Chapter XXVII
After the game with Huelva, Lin Sen still couldn't meet with Cinderella and the others after all, because he really couldn't get out, and Karpin's dead face was blocked at the door of the locker room on time as soon as the game ended, making the players think that Lin Sen owed Karpin how much money he didn't pay back. It's just that compared to the previous game, the post-match press conference for this game was actually just a routine for Linson. There are very few reporters, clichéd problems, and the popular Cheng dù of Muñoz, who is responsible for relegation, is much higher than Lin Sen. By the time Lin Sen had dealt with the matter thoroughly, Cinderella and the others had even finished dinner.
Good game. The people are not bad, either. I'll see you next time.
Cinderella's text message gave Lin Sen a little comfort, the first sentence he automatically ignored, the second sentence made him a little proud, and the third sentence he didn't take to heart.
That's good.
Having declined Aguero's invitation to visit his home, Lin Sen now just wanted to relax his brain.
The European football league schedule is always very tight, except for the national team match day, the professional team is basically a week, sometimes encountering other events, and even two games a week, at this time, the players have to withstand the test of physical fitness, and for the coach, the test is the head. Last week's week at Atletico Madrid, for example, was played on Saturday, training on Sunday, rested on Monday, and the next four days from Tuesday to Friday were all about preparing for the next match. The players can take a break to restore their physical strength, but the coach does not have the word "recovery" to speak of. So you can imagine how intense it can be when there are two races a week. That's why all coaches, even though they're used to the concept of two games a week, still complain at every turn, and sometimes worrying about the fitness of their players is just an excuse to vent.
From the team doctor to the head coach, Lin Sen felt pain and happiness.
And the relaxation method Lin Sen chose was to throw himself directly into the bed and sleep regardless of it.
----------
Winning Huelva, for Linsen, from losing to not losing to winning, in just a few weeks, in a word, he is gradually entering the role. As for the media, Atletico Madrid won, and the ranking has risen to tenth place, which is still not up and down. This is obviously no more interesting than the question of whether Real Madrid will be able to win the title a few rounds earlier.
Madrid-based Spanish newspapers Marca and Ace both gave the front page to Real Madrid, who beat Osasuna away at home, and are now seven points ahead of second-placed Villarreal, who will defend their title and win this season's La Liga title two rounds ahead of schedule as long as they don't lose in the next round.
At this time, the neutral independent newspaper once again played the role of a conscientious media in the eyes of Atletico Madrid fans, and the deputy editor of the newspaper, Rode, not only carefully analyzed how many points Atletico Madrid still needed to secure qualification for the International Toto Cup, but also highlighted Linson's substitution in the last game.
"For a lot of people, Linson's substitution in this game was obviously nothing new. The substitution time was 88 minutes, and the background of the substitution was 2:0 to seal the victory, a standard cut-off substitution. However, it was this substitution that won one of the warmest applause in the game that could not even be compared to the goal, which was in stark contrast to the change that Linsen booed when he first took charge, and may also reflect the change in Linsen's attitude in the minds of Atletico fans.
Atletico Madrid has been abandoned by fans this season, ostensibly because of that series of defeats, but in fact, it is not so much that fans have lost hope. And Lin Sen's substitution gave exactly the most naked hope.
The number one star who has returned, Sergio Aguero, plus two young talents from the Atletico Academy who made their debuts!
Direct! Thirst! Calderón's applause proves a qiē.
Whether Lin Sen's move is intentional or not, you must admit that his hand is beautiful! ”
yes, it's beautiful.
Even Cerezo had to admit it.
Reading the newspaper of the day, which was a daily compulsory lesson for Cerezo, was formed when Cerezo was not even a filmmaker, and after taking ownership of Atletico, he read more and more newspapers, and of course, became more and more critical. Just like today's newspapers, he chose this report from the Independent to peruse it. It's not just because it mentions Atletico, it's because it does write about something that matters to itself.
As one of the most famous Spanish filmmakers who have produced many international credits, the club's image has always been one of Cerezo's most important factors. The chatter of the former president Hill Sr. makes Atletico seem to have a tone of protest all the time, which is undeniably a lot of sympathy for the club, but in Cerezo's view, protest and sympathy are in themselves a kind of petty family. A successful club can make the struggle a thing of the past, but it must not be the future. After becoming the owner, Cerezo began to rectify Atletico Madrid in all aspects, and the chaos of black signings and black bonuses must of course be eliminated, and Atletico Madrid needs to re-establish its image. Image, to put it bluntly, is face. Atletico Madrid, which has always lived in the shadow of Real Madrid since its establishment, must first do not let the battle of wills become the dominant factor restricting itself. Just like a person, first of all, you have to look at yourself as an equal, straighten your back, and look directly at your opponent, instead of crouching down as soon as you meet and shouting why should I look up at you. As everyone knows, it's not that other people's eyes are too high, it's just that your own eyes are too low.
After straightening your waist, if you want to win the respect of others, you still have to rely on strength after all. Atletico Madrid have invested $80 million this season, and the media always add a "claim" to this investment to show ridicule, but for Cerezo, the figure is uncompromising. Eighty million is eighty million, and one is not a lot. Next, with his idea of making a movie, that is, big-name stars are invited, and they are waiting for the blockbuster to be released. But unfortunately, it was a bad movie, and the box office was a mess. Cerezo may not be very proficient in football, but he is a businessman, at least his value is not deceiving, and Atletico Madrid have been terrible this season, but the value of the man he bought has not fluctuated much. Then, since there is no problem with the actors, it is naturally the relationship between the directors.
Aguirre is a good coach. Cerezo has always thought so, so he's patient. Otherwise, this season's record, if it were replaced by the old Hill, Aguirre would have become a former former head coach. However, Aguirre took the burden. Therefore, Lin Sen's appointment cannot but be said to be a coincidence.
Cerezo was even prepared for the worst, expecting a halfway director to make a good movie was a luxury, let alone a sequel to a bad movie. But, who would have thought that this little director would actually give him a little surprise.
yes, little surprise.
It turns out that his own people can make the Atletico Madrid fans who give him a headache so generous and tolerant.
Cerezzo smiled, put down the newspaper, took off his glasses, closed his eyes and rubbed his temples, then put them back on a moment later, picked up the coaching materials that had appeared in front of him on his desk from time to time since Aguirre's resignation, and began to look at them slowly.
---------
Lin Sen was woken up by a rushing mobile phone ringtone, and he found that the better the song, the more it can't be used as a phone ringtone, otherwise, one day, you will lose a good song.
"I have bad news and good news, which would you like to hear first?"
Lin Sen felt that the sky had fallen, he forced his eyelids to look at the time on his phone, and immediately burst into tears, one o'clock in the morning. Auntie, I called at one o'clock in the morning to tell me that I had good news and bad news, and the whole person is not like this, what kind of trouble is this?
Say!
After half the weather, Lin Sen finally squeezed out one, he knew that in addition to adding to his own grievances, the meaningless roar was simply asking for trouble for Dina.
"Not angry?" Dina had already figured out how to deal with Lin Sen's complaints, but she didn't expect Lin Sen to be able to bear it.
"It's useful to be angry?"
"Occasionally useful."
"Then if you don't say it, don't say I'll hang up."
"Didn't you say which one to listen to first?"
“…… Is there a difference? ”
"Then I'll start with the bad news. The club are already approaching Mourinho. ”
Jose Mourinho? Lin Sen paused for a moment, touching Mourinho? Atletico approached Jose Mourinho?
Yes, the famous Jose Mourinho, who was forced to leave Chelsea at the beginning of this season, should be at home at this time, and the magic bird is in contact with Atletico Madrid? Lin Sen did not doubt the authenticity of this news, and of course, Lin Sen did not think that the magic bird would really fly to Calderón. Because he knows that it is not only Atletico Madrid who has thoughts about the magic bird at this time, but also a giant: Inter Milan, who is invincible in Serie A after the phone gate! Inter Milan stopped in the round of 16 for the Nth time this season, Mancini announced in disappointment that he was leaving, and then, Moratti, who was more disappointed than him, satisfied Mancini's desire to regret it quickly, regret is useless, Inter Milan needs a new coach, Moratti made one of the most successful decisions of changing coaches during his tenure at Inter, of course, that is a later story.
Lin Sen really doesn't think that Atletico can cause any problems for Inter Milan now. If memory serves, in a few days, photos of Moratti's private meeting with Magic Bird should be out. Adriano's rescue plan, which he had been obsessed with, was likely to be delayed, because he was so sure that Mourinho must have the same idea as himself.
Mourinho can't come to Atletico Madrid to compete with him for a job, which doesn't mean that Linson is at ease. It is likely that the Atletico management, who had been looking for a new head coach since he was not even the acting head coach of Atletico, had released a signal very clearly: the position of head coach of Atletico Madrid, the tender is pending.
This time, it's no longer a rumor.
