Chapter 5
The regular training ground of the Spanish national team is never fixed in a single city, Madrid, Barcelona, Valencia...... The stadiums in these big cities have been requisitioned by the national team many times, and they can be regarded as the home of the bullfighting army.
Pies of Seville. The same goes for Juan Stadium.
The main stadium, which can accommodate more than 40,000 people, is not very large, but it is well-equipped and has hosted many important international events in history. Naturally, the stadium is also one of the training grounds for the Spanish national team.
However, although the national team's training camp was chosen in Sevilla, it will not play any matches here, but purely as a temporary assembly and training place.
The World Cup is about to start, and the Spanish team naturally wants to start assembling and strengthening joint training, but in Spain, no matter how much joint training is not of great significance, after all, the World Cup is not held in the Iberian Peninsula, and no matter how long you stay here, it will not be able to adapt to the venue and climate.
Therefore, although the assembly of the bullfighting team has begun for almost a week, the national team players who came here to report have not carried out too heavy training or game tasks, firstly, because the league has just ended, and it is not suitable for large-scale training at the beginning. After assembling at the Stade Juan, they will depart for France, where they will play a warm-up match against the French national team at the Parc des Princes in Paris, before heading off to the African continent.
In South Africa, they will get acquainted with the plateaus and climate, which are very different from those in Europe, and play some matches against some of the local amateur and semi-professional teams as a final warm-up before the official start of the World Cup.
The itinerary has been carefully arranged, and the training venue is mainly in Africa. The Juan Stadium, which is temporarily carried out by the Spanish national team, is only a regular reserve of physical training, as well as the guidance and analysis of some team tactics.
Because the season has just ended, many of the players have just finished their club journey, so they did not come to Sevilla to join the national team. Most of the players who come here are the best of some small and medium-sized clubs, and their ability is not bad, but they are limited by the overall strength of the club, so there are not so many games to play in comparison, so there will not be much problem with physical fitness and energy, so they are the first players to report here.
However, with the end of the Europa League and European competitions, more and more international players have begun to arrive here, and they are the second group of players to report to the national team.
As for the third and final group, they are basically players from the big teams, and these players have fought hard to the final stage for the league title or the Champions League title, and they have consumed a lot of physical energy and energy, so Bosque has been extra gracious and gave them almost a week of rest.
But Rao is so, over time, Pease. Juan Stadium has also become more and more lively, with more and more international players coming to report and join the team's joint training, so the stadium is always a noisy scene.
Bosque was not dissatisfied with the slightly disordered training situation, in fact, he had been prepared for such a situation for a long time, and it could even be said that this was the result of his "indulgence". The reason is simple, here, the team has not entered the real rhythm of training, after a tiring season, the players also have a lot of ideas and experiences to exchange with each other, this is not a big problem, as long as the team can devote themselves to the preparation for the World Cup after entering South Africa, then everything is not a problem, now, it is the last "easy moment" before the big game.
At this time, the international players were jogging on the field, chatting with each other, and bursts of chuckles were heard from time to time. The atmosphere was relaxed.
Bosque stood on the sidelines, nodding his head from time to time in the field, and suddenly, as if he remembered something, he turned his head to look at his assistant Javier who was standing beside him. Minano.
"Are all the boys here? The day after tomorrow, we will leave for France, and if there is still anyone who does not return by then, then we will have to let him buy a plane ticket to France at his own expense to find us. ”
"Most of the internationals have arrived, well, the Barcelona players have also arrived, they arrived yesterday and now it's just ...... I'll see, that's right, only Sergio and Albiol are left...... Oh, and Fan. They all play for Real Madrid. ”
Minano flipped through the cheat book in his hand and replied softly.
"It's a few of them...... Bosque smiled and nodded disappreciatively, "I guess they will also be the last players to arrive in Sevilla, who asked me to give them a few days off, this group of guys, it is estimated that they will not appear in Sevilla if they don't run out of energy during the vacation." ”
It sounds like a blame, but in fact, when Bosque said this, there was not a trace of frown on his face. After all, it was a few days of vacation that he personally approved for these players, although several Barcelona players who also had a few days off had come to the national team to report yesterday, but after all, the deadline for reporting had not passed, which means that the other party did not "violate the rules", and Bosque really had no reason to be angry and dissatisfied.
Moreover, Bosque's coaching resume has a great relationship with Real Madrid, and even he is still the best coach in the history of the Real Madrid team.
Not to mention that such behavior will be criticized by outsiders as "cronyism" or "connivance", to be honest, Bosque really doesn't mind at all.
Anyone anywhere in the world has a distinction between proximity and distance, a team is like a microcosm of a small society, if Bosque wants to completely control this team, then he must have his own "lineage", obviously, the player from Real Madrid is his "lineage".
That's why he's not afraid of being talked about by outsiders, not to mention that this is not the case, even if it is, so what? I just like the Real Madrid players and I rely on them, so what? If it weren't for the fact that Real Madrid has been in decline in recent years, and there have not been too good players in the midfield position, otherwise, he would have handed over all the important positions in the team to Real Madrid players, who can say anything?
Anyway, he is the biggest boss of the national team, he can do whatever he says, he is so capricious, you have to obey it, and you have to accept it if you don't accept it! As long as the results of the national team are not bad, then no one can find any fault.
As Bosque's assistant all the year round, Minano naturally knows very well what his boss thinks, because of certain needs, in the national team, Bosque is relatively fair and does not discriminate everyone, but in some small things or details, it is inevitable that some players are biased towards Real Madrid. At this moment, hearing the boss's smiling tone, he had no choice but to smile and nod.
"But ......," Bosque thought for a moment and ordered, "Let's call Real Madrid, don't really miss the time to report." ”
Although Bosque is intentional to maintain the players of the Real Madrid family, but the rules are the rules, if the Real Madrid players miss the assembly time, it is a violation of the rules of the national team, and Bosque has to punish them - in such a matter, Bosque does not dare to "fake", one is a damage to his own majesty, and on the other hand, if he helps too much, it will inevitably cause dissatisfaction among the international players from other clubs, thereby causing instability within the team.
Of course, Bosque had his assistant "remind" Real Madrid, which in itself was a form of maintenance.
"Okay, Coach Vincent, I'll inform the ...... over there"
Before the words fell, in the direction of the gate of the training ground in the distance, there was a roar of the accelerator, and then, the sound of "crackling~" also faintly came, which is a very popular metal rock music in Europe and the United States.
"What's going on? Why is there such a loud noise?! ”
Bosque was stunned for a moment, he didn't expect that outside the training ground of the national team, there would suddenly be such a loud "noise", and then his face was a little unpleasant, and he scolded Minano with a calm face.
Minano was also a little bewildered by the sound coming from a distance, but his eyes were good, and he could see at a glance the parked, rather stylish red roadster, and a few figures walking down from above.
So his face suddenly pulled down, and he muttered, "Well, Mr. Vincent, I don't think there is a need to make this call anymore, those guys...... Here it comes! ”
……
In fact, there is still a long distance between the training ground and the parking lot. On this field, there have long been a lot of vehicles parked, including some famous cars of some world brands, and it is clear that these are the private cars of some stars of the national team.
It stands to reason that Ramos drove the car in at a gallop all the way, and parked here, there is no problem at all, the parking lot, it was originally for parking vehicles, where would there be any problems?
But Ramos, this guy bought a new sports car with a sao bag, with the intention of showing off, not to mention the car along the way, the audio is also very large, heavy metal rock has always been "boom boom ~" resounding, although on the road galloping, the music is jumping, the big guy is jumping all the way and shouting, this feeling is very cool and exciting, but when it comes to the training ground, the sound is still not turned off, which is a bit too much.
From the sound being able to be transmitted from the parking lot to the training ground, it can be seen how "shocking" Ramos has opened up the sound.
