Handsome position is not easy

Chapter 65 Benfica's pig teammates
After almost successfully reversing Braga, Benfica's performance became better and better, and fans gradually began to understand Mourinho's slightly aggressive behavior against some players before, but at this moment, the change of the club's chairman The election has begun.

Taking advantage of the turmoil during the coaching change, Villariño quietly gained the support of more board members, and picked up some financial problems that were unclear within Benfica, and defeated Azevi, who was tossed by the debt crisis, in one fell swoop. Many, successfully elected as the new chairman of Benfica.

Please go back to Tony, which was already on the agenda, but the club fans who participated in the voting did not buy it very much. Rather than driving away the slowly improving coaching staff, they would rather see the board of directors reorganized as soon as possible. .

This is exactly what Villariño is thinking. Tony is just a tool to drag Azevedo down as soon as possible. What he needs to do most now is to clean up the former chairman's team from the club, which is the same as such a major event as power change. In contrast, Mourinho's stay or stay is really not an emergency.

The team's performance is getting better and the fans are supporting Mourinho. There is no need to cause more trouble at this time. Although Villarinho has postponed the coaching change, he has no intention of breaking up with this player The head coach eased the relationship.

"I approve of Mourinho's work at this stage, but he doesn't look like the man who can bring Benfica back to glory. He can do it until the end of the season, but Toni is the best man in my opinion. .”

The attitude of the new chairman is very clear, and Mourinho also knows that he is destined to be just a part-time job. The end of the season?As long as there is a slight flaw, I am afraid that Villariño, who is eager to control, will immediately catch him.

Mourinho was very aggrieved, but there was no way to leave Benfica on his own initiative?Leaving this team that has been brought out of the winning spirit, where can I find another platform to display my talents?
He is angry, unwilling, and helpless, but these emotions are all excluded from work. Mourinho is still the first person to come to the training ground, but under that enthusiastic, focused, and confident face, there is a hidden truth. An extremely heavy heart.

……

Mourinho once thought that the group of intelligence teams who were lacking in analysis reports were the most unprofessional people in Benfica, but he was wrong. When Alvaro, Mitchell and others were transferred from real power positions, The staff that Villariño had installed at the club began to show him just how poorly professional sycophants could be if they were only sycophants.

In order to avoid being harassed by the fans of the home team, the club chose a hotel in Braga, which is very close to Guimaraes. When Mourinho took the coaching team to live in, he was surprised to find that his ball The team was actually divided into two groups.

Several Benfica stars were arranged in the main building, and the remaining players had to live in the second area of ​​the hotel, separated by a distance of 500 meters.

Mourinho couldn't believe his eyes, there are still people who will divide his team, and it is such an important moment to challenge Guimaraes away.

He immediately called the Stadium of Light.

"I'm Jose Mourinho. There may be an error in the team's reservation information in Braga. Find someone to verify it as soon as possible."

It took half an hour for the club's logistics staff to arrive, and then they read the hotel's order receipt slowly on the other side of the phone. His indifferent attitude completely exhausted Mourinho's little patience.

"You mean, there's nothing wrong with that, and that's how the room is arranged?"

"Yes, sir, I can fax the papers if you want."

Mourinho hung up the phone directly, and Mozel stood by, looking at the boss whose anger was almost turned into reality, couldn't help but sighed, and sucked his teeth hard.

"Jose, do you understand what's going on?"

"The main building was originally enough for all the players to live in, but you know, there are many high-level club executives accompanying the game this time. Because the facilities in the main building of the hotel are better, the guy who booked the room allocated those rooms first in order to flatter them. To our esteemed 'directors', the rest of the players will have to go to another building."

Mourinho laughed back angrily, patted his forehead and was speechless for a long time. Mozel sat on his left and hesitated for a long time before saying: "Those directors and managers are all Villarinho's confidantes." Well, it's not easy to turn the page if you annoy them, you know the attitude of the new chairman, why don't you bear it this time..."

"Impossible, how can the players who are about to play live so far apart, even if there will be no conflicts, what should we do when we want to discuss tactical arrangements in advance? Is it possible that they should run a 500-meter warm-up first?"

Mourinho shook his head and stood up. He would not just watch the solidarity he had cultivated so hard be destroyed by a group of guys who only sat in the stands and whispered and their dogs.

Mozel called the hotel manager up, and before he could politely say hello, Mourinho handed the room order under his nose.

"Adjust my players to the same building, or I will let them check out and find another place to live. Don't worry, I will definitely keep my word."

Looking at the long list of names on the list, the hotel manager spread his hands and said in a very embarrassed way: "Sir, I have understood what you said, but there are really not enough rooms in the main building..."

"Then you can go down and check out for us now, now, except for these rooms, all the rest will be returned."

Mozel looked at the position of Mourinho's fingers, those rooms full of directors and managers, this Setubalian is really exciting, he shrugged with a wry smile.

The hotel manager, who was forced to do nothing, found the top management of Benfica, and the directors who were discussing polo and wine had a headache when they heard the news of the check-out.

They knew how tough Mourinho was in this regard. After discussing with a few people, they felt that it would be no good to bargain with the head coach who was going to check out if there was a disagreement, so they had no choice but to give up the room to players.

Mourinho's intentions are going well, but think about those directors who have repacked their bags and moved to another building, how will they be in a good mood?

Villarinho received several text messages that night, all of which were criticizing Mourinho's rudeness. Facing those well-worded accusations that were the same, he couldn't think of anything to comfort these subordinates, and he didn't bother to reply. Villariño made the call directly to the highest-ranking member of the board.

"Although this guy's behavior is impolite, he is really thinking of the team. Is it possible that you are going to use this reason to punish him? Since you have a bad relationship with Mourinho, then don't say anything more, in the stands Stare at him, find out the omissions of this guy, and then find a way to deal with him!"

On the second day, the directors sat in the box at the Alfonso Henriquez Stadium, and their eyes never left Mourinho on the coach's bench, but he was no different from usual. Rinho didn't even give him the chance to roar twice.

It wasn't until Benfica scored four goals at home in Guimaraes and scored three points with the most beautiful attack, that the directors looked away angrily. When the players came to the stands to thank them, they didn't even change their expressions .

Mourinho has been supported by players and fans, and the media has gradually changed the direction of the wind and began to rationally discuss the pros and cons of his tactical style. Forged a feud with him, the worst enemy of a company.

Knights will not be afraid of an army thousands of times larger than themselves. What they worry about on the way of charging is always the crossbow arrows flying out of the shadows and the knives cut from behind.

……

"Mr. Mourinho, can you tell me what you think of Sporting Lisbon, your opponent in the next round of the league?" At the press conference after the game, a reporter raised his hand and asked this tricky question.

"As the top of the list, their performance in the league is very strong. So many big victories are enough for all Portuguese teams to be careful about the offensive ability of the Green Lions, and I am no exception."

"As a Portuguese, you should be very familiar with the tradition of the Lisbon derby, can you talk about it?"

"The meaning of the derby should be clear to all of you without me explaining it. Too many emotions are often injected into derby games. At this time, the head coach needs to keep the emotions under control.

Personally speaking, this game is not much different from the eight rounds of the league I coached before. It is normal for rivals in the same city to be hostile to each other. All I want is to score three points at home. "

"Okay, next question..."

……

On the last vacation before the team's preparation period, Mourinho and his assistant coach Moser watched the first Tennis Masters Cup held in Lisbon together in order to relax. The French Open champion Kurten defeated the Australian Open champion in the final. Garcia.

Mourinho was very happy, but when he was looking for a seat in the stands, he found that many Sporting Lisbon players were also here. He smiled at Mozel and said: "Look at these guys, boys from Benfica It's much more relaxing."

Mozel shrugged. "Your words would be more convincing if we weren't here."

"When you cooperate during training, say that Sporting Lisbon's people are crazy, and they would rather watch tennis than go to training."

"Okay, okay, just don't provoke them too much."

...

The next day, Mourinho came to the training ground with a tennis racket. Under the puzzled eyes of the players, he smiled strangely: "Boys, I only found out when I went to watch the Masters Cup final. Those people watched the group stage without losing a game, do you know what that means?"

Seeing that everyone below was staring wide-eyed, Mourinho raised the beat and danced a few times.

"It's because they think they don't need to practice at all. They can take us at the Stadium of Light without doing anything. The difference is just a few goals. I also heard their players betting that Kurten will score after a few wins. How many of us, I did a rough calculation.

According to them, at least Enke had to walk into the goal and pick it up six or seven times.So I thought, if we lose the Lisbon derby, then I might as well change my career to play tennis. What do you think of my swing, is it standard? "

"Coach, throw away the racket, I think you will have your head shaved even in the community-level amateur competition!"

"Don't worry, coach, we won't let you be humiliated with backspin by Aunt Liya who sells pork."

"I think it's better to let the guys from Sporting Lisbon retire to play tennis. Everyone said, how many of them should we beat?"

"Two or more, I bet a meal at the best restaurant in Lisbon!"

"I really didn't pursue it, I bet four!"
