Chapter 52: Consideration

Linson finally knew what Mourinho meant by the best chance. ∈♀

"This is the opportunity you deserve, Lin, and I think you should take it." Sitting across from Linson, Mendes was pointed.

Lin Sen didn't speak, as if he was thinking about something.

Mendes's "deserved", Lin Sen can naturally hear the flattery, if you remove the feeling, the so-called deserved opportunity, probably talking about "qualifications", not everyone can coach Real Madrid, because Real Madrid's requirements for a head coach have never been as simple as a head coach.

Bosque was one of the best managers in Real Madrid's history, but he had to leave because they thought he was too unpretentious. Capello, who has been in charge of Real Madrid twice, also chose to leave after leading Real Madrid to the league title because Real Madrid felt that his coaching style was not flashy enough. Jose Mourinho looked like a perfect match for Real Madrid, but in the end he had to leave because of his conflict with the Real Madrid dressing room. And now, it's the turn of Carlo Ancelotti, who just won the Champions League for Real Madrid last season, why isn't Linsen surprised at all?! Because Lin Sen knows that he is not the only one who is not surprised by this, because everyone knows that Real Madrid can always find a reason to fire you.

It's just that, even so, Lin Sen has to agree with some of Mendes' views, and this is an opportunity.

Who wouldn't want to coach the best team in the world? This is the same mentality as the mentality of players who know that they are very likely to be used as bargaining chips or even swept away after a season or two to go to Real Madrid, but they are still eager for invitations from Real Madrid. Anyone knows that standing at the top of the pyramid is the easiest to fall, but they will still climb up desperately, because it symbolizes the apex.

Therefore, even Lin Sen can't say no to Real Madrid lightly. However, it's not easy to say no, but how easy is it to nod?

Lin Sen was born in Atletico Madrid, which is a well-known thing, although his relationship with Atletico Madrid was not good because of the way he left back then, but in his attitude towards Real Madrid, he was somewhat affected, of course, this is only an impact, Lin Sen really frowned at Real Madrid. After all, it comes down to the almost endless pestering of his players during his tenure as Manchester City manager, coupled with the unhappiness of last season, even a smile and a grudge are not played.

Even if he takes a step back, Lin Sen doesn't mind personally, but he also has to take into account the feelings of a group, this group, that is, Manchester City fans.

Lin Sen has never hidden that he is a very realistic person, and he has always held a very rational attitude when it comes to his attitude towards fans. As far as he allows, he never turned down any opportunity to get closer to the fans, such as asking his players to sign autographs and take pictures of the fans watching from the sidelines of the training ground after training. However, he by no means "pleases" the fans, and Linson does not deny that the support from the stands can be the twelfth of the team, but the decision of the game. After all, it's still the eleven people on the court.

There are things that can be done, and there are things that cannot be done.

Over the past few seasons, Manchester City fans have almost brought him to the altar. This is of course because Linsen has brought them countless joys, and in the new season, Manchester City also needs a manager, all Manchester City fans want Linsen to take over this Manchester City, although Linsen has long made it clear that he will not return to Manchester City, if Linsen continues to stick to his decision, it will not be a problem, but if at this time, Linsen switched to Real Madrid, it is tantamount to a slap in their face.

You know, in recent seasons, in addition to the sworn rival Manchester United, Real Madrid can be called the club that Manchester City fans hate the most. Not only did they poach their best players, but now, they want to poach their best coaches?

"I can't give you an answer right away, Jorge." After being silent for a long time, Lin Sen said slowly.

"Of course." Seeing that Lin Sen didn't refuse immediately, Mendes seemed to see hope, and he immediately said, "This is a big decision. ”

Seeing Mendes' appearance, Lin Sen, who knew what he was thinking, smiled, and then poured cold water on him, "Don't get excited, although I need to think about it, it shouldn't be very likely to go." ”

"Why?" Mendes was stunned, "Are you going to continue to be a manager at Manchester City?" ”

"Nope." Lin Sen shook his head, "I've already submitted my resignation to Carl, and he has approved it. I'm going to leave next season. ”

"Then ......" Mendes looked at Lin Sen with a puzzled look.

"To put it simply, it's not very appropriate." Lin Sen shrugged his shoulders and said.

"Not quite right?" Mendes smiled wryly, "It's not like you, Lin. ”

"There's always something you can't avoid." Linson said, "Just like you, Jorge, do you dare to run Cristiano Ronaldo to Manchester City? ”

"If you can, why not?" Mendes said confidently, but as soon as he finished speaking, even he himself thought it was too ridiculous, and he couldn't help laughing.

"I'm not the only candidate for Real Madrid." Lin Sen smiled and said, "Who else?" Klopp? Or rather, Zidane? ”

"Trust me, you're the number one candidate." Mendes did not deny Linson's statement, but said, "Until you give an answer, I believe Real Madrid will not ......"

At this point, Mendes' voice suddenly stopped, because a possibility suddenly flashed through his mind, and then the more he thought about it, the more he felt that something was wrong.

So, he immediately sat up straight, stared at Lin Sen with a very strange gaze, and then asked in a somewhat uncertain tone, "I said, you don't want to...... Deliberately dragging Real Madrid, right? ”――

Wembley Stadium on 23 May.

As a League Two team, there are not many opportunities to play in one of England's biggest stadiums, the FA Cup and League Cup are certainly one of the opportunities, but it is too slim, in addition to these two competitions, there is another opportunity for League Two teams to come to this stadium, and that is the promotion play-off final.

Last season, Burton suffered a 1-0 defeat to Fleetwood in League One, and this season, they have been promoted straight out of League Two as champions, with Cambridge United and Southend United coming to the stadium with two teams.

Unlike the last time he needed to wear sunglasses to appear in Abbe Stadium in a low-key manner, this time, Lin Sen appeared in the stands very naturally, without any regard for other people's eyes. The reason why he is here today is very simple, purely because the young man standing on the side of the pitch at this time was his assistant.

Not only Lin Sen, but Boya and Cinderella also appeared in the stands.

BBC Channel 5, which broadcast the game live, did not arrange for well-known commentators such as Martin Taylor to comment on the game, but this does not mean that other commentators will let go of this figure in the stands," ...... In the stands, we saw Lin's figure, and it seems that Cambridge United have an extra supporter in this game, hoping that he can bring good luck to Don. ”

Tang Hua in the stadium naturally knew that Lin Sen appeared in the stands in this game, there are not many games that can be broadcast live across the country, excluding the cup matches that are stained with the light of big teams, this game may be the only one.

Tang Hua had already explained everything he thought should be explained at this time, and then stood on the sidelines with a little uneasiness, waiting for the end of the series of procedures before the game and the start of the game.

Lin Sen's gaze in the stands was on Tang Hua most of the time, and sometimes he would turn to another figure named Phil Brown who was standing not far from Tang Hua.

As the opponent of this game, he used to be the assistant of a well-known coach, which should be the biggest common denominator between Phil Brown and Tang Hua. Phil Brown, who had assisted Sam Allardyce, had an uneventful start to his coaching career, and after a three-year stint as an assistant coach at Blackpool, he was given the opportunity to assist Sam Allardyce and soon took a turning point in his coaching career: just one season as derby manager, he received an offer from Hull City to lead them to the Championship and then a play-off win over Bristol City the following season to help the team achieve historic promotion to the Premier League. In his first Premier League season, Phil Brown did an equally good job, even winning the Premier League Manager of the Month for September that season.

If the story could have continued in this way, perhaps Phil Brown could have become a good homegrown coach in England, however, the story did not go that way, and after having to leave Hull City due to poor results, Brown's club level dropped year by year, first Preston in the Championship and then in League Two......

Of course, even with such a down-and-out Brown, Tang Hua still did not laugh at the other party's qualifications and rights.

Coaching is not a particularly first-come, first-served profession, but the difference between those who have seen more and those who have seen less is still clear.

In Lin Sen's eyes, although Tang Hua's mood at this time was not too nervous, he still showed a trace of uneasiness that was difficult to hide, while Phil Brown on the other side always remained calm.

In terms of importance, this game is equal for both sides, and unequal is the ability of both sides to withstand this game. It was the first final of Tang Hua's managerial career, but for Phil Brown, no matter how important, it was still a League Two play-off.

Brown's side quickly took the initiative after the start of the game, of course, this does not mean that Southend United are stronger than Cambridge United, simply because of the different styles of play between the two sides, Southend United is not an attacking team, but compared to Cambridge United, their style of play is still much more open. One team attacking, one team defending, obviously that will be the tone of this game.

"Lin, do you think Tang can win today?" Just as Lin Sen set his eyes on the field, a slightly nervous voice came from next to him.
