Chapter 130: Football is a Business (Part I)
"Haha, what do we see? Portsmouth's goalkeeper actually had cramps, he actually cramped? Glero laughed out loud in the studio, "Reading is lost!" The Nigerian played everyone with his unique cunning. ”
In this situation, Brian got sparks on the gasoline drum and exploded on the spot, and he vented his frustration on the court for the second time.
As the referee blew two short whistles and one long whistle, Glero began to count Portsmouth's record so far: "This season they beat West Ham United and Nottingham Forest, drew with Crystal Palace, and beat the unbeaten Reading team with one less man, which is the most difficult bone to gnaw in the Championship this year." ”
It's just that the hardest team has a funny manager, and the post-game press conference lasted half an hour, in which he spent 5 minutes talking about the game, and then the remaining 25 minutes were spent commenting on the cheap goods at a local supermarket......
Of course, Portsmouth's results are not achieved by telling jokes, and the technical statistics after the game show this most intuitively and comprehensively, and they accounted for three of the top five players in the distance distance of this game, Kante; Drinkwater, and... Jamie. Jamie Vardy, crazy running, tough defense, and the momentum to score an absolutely desperate attack, is the magic weapon for this team to win now.
………………
Coaching a young and immature team must not try to squeeze every point of potential of the team like in the first half of the season, people have personality, and young people are even more so, and some people rise to the challenge; strong-willed, such as Margery; Mane; Kante, some people are calm and rational; Strategizing, Pierce; Drinkwater; Icardi; Meunier and Edward himself are all such personalities, and there are also people who are emotional and emotional, such as Mendy, Rudiger, Vardy and Ali.
Margery, Sadio Mane and N'Golo Kante are the kind of people who strive for continuous improvement, principled and uncompromising, who will soak themselves in various rooms every day to do extra training to make up for their shortcomings, and rarely need to be supervised. This kind of character also has weaknesses and shortcomings, and when they encounter defeats, the damage caused by this kind of player is simply a blow to the heart, and if he can't force Margery to face it positively like Edward did at the beginning, he will 100% lock himself in his room and think all day, causing a lot of psychological pressure on himself.
Icardi is a very intelligent representative of the team, good at thinking and summarizing, and they have a strong competitive spirit, what he often does is to look at a thing from God's point of view, strip the feelings from it, he doesn't like to put too much emotion into a thing, maybe football is the most serious thing Icardi has done so far.
Alli is often extremely emotional in the team, Mendy is a helpful amusement and Rudiger is always playing all sorts of annoying black music in the dressing room, the players that make up the Portsmouth club today.
Luckily, Hydward is still in control of the team, everyone listens to him, and they are a new group that has just set sail and everyone is working towards a goal.
But there's one place in the world where that's not the case.
……
After the game against Reading, the team ended training and Ward returned to his slightly cold apartment for the first time so early, but at 10:20 p.m., he suddenly received a chat message from Spain.
It reads: "I watched you guys play and played well. ”
Spain? Who is it? He never had many friends in Spain, and he rarely went to Catalonia, an independent country with all kinds of tax issues.
Since I don't know...... Hydward backhanded to check the opposite communication ID, well, coal boss, world-famous star Messi.
"Thank you, Messi."
Reach out and don't hit the smiley man... He couldn't find any adjectives.
The Argentine star was amazed by the excellent memory of the coach across from him, who was able to remember his account after so long.
Then I opened the video.
The two of them chatted without saying a word, and it was clear that Messi was indeed watching an ordinary Championship game very seriously, and the theme of the two of them was also his little brother Icardi who used to be at Barcelona.
chatting and chatting, Hydeward found that Messi's spirit was not high, and he was full of loss and disappointment. His eyes were fixed on a photo on the table, and his fingers were rubbing the hair of the family puppy back and forth.
Hehe, you're finally disappointed in Barcelona, brother, why don't you try it in Portsmouth?
He thought to himself that unlike most coaches, he really didn't have the slightest desire to coach Messi Hydeward, and after a short period of contact, the image of the spiritual giant in his mind had collapsed, and looking at him felt no different from looking at Mendy.
"If you don't have any energy, go and rest, Messi." He kindly persuaded.
Messi poured a glass of boiled water and put it in the palm of his hand: "I just can't sleep and want to talk to someone." ”
Take a sip.
Hydward said: "Guardiola is bad for you? ”
What's going on with this tone of voice facing your ex-girlfriend!
“……”
There's no going to talk about it anymore.
What kind of head coach are you TMD? Messi was so angry that he wanted to flip the table.
"Pep, he's leaving, he's in a bad mood."
Pep. Guardiola, the head coach of Barcelona, it is not news that he wants to leave at all, Guardiola took his wife Cristina to the concert on his 39th birthday, and the Barcelona fans who have not yet renewed his contract have personally adapted a song to celebrate his birthday, and Guardiola also readily promised that he would work for a year. But two years later, the European media has begun to hype up the news of the departure again, and the credibility is even higher. But from Messi's mouth, it still feels very different.
"I'll keep my mouth shut"
"It's okay, it's not news."
Hydward was struck in the heart, and this time it was his turn to flip the table.
Today is actually Guardiola's 41st birthday, his assistant Vilanova has also come out of the shadow of cancer, Barcelona just defeated Neymar's Santos on the stage of the Club World Cup a month ago, just when Messi felt that they could win a six-crown like they did when they first worked together in 2008, Guardiola said cruelly, it's over, it's really going to be over!
The atmosphere of today's dinner was eerie from start to finish, from Technical Director Subisareta to President Sandro Brown. On Russell's face, Subi said that Mr. Manager still has to think about it, but Messi knew from his expression and dodgy eyes that everything was almost over.
As soon as Russell took office, he sold Dimitro back to his old club Shakhtar Donetsk for 15 million, which he bought just a season ago for 25 million. Pep Guardiola was unhappy and did not want to lose Di Mitro, but the club told him that the team was strapped for money and needed cash. In fact, this is just Russell's attempt to prove that his former president Laporta is nothing more than a loser, and all this cannot escape Messi's eyes.
The turmoil is still playing out in the free skies of Barcelona. Cruyff returned the honorary president of the club awarded by Laporta, a move that pushed the struggle between the two presidents to "gaochao", and Guardiola was completely caught in the middle.
These damn struggles made Messi feel a little bored and tired, but many words, he could only hold back in his heart, Barcelona's struggle, Guardiola does not want his lover to be involved, which will hurt many people.
At the end of the day, football is just a business.
