Chapter 448 Controversy Caused by the First Release

The next day, the Huaguo media published articles criticizing Mourinho's arrogant attitude towards Huaguo coach Gao Bo.

"Ball News" believes that Gao Bo sincerely went to ask for advice, and he went there three times, but Mourinho only gave Gao Bo three minutes, which was enough to say hello at most. Head coach, this approach is undoubtedly humiliating. As a world-class coach, the behavior of humiliating the coach of a weak football country will not have no effect on Gao Bo, and will only damage his reputation.

"Sports Weekly" reporter Li Xiang broke the news that, in fact, Mourinho didn't plan to give Gao Bo three minutes. Save face for three minutes.

Li Xiang got Gao Xiaodong’s help when he was in Portugal, and now is the time to repay it. In the report, Li Xiang praised Gao Xiaodong’s behavior of speaking for Gao Bo regardless of previous suspicions. He believed that European and American societies respect the strong and want to gain their respect. , You must show strong strength and absolute results, just like Gao Xiaodong, who was looked down upon by all kinds when he first arrived in Portugal, but now, as strong as Da Costa, Mendes, Ferguson, Mourinho also have to respect Respectfully came to invite people like Mourinho and Ferguson. Gao Bo wanted to impress people like Mourinho and Ferguson. It was useless to rely on humility. He had to make some achievements in the World Cup.

Media hype, many Chinese fans on the Internet also expressed indignation at Mourinho's behavior, thinking it was an insult to Chinese football, and condemned Mourinho on the Internet.

Mourinho's fans tried their best to defend Mourinho, thinking that Mourinho did not humiliate Gao Bo, let alone Chinese football. Inter Milan's visit to China this time is not a warm-up match, but a Super Cup match. , is the official champion, Mourinho is so busy every day, it is good to meet Gao Bo, how can I have time to communicate with Gao Bo.

The incident of Mourinho humiliating the head coach of the Chinese team was aroused online and offline. The chairman of Inter Milan, Moratti, was alarmed. He was worried that Chinese fans would turn to support Lazio because of this incident, so he suggested that Mourinho Explain it at the press conference, and give Gao Bo and Huaguo fans a step down.

Although the game against Lazio is about to start, Mourinho is not afraid that Chinese fans will turn against him because he humiliated Gao Bo, because Inter Milan has Gao Xiaodong, a star who has great popularity in China, no matter he Whatever Rinho says, Huaguo fans will definitely support Inter Milan.

At the press conference before the game, Mourinho only talked about the Super Cup and Inter Milan, and never raised his blog.

"From now on, we will go all out to compete for the Super Cup championship. Now we have won 4 Super Cup championships. If we win another championship, we can surpass Juventus and tie with A Milan. It is more meaningful than statistics. The most important thing is that this championship will allow us to welcome the league that starts a week later with a more relaxed state of mind.

I don't know who's the favorite for the Super Bowl,

I only know that both Inter Milan and Lazio want this championship, neither of them will give up, our players are more famous and worth more, but this does not mean that the championship is yours, otherwise Real Madrid will book all the championships this season up.

Don't talk to me about Pandev, Schneider, Van der Vaart, I don't want to talk about all the players who can't participate in the Super Cup. Inter Milan's three lines are fully equipped, and all the players I want are already in place. "

When a reporter from Huaguo asked Gao Xiaodong, Eto'o, and Lucio about their status, Mourinho replied: "They are obviously not in their best form, because they have only had a short time to get in touch with the team. They are all very good players. Even if they come to Inter Milan on the first day, they will definitely be able to bring important contributions to the team, because when we bought them, we took into account their characteristics and the tactics we wanted. Consistency, first of all, I can tell everyone that Gao Xiaodong will definitely, if I don’t let him, the 90,000 fans at the scene probably won’t agree, this is his home stadium, he will definitely perform well.”

When a reporter from Huaguo asked if Mourinho would dismiss get out of class if Inter Milan could not win the Champions League trophy this season, Mourinho was very upset: "I finally know why Huaguo football can't work, your football reporter The questions you ask are too amateurish, and you don’t seem to know much about football. You Hua people have won many events, except football. Your questions are too far from those of high-level journalists. In the Champions League, there are teams with the strength to win the championship. Five or six, but the key to winning the Champions League is the details and luck, and you can win the championship only when all the favorable conditions are on your side."

Gao Xiaodong also accompanied Mourinho to the pre-match press conference. In the Olympic Sports Center, he was more popular with reporters than Mourinho.

Gao Xiaodong first talked about the feeling of returning to China to play the game, "I am very happy and proud to be able to play in the Bird's Nest. The Olympic Games held here last year, our country has achieved great success and brought great benefits to the people of the whole country. The joy, this time will definitely not cause trouble for everyone."

Then he thanked the fans for their warm welcome, "I have been flattered by everyone's enthusiasm these days. In fact, I just did something trivial, and I really don't deserve such a courtesy."

When the reporter asked Gao Xiaodong when he would be able to represent the Hua Guo team, Gao Xiaodong chose to avoid it, "Now I just want to talk about the Super Cup, and I will talk about other things later. What can bring happiness to the fans now is not those distant ones." The topic is that I bring them a Super Cup. Lazio is not an underdog, and we are not the best Inter Milan. Everyone should focus on the game."

Another Huaguo reporter asked: "You have now become a role model for Huaguo players. Young players in Huaguo hope to succeed in Europe like you. Do you have any good advice for them?"

Gao Xiaodong said: "Europe represents the highest level of professional football. Young people who aspire to become professional players should go to Europe to exercise. Whether they succeed or not, it is a valuable asset. The competition in European football is very fierce. To gain a foothold here, we must work harder and more attentively than at home.”

...

After attending the pre-match press conference and returning to the hotel, Mourinho held a tactical meeting to announce tomorrow's lineup and arrange the tactical play against Lazio tomorrow.

The tactical play has always been the 4312 formation of last season. The new players have been training these days. The players are very familiar with it. Mourinho mainly pointed out some details that need to be paid attention to in the game.

The main topic of this meeting is the determination of the location.

This season, Inter Milan has left many players, and many players have also come, and many players are all-rounders. For more than two weeks in the warm-up match, Mourinho has not yet determined a stable lineup.

On the front line, Eto'o, who has been famous for a long time, often partners with Milito, who scored 24 goals in Serie A last season. And teammates ignore.

In the midfielder position, Gao Xiaodong’s only competitor is Stankovic, but Stankovic’s speed is not as good as Gao Xiaodong’s, his long-range shooting is not as good as Gao Xiaodong’s, and his organizational skills are similar. Ability is slightly stronger than Stankovic, plus Gao Xiaodong performed well in the warm-up match, and Mourinho fought hard to snatch the favorite from Ferguson, so no one dares to say anything about Gao Xiaodong.

In the three positions of the midfielder, Cambiasso, the powerful Argentine gang leader, has always been the leader. Stankovic can't compete with Gao Xiaodong in the midfielder position, but he can compete with Muntari in the midfielder position. It is no problem to get a position, and there are many players who can play in the defensive midfielder position. Muntari, Chivu, and Zanetti can all play, and they often play in rotation

In the position of defender and goalkeeper, Cesar has no competitors in the goalkeeper position. Among the four defenders, Maicon's right back is unstoppable, and Lucio's central defender is not much suspense. The rest is another central defender and Not sure about the left back.

Zanetti is the captain, a meritorious player, and he must. What is not sure is which position Zanetti will play.

If Zanetti goes to play left back, then Muntari will have no competitors, and there is no suspense as the third midfielder, but if Zanetti goes to play left back, then teenager Thornton can only be a substitute, so Italy There is only one central defender for the local gang to compete for.

But in this position, the 36-year-old Materazzi basically cannot compete with Samuel and Chivu, who are several years younger than him. Can't find the location either.

If Zanetti goes to play the midfielder, then Thornton can only compete with Chivu for the position of left back, because Chivu has always played central defender in Rome, and Thornton has always been a full-back, so there is still a lot of hope.

This is the first time for Inter Milan to play in Asia, and it is to open up the market. If no Italian player can play, the Italian team will be too shameful. Therefore, seeing that Mourinho is going to announce the lineup, all Italian players are a little bit a little embarrassed. nervous.

Mourinho glanced at the 30 players in the conference room, and felt a little irritated. There were too many players. He always believed that the first team can only have 25 players at most, 23 is the best, but now there are five players who are not in his team. It is within the plan, but these five players have been reluctant to leave. Players like these who are not in his plan, if they are not given a chance to play, they may become landmines in the locker room and affect the unity of the team.

In addition to the players who are not in the plan, the rest of the players also give Mourinho a headache.

The boss Moratti just talked to him. Although Moratti said that he would not interfere with his formation, what he meant was that the Super Cup held in China this time will be given to Italian players. , especially some opportunities for Balotelli and Thornton, young people don't give opportunities how to grow.

The South American gang is very powerful, and Mourinho does not want to let them control all the positions. Once a certain gang grows bigger, the authority of the coach will be damaged, and he will not be able to do whatever he wants in terms of formation and tactics. Yes, as a veteran coach who has been with famous coaches such as Robson and Van Gaal for many years, and has coached Porto and Chelsea, Mourinho is very sensitive to this.

Regarding this, Mourinho thought about it for a long time, and he didn't make a decision until the morning before the game.

"... Let me announce tomorrow's lineup, goalkeeper No. 12 Cesar, right back No. 13 Maicon, center back No. 6 Lucio, No. 26 Chivu, left back No. 39 Thornton...

Hearing Chivu's central defender, Thornton's left back, and the players in the conference room were shocked, except for Gao Xiaodong, almost everyone was discussing in a low voice.

Mourinho was unmoved, and continued to read the list: "...the defensive midfielder is No. 4 Zanetti, the 19th Cambiasso, the No. 5 Stankovic, the front midfielder is No. 10 Gao Xiaodong, and the forward No. 9 is Aye. To'o, Milito on the 22nd..."

After Mourinho announced the list, he said, "If you have any problems, you can go to my room. My room will be open until tomorrow when I go to the Bird's Nest." Then he turned and left the meeting room.

Mourinho left the meeting room, and the meeting room immediately became chaotic.

Argentina slapped the boss Cambiasso on the table and said angrily: "Why can't Samuel, who is better than him in the Inter Milan team?"

Burdy said: "I don't see any rationale for this arrangement."

Cruise said: "The captain played well at the left back position, why did he play as a midfielder?"

There are so many people in the Argentine gang, and you say what you say, pointing the finger at Chivu. Although Chivu was angry, he dared not speak out, stood up, turned and left the conference room.

Although Eto'o has just transferred to Inter Milan, he feels that he is a two-time Champions League winner, and his fame and strength are above the stars of Inter Milan. Therefore, he already regards himself as the boss of the African gang in his heart. No, I hugged Muntari in the past and said loudly: "Don't feel bad for Muntari, I don't think you are worse than anyone else, you can talk to the coach later, or I will go with you."

Muntari was very grateful and said to Eto'o: "Thank you, I don't need you to accompany me, I will go to the coach right away."

Cambiasso raised his head and said, Samuel, who was silent there, said: "Don't be bored like a rock, let's go, let's go and ask the coach, what is the basis for his formation, I think Ah, he thinks that there is a confidant who can play multiple positions, and he wants to attack us old people."

There was something in Cambiasso's words, and the finger was pointed at Gao Xiaodong.

Others are afraid that the Argentine gang has many people, but Gao Xiaodong is not afraid. This is Yanjing. He is a Chinese. How could he be afraid of the South American gang? I don’t have the ability to get it, but it’s my fault, is it easy to bully me?”

Gao Xiaodong directly slapped Cambiasso in the face, the Argentine players were furious, and Burdisso also jumped up, saying: "Boy, keep your mouth clean, or I will beat you carefully."

Gao Xiaodong saw Cruise and Cambiasso walking towards him, he laughed loudly, and said: "If you are singled out, I will let you take turns one by one, relying on the strength of the number of people? Believe it or not , I opened the door to say hello, if a company of people can come over and beat you, don’t forget where you are.”

Balotelli's two hundred and five hit it off with Gao Xiaodong. Seeing that Gao Xiaodong and the Argentine gang were about to fight, he happily ran to Gao Xiaodong's side: "Fight, fight, count me in."

Quaresma is still counting on Gao Xiaodong to help him rise in Inter Milan, so he also stood up and said, "I really want to bully people."

Zanetti saw that Gao Xiaodong was not afraid, Quaresma and Balotelli stood up to help Gao Xiaodong, Materazzi looked unkind, and hurried over to act as a peacemaker, saying: "What is this for? It's a game, but the coach announced the rosters, so let's fight first? The coach said, if you have any questions, ask him. What are you arguing about here?"

Seeing Zanetti's dissuasion, Materazzi came over to persuade Gao Xiaodong, Balotelli, and Quaresma, saying, "Is there civil strife before the game? If you have something to do, go to the coach and go back to sleep."

The team deputy Cordoba went over to advise Cambiasso and others, "Let's say a few words, this matter has nothing to do with Xiaodong Gao. The coach is only a preliminary list. If you have any objections, go to the coach to talk."

The original intention of the Argentine gang was to threaten Gao Xiaodong, and they had no intention of fighting. Gao Xiaodong also didn't want to have a confrontation with the Argentine gang before the Super Cup. The two parties left the conference room under the advice of Materazzi and Cordoba. Gao Xiaodong Go back to the room to rest, and Cambiasso went directly to Mourinho.

With that said, Materazzi came over to Gao Xiaodong, Cambiasso and others,

better play say

I have something to do today and tomorrow, so I can only combine two into one.
