Chapter 371: The situation is good
Dick knew why Moratti would make such big concessions, but Inter Milan in the next few years was indeed the best Inter Milan - although still unprofessional in many places, but with the foundation and fame that Moratti had laid in previous years, Dick was still confident that he could do his best.
The contract has not yet been signed, but as long as the contract stipulates that everything is in his hands and all transfers are at his disposal, then Dick is also confident that he will build a top team.
Although compared with the Bundesliga team, the Serie A team is full of shady scenes, and there are endless things such as accounting, Dick is not a person with moral cleanliness, as long as it does not affect his power, do accounts or something, let the club do it, anyway, the whole Serie A is like this, and he will not want to be a guy who challenges the world.
Of course, now the contract has not been finalized, everything is unknown.
He asked Moratti not to fire Cooper for the time being, completely out of consideration for the team as a whole, after Cooper got out of class, there was a crazy Zac Zaccheroni with characteristics completely opposite to him, only seeking offense, and then there was a more mediocre Mancini in the new season, not only to pay the salaries of three managers at the same time, but in this case, the whole team is demolished and rebuilt, I don't know how complicated the situation is, and Cooper finished this season, at least a complete Inter Milan remained, When the time comes, sell some of them, bring in some of them, and win over some of the core players, they will be able to repeat the process at Atletico Madrid, and as long as Moratti can always support him, he will have the confidence to build Inter Milan into an iron bucket!
Now Inter Milan's barbecue gang is still just a small circle of strength, Dick's headache is the clique in the dressing room, he doesn't have much experience in this situation - when he was at Atletico Madrid, Kiko was kicked out of him at the beginning, plus the support of old Hill, he said whatever he said in the club, and after coming to Dortmund, he also had the support of the high-level, he easily reorganized the team, and the situation of Inter Milan was much more complicated than these two teams, He also didn't want to put a lot of energy into internal friction after he took over - brother didn't have that much energy!
The next day, Dick led the whole team back to Dortmund, of course, there was no training on this day, so after returning to Dortmund, the players went home, and Dick went to the chairman's office.
"Di, come to me today, is there anything wrong?" Watzke is looking at the club's financial statements, he can't be a shirking chairman, Dortmund's finances are still relying on him to gradually turn around.
"Oh, there's something to discuss with Mr. President."
Dick closed the door to his office and sat down in front of Watzke.
Watzke put down the report, then took off his glasses and looked at Dick.
"Inter want me to coach." Dick said straight to the point.
Watzke's hand shook and he almost broke the glasses in his hand: "What? Di? Do you want to go in winter? What about the team? Where are we going to find your successor temporarily? ”
"Don't be nervous, Mr. President, I didn't promise them." Dick laughed: "Besides, I'm still going to receive that bonus, at least, I'll finish this season." ”
"Oh." Watzke let out a sigh of relief, he couldn't have thought of this, but Dick's sudden remark just now was a little too shocking for him to ......
"So, are you planning to leave in the summer?" Watzke put his glasses back on, and asked Dick.
"There's this idea." Dick didn't want to hide it, but nodded: "But I have to discuss it with you first, if you really don't want me to leave, it's no problem for me to fulfill the contract." ”
"No, Di, we said in the summer, you have to leave, Dortmund will not stay, because now Dortmund can't give you the opportunity to show your talents...... And to be honest, now you're at Dortmund, it's a bit of a waste, you brought the Champions League last season and saved us a lot of money in the transfer market to redeem ownership of the stadium...... You've done enough of all this and Dortmund should thank you. And, being able to know this in advance, we are also able to prepare in advance. ”
"Thank you for your understanding." Dick nodded, it was still very comfortable to deal with these Germans, at least to get together and disperse, they did a good job.
"Before I go, I'll leave one more league champion...... Well, and the German Cup, I haven't won this championship yet, so I can't leave any regrets. Dick said with a smile.
"Haven't you ever thought about winning another Champions Cup?" Watzke asked.
"I thought about it...... However, this is not something that can be done if you want to, Dortmund's current strength is indeed not enough to impact the championship of the Champions Cup, so you can only take one step at a time. Although we won against AC Milan, there was also a lot of luck, and winning the Champions Cup was not an easy matter. ”
Watzke nodded with some regret: "We know that too...... But there's always the hope that you'll be able to bring something more magical. ”
"I didn't get that magical." Dick shrugged his shoulders: "No matter how strong my ability is, there is a limit...... Now Dortmund, it is already difficult to attack the league title, the Champions League ...... Go as far as you can. ”
"I'm too greedy, too." Watzke laughed: "I cashed out more than 80 million in the transfer market and won the Champions Cup...... How can there be such a good thing. ”
"I'll go first." Dick stopped talking nonsense, but stood up: "Anyway, I'm still grateful to Dortmund." ”
"No, it should be Dortmund to thank you." Watzke shook hands with him tightly: "There are still seven months to go...... I'll cherish this time. ”
Dick let out of Watzke's office.
It's really nice to have a good time in Dortmund, but although the gazebo is good, it's not a place to stay for a long time, Dortmund is not, and neither is Inter Milan.
During this time, it is just a time for him to accumulate strength, and one day in the future, he will come back to Atletico Madrid as a savior!
Until then, he's going to have to work harder!
Not too many people know about this kind of conversation, and in the eyes of the outside world, the next season will continue to move forward normally, like a river, without even seeing a wave.
Two days after returning to Dortmund, Dortmund travelled to Bochum in the tenth round of the Bundesliga – and despite a very exciting and tiring midweek game for Dortmund, the players did not seem to be affected too much.
Dick continued to start Arshavin in this game, but hid Olic and put Donovan and Gomez in the attack, and rotated Borowski in midfield, and Ricken was given the opportunity to play.
Bochum are in the middle of the pack this season, but the team has a decent attacking force, scoring 19 goals in 10 league games, and they are not to be outdone in this game at home.
In a head-to-head match, Dortmund beat Bochum 4-2, although Bochum opened the scoring from the start, but Dortmund still dragged down their opponents in a fast attack, Donovan and Gomez scored a goal each in the first half, and shortly after the start of the second half, Warnes' header extended the lead to 3-1, although Bochum then pulled back a point, but Dede's shot from the back row fixed the score at 4-2.
After winning this game, Dortmund continued to put pressure on the top two in third position, and not to be outdone, Ramen and Bayern also won this round, chasing after Dortmund - Bremen and Dortmund are on the same points, Bayern are only one point less than Dortmund, and first-placed Bayer Leverkusen is only three points more than Dortmund, and Stuttgart is two points above Dortmund - such a stalemate form proves that this season's Bundesliga competition is fierce. On the other hand, it also proves that the dominance of Bayern and Borussia Dortmund is declining......
Bayern is in the throes, Mackay for Elber, the forward line still needs to adapt, and Dortmund is a complete overhaul, so naturally there will be other clubs coming out.
Dortmund is now in a good momentum, after winning this round of the league, they met the Bundesliga team Borussia Mönchengladbach in the second round of the German Cup, but now Borussia Mönchengladbach is in a bad situation in the league, they are now in the bottom two, and naturally do not have much energy to play in the German Cup, so although Dick rotated most of the main players in this game, and most of the players are resting, they still rely on the goals of Olic and Everton to beat Borussia Mönchengladbach 2-1, Advance to the third round of the German Cup.
The German Cup game hardly bothered Dortmund as their main players were given plenty of rest – Dortmund won again in the 11th round of the league the following weekend, and they won the league in a thrilling way, with Barbarez's goal in the 14th minute quieting the Westpha-Lun Arena, and Romeo's goal in the 60th minute giving Hamburg a two-goal lead, but in the next 10 minutes, Dortmund completed an incredible comeback!
Four minutes after Hamburg's goal, Alves, who had the assist, broke through the defense of the opposition full-backs and then crossed low into the box, where Gomez met the ball and pushed it back to save a point.
Just when Hamburg was still a little overwhelmed, Dortmund's quick attack quickly created another chance, a minute later, Arshavin dribbled into the box, the Hamburg defender hurriedly put him to the ground, the referee awarded a penalty, Arshavin in one fell swoop, equalised!
The bigger blow was yet to come - three minutes later, the brave Arshavin made a connection between two people in the penalty area, and then hit the ball into the corner of the goal with a beautiful stab - 3-2, Dortmund took the lead!
In the 64th, 66th, and 69th minutes, Dortmund miraculously scored three goals in five minutes to complete this almost incredible reversal!
"It was a fantastic game...... Arshavin has proven his strength once again! Confidence? I certainly have confidence in my team, no matter what the circumstances. Because they've proven their worth many times! We're still third, but we're only two points ahead of first, which is a huge improvement for us as well. ”
In this round of the league, Bayer Leverkusen, who were previously in first place, suffered a draw, which left them only one point ahead of Borussia Dortmund and slipped to second place, Stuttgart returned to first place, and Bayern lost to Schalke at 04, already four points behind Dortmund...... Dortmund's current situation is really good.
