During the winter break, Fran attended an interview in Madrid. Fran was not very happy to participate in these talkative shows even though he was on vacation, but he accepted it when he heard Carvajal say that he was not alone and that he was accompanied by three friends.

The television station took a step to bring in four guests, Raúl González, José Gutiérrez, Igor Casillas and Francisco Álvarez.

Among them, Guti is already considered Zidane's successor, while Raul and Casey are focused on the club's top management, and the three Real Madrid insiders are smiling in unison at the troublemaker who is scurrying from the Premier League to the Eredivisie. Fran sat next to Cassie and was bombarded by the three of them, his expression was calm and earnest, and after a while, he switched to his side first, "Jose, the two of us are vice captains, and now we are both coaches, this is the real alignment of interests, okay?"

Guti and Fran high-fived behind Casillas, and the host was amused next to him, "There's a question, if I want to go to Casstilla's game the day after tomorrow, should I find Guti or the two of you?" asked Raul and Cassie, who were looking at the suits.

Guti, as the head coach, and Raul Cassie, who is in the management, were stunned and didn't answer, Fran waved his hand in front of the host with a huge movement, "If you want to go to Casstilla, you have to find me? I also have tickets!" Cassie smiled and took back Fran's arm from the clearance, "I testify to this, he has tickets for every game." Fran pouted and fell straight onto Cassie.

"Then I'm going to ask you Fran," the host looked at Fran with a wicked smile, "If Guti becomes the head coach of Real Madrid, do you want Guti to do it after class or do you want him to keep going?"

There was a lot of talk from the audience, and Guti patted Fran on the shoulder, "It's time to validate our friendship. Fran touched his nose and looked at the other three who were obviously watching how he was going to respond, "I hope he will do it for a long time," he said, adding as he looked at Guti's grinning expression, "If possible, of course." ”

Raul covered his face and laughed, what does it mean if possible, how can the Real Madrid coach last long, but the question Fran you said seems to mean that Jose can't teach for long.

Guti raised his hand to pat Fran through Cassie, who nimbly dodged a few times and hit Cassie mostly on him, and Casillas rolled his eyes unabashedly. Seeing that these people were making trouble again, the host hurriedly took control of the scene and asked, "Then what are your future career plans?" Fran replied in a not very sure tone, "I probably want to go back to La Liga, right?"

"Coaching La Liga, isn't that going to be the opponent of Real Madrid?" The host pretended to be surprised, "What do you think of Coach Gu?" Guti waved his hand in a chic manner to show that he didn't look at Forlan in his eyes, Fran leaned his head over, and his tone was not big or small enough to be included, "You're not afraid that I will coach Barcelona?"

As soon as the words fell, Raul, who was sitting at the other end, grabbed the sofa pillow he was leaning on and smashed it on Fran's head, Fran covered his head and leaned back on Casillas pitifully, Cassie motioned to the host to move on to the next topic with a headache.

The host did not continue to talk about this topic in depth, but focused on the emotional topics that have always been asked in Fran's interviews. Fran leaned back on the couch with a headache, listening to the three friends next to him talking about Fran's soulmate's request.

While Groningen became the only seedling in the Eredivisie in the Champions League, the league table fluctuated within the first division. The top three points in the league are not much different, a round of games is sure that the first place in the league and the third place in the league are reversed, the club's management for the team to be able to fight in the Champions League full support, after all, the Champions League results are closely related to the team's profitability, but the league is also negligent, Groningen, who won the Eredivisie for the first time last year, has the ambition of winning a wave of league titles.

It may be that the head coach suddenly fell ill due to too much pressure a while ago to the players, and it was excusable to take care of them during the illness. While it was obvious that the players had more respect for him, Fran always felt that they were not so much obedient and respectful to themselves as players and managers... I always feel like I'm being treated like a mascot.

Fran himself didn't know whether to be angry or laughing.

Away to the Westphalen Stadium in Dortmund, the home atmosphere of this Bundesliga powerhouse still scared the young players of Groningen who were mentally prepared. In contrast, Groningen's home stadium, which has only increased its attendance due to its good record this year, is really not a threat. Fran himself disagreed, but somewhat ignored the psychology of the players. In the first half, it was rare for the boys who were not afraid of the sky and the earth to let go of their hands and feet, and the more so many Dott fans deliberately created the atmosphere of the devil's home stadium, Fran thought, how good it would be if there was also some technical timeout in the football game.

0-0 until halftime, in the locker room, Fran swept around the lads who bowed their heads and admitted their mistakes. He simply didn't put Ibrahimovic and Robben in the squad in this game, not to underestimate Dortmund, but the next league game against Ajax is also the highlight. Now I can see that the youth army is not good, although it is full of vitality, but it is easy to lose its rhythm without anyone shaking the field.

Fran patted Ruscelles on the shoulder, "Don't let these Germans really think I've taught a bunch of soft eggs. "Then I didn't continue to agitate, and began to lay out the strategic arrangement for the second half.

At the restart of the second half, Ruscelles slid a clean tackle to keep both the ball and the man in the back of Dort's attack against Groningen. The referee saw that there was no kick on his feet, and even if the Dort midfielder fell and did not get up, it did not indicate that the game was suspended. Fran stood on the sidelines listening to the deafening boos coming from behind him and pinched his teeth, shamelessly feeling that Russells had a deep understanding of his true biography.

After Dort's 0-0 draw at home, Groningen's midfield was □□ hot in midfield, and the goalkeeper blocked a three-legged shot from the frame of the goal, and when Robben created the only goal of the game, the young goalkeeper took the best player of the game.

Seeing Groningen's successful promotion to the Champions League semi-finals, Mr. Chairman's crazy shaking arm celebration, the athletic director next to him, Vansette, predicted in his mind whether the club would become a player supermarket at the end of the season, and wondered if Forlan, the manager, could still stay this time. Some players on the pitch are happy to see their opponents in the semi-finals, whether it is Real Madrid, Barcelona or Bayern, some players feel that Groningen's performance this season can make more clubs pay attention to them, and some players may be able to win back the Champions League title if they can go smoothly at the end of their careers.

Forlan tidied up his outfit a little and went to shake hands with the Dortmund coach and the referee team on duty to thank him.

Groningen's semi-final opponents were cheered in the dressing room as they were 'as they wished' to be sent to Real Madrid. Forlan had been struggling with what to say the day before to make the players relaxed and positive, and it was clear that they were much more excited than nervous in the training session. It doesn't seem to be thinking about 'whether Groningen can qualify for the Champions League against Real Madrid', but there is a kind of excitement to be on a different stage.

Fran couldn't help but sigh, how could it be a little different from what he imagined. It seems that in the face of Real Madrid, the only one who is most nervous and anxious is himself.

He had long ago never imagined that he would be a rival at the Santiago Bernabeu and Real Madrid, but that was the possibility when he knew it would be difficult to coach Real Madrid.

But it's fast. Fran thought to himself, touching his chin.

In fact, he is the only one who thinks it is fast? The performance of Groningen's dark horse on the European stage has surprised countless people in the industry. It looks like the group of death, all the way to beat Manchester United Atletico Milan to become the first in the group, the manager and players are obviously not used to the weather in Russia, but they can still win the game, Dortmund's devil's home stadium is even more unusual, originally it seems that Groningen is bound to overturn, who knows that people still □□ entered the semi-finals.

The people who eat melons have said that it is not that they think too much, but that the sudden performance of the Groningen team is too champion, as if the team as a whole has a 'destined' title.

"How does it feel to be back at the Bernabeu?" Zidane, who met before the official start of the game, still had the psychology of paying attention to his former teammates and players, and Forlan was a little nervous, and this rare state of preparation made Zidane amazed. Forlan knew that the court camera had been aimed at him, and he didn't tell Zidanedo, turning back to his position.

This is the Santiago Bernabeu Stadium and this time he is a guest.

Fran remembered what he had said to Casaro earlier:

"This club, you can only be noticed by him and conquered by him if you have beaten him before. ”

It's a shame that Francisco Álvarez, a player, never conquered this club.

When learning that Groningen overturned Real Madrid and would play Barcelona in the Champions League final, Xavi's first reaction was not to see the excitement of the rival Real Madrid, but to subconsciously worry about whether Barcelona could win the championship smoothly.

Xavi gritted his teeth, what did he think at the beginning, thinking that coming to Qatar to play football and coach half as an intern could gain a lot of experience as a head coach, and later even got into the Qatar national team as an assistant coach. In fact, it stands to reason that this path is not wrong, Xavi has now accumulated experience in the national team and is ready to return to Barcelona's youth team.

But the crux of the problem is that there is no one around him who has finished mixing with Mourinho Benitez as an assistant coach and won a Premier League Cup by the way, and Real Madrid has won the whole process with the coaching qualification assessment, and it seems that a team in the middle and lower reaches of the Eredivisie will win the Eredivisie and the Champions League as a comparison.

Real Madrid F4 participated in the talk show Xavi also glanced at a few times, and most people disdained what Forlan said about coming to Barcelona to coach, after all, no matter how you look at this guy, it's just funny. But Harvey thought he knew Fran, and he really didn't think those words were just to pave the way for Guti.

Is this bastard really planning to come to Barcelona to cause trouble for the Catalans?

The venue for the Champions League final was set at the Amsterdam Stadium in the Netherlands, and no Dutch believed that the long-lonely-lone Eredivisie team would be able to reach the Champions League final. Compared to Barcelona, Groningen is of course close to Amsterdam, and the club's crazy publicity has allowed its own fans to go to the scene to cheer for the team, and the fans have also responded to the club's call very positively, as if they want to make Amsterdam their home stadium.

Therefore, when Fran walked into the Amsterdam Stadium with the coaching staff and saw the huge caricature of himself as the prototype pulled up little by little in the stands, he actually had no waves in his heart, and he still wanted to laugh.

Barcelona's captain is now hanging on Pique, but the almost 35-year-old captain was not sent by the manager in this crucial Champions League final. There are also La Masia from Barcelona on the field, most of them are concentrated in the midfield position, perhaps as the mainstream saying a few years ago, a Messi played in the club for ten years, and forced away more than a dozen Messi who overlapped positions.

Perhaps this also tells us that luck and strength can only succeed. Fran thought to herself.

Barcelona shocked the world by having a tumultuous season in the league and only qualifying for the Champions League play-offs. The La Liga giants also seem to have reached the stage of the club's player disconnection, which is very different from the mature and tacit understanding of a group of talents that Real Madrid gathered a few years ago, like the situation of the two teams at the beginning of the 21st century.

Barcelona faced Groningen in the Champions League final, and the La Liga media believes that Atletico will not show mercy to Barcelona in the face of Real Madrid.

The teenager in the stands ignored the chatter of the agent next to him, staring at the two teams in the stadium, he was no stranger to Groningen in the Eredivisie, he was unfamiliar with this team that seemed to be comfortable against Barcelona in La Liga.

The teenager was silent when the agent said that "Barcelona submitted an intention to trade with Feyenoord", and when the agent watched the substitute Ibrahimovic create a crucial goal, the teenager was silent, and this silent rendering made the agent stand out in the frantic cheers of Groningen at the end of the game.

"What the hell do you think, Shaquille?" the agent was confused, "Don't you really want to go to Barcelona?

Nunu, a teenager named Shaquille, swallowed back the sentence 'That's what my dad wants me to go to Barcelona', "Wait and see who is the new manager of Barcelona." ”

Groningen were snapped up by clubs waving cheques during the summer break at the end of that season, giving the whole of Europe another glimpse of the power of the Eredivisie players' supermarket.

Groningen, who won the Champions League, the league and the Dutch Cup in a fantastic season, have since truly become a dream that has never been repeated.

The author has something to say: I finally ended the Groningen chapter ... Want to vomit blood,,,

Ah, there are about three more chapters in the Barcelona chapter?
