Midfielder.

Chapter 20 Infighting
Every morning the sun will not stop its rise into the sky because of Lin Yi's melancholy, and the sound of Lin Yi's heavy breathing will still be heard on the Benfica training ground on time.Mourinho did not break his promise, he added meals to Lin Yi's training program on time.

In addition to the necessary physical confrontation and physical training, Mourinho began to try to let Lin Yi attack directly within 30 meters from the goal.

A few weeks ago, Mourinho saw the potential of Lin Yi's calf strength from the explosive test. Instant explosive power is the advantage of this little guy, but Mourinho needs to open another door for this kid. Guy is a little too condescending in some ways.

"A qualified commander should not only allow himself to vitalize the entire team, but also allow himself to be the key to unlock the stalemate in the game at critical times."

"From the day I started to follow your training and games, I rarely saw you take the initiative to shoot on the field. Yes, you can use the pass to tear the opponent's defense, but you have to be clear, don't let the pass The ball becomes a cage that locks itself in."

"If the opponent understands that you are the kind of guy who can only pass the ball, then you can easily become passive. Because they only need to stare at the route of your pass, and you don't have any ability to threaten the goal."

"If you want to open a big enough gap from your opponent, you must not only pass the ball like a knife, but more importantly, you must become a knife yourself!"

"Go in, you should be like a knife directly on the opponent's throat in the middle. Remember, there should be many ways to kill the opponent, instead of indulging yourself in the pass."

"Think about the legends of this club. Rui Costa will also seize the opportunity to give the opponent a hard time when attacking. This is a qualified midfielder. Modern football is like this. You can pass the ball. Sort out the context of the team, then you should also learn to disrupt the opponent's defensive rhythm by taking the initiative to attack."

Lin Yi nodded to indicate that he had understood the question, shot?In fact, Lin Yi can pass ghostly passes with beautiful footwork, which is enough to prove that he has a good feeling for football.

It's just that when he played in Sebatur and the broken court behind the church, he was used to directing others on the field instead of making himself a terminator. His footwork is actually not bad, but he is not yet Get used to letting yourself solve problems.

Compared with shooting, Lin Yi prefers to see the moment when his pass shatters the opponent's defense. Those surprised eyes and the goalkeeper's desperate eyes are his favorite.But he understands that what Mourinho said is right, he does have a paranoid about passing the ball when he is attacking.

This is a disease that needs to be cured. . .

"One hour of shooting training every day, try to shoot from multiple angles, practice with both your left and right feet!" Mourinho's voice seemed a little stiff, but Lin Yi fully understood what the serious-looking guy in front of him was doing.

When a person wishes you well, he will demand you with the strictest standards. If you are a puddle of mud, no one will care about your future.Although Lin Yi muttered all day long that the uncle in front of him was a tyrant, he never stopped his training.

Mourinho seldom teaches a player one-on-one like this, except that he did this when he was the coach of the youth team in Portugal's low-level league, but now Lin Yi, a kid who has just stepped into the threshold of professional football Let Mourinho pick up his old job again.

He needs to let this kid understand that knowing how to pass the ball is a must for an organizer, but going forward at critical moments will also be a key to winning the game, and sometimes proper selfishness is also a necessary choice.

Mourinho is very optimistic about this little black-haired guy, although he often mutters incomprehensible languages ​​when he looks at himself.

But Mourinho has never been stingy about cultivating this kid, not only for the team's performance, but also for the kid's future.

Lin Yi does not lack talent or skills, but what he lacks is practical experience and systematic training in professional football.The little guy looked more natural on the football field, and the most primitive things in football seemed to flow in his veins.

But there are too many things that cannot be cultivated, and the wildness in that kid is one of the reasons why Mourinho pays so much attention to him.

Dare to fight, even in the group confrontation, Lin Yi also showed a very fierce side on the court, he is not cute at all at this time.

He never let the football be broken under his feet easily, unless the defender directly brings him down very fiercely by relying on his physical advantage, otherwise it is really difficult to snatch the football from his feet.

Even if someone can intercept Lin Yi's dribbling, he will immediately turn around and counterattack. Mourinho found that this kid has a very heavy South American player style when stealing the ball.

Lin Yi believed in his first judgment very much. He calculated that he might not get the ball back immediately, but he would definitely make it impossible for you to continue dribbling.

If Lin Yi is still like a gentleman when he organizes the offense, then he is more like a vicious robber when he intercepts others in the midfield.

This kid has extremely strong self-confidence. Maybe Mourinho can often see this characteristic of Lin Yi from himself.

They are all the kind of people who are extremely confident in themselves, but one is on the court and the other is off the court. They all firmly believe that the choices they make are correct.

This little guy has an unyielding energy, which is what Mourinho admires the most. A person who likes to bow his head and admit defeat will never become a big man.Just like when Lin Yi was dribbling the ball on the field, whether you win or lose, you have to raise your head and look at all your opponents.

Lin Yi never likes to admit defeat, just like when he used to practice football with that man, he likes to see the short smile on the man's face and the gentle eyes of his mother when he wins the game, that's why he would The reason to keep playing.

On the football field, he has memories of all the happy days in the past, but from the day he chose football for a living, he understands that he has to take on more responsibilities, and career often represents responsibility.

But now, he understands why he chose football. Seeing the green lawn and hearing the cheers of the audience, his blood is boiling.

"It was a kind of madness that made the blood vessels burn." Lin Yi can still recall the cheers of tens of thousands of people in his match with Ferreira.

From an orphan who was forgotten in a corner to an idol who was cheered by tens of thousands of people, Lin Yi understood what he should do in that short 30 minutes.If he still wants to hear that crazy shout, he has no other choice but to sweat more on the training ground.

If you want to be successful, then you must grit your teeth and do everything well from now on. Lin Yi understands that he has no way out, so he can only grit his teeth and move forward.

Every day such training will start in the early morning and last for two to three hours, and then continue after the team's regular training.

Even those old guys who have played football for more than ten years are a little dumbfounded at this kind of training intensity, but the black-haired kid seems to have not noticed it.

Mourinho stimulated Lin Yi with such a ripening training method. He believed that the little guy had the ability to accept this kind of indoctrination with a large amount of exercise.

Lin Yi's training continued frantically, but every time he played in an official game, Mourinho was still firmly stuck within 30 minutes.Even if Lin Yi sent out another assist in three games, he couldn't snatch an extra minute of playing time from Mourinho.

"30 minutes is the limit. If he is forced to extend the time in the game, it will only do harm." For a little guy whose body is still in the development stage, Mourinho still needs to protect him as much as possible. But can't make a regular weapon.

I really don't know when I will be able to start the game. Every time Lin Yi sits on the bench and watches his teammates run on the field, he will think this way. He is eager to run on the field, but now it seems that The head coach has no such plans yet.

"Waiting for the opportunity... I hope I can do better." Every day during training, Lin Yi would say this to himself. This is not a reminder to himself, but a spur. He needs to use practical actions to prove that he can do better. arrive.

Perhaps it was the killing of Ferreira at the Stadium of Light that brought back the confidence of the Benfica people. Perhaps it was Lin Yi's interspersed running and distribution of the ball on the field that brought more vitality to the team's offense. Benfica won all four games.

And Lin Yi has also begun to be favored by more and more Benfica supporters, especially some female fans. There is no way, that kid has a handsome face, and he is too easy to be accepted by women, even his orphan status Will receive more love and affection.

"That kid has a very deceptive face... those women are too crazy..." All the Benfica team members were speechless watching Lin Yi being chanted, hugged and kissed by the female fans frantically , This is really a guy who makes people jealous.

"Save... my life... ah..." Lin Yi swore, he absolutely didn't like being envied like this, damn it, what's there to be excited about being molested by hundreds of aunts in their 30s?Put you in this group of women, can you get excited?
The consecutive victories have allowed Benfica to climb from the middle of the league to fourth, and now they are only 5 points away from the top-ranked Sporting Lisbon. Many newspapers have begun to say that Benfica's recovery is unstoppable. A derby will be quite worth looking forward to.

Lin Yi has contributed 3 assists so far, and the pride of another Sporting Lisbon team has also scored 4 goals in 3 games. The contest between the twin stars has been vaguely exerting strength.

The most proud person now is probably Mendes. All his work has been focused on the city of Lisbon. The twin stars of Cristiano Ronaldo and Lin Yi have made him see the rewards of his bet.

But one thing that is very troublesome now is that Chris's contract has already been finalized, and Lin Yi, a young guy who was promoted from the youth team, has not yet reached a working relationship with the club.

It’s not that Mendes himself doesn’t want to talk about this issue, but that Benfica has no one to receive him from top to bottom. Everyone’s thoughts have been spent on the presidential election. As for the future of a 15-year-old kid, there is not much for him. cared.

Who knows if someone else will be on the rostrum when he wakes up tomorrow morning, who knows if the next chairman will still value that black-haired kid so much.He is just a star of hope, not a famous star.

Whether he can stay at Benfica as expected by others is uncertain, who knows if there is a new chairman, will he start buying guys who are already famous.

Mendes really had nothing to say about this kind of work efficiency. He was helpless, and he even had to explain to Lin Yi why the work contract hadn't been finalized yet.But fortunately, the kid is now on the training ground with Mourinho, and rarely asks about these things.

"You are a professional. I don't ask too many questions. I am only responsible for playing well. I believe you will take care of everything. Anyway, you are my agent. I leave everything to you." Lin Yi understood that he was not within his power, so he might as well leave it alone,

The time when Mourinho was booed while standing on the sidelines has become less and less. Coach the giants.

The requirements of the fans are actually very simple, win the game, win the championship, and play beautifully.As long as you can fulfill their wishes, then they have the opportunity to worship you and lift you to the sky.On the other hand, it is the kind of encounter that Mourinho has enjoyed in the past few weeks, and it is simply worse than death.

The better the dark-haired little guy gets on the pitch, the more it proves Mourinho's unique eye for people.Both of these guys have earned respect in their own way, and now the Stadium of Light is filled with more cheers than curses.

Although the team's performance began to get better and better, the troubles of the Benfica team were far from over. As a giant, it was always full of conflicts of interests.Problems on the court can be settled with both feet, but the players cannot control some factors off the court.

Benfica's presidential election has reached the final stage, and the competition for the chairmanship between Villariño and Azevedo has reached a fever pitch. Behavior has started flooding the club.

In the words of those Benfica fans, "It's a fucking civil war, two idiots fighting to destroy Benfica."

But they have no choice, it is a game of politicians, these ordinary fans have no way to influence anything, they can only wait and see helplessly.

Mourinho never wanted to involve himself in such club affairs, he just wanted to bring the Benfica team to a quiet game.

Winning the championship is what a coach should do, but some people will not let this new guy go, because he has become a stumbling block for others, and now those people want to use various methods to remove him from the position of head coach Kick off.

The main contender for the chairmanship, Villarinho, has long regarded the guy signed by Azevedo as someone in the opponent's camp. The better the Benfica team's record, the more unfavorable the situation for him.

He has publicly stated in the media more than once that a team of Benfica's status should be equipped with an excellent coach, not those guys without any experience. Mourinho is obviously not among the ranks of excellent coaches .

Regardless of whether Mourinho admits this fact or not, he has been included in Azevedo's camp, even if he has not said anything.

The strongest fortresses are often broken from within, when Benfica mustered their courage.A disgusting force is dividing them again, and even makes everyone feel disgusted.

The players have inevitably been disturbed by this unstable factor to the mood of training and competitions. No one knows what the final result of the chairman's election battle will be.If a new chairman is elected, everyone is anxiously waiting for where these players will be tomorrow.

"This damned infighting!" Mourinho cursed this kind of power struggle in private. Lin Yi had heard such curses with his own ears, but he didn't know how to deal with that serious uncle. to say this.

Although Lin Yi still doesn't feel much about this kind of power struggle, he still has to compete with various training subjects every day, and has to avoid the crazy entanglement of the aunt's fan club, but he can already see from Mourinho's frown See too much worry.

"What can I help you?" Lin Yi asked Mourinho coldly after the training. No matter what he could help, he hoped that this uncle would be less troublesome, even if he could drink a glass of beer with him, but the premise There must be someone who will sell it to him.

"The filth in the adult world has nothing to do with you. Your task is to train and compete, and ignore the messy things outside." Mourinho rejected Lin Yi's kindness, waved and left the training ground, but the back was in front of him. Lin Yi looked a little melancholy in his eyes.

Adult troubles, alas. . .Lin Yi looked at the guy who was going away, he could only sigh and said, now he only hopes that these annoying things will pass away quickly, instead of disturbing others endlessly.

"It's all about money." Lin Yi spat hard on the ground, as if to spit out the haze surrounding the Benfica team.

The damn weather seemed to be making trouble at this time as well. The fine raindrops hit Lin Yi's body, but they couldn't dispel the restless feeling in Lin Yi's heart.

No one can see clearly the future of Benfica. . .Everyone is cursing this damn election, including Lin Yi. . .

A future of unknown outcome. . .To everyone. . .
