Super Marshal

Chapter 412: Never give up

"I heard that you got angry in the locker room tonight?"

After the afternoon game, I returned home just in time to finish my meal.

Every weekend of the week, Lin Xia will fly from Madrid to London to prepare a sumptuous dinner for the alpine cold, boil a pot of fragrant soup, sit quietly on the opposite side, hold her chin, and look at him with a smile. eat.

It seems that this is the one thing she is most proud of.

"Who told you?" Gao Han stopped his chopsticks, but soon he thought of it.

"Needless to say, it must be Carlos's big mouth."

Cantarello is Alpine's right-hand man. The two have been working together for four years. They are very familiar with each other and are good friends. They are also very familiar with Lin Xia. Sometimes when Alpine is busy, Lin Xia will contact Cantarello.

"He also cares about you. You have been under too much pressure recently." Lin Xia smiled.

When Gao Han heard this, he suddenly lost his appetite, put down his bowl and chopsticks, and sighed.

Chelsea have won two consecutive championships. It is reasonable to say that they should have a lot of glory. As the head coach, Alpine should be very high-spirited, but the current situation seems to be completely different.

The FA Cup and UEFA Cup decisive battle is just around the corner. Everyone knows that Chelsea's goal is to win these two championships again.

But just two days ago, in an interview with an authoritative British magazine, Abramovich stated in a high profile that the team would win four championships, otherwise this season would not be considered a success.

This makes Gao Han a little dissatisfied, after all, the most important thing now is to decompress, not to put pressure.

And Abramovich's remarks, although he attracted media attention and hype, but also invisibly increased the pressure on the team, after all, he is the owner of the team.

But this is not the point.

What really made Gao Han feel the headache is that recently there was news from the media that Chelsea was secretly contacting Liverpool's Gerrard.

Everyone knows that Gerrard had an unhappy relationship with Liverpool in order to renew his contract, and even affected his game state. Although both sides compromised later, the problem is still obvious.

As a newly promoted midfielder in England this season, Gerrard is hot.

In addition to Gerrard, Alpine also received wind, Ashley Cole and Vieira from Arsenal, Ballack from Bayern Munich, Figo from Real Madrid, Shevchenko from AC Milan, and Ke from Inter Milan. Respo is Chelsea's target.

There is a saying that is right, there can be no waves without wind.

Gao Han personally learned about the situation from Abramovich. The latter denied the rumors outside and promised to notify Gao Han in advance if it really wants to operate.

In addition, Abramovich also said that the team is working on a contract extension, which will increase Alpine's salary and bonuses next season. He hopes that he can lead this Chelsea team to make persistent efforts in the Champions League. Make a difference on the field.

Even if it is Gao Han, he is a little hard to distinguish between the true and false statements inside and out.

The only thing that is clear is that Wenger bombarded Chelsea's poaching in the media, and Liverpool was also very dissatisfied with it.

Even Gao Han felt that if he was so blatantly digging corners, the management must have kicked the donkey in the head.

With Deco, Lampard and Veron, what else do Barack, Gerrard and Vieira do?

What's more, they do not meet the tactical requirements of Alpine.

But at this time of internal and external troubles, another Henry was killed.

"Do you know where is the biggest gap between Manchester United and Arsenal?" Gao Han asked suddenly.

Lin Xia thought for a while, shook her head and asked, "Where?"

"A domineering!"

"Domineering?" Lin Xia couldn't understand.

"Yes, Manchester United is strong because they always carry a domineering attitude, regardless of their strength. It was managed by Ferguson for many years. In 1999, the Triple Crown reached its peak, and even now, They are still very well maintained, not because of Beckham's departure, not because of the decline of the team's performance and strength."

"Last season, the reason why Arsenal gave up the league title in the second half was because they lacked Manchester United's domineering. This is a uniqueness that is difficult to erect in a short time even if there are more signings. temperament."

Lin Xia suddenly understood.

She had seen the column written by Matayana and listened to the commentary of De La Morena before. Both of them agreed that Atletico Madrid’s success this season was due to Heynckes’ success in continuing the alpine period. The unique temperament created gives the Sheets Corps a strong belief in winning in every game.

No matter who the opponent is, encountering them is invisibly shorter.

"The team has performed very well so far, but Henry’s sudden strike has brought some unfavorable effects to the team, which has hit the psychology of many players, whether it is for the team or the players. Long-term development is very unfavorable."

"and so……"

Gao Han nodded, "You can lose the battle for the King of Sagittarius, but you can't lose it at this moment."

Lin Xia finally understood what Gao Han meant.

You can lose, but you have to fight to the last moment.

"So, you got angry on purpose?" Lin Xia asked with a sly smile.

Gao Han smiled bitterly and shook his head, "It's kind of, but I really feel flustered in my heart, I always want to find someone to vent my anger."

Lin Xia giggled, daring to admit it, it was too shameful.

But soon, she remembered one more thing and smiled back.

"By the way, I don't know if I should tell you something."

"What's the matter?" Gao Han asked strangely.

Lin Xia didn't answer, but looked at Gao Han with her beautiful eyes open, her eyes full of concern.

"Don't worry, I'm fine, let's talk." As if to prove that he was fine, Gao Han picked up the dishes again.

Lin Xia hesitated, and finally spoke, "Old Hill has been hospitalized again."

"Oh, I'm hospitalized again." Gao Han smiled, "Old problems?"

He is used to it.

As early as when he coached Atletico Madrid, Old Hill's health was relatively bad, and admission to the hospital was common.

"Yeah." Lin Xia nodded, "but this time I'm afraid..."

Gao Han shook his hands and suddenly raised his head to look at Lin Xia. He couldn't believe it, but when he saw Lin Xia's sure eyes again, his hands were weak, and he put down the bowls and chopsticks in his hands, and sighed for a long time. Tone.

For the chairman of Atletico Madrid, he is still very grateful, because if old Hill had not given him the opportunity, he would not have taken the position so quickly, and when he was coaching Atletico Madrid, old Hill and the management also gave him The trust in his heart gave him an extremely relaxed coaching environment.

This, compared to Chelsea now, he really felt it.

But suddenly I heard the news...

"I'm going to make a call."

After finishing speaking, Gao Han turned to pick up the phone and called Xiao Hill.

Xiao Hill was very happy when he received a call from Gao Han.

Although Gao Han has not coached Atletico Madrid, they are still good friends and the past is very close.

With regard to Old Hill's condition, Xiao Hill reassures Gao Han over the phone. His condition has temporarily stabilized, but it is not difficult to tell from his words that Old Hill's condition is already very unsatisfactory.

"The old man heard that the team had drawn Monaco. He was very happy, and he felt hopeful for defending the Champions League." Little Hill laughed.

"Well, there is indeed a chance of winning." Gao Han felt so too.

In the semi-finals, Atletico Madrid is the strongest and has the greatest chance of winning. Whether it is Monaco, Porto or Deportivo, they are slightly inferior to Atletico Madrid.

"The old man also said that if you are there, then you are sure of winning."

Gao Han smiled, but he felt uneasy in his heart.

"Then tell the old man, when I can get out of here, I'll go see him."

"Well, don't worry, it's fine for the time being." Little Hill comforted.

After hanging up the phone, Gao Han breathed a sigh of relief.

Now is the closing stage of the season. The matches are one after the other, almost a double match a week. He really can't get out. He can only wait until the league is over before he can go to Madrid.

He was relieved to hear that Old Hill was in stable condition.

Now, what worries him most is the battle of the Sagittarius King.

I don't know if his fire in the locker room can wake up the players and let them regain their spirits.

The UEFA Cup semi-finals will be played in the middle of the week. The opponent is Newcastle first away and then the host. The 35th round of the Premier League is sandwiched between the two rounds. The opponent is also Newcastle. He played the Magpies three times in a week. The luck is indeed good enough.

The Magpies have not performed very well this season. At present, they are ranked sixth in the Premier League. Chelsea won 5-0 at home in the first leg of the two leagues, so Alpine is still confident of winning.

The only worry is Eto'o.

If the Cameroon striker surrenders early and surrenders now, it will not be a good thing for him or Chelsea.

"I hope he can stand up!" Gao Han thought in his heart.

…………

…………

Newcastle did not perform well this season, and luckier in the second half.

Many major players, including Dyer, were injured, resulting in the loss of the Magpies’ combat effectiveness. The conflict between the team’s main center Alan Shearer and the coach Robson is also getting deeper and deeper. The team has doubts about Robson. Also getting bigger.

The Magpies are currently ranked fourth in the Premier League, but only one point more than Liverpool, who is fifth, and two points more than Aston Villa, who is sixth. The situation is not optimistic, especially with Chelsea in the next round and the final round of the league. More to face Liverpool.

Therefore, Newcastle's internal strategy is also very clear, do everything possible to keep fourth in the league.

As for the UEFA Cup, it is good to have it, but there is nothing to regret.

Therefore, in the midweek home game against Chelsea, Robson did not line up the main lineup, but chose the rotation.

Chelsea also did not have the main force, and Alpine also chose to rotate~lightnovelpub.net~ But the thickness of the Blues' bench is obviously stronger than that of Newcastle, so at St. James's Park, it relies on Frank Lampard and Ronaldinho. The goal was defeated by two to zero.

This battle basically confirmed that Chelsea will enter the UEFA Cup final.

But everyone can see that both sides are a little absent-minded.

Chelsea has hidden five main players including Ibrahimovic, Eto'o and Deco, making it clear that they want to stay for the next 35th round of the Premier League.

The British media and even ordinary fans have felt the determination of Gao Han to fight for the league's top scorer.

Therefore, many media have reported that Alpine's move was too arrogant and only considered personal gains and losses, and did not take into account the overall situation of the team, that is, Chelsea won. If they lose to Newcastle, it will be more than worth the gain.

But there are also many Chelsea fans who strongly support Gao Han's behavior, thinking that it is certain that Gao Han dares to do so.

Besides, this scorer's honor has been robbed for a season. Is it now that he has to surrender in advance?
