football's most handsome

That's right, it's not that Juan hasn't contacted Cristiano, but he doesn't know what's wrong with the kid. He suddenly doesn't answer his calls or messages. Juan feels something is wrong every time, even A few times I wanted to go to his place to check the situation...

But every time, he held back.

It's not that he doesn't want to go, but after all, he is also the head coach of a team. Even if he went to see him as a friend, if he is discovered by the media if he is a little careless, whether it is against Deportivo, Manchester United, It will have a very bad influence on Ferguson, Cristiano, and himself.

He knew that the position he was in now really couldn't make him act rashly, so he could only call and send text messages. If the other party ignored him, he had nothing to do.

Seeing that Juan's expression was not right, Tom immediately changed the subject with discernment: "Juan, Deportivo played very well in today's game. Do you have anything to say?"

Juan tidied up his emotions, smiled and said, "There's nothing to say."

"..." Tom opened his mouth, smiled wryly and said in a low voice, "Boss, save yourself a little bit and tell me something to let me go back to work?"

"I'm very satisfied with the performance of the players tonight. Deportivo put out all their fighting spirit and tried their best..." While talking, Juan stopped, "That's all."

"Huh?" Tom was dumbfounded.

"Save some for me to say at the press conference, after all, there are only so many speeches prepared each time." Juan waved his hands helplessly, and Tom wanted to laugh when he was stunned, but he still nodded: "Congratulations Morientes scored twice on the pitch today."

Juan narrowed his eyes and looked at him: "I'm serious, Tom..."

"Ok?"

"Sure enough, you shouldn't be in the mixed interview area, but it's more appropriate to go to the press conference." Juan smiled and waved his hands, "I'm leaving first, come quickly."

"Huh??" Before Tom could react, Juan had already left.

Magath has been accepting interviews by the side. He was surprised to see that Juan got rid of the reporter so quickly. He quickly ended the interview and walked to his side quickly: "So fast? I thought you were going to There's a lot to say."

"Maybe there are many, but I didn't stay here to talk about it." Juan replied calmly, and to be honest, he is not in the mood to talk nonsense with these media at all.

Although it is obvious that it is now going to the road of commercial football, and Deportivo does need commercial football to enrich its financial pool, but he himself is very indifferent to reporters.

In the year at Manchester United, he had already been made things difficult and troubled by the reporters, so even if he knew that the reporters used it well, it was a sharp sword, but Juan was still a little discouraged.

... What's more, what Tom said just now broke his good mood directly, and made him lose interest in anything immediately.

So when he was on the road, he could still chat and laugh with Magath, but when he sat in the news interview booth, he lost the interest of chatting and laughing, but he sat here out of an attitude of being responsible for the team's image .

"I am very satisfied with Deportivo's performance today. Our players tried their best to achieve such results today. Bayern Munich is a very serious opponent, but we are a little bit more lucky today."

Regarding the term "lucky", Juan Diaz has publicly denied it before, but when he used it this time, it was more of a joke. After all, everyone is watching the game. Yes, it was tough enough, and Deportivo did have some extra luck.

But even in such a relaxed environment, some people will still ask some unpleasant questions, such as about Portillo's performance on the pitch today.

As soon as Portillo was mentioned, Juan wanted to frown again. After all, Portillo gave him a huge shock on the court today, so when the reporters mentioned him, Juan hesitated for a while .

"Portillo has no problem. The most important thing for him now is to recover his form. Since this season, Portillo has always helped us score goals."

He was very factual. After all, Portillo scored a lot of goals in Deportivo this season. Especially in the first half of the season, the entire Deportivo's goals were almost dependent on him. And Diego Forlan two people shot.

In the second half of the season, although the number of goals decreased due to the arrival of Morientes, he still maintained a relatively high efficiency, but at the end of the season, Portillo's state was slightly worse. There was a bit of a drop, but the media could still hold their breath, and they never brought it up to talk about it.

After all, no matter what happens, it is possible for players to be good or bad. After all, no one is perfect. If they can always maintain their peak, there will not be so many regrets in football. Similarly, if everyone can maintain At the peak, some "old and strong" players in football will not be so respected.

"And I personally don't pay attention to his mistakes during the game. Players always make mistakes when they are playing on the court, but I care more about what our entire team can do and how well we can do as a whole. , rather than single out a player to blame him."

Juan's statement made Magath on the side cast an appreciative look. After all, as a head coach, he really doesn't want one of his players to be criticized by media reporters or fans, even if these things are originally The players may have made some mistakes on the pitch as well.

And Juan said so, obviously he has made his own decision on Portillo's mistakes on the court, instead of just venting his anger and disappointment, which is really good.

However, after this question, Juan was obviously in a bad mood. Facing the questions of most people, he just randomly chose two brief answers, and then left early. The reporters in the audience looked at each other in blank dismay.

"Uh..." Someone finally couldn't help but whispered to his colleagues, "Didn't Deportivo win the game today? Juan should be very happy today..."

"Yeah, you obviously said that you were very happy when you first got off the stage?"

Seeing his colleagues discussing in front of him, Tom couldn't help but want to smile wryly.

He is very smart, of course Juan was very happy when he came out, but after the two questions he couldn't see, Juan's mood seemed to change like a big dive, he is not a fool, Of course I know it's my own problem.

But what about Cristiano Ronaldo?

Tom always felt that he could still have a remedy at this time, and the only measure was on the Manchester United boy, so he quickly evaded the attention of others and called his colleagues in the British headquarters.

"Hey, it's me...give me all the recent news about Cristiano Ronaldo, I want it no matter what it is! I will explain to you tomorrow what I want these for...Okay! Trouble!"

After all, they are members of the news media, and their speed is still very fast, so when Juan was sitting in the player's bus and meditating, he received a message from Tom.

He glanced down at the sender, frowned and put the phone in his pocket first, then raised his head.

"I don't know what you mean, Javier."

The players have already boarded the bus at this time, and there is still enough space in the player bus, so in order to show respect for the coaching staff, the players here in Deportivo sit in the back, while the coaching staff sit in front.

But when he got into the car today, Juan couldn't help raising his eyebrows.

Generally speaking, there is a person sitting next to the seat he sits, and that person is Javier Portillo.

When he saw that person, Juan subconsciously felt a little headache, but he sat down with a frown and watched the person in front of him ask the sentence just now.

Portillo's attitude towards this was also very direct, he raised his eyebrows: "What do you mean?"

Deportivo's victory at home today made the fans very happy. They gathered outside the bus and sang loudly, everyone's face was shining.

Deportivo, the first time in history to enter the final of the Champions League!

Now it is a commemorative moment for them, so the fans sang and danced around the bus, happier than winning the championship. They don't think too much about the results of the game now, at least for today Tonight, in their hearts, Deportivo is already the champion!

In the car where the fans looked up, the players were also very excited, waving at them through the glass of the bus one by one, every time was enough to push the atmosphere to a peak.

However, at the front of the car, where the curtains were drawn, Juan and Portillo were sitting quietly, both looking straight ahead with calm expressions.

At this time, even the coaching staff would not choose to disturb them. The coaching staff headed by Allen also went straight to the back at this time and joined the players' celebration. Anyway, they didn't want to get mixed up Ann's thing...

After Juan frowned and looked at him for a while, he finally couldn't help but also said: "You should go celebrate with them at this time, it's finally reached the final."

Portillo chuckled: "Does it have something to do with me? You have seen my performance in this game."

"I think your performance in this game is pretty good." Juan coughed lightly, "I'm not trying to comfort you, I really think so."

Portillo's performance today can indeed be called good. Although he didn't have an assist or a goal, but in terms of involving the defense line, he contributed a lot. If he didn't involve Bayern Munich's defense line behind him, Maybe Morientes didn't even have a chance to lift his foot and shoot.

So although there is no performance in terms of statistics, Portillo can be said to have contributed a lot in this game, and he is not in a "sluggish state" as others said.

He just restrained his aggressiveness and tried his best to do what Juan arranged for him-4-3-2-1 lineup, with Morientes at the top. Morientes makes space to attack.

Portillo chuckled: "In the eyes of those who understand football, it is so, but in the eyes of those 'knowledge football emperors', what do you think?"

Juan was taken aback for a moment, and then understood.

What Portillo is talking about can be regarded as a type of people. Those people only pay attention to the statistics of the game and the excitement on the field. "So-and-so is exhausted", and at the same time, when the head coach announces the tactics, he will show that he knows everything to point things out, but they are actually half-baked, they don't understand anything, they are just laughing. .

"I know those people... but I didn't expect you to pay attention to what these people are saying." Juan's mood was also a little relaxed at this moment. He coughed lightly and looked at the people around him with a smile.

Professionals in general football don't pay attention to these jumping clowns. Even if it is a "tactical encyclopedia" like Dean of Sky Sports, they just listen to it and laugh, and let him go. After all, those people are not really on the field. People who have worked hard in the world, they want to command the rich with just a mouth, it also depends on whether they have the ability.

Most of the head coaches are mature people, and the players are not stupid. They don't pay much attention to this kind of people who can only move their mouths and hands. That's why Juan finds it interesting-Portillo actually cares about this?

Portillo shook his head solemnly, and pointed to it mysteriously: "I don't care about those people, as long as I can hide it from them."

Juan froze for a moment, the smile on his face disappeared without a trace.

He was not stupid, of course he knew who Portillo was talking about in an instant.

Florentino, president of Real Madrid.

Although it is impolite to say so, Florentino really doesn't know much about football, otherwise, which chairman would sell Redondo, force Makelele away, not pay attention to youth training, and even bring a group of veterans of his own team. A sad transfer after a good start and a good end?

No chairman who understands football will allow any of the above to happen.

Which team will drive them away when they have Makelele and Redondo?Out of your mind? ?Even if they have reached the end of their competitive career, their experience is already magnificent enough. If they are willing to stay in the club, it will be an indescribable wealth to the club.

The veteran's experience and veteran's ability, for a team, this is accumulation.

Juan now fully understood why Portillo didn't show any intention of attacking on the field today. Even though the football had been passed to him several times, he just didn't attack, even a few times. When he was already standing on an excellent offensive point, he still passed the football away.

He seems to understand a little bit now...

Understand a ball! ! !

Juan pressed the throbbing veins on his forehead and said in a low voice, "Javier Portillo..."

"Yes." At this moment, Portillo, who had explained everything clearly, had no psychological pressure at all, and gave him a big smile. Seeing him smile like that, Juan couldn't vent his anger I could only hold back in silence, and after a long while, I finally uttered a weak question.

"Aren't you planning to go back to Real Madrid?"

Polti was stunned for a moment: "Who said that?"

"Your performance told me so." Juan said slowly, "At that time you said, this is not a dream..."

"Oh, that?" Portillo was full of joy at this moment, because he was actually able to meet Juan, and because Juan seemed to be unable to recover now.

You know, he has known Juan for a long time, but this is the first time he has seen Juan like this!If his own rationality told him not to be too proud or he would be revenged to death, he would have taken out his mobile phone to record this scene.

"Don't you think it's like a dream? That Real Madrid actually bowed to us!"

Portillo lowered his voice and said so, Juan was stunned for a long time.

"...You find it unbelievable, so it seems like a dream?"

"Yeah, otherwise what else could be the reason?" Polti coughed lightly, "Actually, I didn't expect that Real Madrid has already bowed to me in just one season... Hey, you said Floren When will Tino call you back?"

Juan was stunned for a moment, and he didn't know why when he recalled Florentino's meaningful smile when he received the King's Cup that day, his heart skipped a beat.

"This...maybe there will be such a day." Juan said vaguely, then frowned, "So the offer from Real Madrid?"

"Of course I directly refused. I have no idea to go back to the bench." Portillo said directly, he still knew very well that the current Real Madrid is not the Real Madrid he was familiar with before, and there is no good fruit for going back at this time eat.

And he knows one thing more clearly - in Deportivo, he is the absolute main force, but what about returning to Real Madrid?He must be an absolute bench, a proper water cooler watchman, there is no doubt about it.

In front of strikers like Michael Owen, Raul, Figo and Ronaldo, how many chances does he have to stand on the court?

He didn't know, and he didn't want to know, the last person who went back was Morientes. He had used himself as an example to teach a heavy lesson to all the Castilla youths who were eager to go back to Real Madrid.

At this time, Real Madrid wasted their youth when they went back. Although they want to go back, what is the use of going back at this time?

For their own career considerations, no one will go back.

Of course, there is another point for Portillo, that is, with Juan, he can stay comfortably here, without having to think about the interpersonal relationship in the locker room, and he doesn't have to think about who he should pass the ball to.

There is unity here, harmony from top to bottom, a calm locker room, and a lot to learn at the same time - Portillo is not stupid, of course he can tell the difference, whether it is a game or what he is doing, he can always learn from his surroundings. Learned something from the boss.

Maybe I can learn it in Real Madrid, but in that atmosphere, let alone learning things, I guess even walking is always with head down.

Portillo explained his reasons to Crackling, and after he finished speaking, he even felt a little thirsty. Juan twisted a bottle of water and handed it to him without saying a word. Portillo took it and raised his head and drank it in big gulps.

"Pfft...cough cough cough cough!!!"

Suddenly there was a heart-piercing coughing sound from the front, and the rear staff who were happily interacting with the fans outside suddenly turned their attention to the front—in fact, they didn't pay much attention to the outside , but most of them are secretly paying attention to the situation ahead.

So they heard the sound of "bang bang bang" palms slapping their backs-to be honest, they felt a little chest tightness and back pain when they heard this sound, especially Aimar, who was weak in physical resistance, almost rolled his eyes. This kind of filming has long been overwhelmed-and their young coach Juan Dias calmly said with some smiles: "Drink slowly and no one will grab you. If you like it, you can still drink it here." have……"

???

The players looked at each other, not knowing what Juan said, but Allen came to his senses, shivered, and his expression was a little frightened: "Speaking of which, when Juan got into the car, he brought a bottle of mustard with him. water……"

Suddenly, the players felt a chill.

Anything good, wasabi watered down? ? ?

"Amen, it's better not to mess with the boss in the future..." David Louis drew a cross with a solemn face, and the others nodded with sympathy.

It is to avoid provoking Juan a little less, who knows if Shi Shiran has already prepared his last move and is just waiting for someone to fall into his trap? !

Juan looked at the flushed Portillo with a heck of a face, and patted him on the shoulder.

Young man, it's too early to fight him!

Seeing that the two people in front also started arguing, the whole car let go of their hands and feet to play with each other, and sang along the way back to the training ground to disband.

The smile on Juan's face didn't stop until he was lying on the bed after talking on the phone with Casillas, but he found that he couldn't fall asleep.

He stared at the ceiling of his own room, and after a long silence, he gritted his teeth and took out the phone, and sent a message with such force that he wanted to crush the phone.

Cristiano Ronaldo, text me back, or give me a break.

After posting this sentence, Juan already felt that he was already a little stubborn at this time. Why are you competing with the mobile phone at this time of night?

Especially Cristiano on the opposite side doesn't know what he is doing at this time. He insists on someone to give him a message at this time. Isn't this difficult for others?

So after struggling for a while, Juan finally gave up directly. After all, it was useless for him to struggle at this time. If Cristiano didn't send him a message no matter what, he couldn't do anything.

You can't just rush over and grab that awkward child and just beat him up right now?

Ugh……

Just as Juan put down his phone and was about to go to sleep, his screen was already on. He subconsciously looked down and was taken aback for a moment.

Message from Cristiano.

"If I get kicked out, will you take me in?"

When he saw this sentence, Juan froze for a moment subconsciously, then frowned.

what's the situation?

He flicked his cell phone and was about to send a text message, but a call came in - it was from Cristiano.

Juan was silent for a while, then picked up the phone.

"Cristiano?"

The person on the opposite side was silent for a while, then he laughed: "Juan, we still have one round of league here, and this season is over."

Juan was taken aback for a moment, and then he heard the person on the other end of the phone cough lightly and say, "After this season is over, I haven't thought of where to go on vacation."

"..." Although he didn't know what the kid wanted to do, Juan still echoed: "I know a few good vacation spots, let me introduce them to you?"

Juan does know a few good places. Besides, even if Cristiano wants to go to other places, he still has a Raul to ask, so he didn't hesitate at all when he said this. of.

"..." Cristiano on the other end of the phone was silent, and Juan felt as if he heard the sound of teeth grinding?

"What's wrong?" Juan always felt that something was wrong.

"...I want to say," the Portuguese teenager finally lost in front of his nervous seniors, and said through gritted teeth, "Do you have any fun in La Coruña?"

"Ah?" Juan was stunned for a moment, and then immediately realized that the children in their family were having a fight and wanted to come to him, but they really couldn't say it.

After realizing this, Juan was a little dumbfounded, but still coughed lightly and said with a smile: "Of course, there are many fun things in La Coruña. If you want to play, we can play together."

Of course, what he said was purely to coax the children, how could they have time to play together?Deportivo's season is not over yet, and now they are preparing for the Champions League final. Even if he comes at this time, no one will accompany him...

As a result, Cristiano seemed to have taken advantage of something on the phone, and happily answered, okay, the two of them had a lively chat as if they had forgotten the inexplicable one-sided cold war before, and hung up the phone When it was time, Juan sighed softly and glanced at his mobile phone.

In fact, he had read the message Tom had given him since he came back.

In that message, the recent news about Cristiano was mentioned, and it was very comprehensive. The Thief King is a journalist, and he still has a lot of basic skills that belong to a reporter, so at this time, he is only describing the process of these things. And as a result, no personal feelings were added.

He also knows that his personal feelings are not very important at this time, but the impartiality of the news is more useful to Juan, so he summarizes what happened to Cristiano recently to him without saying a word.

In fact, the kid hasn't had much to do recently.

——The conflict with Van Nistelrooy on the training ground is the biggest thing. Tom also started with this incident and told Juan about the next things one after another.

For example, in the following time, Cristiano and Ruud van Nistelrooy were completely at odds, and neither of them could play in a game, but even if they played in a game, they still had their ego as professional players Ethical, but also a little cooperative.

But Juan also knew that this was only on the surface, and it was only on the court.

What's more, even on the court, even if Ferguson is shocked, they still have a little friction during the game, especially when it comes to holding the ball.

After all, Ruud van Nistelrooy will stay longer here at Manchester United, so when two people ask for the ball at the same time, most people will choose to pass the ball to Ruud van Nistelrooy after hesitating for a moment, but Cristiano is not discouraged, after all It's only his first season, and he spends most of his time actively running.

However, this does not mean that these two people are considered calm when they are on the court. If Ferguson was not on the sidelines of the court, these two people might have already fought. Nice situation.

Juan also knew that at this time, Van Nistelrooy and Cristiano were basically meeting each other, and Van Nistelrooy was too much after all, how could he use his father who had just passed away as an example? ?

With this incident as the core, many things have happened at Manchester United. For example, the fans have begun to show different reactions, and the unconditional support for Ruud van Nistelrooy has also weakened at the beginning, and the top management of Manchester United seems to have a little All in all, as far as Juan himself observed, he definitely did not "get kicked out" as Cristiano himself said.

What's more, Sir Alex is such a precious boy, how could he let him leave like this?

So Juan was still very calm, waiting for the children to arrive in La Coruña.

And the kid came a little sooner than he expected - the next night, in Manchester United's last game of the season, Cristiano Ronaldo rang the bell at Juan's house with a goal he scored. door, showing a big smile.

"Hey, I'm here to play!"

...To be honest, Juan was a little confused.

He really couldn't think of why this person would appear at this time. After all, generally speaking, if they have a game tonight, Manchester United will disband on the spot. This kid should also rest for the night and come the next day, so that Juan can still He entrusted it to a friend he knew...

But at night, there is really no way.

Juan could only let people into the house. The child rubbed his head and looked at his house with a smile: "Wow, it's so big!"

"Isn't the house you rented in Manchester smaller than here?" Juan was a little helpless, but most of his emotions were still happy. After all, he hadn't seen this kid for a long time. "The guest room has been cleaned up for you. Let things go."

Fortunately, he had already anticipated the child's swift action tonight, and had asked the nanny to clean up the room early, otherwise Cristiano would have slept on the sofa today.

"Don't let me sleep in the cloakroom?" Cristiano smiled, and was very worried about the first time he stayed at Juan's house, although at that time it was because Casillas was there, and Juan lived in a rented apartment. He came to a small apartment, but he also remembered it for a long time!

Juan coughed lightly, feeling a little embarrassed. After all, he was not with his sweetheart at that time. He thought he could take advantage of it once more, but he wronged his junior...

Fortunately, Cristiano just complained casually. He boarded the plane and flew over just after the game in the middle of the night. He still had the fragrance of a fresh shower on his body. Juan took him to put the things down, and then frowned. : "Did you get noticed by the media when you came?"

"The media? I don't care, anyway, those people follow me all day long." Cristiano didn't care. In fact, he was well protected by Ferguson in the first season, and he basically didn't say anything in front of the media. However, there are still a lot of advertisements, so there is a lot of exposure, and there are a lot of paparazzi around.

"Have you gotten used to it after only one season?" Juan thought it was very interesting. After all, he remembered how Cristiano looked when he faced the media for the first time. Stand in front of the camera and express yourself - Some people are naturally attracted to the camera, like Cristiano.

"It's something that can't be helped..." Cristiano was a little depressed, "Jorge answered some commercials for me... Ah, not as many as you answered, it was tiring, but I still like it The reason for these activities is that there are more paparazzi.”

Juan chuckled and rubbed his head.

Because he just took a bath, the child's curly hair is soft and soft on his head, and it feels very comfortable to the touch-I have to say that Juan still likes his little curly hair very much, it has been like this since before, Cristiano's curly hair can be said to be Juan's first impression of him.

Cristiano subconsciously avoided Juan's hand. After all, it had been a long time since he had his hair rubbed like this. Usually, he used hairspray to deal with his hair. After a few layers of hairspray, anyone who touched it would be a hand of oil.

When he was at Manchester United, Juan did touch his head subconsciously, but he was soon forced by his greasy head to get rid of his habit.

But now, Cristiano doesn't know if he forgot, and he didn't get a little hairspray when he came here. Suddenly, this is Juan's chance!

Satisfied, he stroked the little curly hair a few more times. Cristiano tried to avoid it, but he could only fight back. The two of them laughed and quarreled on the bed.

If anyone in La Coruña was here, he would be dumbfounded many times seeing this scene.

That's Juan Dias!How could he fight so recklessly with people on the bed? !
