Midfielder

Jose Mourinho, a name that many Benfica fans are unfamiliar with. No one knows where this guy came from. Even those who are familiar with Portuguese history can only vaguely remember that this guy's family was once very famous in Portugal.

But that was only because this family had a good personal relationship with the great Portuguese dictator Salazar. However, that was half a century ago. How many people still remember this now, not to mention that it has nothing to do with football.

The only connection between this guy named Jose Mourinho and football is that his father was once the national goalkeeper of Portugal, and he was quite famous. In addition, he was once a well-known coach in the Portuguese Super League and led many teams, but this has nothing to do with Mourinho.

Those reporters once investigated this strange guy. He used to play professional football, but almost no one knew what he had done on the football field. It is impossible for anyone to remember a guy who couldn't even get into the first team.

As for Jose Mourinho's coaching experience, it was only a few years in Spain. He didn't even coach a game in Portugal, so everything here was completely unfamiliar to him and others.

And Jose Mourinho spent more time as a football translator in Barcelona, ​​Spain. His task was to help the head coach communicate with the players. What people praised him for was probably his language talent.

Even if he had been an assistant coach in Barcelona, ​​he had only worked there for a short time. A month ago, he had resigned there, or he was abandoned by Barcelona because he didn't get along well with the head coach of Barcelona, ​​so he was unemployed.

Such a guy is now going to come to Benfica to be the head coach, and it is at the most difficult time for Benfica. Now everyone is wondering whether this guy has some kind of ulterior motive with Azevedo, so he has this opportunity.

However, no matter what, the fans who support Benfica now have to accept the fact that Benfica's current head coach has been replaced by this unknown guy, who has never been the head coach for even a day.

Whether these fans are willing to accept this fact or not, it cannot be changed. This assistant coach who came back from Spain has become the only savior that Benfica can count on now.

Savior? This can only be the self-consolation of those optimists, at least those media reporters will not think so.

Some people still remember that when a Portuguese reporter went to Barcelona for an interview a few months ago, he heard this ignorant guy criticizing the current Portuguese football league there.

Now these media reporters obviously will not let this guy go, who made him publicly release dozens of people on the first day of his appointment. In the history of Benfica, no guy dared to treat those uncrowned kings like this.

Not only the fans are not optimistic about this novice, including those reporters and some officials of the club, they are not optimistic about this guy who is only in his thirties. In the coaching business, on-the-spot command experience and good football connections are sometimes very important.

But this guy who has only been an assistant coach in Barcelona obviously does not have these conditions. He is so green and pitiful in the position of coach, and you can even call him a novice.

Now the only thing Mourinho can be proud of is his age, because he is destined to be the youngest local coach in Portugal, but Benfica fans are not willing to see this at all. They even want the German who was driven away to come back, at least the old guy is much more famous in the football circle than this guy named Mourinho.

It is no wonder that those angry fans pointed at Azevedo's nose and scolded him in public when Benfica was handed over to a novice. They believe that this deal is pushing Benfica to the road of destruction, so they want to vent their dissatisfaction.

"That guy will definitely ruin Benfica! He and Azevedo will both be murderers!" I don't know how many people are roaring like this, although they don't know what kind of abyss Jose Mourinho can lead Benfica to.

Doubt, strong distrust, this is everyone's attitude towards Benfica's coaching change this time. They don't believe that guy can lead Benfica out of the quagmire at all. He may only make Benfica worse and worse.

And this guy's first game as coach has proved this. Jose Mourinho's first game came three days after he took office. Boavista scored the only goal of the game in just 60 seconds. This rookie's first performance can be said to be a complete failure.

Boavista only had one threatening shot in the whole game, but this shot went in one minute after the start, and then the whole Benfica began to charge aimlessly, committing fouls with an unbalanced mentality. By the end of the game, they had been sent off and received 5 yellow cards.

This was a complete failure for Benfica. Although Boavista was the Portuguese league champion, the team's main players were almost sold out. Even so, Benfica still lost, and the loss was shameful enough.

After the game, all the reporters pointed the microphone at this guy named Mourinho. They were all waiting to hear what this guy would say. Everyone was guessing what kind of high-sounding excuse he would find to cover up such a failure.

However, this guy's opening remarks made everyone dumbfounded. Mourinho did not make any comments on the process of the game at all. The failure to win the game was the responsibility of the head coach. He seemed to have no intention of making excuses and put all the responsibility on himself.

The press conference after the game was very simple, because Mourinho only said two sentences. The first sentence was that he was responsible for losing the game because he did not arrange the position for the free kick defense. The second sentence was that he would adjust the current Benfica team lineup and would draw players from the youth training base and the second team to supplement. Then this guy just patted his butt and left, not even leaving reporters a chance to ask questions.

"What happened here just now?" I'm afraid no one at this crowded press conference could answer, because from the beginning to the end of the press conference, they didn't even have the opportunity to interrupt. They could only watch the guy walk in, then say two words, and then walk out again.

I don't know if this is the shortest press conference in Benfica's history. At least those reporters don't know how to report back. What can these two dry sentences mean? I'm afraid it can only mean that this guy has really been to this room.

"This uneducated rookie!" It is estimated that this sentence has been repeated countless times in the hearts of every reporter, but they can't do anything to that guy. After all, this is Benfica's territory. No matter how dissatisfied the reporters are, they can only vent in their own small piece of land.

A failure, two speeches, this is Mourinho's opening show, which has nothing to do with excitement, but makes people speechless.

If a game and a press conference have made this guy very unpopular, then his next move will not anger those uncrowned kings, but the Benfica team.

Because on the second day of the game, Mourinho announced his decision to all the players directly on the training ground. Six main players of the first team were directly thrown into the second team training by him, and Mourinho will draw six people from the second team and the youth training system to fill this vacancy.

Those guys who were adjusted down almost expressed their dissatisfaction in front of Mourinho. They didn't know why they were demoted. Did they have to take the blame for losing the game?

"You only participated in one of the three-day training and quit halfway, but your figures appeared on the entertainment page the next day. Don't think that I don't know the relationship between you and the team doctor. It's not what a professional player should do to fake an injury. This team is now under my charge. If you are dissatisfied with me, you can go directly to the chairman. Now you just need to follow orders. There is no difference between the team and the army. Either obey or get out!"

Mourinho's silence in the first three days gave these people too much courage, but when this guy broke out, everyone already understood that everything they did was seen by this guy. Now either obey or get out.

A thunderous suppression, Mourinho did not leave any face for those lazy people. Since Benfica has fallen to this point, he doesn't intend to continue to indulge anyone here. You can't do it? Okay, get out immediately, someone can take over your position.

When Mourinho began to clean up Benfica on a large scale, Lin Yi and Edward were staring at a fax in the office.

"You, report to the first team. This is the club's decision. I, will also go with you and continue to be responsible for your training." Edward looked at the fax from the first team and didn't know what to say.

It's not that he didn't know what happened in Benfica recently, but he never thought that this little guy he trained in the youth training base would enter the eyes of the new head coach of the first team. It's really a ghost!

Lin Yi might be more confused at this time. First team? Are you sure? I'm still an apprentice now. . . Is this illegal employment of child labor?

The two of them stared at the fax on the table at the same time, like a pair of... idiots.
