Lord of Greenery

Chapter 464

Before the start of the game, Mourinho looked at Benitez on the coaching seat of Inter Milan, with complicated emotions in his heart.

This man is really his nemesis.

The game has not yet started, why does Mourinho have such emotion?
This has to start before this day comes.

Everyone knows that Ibrahimovic and Mourinho are the kind of crazy talkers. In their perception, no one seems to be better than them.

At the same time, they are all ruthless people. Ibrahimovic is due to his personality, and Mourinho's doing this is more of an outside trick.

The biggest difference between the two is that after Ibrahimovic left his old club, he would even directly speak ill of his old club.

In fact, sometimes, what he said was not too harsh, but he was arrogant by nature, and he would not show mercy just because he was his old club or his old teammate. He didn't have that concept, and even if he did, he wouldn't bother to abide by it.

After hearing his words, his former fans inevitably felt bad, and even felt that he was a betrayal.

It is also because of this that Ibrahimovic was once synonymous with "traitor", and there are very few old clubs who get along well with him during this period of time.

Mourinho has done better than him in this regard, or rather the opposite.

After leaving Serie A, Mourinho talked about Serie A, his former opponents, and even praised them mostly.

Without the necessary work to "win", his attitude is even quite peaceful, which is completely different from when he was the head coach.

When referring to his old club, Mourinho also praised mostly.

In this regard, the attitude of doing things, the difference between the two "madmen" is reflected.

Let's draw conclusions from this-

Ibrahimovic's "crazy" is character, and Mu Niao's "crazy" is work.

Continue to ask a question here-

When Mourinho leads the team to face his old club, what kind of attitude will he have?
Is it crazy to belittle and provoke for the sake of winning?
Or is it for the sake of showing mercy in the past?

Mourinho chose a smarter approach.

He did not belittle Inter Milan, but pointed the finger at Benitez.

"He did nothing at Inter."

"He tried to change the formation, tried to change the lineup, I heard that he has promoted many young players?"

"But he failed. Now the most important players for Inter Milan are Li Ze, Sneijder, Milito, Maicon, Lucio, Cesar, Cambiasso..."

"Look at Inter Milan's starting lineup, what's the difference from last season?"

"Their tactics? Usually he tries to play double midfielders, but at the critical moment, what formation is he using against Barcelona? Three midfielders! My three midfielders!"

Mourinho pointed to himself.

"He's just learning from me. He's just following the old path I've walked. It's not Rafa, but Li, who has led Inter Milan to the present."

"We will eliminate Inter Milan because I know them too well."

"Lee and the others are also very good. They used to be my pride, but my current players will not lose to them!"

"more importantly……"

Mourinho smiled mockingly.

"I'm stronger than Rafa."

The so-called verbal offense does not mean swearing, which is tasteless and not necessarily useful.

The best way to really piss someone off is to get to the point.

Materaz once sprayed Zidane, but it was useless after halftime.

Zidane is notoriously short-tempered, but he is not easily provoked.

Otherwise, everyone would have used the same method to deal with him long ago.

Materazzi had been prepared that day and targeted Zidane's sister.

Later, it was the ecstasy of Ba Wang's top.

The same is true now, Mourinho did not mean to curse, he only aimed at Benitez.

He knows that it's only one season, and with his results from last season as a base, Inter Milan fans will not particularly recognize Benitez.

So he took aim at the Spaniards.

At the same time, he knew where Benitez was most uncomfortable.

As his successor, Benitez must have wanted to get out of his shadow all the time.

For this kind of Benitez, what he just said is the most direct and vicious language attack, completely negating all of Benitez's work in Inter Milan, and attribute all his credit to himself.

For a head coach, there is nothing more stressful than that.

The players in Inter Milan, even those who are more inclined to Mourinho, have been a little worried about Benitez recently.

They are not fools, and they are naturally aware of Mourinho's malice.

In the position of the head coach, it is not too much to say that he is the most important one in the team.

If Benitez loses his composure, then Inter Milan's knockout round is destined to be very difficult.

Facing Mourinho's attack, Benitez he...

He is calm.

Yes, very calm.

Unusually calm.

When the outside world questioned him overwhelmingly, Benitez even wanted to laugh a little.

In his long career, the only time he was out of breath was because of Ferguson.

At that time, he deeply felt the FA's care for Manchester United. Seeing that the Premier League champion was getting farther and farther away from Liverpool, Benitez's mentality collapsed.

Benitez is not a head coach who is easily angered. Just like his coaching style, his attitude is very indifferent.

This is true for people and the world, it is true for players, and it is even more true for the outside media.

Although Mourinho's words were harsh, changing to another fledgling head coach, even if he endured it for the sake of the overall situation, it would affect his mentality.

But Benitez is different. Faced with various doubts from the outside world, he just wants to laugh.

Everyone seems to have forgotten...

"I met him twice in the knockout rounds of the Champions League, both semi-finals, and I won both." Benitez responded with a smile.

When Liverpool was in charge, against Chelsea, Chelsea basically won the league and Liverpool basically won the cup.

It is normal for Chelsea to win in the league. Their lineup at the time was really luxurious.

But it's a bit strange to win Liverpool in a cup.

Liverpool's lineup at the time was incomparable with Chelsea.

At that time, even Alonso hadn't been recognized, and Liverpool's only card was Gerrard.

At that time, in the cup competition, especially in the Champions League, Chelsea was eliminated by Liverpool twice in the knockout round, and they were still in the semi-finals!
"Because of knocking him out twice, I reached two Champions League finals, one champion and one runner-up."

At that time, it was still Milan.

"It's the third time now, and I'm sure I'll win a third time."

That's why Benitez finds it funny.

It's the Champions League, it's the semi-finals, it's the down-and-out giants on his side, and it's the wealthy giants on the Portuguese side.

Really are……

deja vu!
