Silent night. ↖

The wife was on the side, but Lin Sen couldn't sleep.

The conversation with Boya eventually turned into a thunderbolt. But after the charm, the decisions that should be made still have to be made.

Linsen's departure from Manchester City seemed sudden to many, but it was never a sudden decision for Linsen himself, and he knew very well what he had made and the impact it would have.

As early as when Linson first joined Manchester City, he had a seemingly general but actually very clear plan for his coaching career in Manchester City, of course, this plan may seem a little self-conscious at that time, because everyone knows what Manchester City wants, to become the head coach of Manchester City, you should be more worried about "resignation", rather than "resignation". But the truth is that Linson eventually became Manchester City's meritorious coach, and then, according to his own plan, he retired bravely.

As for the reason for leaving, Lin Sen announced that the reason was that he wanted to rest for a while. But in reality, what he said to Mubarak was something else.

Lin Sen has forgotten which head coach once said a word, he has forgotten the original words, but he deeply believes the meaning of the words, that is, whether it is for the head coach or for the team, too long cooperation is not necessarily a good thing for both parties. This sentence is undoubtedly unconvincing in front of a coach like Alex Ferguson, but you must know that the times are different, not to mention that with the more commercialization of football, the authoritarian coaching model has been gradually eliminated, even if you take a step back, a coach like Ferguson, which club dares to say that it will be able to find it?

At this point, it is rare for Linson and Pep Guardiola, who seem to be natural rivals on the sidelines, to have the same views and choices. Pep Guardiola, who was in Barcelona a few years ago, left behind the team he built and is now the head coach of Bayern Munich, and Linson, why not?

Interestingly, the two even chose to say the same thing when they even left.

Physically and mentally exhausted. I want to take a break.

This statement is not entirely an excuse, there are no victories and honors in the world in vain, every game, except for the players' expressions on the field, which coach is really as Lin Sen originally pursued: standing on the sidelines leisurely, you can laugh and watch the opponent disappear? Even when he was at his most proud, Lin Sen didn't feel how easy he was.

Of course, this is definitely not the real reason. The real reason, to put it bluntly, is that no one can afford to fail.

At this point. Lin Sen didn't dare to say how high he was, saying that he regarded his reputation as a floating cloud, anyway, he definitely didn't want him to leave Manchester City one day, not to mention that this was impossible, because Lin Sen was very sure that the reason why Guardiola would leave Barcelona was not without this reason. Manchester City and Barcelona are not comparable to each other, but there is one thing that is the same for Linson and Pep Guardiola.

That is, they are used to winning.

This would have been a good thing, but the problem is. Fans are also used to them winning. This creates a situation where if one day they lose, it's the end of the world.

In the season that Guardiola left, Barcelona lost twice. One was a league defeat to Real Madrid, the other was an away defeat to Chelsea in the Champions League, and two defeats, even though Barcelona still won the Copa del Rey that season. But it still caused Guardiola to encounter an unprecedented crisis. Lin Sen has also encountered such a crisis, and more than once. The most dangerous of these came twice, once at the beginning of his second season in charge when the league was poor. At that time, Linson had just brought three titles to Manchester City, which had been absent from the championship for a long time, but even so, in the end, it still caused trouble on the board. The other is even more dangerous, in the third season, Manchester City, who had a smooth sailing league, lost 0-4 to city rivals Manchester United in the League Cup final.

Therefore, it is friends who can share hardships but do not seek common prosperity, and those who can share prosperity but cannot share hardships are football.

It is because of this that after the end of his third season at Manchester City, Linson made a decision, one that concerns him alone.

Lin Sen is no longer alone, whether in life or at work.

He has his own coaching team, which means that if he leaves, he will not be the only one who will leave. At the end of that season, Linson announced his decision to leave Manchester City for as little as three years or as little as a year. To his relief, although there was inevitably some surprise, the members, including Jiwen, had no objection to Lin Sen's decision.

Then, with a fruitful season, Linsen's decision became a reality, and then what happened next is no secret.

And after Lin Sen left, because he didn't know his return date, Lin Sen didn't plan to let other people just wait for him, but it was also a young team, Tang Hua chose to continue to study and recharge after Lin Sen left the football world temporarily, Dina went home to see the children, and Jiwen, he continued to stay in Manchester City as a player, while starting to study coaching courses like Tang Hua, as for Ariel, she is the most "unprofessional" one, because she, like Lin Sen, spends her time on travel, Even in Brazil, Lin Sen met her once.

Therefore, in this case, if Lin Sen returns to coaching, in fact, except for Given, everyone else can basically be in place immediately.

The problem lies with Lin Sen himself, because he is not sure that now is the best time to return.

It's easy to hang the crown and leave, but how simple is the return of the king? One year is enough time to give birth to a lot of things.

For example, Manchester City's home stadium City Stadium is no longer called City Stadium, but Etihad Stadium, and now, Manchester City's training base is no longer adjacent to Manchester United, but moved to a location near the Etihad Stadium, a new training base that started in 2011 and cost up to 200 million pounds, including 17 training grounds and a stadium that can accommodate 7,000 fans as the home of the youth team.

Lin Sen's departure did not stop Manchester City from advancing, and Manchester City's grand plan that Lin Sen is familiar with is still being carried out in an orderly manner.

As for the league, among the major British giants, Manchester City, with Linsen's "legacy", Pellegrini although not satisfactory in Europe, but took over the first season of the league but still won the championship, and among the several giants who have always maintained pressure on Manchester City is Mourinho's return to Chelsea, last season, they did not withdraw from the championship until the last round, the biggest contrast should be Manchester United and Liverpool, a pair of red enemies, the two teams that played the role of ice and fire in previous seasons still play this role, On the flip side, last season, Brendan Rodgers' Reds Liverpool were the closest they came to winning the title in recent years, while Manchester United, who lost Alex Ferguson, suffered one of their worst seasons. As for Arsenal, the bigger change for them is in the transfer market than their record, because Arsene Wenger is finally willing to spend money...... In addition to a few traditional giants, Tottenham Hotspur, who were originally title contenders, still maintain their strength, while the emerging power Southampton was the biggest surprise in England last season.

To put it mildly, the current English shape is more complex than it was a year ago. Of course, complexity is complexity, and if Lin Sen returns to the UK, he doesn't have to be afraid of being too lonely. Because although there is one less Ferguson, there is also one more Mourinho.

Of course, judging from the two choices that Lin Sen just got, Lin Sen actually does not have a return in the true sense of the word.

Ferguson's implication is probably a fatal temptation for any manager. Although Ferguson has retired from Manchester United, he still has a significant influence on the Manchester United board, which comes from his achievements for the club and his unrivalled position in the hearts of Manchester United fans.

Of course, the most crucial thing is that replacing Alex Ferguson as Manchester United manager was originally a difficult job, but now, for the replacement, United are almost a blank slate, thanks of course, thanks to David Moyes.

Lin Sen would also be tempted by such an opportunity, but he couldn't agree.

Because he used to be the manager of Manchester City.

Four years is not a long time, but it is not short, it is enough to imprint a manager with a deep imprint, although the head coach is different from the players, and there is not so much betrayal in defecting to the sworn enemy, but Lin Sen still feels that the past is not the level in his heart after all. Boya was right before, Figo joined Real Madrid from Barcelona, and it did not prevent him from becoming the World Footballer of the Year, but without that experience, who can be sure that we will not see a more perfect World Footballer of the Year?

Therefore, let alone going to Manchester United, even other English clubs that have no mortal rivalry with Manchester City will only make Lin Sen feel awkward, and awkward things, even if they are tempting, Lin Sen would rather not do them.

Compared to Ferguson, Mubarak's mention is what Lin Sen really has to consider.

Similarly, as Boya said, Lin Sen does not deny that Mubarak's motives are impure, but this does not change the essence of his tiyì. In four seasons, Linsen has brought too many things to Manchester City, some things are obvious, some things are destined to be known only by a few people, compared to the world's well-known achievements on the field, Linsen's transfer operation ability is far more surprising than the world knows.

And this qiē, Mubarak is the clearest one, otherwise, even if Lin Sen is a meritorious coach, work is work, as the president of the club, how could he let Lin Sen take over such an important position?

And for Lin Sen, he was originally an "amateur coach", a football manager? This is a new challenge.

But as with why you can't go to Manchester United, instead of asking why you don't continue to be a coach, why say no to this challenge? (To be continued!)
