(Ask for a commuter pass, recommended ticket)

Mondonico's words spread throughout the world in newspapers and television images, and of course to the ears of the Florentine higher-ups.

The Florentine management was very dissatisfied with this defeat of Florence.

Fiorentina were the only team to lose in the top five, and there was no change in the top five since this game, but Fiorentina are 13 points off the top of the table, just one point above Inter Milan and three points above fifth-placed Udinese.

This means that the league title race is completely out of play, and if Fiorentina lose their next game, they could fall to fifth.

Dissatisfied is dissatisfied, the Fiorentina management really didn't dare to make up their minds to change the coach, now it is still the top three in Fiorentina, the promoted horse hits this name, if the head coach is fired, I'm afraid no coach dares to come to Florence to coach, how much pressure does it have to be, even if it is the superstar Real Madrid, Barcelona, Milan, Juventus and other giants dare not say that they must win the championship every season.

But Mondonico's words made the management of Florence very angry, and pushed the contradiction between the coach and the fans directly to the club, which is really irresponsible.

Fiorentina general manager Lukesi responded to Mondonico that night, saying, "I think it was a hasty statement he made after the game, and a coach with years of professional experience should adapt to the boos from the fans." The club didn't have any problem with him, the team had problems but it was improving. There's always going to be pressure, just hope he doesn't have too many unnecessary thoughts and doesn't complain too much, which doesn't do the club, the players, the fans or Mondo himself. “

Fiorentina general manager Lu Casei's words are full of needles and implied threats, which actually means, Mondonico, you don't complain anymore, if you complain again, you will be fired.

But Mondonico is a sensitive and self-respecting old man, he heard reporters at the press conference that President de la Valle contacted Prandelli and Zaccheroni when he was in office, which hurt his self-esteem a lot, and at the same time he also felt very wronged, he brought such a promotion horse to his current position, is it easy for him? The club is so ungrateful and wants to replace him at this time.

When Mondonico saw Lu's televised speech, he immediately picked up his mobile phone and called Lukei

"Lukecy, what do you mean by that, is that what I want to complain about? It's because your behavior is too unkind, and you are not satisfied with such a result, do you really want to win the championship? You don't look at what kind of team you gave me, there are a few teams in the history of promoted teams that can win the championship, and it is happy to say that Fiorentina have set their goals in the top four too high, and they should be happy to get a place in the UEFA Cup. ”

In the face of Mondonico's anger, Lu Casey was speechless, he could only say: "Mondo, calm down, let's talk about it when we meet tomorrow." ”

Mondonico said: "No, I'll say it now, you tell Monsieur de la Valle, of course I'm an old man who doesn't fall into his eyes, you let him find a coach who can lead Fiorentina to the championship." ”

Lu Kaixi's face turned cold, and he said, "Mondo, are you resigning?" If so, the club can only take appropriate countermeasures. ”

Mondonico also seemed to feel that he was talking too much, and the manager on the other end of the phone, not his friends and subordinates, defended: "It's not that I want to resign, it's that you want to fire the meritorious coach." ”

Meritorious coach Lu Casey said: "Okay, Mondo, you calm down, let's meet tomorrow and talk about it." ”

"Okay, we'll talk about it tomorrow."

"Well, Mondo, you can rest in peace, don't think about it. The club has your back. ”

Lucasey hung up the phone, walked around his office a few times, and finally decided to tell De La Valle what Mondonico had said on the phone.

"Hey, Manager Lukey, do you have something? Call me so late. ”

"Oh, it's not a big deal, it's like this...... Lucasey repeated to De La Valle what Mondonico had told him on the phone. Mondonico is a bit arrogant, and this achievement is entirely due to him? Other promoted horses dare not target the top four, but our reinforcements are in the top four in Serie A. ”

"What? Mondo actually said that, he disappointed me so much, attacked the fans, complained about the club, did not encourage the players at this time, but threatened to resign, has he lived to be a dog for 58 years? If he wants to resign, yes, is it, can't Fiorentina still have no coach? ”

De La Valle was very angry, Mondonico's speech at today's press conference has made him a little unhappy, and now Mondonico actually complained to Lu Casey like this, and attributed Florence's record today to his own head, which made De La Valle even more unacceptable, in De La Valle's heart, he is the first contributor to the rise of Florence, Mondonico ranks third at most, and the second is Chen Yu, and Chen Yu is still signed by him.

"Yes, we gave him enough leniency, enough power, and it's a shame that he said that, Chairman, what do you say we should do?"

Lu Casey chimed in.

De La Valle calmed down and said: "Look at what Mondonico means, if he apologizes, even if he waits for the end of this season, he has also made a great contribution to Fiorentina after all, if he doesn't apologize and continues to complain, then it's fired, the results are already like this, there is no hope of winning the championship, the Champions League seat is in jeopardy, it is better to change to a new coach to try the knife." ”

"Yes, I understand, I will see the chairman again, and I won't disturb your rest."

"See you soon."

The next morning, more than 1,000 fans came to the training base in Fiorentina, which is a rare phenomenon in recent times, and with the team's sluggish results, the enthusiasm of the fans also decreased, and the training base was mainly foreign fans, mainly on Saturday and Sunday.

"Mondonico out of class"

These fans pulled up a big banner, they were all extreme fans of Florence, Mondonico was infuriated by yesterday's words, they were here to demonstrate today.

There are also more than a dozen reporters at the base, which is also a rare phenomenon.

These journalists are the kind of people who have long noses and a keen sense of smell, and they have a premonition from the smell of gunpowder in Mondonico's words yesterday that something might happen today.

At half past nine, Mondonico arrived, and when he saw the banners pulled out by the fans, Mondonico's anger came up again, originally he didn't want to say anything today, he was going to play Juventus on the weekend, he had to prepare well for this game, and he couldn't fall into the quagmire of losing streak. Now he couldn't help it anymore, when his Audi was stopped by a reporter at the door and wanted to interview him, Mondonico didn't get out of the car, rolled down the window, and said: "I know what you want to hear, but please go away, there is no news you want here, if attacking fans is news, then I will say it again, yesterday was the first time I expressed my dissatisfaction with the fans, today is the second time, I don't know how many fans shouted at me to get out of class, but I want to say that Fiorentina does not welcome such fans, Originally, I thought that fans should be respected, but in the past two days, I have learned that sometimes fans are also the destroyers of the sport, and I think the club should regulate the behavior of fans and ban some fans from watching football. ”

After Mondonico finished speaking, he closed the car window and drove to the parking lot, but Mondonico's brief speech was broadcast live on TV, and was once again seen by fans all over the world, which also caused great dissatisfaction among Florentine fans.

De La Valle was originally going to meet with Mondonico at noon to exchange opinions, he was not ready enough to fire Mondonico now, in addition to worrying about Mondonico's results, the main thing was that Prandelli did not get it, the young coach did not want to take over Fiorentina at this time, these players are not what Prandelli wants, the team's morale is low, and it is difficult for the magician to boost the morale of the players, and after the change of coach, there may be many main forces who will be resistant, and the results are difficult to guarantee, Wouldn't it be a headache to take over at this time, it is better to end this season and have enough time to build your own team.

But after reading Mondonico's speech after he came to the training base, De La Valle was furious and immediately called Lucasey and said: "Call Mondonico over and tell him to stop this stupid remark immediately." ”

Mondonico, who was training with his players, was called to the chairman's office by Lukei.

'Mondo, we hear you, we value your opinion, we are trying to make the public, the fans aware of the manager's difficulties, but until then, you have to stop complaining to the fans, it will have a very bad impact.

De La Valle did not ask Mondonico to sit down, but went straight to the point and expressed his great dissatisfaction with Mondonico's speech today.

Mondonico was also full of grievances.

"Chairman, our recent record is not good enough, but I think this is due to many reasons, as a promoted horse, not only I have no experience, these players also have no, even if it is the chairman, I am afraid I can't imagine how difficult Serie A is, the goal of winning the championship is a bit big, we are getting better now, I think there is no problem with the Champions League seat, the fans are too greedy, we are not satisfied with our results now, I think there are few coaches and teams in the world that can satisfy them."

De La Valle was a little angry and said: "Mondo, our job is to satisfy the fans, if we can't satisfy the fans, then we haven't done our job well. Maybe some fans are extreme, but their demanding requirements are the motivation for us to keep moving forward and keep perfecting, and the fans will never recognize you. Coaches have to be patient, and if you can't win, getting boos is a sure thing, and that's part of coaching's job. ”

De La Valle was tactful, but the meaning was clear, he was completely on the side of the fans, thinking that Mondonico was not doing the right thing.

Mondonico, who had been under great pressure before, couldn't bear it any longer, he exhaled deeply, and said: "Mr. de la Valle, I am still a little far from the standard of coaching you demand, or you should be smart." ”
