After yelling at Marriner, Dick felt that the matter should be revealed, but what he didn't expect was that the next day came the news that Marriner was sick......

"Damn, this kid isn't going to show up with me, is he?"

After coming to the training ground, when he heard the news, Dick immediately arranged for other coaches to top up on the training first, and then immediately rushed to Marriner's house in a car - now he was really a little angry, it didn't matter if Marriner was tangled before, if he was scolded by himself and made such an emotion, then how could he trust him in the future? How to use him?

Dick, who gritted his teeth along the way, was disarmed as soon as he arrived at Marina's house, and he couldn't lose his temper - because it wasn't Marina who threw him in the face, but the leader of the Marina family......

When she opened the door and saw Dick, Marriner's wife didn't show him any good face, and she didn't close the door, but turned around and walked in, saying as she went, "What's the matter?" Do you want people to go out to work when you're sick? You're really ......."

Dick was stunned, but he really couldn't do anything to get angry with the woman, so he had to follow inside, and then said cautiously, "Well, I'm not here to urge him to work...... It's just that he is indispensable for the team's training, and I want to ask him if he has any arrangements......"

"I'm helping you write a training plan! I think he is going to die of illness before he is willing! ”

Marina's wife angrily took Dick to the study, then turned and walked away, without even bringing him a cup of coffee, it seemed that she really hated this man who used her husband to death......

Dick smiled bitterly and pushed open the door of the study and walked in, and then saw Marriner, who was already coughing and covered in blood, tremblingly took out a stack of papers and handed it to him: "This is what I have learned in my life, and I have written twenty-four thousand one hundred and twelve words, which contain eight affairs, seven precepts, six fears, and five fears. Dick cried and prayed, and then Marina took out a few steel hammers from his bosom and said intermittently, "This is my last party due......

Shaking his head and pushing all sorts of nonsense out of his mind, Dick looked at Marina, who was wearing a dress and writing something on his desk, and asked, "Are you okay?" ”

Marrina coughed twice, and said a little tiredly: "It's no problem, it should be a cold, and you have to stay in bed......"

"How can you catch a cold...... Dick saw Marina's helpless eyes looking at him, and then remembered that he seemed to have sprayed Marina's spit on his face yesterday, intentionally or unintentionally......

"No wonder I've recovered from a cold today...... Dick looked up to the sky and snorted: "It seems that the statement that you can get better by infecting others with a cold makes sense...... Just kidding, it's a joke! ”

Marriner, who was about to pounce on Dick, sat back, and then shook his head: "It's nothing, you can't die...... But I have to write out the training plan and let a few of them help arrange the training...... You wait a minute. [Full text reading. 】”

Dick sighed, and then obediently found a place to sit down - it was the first time he had come to Marriner's house, and looked at the facilities in the study, which matched the characteristics of a football coach in his mind - it was quite messy everywhere, there were scattered notes and some materials everywhere, and he picked up a piece of paper and saw that there were several articles written on it about training.

Dick felt ashamed of the cleanliness of his own home—no wonder people were a little unhappy in their hearts, so hard, and after so long, they didn't know how to direct the game, I'm afraid that everyone would be unhappy.

But he was so careful waiting for him to write a training plan, Marriner should be a little cooler, how to say that he is also a good posture, of course, if Marriner swells up, he can't do it, and the assistant coach who can train is not particularly difficult to find, it just needs to be run-in, but looking at Marriner's character, he is not the kind of person who has the ambition to be the head coach, otherwise he would not honestly help himself train players in the second team at that time.

I have to say that Dick's posture of Corporal Politeness really made Marriner feel very comfortable, as if the cold had improved a little, he quickly finished writing the training plan, and then handed it to Dick: "Just give it to someone else...... They know what I usually do, and they can understand it at a glance. ”

"Understood." Dick nodded, and then put away the stack of training plans, it seemed that Marriner had been writing long before he came: "Rest well...... Don't come to the team until you have a cold. ”

"Of course I know that, and that's why you're going to have a bad cold and still run around the team...... Marriner said dissatisfied.

"I didn't know it before. When I was in China, a cold was nothing, and it wasn't so easy to spread to each other...... Who knows that you Europeans have a different physique from us Chinese. Dick shrugged his shoulders and said, "I can't rely on this." ”

After a few more conversations with Marriner, Dick said goodbye and left, after all, the team's training could not be delayed, and Marriner sent him out of the door, only then turned around and closed the door.

"No wonder you work so hard, it's a good thing for you to have a manager who values you so much."

Marriner's wife's evaluation of Dick changed a little, in any case, the other party can value her husband, which means that her husband will be better and smoother at work, and a wife certainly wants to see her husband's career develop better, so that she will live better.

"He's really always looked up to me. Although he doesn't know how to train, I know that it's not very difficult for him to find an assistant coach with better training, he's a very accurate person. Marriner laughed slightly: "Will continue to use me, probably because he feels more familiar with me." ”

"It's much better than the first two Italians who got you to the second team anyway." The wife is completely on her husband's side: "Since he is good to you, then I will not say anything bad about him in the future." ”

Looking at his angry wife, Marina laughed: "I told you, did he infect me with my cold this time?" ”

The wife was stunned for a moment, and then shouted: "I declare Dick to be the persona non grata of my family!" ”

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

After returning to the training ground, Dick handed over the training plan to a few assistant coaches, and then the training began to be orderly, Dick smiled, it is estimated that Marriner will not be able to come back in a week, and then there is less chatting around the person who directs the game, which is really a little unaccustomed......

Marina's illness could not stop the passage of time, and soon Atletico Madrid ushered in the second round of the Copa del Rey in midweek, against Osasuna, who are at the bottom of the La Liga table, so they did not have the heart to spend too much strength in the Copa del Rey, although Dick sent all the substitutes to play the Copa del Rey, still easily defeated the opponent 3-1 at home to advance to the third round.

From the third round, it will be played home and away, Atletico Madrid drew last season's dark horse Rayo Vallecano, and interestingly, in the next league, Atletico Madrid's opponent is also Rayo Vallecano......

At this time, Theresa didn't mention anything about welcoming Dick to Rayo Vallecano, and for Rayo Vallecano's current head coach Vazquez, he must have been very unhappy before, but this time, he was able to show the chairman through three consecutive encounters that he was the most suitable manager for Rayo Vallecano!

If Dick knew this idea of Vázquez, then he would definitely drag a sentence, such as a phoenix flying thousands of miles, not a sycamore does not live, no practice does not eat, no liquor spring does not welcome, you a rotten bird catches a dead mouse, and sees my phoenix flying from above, but shouts at me, "Go!" What kind of mentality is this, who wants to eat your dead rat......

Fortunately, Vázquez would not have expressed this emotion, otherwise Dick's answer would probably have made him angry to death—a poisonous tongue that can drag the text is a good poisonous tongue......

Vazquez's Rayo Vallecano did not show any signs of going head-to-head, and they are now seventh in the table, maintaining this level for the second year in a row, which is already quite top for a promoted team, but they came to the first league game after Dick's recovery......

After being taught by Dick, Atletico's players played at a very good level in this game, with their running and attacking performances at the top throughout the game, and although Rayo Vallecano's players were similarly positive, they were still beaten by Atletico Madrid in both halves with one goal each from Jardel and Belleron, and two goals at home - and Atletico will take on Rayo Vallecano away in the following week.

The victory in this game made many critics praise, because in this game, Rayo Vallecano did not perform badly, and their strength was not weak, but Atletico Madrid was able to perform better than the opponent and won the final victory with an overwhelming advantage, which is enough to prove that Atletico Madrid can now become more stable, and the performance of Jadel and Belleron has also affirmed Dick's vision, the heavy introduction of Makelele and Thuram has strengthened Atletico's defense, and Belleron is becoming more and more like a top midfield commander, Jardel has fully demonstrated his goalscoring ability – with Belleron scoring in the last three games and five in the last five league games, it's no surprise that Atletico have the results they have now.

Despite Real Madrid's brilliant eight-game winning streak and still leading the table by three points, Atletico Madrid quickly turned around the unfavorable situation after the winter break, which is enough to make everyone more confident in Atletico - they do now have the ability to challenge for the title in La Liga, as long as they can continue to perform like this, and in the League Cup, they are also the favorites to win the championship - and now their odds to win the title have changed from 15 to 15 at the beginning of the season to 1 to 2 now. There are only three teams with lower odds than them - Inter Milan in Serie A, Liverpool in the Premier League, and Barcelona in La Liga......

Mr. Rodriguez's "Perspective Mirror" column has not commented on Atletico Madrid for a long time, because in the face of such results, he is not easy to evaluate, at most he occasionally criticizes Dick, saying that he goes to nightclubs, disrespects opponents, and goes to Australia for holidays...... Dick did not respond to this assessment, in fact he did not look at it, which made Mr. Rodriguez very uncomfortable, and there was nothing more embarrassing than thinking that he was punching someone hard, but when he hit someone, others did not react at all......
