Manuel Luis Pellegrini, nicknamed "Chilean Engineer", comes from the fact that Manuel Pellegrini had a certificate in civil engineering, which means that he was actually a real engineer. It's just that for fans, the nickname Engineer is probably more to describe the solid coaching philosophy of the Chilean coach.

When it comes to inspirational figures in football, the translator-born Mourinho is often the obvious choice, and in recent years, there has been no more amazing rise in European football than the Magic Bird. But in fact, compared to the almost unreal magic of the magic bird, the success of Chilean Pellegrini is actually an inspirational drama that is closer to the public. Coming from South American football, Pellegrini got off to a rocky start and moved from club to club in Chile until San Lorenzo, who moved to Argentina to put his coaching career on track and quickly rose to the top of South American football, before moving to River Plate to help the old powerhouse return to the title. It was only in '04 that he came to Europe to coach the current Villarreal, and the "Yellow Submarine" began to become famous in European football......

That's what Pellegrini has done so far, but Linson knows that the Chilean will go to Real Madrid, Malaga and Manchester City in the Premier League in the future. Success, setback, prove yourself, and succeed again...... This is a real inspirational drama. Pellegrini is like an immortal bird, always reborn from the fire. It's just that this is not what Lin Sen admires most about Pellegrini, life is like this, fall, get up, fall again, get up again, unless you die, you have to get up and move on. Compared to this, Pellegrini has always been able to put down his body and build his own high-rise buildings brick by brick like a mason, which is especially valuable. You know, not all coaches can walk out of Real Madrid's high-rise buildings and are willing to bend down into the messy construction site to rebuild their ideals.

If given the choice, Linsen would not want to face Pellegrini at this time, at least not this game, although Linsen said in the pre-match press conference with great sincerity and connotation: For Atletico Madrid now, it doesn't matter who the opponent is, the important thing is that Atletico must overcome themselves first.

It's just that if you can choose an opponent, Lin Sen really hopes that his opponent will be a little more miserable, and it is better to be full of wounded soldiers and people will be moved. Since there is no choice, Atletico Madrid, who unfortunately became the side of the reservoir dogs, has to swim ashore desperately, and if anyone wants to fight, they will have to bite off a few bites of meat after fighting for their lives.

In the 0708 season, in the 34th round of La Liga, Villar Real hosted Atletico Madrid.

"If Atletico loses again in this game, then Atletico will have the longest losing streak in history; If Atletico concedes more than three goals in this game, then, without waiting for the end of the season, Atletico will set a record for the most goals conceded in a single season; If they can't score in this game this season, then, plus last season, they will also set a record for the fewest goals in 40 rounds; If ......" the commentator said a series of sentences generously, but the content of what he said made the faces of all the Atletico Madrid fans in the bar turn from red to black and white.

Even the most optimistic Atletico Madrid fans don't have much hope for this game, and the commentator says a lot of ifs, in fact, there is a great possibility that it will become a fact after the game, Villarreal, who are currently ranked second, even Barcelona has not been able to get much benefit from them this season, let alone the current Atletico Madrid team.

Before the game started, the melon seed shells on Barr's table were already tired, and the beer was poured down several times, Frank, who came over from the counter and sat with Barr, looked at him helplessly. Atletico Madrid this season, for Barr, is like a wife who has been picked up until only the last barrier remains, but he still has to watch with his eyes open.

"You did what happened the other day?" Frank took a sip of his beer, breaking the silence.

"Hmph." Ballen snorted, not knowing whether to acquiesce or disdain to answer.

"That's not good." Frank shook his head, "But we're fans, not hooligans. You are doing this to no avail. You know that's what Jimmy hates the most. ”

"You don't mention Jimmy. Aren't there football hooligans? Barr snorted again.

Frank couldn't laugh and cry all of a sudden, and even the football hooligans came out, and it seemed that his old friend had indeed made Atletico Madrid angry.

"He can only be blamed for being unlucky, coming to the wrong place at the wrong time, or in the wrong identity." Barr raised his eyes to look at the big screen hanging in mid-air, and said in a rough voice, "If he knows each other, he will get out of here early." ”

"Not really. The midfield changes in the last game are still very thoughtful. I don't think you can't see it. ”

"There's an idea, there's a fart. Do people listen to him? Even if he is allowed to destroy the opponent's wings, what about the attack? If you don't solve the offensive problem, can you win without scoring? ”

"That's going to have to be one step at a time."

"Atletico didn't have the time to let him take it one step at a time, and he didn't have time to take it one step at a time."

When two fans get together, especially when these two are old fans, the conversation can easily turn into a discussion, and the discussion can easily turn into an argument, arguing, not to mention Lin Sen, a halfway monk, even if Ferguson is there in person, in front of them, it is difficult to guarantee that he will not be deducted a ball blind hat.

"Let's make a bet." Annoyed by Barr's stubbornness, Frank finally got a little annoyed, and said angrily, "That's it." ”

"What, you still want to bet on that kid to win?" Barr sneered and said, "Okay, don't talk about winning, if you don't lose two goals, you win, just bet that the pair of Aguero's signed sneakers that you collected last time are just for my grandson, and I will train them to be my successor in the future." ”

"Good!" Frank took a sip of his beer, "Bet." If you lose, I don't want anything from you, as long as you quit AAA as Barr wants! ”

"It's a deal!"

"It's a deal!"

Princes and generals, rather have a kind.

When Pellegrini took the initiative to come over and shake hands with a polite smile, Lin Sen actually knew very well the shouts in the heart of the gentle person in front of him, Villar Real and Real Madrid at the top of the table The point gap is not too big, only five points, chasing five points in five rounds, it seems that Real Madrid can only be expected to make mistakes by himself, but it is by no means so big as to give up voluntarily.

Linsen and Pellegrini actually have one thing in common, that is, they both had a legitimate career before becoming coaches, which is probably why Pellegrini is so friendly to Linsen, and in this regard, perhaps no one knows Linsen's situation better than him. Lin Sen noticed that the color on the top of Pellegrini's head, yellow and not yellow, between yellow and green, was a color that had never been seen before. What does this color mean? Lin Sen was a little curious, between disappointment and excitement? Sympathy? Or pitiful?

I guess it's sympathy......

Villarreal's home stadium has a very romantic name, El Madrigal, which translates to love song, hence the fact that this stadium is also called the Stadium of Love Songs. This season's Villar Real is indeed worthy of this name, is there a better love song for fans? The team's proud record made the 22,000-seat stadium almost full in the second half of the season, and the fans used this as the most direct way to express their satisfaction with the team, but when Atletico Madrid appeared here as a challenger, there was no boos, and there was even a little applause.

This is what it means to treat Atletico Madrid as a point boy?

Lin Sen sneered in his heart.

Pellegrini is a believer in 442, and Villarreal is also one of the few teams in La Liga that uses this formation like Atletico Madrid, but unlike Atletico Madrid's decline, the 442 in the hands of the Chilean engineer is not trivial, regardless of the details such as the triangle pass, purely from the formation, the Chilean formation is not as dead as Atletico Madrid's, the same 442, the Chilean has done too much in the midfield, 3+1 middle barrier, 2+2 to increase the creation of zào force, 1+3. High Position Compression ...... After watching the video for several days, although he was a little tired, it was not for nothing, and Lin Sen was simply an eye-opener.

Looking at the opponent's starting lineup, Lin Sen subconsciously entered the scanning mode: five dark green, four light green, and two transparent. Two of the five dark green men are close to the gold level of color spread, one is former Arsenal French star Robert Pires, and the other is future Arsenal Spanish star Santiago Cazorla. One had clearly just faded from the golden body, and the other was marching towards it.

This is indeed a team that is on their way to the title, and what they lack, from Linson's point of view, is just a few players who can shine.

With the referee's whistle, the game opened.

It was Atletico Madrid who kicked off first, with Forlan and Luis Garcia just hitting the wall and kicking the ball back to their home side to start organising, and then the two quickly pushed forward.

You have a good plan, I have a wall ladder.

Looking up, the eleven people on the field are like eleven chess pieces entering the game, instantly unfolding, and they are scattered on the green chessboard. From standing on the sidelines in bright clothes until today, Lin Sen, who has always been calm in the face of a qiē, felt so excited for the first time.

Eleven people, eleven green tops, how spectacular!
