Chapter 60: The Fuse

Damn it.

It's not Russ Bender, who is scolding the goal, even if Linson is disappointed, he is not enough to be angry with a young man.

The young man was able to score a goal, which helped him build confidence a lot, which is not bad, as for the ball that went into the door of his old club, Lin Sen can only complain that his life is not good, so, after thinking about it for a while, he can only sigh. What my life is up to me, and what is endless fun with the sky, at this time, all disappear.

Now Lin Sen can only point at God and scold angrily: Thief, you TM cheating!

Then, Lin Sen still had to clean up the mess.

After Lars Bender's goal, the ruined Manchester City launched a general attack in the final minutes, and McLeish, who was almost knocked out by the pie falling from the sky, did not really faint, and I don't know if it was intentional, he replaced their only striker, Benitez, with another player on loan from Manchester City, Sven Bender, to set up a turtle shell formation that Linson is familiar with.

After working the pitch for more than 80 minutes, he only did it once when God was not paying attention, and in the last eight minutes, under God's close watch, Manchester City was powerless.

It's another damn draw.

"A good game."

After the referee blew the whistle at the end of the game, McLeash took the initiative to come over and shake hands with Lin Sen, looking at the other party's expression of winning the jackpot, Lin Sen's mood was even worse, but he also knew that what the other party said was not necessarily to sarcastically mock himself, except for the score, no matter from which point of view, this game was not only good, but also exciting.

However, it is not good to be in a bad mood, and it is difficult for Lin Sen to be dissatisfied with the performance of the players. Compared with the last game, although Manchester City did not shoot as many times in the previous game, the offensive organization was more patient and played more aggressively, and the offensive players' table xiàn According to the post-match media comments, there are not eight points but also seven points, as for the goal conceded, it is really not to blame the defenders, even if it is Given, it can only be said that it was an accident.

Back to the locker room. Lin Sen comforted the lost team members, and then he went to the press conference. And the feelings that were suppressed in the locker room, Lin Sen did not intend to suppress it at the press conference, so when a reporter once again mentioned Robinho, who did not play a minute in this game, Lin Sen, who has always been very good at talking in the eyes of the British media, finally went crazy.

"Robinho? I've answered this question too many times. If there is a player who doesn't play, it's a reason why he can't play. Now the problem is that you have a problem when he plays, you still have a problem when he doesn't play, anyway you have a problem. I don't know how interested you are in repeating the same question over and over again, but I'm sorry, I'm a coach, not a babysitter. So. From now on, until the end of the season, I will not answer a single question about Robinho. You can keep asking, but don't expect me to say another word. That's all for me. I'm sorry I still have something. ”

With that, Lin Sen stood up and prepared to leave, and the reporters present looked at each other. At this time, another reporter stood up and asked.

"Mr. Coach, this is City's fourth draw of the season, is there anything you would like to say about that?"

This is another question of which pot not to open and which pot to mention, but Lin Sen, who had just nodded politely to McLeish, still stopped, he turned his head, and didn't ask who asked the question just now, just leaned down and said a word into the microphone, and then walked away.

In the next game, we will definitely win. It's as simple as that.

Four consecutive draws.

Manchester City are annoyed.

Lin Sen was also annoyed.

However, back in Manchester, one man ran into the muzzle of the annoying Linson, and the other party apparently took the initiative to hit his gun, and on the day of the Manchester City team's resumption of training, Robinho, who missed the game against Birmingham, was late for training.

If the previous failure to celebrate a goal in the game was a silent demonstration, this time it is undoubtedly a blatant provocation.

Perhaps in the eyes of many people, this is Lin Sen's cold treatment of Robinho, and finally forced the other party to make this "decision". But at least in the eyes of Robinho's agent Ribeiro, this is not a bad idea, and he believes that a small delay by Robinho can create a huge problem for Lin Sen.

Being late is always a big or small thing, as there are so many small surprises that can explain being late.

The last time Adriano was late, Linsen's handling of him was originally to train alone, but then the Sun exposed a photo of the Brazilian, which sent Linsen to the reserves. So, what about this time?

In Ribeiro's view, Robinho is not Ade, Ade was introduced by Manchester City for free, while Robinho was Manchester City's target last summer, and the status of the two in the eyes of Manchester City Club is completely impossible to compare. Therefore, it is clear that the two people are treated differently. And, instigating Robinho to make such a decision, Ribeiro has a deeper meaning.

That is, everyone knows why Ade is late, but not many people know about Robinho's connection to this matter, except for a few people, he Ribeiro is of course one of them, and in addition, the two parties and Lin Sen.

If you Lin Sen chooses to turn a blind eye to Robinho this time, it will inevitably chill Adriano's heart. And if you Lin Sen chooses to treat everyone equally, how should you explain to the outside world? The outside world doesn't know what's going on. Therefore, in this matter, either you Lin Sen can only swallow your anger, or you are ready to fight chickens and eggs.

Ribeiro's abacus crackled, but there was only one thing he revealed, and that was Lin Sen's mood.

Previously, Manchester City won six consecutive league games, and the three-line shì was very good, and Lin Sen at that time could not tolerate Adriano's indulgence, and now, Lin Sen, who was almost sad for the team, was even more in no mood to continue to accompany Ribeiro to continue to play this "palace scheming", Ribeiro did not expect that Lin Sen would not only not swallow his anger, but he was not afraid of the so-called chicken and egg beating.

On the day Robinho arrived late, Linson told the Brazilian to train alone, and then was kicked out of the squad for the Europa League away game against Austria Vienna that afternoon.

Ribeiro certainly couldn't just rest on his laurels. Just one day later, on the same day that Manchester City departed for Austria. Ribeiro, who was interviewed by The Sun, publicly bombarded Linson for a lack of respect for Robinho, and even some sarcasm about Linsen personally, almost describing Linsen as an arrogant and ignorant megalomaniac.

And at this point, there is no room for manoeuvre.

On the same day, Manchester City headquarters, conference room.

Less than three hours after reports of Ribeiro's public bombardment of Linsson came out, Mubarak urgently convened an informal meeting with a small number of participants, but basically all of the city's top brass in power. And the topic is Robinho.

Lin Sen was right, in this matter, it is impossible for the club to remain neutral.

The disharmony of the coach is never new for any professional team. In this kind of thing, there are those who support the "will" and those who support the "handsome", and it is right to support which side to support. There is no one standard answer, and while it often seems that supporting the manager is the right thing to do, it is not uncommon for the manager to fall victim when that player is an important player in the team. But anyway. Neutrality is impossible, because the neutrality of the club is simply impossible to solve the problem and ultimately suffer. Only teams.

In this regard, the typical case is that Inter Milan dealt with the conflict between Cooper and Ronaldo, and Moratti chose Cooper at that time. Then Ronaldo joined Real Madrid, but Cooper didn't stay at Inter for long, and he only led the team to play six rounds in the new season before leaving the class, at this time it is not possible to talk about who is right and who is wrong, but undoubtedly the most hurt is Inter itself. This would also explain why Mubarak takes this matter so seriously.

As in every meeting, arguments are inevitable. Regarding the matter of Lin Sen and Robinho, the participants are still divided, there are supporters on both sides, and both sides have reasons, those who support Robinho think that the Brazilian spent 40 million on the club, which is far more important than the "cheap" Lin Lin, while those who support Lin Sen think that Lin Sen's team has achieved excellent results and has no reason to be abandoned at this time......

Mubarak, who sat in the center, had a calm expression, and after listening for a long time, he turned his gaze to Gary Cook, who should have spoken most but never spoke, so it was he who had dealt with the matter before.

"Gary?" Mubarak directly named, "You have always dealt with this matter, what do you think?" ”

"There are reasons on both sides." Gary Cook, who was named, raised his head, sorted out his thoughts, and tried to be as concise as possible, "I think the source of this matter lies in a problem of positioning. I met with both sides to talk about it, and it was far from that at the time. Robinho wants his position in the team to be more secure, but Linson doesn't think he has a problem with the way he uses him. As for Robinho's tardiness this time, it was just a fuse......"

When speaking, Cook still maintained his habit, and his eyes did not deliberately stay in any direction, but in fact, this time the corner of his eye had been paying attention to Mubarak's reaction, and sure enough, when he deliberately paused, he noticed that Mubarak's brows were slightly furrowed, and he suddenly smiled bitterly in his heart, knowing that his view of harmony was not what the other party wanted to hear at all, so he took a slight breath and made a decision in his heart.

"Overall, I'm still inclined to support Lin in this matter. Although Robinho is an important investment for the club and his doubts are understandable, a healthy team should not have players who can override the manager, and a healthy club should not question its manager because of an agent's statement, it has nothing to do with who is right and who is wrong, it is just a matter of principle. ”

……

Gary Cook finished speaking, and the moment his back touched his chair, he muttered to himself.

You owe me a favor, Mr. Coach. (To be continued......)
