Chapter 496 Mourinho's Former Disciple

"Damn~~~ These turkeys are so shameless." It was already early morning, but Lin Dong had an irritable expression on his face.

It wasn't that Lin Dong didn't want to sleep, but that the noise outside the hotel was really disturbing, because outside the hotel, Galatasaray fans were singing and dancing again.

"Hahaha~~~ Lin, this should be the first time you have experienced this kind of thing, right?" The roommate with Lin Dong was still the veteran Carvalho, and Lin Dong basically slept with Carvalho during the away games.

Mourinho's arrangement is still very helpful to Lin Dong. As a half-way monk and a rookie with only one year of playing experience, the help that a veteran can provide is far beyond imagination.

"Yes~~~" Lin Dong nodded.

"Hahaha~~~then~~this is for you" said Carvalho and took out a headset from his bag.

"This is specially made, and the sound insulation effect is very good. Put some light music, and you can take it to sleep." Not to mention, it is very comfortable to wear, and the sound insulation effect is indeed very good.

"This is a usual trick in away games, especially in important games, but it is more serious here in Turkey. Several teams in Istanbul play their home games, which are the most famous devil's home games in Europe," Carvalho continued.

"Then why don't we come tomorrow?" Lin Dong said a little depressed.

"Dude~~~ Now it's the quarter-finals of the Champions League, one step closer is the semi-finals, and then the finals. Any team will be jealous of the benefits that can be achieved."

"Damn it~~~" Lin Dong cursed secretly.

"By the way~~~ If you score a goal in tomorrow's game, don't try to provoke, let alone take revenge on the opponent's fans." Looking at Lin Dong's still hard to calm down, Carvalho couldn't help but speak again.

"Uh~~~I'm not a fool." Lin Dong rolled his eyes. Although Lin Dong was only a monk, he had heard about the notoriety of Turkish fans.

Even if Lin Dong wanted to provoke and retaliate, he wouldn't be in the opponent's home court. That wasn't bravery, but brainlessness. Obviously, it was impossible for Lin Dong to do such a brainless thing.

After getting Lin Dong's answer, Carvalho was also a little relieved. For Lin Dong, Carvalho still cared about Lin Dong after getting along for almost a season. The relationship between the two has always been very good.

There was nothing for a night, and the two of them didn't talk about anything afterwards. Although the possibility of Carvalho appearing was very small, Carvalho knew that Lin Dong's appearance rate was as high as [-]%.

Lin Dong woke up the next day still full of energy. After all, with Lin Dong's situation, it doesn't really matter if he doesn't sleep all night, it's just that he is annoyed by the noise.

In the media interview before the game the next day, Mourinho was very angry, strongly condemned Galatasaray, and sarcastically satirized the Turkish police. In the end, he wanted to sue Galatasaray to UEFA.

Subsequently, Real Madrid also issued a statement, expressing solidarity with their coach, but also condemning Galatasaray on behalf of Real Madrid, and asking UEFA to come forward.

In this day and age, the head coach not only needs to lead the team to achieve good results, but also has acting skills beside him. Look at Mourinho, his angry performance can almost catch up with Lin Dong, a former full-time actor who has been focusing on it for several years.

Speaking of which, Mourinho is also quite handsome. If he doesn't become a head coach, maybe it would be good to be an actor.

In fact, the reason why Mourinho did this was entirely out of caution. Off-court objective factors still have some effect on the two teams with equal strength, but the current strength of Real Madrid and Galatasaray is not at the same level.

It is said that there are no underdogs in the Champions League, so why are there so few dark horses in the Champions League? Basically, there are so many giants in the competition, so the real decision of the game is their respective strengths. The strength of Real Madrid is undoubtedly higher than that of Galatasaray. This is the root of Real Madrid's victory.

However, in terms of the historical record of the Champions League, Real Madrid and Galatasaray are comparable, because the two teams have only played against each other twice, and it was also a knockout match. It was 12 years ago, that is, in the 2001-2002 season. Real Madrid first lost 2:3 away, and then returned home and won 3:0.

If you count the European Super Cup, Real Madrid's record is still slightly behind. In that season, Real Madrid lost to the Turkish giants in the European Super Cup.

But even so, Real Madrid is still dominant in terms of strength. At 45:[-] in the evening, Real Madrid and Galatasaray appeared on the court on time.

Galatasaray's hell home is still very worthy of the name. When the players from both sides came out, the stands were filled with fireworks. When they saw the Real Madrid players, the Galatasaray fans had a hideous look on their faces, and they wanted to come up and tear up the Real Madrid players.

Not to mention the unbearable abuse and threats and those sundries like the Rainwater Gang. For example, coins are the most among them. Therefore, the cleaners of Galatasaray's home stadium must not be short of money.

In terms of the lineups of the two sides, the goalkeeper Real Madrid still has no changes. Iker Casillas has been completely sidelined by Mourinho. This season, it is estimated that he will no longer have the opportunity to play.

Defenders Marcelo, Ramos, Varane, Arbeloa, because Mourinho values ​​Varane's relationship, Pepe and Mourinho have become more and more rigid, and they are almost catching up with Casillas.

But this is also normal. Pepe is currently at the peak of his career. Why did Pepe change his way of playing and control his ball in order to play more games, but Mourinho would rather choose the young Varane than him. Pepe's resentment is understandable.

In midfield, Khedira and Alonso are the standard pair. Essien and Modric sit on the bench and stand by. Further forward are Di Maria, Ozil, Ronaldo, and center Lin Dong.

What is worth noting about Galatasaray is undoubtedly Mourinho's former disciples. The midfielder was the core of Inter Milan and the biggest contributor to Mourinho's Triple Crown, Sneijder.

The Dutch midfielder who was swept out by Florentino and proved himself in Inter Milan fell a bit quickly. Sneijder, who was born in 84, is not yet 30 years old, but he has now left the top five UEFA leagues.

In the season when Inter Milan won the Triple Crown in 09-10, Sneijder was the favorite of the whole of Europe, and even Mourinho wanted to bring him back to Real Madrid.

Sneijder once again confirmed the fact that choice determines fate. If Sneijder had been firmer at the time and left Inter Milan, maybe now he would not leave the five major European leagues and the top European giants early.

After all, Sneijder had no shortage of trackers at the time, and Manchester United was even more sincere.
