Chapter 123

"Dear fans and friends, this is Sky TV. We are broadcasting for you a life-and-death battle in the 13th round of the Premier League at White Hart Lane. Manchester United played away against Tottenham Hotspur."

The game has not yet started, and the players of the two teams are warming up on the court.At this time, in the studio of Sky TV, two old partners, Morris and Raman, were explaining the game.

At this time, Raman was teasing the coaches of the two teams.

"In fact, the outcome of this game is not particularly important to the two teams, because the points of this game do not have much impact on the league trend of the two teams. It is just an ordinary Premier League game. .But this game is a real battle of life and death for the coaches of the two teams."

"Boas was dismissed by Chelsea last year and came to White Hart Lane. After hard work in the 2012-2013 season, he successfully pulled the team from No.4 to No.5. And this season he lived up to expectations and led The team has set a new low. So far in the league, Tottenham are ranked eighth in the league, even one point less than Southampton! This makes the board of directors, which has invested hundreds of millions of dollars this summer, very angry. It is reported that if Villas-Boas If he loses this game again, he will probably be dismissed by the board of directors and become the first manager in the top six of the Premier League to be dismissed this season."

"But Boas doesn't need to worry, he is not alone, because his opponent in this game is also facing the risk of getting out of class. Although Kintag is now ranked fourth in the league, he is only two points ahead of Arsenal behind him , if Manchester United lose this game, they are likely to be overtaken by Arsenal again, squeezed out of the Champions League, and dropped to fifth place. According to the gossip of "Sun" reporter Wolff, Manchester United boss Glazer family has a strong interest in Kim Tae They are already in contact with Everton coach Moyes, maybe before the end of this season, Kintag can return to his favorite youth team and continue to be an assistant coach."

"However, all the results are uncertain, and the future of the coaches of the two teams is also uncertain. The only thing they can do now is to win this game."

"The only thing we can do now is to win this game!"

By this time the warm-up was over, and in the home locker room, Villas-Boas yelled at the players.

"You were bought by the club at a huge price, at least you must be worthy of the club's investment in you! Look at the previous few games, you were actually defeated by West Ham, which was at the bottom of the league in points, 3-0. In the last round, you were 6 Lost to Manchester City 0-[-]! Are you satisfied with such a result!"

In fact, Boas is not a grumpy person on weekdays, but after answering a phone call just now, Boas was very upset.

Just as the players were warming up on the field, Boas' cell phone rang on the sidelines.Boas usually waits until the warm-up is over before putting his mobile phone in the locker room.

Hearing the ringtone of the mobile phone, Boas frowned: at this critical moment, who is so blind to call himself?

But when he picked up the phone, he was stunned for a moment. There was a very familiar name written on it: Mendez.

The name Mendes is well-known in international football.He is the most powerful agent in the football world, bar none.Since 2004, he has dominated the football transfer market in Europe.His stars include Mourinho, Ronaldo, Ronaldo, De Gea, Falcao, Di Maria, Pepe, Marcelo and a series of well-known stars and coaches. Even in 2013, this player There is no time for the price to skyrocket, and the total value of his players has exceeded 5 million.Mendes has won the respect of the entire international football world with his intelligence, diligence and super insight.

When Boas made his debut, he had been instructed and helped by the old Robson. Later, he followed Mourinho, from Porto to Chelsea, and from Chelsea to Inter Milan. He was always by Mourinho's side, Like a little follower, inquire about news and collect information for Mourinho.

The smart Mendes noticed Boas very early, so he signed with Boas early to become his agent, responsible for all his affairs.Since 2009, Mendes has found a suitable individual coaching opportunity for Boas, and Boas has lived up to expectations, leading the Portuguese club Coimbra to successfully avoid relegation.Then Boas became the coach of the Portuguese giants Porto, leading the team to win the championship.In the summer of 2011, Villas-Boas took over from Carlo Ancelotti and became Chelsea coach.After Chelsea experienced a series of unsatisfactory, Mendes also contributed to the hand-in-hand between Villas-Boas and Tottenham Hotspur.

It can be said that in Boas' career, Mendes is definitely the decisive factor, so Boas not only regards Mendes as his agent, he also regards Mendes as his benefactor.

So Boas was very surprised to receive a call from Mendes before the game.

Is there anything that has to be said before the game?

Boas answered the phone: "Mr. Mendes, hello, I'm going to the game soon, if there is anything important, can I call you after the game?"

Mendes' low voice came from the phone: "No post-match, I just want to say one thing to you now. I just finished talking with club chairman Danny Levi. He received instructions from the big boss Joe Lewis. Lewis Said, if you lose this game again, the club will fire you directly. I called to tell you this, prepare for the game.”

Before waiting for Boas to reply, Mendes hung up the phone.Only Boas was left in a daze for a long time.

After Mendes made a phone call outside, he returned to the VIP room at White Hart Lane. The club chairman Danny Levi did not speak. He knew that Mendes must have told Boas about this matter, and Levi also Helpless, Boas's leadership performance is too poor, even if get out of class in the middle of the season, it is not because the club is ruthless.

After a while, Levi spoke: "Mr. Mendes, you made a special trip to watch the match at White Hart Lane in your busy schedule. It seems that you attach great importance to Boas."

Mendes sighed: "He was so amazing in the first few years of his debut that some shortcomings were hidden. This season's leadership performance is really not good. Even if you let him go out of class, I have no complaints."

Instead, Levi comforted Mendes: "Maybe Boas can win this game smoothly, and then return to the top in one fell swoop, maybe. I believe you will not come in vain."

"I hope so."

After Mendes finished speaking, he looked at the coaching bench of the home team, where Boas would direct the game in a while, and after a while, he looked at the coaching bench of the visiting team at the stadium. Although it was empty, Mendes’ gaze Stared at it for a long time, as if thoughtful.
