'The combination of attacking on the flanks and in the middle is ultimately about attacking around Torres and creating chances for him...... Knock our opponents into the gutter! ”

When Dick explained today's starting lineup and tactics, Marriner watched coldly from the sidelines - he was an assistant coach, and it was certainly not his business to direct the game, but when listening to Dick's starting lineup and explain the tactics surrounding Torres' attack, Marriner still nodded slightly: "I can clearly line up the strongest lineup and know how to play the role of Torres...... This guy isn't as useless as he seems. But that's your tactical set-up? It's too shoddy! ”

Dick's tactics are indeed a bit rough, nothing more than to stabilize the midfield, make a fuss on the side, either pass the ball directly to Torres who receives in the middle and let him shoot, or pass the high ball to the high point Zasinos to let him ferry to create opportunities for Torres, to put it bluntly, everything revolves around Torres to attack, try to let him score as many goals as possible.

If he had done this at the beginning of the season, maybe everyone would not have any objections, but now that the league has played seven rounds, Torres has not scored a single goal, so he is rashly given a heavy responsibility...... Tsk tsk, isn't it too much to take it for granted?

Dick didn't care what Marina had in mind, anyway, in his opinion, using Torres well and adapting him to the atmosphere of La Liga is one of his great credits - the second team exists to provide talent for the first team, and it is a great achievement for Atletico Madrid to win the runner-up in La Liga last year, but it is the greatest credit to play Jose Mari, an excellent striker.

Of course, results are also very important, especially under the leadership of Hill, the chairman who despises youth training and only likes to sell stars for money, without results, no matter how many good players are cultivated, it will be in vain.

Therefore, Dick has to let Torres regain his confidence and adapt to the team's tactics, because the tactics of Atletico Madrid's second team revolve around the main striker, and if Torres's form does not recover, it is useless to want to achieve good results.

After arranging the tactics, Dick waved his hand imposingly: "Let's go!" Guys, in today's game, we must take out the opponent and let them know that even if we are Atletico Madrid, it is not something that a team like them can withstand! ”

After all, Atletico Madrid is the third team in Spain to win the league title, even in the face of Real Madrid and Barcelona dare to confront the existence of a head-on confrontation, facing a team that has been mixed in La B and La C for a long time, even if it is a player from the second team, there is also an advantage psychology.

After the players walked out of the dressing room, Dick stopped Torres.

"Fernando, don't think about anything else in the game...... Just play the way you did in the youth team and you're going to score today, I have that hunch – at least two, and with a bit of luck, maybe you can score a hat-trick! ”

Torres looked up in surprise at the young manager, who was not a few years older than him, and he had never seen a manager who dared to pat his chest and score in a game...... Is it because he is indeed a layman? Or do you have a strong sense of self-confidence?

At this moment, Dick slapped Torres on the shoulder again: "Trust me, that's right! As long as you can keep enough confidence in yourself, then no one can stop you, now go and score the first goal of your career! ”

Staggered by Dick, Torres shook his head and walked out of the locker room.

Regardless of whether it is nonsense or not, at least this coach still trusts himself, even if he started every game in the first seven rounds of the league but did not score a single goal - you must know that there is already a saying within the second team of Atletico Madrid that Torres is a genius, but it is too early to enter the second team at the age of sixteen, and he should continue to accumulate experience in the youth team, and next year is a good time for him to enter the second team......

Torres is very dissatisfied with this statement - although he has a relatively good personality and will not lose his temper easily, but as a talented player, he has always had a very proud mentality, and this kind of doubt is unbearable for him, but he has also begun to understand the cruelty of the football world - in just this month or so, even those who shouted before the start of the season "Let's look forward to how a genius under the age of seventeen can start his great career in La Liga" of the media began to question Torres, which also made Torres breathe.

For Torres, he would never accept going back to the youth team for a while, even if it might be better for his future development – and to do so would mean he was admitting defeat, something a proud genius would never admit!

At this time, hearing that the young head coach who had just taken office trusted him so much, Torres couldn't help but feel a little moved in his heart.

At this time, Dick expressed his confidence in him, and said with great certainty that he would score goals in the game, or at least two - although it would not make Torres die for Dick when he heard this, but at least, he also had a good impression of the new head coach and knew that he was supporting him.

"In this game, you have to perform well." Torres thought to himself as he left the locker room.

Dick walked around the locker room a few times with pride, and the assistant coaches all left, leaving him alone, and he wasn't afraid of being told that he was a dirt bun and had never seen the world - this was his first time in the locker room of a professional team! Although it is the second team, although it is the second team...... But this is also a proper dressing room! Now I am standing in such a dressing room, in the future I will stand in Calderón's home dressing room, and in the future I will stand in the dressing room of more powerful giants, and create my own legendary road!

After a few moments of excitement, Dick let go of his fist and strode out of the locker room.

**********************************

Atletico II is certainly not played at the Calderón Stadium – it is the home of Atletico I and Atletico II is the Metropolitan Stadium just outside Madrid – another stadium owned by Atletico Madrid, which became the home of Atletico II after the construction of the Calderón Stadium in 1966.

This stadium can accommodate nearly 30,000 people, Atletico Madrid is not worried about no fans, the whole Madrid, even if it is as strong as Real Madrid, only has half of Madrid's fans, and the other half is Atletico Madrid's fans, this is the charm of the rivals in the same city, even if it is in a city with a giant like Real Madrid, Atletico Madrid is still not inferior in the number of fans.

Although it was only a second-team match, nearly 20,000 people watched it - which shows Atletico Madrid's appeal in Madrid, which can always be regarded as Real Madrid's biggest opponent, and Atletico Madrid also has something to be proud of.

For these Atletico Madrid fans, they watched the second team's game, in addition to the fact that the second team really played well last year, there is a big reason to come to see Torres - although Torres is not yet seventeen years old, but he has always been a well-known talent in the Madrid area, especially after Raul left the Atletico Madrid youth team, after Real Madrid became Spain's top scorer and the national team's top striker, Atletico Madrid fans were depressed and pinned all their hopes on this unborn talent. They hope that Torres will break into the Atletico first team in the near future and then become the banner of Atletico, leading Atletico to overtake Real Madrid to become the best team in Madrid – just as Kiko did in the 95-96 season.

Despite the disappointing performances of Torres in the previous games, they didn't care, and in their opinion, it would be enough for Torres to be able to train in La Liga, as for scoring goals or something...... It's always coming, knowing that Torres scored more goals in the youth team than Raul at the time! With such a genius, scoring goals is a matter of time...... As long as they see Torres on the field, they are satisfied, they come to see the second team play, just to see Torres!

So when Torres was seen in the last row of the team, the more than 10,000 Atletico fans in the stadium immediately burst into loud cheers, chanting Torres' name and jumbled slogans such as "Golden Boy" and "Genius" to express their support for Torres.

Torres raised his arms and gestured to the stands, which is one of the reasons why he is reluctant to return to the youth team, where there are so many fans who like him in the second team, why is he leaving? Not to mention as a loser......

After the cheers, the whole stadium was quiet, because all the Atletico Madrid fans saw that after the players of the second team of Atletico Madrid came out, a young man wearing an ordinary sportswear walked out of the players' tunnel, raising his right hand and waving his arm to the stands as he walked......

"Huh? Who is this person? ”

"Is it the new second team manager? He looks young. ”

"The newspaper didn't seem to say that the second team had a new head coach, and I thought it was Marriner who was in charge of the game."

"Wow, he's an Oriental! I just don't know which country, the Japanese? Korean? Chinese? Judging by his skin, he is not dark, he should not be from Southeast Asia, right? An Atletico Madrid fan who looked at Dick with a telescope was amazed and said, "It seems that our boss has started to play tricks again, and he actually found an Asian to coach the team......"

"The East is very mysterious, maybe they can do witchcraft." Said an Atletico fan next to him.

"Cut, witchcraft didn't make the Chinese team into the World Cup, nor did Japan and South Korea enter the knockout round of the World Cup, football matches don't rely on any witchcraft, I don't believe there will be any great coaches there." Another fan retorted.

"Oh, whatever, anyway, with the speed at which our boss changes coaches, this guy may be fired soon, what do you care about this." Another fan played the round.

"yes, yes, why don't we bet on how long he'll be fired?" Immediately, someone liked to say it.

Contrary to the statements that Atletico fans like to hear, the media covering the game were in a mess - they had no idea about Dick's appointment, which was a huge shame for those of them who made a living by covering the game!

"Hell, find out where this guy came from! It is unforgivable that we don't even know his information! One journalist snarled to his assistant that a reporter for Marca, one of the biggest sports outlets in Madrid and Spain, should not have made such a mistake......
