Chapter 39 The Return of Aguero
Aguero arrived early on purpose.
He is a very 'face-loving' person and doesn't want others to see it, so he came here around eight o'clock.
Aguero thought he had come early enough and was ready to wait for more than half an hour, but what he didn't expect was that the door was open, and when he walked in, he saw that the head coach was in the office.
"It's so early." Aguero was a little surprised.
Wan Sheng raised his head and was a little surprised to see Aguero.
"Is something wrong?" he asked.
Aguero asked directly in surprise, "You are so early every day?"
"Occasionally...will it be later?"
Wan Sheng replied.
Aguero was even more surprised. From the Chinese people's voice, he could know that the other party often came to work so early, and it was just eight o'clock now, which means that the other party often came to the club after seven o'clock.
Team gathering time is nine in the morning!
"What's the matter?" Wan Sheng asked again.
Only then did Aguero react. He lowered his head and hesitated. After a while, he finally whispered, "Coach..."
"Call me boss!"
"Okay... Boss, I'm here to apologize to you." After saying this, Aguero took a long breath and raised his head.
Wan Sheng smiled and said, "Apologize? Do you know what you did wrong?"
Aguero gritted his teeth and choked out a few words, "Boss, I know I'm wrong, I shouldn't be late, I shouldn't disrespect the rules of training, I hope to return to first-team training and represent the team in competitions."
Wan Sheng looked at Aguero and nodded with satisfaction, "Okay, now that you know, let's go back to first-team training today." After that, he waved his hand, indicating that Aguero can leave.
After that, Wan Sheng ignored Aguero, and immediately turned around and stared at the tactical board to write and draw.
Aguero was surprised.
He originally thought that the other party would ridicule him, and he was ready to accept it, but he didn't expect the other party to let him go like this?
"Oh, I'm so stupid! If I knew this, I should have apologized earlier!"
An apology is nothing.
In this way, there is no shame in the office, why should I suffer for two months!
Aguero took a long breath, glanced at Wansheng at work again, and quickly turned and left.
Wan Sheng turned his head and glanced at it and smiled indifferently.
Aguero can come to apologize and hope to return to the first team, which is also what Wansheng hopes to see.
Wansheng doesn't expect much sincerity from the Argentine boy. They are just a normal relationship between the coach and the players. Aguero's attitude of apology and maintaining his majesty as a coach is enough.
This time it was to teach Aguero a lesson.
His team is not allowed to have a guy who challenges the majesty of the head coach.
If this Argentine boy only repents verbally, he still has a lot of useless means!

That morning, the first-team players found Aguero back for training.
Many people were talking about this, and some people who had a good relationship with Aguero directly asked Aguero.
As the protagonist of everyone's discussion, it is definitely not very pleasant, but overall, it is still very good. More than half of the players in the Atlético de Madrid first team are old players. They are very familiar with Aguero and won't say much.
Back in the first team, Aguero feels like he's back at the heart of it all.
Compared with Diego Costa, Aguero's advantage is that he is familiar with many people in the team. Those old players have a tacit understanding with Aguero. In contrast, Diego Costa is much worse.
However, Atletico Madrid's main lineup, especially in the midfield, is still mostly new players, especially the more important Maurice, Ozil, and Isco who performed well in the last game. There is no difference between Go Costa, but a few people 'take care' of Diego Costa. Costa is also a new player. In addition, Costa has always performed well in previous games.
Watching the training on the court, Wan Sheng smiled slightly, and the real competition for the team's striker has begun.
Wansheng encourages this kind of competition.
Competing in the normal way is good for the team's progress.
Aguero wants to regain the main position, Diego Costa wants to hold his position, the two will definitely compete, and since it is a competition, they will definitely compete to perform hard.
This competition will make the team's striker better and better.
————
Atletico Madrid did not deliberately cover up the news of Aguero's return to the first team, so the Madrid media reported that day.
They are optimistic about Aguero's 'return'.
There is no doubt about Aguero's strength and state. He is definitely one of the striker geniuses in world football. Some media believe that "Aguero's 'return' will make Atletico Madrid's striker stronger."
Some media also believe that "Aguero wants to squeeze out Diego Costa, and it is not easy to regain the main position."
Some media believe that "Diego Costa is no worse than Aguero, and whether Aguero can get back to his state is still a question."
For these reports, Atletico Madrid does not care, Wansheng leads the team to fight in the league.
On Sunday, La Liga ushered in the fifth round, with Atletico Madrid at home against Zaragoza.
Zaragoza is a relegation team. During the winter transfer last season, Zaragoza bought some quite practical players, and they also successfully avoided relegation.
One of their best deals at the time was the loan of striker Suazzo, but it was a pity that Zaragoza could not keep him.
In the new season, Zaragoza's biggest transfer is to buy the 30-year-old defender Contini, the other is to sign and loan some players for free, and the overall lineup has not changed much.
Many media analysts believe that Zaragoza's biggest problem is scoring goals.
The same is true in the first four rounds. Zaragoza’s results with two draws and two losses ranked last. At the same time, they only scored three goals in the first four rounds, and they scored in the same game, and they lost 3 to 5 in that one. To Sporting Santander.
Facing such a team troubled by goals, Atlético de Madrid put their hands and feet on the offensive and continued to attack at home, and the final score was fixed at 3-0.
Atlético de Madrid won easily.
It is worth noting in the game that Atletico Madrid's starting forwards were Diego Costa and Klose, and Aguero came off the bench in the middle, but until the end of the game, neither of them were able to complete the goal, but Fran's performance Yes, personally scored two goals.
Another goal belongs to defender Ujfalusi.
Many people will be unfamiliar with the name of Ujfalusi. In fact, whether it is last season or this season, Ujfalusi is an important player in the back line.
Ujfalusi is actually very famous. He is known as one of the best defenders in Europe, and he is also the pinnacle of the Czech defense.
After entering professional football, Ujfalusi played for Sigma in the Czech Republic. In December 2000, he moved to Hamburg. During his 4 seasons in the Bundesliga, he became a Czech international.
After that, Ujfalusi moved to Fiorentina for 7.5 million euros. In the 2005-2006 season, in addition to the suspension, Ujfalusi started every game and played all the games. In the 2007-2008 season, 28 appearances helped Fiorentina squeeze out AC. Milan into the UEFA Champions League.
After that, Ujfalusi chose to come to Atletico Madrid. He has played for Atletico Madrid for two seasons.
The stable performance has been the key to Ujfalusi's main position. Although he is 32 years old, Wansheng still kept Ujfalusi to ensure the stability of the team's defense.
In this game against Zaragoza, Ujfalusi played quite well. In a corner kick, he also inserted the top of his head to help the team score a goal.
If it weren't for Forlan's two goals, Ujfaluci would definitely be the best player in the game.
Seeing Ujfalusi's performance, Wansheng was also very satisfied. He found that these "old players" of Atlético Madrid are still very capable.
This is the essence of the big club.
The match between Atlético de Madrid and Zaragoza was also the last game in September. After this game, the Spanish media were surprised to find that Atlético de Madrid remained unbeaten in September.
Atletico Madrid won 4 wins and 1 draw in 5 games, with 13 points, 15 goals, only 3 goals conceded, and a goal difference of 12.
With such a good result, Atletico Madrid has undoubtedly become the top of the league table.
The statistics of Atlético de Madrid's points ranking, goals scored, goals conceded, goal difference, etc. are very surprising. Who would have thought that a mid-level team that has undergone major changes in the summer could leap into La Liga Best in the league?
Compared with last season, Atletico Madrid has changed a lot!
"What makes this team so good?" "Aspen" asked a question, and their answer was 'Wan Sheng', "This young man's coaching ability has been shown in the previous rounds of the league. Brilliantly.”
"Before the season started, he said that Atletico Madrid was a team competing for the championship, but no one cared at that time, but now, seeing the results of Atletico Madrid, who would dare to say that they are not qualified to compete for the league title?"
Compare that to Real Madrid.
Real Madrid and Atlético de Madrid are rivals in the same city. In the summer, Real Madrid also changed the head coach. Mourinho came to the Bernabeu Stadium with the might of the European champion and took up the role of Real Madrid coach.
The league has gone through five rounds, and Real Madrid's results are also good. They have won 3 wins and 2 draws in 5 games, and they also remain unbeaten in the league.
But in terms of game statistics, Real Madrid and Atletico Madrid are far behind. They only scored 6 goals, and the goal difference was only 3. The only thing that can compare with Atletico Madrid is the number of goals conceded... two The team conceded 3 goals.
Therefore, the "Aspen" that supports Atlético de Madrid immediately put the data of the first five rounds of the two teams together, which reflects the excellence of Atlético de Madrid, as well as the difference of... Real Madrid.
The "Marca" that supports Real Madrid is another attitude. They don't think Real Madrid is worse than Atletico Madrid.
Although Real Madrid does not have an advantage regardless of the previous results, they speak on the basis that Real Madrid has enough heritage and believe that as the season progresses, Real Madrid's results will only get better and better, while Atletico Madrid is the opposite, their heritage is not deep enough , "It's already the pinnacle of Atlético Madrid!"
Soon the two media started endless debates on this issue.
Meanwhile, Atlético de Madrid continues to be close in the league.
In the sixth round, Atletico Madrid defeated Atlético Gijon 4-0 at home.
In the seventh round, Atletico Madrid beat Getafe 2-1 at home.
After this game, Atlético de Madrid won five consecutive league victories. Almost all Spanish sports media mentioned Atlético de Madrid's results. It is not easy to get a five-game winning streak after just seven rounds of the league.
However, in the eighth round of the league, Atletico Madrid encountered a little trouble, and Villarreal, who are at home, performed quite strongly.
Last season's "Yellow Submarines" did not play as expected, because they stayed in the bottom half of the standings for a long time.
Avoiding a bad start was crucial for Garrido's side, but they didn't make up for it after losing a number of key players.
In the summer, Godin joined Atletico Madrid, and Villarreal's strength weakened again, but no one expected that Villarreal had a very strong start to the season. In the past seven league rounds, They have 5 wins, 1 draw and 1 loss, ranking fourth in the league.
In this game against Atletico Madrid, Villarreal continued to perform well, they scored in the opening 12 minutes.
The away game is inherently passive, and the poor start made Atlético Madrid even more difficult.
After that, Atlético Madrid fought hard for the ball and attacked Villarreal in the half-court time and time again, but it was not until the 83rd minute of the game that they relied on Maurice's long-range shot to break the Villarreal goal. .
The final score was 1-1.
"It's a pity that it was a draw," Wan Sheng said after the game. "The opponent's form is quite good. They have a good offense and a solid defense. They deserve a point."
Wansheng said these words casually, but Villarreal coach Garrido didn't like it.
In terms of the results of leading the team in La Liga, Garrido believes that he is no worse than Wansheng. He only took over Villarreal in February this year. In the end, he brought the team to seventh place, and this season, Billy has Areal is also only one win less than Atletico Madrid, the gap is not very big.
In the opponent's tone, 'deserving a point', shouldn't Villarreal take it?
So Garrido said confrontationally, "Our performance was poor, Atletico Madrid showed a tough state, and they deserved a point."
Hearing Garrido's words, the media immediately became excited.
This is a confrontation between two coaches!
Wan Sheng didn't care, he just smiled and finally said, "I'm already looking forward to the next fight with Villarreal!" (To be continued ~^~)
