football's most handsome

Time flies, and it's May in the blink of an eye.

This May is destined to be the most uneven May in football.

In May, the major leagues are suspended, and the UEFA Champions League is about to end. It should have been a calm and tense end of the season. At this moment, everyone’s eyes are all focused on the World Cup. Move up.

The first is the resignation of Florentino at the end of April. The sad ending of the founder of the Galaxy Battleship has obviously explained a lot of facts. Calderon came to power with high spirits, and at the same time shouted out bold words——

He wants Real Madrid back to the top!

Similarly, he wants to bring players like Kaka, Ronaldo and Messi back to Real Madrid!

Juan wanted to sneer when he heard that two people in La Coruña were directly in each other's campaign slogans.

Although he was a little angry at the beginning, he soon thought of another aspect-now there are rumors in football that Real Madrid will hire Juan Diaz to coach.

And it seems normal for Juan Dias to recommend some of his best players in the past to the new chairman?

Besides, Juan Dias has a charm enough to bring players around.

After such a toss, Deportivo may not be willing to sell to Real Madrid no matter who they sell to. After all, this is equivalent to going around and returning to Juan's hands. Rendoiro will not allowed this to happen.

...Although everyone knows that it is impossible for Juan to coach Real Madrid, this does not prevent Deportivo from refusing to sell players to Real Madrid, does it?

What's more, Deportivo is now in a quagmire.

Deportivo Rendoiro, the chairman of Deportivo, was exposed to match-fixing and taking bribes. He will be arraigned in court in the near future. Once the crime is established, Rendoiro must immediately step down as chairman and serve his sentence. The right is self-evident.

These two incidents have caused an uproar in La Liga (0 wave, almost everyone is eyeing Deportivo's current coach Allen and assistant coach Fernando Redondo, both of them have maintained Silence, many people are very smart, and they went to the Portuguese national team to interview Juan.

Juan also thanked guests behind closed doors, and did not meet anyone. Just showing such an attitude is enough to make people dream about.

However, compared to the other thing, these two things in La Liga are not enough. This incident broke out in Serie A.

— the phone door.

It is of the same nature as the Rendoiro incident, but it is greater than Rendoiro and his La Coruña in terms of scope and severity.

Individual teams in Serie A, headed by the Serie A giants Juventus, supplemented by AC Milan, Roma, and Lazio, used to control the selection of referees to fight match-fixing. Since the team’s phone calls were recorded as evidence and exposed, the media reported it extensively. "Phonegate" to name this sensational event.

Such a bad incident has brought huge losses to Serie A. The specific content of the recording was exposed in early May. In the next few days, the chairman and vice chairman of the Serie A Football Association resigned, the Juventus board of directors resigned collectively, and the referee in question was disqualified from law enforcement. The general manager of Juventus announced his withdrawal from football, and the chairman of the Italian Referee Committee also resigned sadly.

The entire Serie A has suffered a major blow, and it is almost devastated. However, this has allowed the other four major leagues to discover a lot of opportunities.

Especially La Liga, which has been following behind and eyeing the throne of the "World's No. [-] League".

Now they also have a lagging Deportivo chairman Rendoiro, but compared to the situation in Serie A, this side is much better.

Real Madrid and Barcelona are not involved in the two giants, and the rest of the teams are basically the same. The suspects are some of the La Liga teams. The initial points of the league; if the circumstances are serious, a huge fine will be relegated to play the game.

La Coruña is obviously one of the more serious cases, but the punishment is not severe, because from the beginning to the end, the only person who did it was Rendoiro.

"In good conscience, I have never seen such a mad chairman." Tom scolded indignantly in the newspaper, "Leaking his team's starting lineup and formation to other teams? No wonder Deportivo followed suit. Almost every game in the game hit a wall, I said how could there be such a coincidence in the world, all teams know how to restrain Deportivo?"

"Aspen" is also very distressed: "This is the most insane case of match-fixing in the history of modern football. I also have to say that Rendoiro is crazy. He does not deserve to continue in Deportivo. Sit down in the chairman's seat!"

In the end, Rendoiro resigned sadly before the end of May, and Anthony Perez, Deportivo's second shareholder, took the chairmanship with the support of everyone.

"We succeeded the boss." Anthony even sighed a little when he called Juan, "To be honest, I always thought that I just came here to go through the motions and just sit here and help you count the money. A year or two passed, and I actually sat on the chairmanship of the club."

"Is it exciting?" Juan chuckled on the phone.

"It's too exciting, I'm a little dizzy now." Anthony replied, "Boss, why did you play such a big game, and it's so sudden, I can't stand it!"

"What do you want to eat? Change your position and count the money." Juan replied with a light cough, "At most, you just spend more time on public relations, right? Other than that, your job is still the same as before. of."

"What you said makes sense." Anthony replied with cadence, "The matter here in Deportivo has come to an end, and I will leave the aftermath to me. You can enjoy the game to the fullest!"

"Then I'll trouble you." Juan smiled and hung up the phone, waiting to take a bath in a good mood.

The person who lives in the same room with him is Nani. The 19-year-old boy is very excited about being selected for the national team for the first time. He jumps up and down almost all day very happy. At the beginning, he and Simao lived together. However, Scolari thought that Simao's temperament should be able to overwhelm Nani, but Simao was accidentally injured and ended his national team tour early, which caused Scolari a headache for a long time.

Originally, according to Scolari's idea, since Nani was produced by Sporting Lisbon, then just a few of those who were also from Sporting Lisbon came to match. However, there was an unexpected joy in the middle of Juan, so Nani and Juan was assigned a room.

Everyone is happy, except Nani who wants to cry.

The contact time between Nani and Juan is not very long, but Juan has also been his small captain for a period of time-when he was in the youth echelon of the Portuguese national team.

Originally, Nani thought that those days had passed, after such a long time, how could Juan no longer be so cruel?

However, Juan told Nani with the facts that this is not the case.

This thing is more brutal than ever...

Every time Nani faces Juan, he feels very psychologically stressed. Of course, he also knows that these psychological pressures are actually frightened by himself. Juan himself may not feel it at all, but he still feels very nervous every day. Seriously trembling with fear.

But after taking a shower today, Nani found that his team leader seemed to be in a very good mood?

So Nani looked at him and called out cautiously: "Juan, I'm done, you can go take a shower."

"Okay." Juan put down his phone and got up, paused and smiled, "That's right, Nani."

"What?" Nani originally wanted to sit down, but he jumped up almost immediately when he heard Juan calling him.

Juan smiled all over his face: "Could you please call Ricky, Edel, Captain, Jorge and Nuno for me?"

"Ah? Oh, okay..." Nani responded subconsciously, and then watched Juan close the bathroom door.

"Suddenly ask someone to do something...Could it be, additional training?!" Nani was quick-witted, turned around and rushed out without even holding the phone, so the floor where the Portuguese national team lived reverberated. Nani's cry.

"Open the door! Open the door!!"

"I know you are inside Ricardo Elder, please open the door!"

"Captain, Captain!"

Almost the whole team was shocked by him, but Nani didn't realize it at all, but showed a "hehehe" gloating smile and said: "Juan called you, I don't know why, but he smiled very Brilliant, I think you guys are going to be unlucky..."

"Stinky boy, is that why you talk to the captain?" Figo frowned at the child's head, "You have nothing to do here, Cristiano, take him away!"

"Okay!" Cristiano is no longer the youngest member of the team. He is very satisfied with this, and he also showed the demeanor of his predecessors to lead Nani to make waves in the entire national team. It can be said that he is very satisfied. I'm very high-spirited.

During Nani's youth echelon period, there were two captains, one was Juan, and the other was Cristiano. He was in awe of Juan, and the other was much better. Nani usually played in the country. When I was in the team, I loved playing with him the most.

Figo watched the two people sit in the room and took out a deck of cards with a smile, and rubbed his temples dumbfounded.

Nani can't see it, can't they see it?The players standing here are all Deportivo players, and the person calling them is Juan, which explains something even more.

After arriving in the national team, Juan never deliberately summoned them once, and they were a little worried about this, especially now that La Coruña seemed to be in a precarious state, which made them feel a little uneasy .

But Juan has always been so calm, and none of them is in a hurry to make any drastic moves, especially regarding transfers. Some of them are completely transferable, and Anthony is even One by one, they went to the door to personally persuade them to stay.

After all, he is also the person who is favored by Juan, so the players are finally appeased, waiting for what Anthony said when he persuaded them, "the boss will give everyone an explanation."

Obviously, they waited until this time, and this time is today.

Juan was drying his hair when the men knocked on the door.

The only thing that troubles him more than everyone else is his long hair. No one understands why Juan has such long hair, especially during competitions. It can be said that besides being highly ornamental, long hair is almost Not any good.

But since coach Scolari didn't say anything, the players naturally wouldn't talk much.

"Coming?" Juan glanced at the person who came in and got up, "Sit down casually, I have something to tell you... What, is there something on me?"

Juan was a little dazed. All the people in front of him lowered their heads and didn't look at him, which made Juan a little uncomfortable. In the past, when these people showed this expression, there was only one possibility, and that was that they lost.But did they lose?

"Everyone look up, what's wrong?" Juan blinked.

"...Then what," Figo said with difficulty, "You should tidy up your clothes first..."

Juan understood, and wrapped his bathrobe a little tighter: "It's okay, captain, I won't catch a cold today, thank you for your concern."

"..." To be honest, they didn't care about it, but for the sake of their own hearts... But since they understood it this way, they wouldn't talk too much. Anyway, after he sorted it out, these people looked up.

"What's the point of calling us here?" Figo was the first to speak, he emphasized "we" on purpose, obviously he knew what Juan was going to say next, looked around, almost There is a clear expression on everyone's face.

It's comfortable talking to smart people.

Juan smiled: "I just want to say... I am back, everyone has worked hard this half season."

……

what?

Several people didn't react at first, but in the end Quaresma was the first to react. The moment he realized it, he jumped up directly: "Are you serious? You... you are coming back?!"

"That's right." Juan said indifferently, "If there is no accident, you will be able to get news from the media today or tomorrow... This is not something to be particularly alarmed about, is it?"

"It sounds like this, but it's actually quite surprising, okay?" Nuno Maniche took a breath and showed a frightened expression, "You mean you're back in Laco now Runia? In what capacity?"

"Probably...the boss behind the scenes?" Juan smiled with an innocent expression on his face.

Several people present looked at each other, and couldn't help lowering their heads and covering their faces.

... In the beginning, his junior became his head coach, which was enough to challenge his nerves, but now, fortunately, his teammates directly became the boss of his team.

I really don't know how to describe the complex taste in it...

Juan coughed lightly, feeling a little sorry.He also knew that the news he gave was a little too shocking, but he still had to tell his players earlier, lest they have no time to react, and it would not be very interesting to be tricked later.

"Don't stand still..." The room was too silent, so Juan finally couldn't help but speak again, "Well, how about we use the victory of the game to celebrate my return later?"

Figo finally spoke, but he asked something unrelated to the topic: "You mean the game against Angola on the [-]th? Are you going to play?"

"Yes, Coach Scolari said that he might start again." Juan smiled, "May I give you more advice then?"

"...You're being polite." Several people showed expressions of being overwhelmed.

However, what they don't know is that what really makes them overwhelmed is yet to come.

During training the next day, the whole team heard a bad news.

"Simulated competition within the team?" Everyone looked at each other, and then looked at Juan at the same time.

Obviously, everyone wanted to be in the same group as Juan, even Nani.

...In other words, no one wants to face an opponent like Juan!

Scolari obviously knew about this situation, but the first purpose of this game was to thoroughly test whether Juan was good enough to play, so he ignored the earnest eyes of all the players and began to read slowly. up the list.

This is a simulated actual combat match, so in the 23-man roster, only the second goalkeeper Bruno Valle got a chance to rest, and all other players played.

Scolari divided the team into two teams. Both teams were a mix of main players and substitutes. After the teams were divided, people on both sides looked at each other in blank dismay.

The Figo team uses a [-]-[-]-[-] formation: Ricardo Pereira (the first goalkeeper of the Portuguese national team); Jorge Valente, Miguel Monteiro, Paulo Ferre, Ma Co Canela; Nuno Maniche, Thiago, Petit, Figo; Nuno Gomez (Portugal vice-captain), Nani

The Deco team is a [-]-[-]-[-] formation: Jim Silva (second goalkeeper in Portugal); Carvalho, Nuno Maniche, Fernando Meera; Deco, Costinha, Christie Jarno Ronaldo, Juan Diaz, Viana; Postiga, Quaresma

When the rosters of the two teams came out, the captains of the two teams looked at each other and stepped forward at the same time: "Wait a minute, coach, if we are grouped like this..."

"What if they are grouped like this?" Scolari was still smiling.

Figo said very seriously: "I have reason to suspect that our team was abused."

Deco was also a bit overwhelmed: "Coach, we have too many midfielders here..."

Scolari laughed: "Is there something wrong?"

???

While the two were stunned, Scolari said slowly: "Actually, isn't our team training game just to find our weaknesses and then make corrections? We are strong offensively and weak defensively, so now we have formed two teams. A different team, two different styles of play and see if we come to the same conclusion in the end, that's all."

"Two different styles of play?" Figo and Deco looked at each other, and then they looked behind in unison.

In the direction of their sight, Juan was talking to Cristiano and Nani, his expression was very relaxed, Nani looked a little unhappy, but with the encouragement of Cristiano and Juan Once again, he bared his teeth and danced his claws, looking full of vitality.

Seeing him like this, Figo couldn't help sighing: "Cristiano also looked like this when he first joined the national team."

"Yes, Juan is not so cute in comparison." Deco also sighed a little.

"When the game starts, there will be more unlovable things about him." Figo glanced at Deco, "You will have to be sure later, who knows what kind of idea Juan will come up with."

"It doesn't matter...it would be great if he can come up with some interesting ideas." Deco showed a smile, "I don't care how badly Barcelona was beaten by him last season." I look forward to the surprises he can bring me later, after all, I am not in his team, and it has always been a pity that I cannot experience his 'magic' personally."

"It's a good thing you can say it so easily now, if you really go to his team, you will know how complicated your mood is." Figo glanced at him, "Also, in the first half of last season, you also I was beaten badly by Deportivo, if Juan hadn't dropped the line midway, the league champions and Champions League champions don't know what's going on with you Barcelona."

"Maybe." Deco paused, and smiled wryly, "One mouthful of 'you Barcelona', do you want to be so famous in the years after you transferred to Real Madrid?"

"There is no other way." Figo pursed his lips and ran to the rendezvous point of the two teams. "Okay, don't talk about that, let's start the game."

Deco looked at Figo's figure, the smile on his face gradually subsided, and then he sighed softly.

His Majesty the former King of Camp Nou...
