white tour

Jesús sat up, touched his crumpled suit jacket, and took out a half pack of cigarettes from his pocket.After his wife and daughter died in a shipwreck, he became addicted to smoking, but not long after becoming Antonio's manager, he quit smoking again.

However, today, 10 years later, Jesús actually picked up this bad habit again.He lit it up, took a deep breath, and soon choked to death.

"Cough cough cough...Damn it! Even you bully me!" Jesús wiped away the surging tears and stuffed the cigarette into his mouth again.

In the second round of the Champions League group stage, Real Madrid played at home against Legia Warsaw from the Polish League. This is the first time the two teams have met.In this game, Zidane made a rotation, and Danino, Asensio and Antonio all got the chance to start.

In today's game, Antonio has been a little restless, and the external performance is that he can't get excited.Although the running was not as active as before, and the midfielder did not have a particularly eye-catching performance, but after all, the opponent was an unknown European team. Antonio finally used a hat-trick of assists to silence the Real Madrid fans who were struggling to boo him. .

In the 60th minute, Antonio was substituted by Vazquez, and Zidane called him to sit beside him.

"I feel a little bit unmotivated today? Is it because the league with Betis is too hard?" Zidane spoke softly, with just the right amount of concern on his face.

Antonio shook his head. He was still worried about the agent at home, but felt that there was no need to tell the head coach about such things.

Zidane didn't have to ask for a reason. After all, it is normal for players to have ups and downs. They have maintained a high level of performance, which makes people worry that they will suddenly break the string. He just wants to provoke a It's just talking.

"How does it feel to kick the front midfielder?"

"It's much simpler than the lower back!"

Zidane laughed, saying yes, for a striker, offense is of course much simpler than defense.

"The front midfielder generally has three tasks: direct delivery of shells, tandem attack in the frontcourt, and sudden cold arrows. When you are on the front line, you dare to pass and shoot, but once you retreat to the midfield, you seem to only pass the ball Of course, I am not saying that you are not doing well, it is just that you can do better, but you have limited yourself. I want to know, do you still have this awareness? The midfielder does not just mean a Organizers, when through balls, crosses, and crosses from the side cannot open the situation, they can completely help the team open the situation by inserting or long-range shots.” The last league game with Betis gave Zidane With new inspiration, he began to think about whether the BBC could rely on stacking technical midfielders to dilute the offensive weight of the core players when the BBC team was in poor condition but they could not be replaced casually. Flower more.

Antonio didn't understand what the head coach was thinking. A few days ago, he was guarding against him and didn't want to give him too many opportunities to play. Why did he suddenly encourage him to step forward and participate in the offense more today.

In fact, the reason is very simple. The previous debates made Zidane limit Antonio to the position of Ronaldo's substitute. It was not until a few days ago that he realized that this player can do more than just score goals.

Casemiro is absent from the game, only relying on the team's defense that often rises to the sky, Real Madrid's defense will definitely have problems. The team scored more goals.Modric was also injured, and the substitute Isco was still a bit worse than him, and he couldn't take on the responsibility of the playmaker for the time being.

The international match day helped Ronaldo regain his form. As he got older, he gradually began to transform in the direction of a "fortress in the restricted area".The media completely forgot how they criticized and ridiculed Ronaldo before. They called on Zidane to improve Bell's tactical status to adapt to Ronaldo's technical transformation.

However, it is impossible for Zidane to do this, because the recent state of the Welshman is really mediocre.

The trident state in the frontcourt generally requires them to start, and Real Madrid has to play the offensive football that people expect. Zidane can only use his brains in the midfield.In this game against Legia Warsaw, Zidane directly arranged a 4-1-2-3 formation, increasing the team's attack power by adding a midfielder.

Real Madrid now has seven midfielders, Casemiro and Modric are injured, Kroos is not a modern attacking midfielder, and Kovacic has been trained according to Casemiro's template.And once Ronaldo plays the midfielder, according to his playing characteristics, he will block the route and space of the two wingers.In this way, Asensio and Isco are the only midfielders who can conform to Zidane's new tactics.

And in the case of double matches a week, Zidane has to rotate. His idea is to let Asensio play with Antonio, Isco with Kovacic, Kroos' position remains the same, and Casemiro and Mo In the absence of Delici, try to run two lineups.

Today's Champions League game is an experiment for Zidane. Although Legia Warsaw's limited strength is not enough to become a touchstone for Real Madrid, the tacit cooperation between Antonio and Asensio is also a bright spot in Zidane's view.

Now Ronaldo's state is gradually picking up, and Real Madrid ushered in two more victories after four consecutive draws. Zidane, who is in a good mood, is also interested in mentioning Antonio.In fact, Zidane also had the idea of ​​​​training Antonio to the fulcrum of the penalty area before, because he has both the ability to hold the ball and the ability to play the ball.It's a pity that the most important physical confrontation is not enough, otherwise the French would really be interested in trying it out. After all, it would be a pity to put a striker with such a high scoring efficiency on the bench.

"Thank you coach, I see." Antonio is a striker anyway, and after he has aggressiveness, he will definitely not lack the desire to shoot, but today is a special case.

"Well," Zidane touched his chin and began to think about the ninth round of the league in five days.The tough-style Athletic Bilbao should be able to cause trouble for Real Madrid, and then we will see if the new team can play the expected effect.

Antonio was also thinking about his own affairs. He reviewed a series of details when Jesús returned home, and still felt that something happened to the manager rather than simply being unwell.

Feeling worried, Antonio couldn't sit still, but this was perfectly concealed by the expressionless face.

As soon as the whistle sounded for the end of the game, Antonio walked quickly towards the player tunnel.

Asensio and Morata, who came off the field, were a little puzzled when they failed to find their friends. They stepped into the locker room and just met Antonio who was carrying a backpack and was about to leave.

"Antonio, are you leaving so soon?"

"Well, I still have something to do, so I'll go first." With a wave of his hand, Antonio left in a hurry with his head bowed.

"He didn't take a shower today!" Asensio's eyes widened.

Morata didn't know whether to laugh or cry. He tapped Asensio's forehead with his fingers and said helplessly, "Did you only notice this?"

"Huh? Is there anything else? Could it be..."

"Okay, don't destroy your pitifully small brain, go get something to take a bath."

"Oh!"

He rushed home as fast as he could, and looking at the house with no light at all, Antonio was a little scared.He opened the door of Jesús' room, and was instantly suffocated by the strong smell of smoke.

"Cough cough cough..."

"An... Annie... why are you back?" Hearing the voice, Jesus' face was full of panic, and he quickly kicked the cigarette butts on the floor under the bed.

Frowning, Antonio turned on the light, pushed open the window, and then walked towards Mr. Broker who still held the "physical evidence" between his fingers.

"Annie, don't stay in this room, it's bad for your heart and lungs!" Jesus crushed the still burning cigarette with his fingers. He wanted to push Antonio out of the room, but realized that he smelled When it was the thickest, he took a few steps back and fell down on the bed.

"Leon, are you okay?" Antonio sat beside Jesus.

Suddenly, Jesus' eyes were red.He looked at the apple tree that he managed to raise so big, and said with a choked voice, "Annie... let's terminate the contract!"

"What did you say?" Antonio was completely stunned by the news. He never thought that the matter would be so serious.

Jesús felt as if something was strangling his neck, looking into those beautiful blue eyes, he said with difficulty: "I said... let's terminate the contract!"

Saying those five words again, everything seemed a lot easier. Jesus lowered his head and stared straight at his fat fingers.

"I'm not a good agent, not only can't help you, but also hurt you! Before, I blamed you for missing several games and ZARA's endorsement due to illness, but now I remember it after being reminded by others, your The portrait rights are all owned by Real Madrid. If you accepted the endorsement at that time, we would have breached the contract, and Real Madrid can take us to court. Lopetegui called me about being selected for the national team, but I missed it I made this call and didn't call back. There are many, many... It's all because of my mistake that I caused you so much trouble. So I think, you should find a more professional agent to help you deal with it various affairs."

"I am lucky enough to meet you!" Sucking his nose, Jesús pretended to be relaxed and said: "I used to achieve nothing, and I had nothing after the death of my wife and daughter. At this time, I was very lucky to meet you. You. Even because of you, I can meet famous people like Monchi, Castro, Sanchez, Mendes..."

"Mendez? You met him today? No, it was the day before yesterday, the date at noon the day before yesterday!" Antonio stood up with sharp eyes, "He wants me to be a player under his command, right?"

Jesús raised his head in astonishment, he didn't expect that Antonio would easily follow the cause and effect out of him just by showing a little telltale.
