Chapter 198 The Angry Honest Man
On the second day, the first day of training after the team lost the game against Murcia, Chang Sheng was on his way to the training base when he was called by club president Flores to Alfonso Pere Adams Stadium.
Chang Sheng is no longer as concerned about why Mr. Chairman asked him to go than when he was called by Flores for the first time.
He has already made a decision in his heart, and no matter what changes happen to the outside world, he will follow the will to make this decision. It doesn't matter if he looks like an idiot Don Quixote charging towards the windmill in the eyes of others.
In the chairman's office, Chang Sheng saw that Flores was even older.
He was almost curled up on the chair, because of the backlight, if you don't squint your eyes and look carefully, you might think that there is actually no one on the big boss chair.
"Chang, I'm sorry... I still haven't been able to save the club and the team's fate... No one is interested in the team, no, or they are interested, but they don't want to pay too much money, they are greedy on the sidelines Waiting, waiting for the day the club gets repossessed by the bank... hell, but there's nothing I can do..."
Seeing Chang Sheng come in, Flores curled up on the chair and announced his surrender without getting up.
Chang Sheng looked against the light, as if he saw the old man tremblingly raised his arm, holding a white flag in his hand.
"Getafe is doomed, maybe I'm a selfish person, but I want you to stay in Getafe. If Getafe is doomed, I think the only one who can bring her back from the ashes is you. Chang." The old man really raised his arm tremblingly this time, but he didn't hold the white flag in his hand, but pointed at Chang Sheng.
Chang Sheng was expressionless and didn't say a word.
"I originally wanted Moscow to sign a contract extension with you one month earlier, and this time I planned to give you a contract of at least three years. But the damn debt crisis...the damn economic crisis!" The old man became excited. "But now I hope that after the arrival of the new boss, you can continue to stay at Getafe. You have proved your ability and value with your actual actions. I think any new boss, as long as his IQ is still normal, can I should do everything possible to keep you..."
Chang Sheng looked at Mr. Chairman who was chattering endlessly.
It's really far from the image he had when he came to the interview. It has nothing to do with the image of the distinguished elder who invited him to eat at home.
He was like a drowning man clutching at the last straw.
But he didn't want to save his own life, he wanted to save Getafe's life.
Served as chairman of this team for nine years.
From the membership system to the shareholding system, who can do it for so long if they don't have enough affection for the team? The money from the family business was invested, and the bank owed a huge amount of debt. If it is not because of deep enough love, you only need to buy a season ticket every year, and watching the game in a box with bright windows can also show your support for the team.
But he has been the chairman of the club for nine years, and finally forced himself into this look.
Until now, the club was about to die, but he still began to think about things after the team's rebirth. The simple thought of a club president, as long as he leaves behind an excellent head coach. So even if Getafe is entered into the second division B league, they can make a comeback.
Seeing him rambling on about Luo Libasuo in a low voice, as if he was afraid that he would reject him.
Chang Sheng didn't want to add any more pain to the poor old man, so he interrupted the other person and said, "Okay. I promise you, Mr. Flores. As long as the new boss doesn't drive me away, I will Will continue to coach the team, in fact, I also like Getafe, even though she is so weak."
Attitude has nothing to do with ability. Love has nothing to do with strength. Some people admire the strong, while others love the weak. For Chang Sheng, his love for Getafe is very simple, because this is the first team he really coached after he was reborn into this world. It was this team that took him in when he was on the verge of desperation, it was this team that taught him how to be a real coach, it was this team that he had a stage to show his talents , the team that gave him his first fan, the first song sung for him at a game, the team that made him think he should have been a fucking one in his previous life Football coach!
This is the place where his dream started and the first encounter in his life.
It's like first love.
First love is always beautiful, but first love is not necessarily the most beautiful. Getafe is weak and not beautiful, but it is Chang Sheng's first love.
This reason alone is enough.
For Chang Sheng's answer, Flores was very satisfied and happy, and even had a smile on his face. This follow-up was the only time he smiled in the past month or so.
The smile faded quickly as he thought about himself and the fate of the club.
So he shrank back all over again.
Getafe is screwed, so is he.
Seeing Flores's decadent appearance, Chang Sheng didn't turn around and leave, but asked, "Mr. Chairman, I remember that I still owe a sum of money..."
Flores huddled in the chair and waved his hands weakly: "When I borrowed you, I told you that you don't have to pay it back. And I still owe you a month's salary..."
Chang Sheng spread his hands: "Yes, I don't have any money to pay back, Mr. Chairman. But you gave me a job when I needed it most, and you generously donated to me when I needed money the most Money. I must repay this love."
Flores laughed again. "Thank you, Chang. That's enough for you, really."
"No, not enough." Chang Sheng shook his head and said.
"I will definitely lead your favorite Getafe to the First Division. Mr. Chairman, I will do what I say! This is my repayment for your kindness. Goodbye, Mr. Chase, and now I am going to practice football Team. There are still fourteen rounds of the league."
After finishing speaking, Chang Sheng turned and left the chairman's office.
Of course Flores is aware of the "Championship Covenant" that the media are hyping up. But in his opinion, Chang Sheng is an absolutely impossible task...
He stared at the door where Chang Sheng left, and sighed.
The chairman of the club, who usually trusts Chang Sheng, also lost confidence this time.
※※※
Because Chang Sheng was temporarily called away, when the team's training began, it was mainly hosted by assistant coaches Rudy Gonzalez and Manuel Garcia.
But you can see it. Every player's mind is not on training. When Chang Sheng was around, he could still use his prestige to overwhelm these people, but once he was gone. The players showed their true colors.
It's not because of the club's crisis that makes them so distracted. They have already discussed this issue too much.
The reason why they are not focused on training now is because of the confrontation between Chang Sheng and the reporters.
That "Championship Covenant".
The head coach still wants to win the league championship. This surprised many players.
In the locker room before coming to training, these players discussed it in the locker room.
Some people don't believe it, some people believe it, there are differences.
Jose Passarella and Carlos Campo have disagreements on this matter.
Passarella firmly believes that Chang Sheng can do it. Campo is cautiously skeptical.
There are differences between the two of them, let alone within the team.
For now, though, the skeptics have the upper hand.
Because people who believe in constant victory really can't come up with very convincing reasons. Just like how Jose Passarella convinced Carlos Campo, he would only say: "Anyway, I just trust the boss."
But such an idealistic reason is not convincing.
It is understandable for him to believe in Chang Sheng so much, after all, there is a story between him and Chang Sheng. But other people may not be able to believe that... Everyone is a thoughtful person, and there must be something to do. It must be well-founded and logical. Jose Passarella is really like a magic stick, it's no wonder he can convince others.
They couldn't figure out why their head coach did this. Does he still think that the team has the ability to complete the promotion in the remaining fourteen rounds of the league. And a league championship by the way?
But the players themselves don't think they can do it.
Although the prospect of an upgrade looks really good.
Although in the middle of the season, when they ranked first in the league, they were all full of expectations and excitement for the league championship.
But in the face of the fact that he has not been paid for two months, and will continue to be unpaid in the future, and there is no sign of a solution to the club's economic crisis. That's nothing.
But being suspicious doesn't mean they will completely give up on themselves.
They are also very painful in their hearts now, and they are constantly struggling.
Their head coach has already let the words out. It stands to reason that they should support him, but when they think about the future, they really can't get excited.
But if you don't help the head coach, is it necessary to see him ashamed in front of the media?
Although the time has not yet come, the issue of wage arrears will definitely not be resolved in the next month. It is normal that the salary will not be paid for three months.
So according to the rules, is it really going to strike?
Players still have such considerations now.
But there are also differences.
Jose Passarella and Carlos Campo, as well as Luis Garcia and Balzaretti, these four people are firmly opposed to the strike. Their reason is that it will shame their coach. However, the last two are not convincing, because Luis Garcia and Balzaretti are both on loan, and their salaries are not given by Getafe, so they have no financial pressure, so naturally they have nothing to say about this matter. portion.
In addition, Senna, Mista, Rondo and others also took a wait-and-see attitude towards the strike and did not support it, but they did not explicitly oppose it.
If the opinions are not unified, the strike will obviously not be possible.
These two things have not reached a consensus within the team, which shows the current chaos within the team.
Just as they continued to kill time on the training ground in a daze, they suddenly heard a series of harsh whistles.
Then they heard Rudy Gonzalez's distraught voice: "Manuel, are you crazy?!"
Many people turned their attention to the two coaches who were standing next to each other on the training ground.
Coach Manuel Garcia has a whistle in his mouth. Staring at the players angrily, he didn't look at the assistant coach next to him covering his ears with a painful face.
"If you don't want to train, then why do you still come here? You can support yourself even if you find a job in a month! Since you have come here, it means that you have accepted the status of being a player. As long as you are my players for a day, I will strictly demand you for a day! Now! Immediately! Give me serious training!"
Not only the players, but even Rudy Gonzalez next to him looked at the furious Manuel Garcia with surprised and strange eyes.
Coach Garcia pays great attention to maintaining team discipline in normal times. The performance requirements of the players in training are very strict. But that's normal, when everyone can get the salary normally given by the club, not now. I have been owed two months of salary, and will continue to be owed salary now.
Rudy Gonzalez didn't know why Manuel Garcia suddenly went crazy, and he pulled Manuel Garcia's clothes hard behind him. Tell him to calm down.
His assistant coach is most afraid of angering these players. The club has already owed these people two months of wages, and it seems that they have to continue to default. The emotions of the players are already very unstable. Stimulate them, maybe these players will strike now and show them. That would be a mess, how will it end?
But Manuel Garcia, who usually has a good temper and only yells a few times when players make mistakes in training, is uncharacteristically. He flicked away Rudy Gonzalez's hand holding his clothes, and then He strode up to the players. Standing on the training ground, surrounded by players who were puzzled and surprised with bad expressions.
"What are you looking at me for? Can you win by staring at me?" Manuel Garcia also stared back with fierce eyes. "In order to maintain the dignity of the team, your head coach did not hesitate to go to war with that group of sons of bitch reporters, and did not hesitate to put his reputation in it! The media has described him as a man who is evil and uneducated. No one Love bastard! He has to fight with those whores before and after every game, and now he has to endure their humiliation and taunts! What is he doing it for? Just for one he once gave you Promise of!"
Coach Manuel Garcia yelled in the crowd. No one present had ever seen Coach Manuel Garcia so excited. They were all stupid and let Coach Manuel Garcia roar loudly . Spray saliva everywhere.
On Getafe's training ground, heavy dark clouds pressed down from the sky, as if to crush everything here. For Madrid, which has 2,875 hours of sunshine throughout the year and ranks first in the number of sunny days in European capitals, such cloudy weather as today is rare, so that people think it will rain up.
Under everyone's gaze, this honest man waved his arms vigorously and shouted almost word for word: "He still remembers the wish he made to you at the end of last game, and he still remembers what he said to you at the beginning of this season. What you said! He! Want! Take! You! Go! First Class! League!"
"And what about you? You always say you want to support the head coach, and that's how you support it? Huh? Are you so fucking supportive?! When your head coach needs you the most, what the hell are you doing? The team lost five games in seven rounds of the league, he never criticized you, right? But if this matter was put in the past, you bastards would have been driven to the B team by him! He didn't do that, Because they understand your difficulties, he just speaks hard to the reporters! But when did he actually put you in the B team because of your distractions in practice? Because he understands you! But you? You understand his difficulties huh? He opened his arms and helped you to block all the attacks, how about you? You take it for granted and be your cowards! Why don’t you stuff your heads in your crotch!? Even I am ashamed of you all! Shame! Shame and shame! The usual care for you really blinded him!"
After scolding all the players, Manuel Garcia didn't mean to let them go, he started calling names.
"Carlos Campo! Usually you yell 'boss' one by one. But now? You act like a fucking sissy on the court and on the training ground! Do you remember who was there at the time? Did the youth team bring new life to your friends? Do you remember who brought you from the C team to the first team? Do you remember who brought you into the first team after only a week? Did you become famous in the match against Osasuna?!"
hard to imagine. Manuel Garcia, an honest man who usually only yells a few times, and will be choked by reporters when he goes to a press conference, is so good at ridiculing people.
After he scolded Carlos Campo until he blushed and bowed his head, he pointed the finger at the full-back Rondo: "Rondo! Who helped you block the entanglements and attacks from the media? Who did it for you? Suspended for two games? Who told you on the sidelines that he took all the responsibility? Who?!"
"Luis Garcia! When you came to this team, how did you perform? When you were in trouble and ready to break the pot, who kept talking to you alone and giving you advice? And who is it? Specially designed new tactics to highlight you? Now that you have become the absolute core of the team, you fucking forgot about that person, right? You ungrateful villain!"
In fact, the people on his list performed pretty well after the team encountered an economic crisis. But Manuel Garcia couldn't take care of that much anymore. His eyes were red and he would bite anyone he saw. According to Rudy Gonzalez. Manuel Garcia is no different from a mad dog.
He shook his head and murmured: "Crazy, crazy, all fucking crazy..."
"Charisteas! I won't say that he brought you from Greece, and I won't say that you became the top scorer in the second division under his tactics. I'm just asking you this never When the bastard who knows how to manage money has no money to eat, who gave the money so that you can stand here alive and look at me? Who is it?!"
"And you! You! You! You! And you! All of you!" Manuel Garcia pointed one by one. "If it wasn't for him last season, you would have already fucked up in the second division B league! How could they stand here like they are now, enjoying the reputation brought by the league! You may follow Hertha You will be relegated together with Fei, maybe you will leave the team to go elsewhere. But no matter where you go, you will not enjoy this season! You may never... until you retire, you will not know what it is like to be first in the league! Neither will you Know what it's like to knock out a first-tier team like Celta Vigo and advance to the semi-finals of the King's Cup! You don't even know what it's like to beat Atletico Madrid at home!"
"Without him! You're a fucking bunch of shit! You'll do nothing and have nothing! Who's going to know who you are? Who's going to talk to you? What company is going to ask you to do commercials? But now. He's putting you on it Now, when he was in trouble, fighting alone, and in need of help, you kicked him mercilessly away, only thinking about how to find a way out for yourself. You even thought about going on strike! Right? Don’t use that kind of Look at me, I know what you're thinking, it's just that you're two months behind on your salary and you're fucking thinking about going on strike in a month...yes, you're not paid, you're having a great time Difficult, but do you always have a salary to get? Don’t forget that he also generously donated money to help those prodigals among you who spend a lot of money and have no savings at all!"
"You used to work hard for money to train and play. Now shouldn't you work hard for your head coach? Just for the reasons I said, shouldn't you help him, support him? Let him stop fighting alone ?! If you are still normal people, if you still have a little bit of conscience, you should all know what to do!"
"No salary for two months, the future of the club is uncertain... so what? It's just for the reason of your head coach, shouldn't you train hard and go all out in the game?!"
Manuel Garcia stared angrily at the players who were all bowed by his scolding.
The strange thing is that even those players who performed well did not jump up to refute after being scolded by Manuel Garcia, but just buried their heads deeply.
Garcia didn't mean to let them go because of this. Ever since he talked with Chang Sheng the day before yesterday, he felt that there was a fire in his heart.
This group of fire has been burning more and more in the past two days, especially after the media reported Changsheng's "Championship Covenant" and were not optimistic about him.
Now, he finally couldn't keep the fire in his heart anymore. The flame turned into boiling magma and gushed out, engulfing the entire Las Margarita Sports City in an instant.
He remembered what Chang Sheng said to himself.
You really are a Don Quixote, fool...
Then he blew the whistle in his mouth vigorously: "Training! Your head coach hasn't given up yet, and I won't give up! There are still fourteen rounds of the league. Even if I really want to die, let me finish these fourteen rounds." Talk about the league!"
