Chapter 138

Casillas was a little sad.

He's now going to take his sweetheart to the airport and then hop on a flight to Manchester.

When Juan was about to turn around, his heart tightened.

Probably, this is the most euphemistic way to say goodbye.

Juan looked at him with a smile: "I'm just going to see the lord, don't look at me with the eyes that I'm already dead, okay?" ”

"I think you're going to die this time." Casillas looked at him very seriously, "So you want to give me a farewell kiss before you die?" ”

Juan smiled helplessly, took two steps forward and directly held the young general's face, kissed the left and right sides, and then pecked heavily in the middle: "Don't worry, I'm just going to eat eel jelly, we'll see you next time." ”

Casillas was directly stunned, and it wasn't until Juan disappeared at the security checkpoint that he subconsciously touched his face, licked his lips, and felt his cheeks burn.

“…… Wait, what is eel jelly ......? ”

Casillas somehow subconsciously thought that maybe this thing was the thing that made them know something else??

When Juan got off the plane, he was picked up by Darren, Ferguson's second son.

Although Darren is ten years older than Juan, there are still a lot of common topics between the two of them, after all, both of them are coaches now, although they coach in different leagues, but after all, they are peers, and they can complain about all kinds of things in the team along the way.

Of course, when it comes to coaching, Darren also admires it in various ways, after all, Juan really got his coaching certificate in one year...... And people are called a good man in the top league, if he keeps doing this, his own Lao Tzu may die of happiness.

"Speaking of which, I really didn't expect you to send my dad a jersey, and it's his ......," Darren complained, "You don't know how ugly my father's face was in those days when he first received it." ”

"Is it a physical obstacle?" Juan is more concerned about this issue.

"That's nothing, he's in good health." Darren also knew what Juan was worried about, and comforted him with a smile, "Actually, the old man is not as angry as he seems, don't worry." ”

Juan breathed a sigh of relief, and the two returned to Ferguson's house with a smile, and Juan also brought a bottle of Ferguson's favorite red wine along the way.

When he arrived at Ferguson's house, Juan immediately felt a chill behind him - why do you say that?

Aunt Casey welcomed him in with a smile, while Ferguson sat on the couch with a frosty face and squinted at him, making him feel a little hairy in his heart.

"Uh, sir......" Juan smiled and stood still without daring to move, Casey looked at her husband's face, couldn't help but purse her lips and smile, then turned around and called her son into the kitchen to help.

"But Mom, is it really okay?" Darren was still very worried when he entered the kitchen, after all, he still knew the power of his father, but the "hair dryer" didn't react at all today, and it was terrifying.

"What can happen?" Casey smiled and opened the refrigerator and brought out the eel jelly from it, "Come and help me with the handle, it's a little heavy." ”

"Just, father......" Darren was very worried.

"It's fine." Casey was calm, "Your father isn't as angry as he seems. ”

"Really?" Darren was still a little skeptical, and then he heard a hearty laugh from the living room—he knew it was indeed his father.

“……？？？” Darren wondered if the world was no longer above a horizontal line, and why was his father so happy all of a sudden?

"I'll just say it." Casey picked up the tray very understandingly, "Help me bring the saucer." ”

"Oh, okay." Darren calmed down for a while, did a good job of psychological construction before going out, only to find that it was a happy place outside.

…… What is the situation?

Juandíaz and his father are like best friends they haven't seen in a hundred years - well, these two people are also teachers and friends, which is normal - but what about the death of Juan Díaz tomorrow?!

Compared to Darren's stunned, Casey was much calmer, she put down the eel jelly she had carefully made for a long time, and wiped her hands: "What are you talking about?" ”

"Let's talk about the last round of the Champions League." Juan felt bad when he said it, and subconsciously blinked his eyes and then looked at the lord pitifully, the lord didn't say anything at all, just spread his hands: "I didn't say anything, it was all said by this kid." ”

Casey has a rule at home, which is to try not to bring official business into the house, and although Ferguson is a workaholic, he still loves his wife very much, so he basically does not talk about these things at home.

But is this a manageable situation?

Juan will only have time to look at them on a rest day, which is something they all know, and it was a good time to play yesterday.

– And, of course, the main time for the two coaches to talk about last night's results.

"Well, at least don't talk about these things while you're eating eel jelly, I'm going to go to the supermarket with Selena next door in the afternoon, and the place is left for you to talk slowly."

Juan and the lord glanced at each other and said in unison: "Do you want to accompany you?" ”

"No, no, I guess I'm accompanied, and you're also paralyzed over there." Casey waved her hand, she had already figured out the routine!

All three men laughed.

But seriously, eel jelly is simply an anti-human invention, and their Aunt Casey is particularly authentic, even Darren, who grew up with this craft, can't help frowning when he eats it, but Juan can still maintain a very calm expression, spoonful by spoonful of the eel jelly in front of him, which makes Casey's expression can't help but soften a lot.

They spent the whole afternoon chatting, and when it was almost evening, Casey looked at the time and got up: "Okay, I'm going to the supermarket, wait for me to come back and make dinner." ”

"Okay."

After seeing the only female boss leave, the three of them looked at each other, got up and went straight to the study - the only place in Ferguson's house where he was allowed to talk about football.

Sitting in his chair, Ferguson took the lead in stretching: "Okay, it's finally time for our conversation!" ”

When he says "we", he is referring to the conversation between the three of them, Darren is still studying as a coach, Juan has only been in charge of Deportivo for less than a season, and in front of them is a veteran driver with many years of coaching experience...... Ahem, veteran coach.

It can be said that no matter what, it is the time for them to study well.

"Speaking of which, you're killing Arsenal twice." When Ferguson said this, he also had an inexplicable pride - not only can he kill Wenger twice, but his disciples can also kill Wenger twice!

"yes, but honestly, it was inspired by the game you played against Arsenal, otherwise I would have had to think a lot of money." Juan said with a smile, and the lord waved his hand: "Come on, don't slap my ass, I won't eat you." ”

Of course, saying that, judging from his expression, the lord is still very useful, and Darren looked at it with some amazement.

- So what exactly did Juan Díaz do to keep his father from being angry??

He's really curious......

"Speaking of which, I don't know if it's a coincidence." Juan smiled and said: "Is Manchester United against Chelsea in the next game? ”

"yes, what's wrong?" As soon as Chelsea was mentioned, the lord was also in good spirits, and the eyebrows fluttered at that moment, and it was obvious that the lord was very happy about the appearance of opponents.

Football is fun only when you have evenly matched opponents!

Juan also knew what the lord thought, so he couldn't help but purse his lips and smile: "No, it's just that their head coach and I are an agent, so I'm just a little concerned." ”

"What's there to care about?" The lord waved his hand casually, "As far as the starting point is concerned, you are much taller than him." ”

Juan couldn't cry or laugh: "But in terms of grades, I am the same as others." ”

"What's this?" The lord smiled, "The La Liga treble sounds a little better than the Portuguese Super League treble, right?" La Liga is also one of the five major leagues. ”

"What is La Liga...... Alas, I may not be able to win the treble, after all, the back of the Champions League is not easy to deal with, and the defense on the Serie A side is too difficult to play, don't you also suffer? ”

Darren was dumbfounded.

Wait a minute, what are these two talking about??

Triple Crown??

Who's the Triple Crown? Juan's?

"AC Milan are tough to deal with." When he said this, the lord was also a little stunned, "But that doesn't mean they can't deal with it...... If Cristiano grows for another year or two, it won't matter which team he encounters. ”

"Yes." Juan nodded, he still knows his little teammates very well, Cristiano's talent can be said to be one in a million, coupled with the discipline of the lord, if he works harder, the future of football will definitely be his world. "Speaking of which, that Kaka at AC Milan is really good, and Cristiano even mentioned him to me."

"Oh, that Kaka." Ferguson waved his hand lazily, "Give up, Berlusconi won't sell Kaka, he's got his eye on that kid." ”

Berlusconi is the president of AC Milan, similarly, this person is also a tycoon in the Italian media industry, the current Italian prime minister, he is indeed not short of money, and now AC Milan itself is older, and finally has a little fresh meat, how can the whole team not hold love?

And the twenty or thirty million bids of other teams are really nothing to the Italian prime minister who is now deep-pocketed.

"I know," Juan smiled and nodded, "I didn't say I was going to buy him...... But listening to your tone, it seems that you have made a quotation for Kaka? ”

"Yes." When he said it, the lord seemed to begin to exude a murderous aura from his body. "Damn the labor certificates, the damn FA...... Otherwise, Kaka would have been at Manchester United a long time ago. ”

Juan couldn't help but smile, of course he knew what was going on, at that time he had just come to Manchester United to relax, and the lord was thinking about that Brazilian, but unfortunately the FA stipulated that foreign players must have a labor certificate-

There is also a certain process for applying for a labor certification, as well as certain requirements.

Unfortunately, Kaka did not meet the target, and the lord could only watch this good seedling switch to Serie A, and then quickly take root there and thrive.

"Speaking of which, you Leonel Messi......" The lord turned his head and squinted at him, Juan was stunned and couldn't laugh or cry.

"Sir, if you count it up, you are the third person to ask me about Messi."

"The third?" The lord was also stunned, "So little?" ”

"No, all three of them asked in front of me......" Juan waved his hand, "one for you, one for Benitez, one for Wenger......"

"Wenger wants it too?" The lord narrowed his eyes and began to think that things were getting interesting, "And how do you answer?" ”

"I said, Leonel Messi is worth 40 million."

"Forty million?" The lord was stunned for a moment, and then fell silent, Darren looked at his father, and then at Juan, who was smiling and silent, and didn't know why he felt that the atmosphere on the scene was a little stagnant.

Soon his father spoke again, with some caution in his voice: "Not a single point? ”

"Yes." Juan smiled and nodded, "This is the contract between Deportivo and Messi at the beginning, and the transfer fee is increasing year by year, according to the increase, Leonel Messi's transfer fee will reach 100 million a year before his free transfer." ”

One hundred million?!

Darren's breathing became rapid: "You...... When is his time due? ”

Juan replied with a calm smile: "The summer transfer period of 2014. ”

"......" Lord and Darren glanced at each other, both having some sense of absurdity.

Is he crazy?

How can anyone sign a ten-year contract?!

And no matter what, Messi is still just a young player, he hasn't proven his stage, and he hasn't proven his ability, is it really good to gamble 20 million on this little guy?!

Juan also knew the concerns of these two people, he smiled, and then said softly: "Let's see, just give him a chance......"

"But you can only let him play in the reserve team now." Ferguson couldn't help but say.

"It's okay sir, don't worry." Juan smiled, "We must have had a lot of injuries at the end of the day, and then it's time for them to play." ”

"......" Ferguson was speechless.

"I know I'm not quite right." Juan remembered his previous time at Manchester United, when the whole team was covering him and Cristiano.

I have to say that Manchester United is really an interesting team.

In the first 70 minutes of the game, everyone at United will play hard, try to score goals and try to settle the game for 70 minutes, but what about the next 20 minutes?

Leave it to Juan and Cristiano to play to their heart's content!

At this point, Cristiano was throwing himself on the pitch as if he had taken off the reins, and Juan didn't know what to say.

To be honest, this is also the best way for a team to bring children, but there are too many young people on Juan's side, and there are many old ones, so it is destined that Deportivo La Coruna cannot be compared to Manchester United in the middle of the age, they can only fight while leading.

However, there is a slight benefit to this, at least Deportivo boys are all in the reserves, and after a few games in the first team, they are much stronger than most of the reserves.

So Juan also knows that the next schedule is more critical, and the more he has to lead his children to move forward.

Because he had to go to work the next day, Juan had to leave overnight, and the lord and Darren specially drove him to the airport, and when he was at the airport, Darren also deliberately handed him a box: "Take it, this is a piece of my mother's heart." ”

“？” Juan looked at the package, "What is it?" ”

"A whole box of eel jelly: D"

"......," Juan was silent for a moment, nodding with difficulty, "Thank you very much, Aunt Casey." ”

"Speaking of which, there used to be a person who liked to eat her eel jelly." The lord suddenly spoke, startling the two of them. "She can't help but make a lot, so you can take it back and eat it."

"Okay." Juan nodded, took his things and turned around to exchange for a ticket to Madrid.

- Beckham was stunned when he saw Casillas standing in the doorway.

Thanks to Spain's weird routine, it's not time for them to go to training yet: "What's wrong Igor? ”

You know, if Casillas really has something, he will definitely call him early, and then make an appointment, he won't run over so suddenly, stand in front of his house and almost slam the door......

Casillas's face was a little ugly, but he still stretched out his hand directly: "Take it, it's from Manchester." ”

"Huh?" Beckham was dumbfounded, "Then what are you ...... Uh, how did that come about? ”

"Juan went to Manchester yesterday and brought you a shirt as a thank you gift." Casillas's expression was not good-looking when he said this, of course, not because he went to the airport early in the morning to pick up someone, but because the man asked him to hand over something and then turned around and left, but because he ......

He also tasted this thing, which Juan deliberately left for him, originally holding "How can it be so delicious, and you have to go to the lord's house to eat?" But the fishy, sticky, and greasy feeling that hit his soul at that moment made him in a trance, and he couldn't come back to his senses for a long time, and served it directly to an Englishman without any burden.

"Uh, what is it?" The Englishman took the package in his hand blankly, sniffed it, and his eyes lit up: "Eel jelly!" ”

"......" Casillas looked at Beckham with a very frightened look as he noticed that England's number one handsome man seemed to ...... Do you really like eel jelly?

"Hehe, this thing is delicious, Juan brought it back from Manchester?"

"Yes, Aunt Casey made it herself." Casillas nodded and repeated, looking at the overjoyed appearance of the handsome man in England, he suddenly began to wonder if he had the wrong way to eat, so he didn't think it was delicious?

Beckham saw that Casillas was a little eager to try, and directly invited: "Do you want to come and try it?" Aunt Kathy's craftsmanship is amazing! ”

Casillas nodded directly, but after five minutes, his tears were about to flow.

Or is it the "deliciousness" that hits the heart!!

"Oh, I know you Spaniards aren't used to eating this kind of taste, and you don't know British food."

Casillas looked at the man in front of him who was talking and munching on eel jelly, and was a little speechless. “…… What kind of strong taste buds are you......"

"It's not a strong taste bud, it's ......" Beckham smiled and bowed his head, "the most familiar taste." ”

He paused, sighed and smiled: "Victoria doesn't like me to eat eel jelly very much, because the heat is too high, and I can't find authentic eel jelly in the whole of Spain, I didn't expect to eat it today...... How did Juan get on the plane? ”

"I don't know about him." Casillas shook his head, "But speaking of which, your food in the UK is a bit ...... That's amazing. ”

"It's okay." Beckham thought for a moment, then stuffed a large mouthful of the eel into his mouth, and Casillas watched as the corners of his mouth twitched.

…… What's so good about this thing......

To be honest, it wasn't just Casillas who couldn't understand it, but neither did Juan, but he ate up Aunt Cayce's eel jelly and went back to A Coruña to start his day, and was interviewed by the TV station.

'As the youngest manager in the history of the Champions League and the youngest manager in La Liga, what do you think of the current form of the Champions League?

"I don't think so." Juan smiled calmly, "We are not proud when we win, we are not discouraged when we lose, that's it." ”

"So what do you have to say about the next league game against Barcelona?"

"Nope." The smile on Juan's face had a very calm arc.

What is there to say? Just roll up your sleeves and get started! The Riazor Stadium has been waiting for this moment for a long time.

"Welcome to the Riazor Stadium! Tonight, our big Laco is going to face Barcelona at home, so far we have beaten Real Madrid twice, and now whether we can beat Barcelona twice, it all depends on today! ”

"Barcelona's coach Rijkaard came up with his strongest lineup, which seems to be considering that without the pressure of the Champions League, he is much easier to transfer personnel, and he directly plays the main force, it seems that he wants to have a fight to the death with Deportivo La Coruna!"

"Barcelona's starting line-up, goalkeeper Valdés; defenders Puyol, Van Bronckhorst, Hilvinho, Edmilson; Midfielders, Xavi, Ronaldinho, Deco, Iniesta; Forwards Henrik Larsson, Samuel Eto'o...... Barcelona are going to play 4-4-2! ”

"Barcelona's squad is indeed strong in attack, they have a strong midfield, the front can support the forward, the back can dispatch the defense, especially the midfield has both an organizational midfielder like Deco, and a dispatching midfielder like Xavi, and there is also an attacking midfielder Ronaldinho, and a projectile midfielder Iniesta, it can be said that Barcelona's configuration is perfect enough."

"Of course, that's not to say that Deportivo isn't in a bad configuration, this game is ...... Belch. Dean was stunned and looked down carefully for a while: "Am I right?" ”

"What's wrong?"

"Ahem, just listen to it...... Deportivo La Coruna's starting line-up, goalkeeper Diego López; defenders Andrade, Capdevilla, Juan Sorrin; midfielders Juan Vellerón, Pablo Aimar, Juan Riquelme, Fernando Gago, Fernando Redondo; Riscardo Quaresma ...... Lionel Messi. ”

“……？？？” Frank snatched the list from Dean's hand, "It's really Messi!" ”

"Ahem, it's worth mentioning that in this game, Deportivo La Coruna sent three Barcelona veterans, namely Juan Riquelme, Lionel Messi and Ricardo Quaresma...... It seems that no matter what, Juan is still a person who will repay him. ”

"Will you get revenge?"

"Yes, you see, if you win this game, isn't it a naked slap in the face?"

"What's so bad about that?" Frank glanced at him and waved his hand: "Let me tell you like this, I love to watch the excitement the most, and I love to see the slap in the face!" ”

"Me too!" Dean nodded in agreement. "But I'm wondering what kind of game Deportivo is going to come up with."

“…… Isn't it a 3-5-2 formation? Frank was a little confused.

Dean held back a smile in his heart, "Are you sure? ”

Juan Díaz is just too bad!

First of all, in the lineup, he put on a look of contempt for his opponents, and he did send a young lineup, which seemed to be a harbinger of arrogance and underestimation of the enemy.

But if you look at his starting line-up and take a look at everyone's performance in previous games - Quaresma usually plays the role of central movement and attack, Fernando Gago can go anywhere and try to defend it, so if you look closely, it's 4-5-1! Defend and counterattack!!

And several of Deportivo La Coruna's midfielders and midfielders are excellent players who can fight and grab, have skills, skills and abilities, and at the same time have a midfielder like Aimar who is very easy to break through at a glance, which is completely straightforward to Barcelona: My pants have been taken off, you come up!

"The most surprising thing is that Lionel Messi finally ushered in the starting line-up again, he had a short time as a substitute in the previous game, and his performance was not flat, I wonder if the striker will surprise people."

At the beginning of the game, the two teams rolled up their sleeves without saying a word!

It was Barcelona's players who had the first chance to shoot, as midfielder Ronaldinho forced his way through and fired wide of the far post, while Deportivo La Coruna took advantage of the goal kick to regain the initiative on the pitch.

In the sixth minute, Belleron and Aimar made a one-two combination and then burst into the penalty area and crossed, and the receiving Quaresma met the ball and shot directly at the goal, the ball hit the outside of the post and flew out of the bottom line, shocking Valdés in a cold sweat.

"Oooh! Quaresma is especially interested in this race! He exploded with an amazing fighting spirit on the court! ”

In the seventh minute, Riquelme created a free-kick, Belleron passed the ball into the box, and the soaring Gago grabbed the first goal in the box, but his header hit the crossbar and bounced off the bottom line, and Valdés escaped again.

In the opening ten minutes, Deportivo hit the crossbar and the post in a row, and it is clear that although the formation was changed, it still did not affect the good form of the Deportivo players.

Juan knows in his heart that Fernando Gago will have no problem playing in the middle, and that he can still help the attack on this side, and Juan Riquelme's return to the right will be more lethal than the playmaking on the left.

In addition, Riquelme himself is a midfielder who can attack and defend well, his running and sprinting ability on the right side will not decline, with Redondo in the back to fill in for him, and his forward insertion is more unscrupulous, such a formation may not be as balanced as the 4-4-2 attack and defense on the opposite side, but in attack, it is more aggressive, more layered, and sharper!

At this point, Aimar and Riquelme worked together to entangle the two opposing midfielders, with Belleron behind him cutting the link between the opposing striker and midfield, and Quaresma and Rionel Messi on the flanks and their full-backs in the wings.

This kind of high-pressure pressing is very risky, because once the opponent passes the ball to the striker, it is a forward-to-back situation, and teammates may not even have time to fill the position.

Barcelona obviously didn't expect Deportivo La Coruna to grab so fiercely, and even had some of the gangster atmosphere of the Premier League team, and was a little caught off guard for a while, and the midfielder almost couldn't control the ball and could only pass back.

Lionel Messi used his flexibility to harass the opposition defence and force them to play the ball, and in a hurry Redondo cleared the ball, and in central midfield, Juan Sorin stopped the ball before Xavi and then played a straight ball to Quaresma in front.

Quaresma went straight inside with the ball, and then made a one-two cooperation with Belleron, he broke through the opponent's back line, facing the opposite back line, Messi looked at the position and prepared to be offside, Van Bronckhorst went to mark, Quaresma crossed to the right, Belleron also pressed to the middle, after Larsson went to mark Messi, Belleron took the ball and □□ into the penalty area.

Dribbling the ball to the top corner of the small penalty area, he already had a chance to shoot with his feet, Puyol moved over to press closely, Henry knocked back to the middle, and Quares, who met the ball, hit the goal with a heavy shot!

Barcelona, who were completely defensive in the middle, were helpless in the face of this shot.

Valdés fell to the ground and pounced on the ball, but the force was too great, and the ball refracted and flew into the goal.

“al！！！ Ricardo Quaresma!! Surprising, so unexpected!! Deportivo La Coruna has been directly pressing high since the opening, once the opponent tears up the defense line locally, the back line may face the danger of playing more with less, but Deportivo La Coruna's adventurous spirit has been rewarded, Barcelona is very unsuitable for the opponent's crazy pressing, after clearing the ball to the opponent, it was immediately penetrated by Deportivo through the team cooperation, 1:0! ”

However, Barcelona are not vegetarians, they deliberately put all the main lineup on purpose today, of course, it is not just for fun, in the twentieth minute of the game, Xavi received a pass from Puyol behind him, and then knocked it to Deco in front.

Deco took the ball with his back and when Capdevilla kept interfering with him, he cleverly distributed the ball to Andres Iniesta on the left!

Andres Iniesta cut diagonally into the box, slotted Deco's pass forward, and then raised his foot to cross the ball directly into the box as Andrade moved to block the front point -

Ronaldinho, who arrived in an instant, raised his foot and shot the ball out when Juan Sorin was almost hanging on him, and the football quickly flew into most of the empty goal, and Barcelona quickly equalized!

"Beautiful goal! Ronaldinho's twenty-fifth goal in the league this season! His role on the pitch is not just about scoring goals, he acts as a fulcrum up front, sharing a lot of defensive attention with the players for most of the half, and can also become the most powerful firepower attack point at any time. ”

Is this the end of it?

Of course not, Deportivo still has a lot of ability, especially against opponents like Barcelona, they have a lot of room to play, especially when they often played a purely technical team like Arsenal before, and they have more experience.

The fighting spirit was very high throughout Deportivo today, especially the attacking combination.

Ricardo Quaresma, who wants to prove himself, Juan Riquelme, who is gearing up to do a big job, and Rionel Messi, who is silent but already burning with fire.

After Barcelona restarted, Deportivo all pounced and pressed wildly.

A Coruña has changed its crazy approach again??

In this high-pressure situation, Barcelona's attacking progress became very difficult, and the time for the ball to be handled by the ball player was very short, and they would be in a mess if they could not find a space to serve.

Gago steals Iniesta and immediately hands the ball to Belleron, Captain Laco kicks the ball, a through plug sends the ball into the box, Messi fights to beat Silvinho, receives the ball near the bottom line and crosses the goal, Quaresma is ready to shoot, but Valdés clears first! 166 Reading Network
