Midfielder.

Chapter 34
Signing for Porto does not mean that you have gained a firm foothold in Porto. Both Mourinho and Lin Yi need to rely on their performance to speak for themselves.Especially now that Lin Yi needs to win the trust of Porto fans with both feet, he must integrate himself into the team as soon as possible.

This is a brand new environment, and Porto's current situation in the league is not second.The fans will not give Mourinho too much time, nor will they allow new players like Lin Yi to have a relaxed environment. After increasing investment, the Porto team needs to see results.

Especially these rookies who joined the team midway, they had to put up the spirit of twelve points to accept the test.They need to use their own performance to tell those fans that the club's money is not wasted or wrongly spent, and they are worthy of every penny.

There are ten rounds left in the league, and Porto has also entered the top 16 in the UEFA Cup.This undoubtedly increased the pressure on Mourinho now, and it also posed a problem for the Porto team in the downturn. What kind of results they want to achieve requires a choice.

Now the Porto team may be the worst team in the club's history in the past 30 years. They do not lack financial support, but everyone lacks the courage and determination to win the game. They have fallen in the last three games. It was reversed by the opponent at the last minute.

The continuous failure of not winning any championship titles in several years has made everyone doubt their abilities, including the head coach who has voluntarily resigned. This team is denying itself from top to bottom.

Consecutive defeats have hit the morale of the team, and it is Mourinho's most difficult job to get them back up.

Porto has no shortage of excellent players. Dacoste's large investment has brought in many famous players, including outstanding talents like Costinha and Deco, but they lack a strong heart and lack the necessary skills. The courage to win the game.

The feeling of losing is like a poison, it will always spread in people's hearts, and Mourinho must be an antidote now.

Mourinho needs to make the team strong, he has to instill in these guys the confidence to win the game, so his opening remarks in the first training session in Porto are very simple and direct.

"I could take Benfica to the top of the league in a few months and I can repeat that process here."

"I can do it when there is a shortage of major generals, and I can still do it when you are well-organized, because you are good enough."

"Five points, this is the gap between us and No. [-] now, but there are still ten rounds to go, believe in yourself, and please believe in me, the champion will be born under your feet."

"I guarantee that I will win to the end! Now, I hope you can also tell yourself with the strongest voice, you can do your best!"

Mourinho needs to put these psychological hints into everyone's mind, what the previous coach didn't do, he has to do here, even he doesn't leave much room for himself, the league title, other than this he don't want anything.

Moreover, the most direct move after Mourinho took office was to throw aside those players who did not work hard on the field, regardless of their worth. One sentence to explain.

"That's not the player I need to win the championship. They can leave immediately after this season. I need ambitious people to occupy the main position, not these guys who just goof around."

Da Costa fulfilled his promise that he would not interfere with any team management matters, which also saved Mourinho a lot of trouble.

Compared with the problems that Mourinho needs to deal with now, Lin Yi may face a more severe situation. He is the youngest in the entire Porto team, and he has the least game experience. weakness.

There are not many people here who understand his ability, and all opportunities to play must be won back by his own ability. There is no Edward here, and there are no teammates from the youth team. Only Mourinho and Maniche are two of them. familiar.

But it is impossible for Mourinho to promise Lin Yi any guarantee of playing. If he wants to win the opportunity, Lin Yi must rely on himself. He must make himself the most important part of Porto in the shortest possible time.

Although those Porto fans have also seen the wonderful performance of this black-haired boy on TV, the ups and downs of the young man's state also determine Lin Yi's future in Porto. Although it is not as bad as Benfica, it is not tolerable. optimism.

There is no ban here, but there is competition here. In the last ten rounds, there is not much time left for Lin Yi to prove himself. He must seize every opportunity and have a performance that makes everyone shine.

The Porto team is not like Benfica lacking manpower in the attacking midfielder and midfield organization. Lin Yi must now see what competitors are standing in front of him.If he wants to play, he must win these people first, otherwise, he can only be with the bench.

Pedro Mendes, Thiago Moreira, these two seasoned guys hold the midfielder position of the Porto team, and Porto's midfielder position belongs to the Brazilian Anderson Deco, these three people All will become Lin Yi's main competitors.

The Brazilian Deco has firmly held the position of the midfielder of the Porto team. Regardless of whether Mourinho is the coach now, it is impossible to easily replace the soul of the midfielder of the Porto team. Lin Yi is in the competition for the midfielder. Almost no consideration is required.

Deco may be the only guy in the Porto team who can keep going forward on the field. He is also the kind of person who refuses to admit defeat. He doesn't care if others give up the game. He won't. This is why Mourinho will not replace it easily his reason.

Moreover, Lin Yi has only played one game in the front midfielder position so far, and his unfamiliarity with the position also puts him at a disadvantage in the competition.

Even in the match between Benfica and Athletic, Lin Yi had perfectly demonstrated his ability in the attacking midfielder position, but that was just an attempt, and now even Mourinho must clearly tell Lin Yi Wing, in his competition with Deco, he was temporarily behind.

This has nothing to do with ability, but in terms of the pressure resistance of the game. Deco, who has played in the league for several years, is more able to show his ability at critical moments. Even if there are no wonderful shots, he will complete it steadily. The tasks assigned by the coach during the game.

What Lin Yi lacks now is this kind of stability and rich game experience. Even if Mourinho wants to use him, he can only treat him as a surprise soldier again.

Moreira and Pedro, two experienced guys, will not easily lose to a boy like Lin Yi, especially Lin Yi's physical disadvantage also makes him fall behind in the competition of central midfielders situation.

But Lin Yi has never been the kind of person to admit defeat easily. He hastened to complete the training plan assigned to him by Mourinho almost every day. He spends more time on the training ground than in bed every day. When a Porto player arrives at the training ground, he can see Lin Yi, who is already covered in sweat, doing basic training with all his might.

Moreover, the viciousness with which this kid played football had taught these new teammates a vivid lesson from the first training session.

Porto's team training is just like when Mourinho first arrived at Benfica. It always seems a bit loose. This may be a common problem of the Portuguese. They prefer to play some small games in such training instead of desperate confrontation .

But Mourinho will not leave them such a comfortable training life. He let Maniche and Lin Yi bring the most authentic sense of field confrontation into the game. From the first attack, those Porto guys Already felt a sense of oppression.

Costinia, who served as the main defensive midfielder of the Porto team, and Jorge Costa, the captain of the central defender, both suffered a big loss from the little guy Lin Yi. They paid the price for their defensive laxity. Under the watchful eye, Lin Yi made two consecutive changes in the middle and directly shook him away.

The dexterous feeling and instant explosive power in dribbling were fully displayed on Lin Yi's body. He didn't give these two defensive backbones too many chances to react, so he just rushed over with the ball. The change of direction directly throws off the defender.

When they all lost their chance to defend, Lin Yi directly kicked the goal. If the goalkeeper Baia hadn't been very focused, this would have been a wonderful goal. From that moment on, no one has ignored this kid. Ability.

And because of Lin Yi's vicious performance, the entire training match has completely entered the stage of actual combat. Everyone began to fight desperately on the field. Mourinho has already said that he does not need a waste, no one wants to be a waste , so they can only work hard.

Now, no matter in terms of experience or qualifications in the team, Lin Yi has little chance of winning. He was bought into the team more by Da Costa as an investment in the future, but Lin Yi can Don't want to be just a future hope.

Now in the minds of Porto fans, he is more of a rookie with an uncertain future. Only those defenders who have been tortured by him on the training ground can deeply know that this kid is not so It's annoying.

Lin Yi has already sounded the alarm to every competitor with his performance in actual combat training. He told these guys in the most direct way, "Don't underestimate me! I will use the competition to prove my ability!".

What the Porto team needs to do now is to try their best to grab points in the league. Mourinho doesn't care about any situation of his opponents now. The remaining ten games are Porto's own contest with themselves. They must guarantee to cherish every point, and How other people play the game has nothing to do with them.

The five-point gap was completely erased from the minds of every player by Mourinho. Now he just needs to make every game a final. Don't think about how much difference is left. What you have to think about now is every game We can all win the game by three points.

Only by making the team fierce can the Porto team achieve the final success. Now is the time for Porto to grab points.

There is not much time left for the Porto team, and there is not much time left for Lin Yi to prove himself. What they can do now is to fight every game desperately, and Lin Yi needs to fight every minute.

Winning three consecutive victories, this is the gift that Mourinho brought to Porto with his desperate and fierce attack after entering the home team. He scored nine points in a row to narrow the gap between Porto and Benfica to two points. Now Benfica and Benfica Trouble has arrived for Athletic.

In the last seven rounds, the flames of the battle for points had just been ignited. . .Lin Yi was also gearing up to get ready to play. . .
