0087 Maniac

Inside a fancy restaurant in Leeds.

"I thought you'd take me to eat that fried fish." Mourinho cut a steak with a knife and put it in his mouth with a fork.

"Don't talk about that, it's been a while." George Lee put down his knife and fork, picked up the glass, and took a sip of wine.

"It's normal, when my wife and I met in Setúbal, we lived very close, just across the street, you know?"

"How's it taste?"

George Lee took the opportunity to open the topic and didn't want to talk to Mourinho about this topic anymore, because in recent times, everyone has talked to him about things other than football, and it is no surprise that George Lee and Helen are in love.

"It tastes good...... I went to the Polytechnic University of Lisbon to study physical education after retiring as a footballer, while Mathilde went to the University of Lisbon to study philosophy. I heard that you are still a college student, what is your major? ”

Apparently, Mourinho did not understand what Lee meant, and continued to tell the story of himself and his wife, and inquired about Helen.

"Sports Rehabilitation."

"Yes, the newspaper said that I worked as a team doctor with you last season, right?"

"It's not the team doctor, it's just the medical team...... Can we change the subject, Jose. ”

"Yes, yes, it looks like you've been by the media lately."

"That's right, it all affected my coaching, otherwise I wouldn't have lost today."

"Bullshit......"

Leeds United lost 3-1 at home to top-ranked Chelsea in the game that just ended, with Frank Lampard, Didier Drogba and new signing Crespo giving Leeds United three goals to give Leeds United a leg up to the gap between first and second.

"George, two years ago, who would have thought that Chelsea and Leeds United would be at the top of the Premier League halfway point, and Manchester United, Liverpool and Arsenal would be below us." Mourinho also put down his knife and fork and picked up his wine glass to clink glasses with George Lee.

"Ding~"

"Jose, that's you, if I lose two more games, maybe I'll be caught up."

"No, just win all the games you need to win, and you'll be fine. At least in the Champions League next season. ”

"So, if I lose to you, you shouldn't have won?"

"Hehe, your lineup is less than mine."

A madman is a madman, and Mourinho didn't give George Lee any face when he spoke.

"That's because you've invested a lot, and my investment this season is less than your Essien."

Mourinho glanced at George Lee and sighed. Then he touched the top of his head and said to him.

"Do you see my hair, I was black when I came to England two years ago, and now...... My boss knew that if one day I couldn't bring him a championship, I would have to leave here. ”

"Can't you be like Arsene Wenger and Alex Ferguson?"

"You may be like that, but I won't, even if he doesn't dare me go then, I will go myself."

"And where do you most want to go?"

"It's probably Barcelona."

Really.

"Why?"

Although as a time-traveler, George Lee probably knew why, but he still wanted to hear Mourinho tell him with his own ears.

'I worked there, Bobby Robson took me from Sporting Lisbon, Porto to Barcelona, and then I worked with Louis van Gaal for a couple of years there, and I learned a lot of advanced modern football theory from him.

"But that's not the same tactical philosophy you have now."

Jose Mourinho is now all about defending and counter-attacking efficiently, but Louis van Gaal is the master of all the attack.

"There is no conflict, I can only face it and defeat it if I learn to attack and defend it all."

"Wow, so Van Gaal taught you everything he had?"

"Did Ferguson teach you?"

Mourinho directly countered George Lee, because Mourinho was a student of Van Gaal, and Ferguson was George Lee's teacher.

"He wants to teach, but I don't want to learn."

"They all call you a gentleman, call me a madman, it looks like you don't live up to your name."

"What is it about Barcelona that attracts you?"

'It's hard to say, I was there for a couple of years and I just had a special feeling about wanting to coach it and become the manager at Camp Nou.

"Talking for a long time is equivalent to not saying it."

"You're not going to Barcelona anyway, you won't understand."

"Will one day our team's interpreter come to me and say, 'You get out of class, I want to coach Leeds United.'"

"I don't think so. Your team hardly needs an interpreter, it's all native, Dutch and Nordic. ”

Mourinho also found out, or heard about it, and knew that George Lee had some special requirements for the nationality of the player. And Mourinho has a lot of Portuguese players and Latin-speaking players in South America.

"If you went to Barcelona, how would you transform him, or do you think there is anything lacking in Barcelona now?"

"Why are you asking this?"

'If I get out of Barcelona in the Champions League next season, I'm so prepared.'

"Why don't I tell you what weaknesses Chelsea have right now, and you can use them against me next time."

"Okay."

The two looked at each other and smiled, then raised their glasses again.

"Ding~"

"Thank you, George, for your hospitality, and let me have a treat the next time we go to London and we play each other again."

"You're welcome, I don't think all coaches can come to London and get your meal."

"In England, you're the only one."

"Then I'm a little more than you, at least that old man from Ferguson is here, and I'm going to greet him."

"What about the others?"

"At least Moyes and Mark Hughes won't be eating with me."

"Hahaha~"

Leeds United are now bitter for Blackburn Rovers and Everton, as the whole Premier League knows.

"George, why do you go back, I heard that you don't drive after drinking."

"Do you Chelsea scouts still have to investigate the habits of the opposing coaches?"

"Not really."

"It's coming~"

George Lee pointed to an Aston Martin that had just stopped outside, then got up to say goodbye to Mourinho.

^^^

The commentary is crazy.

“What a amazing goal!”

"Van Persie killed the game!"

"A shocking volley, Arsenal's goalkeeper was stunned and didn't react!"

"90 minutes, 3-2, Arsenal at home has no chance!"

Van Persie also made a silencing gesture at Highbury Stadium and the Arsenal fans erupted in earth-shattering boos.

"The Dutch striker they almost got today took out Arsenal in their own way."

"3.5 million pounds, if they could have had 500,000 or 1 million more, then today's winner might not be Leeds United!"

'Leeds are still clinging to Chelsea at the top of the table with three points, they are getting closer to the Champions League, and they have reached the last 16 in the Europa League.

"I'm going to tell all the Premier League teams, the big European teams, the wolf is coming!"

George Lee had just celebrated Van Persie's goal with his aides when the referee blew the end whistle shortly after Arsenal's kick-off.

Lee typed away his clothes and hurried to Wenger to shake his hand.

When shaking hands, although George Li's attitude was still very humble.

But Wenger could clearly feel his hand shaking, and it was a little harder than usual.
