Chapter 905 The Pattern Is Broken
Mourinho wants to oust Gao Han?
This was never news, it was old news.
In Gao Han's eyes, to a certain extent, Mourinho is a combination of an angel and a devil.
As a head coach, he has outstanding coaching ability and personal charisma. He has incredible appeal, making everyone on the team devoted to him and convinced.
For example, after the Copa del Rey final and the team won the cup, many of the team's top players stepped forward to support Mourinho.
Diego Costa said that Mourinho's work is very important to everyone at Real Madrid and injects a winner's temperament into the team. During the halftime break, it was also Mourinho's encouragement and affirmation that made everyone happy. Everyone is full of fighting spirit.
Midfielder Felipe Melo also said that he was very tired during the game and it was difficult to even take a step, but he always persisted in the game because Mourinho repeatedly told them that Real Madrid has the ability. Defeat any opponent.
Portuguese compatriot Moutinho also praised Mourinho after the game, believing that the Portuguese madman is the captain of the Galacticos. Everyone on the battleship is willing to follow him until death and obey his orders unconditionally. Arrangement, and Mourinho has benefited them every time and brought them victory.
In addition, many Real Madrid stars, including Higuain and Casillas, have praised Mourinho. They believe that the Portuguese madman's coaching in Real Madrid is very successful. When the team's situation is difficult, he is his Encouragement allows players to stop being discouraged and regain confidence to compete with the best teams in the world.
"Being able to beat Barcelona proves that we can beat any team, including Manchester City next." Team captain Casillas said with confidence.
The Spanish media also attached great importance to Real Madrid's victory and rated it very highly, believing it to be a landmark victory.
El Pais believes that this is a legendary game. The two teams are competing for the dominance of Spanish football. In this high-level contest, Mourinho helped Real Madrid have the last laugh. Won the King's Cup after an absence of 20 years.
“Being able to defeat Guardiola’s dream team and win the Copa del Rey when Barcelona is at its peak and dominate Spanish and European football, it’s self-evident how valuable Real Madrid’s championship trophy is. .”
Marca believes that Mourinho has helped Real Madrid regain the confidence of the king.
The other two newspapers in Catalonia expressed regret for losing the final. Some criticized Mourinho's playing style as too dirty, and some believed that the referee was too caring for Real Madrid.
"The game between Arbeloa and Diego Costa was full of violence, but the referee tacitly allowed them to play like this and they didn't even get a card. This is absolutely incredible."
"We are happy to look forward to the upcoming Champions League semi-finals because the referee will not be Spanish."
Obviously, the Catalan media believed that the referee intentionally or unintentionally favored Real Madrid.
This is not entirely unreasonable, because Real Madrid's style of play in the game was indeed too rough, and Mourinho's team only had a measly 20% ball possession rate, which is indeed incredible.
You know, Real Madrid has always been known for its gorgeous playing style, but under the guidance of Mourinho, in terms of gorgeousness, in La Liga, let alone Barcelona, even compared with Manchester United and Chinatown, it is far behind. Not as good as.
This is what Cruyff said when he reminded Guardiola before the game. The godfather of Barcelona believes that Mourinho will do whatever it takes to win, even playing destructive football.
But after winning the Copa del Rey, Mourinho counterattacked that night.
In an interview with the media, the head coach of Real Madrid said that facing a team like Barcelona, there is always no way to play the game as he wants. He must make some choices between losing and winning, between offense and defense. Out of choice.
"Before the game, someone said that I am a head coach who only cares about championship titles, and I fully agree with that."
"Yes, I am a head coach who likes to win championships. I have always believed that as a professional coach, my greatest moral is to lead the team I coach to win, so I am still standing here and have won Champion, while some people can only sit at home, sit in front of the TV, write columns and curse people."
It is undeniable that Mourinho's tongue is indeed extremely sharp. His sarcastic remarks about Cruyff will probably make the Barcelona godfather vomit blood with anger, but he will be unable to fight back.
This is the devilish side of Mourinho.
When he's an opponent, he'll nag, pester, and annoy you.
Even Guardiola, who has always had a mild temper and rarely loses his temper in front of others, was completely out of control by Mourinho's verbal spat before the Copa del Rey final. He openly swore at the pre-match press conference. , scolded Mourinho.
After finishing the Copa del Rey, Mourinho quickly turned his gun and targeted Manchester City's Gao Han.
In an interview with the media after the game, the Portuguese madman said that his team has become unprecedentedly united because of winning the championship. The team is more cohesive. Everyone supports him unconditionally and firmly believes that the team can defeat all incoming attacks. enemy.
Not only that, Mourinho also took the initiative to talk about the upcoming game against Manchester City.
"As I said before, as long as we have eleven people on the pitch at the end of the game, then I can beat any opponent, whether it's Barcelona or Manchester City."
"Yes, there is no doubt that I am a manager who likes to talk about referees very much. The reason is simple. I can't control the frustration of falling behind or even losing because of the referee's mistakes. Whenever the referee makes a major error I criticize whenever I can, and I’m sorry and please forgive me for being blunt, but that’s the kind of person I am.”
"There is also a type of people, a very small number, who never talk about the referee. That is because they can often benefit from the referee's mistakes. But in fact, once they suffer a loss from the referee's enforcement, they will He will also be full of complaints like me, and may even scold him more seriously than me, because I am used to it and he is not."
When the media asked Mourinho whether Manchester City coach Gao Han belonged to the latter type of person he said, the Portuguese coach chuckled and replied: "This is your guess, but I didn't say anything."
But whether it was his tone or expression, it was obvious to everyone that, yes, I was talking about him.
Regarding Gao Han's coaching performance in the past ten years, Mourinho also said that he has never doubted it.
"Yes, he has achieved impressive results, but when it comes to dominating European football, I don't think he has, and I don't think he can win like this forever."
At the end of the interview, Mourinho also answered how he mobilized the players. He believed that the most important thing was to arouse everyone's desire, which was more effective than anything else.
"A guy named Einstein once said that the only thing in the universe more powerful than steam, electricity and atomic energy is human desire. In fact, everyone has seen that we defeated Barcelona. Next, we can also Beat Manchester City."
"As long as we keep this burning desire, we can accomplish anything."
"I want to say that the celebration at the Statue of Harvest was great. A Copa del Rey champion was a bit deserted. We hope to bring more championship trophies there to celebrate with all the fans who came to the scene."
"But now, we have to get over the hurdle of Manchester City first!"

Cantarero knew Gao Han's character and knew that he would take an early flight back to Manchester, so he prepared several Spanish newspapers for him. They were originally intended for him to kill time on the plane, but Gao Han carefully collected them.
After the plane landed in Manchester, Gao Han returned to the Carrington training base. He immediately asked people to cut out all the remarks about Mourinho in the newspapers, especially those targeted remarks, and made a PPT. It was presented to all the players at the pre-match preparation meeting that afternoon.
As the pictures switched from picture to picture, the Manchester City players in the conference room were obviously infected and resentful.
In the past few years, Gao Han's status in European football has become higher and higher. Especially in recent years, he has been elevated to an almost god-like status. The same is true within Manchester City.
Even some players who left the team angrily rarely spoke harshly to Gao Han, but now that Mourinho is openly so provocative, how can this group of players in the Manchester City team endure it?
"What a funny little man!"
"Isn't that right? Although I had known for a long time that he was speaking freely, I didn't expect that he would reach this level. It's so shameless."
"If I heard him say that in person, I would tear his mouth apart!"
"He became so arrogant and domineering after winning the Copa del Rey. Does he think that if he can beat Barcelona, he can beat us, Manchester City?"
"I really want to see his face when he loses, it will be very interesting."
"Better do another five-to-zero!"
The players were talking to each other, the conference room was noisy, and the discussion was very lively.
Gao Han is confident enough about his status and prestige within the team, so he dares to show Mourinho's briefings to everyone, in order to let everyone directly feel Mourinho's respect for him as the head coach. , humiliation and ridicule to everyone in Manchester City.
"Boss, let's fight back!" Cristiano Ronaldo stood up and suggested.
"Yeah, fight back."
"Fight back, okay, let's scold him a few times too."
"It's better to scold him to death and let him know that we are not easy to mess with."
"Yes, we fight back."
The crowd immediately became very angry.
If they were really asked to go out to face the media at this time, they would probably be able to scold them with any unpleasant words.
However, if this happens, Mourinho will snicker.
Because that's what he wants to achieve.
Guardiola lost control before the game because he couldn't stand Mourinho's endless verbal spat and was really angry. I believe that with Guardiola's character, he couldn't help it. Then Barcelona's group of high-spirited players I couldn't help it.
As a result, everyone in Barcelona went to the court with anger and fell into Mourinho's scheme, while the Portuguese madman launched a long-planned targeted strategy to strangle Barcelona's seven-inch weakness. Barcelona lost their temper.
Gao Han has been coaching for more than ten years, what kind of battle has he not experienced?
Even Mourinho is not dealing with this for the first time.
After hearing what the player said, Gao Han shook his head, laughed, and waved his right hand.
"You guys, the pattern is broken!"
