Chapter 168

Professional football has always been an exclusive circle, and Spain is no exception.

In recent years, Spanish football talent is booming, not only players, but also coaches.

In the 42 teams of La Liga and La Liga, there are only three foreign coaches.

They are Welsh coach toshak of real society, German coach heinks of Athletic Bilbao, and Chinese coach Gao Han of Atletico Madrid who returns to La Liga.

Both heinks and toshak have been in charge of Real Madrid. The former led Real Madrid to win the Champions League in 1998, while the latter took charge of the Bernabeu twice. The first time was in the 1989-90 season, with 107 league goals. Even now, they have not been broken.

Both of them are famous coaches in Spanish football and even in Europe. They don't need to prove themselves to anyone for a long time. Moreover, they have been coaching Spain for many years and have a lot to do with each other in the professional coach circle.

On the contrary, it's the cold, young one, who came here for the first time, and took Atletico Madrid to win in a row, from the relegation zone to the West B champion. Although it has created a surprising miracle, it still seems out of place in this circle.

What's more, Atletico Madrid is full of vigour, which threatens the teams in the middle and lower reaches. In addition, more or less some of its peers are light, so the cold weather will inevitably be ignored.

Paul futre and Huron lopeggi are both professional players. They have some acquaintances in the circle. When they meet, they will inevitably have to talk, but Gao Han is obviously not interested in their topic.

Since there was no one to talk to, he was happy and free. He went to the window alone and silently looked at the street where the building got off.

This street to the west, about four or five kilometers, is Real Madrid's Bernabeu stadium.

Soon, it will become a barrier to the high cold.

Gao Han also saw Real Madrid coach Bosque in the venue, a fat man who looks very kind and has a thick moustache. He should be very popular in the circle, surrounded by people.

Raul and Jero get along well. There are always people who come to talk and laugh with them.

Maybe it's because Gao Han rejected Barcelona's invitation not long ago, so Barcelona coach Rex sacci didn't give Gao Han a good look, and he has many friends here.

In a large circle, there will inevitably be some small circles.

This is what happened in the meeting hall. More or less, it formed a circle one by one. There was a lot of discussion and a lot of voices.

The only surprise to alpine is that Zambrano has many friends here. He seems to be very popular in the meeting place. He occasionally glances at Alpine with sarcastic eyes, which makes people feel uncomfortable.

This guy really has a grudge!

You scold me in the newspaper. I haven't settled this account with you yet. If you dare to provoke me, I'm not finished with you!

Gao Han sneered to himself and didn't trust him.

In his opinion, Zambrano is a clown. He really has the ability not to find a job until now, so he can only curse people in the newspaper and get paid.

Soon, Gao Han noticed that behind the busy crowd, there was a man sitting alone in the corner like him.

The captain of Barcelona, oh no, the former captain, Guardiola.

As soon as I saw clearly that it was him, Gao Han walked over.

He can still remember clearly that at the beginning, he was the first one who came to greet himself and congratulated himself on winning the championship.

"Hey, PEP."

Guardiola suddenly raised his head, to see the cold, some accident, "Hey, it's you."

"Can I sit down?" Gao Han pointed to the seat next to him.

"Of course, of course." Guardiola did a please.

Gao Han sat down beside him with a smile. He noticed that Guardiola was a little lonely.

He's been in a really bad situation recently.

Because FIGO's transfer to Real Madrid has led to his embarrassing situation in Barcelona, coupled with the conflict with the management, Guardiola announced early that he would leave Barcelona before the end of last season.

On the one hand, it's because of his personality, but also because he wants to go to Juve.

That's the team that his idol Platini used to play for, so he wants to go, and the Serie A giants have made it clear that they are interested in him, and Moggi even promised to sign him.

But soon, with Ancelotti out of class and Lippi in charge of the Bianconeri, everything changed.

In order to wait for Juve, Guardiola even turned down Manchester United's offer to Ferguson, who eventually signed Veron from Lazio at a high price.

In August, the operation of the transfer market is more and more clear.

AC Milan used to be interested in Guardiola, but on the one hand, they suffered a big loss from Real Madrid, on the other hand, they brought in Pirlo and Fiorentina's Rui Costa.

The two players, one younger and the other more adapted to Serie A, are irreplaceable by Guardiola.

Lazio are targeting a younger man, mendetta, and Inter are shifting their target

For a moment, Guardiola has fallen into a situation where no one cares.

A few days ago, it was reported that Real Madrid's Florentino wanted to introduce Guardiola, but soon, Guardiola publicly denied in the media that he would join Real Madrid only if he was crazy.

If he joins Real Madrid, he will become a traitor to Barcelona.

The latest news shows that Guardiola is waiting.

British media revealed that if Vieira's transfer to Real Madrid is successful, Arsene Wenger will introduce Guardiola.

But it's ironic, isn't it?

Ironically, Barcelona's management has yet to publicly retain their captain!

Guardiola is definitely not without strength, just because of various reasons, leading him into this embarrassing situation.

"How are you doing?" Alpine asked with concern.

Guardiola nodded, squeezed out a smile, "not bad."

"What about training?"

"Training with my personal trainer has always been very good."

Veteran, experienced, know how to prepare for the season.

"Have you ever thought about staying in Spain?" Gao Han asked tentatively.

Guardiola looked at the cold with some surprise. "Stay in Spain?"

"Well, we have to fight on three fronts in the new season, but we only have Xabi Alonso. Gaby is good, but he is too young, and the average age of our team is very low, so if... I mean if..."

Guardiola understood the meaning of the cold, listening to his faltering appearance, could not help but smile.

This time, I didn't have to. I had a good laugh.

He knew in his heart that it was the help of the cold.

"Thank you." Guardiola said gratefully.

Gao Han shrugged his shoulders. His meaning has been expressed clearly. Whether he wants to or not depends on Guardiola's own meaning.

Strictly speaking, Guardiola is not bad for money. Even if he retires now, he is absolutely free of food and clothing.

But for a professional player, it's an honor to kick until he feels he can't kick.

If you quit now, it's a lifelong regret.

"I'm serious. Think about it." Gao Han said seriously.

"I know." Guardiola nodded, but said nothing more.

Two people tacitly smile, and began to silence.

Guardiola has never been a very talkative person, except when it comes to football.

However, talking about football now is like uncovering his scars. Alpine naturally won't do such stupid things.

There's no choice but to be silent.

There were a lot of people in the meeting hall, and the discussion was getting louder and louder.

All the people on the scene are from the professional football circle. Naturally, the topic of discussion is closely around football.

The new season is just around the corner, and the pattern of La Liga has become the focus of everyone's attention.

Who will win the championship? Who can get the top four places? Who would be unlucky to be demoted?

These are the topics most concerned and discussed by all the people present.

There is no doubt that Real Madrid has once again become a favorite in most people's minds.

This is not surprising, because Real Madrid won the league title with absolute advantage last season, and this season they introduced the world superstar Zidane to improve their strength again. It's unreasonable not to win.

As for the relegation team, there are many opinions.

In recent years, the competition in La Liga is very fierce. Many teams in the middle and lower reaches are in danger. No one dares to say that they will be relegated.

"Other teams I dare not say, but there is one team I can guarantee, it will be relegated."

Not far from the cold and Guardiola, Fernando Zambrano talks to the crowd.

"Which team are you talking about?"

"Ha ha, Atletico Madrid!"

"Atletico Madrid?" There was something unexpected.

"I have a reason. First of all, this is a promoted team. Compared with two years ago, the team has changed a lot. Most of the main players are not familiar with La Liga, and they are very young and inexperienced

Youth often means instability and immaturity, which is fatal.

"What's more, they have no experience in the transfer operation. At least I can't believe that any experienced transfer operator will sell the promoted heroes and bring in a few unknown small roles. They still want to be relegated?"

"I can't say that Atletico Madrid is wrong to think about metabolism, but at least it's too hasty."

At the end, Zambrano snorted twice.

Apart from personal grudges, Zambrano's words are reasonable and have won the recognition of many people. Some people even feel sorry for Atletico Madrid.

Zambrano's voice is not small, alpine and Guardiola can just hear.

"It seems that you have really offended him!" Guardiola has been in the football circle for more than ten years. Where can't he understand?

Gao Han turned his lips and said, "he has only one left."

Zambrano didn't respond to the high cold. He thought he was a newcomer and didn't dare to attack, so he had more courage.

"The team is too young, the transfer operation is not good, these are all problems, but the most fatal thing is that they have a unreliable head coach who has won a few games in the low level league and forgotten where he came from, hehe..."

Although Zambrano said all these things in the column and clearly knew that he was aiming at the high cold, the Spanish coaches all around him laughed.

In the Spanish football circle, even in recent years, there are still a lot of xenophobic people who think highly of themselves.

Zambrano is obviously one of them.

But the cold, sitting next to Guardiola, was angry.

When you say something, I can pretend I didn't hear you and give you freedom of speech.

But you can't play personal attacks by name（ (to be continued.)
