Chapter 164: Someone Else
Yu Mo didn't expect it badly, the rabbit wouldn't turn into a fox if he was forced to be in a hurry. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 Info Arsene Wenger doesn't change even when cornered, thinking of himself as a stooge of Pete Hillwood, barking everywhere and biting people everywhere.
This is a matter of values, and if it can be easily changed, how can it sit in the position it is today?
So after touching the nail at the old man's place, Wenger did not become angry, nor did he break the jar, but fell into a state of complete anxiety.
Perfectionists don't succumb to reality easily, anxiety is the norm for managers, it's an international break and the media focus isn't on club level. After going back and forth, the matter ran aground, and everyone tacitly knew that there was no such thing, what should be done.
Only the guy who really kept Arsenal in mind and watched the doorway instead of watching the excitement noticed the atmosphere of the mountain rain coming and the wind filling the building.
"Andy, don't you think it's weird?"
On Thursday morning, in the Sky Sports data room, Martin Taylor rummaged for a while and still found nothing. It just so happened that Andy Gray also came in to look up information, so the two omitted all foreplay and went straight to the topic.
"Well, it's a little, it's been a week, and no one has stood up and shouted for the head coach!"
"What does that mean?"
'Arsene Wenger's impact at Arsenal is not as big as he thought.
"Maybe you just don't want to complicate things and put a gag order?"
"It's normal for players to show support for the manager, okay!"
"It looks like we should use our personal connections to get to the bottom of the situation."
"Mo went on vacation!"
'He's deliberately keeping his distance and Arsene Wenger has most likely hit a soft nail.
"Okay, who are you going to find this time?"
"Ashley Cole"
That night, at the WESTWOOD bar, Andy Gray and Martin Taylor each wore a baseball cap, wearing bells and whistles, like a pair of old comrades who went to the mountains and went to the countryside to experience life, and entered this gold cave with curiosity on their faces.
The two often went to bars to fool around when they were players, but that was 20 years ago, and time has passed, and nightclubs are no longer what they used to be.
The energetic music rushing straight into the eardrums makes people can't help but shake along, the scantily clad bewitching sluts on and off the stage make people's throats dry, and the bizarre cocktails emit a seductive light, and you don't need to smell deeply to be attracted by the fragrance that fills the air, and you can't help but get moving.
Wine, sex, wealth, gas, everything is available here, and it has a fatal attraction for young and wealthy guys. Ashley Cole's highly sought-after popular fried chicken is naturally not immune, if it weren't for a guy who can steal the show and pull hatred everywhere, he would have already fallen into titles such as "The Little Prince of Nightclubs".
"Ten years ago it wasn't like this......."
Martin Taylor is still lamenting that Andy Gray has come over with two cocktails with ease.
"Let's go, take this so you won't be treated like a monster."
Both of them are old rivers and lakes, and they don't fight unprepared battles, so they not only made an appointment with an informant before coming, but also confirmed the location of Ashley Cole and Cheryl's VIP box.
Andy Gray once expressed doubts about this, thinking that professional paparazzi would not have such timely and accurate information, but Martin Taylor thought so, and looked confident.
"Hey, this waiter has been following us all the time, did you ask for it?"
After walking and chatting for a distance, Andy Gray noticed something strange out of the corner of his eye.
Martin Taylor smiled mysteriously and lowered his voice: "His name is Leo, and he is my informant. ”
"Wow, so young?" Andy Gray looked skeptical, but did not dare to make a loud noise.
The three of them had already walked to the VIP box area, which was much quieter than in the lobby outside. The two old men didn't look very serious in the first place, and the appearance of whispering together was even more GAY, but fortunately, the waiter behind them was not surprised and didn't take what they heard seriously.
"I'll tell you the truth, he introduced it to me by Mo."
Martin Taylor didn't bother to explain carefully, just threw the bombshell. Andy Gray was really blown up all over the face, and he was speechless for a while.
Leo, the young waiter, took the initiative to come up and explain: "Actually, I volunteered, Mo didn't want me to take the risk, but I felt the need to do something." ”
Andy Gray was still surprised, and Martin Taylor said with emotion: "It was Mo's first season with the team, and the French made this their home base, and Nicola Anelka was a regular here......"
As they spoke, the three of them were already approaching their destination, and Leo stepped forward and pointed to the box number not far away, "This is it." ”
The two old rivers and lakes knew the truth of protecting the informant very well, and after stuffing a 50 pound tip, they began to wait.
Because of Youmo's relationship, Martin Taylor has the heart to knock on the door and try it, but Andy Gray thinks that Ashley Cole may be playing too well to take care of them, and he will be avoided as a paparazzi.
The two really didn't plan to expose the nightlife of England's popular fried chicken, and they didn't plan to shoot or record remotely, just to get an in-depth understanding of the players' real state. However, the two are not familiar with each other, not at all, and this kind of occasion can easily arouse the vigilance of the other party and cause unnecessary trouble.
I can only act at the opportunity to see if I can find a way to get in.
In order to prevent accidents, the two found a good corner, which could not only avoid people's eyes and ears, but also observe the movement of the box. The long wait was boring, so the two began to chat with each other, pretending to clink glasses and drink from time to time.
In fact, it is a bit redundant, in the eyes of outsiders, they are more like a pair of old comrades who have successfully hooked up, which makes people avoid them.
"You haven't told me yet, what is the purpose of Mo introducing the waiter here to you as an informant?" Andy Gray brings up the old story again, with a curious look.
"Leo was almost opened by Nicola Anelka's brother, and it was Mo who saved him. As a token of appreciation, he volunteered to act as an informant and report to Mo on the players' nightlife. Martin Taylor casually explained: "These things are originally the manager's concern, but Wenger doesn't seem to bother with that, Mo is the boss of the players' minds. ”
"Haha, as far as I know, Ferguson has informants in various famous bars in Manchester, and it's easy to get rid of those!" Andy Gray is not without pride.
"No, it's different, Mo doesn't object to the players' nightlife, as long as it's not too out of line, and it's not going to be used as a reason to control them." Martin Taylor looked serious, "Leo is a conscientious guy and has the convenience of his position, so it is a habit to keep it to this day." ”
"Then why did you become your informant again?"
"In one of the chats, I asked Mo what the players' nightlife was all about, and Mo gave me Leo's contact details."
"I trust you so much!"
"I probably think this kind of thing is normal for professional players, and it is easy to cause mental problems when it is secretive, which then affects the performance on the field."
"Hey, who's that?"
"Jose Mourinho!"
"Wow, I think I hear the sound of the camera shutter, are there any peers?"
"There really are, and I know them!"
"It's hilarious!"
......
Jose Mourinho meets Ashley Cole!
Early on Friday morning, the front page of The Sun broke a big news story that instantly overwhelmed the upcoming World Cup qualifiers, causing a widespread earthquake.
In fact, it is normal for managers to have private contact with players from other teams, and as long as they are not caught, the FA will often turn a blind eye and will not use it as a reason to issue a ticket. But the impact this time is so great, and the direct rivalry between the two teams is there, and it's hard to say whether Mourinho did it on purpose.
It can only be dealt with seriously.
Due to the need for a hearing to determine whether the two parties have violated the transfer regulations, the penalty decision will not be implemented until next week at the earliest. So this blockbuster news was the first to detonate in the fan camps of the two teams, and for a while, it was noisy and smoky.
Due to the disgraceful role played by Jose Mourinho when Mark Overmars moved to Barcelona, Arsenal fans did not suspect their players, but instead pointed the finger at the Portuguese, believing that the past was repeating itself.
Not to be outdone, Chelsea fans claimed that Ashley Cole had reached out to Mourinho because he couldn't stand the impact of a weekly salary of less than £20,000 and the impact of the upheaval at the top.
The two sides argued and argued, and the two clubs were quick to react and respond to the doubts.
Mourinho, for the Chelsea side, took matters into his own hands and admitted that there had been contact between the two sides, but it was just a chat and a drink between friends. This attitude is obviously fearless, and the deep-pocketed Chelsea people are not afraid of fines, and if it leads to chaos among rivals, or even directly determines the league title, it doesn't matter if you are infamous on your back.
Arsene Wenger, for their side, reacted violently, claiming that the opponent's off-the-board move had led to the team's 67-game unbeaten run and that they needed to pay a price for it. The French were already in dire straits, and this incident was added to the fire, how could they not resist the attack and bluntly said that Chelsea should be penalized.
When someone heard this, they immediately found the clues!
In Arsenal's match against Manchester United, it was Ashley Cole's mistake that caused the team to not only fall behind by two goals, but also play one less player on the field!
Wenger brought up the old matter again at this time, obviously suspicious of the loyalty of his disciples!
It's a big fuss!!
On Saturday morning, Yumo, who had finished his holiday a day early, went to the conference room on the top floor of the club's office building to listen to the opinions of all parties.
Ashley Cole was unable to attend the international competition, and Wenger was still worried about how to speak, but now he is just borrowing the chicken to take the eggs and test his attitude.
As a result, as soon as You Mo spoke, the entire venue immediately fell silent.
'I have known about this for a long time, Mourinho has been chasing Ashley Cole but has been rejected. It is not surprising that this incident was exposed, and I suspect that the reporters of the Sun were also brought by the Portuguese. ”
The meaning of the words was self-evident, but Wenger was attacked by the anger that had been accumulating all along, and questioned: "If you know, why didn't you tell me earlier?" ”
You Mo's eyes were not originally on the head coach, but when he heard such a question, he turned his eyes and looked at the Frenchman.
There was no sadness or joy on his face, and there was no wave in his voice.
"Because I believe in him."
.......
At this point, there is no possibility of reconciliation.
On the surface, this incident was directed by Mourinho and Ashley Cole's lack of vigilance, and after the incident was exposed, it is very likely that the FA's top 50 boards will have too much impact on the competition for the league title, and the possibility is very small. In reality, the impact of this incident on both sides is very different, and the Chelsea people can sit back and watch the tiger fight and enjoy the benefits of the fisherman.
Because in the previous incident, Arsene Wenger has stood on the opposite side of the player and took the initiative to exonerate the president of the club. As soon as the matter in front of him was exposed, his remarks had the element of doubting whether the disciple was loyal, which was equivalent to sitting on a solid position, and there was no possibility of changing the court!
What about Yumo?
Will you put yourself on the opposite side of the player?
The conclusion is obvious.
In the process of rebellion all the way, the media is only helping, and the players are fundamental, if there is no group of brothers to help him tie up, how can there be today's scenery?
No matter which club is the president, he will not be afraid of individual players, if the whole team is not twisted into a rope to advance and retreat together, who can endure the repeated pressing?
The presence of the manager is a buffer between the club's top management and the players, which can avoid direct conflict between the two sides and the conflict escalating. However, the buffer is based on neutrality, and once the manager is firmly on the side of the club's hierarchy, the players become the object of suspicion, where is the effect of easing the conflict?
What's more, the head coach has direct management of the players, and no one dares to move with Youmo's special identity, how can a guy like Ashley Cole who hit the muzzle of the gun be spared!
Someone who guarantees it can't escape verbal criticism, let alone a fine.
3 internal suspensions and a fine of £30,000!
The punishment was passed after discussion at a high-level meeting, and You Mo did not object.
This thing is very psychologically clear, Ashley Cole has long attracted attention because he has been staying in a nightclub, and Mourinho's appearance is even more dangerous, once he is caught, no one can help him prove his innocence!
Neither can he, so he just takes a stand and does not oppose the penalty decision.
So in this round of the contest, the two sides were temporarily divided, and the Chelsea man became the direct beneficiary.
Arsene Wenger's attitude, meanwhile, has reassured Pete Hillwood that he doesn't have to worry about influencing him anymore.
The family, who had just finished their vacation, suddenly sank to the bottom.
The possibility that has always been the most feared has gradually become a reality, the personality conflict between Youmo and Wenger, as well as the huge changes in the external environment, have made the two drift apart and come to this point.
"Would you like to give Ashley Cole a call?"
That night, at home, Wang Dan walked to the guy who was meditating alone in the living room with his mobile phone and asked.
You Mo shook his head and didn't speak, but the mobile phone on the coffee table didn't listen to his command, and buzzed.
Picked up the phone, connected, and a familiar voice rang.
Martin Taylor.
“...... I suspect that the Sun's reporter was not brought by Mourinho, but someone else. ”
