The atmosphere in the office is somewhat silent.

The three of them sat opposite each other. Simeone crossed his legs behind his desk and looked relaxed, but the question was very sharp.

Lindy and Lopez sat side by side.

Lindy said nothing, while Lopez looked at her nose and heart.

Simeone asked a question that neither of them could answer: What happened to the team?

How to explain something like status in words?

The reason football is round is because no matter how strong a team is, there will be times when it is not in good form.

Otherwise the game loses its fun.

What does it mean to have legs and ghosts at the same time?

Not only does it describe the players, it also describes the team.

The current situation is obvious. It seems that in the game when Barcelona tried their best to keep Barcelona, ​​they used too much force, which caused the whole team's condition to be low.

And I kept practicing more and taking breaks, which made me cry out for the past two days.

But Lindy and Lopez can't say.

The locker room has locker room rules. It is a sacred place and nothing that happens inside is allowed to be leaked to the outside world.

And the players and the head coach are not as harmonious as they seem.

Many times, both parties have a cooperative relationship.

After all, the players in a solid camp may be leaving today, and the head coach may be leaving tomorrow.

After all, Ferguson's kind is a rare phenomenon.

And the players Simeone bought in the summer window are not the kind of particularly well-behaved children. Even the loyal Godin is not a child.

Seeing that the two of them were still silent, Simeone couldn't help but speak:

"Don't worry, not a word of our conversation will be spread today."

He desperately wanted to know what happened to the team, but no one could tell him.

Simeone is ready to introduce one of his absolute confidants in the summer window, a young player he once coached in Argentina.

Lopez was a little embarrassed. He glanced at Lindy and then at Simeone, who had bright eyes. He was very conflicted in his heart.

After hesitating again and again, he was about to speak, but found a huge force coming from his right arm.

Then he turned around, only to find that Lindy had spoken first.

"Boss, I think everyone is just too tired."

Simeone saw that under his "coercion", Lopez was about to speak, but Lindy beat him to it.

And Lindy's excuse was so old-fashioned. He frowned, a little sullen.

But Simeone still didn't speak. He just looked directly at Lindy, wanting to see what else he could say.

Feeling the displeasure in Simeone's eyes, Lindy smiled secretly in his heart. I have only been a player for 2 years. What kind of environment have I not experienced?

If he had been a little slower just now, Lopez might have spoken out the private complaints of Aguero and others.

With a character like Simeone's, saying this won't do any good.

Seeing that the opponent still seemed to be waiting for his next move, he thought for a moment and continued: "We fought too hard in that game. Many times, those cramps were not faked by us."

"Boss, you know, everyone is obsessed with the Champions League and Barcelona."

"And this obsession seemed to suddenly, you know... just... disappear during the victory. Everyone suddenly felt a little tired and really needed to relax and have a rest."

Lindy and Simeone looked at each other without any escaping, they were very sincere.

"Really just resting?" Simeone did not ask Lindy, but looked at Lopez, and even Lindy could hear the threat in his tone.

"Uh..." Halfway through the words, another force came from his hand. Lopez glanced at Lindy, but Lindy was watching her nose and heart without saying a word.

"Yes, everyone may need a rest." Lopez's tone was finally full of affirmation.

..

Not long after, the two came out of Simeone's office.

Lindy was okay and stretched at the door, but there was a faint stream of sweat running down Lopez's forehead.

It's still April, the time of year when the weather is the best.

The two of them walked to the locker room of the training ground together.

"If it weren't for you just now, I might have told everything." Lopez wiped the sweat from his forehead.

Lindy naturally knew what Lopez was going to say just now. The schedule has been intensive recently, but the team's training intensity is only a little lower than before.

In the last game against Super Deportivo, it is normal for the team's state to have ups and downs.

You can't completely deny it just because of one game. There was a break and extra training. As a result, the team is now even more tired.

Many people are already complaining privately.

Lindy patted Lopez on the shoulder, "You are the captain of the team!"

After saying that, he went to change clothes and train alone.

What does it mean to leave Lopez alone and stunned?

At this time, Simone was sitting in the office, his face full of anger.

Herman could hear his heavy breathing from the side.

"Did I do something wrong?" Simone looked up suddenly and asked.

Herman shook his head, "There is no right or wrong, Diego, what was it like when we were players? Have you ever thought about it?"

Simeone sneered, "I know what you want to say. The mentality of these kids is too fragile. My team requires absolute obedience and discipline!" He slowly stood up and walked around.

"Without strong execution, how can a club like ours compete with wealthy clubs like Real Madrid and Barcelona?"

As if he had touched on his sore point, Simeone punched the wall hard.

The team photo with him and Torres was shaken and fell down, with broken glass scattered on the floor.

"They just feel that they are very tired. Have they ever thought that the club's achievements require everyone's efforts!"

Simone slowly put down his hand, and Herman saw that there seemed to be a trace of blood, which seemed to be a broken skin.

"It's ridiculous! This is a battle with no turning back!" There was a hint of fatigue in his voice.

“On the 14th, we face Barcelona in the second leg of the Champions League, on the 18th we face Espanyol in La Liga, and on the 21st we face the Copa del Rey final. If we win the Champions League on the 28th, there will be a semi-final! And in between there is a league game against Levante!

"

"Now it's a competition of wills. Whoever can grit his teeth and persevere can go further!"

Having said this, Simeone gritted his teeth and said: "I want them all this season!"

“If you don’t fight for anything, why do you want to play football???”

He raised his head and regained his confidence. This is what Herman admires most about Simeone. His dedication to goals is extraordinary.

Even if he knew he was going to get a bloody blow, he would still try!

"Football taught me a lot, except giving up!"
