[football] walk side by side

Cristiano smiled and looked over with a dangerous expression.

Just when Cyril was racking his brains to think about what to do (flicker) and what to do, Shen Wei's voice from downstairs saved him just in time——

"Cyril?" A woman's voice came from downstairs, and there was still a smile in her voice: "Mr. Mourinho is here and said he wants to talk to you about the transfer, come down quickly. "

Siril immediately breathed a sigh of relief, deeply feeling that her husband's visit was timely.He pretended not to hear the other party's questioning, and changed the topic in a logical manner: "Mister seems to have something to do with me, let's go down and talk about it first?"

Cristiano: "..."

So what else can he say! !

Cristiano, who was about to make a big move, had no choice but to swallow his stomach full of resentment. He glanced at Cyril, who was obviously relieved a lot, snorted softly, and reluctantly followed along.

When the two came down the stairs, Mourinho was already sitting on the sofa in the living room. When he heard the sound from the stairs, he looked up and the eyes of the two met in the air.Mourinho's gaze stayed on Cristiano for a moment, then he lowered his head and took a sip of the tea in his cup.

Once again, Cristiano, who was disgusted by his current head coach's expression, was very calm. He even greeted Mourinho calmly: "Sir."

Mourinho nodded, no joy or anger on his face.Although some accidentally saw Cristiano here, at this moment he frowned slightly, but didn't say anything.

"Sir." Cyril still had a slight smile on his face, and he sat down opposite Mourinho: "If I knew you were coming, I would have picked you up at the airport."

"No need." His eyes shifted to Cyril, and Mourinho's expression softened a lot: "There are not many Premier League holidays, and it's so easy to take a summer break. You can rest at home more, and it's about half an hour. What is there to pick up?"

He said it was unnecessary, but he was obviously happy in his heart.Cyril smiled slightly and didn't expose him.

"I'm here this time to talk to you about the transfer." Without chatting a few gossips, Mourinho got right to the point. At this point, he paused, turned his head and glanced at With a glance at Cristiano, the intention to drive people away is very obvious.

Cristiano really wanted to stay and listen, but he also knew that since Mourinho had specially transferred to Porto and Cyril to discuss the transfer, then this transfer must not be as simple as many people imagined.

Therefore, he stood up quickly: "I'll go up and take a nap, you guys talk."

Shen Wei on the other side also refilled tea for a few people, then thoughtfully left the space for the master and apprentice, and turned to go to work in the kitchen.

Suddenly, only Mourinho and Cyril were left in the living room.

"What do you think about the transfer?" Mourinho asked straight to the point.

Cyril was not surprised by this conversation.

Perhaps in the eyes of many people, with Cristiano as a partner and Mourinho as a mentor, he should undoubtedly transfer to Real Madrid. It is said that at this point, Mourinho understands him far better than outsiders.

It was precisely because of his understanding that he did not take the transfer for granted like outsiders. Instead, he flew to Porto to ask Cyril's opinion face to face.

In European football, the transfer of players, especially top players, is a very serious matter.

For a player, there are many things to consider in a transfer: good or bad club, teammates, manager, weekly salary, team tactics and team position.

Cyril may not care about the weekly salary, but he also has other aspects that he is unwilling to compromise.

"I don't accept being anyone's understudy."

Mourinho snorted softly: "I don't think Real Madrid has that much money, so they bought a high-priced substitute."

Cyril smiled, and then he continued: "I don't accept any position other than the core of the organization."

The difference between the organizational midfielder and the organizational core is a world of difference.

Cyril's string of requests seems unremarkable, but as long as these two sentences are put together and combined with Real Madrid's current situation, it is easy to understand.

Under Mourinho's Real Madrid, the team's tactics are still based on defensive counterattacks.But the problem is that in the tactic of defensive counterattack, the midfielder is the core of the organization, but in the position of the midfielder, Real Madrid already has Kaka.

Mourinho did not speak.

The empty living room suddenly became quiet, but Cyril didn't feel nervous at all. He watched Mourinho calmly, even with a faint smile on his face.

Knowing that Cyril had already seen it through, Mourinho rolled his eyes and stopped pretending to be serious: "Who told you that Real Madrid's tactics next season will be defensive counterattacks?"

Cyril was slightly taken aback.

"If we continue to defend, even if Florentino agrees, I am afraid the fans at home at the Bernabeu will not agree." When Mourinho said this, his tone was almost self-deprecating.

Cyril was silent.

Indeed, even though Cyril is not a Real Madrid fan, he has already heard about the harsh requirements of the Bernabeu. Before Mourinho, the Italian coach Fabio Capello led Real Madrid to the league championship twice, but this did not happen in the end. Can change his fate of getting out of class.

In the 2010/2011 season, although Real Madrid led by Mourinho achieved relatively good results compared to the past, it is undeniable that Real Madrid's style of play is far from being as good as in previous years, let alone compared with Barcelona.The problem facing Mourinho is not only the long-awaited league title and Champions League title, but also the style and tradition that Real Madrid has built over the years.

If you want to secure a stable position in Real Madrid, winning is not enough.

Knowing this, it seems that it is not difficult to understand that Mourinho will make such a change.

In the eyes of many people, Mourinho seems to only be defensive and counterattack, and he is almost stubbornly obsessed with defensive counterattack.But in fact, this impression is completely a misunderstanding.Whether in the league or in the cup, Mourinho often responds differently according to his opponents, which is by no means as simple as a simple defensive counterattack.

Pushing the timeline forward, Porto, which was pushed to the top of Europe by Mourinho, didn't play the same offensive football?

Besides...

Cyril thought of the scene he saw when he accidentally turned to the La Liga newspaper.

Last season, "Aspen" once ridiculed Mourinho that he "doesn't know how to attack football at all". Real Madrid fans were also quite dissatisfied with the team's style of play, which made Mourinho impulsive. In the national derby at that time, he reversed the previous defensive counterattack and chose offensive football instead-everyone knew the final result, and the 5-0 tragedy happened on that day.

Cyril did not ask Mourinho whether Real Madrid can still play offensive football. This is not the scope of his worries, and he has never questioned Mourinho's decision: "So, what is my position?"

"The midfielder." Following Cyril's words, Mourinho quickly recovered his usual calm, and he quickly said: "I need you and Alonso to form a double midfielder. Enhance Real Madrid's interception ability and creativity in the midfield. Of course, the specific tactical changes need to wait until the training camp for further observation."

The most important problem has been resolved, and Cyril didn't hesitate any longer. He said straightforwardly: "Then that's it. I will leave the other specific transfer matters to Jorge."

From beginning to end, neither of them talked about topics such as weekly salary. First, it is impossible for Real Madrid to treat players harshly in terms of salary, and second, Cyril doesn't care about that.

The conversation between the two ended here, and the rest of their own agents went to wrestle with the club. For Cyril and Mourinho as players and coaches, it has little to do with it.

At the same time, inside a hotel in Madrid, Mendes stopped outside a business meeting room, then opened the door neatly, with a natural smile on his lips: "Long time no see." His eyes fell on On the man opposite, "Mr. Florentino."

……

After talking about transfers in a few words, Mourinho only stayed for a lunch and hurried on the plane. For the players, the summer break is a pure vacation time, but for the head coach, they The work is far from over.

After sending Mourinho to the airport with Cristiano, only Cyril and Cristiano were left on the way back.

The two seemed a little silent along the way. Cristiano was still thinking about the photo, while Cyril was thinking very seriously. Based on Cristiano's memory, he probably had forgotten everything about the morning... right?

"Cyril, where do you want to go?" Cristiano's voice came faintly from behind Cyril before he could put his idea of ​​running away into action.

"..." Cyril: "I suddenly remembered that something was dropped at the airport."

"Really?" Cristiano raised his eyebrows: "Why don't I remember what you brought when you went out?"

Cyrillic:"……"

Say good three years old!The promised child will forget it if he doesn't hold a grudge!Have you ever seen a kindergarten student with such a good memory!

"Okay, don't try to change the subject anymore, this time I won't be fooled by you if I say anything—" Cristiano put his hands on Cyril's shoulders, with a bad expression: "Be honest and strict, resist Stricter."

Knowing that he probably couldn't escape this time, Cyril sighed: "Okay, what do you want to know?"

"Why didn't you tell me that the man in the photo was your uncle?" Cristiano recalled the scene at that time, and he was still a little depressed. God knows he would go crazy when he accidentally learned about Shen Xianxuan's identity.

Cyril looked calm: "You didn't ask."

Cristiano: "Then why do you still say that..." I misunderstood.

He didn't finish the sentence.

Because he suddenly remembered the scene at that time——

"Like and life are two different things. I don't like to turn liking into a relationship casually. If a relationship is destined to end from the beginning, then the best way is not to start."

"Why... do you think it's destined to end?"

"...Probably because he changes women every three days, no matter how you look at it, he is an unreliable guy?"

Change a woman every three days.

Change to a woman.

people.

Cristiano: ...Is it too late for him to apply for a file load and restart?
