agent's job. ”

Fran said goodbye to Van Seyt, sat down in his office, straightened his suit, and went to Mr. Chairman in Groningen.

Mr. Chairman was not at all surprised to see Fran, who sat calmly across from Fran, not like a good-natured uncle who watched training from time to time, but like a businessman at last. His first words were, "We signed a three-year contract, now it's two years, if you want to leave, let's get together, if you want to stay, I'll give you enough transfer funds for you..."

"I want to leave." Fran said, and Mr. President was not surprised. In fact, Fran has made him feel that this step has been exaggerated, he is actually not at all like the successful people who have played for life in big clubs and then turned coaches, they are at ease with what they encounter, and there are ways of survival of big clubs in big clubs, and there are rules of operation of small clubs in small clubs.

He will surely become one of the best champions in football, but his relationship with Groningen will probably end there.

"You know what, as long as the Eredivisie can't keep players, it's hard to have a title in the Eredivisie. As long as it is difficult for the Eredivisie to have a title, the Eredivisie will not be able to retain players. Fran shook his head as he spoke, smiling helplessly, but it was basically an established fact that such a sudden dark horse was carved up during the transfer season.

"Did you come to the Eredivisie with the intention of reviving the Eredivisie?" Mr. Chairman looked at Fran and shook his head, "But my Groningen is still Groningen." ”

Groningen has gained a lot of new fans over the past two years, and the chairman understands that the club will be under constant fire if its results plummet in the next two seasons. But it doesn't matter, after this time, they can still be the old Eredivisie club with full cycling, not as much attention as the tennis team, and low attendance.

He can happily take it all as a dream, Groningen or Groningen.

"If I cared so much if Groningen had a title or not, if there was a Eredivisie title, Forlan, I wouldn't have chosen to have you as the manager of this club in the first place, would I?" After all, Fran seemed to have only mixed up in a cup competition at that time, without any experience as a manager, "The revival of the Eredivisie is too ambitious for me at Groningen. ”

Fran silently digested what Mr. Chairman said, and after a while, he got up and stretched out his hand to Mr. President, "Happy cooperation." ”

"It's a pleasure to work with."

Carvajal spent the entire summer break looking for work for Fran.

In fact, after learning of Fran's peaceful breakup with Groningen, many clubs threw olive branches to Fran. Some are clubs in the middle of the top five leagues, and some are bottom-ranked league champions.

On the Real Madrid side, President Florentino personally made a phone call, and the two of them did not talk about club matters, but mostly chatted about daily trivial matters. Carvajal sat aside until the phone was left and still confused, and the next day it was revealed that Zidane had gone to coach the French team and Castile coach Guti had taken over as Real Madrid coach.

When Forlan saw the news, he was discussing with Carvajal if he could write a cover letter to Barcelona, who had been looking for a manager replacement, which was roughly as follows:

Francisco Alvarez, a Real Madrid meritorious player, has countless experience in stopping Barcelona to win, has a thorough study of Barcelona's lineup and tactics, is good at dealing with established players, and is also good at tuning. Teach young players. In his two-year managerial career, he won two Eredivisie trophies, two Dutch Cups and a European Cup (PS: Barcelona in the final). Evaluated as a 'Western Super League killer' by industry insiders, he will show amazing explosiveness when facing off against Western Super League teams.

Barcelona, one of the Western Super Leagues and the loser of the Champions League final, threw it directly into the trash when it saw this letter full of malice and ridicule rather than a cover letter.

In fact, there is a reason why Barcelona managers are more accustomed to choosing coaches who have countless connections with Barcelona, because Barcelona's team system is mostly inherited and routine, and foreign coaches may not be as convincing as Barcelona players.

It stands to reason that Xavi should be the best candidate to take over, but unfortunately the club thinks that Xavi is better to take over the youth team first, and the selection of Barcelona's first team is more like an excess before Xavi took office.

But the excessors are not so easy to find.

However, Barcelona confirmed a replacement at the beginning of August, and none of this has anything to do with Forlan.

Last season's champion coach Francisco Álvarez lost his job, which is poignant.

Seeing that the leagues were back in action, the relaxed Fran even picked up his dusty comic book again, and Carvajal hated it, and finally gave him a temporary job as a commentator for a single settlement. Instead of staying at home and growing mushrooms, it is better to go out and make a lot of money.

Of course, the partner who commented on the La Liga match was Casillas, which Carvajal did not expect. Mr. Agent secretly poked and poked to contact the partner if he could let Fran and Cassie apart, but it turned out that Cassie was deliberately contacted in the case of determining Fran, and what he wanted was the chemistry between the two people.

your chemistry! Explain what kind of chemistry you want in the game!

But the agent's twists and turns don't care much about Fran, who is not a talkative person when he interacts with strangers without involving his profession, and it is really good to find a partner who is familiar and can not be more acquainted. What's more, letting these two people explain La Liga may expose the gossip and anecdotes of so-and-so players when they were young.

But to the surprise of the partners, compared to exposing the gossip of the current players of La Liga, these two people are better at exposing each other's black history in commentary games.

"Ah, Villarreal's goalkeeper fell to the ground again, reminding me that Igor was a crying bag when you were a kid, crying and falling to the ground with tears in your eyes." Franto said casually with his cheeks crossed.

"Recently, the media has been paying attention to Tiblin's new relationship, and as for someone who is a senior and former head coach of Tiblin's national team, it seems that there have been several years of window period, you see, even the paparazzi don't gossip about you." Casillas said and patted Fran, who was sitting unsitting, to make him sit up straight, but Fran was lazy but still obediently straightened his waist and muttered, "When you were young, you didn't have two flowers and grass for three days?" ”

Netizens who watched the simultaneous commentary of these two people on the Internet didn't pay attention to the current situation of the game, and listened to the live situation of the two people throughout the whole process of "yooooooooo~".

Later, as the number of spectators increased, even the task of commenting on Barcelona's Champions League group stage was attributed to Forlan and Cassie. Netizens said that this was because the upper echelons were afraid that the two people would brag about the whole process of the Real Madrid game for no reason, so they asked them to find fault with Barcelona.

But Barcelona at the beginning of the new season really doesn't need Francasi to deliberately find faults, the new head coach and Barcelona players are not running in well, not to talk about the league rankings, it is difficult to break through from the Champions League play-offs, and the performance in the Champions League group stage is also difficult to say.

Cassie and Forlan looked at Barcelona in chaos on the field, but they were not as happy as everyone expected, but frowned in unison. In the past, Casillas was mainly commentatory, and Fran complained a few words from time to time next to him, which was the finishing touch. As a result, Forlan has been babbling this time, "Their midfield may be better if Xavi β–‘β–‘ for another two years", "Let Ruscelles assist Pique in two central defenders? Isn't it good to admit that Pique is old", "I can't believe they bought Aarau and just put him on the bench? ”

Casillas listened to Forlan talk eloquently about Barcelona's lineup, and he didn't need to look at the information in his hand to analyze every substitute in the team clearly, and the hatred in his words was clear. Hearing Casillas keep looking sideways at Forlan, everything he said poked at the heart of Barcelona, not so much from the perspective of commentary, but from the professional perspective of the head coach.

This made many Barcelona fans complain, "Now that the game is bad like this, I think it's better to let the Real Madrid family coach Barcelona." At least they have proved their strength and know La Liga teams in particular, Barcelona. ”

This statement was even more dramatic when Barcelona finished third in the Champions League group stage and were eliminated. Even Forlan didn't expect Barcelona to face such a situation after a high transfer fee during the summer break, "Does that mean Barcelona is going to play in the Europa League?" ”

Casillas and Fran looked at each other.

From the moment Barcelona was forced into the Europa League, the departure of the Barcelona manager has become a given.

Barcelona frantically searched for a managerial successor, and at the same time received a cover letter from Francisco Alvarez.

This time the club will not be able to treat this as a joke in the form of a resume, especially when Xavi comes to the club's hierarchy with a black face and says that someone is serious about coming to coach Barcelona and wants the club to think about it.

The BarΓ§a management fell silent.

"Do you think you have any advantage in coaching Barcelona?"

Fran thought about this question for a while, and finally said truthfully, although he felt a little provocative:

"Can I teach you tiki-taka?"

The author has something to say: I actually think it's good to write the coaching article here...

Because I don't know what it would be like if Franlan went to coach Barcelona...

It's up to you

If you think that's enough, I'll write an old cadre single chapter and an old friend gang blind date single chapter 2333 (what the hell is this?) οΌ‰

If I want to see the follow-up development of the coaching chapter, I will try to continue to write coaching, and after that, there will only be a single chapter of the old cadre. 166 Reading Network
