The smooth progress in the Champions League and the increase in the league lead did not let Benjamin get carried away.

"The next step is the knockout round, and if you are not careful, you will lose all your efforts.

So I'm going to be more demanding of my players. ”

In the Carabao Cup match on December 17, Tottenham played against Newcastle, who had little resistance, with a rotating lineup.

In the end, Benjamin's side won 3-0 at home.

Three days later, Tottenham continued to sit at home, beating Burnley 2-0 to win the 17th round of the league and continue to lead the way.

On Christmas Eve, after training, Benjamin worked overtime on the team until dark.

Because the game against Leicester City in two days is over, after playing the Foxes, they will have to play Manchester United and Chelsea in five consecutive days.

How to arrange the personnel is also a headache for Benjamin.

"Whew-"

With a sigh of relief, Benjamin cleaned up briefly, turned off the office lights and doors, and prepared to leave work.

At this time, there was no one left in the training base, and the corridors were all dark.

Even players such as Kane, who usually likes to practice, went home early to reunite with their families to celebrate the holiday.

"Hey, Ben, are you finally willing to leave your job? It's a holiday, so even if you don't care, you should take this opportunity to relax and take a break, right? ”

When Benjamin drove past the gate of the base, a big British fat man of at least two hundred pounds opened the automatic retractable door for him.

"Bob, aren't you blaming me for getting off work late?"

Benjamin laughed and teased Bob, who was in charge of the security at the training base.

Bob has been with Tottenham for more than a decade and is 100 per cent loyal and has great respect for Benjamin, the manager who led the team to win championships.

"That's not it, it's because of a serious and responsible manager like you that we can achieve such good results.

I just don't think you can work too hard, don't burn yourself out, Tottenham still need you to lead the way. ”

"Okay, I'm leaving, you should go home early to accompany your wife and children!"

Benjamin waved at Bob and kicked the gas pedal away.

Last Christmas, Benjamin was so busy with work that he didn't even call his parents.

Although their family does not have the habit of celebrating Christmas, there seems to be nothing wrong with taking advantage of the holiday dinner.

Benjamin went to pick her up at Leona's rented house first, and the two agreed to go to Benjamin's house together to "meet the parents".

As for why she doesn't live in the dormitory, it's not because the dormitory conditions in London are not good, and Leona's family with good family conditions naturally rented a house for her outside.

"Didn't you keep you waiting?"

Benjamin noticed that the girl's makeup was very delicate, and although he didn't understand it, he could see that it had taken a lot of painstaking work.

"Oh, it's okay, your work matters."

I have to say that as a head coach, the work is never-ending, and it may indeed affect the life of the individual.

Just like today, Charlie and Nancy made an excuse to celebrate Benjamin's one-year anniversary in charge of Tottenham, in fact, they wanted to take the opportunity to reunite with their son.

It's no wonder that some people always say that when they retire, they always say that it's time to return to their families and spend more time with their families.

"Is it really okay if you don't go back to Germany for Christmas?"

"Well, my dad must be busy with work, and I may not be able to see him a few times when I go back, and I don't want to make an appointment with his assistant.

My mom has a new family, and I don't want to bother them. ”

Benjamin's silent right hand grabbed the girl's cold left hand, and then silently turned up the temperature of the air conditioner in the car.

Soon Benjamin drove to their family's villa on the banks of the River Thames.

"Do uncles and aunts usually live here?"

"Of course not, this house is not as big as my villa, except for the location is a little better, with a view of the river, and there is no advantage in being close to the city center.

They only come here a few times a year, but today they probably took care of me so that I didn't have to travel too far to settle here. ”

"Oops, I forgot to buy a present!"

Leona was embarrassed to say that she was busy putting on makeup and dressing up before, and that she had remembered the gift before, and then it was diverted by something else.

"It's okay, you're the greatest gift!"

Benjamin and Leona clasped their fingers together and rang the doorbell.

"You're here! Everyone has been waiting for you for a long time!

This is Leona, please come in! ”

Benjamin was stunned when he saw the person who opened the door, which was different from what he thought.

"Auntie, why are you here?"

Vivien gave Benjamin a blank look,

"What's wrong? I'm not welcome to come, a rare family dinner, I called your uncle and your cousin, let's get together. ”

Leona glanced at Benjamin, and her eyes seemed to say that this was different from what she had said before!

It was also the first time Benjamin had seen a girl look like this, and it was a little funny.

"Don't be afraid, they won't eat you again, take it easy, take it easy."

"Don't block the door, come in!"

Benjamin's mother, Nancy, warmly greeted her son and his girlfriend through the door.

Taking Leona into the house, Benjamin looked around, and sure enough, in addition to his parents, Vivien's family was also there.

Fortunately, Benjamin thought that they would call more people, and it turned out that it was just the two of them.

"It's all family, you don't have to be nervous."

Benjamin first comforted the girl, and then stepped forward to greet the relatives he hadn't seen in a long time.

"Ben, it's been a long time, I didn't expect you to do such a good job at Tottenham.

Before, your aunt told me that I could help you more if there was anything I could do, but now I don't need it. ”

"I'm very grateful for this, and I'll call you if you need to."

Benjamin hugged Craig with a smile.

Craig Johnston was a Tottenham fan before joining Liverpool, while Vivien and Charlie were both die-hard Liverpool loyalists before Lewis bought Tottenham.

Benjamin's aunt Vivian even applied for a job at Anfield.

The reality is so interesting.

Benjamin then turned to look at his cousin Lune, who was silent.

Well, it's the Rune who made her classmates' stomachs bigger in high school in Vivian's mouth before.

"Hey, Run, why are you so cold, I remember we used to have a good relationship?"

Rune looked at Benjamin coldly and snorted.

"Hmph, you know that was before, do you know how my mom counted me down after you took charge of Tottenham?

Say I know fooling around, except for playing with cars is playing with women, unlike you, your work performance impresses grandpa.

Every day, I talk about this book, and I am praising you, and my ears are about to grow calluses!

How can I, a playboy, have more contact with you, a magical young marshal with outstanding ability, in case I take you badly, they will not scold me to death. ”

"Hahahaha, you ignored me for a long time for this? Hahahaha! ”

"Poof!"

Seeing Benjamin laughing, Rune couldn't hold back.

The two hugged each other widely.

"Ben, I'm so proud of you!"

"Hey, you don't have to pretend to be angry with me just now, and now you're so numb again."

"Hahaha, don't get me wrong, I'm proud of you when I say that you have found such a beautiful girlfriend.

I still remember that you didn't have much contact with girls since you were a child, and I was afraid that you were a! ”

"What? Of course not! At that time, I just thought that little girls were too naïve, didn't you notice that I didn't have much to talk about with my peers, both male and female? ”

"Hahahaha!"

Everyone in the room burst into laughter.

It's nice that Benjamin loves the warmth of being with his family.

Fortunately, I, the traverser, am not an orphan, how nice it is to have parents and relatives.

He returned to the girl, thinking to himself.
