Chapter 216

That's right, Juan didn't contact Cristiano, but he didn't know what was wrong with the child, and suddenly he didn't answer his phone calls or his messages......

Each time, though, he held back.

It's not that he doesn't want to go, but after all, he is also the manager of a team, even if he goes to see him as a friend, but if he is not noticed by the media, whether it is Deportivo La Coruna, Manchester United, the lord, Cristiano, and himself, it will have a very bad impact.

He knew that the position he was in really couldn't make him act rashly, so he could only call and text, and if the other side ignored him, there was nothing he could do.

Seeing that Juan's expression was wrong, Tom immediately changed the topic very discerningly: "Juan, Deportivo performed very well in today's game, do you have anything to say?" ”

Juan collected his emotions and smiled, "There's nothing to say." ”

"......" Tom opened his mouth and whispered with a wry smile, "Boss, can you give me a little face, and say something to let me go back on an errand?" ”

"I'm happy with the performance of the players tonight, Deportivo gave it all their fighting spirit...... Juan paused, "that's all. ”

"Huh?" Tom was dumbfounded.

"Leave some for me to say at the press conference, after all, that's all I can say every time." Juan waved his hand helplessly, Tom was stunned and wanted to laugh, but still nodded: "Congratulations to Morientes for scoring two goals on the court today." ”

Juan narrowed his eyes at him, "I'm serious, Tom......"

"Huh?"

"You really shouldn't be in the mixed interview area, but at the press conference." Juan smiled and waved his hand, "I'll go first, you can come quickly." ”

"Huh??" Before Tom could react, Juan had already left.

Magath had been being interviewed by the side, and was surprised to see that Juan had gotten rid of the reporter so quickly, and hurriedly ended the interview and walked quickly to his side: "So fast? I thought you had a lot to say today. ”

"There may be a lot of them, but it's not for me to stay here." Juan replied calmly, and seriously, he wasn't in the mood to talk nonsense with these media at the moment.

While it is clear that the time is now to go down the road to commercial football, and Deportivo does need commercial football to fill its treasury, he himself is very cold to journalists.

He was already troubled and troubled by reporters during his year at Manchester United, so even if he knew that reporters could use it well, Juan was still a little disheartened.

…… What's more, Tom's words just now directly broke his good mood and made him suddenly uninterested.

So when he was on the road, he could still talk and laugh with Magath, but as soon as he sat on the press table, he lost the interest in talking and laughing, but he sat here out of a responsible attitude for the team's image.

'I'm very happy with Deportivo LaCoruna's performance today, our players did their best to get this result today, Bayern Munich are very serious opponents, but we were a little luckier today.

Juan Díaz has publicly denied the term "lucky" before, but at this time he used it, but it was more of a joke, after all, everyone saw what this game was, it was difficult enough, and Deportivo did have some more luck.

But even in such a relaxed environment, there are some people who ask uncomfortable questions, such as about Portillo's performance on the pitch today.

At the mention of Portillo, Juan wanted to frown again, after all, Portillo gave him a huge shock on the court today, so Juan hesitated for a moment when reporters mentioned him.

'Portillo has no problem, the most important thing for him now is to get back to his form and this season Portillo has always been able to help us score.

He said it very realistically, after all, Portillo has indeed scored a lot of goals in Deportivo this season, especially in the first half of the season, the entire Deportivo goal is almost based on him and Diego Forlan.

In the second half of the season, although the number of goals he scored decreased due to the arrival of Morientes, he still maintained a relatively high efficiency, but at the end of the season, Portillo's state declined slightly, but the media was calm and never came up with it.

After all, no matter what, it is possible for a player to be in good or bad condition, after all, no one is perfect, if you can always maintain your peak, there will not be so many regrets in football, and similarly, if anyone can maintain your peak, then some "old and strong" players in football will not be so respected.

"And I personally don't pay attention to his mistakes in the game, players always make mistakes in Qiqihuh, but I care more about what we can do as a team and how far we can go as a whole, rather than taking out one player to blame him."

Juan's statement made Magath on the side look appreciative, after all, as a manager, he really didn't want one of his players to be blamed by the call of 77, even if these players might have made some mistakes on the pitch in the first place.

And it's really good that Juan said that, apparently having made his own decision about Portillo's mistakes on the pitch, rather than venting his anger and disappointment.

However, Juan was obviously in a worse mood after this question, and in the face of most people's questions, he only chose two brief answers at random, and then left early, and the reporters in the audience looked at each other.

"Uh......" someone finally couldn't help but whisper to his colleagues next to him, "Didn't Deportivo win the game today?" Juan should be happy today......"

"yes, you said you were happy when you first got off the field?"

Tom couldn't help but smile wryly as he watched his colleagues discuss in front of him.

He is very smart, of course Juan was very happy when he came out, but after the two problems that he didn't have the eyesight to see, Juan's mood seemed to be like a big dive, and he was not stupid, of course he knew that it was his own problem.

But what happened to Cristiano Ronaldo?

Tom always felt that there was a remedy at this point, and the only thing to do was with the Manchester United lad, so he quickly avoided the eyes and ears before making a phone call to his colleagues at the UK headquarters.

"Hey, it's me...... Give me all the recent news from Cristiano Ronaldo, no matter what kind of me want! I'll explain to you tomorrow what I want this for...... Good! Trouble! ”

After all, they are news media people, and their speed is still very fast, so Juan received a message from Tom while sitting on the players' bus and pondering.

He glanced down at the sender, frowned, put the phone in his pocket, and then looked up.

"I don't know what you mean, Javier."

The players were already in the car at this time, and there was still enough space in the players' buses, so in order to show respect for the coaching staff, the players here in Deportivo La Coruna sat in the back, while the coaching staff sat in the front.

But when he got in the car today, Juan couldn't help but raise an eyebrow.

Usually there was a person sitting next to the seat he was sitting in, and that person was Javier Portillo.

When he saw that person, Juan subconsciously felt a little headache, but he still sat down with a frown, looked at the person in front of him and asked what he just said.

Portillo was also very direct about this, he raised an eyebrow: "What do you mean? ”

Deportivo La Coruna's home victory today left the fans rejoicing, who gathered outside the bus to sing loudly and everyone's faces glowed.

Deportivo La Coruna, for the first time in history, reached the final of the Champions League!

It's a memorable moment for them, so the fans are singing and dancing around the bus, even happier than they are winning, and they don't think much about what the result will be now, at least tonight, in their hearts, Deportivo La Coruna is already the champion!

On the bus where the fans looked up, the players were also very excited, waving at them through the bus glass, which was enough to push the atmosphere to the peak again and again.

However, at the front of the car, at the curtain closed, Juan and Portillo sat quietly, both looking straight ahead with calm expressions.

At this time, even the coaching staff would not choose to disturb them, and the coaching staff led by Allen also drilled directly into the back at this time and joined the players' celebrations, anyway, they didn't want to get involved in Juan's affairs......

Juan frowned and looked at him for a while, and finally couldn't help but speak: "At this time, you should go and celebrate with them, it's finally the final." ”

Portillo smiled: "Does it have anything to do with me?" You can see my performance in this game. ”

"I think you've had a pretty good performance in this game." Juan coughed lightly, "It's not to comfort you, I really think so." ”

Portillo's performance today can indeed be called good, although there is not an assist or a goal, but in terms of involving the defense, he has contributed a lot, if he is not involved in the Bayern Munich defense in the back, maybe Morientes will not have a chance to raise his foot to shoot.

So although there is no performance in the statistics, Portillo can be said to have contributed a lot in this game, and it is not as "in a slump" as others say.

He just restrained his aggressiveness and did his best to do what Juan had set out for him - a 4-3-2-1 lineup, with Morientes at the front, and of course he would do his best to create space for Morientes to attack.

Portillo smiled: "In the eyes of those who understand the ball, this is the case, but in the eyes of those 'who understand the ball', what do you think?" ”

Juan was stunned for a moment, then understood.

Portillo is also a type of person, those people only pay attention to the data of the game and the excitement on the field, once it is not exciting enough, or the data is not very good-looking, they will make a lot of nonsense, saying "so-and-so has fallen" and "so-and-so Jiang Lang is exhausted", and at the same time, when the head coach announces the tactics, he will also show that he understands everything to point out, but they are actually half-, they don't understand anything, they just laugh and are generous.

"I know those people...... I didn't expect you to pay attention to what these people were saying, though. Juan's mood at this moment was also a little relaxed, he coughed lightly and looked at the people around him with a smile.

In the general football world, professionals will not pay attention to these clowns, even if it is a "tactical encyclopedia" such as Sky Sports' Dean, they will laugh and laugh and go with him, after all, those people are not people who have really worked the field, they want to command the giants with just one mouth, it depends on whether they have that ability.

Most of the managers are sophisticated people, and the players are not stupid and don't pay much attention to this kind of person who can only move his mouth and move his hands, which is why Juan finds it interesting - Portillo cares about this?

Portillo shook his head solemnly and pointed at it mysteriously: "I don't care about those people, as long as I can hide from them." ”

Juan was stunned for a moment, and the smile on his face disappeared without a trace.

He wasn't stupid, and of course he knew in an instant who Portillo was talking about.

Florentino, president of Real Madrid.

Although it is rude to say this, Florentino really doesn't know much about the ball, otherwise, which chairman would sell Redondo, force Makelele away, not pay attention to the academy, and even bring a group of veterans from his own team to the end of the transfer?

No chairman who understands the ball will allow any of the above to happen.

Whose team will kick them away when they have Makelele and Redondo? Broken brain?? Even though they are at the end of their careers, their experience is impressive enough that if they are willing to stay in the club, it will be an unspeakable asset to the club.

The experience of the veteran and the ability of the veteran, for a team, this is accumulation.

Juan now fully understands why Portillo didn't show any intention of attacking on the pitch today, even though the football has been passed to him several times, but he just doesn't attack, and even a few times he has stood on a great attacking point, and still passes the football away.

He seemed to understand a little now......

Understand a ball!!

Juan pressed the green tendons on his forehead that couldn't help but beat, and his voice was low: "Javier Portillo......"

"Yes." At this time, Portillo, who had already explained everything, had no psychological pressure at all, and directly gave him a big smile, looking at him smiling like that, Juan couldn't get angry, so he could only hold back silently, and only spit out a weak question for a long time.

"Aren't you, are you going back to Real Madrid?"

Portillo was stunned for a moment: "Who said that?" ”

"That's what your performance tells me." Juan said slowly, "At that time, you said, this is not a dream......"

"Oh, that's?" Portillo was full of joy at this moment, for the sake of himself being able to really get to Juan, and for the fact that Juan seemed to be unable to ease up now.

You know, he's known Juan for a long, long time, but it's the first time he's seen Juan like this! If it weren't for his own reason telling him that he couldn't be too proud, otherwise he would have been avenged to death, he would have taken out his mobile phone to record this scene a long time ago.

"Don't you feel like you're dreaming? That Real Madrid actually bowed to us! ”

Portillo lowered his voice and said this, and Juan was stunned for a long time.

“…… You think it's incredible, so it's like a dream? ”

"yes, otherwise what's the reason?" Portillo coughed lightly, "Actually, I didn't expect it, it's only been one season, and Real Madrid has already bowed to me...... Eh, when did you say Florentino called you back? ”

Juan was stunned for a moment, wondering why he remembered Florentino's meaningful smile when he received the Copa del Rey trophy that day.

"This ...... Maybe one day. Juan muttered, then frowned, "So Real Madrid's offer?" ”

"Of course I refused directly, I don't have any idea of going back to the bench." Portillo said directly, he still knows very well in his heart that the current Real Madrid is no longer the Real Madrid he was familiar with before, and there is no good fruit to eat when he goes back at this time.

And he knows one thing better - in Deportivo La Coruna, he is the absolute mainstay, but what about Real Madrid? He must be an absolute bench, a proper water cooler keeper, no doubt about it.

In front of Michael Owen, Raul, Figo, Ronaldo and other forwards, how many chances can he have on the court?

He didn't know, and he didn't want to know, that the last person to go back was called Morientes, and he had used his own example to teach a heavy lesson to all the Castilla academy players who wanted to go back to Real Madrid.

At this time, Real Madrid went back to consume their youth, although they want to go back, but what is the use of going back at this time?

For the sake of their careers, no one will go back.

Of course, there is another point for Portillo, which is that he is comfortable with Juan, and he does not have to think about the interpersonal relationship in the dressing room or who he should pass the ball to.

It's a place where there's unity, there's harmony between top and bottom, there's calm in the dressing room, and there's a lot to learn – Portillo isn't stupid, he can certainly tell, and he always learns something from the big guys around him, whether it's the game or what he's doing.

Maybe you can learn it at Real Madrid, but in that kind of atmosphere, let alone learning things, it is estimated that you even walk with your head down.

Portillo explained his reasons in a crackle, and even felt a little thirsty after saying that, Juan silently wrung a bottle of water and handed it to him, and Portillo took it and drank it with his head up.

"Poof...... cough cough !! ”

There was a sudden heart-rending coughing sound from the front, and the rear personnel who were happily interacting with the fans outside suddenly shifted their attention to the front - in fact, they didn't pay much attention to the outside, but most of them were secretly paying attention to the situation in front.

So they heard the sound of "bang bang" palm slap on the back - to be honest, they all listened to this sound with a little chest tightness and back pain, especially Aimar, whose body was relatively weak in resisting blows, almost rolled his eyes, if he was slapped like this, he would have already been out of breath - and their little coach Juan Díaz calmly with some smiles: "Drink slowly, no one will rob you, if you like it, there is still ...... here"

？？？

The players glanced at each other, not knowing what Juan said, but Allen reacted, shuddered, and his expression was a little frightened: "Speaking of which, Juan brought a bottle of mustard mixed with water when he got into the car......"

Suddenly, there was a chill on the players.

Anything is good, mustard mixed with water???

"Amen, it's better to mess with the boss less in the future......" David Lewis drew a cross with a solemn face, and the others nodded along with each other.

It's to provoke Juan a little less, who knows if he has already prepared a post-move for Shi Shiran to just wait for someone to throw himself into the net?!

Juan looked at Portillo, who was flushed, and patted him on the shoulder.

It's too early to fight him, young man!

Seeing that the two people in front of him also made a fuss, the whole car let go of their hands and feet to play with each other, and sang songs along the way and returned to the training ground to disband.

The smile on Juan's face didn't stop until he was about to go to bed after talking to Casillas, only to find that he couldn't sleep.

He stared at the ceiling of his room, silent for a long time, before gritting his teeth and reaching for his phone, sending a message with the force he wanted to smash.

Cristiano Ronaldo, reply to my message, or En break off.

After posting this sentence, Juan already felt that he was already a little stubborn at this time, what is the competition with the mobile phone at this time of the night?

Especially Cristiano on the other side doesn't know what he's doing at this time, he has to ask someone to give him a message back at this time, isn't it difficult for a strong man?

So Juan finally gave up directly after struggling with himself for a while, after all, it was useless for him to be entangled at this time, and if Cristiano didn't send him a message no matter what, he couldn't do anything.

You can't just rush over and grab that awkward kid right now, right?

Alas......

Juan put down his phone and was just about to go to bed, but his screen was already lit up, he subconsciously looked down and was stunned for a moment.

A message from Cristiano.

"If I get kicked out, will you take me in?"

When he saw this, Juan was subconsciously stunned for a moment, and then frowned.

What's the situation?

He rubbed his phone and was just about to send a text message, but a call had already arrived—it was Cristiano's.

Juan was silent for a moment before picking up the phone.

"Cristiano?"

The person on the other side was silent for a while, and then laughed: "Juan, we still have one more round of leagues here, and this season is over." ”

Juan was stunned for a moment, and then heard the person on the other end of the phone cough lightly and say, "After the end of this season, I haven't thought about where to go on vacation." ”

Although ...... didn't know what the children wanted to do when they said this, Juan still chimed in: "I know a few good vacation spots, introduce them to you?" ”

Juan did know a few good places, and besides, even if Cristiano wanted to go somewhere else, he still had a Raul to ask, so he didn't hesitate at all when he said this.

Cristiano on the other end of the ".................." phone was silent, and Juan felt as if he had heard grinding his teeth?

"What's wrong?" Juan always felt that something was wrong.

“…… I mean," the Portuguese youngster finally lost in front of his own nervous seniors, gritting his teeth and saying, "Do you have any fun in Deportivo LaCoruna?" ”

"Huh?" Juan was stunned for a moment, and then immediately reacted - their children were awkward and wanted to come to him, but they really couldn't say it.

After realizing this, Juan couldn't laugh or cry, but still coughed lightly and laughed: "Of course there is, there is a lot of fun here in A Coruña, if you want to play, we can also play together." ”

Of course, his words are purely to coax children, how can they have time to play together? Deportivo La Coruna's season is not over yet, and now they are preparing for the Champions League final, and even if he comes, there will be no one to accompany him......

As a result, Cristiano seemed to have taken advantage of something on the phone, and happily replied yes, the two of them chatted as if they had forgotten the inexplicable one-sided cold war for a period of time before, and when he hung up the phone, Juan sighed lightly and glanced at his mobile phone.

In fact, he had already read the message Tom had given him after he returned.

In that message, Cristiano's recent news was said, and it was very comprehensive, a news reporter of the king of thieves, he still has a lot of basic skills that belong to reporters, so at this time, he only described the process and results of these things, and did not add any personal feelings.

He also knew that his personal feelings were not very important at this time, but the impartiality of the news was more useful to Juan, so he summarized what happened recently to Cristiano without saying a word.

Actually, this kid hasn't had much to do lately.

- The conflict with Vanney on the training ground was the biggest thing, and Tom also started with this incident and told Juan some of the next things one after another.

For example, Cristiano and Ruud van Nistoy were completely incompatible in the following period, and the two of them were almost unable to play in a game, but even if they played in a game, they still had the self-integrity of being a professional player, and there was a little cooperation.

But Juan also knows that this is only on the surface, and that this is only on the pitch.

What's more, even on the court, even if the lord is shocked, they still have a little friction when playing, especially in terms of holding the ball.

After all, Vanney has been staying a little longer here, so when two people ask for the ball at the same time, most people will choose to pass the ball to Vanney after hesitating for a moment, but Cristiano is not discouraged, after all, he has only been in his first season, and he has been actively running most of the time.

However, this does not mean that these two people are already calm when they are on the court, if it weren't for Lord Fu on the sidelines, maybe these two people would have already started fighting, and the team's red is a very unsightly situation after all.

Juan also knew that at this time, Fanny and Cristiano were basically at the point of meeting as air, and Fanny was too much after all, how could he talk about his father who had just died?

With this matter as the core, there are a lot of things going on at Manchester United, such as the fans have begun to react differently, the unconditional support for Ruud van Nistelrooy has weakened at the beginning, and the top management of Manchester United seems to have made a little move, all in all, as far as Juan's own observations are concerned, there is definitely no way that Cristiano himself will be "kicked out" as he said.

What's more, the lord is such a precious kid, how could he let him leave like this?

So Juan was still very calm, and sat in A Coruña waiting for the children to arrive.

And the kids came a little quicker than he thought – the next night, in United's final game of the season, Cristiano Ronald knocked on Juan's door with a goal he scored, smiling widely.

"Hey, I'm here to play!"

…… To be honest, Juan was a little confused.

He really couldn't think of why this person would appear at this time, after all, normally, if they had a game tonight, Manchester United would be disbanded on the spot, and this kid should also rest for a night and come the next day, so that Juan could still entrust him to his friends......

But when you come at night, you really can't help it.

Juan could only let people into the house, and the child rubbed his head, and looked at his home with a smile: "Wow, it's so big! ”

"Isn't the house you rented in Manchester smaller than here?" Juan was a little helpless, but most of his emotions were still happy, after all, he hadn't seen this child for a long time, "The guest room has been packed for you, put things down." ”

Fortunately, he had already anticipated the children's resoluteness tonight, and asked the nanny to clean up the room early, otherwise Cristiano would have slept on the sofa today.

"Won't you let me get my pajama cloakroom?" Cristiano smiled, he was very worried about the first time he stayed at Juan's house, although it was because Casillas was there at that time, and Juan lived in a small rented apartment, but he also remembered it for a long time!

Juan coughed lightly, a little embarrassed, after all, he hadn't been with his sweetheart at that time, and he originally thought that he could take advantage of it one more time, but he wronged his little junior......

Fortunately, Cristiano just complained casually, he flew over on the plane just after the game on the big night, and the whole person still had the fragrance of just taking a shower, Juan took him to put things down, and then frowned: "Were you noticed by the media when you came?" ”

"The media? I didn't care, they were following me all day anyway. "Cristiano doesn't care, in fact, he was also very well protected by the lord when he first came to this season, and basically didn't say anything in front of the media, but there are still more advertisements or something, so there is a lot of exposure, and the paparazzi follow him a lot.

"You've only been used to it for a season?" Juan thought it was funny, after all, he remembered the first time Cristiano faced the media, the whole person was red, although a little helpless, but still stubbornly stood in front of the camera to express himself - some people are naturally attracted to the camera, such as Cristiano.

"There's no way around it...... Cristiano was a little depressed, "Jorge got me some ads...... Ah, I didn't pick you up as much, it's tiring, but I still like these activities, but there are more paparazzi. ”

Juan chuckled and rubbed his head.

Because he had just taken a bath, the child's curly hair was soft on his head, and it felt very comfortable to the touch - I have to say that Juan still likes his little curly hair, which has been like this since before, and Cristiano's little curly hair can be said to be Juan's first impression of him.

Cristiano subconsciously dodged Juan's hand, after all, he hadn't been rubbed like this for a long time, and he usually used hairspray to deal with his hair, several layers of hairspray went down, and anyone who touched it was a hand of oil.

When he was at Manchester United, Juan did subconsciously touch his head, but he was soon forced by his oil to break his habit.

But now, Cristiano doesn't know if he forgot it, he didn't get a little hairspray when he came, and suddenly this is Juan's chance!

He was satisfied with stroking several more handfuls of the little curly hair, but Cristiano could only resist but resist, and the two of them giggled and made a mess on the bed.

If there was anyone in A Coruñari here, I don't know how many times I would have been stunned by this sight.

That's Juan Díaz! How could he be so reckless in bed with someone!? 166 Reading Network
