Dick didn't do anything at this time, he was just working at the desk, observing the information of the next opponent Salamanca - through the last game, Dick in addition to gaining his tactical confidence, he also understood one thing, no matter how good the tactics are, the last game was because the opponent was relatively mediocre and there was little room for tactical conversion, so he easily turned the situation around, but then if he didn't know anything about the opponent's strength and characteristics before the game started, It's a little too difficult to rely on the observation of the first half and the adjustment of the half-time to deal with the opponent.

The so-called knowing oneself and knowing one's opponent will win all battles, and without understanding the opponent, how to improve the winning rate?

However, although Dick has assigned a task to Marriner to collect information about the next opponent, it is not something that can be done in a day or two, if it has been arranged before, and the scouts have already observed the next opponent's game and collected the opponent's intelligence when their team is playing, then they can start to develop tactics immediately after the game, and then arrange and train the players tactically, which is the right way - but this task is only arranged when Atletico Madrid is playing. Even if Atletico Madrid's second team scouts are efficient, they won't have information for Dick so quickly.

But at this point, a pillow was brought to him when he needed to sleep—and when Dick returned to his apartment after the game, he was rewarded for winning the game.

A low-level investigation card that you can use to get the latest information of your next opponent.

Immediately after using this survey card, a large stack of information about the next opponent, Salamanca, appeared on Dick's desk, including the opponent's main lineup and player characteristics, which were written in considerable detail.

"Damn, this thing works, I hope I can get it after every game...... But that's the rudimentary? What does the advanced one do? Dick looked at the large stack of materials in front of him, and couldn't help but regret a little in his heart - such a useful thing should be used before the start of an important game......

But since it's been used, it's useless to regret it, and it just so happens that this information is not of no value before the start of the game, so you don't have to use it in vain.

So Dick basically stayed at home for the past two days, breakfast and lunch during the day were eaten in the canteen of the academy, and dinner was fast food bought in a nearby supermarket.

"Hmm, a more advanced survey card would probably be more detailed? After all, Atletico Madrid's second team doesn't have very good scouts, and what they collect is nothing more than the opponent's personnel situation that can be seen in FM, as long as Atletico Madrid's second team's intelligence collection is on track, this kind of low-level investigation card is probably useless. Dick thought to himself.

Although such a survey card doesn't seem to be of much use, it makes Dick see the possibility - the cards that may appear after winning the game will definitely not be limited to scoring goals, there should be all kinds of cards, with goal cards, maybe there will be erasure cards, such as erasing the opponent's goal and the like, Dick himself already has a lot of confidence in his tactical command ability, plus the help of these small cards...... Hmph, isn't the probability of winning a lot higher?

Dick deeply knows that as a simple head coach, if you want to stabilize your position and increase your income, the best way is to be able to continue to lead the team to victory - you don't necessarily need to have a good relationship with the chairman, as long as you can continue to lead the team to win, even if you have a bad relationship with the chairman, there will be more teams lined up to coach yourself......

In this circle, the head coach who can lead the team to win is.

Originally, the team had resumed training yesterday, but Dick told Marriner that he wanted to study the opponent's information, so he didn't go to the training ground at all, but handed over all the training content to Marriner, and today he had studied almost it, and Dick also felt that he should go to the training ground to have a look.

In the past two days, he has been observing his opponent's information day and night, which made Dick also start to become unkempt - I don't know why, his nails and beard seem to start growing very quickly after being reborn, and in just two days, the beard on his chin has become like a weed, listening to the sound of the electric shaver like mowing grass, Dick feels a little distressed.

After finally cleaning up, Dick opened the door and went out to the training ground, but as soon as he arrived at the training ground, Marriner told him that the club's general manager, Mr. Hill Jr., had asked him to go to the office for a talk.

"Fuck, he didn't have anything to talk to me about and delayed my work, can he take this responsibility?"

Of course, this was muttered in Dick's stomach but did not say it, but he was also the general manager of the club, and if he wanted to delay his work, he seemed to have more confidence.

After explaining a few words to Marriner, he asked him to catch the set-piece drill tactics today, and then Dick walked out of the academy and prepared to call a car to meet Junior Hill at Atletico Madrid's headquarters.

As a result, as soon as he walked out of the academy door, he was immediately dazzled by a flash of light, and more than a dozen reporters immediately rushed up, countless microphones aimed at his mouth, asking their own messy topics, and the voices were mixed together, so that Dick couldn't understand what they were saying at all......

"Stop me!"

Dick yelled suddenly, then stretched out his arms and pushed the two reporters closest to him out, "What are you going to do?" Are there any questions that come one by one, in English, understood? I don't fucking understand Spanish yet! ”

After Dick shouted these words in English, the scene fell silent, and immediately a reporter shouted in English: "Mr. Dick, may I ask if what has been said in the newspapers these days is true?" ”

"What did the newspaper say?" Dick was stunned - how could he care about reading the newspaper these two days......

"That's the one you made a bet with Rodriguez, a reporter from World Sports......" another reporter reminded, while everyone else scolded Dick for pretending to be a coerce — didn't you hide in your room and watch the newspaper and steal fun? Think you've become famous overnight?

This really wronged Dick, he really hasn't read the newspaper these days.

"That's it...... Of course it's true. Dick nodded: "That's right, I bet with him, I don't think Barcelona will win any official tournaments this season." ”

"Is it true that if you lose, you'll run naked around downtown Madrid?" A reporter asked excitedly.

"I think you'd better get the camera ready and go and shoot the scene where Mr. Rodriguez eats the microphone. A lot of people have eaten on TV, but it seems that no one has eaten a microphone on live broadcast...... A microphone that big, with metal wire, foam foam and a plastic case, would have been so cool to eat, and if I were a food store owner, I'd definitely come up with a microphone-shaped pastry called 'Enjoy with Mr. Rodriguez', and I don't need money for this idea, whoever wants it will take it. Dick replied with a pout.

After answering these questions, Dick stood on the side of the road and wanted to wait for the taxi to come, the group of reporters were still pestering, Dick shouted angrily: "Gentlemen, I am now anxious to see my immediate boss, Mr. Little Hill, the general manager of the club, if you lose your job because you are late, be careful of my newspaper and newspaper office, if you don't have anything to eat, I will ask you to take care of the meal!" ”

This kind of "go to your house to eat if you lose your job" is really useful, and the reporters stopped one after another and looked at him with a very strange look.

"Mr. Dick, you can't wait for a taxi here......"

Musampa walked out of the crowd: "We all call taxis, did you call?" ”

"Fuck, calling again?" Dick was dumbfounded, then he shook his head.

"Well, I'll send you there." Musampa flashed the key in his hand: "It just so happens that I am also going to the headquarters of Atletico Madrid." ”

"Then you're welcome." Dick didn't say much, although he recognized Musampa as a reporter who asked a question that he felt a little uncomfortable with at the press conference, but he didn't embarrass Dick like other reporters, and Dick naturally didn't bother him.

Musampa smiled, then got into his OB van with Dick and headed off in the dust.

"Cut, Musampa is actually trying to curry favor with the head coach of the second team, and he has no future." Many reporters who knew Musampa shook their heads and said that the purpose of their visit today had been achieved, and they could go back to make a business.

"Meet you, I'm a reporter for the Marca newspaper, Alejandro Musampa." Musampa said to Dick as he drove.

"I'm Atletico second-team manager Dick, the best coach in the world in the future." Dick replied.

Musampa choked, is this guy such an arrogant person...... But thinking about his attitude towards the World Sports reporter, Musampa almost understands what kind of character Dick is - extremely confident, extremely vindictive, offending him, he will definitely always remember it......

"That bet...... Are you sure? You must know that Barcelona won the league in the first two seasons, and this season will set off for the treble......" Musampa asked tentatively.

"It's because they're heading for the treble that there's a high chance they're not going to get anything." Dick said it in passing, and then immediately covered his mouth.

Musampa frowned, then turned his head to look at him, a little suddenly realized.

"Please don't reveal it." Dick whispered, "If they're wary, I'm afraid I'll have to run around naked." ”

Musampa nodded: "I won't reveal it...... As a Madridian, I don't want to see Barcelona win any of them. ”

"Are you a Real Madrid fan?" Dick asked curiously.

"It's not." Musampa shook his head: "I'm an Atletico fan...... Whether Real Madrid or Barcelona don't win the title, that's what I want to see, and I don't want to see the manager of Atletico Madrid's second team going to the downtown area. ”

"That's good." Dick laughed, although he didn't fully believe Musampa, but anyway, since people said that they wouldn't reveal it, then trust others for the time being, besides, even if it is revealed, will Barcelona really be vigilant? You must know that after winning two league titles in a row but being out of the Champions Cup group stage for two consecutive years, it is normal for Barcelona to focus on the Champions Cup, and now there are signs of internal unrest in Barcelona, Van Gaal reuses the Dutch gang, ignores the local players, and the team's combat effectiveness is a sure thing, plus Figo and Rivaldo are dissatisfied with their low salary...... It's normal for Barcelona to fail this season.
