From coaching Real Madrid

Madrid, Valdebebas.

I don’t know why, but after the game against Getafe, the team took the bus back to Valdebebas. Everyone dispersed, but Mourinho chose to stay.

He first packed up his things in the office, but his mind was filled with the Champions League group match three days later.

Then, before he knew it, he came to the door of the coach's office.

Standing at the door and looking inside, you can see an unused desk.

There is a computer on every desk, filled with files, but it is the only one with the computer on it, and everything else is empty.

The chair that matches it is always stuck inside and is rarely pulled out to sit on.

From the first day when Mourinho coached Real Madrid, Karanka told him that this was the desk where Gao Shen was coaching Real Madrid.

Yes, the guy who always plays his cards unconventionally did not even use the office. Instead, he sat in this big office and worked with all the coaches.

Mourinho has heard about Gao Shen's deeds and knows the difficulties and challenges he faced when coaching Real Madrid. He also knows more clearly how difficult it is to achieve Gao Shen's level.

It's amazing that even now, five or six years later, Real Madrid fans still miss him.

No one dares to use his seat in this office!

As the head coach, Mourinho couldn't imagine how Gao Shen did it back then. He also admired Gao Shen's achievements very much. However, as the head coach of Real Madrid, he really felt unhappy.

He feels like a spare tire!

Yes, this desk, this chair, they are placed there, as if they are reminding Mourinho all the time.

You, Jose Mourinho, are a spare tire!

It was the same when you were at Barcelona, ​​it was the same when you were at Inter Milan, but when you get to Real Madrid, you still have a spare tire!

Every head coach has his own advantages and specialties, and has his own coaching style that he is good at, but Mourinho has a feeling that he has never been the style that Real Madrid wants.

From the chairman to employees to fans and even players, they all don't like his style.

The only reason why they tolerate Mourinho is that they feel that Mourinho is the head coach most likely to bring them a championship, so they are willing to endure it for the sake of the championship.

But what if you win the championship?

Mourinho once thought that maybe he would soon be disliked and abandoned.

Just like those scumbag men who are always in trouble and finally give up, ruthlessly abandoning the woman who is obsessed with him.

To be honest, Mourinho doesn't blame Gao Shen.

This has nothing to do with profoundness.

But he felt really uncomfortable and unhappy!

He has never defeated Gao Shen, not even once.

Sometimes he was thinking that maybe it was because Gao Shen understood him so well.

So he wanted to suddenly change his approach, but in the end, he lost even more miserably.

Whenever he loses, no matter who he loses to, the media will always attack him and compare him with Gao Shen.

Mourinho talked to Karanka about this matter in private. Do you know what the assistant said?

"It's normal, that's how it is when coaching at Real Madrid."

"Actually, your situation is relatively good. When Gao Shen was coaching, Carlos threatened to kill him as soon as he took office. Can you imagine that Ronaldo is now threatening to kill you?"

"The media at that time were counting the days every day to see when he would finish class. Some said one day, some said two days, and three or five days were considered very tolerant."

"Then, he kept winning, kept winning, one game after another, and finally..."

I have to say that Gao Shen's story at Real Madrid is very touching, very passionate, and very exciting.

But why is it so profound?

Why don't you change the plot?

Even if Gao Shen is the male protagonist of an online novel, the author can't be so partial and caring, right?

Even if I, Mourinho, am a really miserable villain boss, he still has to let me win once in a while to create some hatred, right?

You don't even know how to draw hatred when you write novels. You deserve it the more you write, the more you write!

The more Mourinho thought about it, the more annoyed he became, and the more he thought about it, the more angry he became.

Before he coached Real Madrid, he already knew that this would be the case, and he even felt that he was mentally prepared. But after actually coaching, he discovered that the mark Gao Shen left on Real Madrid was so profound.

It was so profound that he spent more than a year and still couldn't heal it.

Karanka said that this is because Real Madrid has never broken through to the top 16 of the Champions League since Gao Shen.

What Gao Shen represents is Real Madrid's final glory!

More importantly, countless Real Madrid fans were criticizing and cursing Gao Shen, feeling that he was not worthy of Real Madrid.

But after a few years, they realized more and more deeply that Gao Shen is the best one that Real Madrid has been pursuing!

"Remorse, guilt, shame, and longing..."

"Real Madrid's feelings towards Gao Shen are so complicated that they have begun to overemphasize him as a myth."

"Sometimes, we even feel that for Real Madrid, he is more than just a head coach, but a memory, a pursuit, a persistence, and a sustenance."

Mourinho sneered at this.

Damn it, how can a scumbag talk about himself in such a high-sounding way?

Isn’t it best if you don’t get it?

Does your wife always smell good to others?

Scumbags also need to have the professional qualities of scumbags!

…

"I couldn't see you in the office, so I guessed you were here."

Assistant Rui Faria's voice came from the side, awakening Mourinho from his thoughts.

Mourinho didn't even need to look back, he knew who it was by the voice.

"What's the matter?" Mourinho asked in a deep voice.

He's not in a very good mood these days, and it's the same for everyone.

"I just met Zidane. He talked to me about the current situation of the team. He asked if there was anything he needed help with."

After hearing this, Mourinho sneered, "Yes, let him sell Casillas, or let him break up with that bastard female reporter, so don't cause me so much trouble, okay?

?”

Faria suddenly smiled bitterly.

How is this possible?

Casillas is very close to that female reporter now, how could they break up?

As for selling him, Casillas' current state does have a downward trend, but selling him won't be enough.

He is only thirty years old, and for a goalkeeper, he is in his prime.

Of course, a goalkeeper like Casillas will definitely not be as good as his peak at this age. This is caused by various factors, so he is indeed not as magical as Casillas was back then.

"They attach great importance to this season's Champions League, and they still hope to calm public opinion as soon as possible and reduce the impact on the locker room. If they cannot get more European points this season, Real Madrid will probably fall into the third tier next season.

.”

As soon as Faria finished speaking, he noticed Mourinho looking at him with burning eyes.

"What's wrong?" Faria panicked.

"If you want me to calm public opinion and let Casillas go, that's fine. They know where my bottom line is. Now it's Casillas who has crossed the line. I said, don't get involved with those guys from Barcelona.

But what about him?" Mourinho was like an angry lion.

Faria understands Mourinho's mood at this moment, "He is the captain of the Spanish national team."

"I know, but why was it exposed by the media?" Mourinho said in a more serious tone.

This is the biggest problem.

Mourinho issued a ban, but you turned a deaf ear to it. You didn't say anything about it, and it was exposed by the media.

Also, if not everyone in the locker room listens to Mourinho, what is this?

If such things are not severely punished, then what authority does Mourinho have in the locker room?

The whole thing, from beginning to end, was pushed step by step by all parties to the current situation.

"I warned you back then not to play like this, but you just didn't believe it." Faria also complained a little.

Mourinho shook his hand and said, "It's too late to say this now!"

In fact, at the beginning, Mourinho wanted to create a public opinion war against Barcelona. When he launched what many people called a "war", many people on the coaching staff were opposed. Even Faria had reservations.

Opinion.

But Mourinho was very used to this kind of operation, so he didn't pay much attention to it.

Unexpectedly, public opinion escalated step by step, and he himself was now forced into a desperate situation.

He has no way out!

Faria immediately did not dare to say anything more. He knew that even if Mourinho regretted it, he would never admit it.

What's more, Mourinho is more upset than anyone else right now.

"How is Khedira's physical condition now?" Mourinho asked with concern.

Khedira participated in two games of the national team, and he gave his best and played the whole game. As a result, his current physical condition is not very ideal, and Mourinho did not let him play against Getafe.

instead of Coentrao.

The Portuguese compatriot has been in better shape recently and his physical condition is also better.

But after all, Coentrao is a full-back, so asking him to play as a defensive midfielder and partner with Xavi Alonso will lead to an unbalanced midfield situation that is more aggressive, and at the same time, the control of the rhythm is not satisfactory.

After all, Real Madrid's No. 10 and Coentrao are not the kind of people who can maintain the rhythm, let alone Ronaldo and Di Maria. This makes it easy for Real Madrid's rhythm to take off.

Khedira is a player who can bring balance to the midfield.

"I talked with the team doctor and Khedira for a while, but the situation is not particularly ideal and has not fully recovered." Fariahui reported that he is now Real Madrid's physical coach.

"Are you planning to use him in Manchester?"

Mourinho nodded, "Are you competent?"

"It will take a few more days of observation." Faria didn't dare to confirm.

Mourinho cursed angrily, feeling very annoyed in his heart.

House seemingly endless rain.

Just when he needed it most, something like this happened. Who could he blame?

Faria stood aside, looked at Mourinho, lowered his head and thought for a while, then raised his head and looked down again...

"If you want to persuade me to arrange for Casillas to play, then stop talking." Mourinho said with a livid face.

Obviously, he has made up his mind on this matter!

This is his last pride!
