Mendes drank a little and relaxed.

Xia Xing won the ball, he was in a very good mood, and his face was flushed with excitement without drinking.

The conversation was more casual.

Xia Xing suddenly asked: "What is Coach Mourinho doing?" ”

Mendez smiled: "That guy still won't answer your call?" ”

"Well, yes. I don't answer the phone, and I only send occasional messages. ”

"That stubborn guy."

Mendez dried the beer in his hand and shook his head slightly.

Although he fell out with the club this time, it was indeed he who took the initiative to resign.

"So in his heart, he always thinks that he is sorry for you,

"Especially you, who promised you a future, but did not lead you to a better future,

"So he's always been guilty, that's why he's embarrassed to answer your call."

Xia Xing shook his head.

"I never blamed Coach Mourinho,

"He's been very nice to me, he's a good coach and he's a good big brother.

But despite this, he still couldn't decide a lot of things.

"Especially at Manchester United, it's complicated and confusing.

'I'm a player who is still like that, he's working harder as a manager.

"I understand him."

Mendes patted Xia Xing's shoulder with satisfaction: "If Jose hears what you say, he will definitely be extremely moved, he is a crying guy, haha." ”

Xia Xing also smiled: "Really? I rarely see him cry. I really want to see him, talk to him all night, have a good chat. ”

"Do you only talk about feelings?"

'Of course not, I also want to talk about tactics and team development.

"Isn't this supposed to be a conversation with Solskjaer?"

"I'm not that familiar with him yet, and some of the philosophies are somewhat different."

"For example?"

'For example, the appointment of Pogba and Anthony Martial, I am very entangled.

"Huh."

Mendes smiled.

He dried another bottle of beer and burped.

'Solskjaer, he's a good manager, but not a good coach.

"Oh? Why? ”

"Because, he's very good at managing the team, I'm talking about general management, he's even better. And he is good at dealing with different types of management, players, and coaches, and can make everyone happy. And he's a good guy, and he's been very effective in promoting young people lately, especially Greenwood, who I think has a future. ”

"But you're saying he's not a good coach?"

'Yes, if he can be a sporting director, it's definitely Manchester United's luck and he's a good fit for the position. But as a manager, he still lacks some energy. Not to mention Mourinho's kind of radicalism, even Ancelotti and Ranieri have the ruthlessness of a strong man breaking his wrist at a critical moment. Solskjaer doesn't, he's more gentle, which is not good for the long-term development of the team, especially for a super club aiming to reach the top of Europe, which is definitely a bad thing. ”

"You think so?"

"That's right, that's my point. So I think Manchester United will definitely sign him on a long-term contract in the future, which is normal, after all, now that Manchester United are doing better and the overall atmosphere of the team is good, it deserves a formal contract. However, he won't stay long. Because Pogba and Anthony Martial's personal problems have only been swept under the rug, and they still haven't been resolved. And he doesn't use you to the extreme, which proves that the team ceiling is limited. Take this Champions League match as an example, it is estimated that it will be difficult for Manchester United to enter the quarterfinals. ”

Mendez may have drunk too much today and spoke somewhat casually.

Xia Xing knew that there were actually some other meanings.

That's Timurinho's grievances.

This team was built by Mourinho, especially the team with summer behavior at its core, which made the foundation of the six crowns.

Seeing Mourinho leave the field with such regret, Mendes was also in a bad mood.

Looking at the drunken and hazy Mendes, Xia Xing helped him to the guest room and lay down to rest.

I went back to my room.

Lying in bed, I actually had some insomnia.

On the one hand, the excitement of the game has not passed, and on the other hand, it is also because of the words of Mendes just now.

Xia Xing even has a feeling that after Mourinho's departure, Manchester United will be further and further away from the right direction in the future.

And his future at Manchester United is also buried in the fog, and he can't see the way forward.

Let's see what the future holds......

Returning to Manchester from Leicester, Xia Xing quickly returned to the intense rhythm of training.

Because the knockout rounds of the Champions League are coming.

Mendes told him that United would not even make it to the quarter-finals this time.

Although Xia Xing is full of confidence in the team, he also feels extremely pressured in his heart.

Especially their opponents, but the strong Paris.

Six days later, Manchester United ushered in the 26th round of the Premier League and played away to Fulham.

In this game, Manchester United won 3-0 again.

Anthony Martial received an assist from Xia Xing and scored twice to give his team an early lead.

Anthony was very positive in this game and both chances came out.

Xia Xing's pass was just right.

This made Xia Xing nod his head.

As long as he plays well, the French striker still has two strikes.

Herrera scored from distance to seal the win.

Herrera, who is approaching the end of his contract, has not slackened at all, and still goes all out to deal with every appearance.

The professional attitude is respectable.

It was a difficult game as United picked up the three points again.

Next, the key battle finally arrived.

For Ole Gunnar Solskjaer, the two legs against Paris will be crucial.

That will determine whether he can get a long-term contract.

Now the team has moved to sixth in the league and has qualified.

Next up is the Champions League results.

Even if the team does not bring in reinforcements in the winter transfer window, and even if the team has a lot of problems, the club still believes that the team can at least reach the quarter-finals.

That's their bottom line.

If he loses to Paris and is eliminated, then Ole Gunnar Solskjaer will have to pack up and leave.

So these two legs, Ole Gunnar Solskjaer is bound to win!

The whole team is strong and ready to go.

Ole Gunnar Solskjaer also vowed to do so.

Facing reporters, he made a bold statement: "We are confident that we can defeat all opponents, and we must know that we are the defending champions!" ”

Everything is ready and everything goes smoothly together.

However, there is still a small problem.

It was Paul Pogba who found Ole Gunnar Solskjaer and demanded that the game continue as the heart of the attack.

This......

"Coach, please trust me, I will definitely bring goals and wins to the team!"

Looking at Pogba, who swore by him, Solskjaer couldn't say anything.

The goal of his team has always been to be stable and gentle, and he is naturally unwilling to have discord with generals and commanders on this kind of issue.

"Well, I promise you......" (end of chapter)
