Smiling Proudly

Chapter 172 The new season is approaching
In the end, after Wang Yi came on the field, with two assists, Real Madrid lost the game cleanly.

Although he lost, Benitez was still happy, at least he did not disappoint the chairman.

But the interview after the game made Benitez not in a good mood.

"Mr. Benitez, how do you evaluate that Wang Yi can assist twice as soon as he plays, if Wang Yi can play earlier, can Real Madrid win the game?"

Benitez was quite happy when he heard the first half of the sentence. After all, Wang Yi performed well, but the second half of the sentence made Benitez immediately realize that this question cannot be answered directly, otherwise he will definitely fall into the problem of choosing Bell or Wang Yi.

So I took it with an extremely official answer.

But how could the media let Benitez just hide like this.

"Mr. Benitez, Bale had no results in 6 games in the preseason, but Wang Yi has scored 4 goals and 4 assists. This kind of performance is so good, then the first round of La Liga will be played. Wouldn't you choose to let Wang Yi start?"

The hook is straighter, and Benitez will not be fooled.

He directly announced that the press conference was over, without a direct answer, but this kind of thing made the reporters able to write close-ups.

Originally, the press conference after the official game or before must be attended and there is a certain time requirement. This is stipulated by UEFA. Those who do not participate will be punished accordingly. However, there are no relevant requirements for friendly games. .

Benitez, who was familiar with the rules, naturally left.

Only Real Madrid's press officer was left to clean up the mess.

After the Audi Cup, the Real Madrid team returned to Madrid and officially started preparing for the new season in Madrid.

On August 8, Real Madrid will face Sporting Gijon in the first round of the league.

A very weak opponent, with such an opponent to open the game, Benitez is in a good mood.

The start of a season is particularly critical. If the game is played well and smoothly, the fans or the management will have more confidence in the head coach, but if the game is not played well, it will immediately fall into various rumors.

Especially since this is Real Madrid.

Benitez sits in his office, looking out the window at the training ground.

This is Real Madrid Sports City, the training center for the first team.

The offices of the Real Madrid first team are located next to the training ground.

Benitez's office is very large, with a large floor-to-ceiling window, which can easily see the training ground outside the window.

Benitez has just returned from the training ground. For most coaches, training with the team is a must.

Just think that Mourinho is used to training with the team all the way.

But Benitez will let the physical fitness coach take full responsibility when the team is training physical fitness, and he himself will go back to the office to deal with some things.

There is a TV set directly opposite the desk.

Benitez likes to listen to some sounds when he is working, but unfortunately he does not know what is called white noise.

But turning on the TV and using the sound from the TV as the background sound is a habit of Benitez when he is working.

Benitez looked at the names written down in his notebook.

Several bigwigs on the team have already talked one-on-one.

Although some of them are not ideal, but the biggest task of coming here, Bell is very ideal.

Benitez remembered what Florentino said to himself when he found him.

Hope to make Gareth Bale a real top superstar in his own hands.

To make Bell a superstar, it is easy to say, but difficult to say.

Simple, that is, just let Ronaldo abdicate and Bell take over, so the core of Real Madrid can't be regarded as a superstar?But this situation is obviously bullshit among bullshit.

What ability does Bale have compared to Ronaldo.

Benitez, as an old man who has been on the green field for so many years, how could he not know that, in this case, Benitez's idea is to let Bello get the ball, and Ronaldo himself is also a top player in running without the ball players.

But in this case, you need to sacrifice the midfielder.

Benitez is very clear about this.

Originally, this would have been able to meet the chairman's request.

But now there is still the problem of Wang Yi. Wang Yi's performance on the court is also better than Bell, so how should the two choose?
Isn't this the hardest question?
The most important thing is that he is not the kind of strong head coach who can bargain with the chairman. At this time, Benitez is extremely envious of Mourinho. When Mourinho was in Real Madrid, he was a monopoly Transfer power, this is an ability that previous Real Madrid coaches have never possessed, this is too strong.

Benitez received a notice from Florentino a few weeks ago that the following players must return to the team, and the following players can be operated by Benitez.

Benitez saw that there is only one player who can operate, Casemiro, and he also noted that he can only be rented out and cannot be sold.

Well, it's just that I can't control any of them.

How could Benitez not be angry.

When he was in Liverpool, although Benitez did not have all the power to transfer, but Benitez had the right to veto and 70% of the decision-making power. The transfer is directly decided by Benitez, and the amount of money must be discussed and decided with the club's top management.

However, Benitez had not encountered a situation where the player he wanted to buy was not bought at Liverpool at the time.

After all, he also liked high-quality and cheap players at that time.

But only when he came to Real Madrid, Benitez felt that he was really just a coach.

No, not even the head coach.

How can the head coach of a team still need to follow the chairman's arrangement when arranging the formation?
However, you have to ask Benitez whether he regrets coming to Real Madrid.

Benitez is now sitting in an office chair.

"I definitely don't regret it, this is Real Madrid. How many coaches can refuse Real Madrid."

What's more, Benitez has played for Real Madrid.

This kind of plot is too deep.

Let Benitez get in, unable to extricate himself.

Benitez turned his attention to the next name on the notebook, Wang Yi.

"Hey, forget it, just say a few words."

Wang Yi came to the office, he was notified a few minutes ago that Benitez wanted to talk to him.

After a few minutes, he came out again.

"What's the situation, Wang Yi, the coach told you in less than 10 minutes."

"No way, it's so short."

Wang Yi nodded with an ugly face.

Carvajal didn't speak, but patted Wang Yi's shoulder.

"How can there be 10 minutes, not enough time for a song." Wang Yi was muttering in a low voice.

Suddenly, Wang Yi had a very bad feeling.

Is it.
