"Damn, these stupid reporters think they can catch my sore feet? As long as you can win, what if anyone is dissatisfied? I don't eat by pleasing you......"

After the press conference, Dick was called into his office by the elder Hill, and Mr. Chairman was quite happy to win this crucial game, and encouraged Dick to keep up the good work, go one step further, and try to win all the next opponents in one go, and succeed in relegation......

Dick was naturally submissive, and by the way, he stabilized his little power, and then returned to the locker room to announce the team's explanation.

On the way home for the driver, Dick was very proud, the two goal cards were not spent in vain, and once this victory was won, his position could be regarded as initially stable.

After returning home, Dick greeted old Franco very happily, looking at old Franco's happy and somewhat complicated expression, Dick smiled, and then made a "V" gesture to old Franco, and then went upstairs by himself......

Franco Sr. is actually similar to those Kiko guards, he likes the iconic figure of this team very much, but this game made Franco Sr. a little shaken, Kiko didn't play, the team still won, is Kiko really not good? Was Dick right?

After all, old Franco is older, so naturally he is not as fanatical as the star chaser, and he has heard Dick's analysis, so now he can only think about what the next game will look like......

Back at his quarters, Dick lay down comfortably, and then focused on the ring, which he knew how to use now that he had focused, and the ring would show his inventory in front of him, as well as the rewards he might get......

Why is it possible? Because he played so many games in the second team, he got a total of four cards, all of which were beginner - the investigation card he had used before, the weather card can designate the weather conditions that appear in his favor during the game, the status bonus card, which can randomly give a 5% bonus to the status of a certain main player in the team, and the sluggish card, which randomly makes a certain main force of the opponent drop in form.

"These three cards are useless, I led the team to win the first game in 10 rounds of Atletico Madrid, there should be a good card......

Dick thought so, and the ring didn't disappoint him, and soon he got his first premium card after the game......

Advanced Fall Cards, used before a match, designate a fatal fall from one of the opposing team's main forces at a certain location.

"Well, such a card is almost equivalent to a goal card......"

Dick quickly figured out how to use such a card, for example, when facing a heavyweight opponent, having one of the opponent's main central defenders specify that he would fall once in the box, so that if he arranged for his player to focus on attacking from the opponent's side, he might fall inexplicably and let Dick's team score a goal!

In some heavyweight matches, such a mistake is enough to change the final result of the entire competition!

"It seems that the ones that can really help have to be advanced cards, and the role of primary cards can't be relied on too much...... Premium cards are hard to come by, so you don't have to win such an important game to get a premium card. But it seems that it should be, otherwise you can get a card like this every time you win a game, and it will be a little too easy to lead the team to play......"

Four goal cards, four other cards, Dick looked at them for a while and then took them back, then put his hands behind his head and began to start.

Today's win is a good start – and the schedule is in his favour, with the next game coming to Valencia in a week's time, and the rest of the fixtures are tighter, with two Copa del Rey semi-finals against Barcelona in two weeks.

Ranieri can't play in the league, can't play in Europe, and the Copa del Rey game is still relatively good, starting from the second round, they have eliminated the second division team Las Palmas, the third division team Real Federation, and the La Liga team Rayo Vallecano, and gloriously reached the semifinals of the Copa del Rey - it can be seen from these opponents that Atletico Madrid can enter the semifinals, not because of their excellent performance, but because they have a good schedule - as the runners-up of the Copa del Rey last season, they only started playing from the second round, that is, the round of 32, And the first two rounds were either a second division team or a third division team, and even the only La Liga team they encountered, Rayo Vallecano, was chosen by Atletico Madrid because of their previous excellent performance and all their focus on the league......

"You can't give up the Copa del Rey...... Hmph, I only played less than ten games with Atletico Madrid, and three of them were against Barcelona, which can be regarded as a chance for me to retaliate......"

Dick thought to himself, but of course he knew that with Atletico's current form, it seemed that they were still a little short of beating Barcelona and needed to make the team stronger.

"There is still a lack of strength for two people...... Gamarra, Juninho, these two guys are the players I desperately need right now. ”

Gamarra, an excellent defender, he is not just the kind of defender with strong individual ability, but belongs to the kind of defender who can command the backline, but after transferring from South America to Atletico Madrid, he has not been very suitable for the style of La Liga, and the state of the whole team is not good, which has also made his form not very good......

In Dick's view, Gamarra is still absolutely powerful, which can be seen from a year or two later, when he was at Inter Milan and in Serie A, Gamarra is a defender with excellent defensive awareness - this is especially valuable in La Liga teams, after all, there are only a few defenders with top defensive awareness in La Liga.

If you can't activate this defender, then Atletico won't be able to play well in the next games - against a team like Malaga you can rely on attack to win, but against a team like Valencia and Barcelona you want to win by attacking alone? No kidding, at least when facing Valencia, Dick would never dare to command Atletico Madrid's players to press the attack!

The teams that have pressed Valencia in attack this season have suffered a lot, Lazio, who have been beaten by them 5-2, and Barcelona, who are about to be beaten by them 4-1...... On the contrary, Real Madrid, who used defensive counter-attacks against them, easily beat Valencia 3-0 in the Champions League final, and Dick, who knows a lot about those seasons, naturally understands this.

"Away from home you need to play on the counter-attack...... It's a pity that there is a lack of fast horses, but isn't Real Madrid also without fast horses? As long as it's organized, you won't lose even if you can't win. ”

After thinking about it carefully, Dick fell asleep deeply, although the team will have a holiday tomorrow, but he can't rest, for all the next games, Dick will start to make an overall plan......

"Robert, in yesterday's game, the defensive problems were still exposed a lot."

Early the next morning, Dick arrived in his office, followed by his assistant Marriner.

Hearing Dick say this, Marriner nodded, "That's right...... Tightening the control of the midfield still conceded two goals, and the back line is not a unit. ”

"Yes, in terms of the whole, the second team is better than them...... It's just that the strength of the second team is a little worse, otherwise I would have wanted to transfer the second team directly to the first team...... Haha, it's a joke, I'm not going to do it, I know the gap between La Liga and La Liga. ”

Marriner glared for a moment - it's not good to joke about something, joke about this!

Dick rubbed his eyebrows: "Actually, there are candidates in the team who can organize the defense......"

"Carlos Gamarra." Marrina replied quickly.

Dick laughed, "Let's go together...... His defensive awareness is unquestionable, and he was also at the heart of the defence when he played in the Paraguayan national team and in the Brazilian league, and in this respect, Ranieri has a good eye for the Italian coach...... I wonder why he made Atletico's defence look like this! ”

Marriner shrugged his shoulders, he couldn't figure this out, as an Italian coach, Ranieri still has a few brushes, Valencia is known for its solid defense this season, people say that it is because they have a Cooper who is good at defense, but in fact, everyone in the circle knows that Cooper did not bring any new players, Valencia's defensive foundation was played well by Ranieri, but after Ranieri came to Atletico Madrid, Atletico Madrid's original passable defense became a mess, conceding more than two goals per game on average, This situation is really complaining......

"Although we need to get enough points to get relegation and we have to strengthen our attack, we also need to strengthen our defense." Dick said decisively: "The configuration of our back line is not bad, Capdevilla and Aguilera are not the top in La Liga, but they are also first-class, there are few teams that can be stronger than us on the side, Chamot is also an experienced defender, but the whole back line is not formed, which makes our defense look so bad...... Now in midfield, Serena and Baraja can provide enough help at the back, and if Gamarra can show his level in the Brazilian league, then relegation will be a few points more certain. ”

"I thought you didn't want to use him." Marriner said a little strangely: "You removed his main position as soon as you came up, why is that?" ”

"Just let him calm down on the bench." Dick said lightly: "Gamara has always been the main central defender, but the performance has not been as good as expected, so his pressure is actually very high, he is not a young player anymore, he doesn't need to accumulate experience, what he needs is just to adjust his mentality." ”

"What do you want to do?" Marrina asked.

"I'm going to talk to him and have a good talk to him and let him know what he does and what he's good at on the pitch." Dick nodded and said: "I'll do the work of talking to him, but there are still five days before the next game, and these five days of training will make him the playmaker at the backline, and this job is up to you." ”

"I see." Marriner nodded: "You arrange his specific duties, and I familiarize him with his position on the training ground, right?" ”

"Yes, that's it." Dick laughed, then reached out and patted Marina on the shoulder: "Robert, we will be a good partner, I will use people, you will train people, we will cooperate, and when the relegation is successful this year, let the whole La Liga see our strength next year!" ”
