Midfielder

Mourinho is not waiting for a price to be sold by not making a decision for his future. For him, he may just want to accumulate more coaching experience.

Mourinho has his own considerations. Since the day he stepped down as the head coach of Porto, he has been thinking about what he should do.

The four major leagues in Europe are the destinations he needs to consider. He has no idea about the French Ligue 1. In his own words, he does not want to be the best coach in Europe at the age of 40, but at the age of 50, he has become a defeated old flower.

Although the head coach position requires experience, the more experienced the guy, the more attention he will attract, but Mourinho does not want this.

From the moment he lifted the Champions League with Porto, he only wanted to conquer more teams and win more trophies. He needs the feeling of victory.

It's like taking drugs. The championship will make people addicted, especially the world's top games, which will always make people excited.

But when more and more calls and faxes are piled on the table, Mourinho himself is also hesitating. He doesn't know where is the best for him.

Mendes once gave me advice. Among the four major leagues, the Premier League is the most watched now, and the conditions offered are also the most generous.

Compared with the declining Serie A and the La Liga dominated by two strong teams, the Premier League may be more likely to satisfy Mourinho's desire to conquer the game.

There are opponents like Wenger and Ferguson, as well as strong teams like Manchester United and Arsenal. The intense atmosphere of the game will make people feel crazy.

Moreover, the Premier League is the league with the best economic conditions. There is never a shortage of businessmen who are willing to spend money, just like the Russian owner of Chelsea.

At least 80 million euros in transfer fees are at your disposal. This is the promise made by Peter Kenyon, CEO of Chelsea, to Mourinho.

80 million euros is a big arm. This money can almost buy half of the shares of the top three Portuguese teams, and it is a conservative estimate.

A very tempting condition, but Mourinho also knows what Chelsea needs. Behind the temptation, there is also a strong pressure.

Champion, Premier League champion, FA Cup champion, Champions League champion, the Russian tycoon's request is actually very simple, he needs a trophy.

Especially after experiencing nothing in the past season, the Russian does not want the money he spent to have no practical effect.

After investing more than 100 million euros, the Russian needs to see the benefits. After all, he is not a philanthropist, and a large investment must have a return.

Abramovich does not want to hear those newspapers take his large investment as a joke and say something everywhere. He needs to make an appropriate counterattack.

There is no doubt that the championship is the best counterattack. Just step on Manchester United and defeat Arsenal. This is what the head coach of Chelsea has to do.

Abramovich spends money and wants results. This is a very simple and straightforward equal relationship. Therefore, the head coach of Chelsea has a clear mission.

Just like Ranieri, he has dragged Chelsea to a rare height at the fastest speed. The second place in the league and the semi-finals of the Champions League can be said to have created a historical record for Chelsea, but in the eyes of the Russians, it cannot satisfy his desire for the championship.

So the Italian received a notice of dismissal before the end of the season, and he was sent away with a check.

If he can't win the championship, he will leave. This is not only Abramovich's way of clearing the legacy of his predecessor, but also a signal to all the upcoming people.

Mourinho is also clear about his task after joining Chelsea. If he can't win the trophy in a season, then he will end up like this.

He may even end up worse than Ranieri. After all, the kind Italian old man has always been very popular among Chelsea fans.

In addition to the Premier League championship trophy, only the Champions League can arouse the interest of Russians. He doesn't care about the rest of the championships.

For this kind of nouveau riche club, Mourinho can't take the time to knead the players like he did for Porto. Those guys with high salaries can't bow down to him like Deco and others. Now it seems that he has to face a lot of difficulties.

However, Mourinho has never resisted this kind of challenge, and even likes it. It's just that now he is more concerned about the little guy with black hair.

He knew why Lin Yi had not decided which team to join. Although the boy did not say it, he knew that the boy was waiting for him.

Seeing the sharp blade polished by himself shining brightly in the Champions League, this was Mourinho's pride, but he did not say it.

But he would not think that this was Lin Yi's peak of competition. For that boy, he still had a long way to go in the future, and he would win more.

Just like a swordsman who is used to his own weapon and finds it difficult to adapt to other weapons, Mourinho is now hesitating about how to take Lin Yi away.

Chelsea may be the team that can best achieve his goals, but there is more than one team that is suitable for Lin Yi.

Regardless of whether Mourinho's next stop is Chelsea, he must say that Chelsea people are not very professional in terms of transfer arrangements and future plans, especially when it comes to introducing players. , Peter Kenyon is used to using money to solve problems.

But he has never considered whether the players he bought are suitable for Chelsea and whether they are suitable for the head coach's style. This kind of buying is very blind.

Before Mourinho had even decided to coach the team, they had already bought Robben and Drogba, and for this reason, they even did not hesitate to send Crespo away.

It was also a change of center position, and the guy who was sent away still had half of his salary to be paid by Chelsea. It was really an idiotic decision.

On the issue of Drogba and Crespo, Mourinho reserved his opinion. After all, the Argentine's strength at the center position is there.

Even if Drogba is indeed performing more fiercely now, who can guarantee that this guy can quickly integrate into the team's tactical system?

A senseless waste, maybe Peter Kenyon doesn't care how much money is spent now, but in Mourinho's view, that guy is just squandering.

The same is true for Lin Yi. Chelsea can be said to be the team that pays the most transfer fees, but they can give the least guarantees.

They can pay Lin Yi an annual salary of one million pounds, or even more, but they may not have even considered what to do after buying him.

Mourinho believes that no one is better than him when it comes to using that kid, but for a new team, he must integrate more than 20 people into it, not just waste time on Lin Yi. In comparison, Arsenal and Manchester United have the advantage.

Chelsea needs to produce results as quickly as possible, but Mourinho doesn't know if Lin Yi will continue to be crazy in the Premier League.

After all, it does take a certain amount of time for a person to integrate into an unfamiliar team, and that team is now filled with famous players.

It is impossible for the fans and the board of directors to give themselves much time to carefully adjust the lineup. What they need is the most actual results, not an expectable future. If Lin Yi cannot integrate into the team in the shortest time, then wait for this small team. Guy's may be the bench bench.

That scene is not what Mourinho wants to see, and the lack of games is a kind of damage to Lin Yi, who is in the growing period, if he does not advance, he will retreat.

All this is what Mourinho needs to worry about. After all, no one can guarantee that Lin Yi will quickly integrate into an unfamiliar team.

Even he didn't dare to say how well Lin Yi could adapt to an unfamiliar environment. After all, that boy was going to face a very cruel elimination.

That is the core of professional football, competition, elimination, and then death. Too many people have reached the end of their careers in such an environment.

In addition, the Chelsea team is absolutely impossible to be a monolith. The situation there is not as harmonious as the Porto team, and the competition will be very cruel.

Don't expect those mercenaries to treat Lin Yi as friendly as Deco. There is absolutely no care from teammates here, only endless fighting.

All the players gathered here are already famous players. No one is a gas-saving lamp, and don't expect to get along with each other in harmony.

No one wants to be someone else's substitute. Lin Yi joining will inevitably become a threat to others. That kind of environment may be very bad for Lin Yi.

Everyone here cannot make mistakes easily, otherwise, even if you are worth tens of millions, you will still be driven back to the bench by the fans.

Those who spend dozens of pounds to watch the game will never be as loving as the Dragons Stadium. England's fans are notoriously bad-tempered.

Even a hero like Beckham has enjoyed the boos and abuse of others at Old Trafford, let alone outsiders.

It is impossible for Mourinho to insist on fixing Lin Yi on the court under the guise of being a direct descendant. Unless the kid can be kicked out by himself, everything is out of the question.

Compared with this situation, the environment of Manchester United and Arsenal may be much better than that of Chelsea, at least the team atmosphere is much stronger.

At least Wenger can give a strong guarantee, and the Frenchman is indeed better than others in training young players.

Not to mention the old man of Manchester United. He is now greatly adjusting the age structure of Manchester United, which is to prepare for restoration in the league.

And his use of young players is sometimes more bold. Most importantly, his desire for Lin Yi is almost like a widow.

Maybe Manchester United and Arsenal are the best choices for Lin Yi at this stage in terms of future planning, so this makes Mourinho hesitate.

"Mendes, if you were me, would you choose to take that boy with you?" Mourinho asked blankly on the phone, which made Mendes, who was preparing to fly to England for negotiations, also fall into a trap After pondering, it now seems that what Mendes needs to consider is the future of the two people.

"I don't know, but that kid has not made a decision yet. He is just waiting for news from you. For him, you are a rare mentor."

Indeed, as Mendes said, if Lin Yi hadn't wanted Mourinho to be his coach, maybe he would have signed the transfer contract long ago.

Even if Ferguson called him enthusiastically, he ignored it. Compared with those people, Lin Yi believed in the guys around him more. He was used to tying his future to these people. If one day they really had to separate, he hoped that it would be something that he would need to consider a long time later.

For this wild horse-like kid, Mendes knew that he needed a good life mentor now, and Mourinho was the most appropriate person.

After all, there are not many people who can face tens of millions of transfer contracts and the call of the giants, and be so calm, but Lin Yi did it.

This kid has a grateful heart. He knows who brought him to the path of professional football, and he is used to this mode of getting along.

"Maybe he thinks more simply than you and me. He just wants to play football, be with someone familiar, and become the best player on the football field."

"Then share the joy of victory with us. Maybe that's what he thinks. Jose, the kid you taught is not complicated."

Mendes' words made Mourinho fall into deep thought. Should he let go of this sharp blade he made, or keep it to continue to polish it?

Should he go to Chelsea with him to take risks, or let him choose a place that suits him better? Mourinho didn't think about it.

Compared with Lin Yi, this time Mourinho lacked the previous decisiveness and had a little more concerns, but he forgot how tough Lin Yi was.

Mendes didn't say anything clearly, but the one or two words he said made Lin Yi understand why Mourinho didn't decide the future.

"I didn't expect that wretched old man would worry about such an idiotic problem." I really don't know what kind of expression Mourinho would have when he heard Lin Yi's words. Anyway, Mendes opened his mouth wide. He found that in this kid's eyes, there were no smart people at all.

"No matter where you go to play football, you have to face competition. Even if you stay in Porto, it's the same. Isn't it England? Isn't it Chelsea? What's there to be afraid of!"

"Are all the eight-legged spiders in the Premier League? Damn, they are all two-legged people. WHO is afraid of WHO. If I want a main position, I will grab it myself!"

Uh, Mendes was completely speechless this time. TNND, it turned out that the things he and Mourinho had considered for a long time became so simple when they came to this kid!

Just like Lin Yi said, he doesn't care who he meets, teammates or opponents, he will conquer the other party neatly.

He has this confidence. As long as he steps on the grass, he will be the final winner. Failure is not for him.

Lin Yi knew very well that when he left Porto, he would face brutal competition and elimination. He had never worried about this.

"It's all about playing football. There's no need to think so much. If I don't try, I'll never know where I'm inferior to others."

Lin Yi understood that Mendes and Mourinho's thoughts were mostly for his own good, but he never had a fear of things on the field.

This was just like his experience in Benfica's training camp. Among the hundreds of children who participated in the training, only a dozen of them stayed.

He was the first of the dozen to enter the professional team. He achieved such a goal in less than half the time of those people.

At the age of 15, as a professional player, he created his own miracle. He used his tough character to mark his football journey.

When other players may not have the opportunity to lift the three major European cups in their lifetime, he won two in just over a year. Such results cannot be explained by miracles alone. It can only be said that Lin Yi, this little guy, not only has good luck, but also has a strong will to fight his opponents to the end.

No one has ever seen Lin Yi voluntarily admit defeat on the field. As long as there is a glimmer of opportunity, this kid will do his best to continue to tangle with his opponent.

Either knock down the opponent or be knocked to the ground by the opponent. Otherwise, you can never expect Lin Yi's feet to give up the desire to run.

Regarding his future, Lin Yi has never been confused. Anyway, he will conquer all the honors on this damn football field one by one.

Looking at Lin Yi's expression of being a dead pig not afraid of boiling water, Mendes suddenly felt that he was just worrying about himself here. That kid didn't care where to play football. He and Mourinho were just full and had nothing to do, so they had to worry so much about that kid.

"Jose, I think we can consider negotiating with Peter Kenyon, because I find that our worries are unnecessary."

Mendes was in no mood to explain the reasons to Mourinho. He didn't want to be regarded as an idiot uncle like Mourinho by Lin Yi again.

As for how to vent this resentment? Mendes has a good way. The best way to deal with a CEO who doesn't take money seriously is to make him spend more.

Mendes has already sharpened his knife. He is quite adept at this difficult technical job of killing big heads.

"If I can't squeeze out the grandson's check for this transfer, it will be a waste of my time in the agent circle!" When Lin Yi watched Mendes leave this harsh words and board the plane to England, he couldn't help but feel sad for Peter Kenyon. Alas, no one is easy to mess with.

The future that has been determined and the challenges that will be faced again make Lin Yi feel the desire to step on the court again. . .

(Yao Ming made the choice that I least wanted to see, accepting surgery, a very risky choice. If he breaks his bones again, maybe... Alas)
