"Thank you for sending me here...... Next time I have any news to inquire about, as long as I can give it to you, I won't be stingy. ”

Before getting out of the car, Dick patted Musampa on the shoulder, needless to say, it was almost enough, Musampa did him a small favor, and he naturally had to reciprocate.

Musampa smiled and nodded, then drove away, Dick tidied up his clothes and walked into Atletico headquarters.

After pushing open the door of the general manager, Dick walked in directly, and then sat down opposite Little Hill - Little Hill raised his head in some surprise, raised his eyebrows, and a trace of anger appeared on his face, but immediately calmed down.

Putting down the work at hand, Little Ciel folded his hands together, flicked his two index fingers in front of him a few times, and then looked up at Dick.

"Mr. Dick, the newspapers are very busy these days."

Dick shrugged his shoulders, "I don't know why it's so lively...... It's just a small bet. ”

Seeing that Dick didn't seem to feel that he had done anything wrong at all, the anger on Little Hill's face came out again: "Mr. Dick, please pay attention! You are now the manager of Atletico Madrid's second team, everything is about maintaining the image of the club! A bet like this is a very serious damage to the club's image! ”

"That's what it's for......" Dick suddenly realized, and then he shook his head: "Little Mr. Ciel, you are serious...... Such a bet, to put it bluntly, is a private bet between me and the journalist, and will it have anything to do with Atletico Madrid? The bet is also on Barcelona, and has nothing to do with Atletico Madrid. ”

"How it doesn't matter! After the end of the season, people said in the newspapers that 'the manager of Atletico Madrid's second team is running naked in the downtown area', isn't it the image of the club that has been damaged? Little Hill said loudly.

"Are you so unconfident in me?" Dick crooked his mouth: "I must be the one who wins, and then the newspaper will say 'World Sports News reporter eats the microphone', besides, if I lose, do you think I will still work in this position?" At that time, I must have just gotten out, and at most people would say 'the former manager of Atletico Madrid', which would not damage the image of Atletico Madrid. ”

Looking at Dick who looked like a scoundrel, little Hill really couldn't take this guy - maybe his dad didn't care about this, after all, old Hill was also a ruffian, but little Hill thought he was still a highly educated and successful person in high society, how could he pull down his face and fight a lawsuit with Dick?

"Alright, you can go out first...... By the way, Mr. President, I want to see you. Little Hill said with a wave of his hand.

"Yes—" Dikla stood up in a long voice, then turned to walk out of the office.

"The next time you see me, remember to knock on the door first."

There was an angry voice from behind him, Dick shrugged his shoulders, and closed the door with his backhand as he walked out of the office, and Little Hill slapped the table hard, if it weren't for the fact that this guy was someone Daddy liked, he would have opened this guy immediately!

Dick made his way to Old Hill's chairman's office, and this time he knocked on the door in a proper manner, until he heard a shout from inside: "Come in!" Then he pushed open the door and walked in.

As soon as he walked into the office, he saw Old Hill holding a newspaper and laughed, Dick smiled, and sat down in front of Old Hill.

"Di, I heard that you led the team to play well in the last game, Torres completed a hat-trick, and it was very beautiful to win!" Old Hill put down the newspaper and said with a laugh.

'I said you wouldn't make me the wrong choice to be the manager. Dick replied.

Such an answer was clearly in line with the appetite of old Ciel, who was an adventurer-like figure, who walked between black and white, so that he could rise to the upper class as a country ruffian, and Dick displayed all the qualities he had before—young, ambitious, and unscrupulous...... And Dick, as a head coach, is unlikely to threaten his position, which makes the old Hill quite appreciative of this young man.

And the game he won before also made Old Hill feel that this young man does have some ability, and the salary is not high anyway, so he is still very wise to use.

"Also, you made a bet with a reporter from World Sport? Aren't you afraid of losing? Old Hill asked with the same curiosity.

"Without confidence, how could I make such a bet." Dick replied: "Barcelona are really strong, but they also have a lot of problems, this season in Spain will be more competitive than in the previous two seasons, they don't have any outstanding quality in the Champions Cup, it's normal that they don't win anything...... If I lose, I won't bother Atletico and I'll resign until then. ”

"Needless to say, even if you lose the bet, it's your personal business, and it has nothing to do with the club, and I want to fire you for only one reason, and that is that you don't have good results with the team."

Old Hill said lightly, this attitude made Dick admire in his heart - being able to work almost from scratch to his current position, Old Hill does have something different from ordinary people, and in this regard, he is much better than his son.

"Mr. President, I wasn't called here today just to say this, right? It wasn't easy for me to make a trip, I couldn't get a taxi, I didn't have a car, and in the end a reporter sent me ......"

Dick poured bitter water, although he is also a professional head coach now, but he is still living a very hard life, there are still tens of thousands of pesetas left in his pocket, the time for salary has not yet arrived, he can't go out to have fun, he has to eat fast food for dinner, and he doesn't even have a car to go out......

"Well, I was negligent." Old Hill is also a character from the bottom, so he naturally knows that what Dick said is the truth, and after thinking about it, he took out his wallet again, and then counted out a stack of money: "Your current salary is one million pesetas a month, and I will advance your salary for a month...... It's your choice whether you want to stay in an academy apartment or rent a house, and if you do, the club can help you find a suitable one. ”

Dick took the stack of money, and counted it to be nine hundred thousand pesetas—old Hill had given him a hundred thousand before, and the old fellow was really careful with the money.

Dick doesn't care about this, a million pesetas a month, about six or seven thousand dollars, so the salary for a year is less than 100,000 dollars, and the head coach of the second team usually takes this salary.

"As for the car...... The club arranges one for you, do you have a driver's license? If you don't have one, you can find a driver, and the salary club will pay for it. Old Hill continued.

"Then find a driver, I don't know how to drive yet." Dick replied.

"Okay." Old Hill nodded: "What else is the problem?" ”

"Help me find a tutor in Spanish, I'm going to learn Spanish now." Dick finally made a request: "It's better to be a pretty girl......

How do you write those football novels? Beautiful governess, and then something happens, oh yes~

Old Hill laughed: "The tutor is fine...... But pretty girls don't have to be, unless you pay for it yourself...... Okay, I got it, I'll get it done for you right away. ”

When Dick walked out of Old Hill's office, there was already a car waiting for him.

"Mr. Dick? I'm your driver, Valentin Garcia. ”

A middle-aged man with a big beard said to Dick, who nodded, "Mr. Garcia, have you been following me?" ”

"Yes, you can find me in the parking lot during work hours whenever you need a car." Garcia replied.

Dick nodded, it seems that it is a work car, and he wants to use the bus for private use, but he doesn't seem to have this qualification......

"Then let's go, go back to the Academy." Dick got into the old-looking Mercedes and said to Garcia.

After returning to the training ground, Dick nodded as he saw his players practising set-piece tactics under Marriner's direction, and the next league game was in midweek away to Salamanca, with the trip to tomorrow.

From this aspect, you can see how wise Dick is to use the survey card - after all, the game is going to be played on Thursday, if the information is sent on Monday, then there is no time, he used the survey card on Sunday, so that there is an extra day to study the opponent, it is in the study that he found that Salamanca's team has no obvious weaknesses elsewhere, but there are some problems in the defense of set-pieces, which made Marrina focus on training set-piece tactics.

Football game, to put it bluntly, is a game that grasps the opponent's weaknesses and attacks, and then tries to make the opponent unable to grasp their weaknesses, sees the opponent's weaknesses and then makes targeted drills, which is a basic ability.

Dick was a layman, but his confidence in his ability to command the game was not blind.

"In the next game, set-pieces will be a big way to score. Salamanca have been solid and they don't have too many obvious weaknesses, but they don't have a great overall positioning when it comes to defending set-pieces, so there's plenty to play on...... The edge of the penalty area will be a place we can use, when getting a set-piece in front, their defensive attention is actively focused on the penalty area, and the defense of the front of the penalty area is more neglected, this is where we can take advantage of, when getting a set-piece, David, appear in time at the front of the penalty area, with a long shot to kill them! ”

Kubino nodded, his long-range shot was the best in the team, and Dick's arrangement was a good one.

"Dribble a lot when you attack on the two wings, pass the ball to the two strikers when you have the chance, be careful when you defend with their passes, Curro, pay attention to the attacking route that jams them, a midfielder who is interception, you have to keep a clear head, understand?"

Barkas nodded, he thanked Dick, after letting him come off the bench in the last game, Dick seemed to value his appearance very much, this game also let him play the main team, for a semi-substitute, it is a very happy thing to be able to play continuously.

Such an adjustment will naturally make Lima, the only foreign aid in the team, lose the main position, but Dick doesn't care, in his opinion, Lima is a player who can run, and his defensive ability is also good, but his awareness and ability to play a position are too poor, and Atletico Madrid's second team must play offensive tactics around Torres, which is Dick's purpose - to win, play beautifully, and to bring out Torres - in this case, he naturally can't give up defense, An interception-type midfielder who can appear in time for the opponent's attacking line is naturally much more useful than a tackle-making midfielder who can only run blindly.

However, this does not mean that Dick will give up on Lima, at least the Senegalese midfielder is still very good at running and can make a big difference at times.
