fat man who can't play football

Chapter 51 Mentor
In the days without Cook, the fat man deeply felt the importance of the captain.This also made Fatty realize that it is imminent to find a good mentor for Cook, which is related to Leeds' promotion and promotion.

Fatty racked his brains for this mentor candidate after the game against Birmingham.

A name gradually came to mind, Claude Makelele.A low-key defensive master, the Frenchman, who is about to turn 42, has just experienced a terrible coaching in Ligue [-].

On May 2014, 5, the Ligue 24 team Bastia Football Club announced Makelele as the head coach of the team and signed a two-year contract at one time.

Unexpectedly, in less than six months, Makelele was dismissed due to the team's poor record.

After November last year, the Frenchman has been unemployed and has been shut down everywhere. His poor coaching debut made many teams discourage him.

The reason why the fat man is interested in Claude is not because of his coaching ability (the Frenchman is a good head coach), but because of his continuous high-profile performance under the "Magic Bird" Mourinho when he played for Chelsea. Defensive show.

There is no doubt that he is a very revolutionary player. The Frenchman with a height of only 1 meters plays a defensive midfielder on the court. Many people think that he has redefined the position of defensive midfielder.

The former France international was a remarkably consistent and powerful player, capable of smothering his opponents from anywhere on the pitch and remaining dominant for nearly all minutes of the game.

Fatty of later generations watched his game and felt that he was like a moving city wall that could never be conquered.Just imagine it like this, you are facing a terrifying opponent who can poke the ball off your feet from any angle, and you have to play [-] points every time you hold the ball. What a painful mental torture.

If he can teach Cook by precept and example on the training ground, the fat man in the picture will feel beautiful just thinking about it.

Fatty thinks that the big monster Cook, who has always been valued by FM, has not been kicked out in later generations. It is entirely because of his inaccurate positioning. The coaches always want to train him into a B2B midfielder who integrates offense and defense when they see his excellent ability to play the ball. .

But such an idealized setting was ruthlessly beaten by reality, and Cook later became a "four different images", unable to attack or defend.

Fatty didn't want such tragedies to continue, and decided to suppress his desire to attack and realize his defensive potential first.

Cook has always listened to himself, and will definitely understand his good intentions for him.

Now the question is how to coax Makelele over here?After all, the Frenchman is still dreaming of being a head coach, would he be willing to come to a Championship team to assist Fatty?

The fat man raised his eyebrows and made up his mind: the French must feel the importance they attach to his coaching ability, and he will die for his confidant.

Fatty once again flew to France in order to show his respect for the French.

For the first time in his life, Fatty will see a football star that he could only see on TV in the past. Thinking about it, he is a little excited.

The two parties agreed to meet at a private restaurant in Paris.

When the fat man arrived, what he saw was a modest gentleman (although a bit dark) with a smile on his face all the time. The fat man could still feel the terrifying energy hidden in his short and sturdy figure.

Because the Frenchman has played for Chelsea for five seasons, Fatty can communicate with him directly in English.

"Hi, Claude, I've kept you waiting."

"Uh, Steve. I've only been here for a while, too."

"Claude, I think we both know each other's purpose. Let's get straight to the point."

"Claude, I am very optimistic about your ability to train players. Even though you only have coaching experience in Bastia, in just six months, I have seen you make Bastia's midfielders grow rapidly. .”

Everything is the fat man's gamble, he has no energy to pay attention to the performance of a Ligue [-] relegation team.

Fortunately, he won the bet again.

The arc of Makelele's mouth widened.

"Honestly, Steve. Very few people noticed it, most said Bastia's poor performance was because of my coaching ability. I always wanted to get another chance to prove myself."

"Come help me, Crowder. I'll give you the position of assistant coach. If our team performs well, I don't think many teams would mind giving you the head coach's hands."

Hearing the word "Manager (head coach)", Makelele's eyes lit up instantly.

"Uh, Steve. I appreciate how much you value me, but what can I do for you?"

"You can have a lot of privileges in Leeds, all the midfielder training is led by you, you can even interrupt training games to correct their running positions. And Leeds United has a lot of hardworking lads, you can take full charge of their extra training .”

"Of course, if you have any opinions on the team, you can directly mention them to me. After all, you have been in a big club and must have a lot of advanced experience."

The last flattery made Claude very comfortable. The Frenchman has always been proud of having played for Real Madrid, Chelsea, Paris and other giants.

After retiring, the Frenchman will often refer to these glorious resumes and stories of the year when he participates in TV programs.

"I have to admit, Steve, you have a lot of vision."

The fat man gave Claude a signature Piggy laugh.

In this way, the two parties reached a preliminary cooperation intention with bright smiles, and the director Salerno will be responsible for the follow-up contract issues.

Due to the recent decline in Fatty's performance, the Italian did not forget to add insult to injury.

"Steve, I have to warn you kindly. The team seems to have a bit too many coaches."

"Director, you have also seen the poor defensive performance of the team. 26 goals have been conceded in 37 league rounds. The Frenchman is very important to improve the team's defense, and Chairman Cellino will not want to be in the box. See Leeds being beaten into a sieve."

"Well, I shouldn't have talked too much."

"No, director. I should thank you for your concern."

The two smiled at each other.

Leeds will face the challenge of the leader Bournemouth on January 1. Before that, Leeds United had a full ten days of training time.

This intermission period of the league is a timely rain for Fatty, and the team can start to improve the problems that have been exposed recently.

Lirola gradually won the unanimous approval of the coaches during the training, and the fat man decided to give this young man a reward: he will be included in the list of 18 players for the next game.

In just one day, Leeds negotiated a contract with Makelele, a two-year assistant coach contract.

After Fatty got the good news, he began to look forward to Makelele's arrival.The fat man can't wait to see the wonderful scenes of the French fucking the miserable teenagers of Leeds.
