Dick was not doing anything at this time. He was just working at his desk, observing the information of the next opponent, Salamanca. Through the last game, Dick not only gained confidence in his tactics, but also understood
One thing is that no matter how good the tactics are, you need to take the right medicine. In the last game, it was because the opponent was relatively mediocre and there was no room for tactical changes, so you could easily reverse the situation. But next time, if you still attack the opponent before the game starts,
Without knowing anything about the strength and characteristics, it would be too difficult to rely on observations in the first half and adjustments at halftime to deal with the opponent.
It is said that knowing yourself and the enemy means you will win every battle. How can you improve your winning rate without understanding your opponent?
However, even though Dick has assigned Marriner a task to collect information about the next opponent, it cannot be done in a day or two. If it has been arranged before, scouting during his team's game
We have already gone to observe the next opponent's game and collect the opponent's intelligence. Then we can start formulating tactics immediately after the game, and then conduct tactical arrangements and training for the players. This is the right way - but this task is in Atletico Madrid.
It was only arranged when the second team was playing. Even if Atletico Madrid's second team's scouts were efficient, they would not have information for Dick so quickly.
But at this time, when it was time to sleep, someone brought a pillow - after the game, Dick returned to his apartment and received the reward for winning the game.
A low-level investigation card, which can be used to obtain the latest information about the next opponent.
After using this survey card, a large stack of information about the next opponent Salamanca immediately appeared on Dick's desk, including the opponent's main lineup and player characteristics, which were written in considerable detail.
"Damn, this thing is really useful. I wish I could get it after every game... But this is the elementary one? What is the use of the advanced one?" Dick looked at the large pile of information in front of him and couldn't help but wonder.
I feel a little regretful - such a useful thing should be used before the important game starts...
But since you have used it, there is no point in regretting it. It just so happens that this information is of no value if it is not used before the game starts, so it is useless if you don't use it.
So Dick basically stayed at home these two days. He ate breakfast and lunch in the canteen of the youth training camp during the day, and ate fast food from a nearby supermarket for dinner. After two days of research, he finally
The opponent's situation was almost studied. At this time, the information sent by the scouts had also arrived. Dick flipped through it twice and found that it was similar to the information obtained from the investigation card.
"Well, more advanced investigation cards will probably be more detailed? After all, Atletico Madrid's second team does not have very good scouts. What they collect is nothing more than the opponent's personnel information that can be seen in FM. As long as Atletico Madrid's second team
The team's intelligence collection is on track, and this low-level investigation card is probably useless." Dick thought in his mind.
Although such a survey card didn't seem to be of much use, Dick saw the possibility - the cards that might appear after winning the game would definitely not be limited to scoring goals. There should be a variety of cards, including
If you have a goal card, there may be an erasure card, such as erasing a goal from the opponent. Dick already has a lot of confidence in his tactical command ability, and with the help of these small cards... hum.
Humph, doesn’t the possibility of winning increase a lot?
Dick knows deeply that as a simple head coach, the best way to stabilize his position and increase his income is to continuously lead the team to victory - it does not necessarily require a good relationship with the chairman, as long as he can continuously lead the team to victory.
If he leads the team to win, even if he has a bad relationship with the chairman, more teams will line up to ask him to coach...
In this circle, a head coach who can lead his team to win is considered awesome.
Originally, the team had resumed training yesterday, but Dick told Marriner that he wanted to study the opponent's intelligence. He did not go to the training ground at all, but handed over all the training content to Marriner. He has already studied it today.
It was almost done, and Dick also felt that he should go to the training ground to take a look.
After observing the opponent's information day and night for the past two days, Dick began to become unkempt. For some reason, his nails and beard seemed to start to grow very quickly after his rebirth. In just two days, the hair on his chin
His beard had become like weeds again, and Dick felt a little distressed when he heard the sound of the electric shaver, which was like cutting grass.
After finally packing up, Dick opened the door and walked to the training ground. As soon as he arrived at the training ground, Marriner told him that Mr. Hill, the general manager of the club, asked him to go to the office to talk.
"Damn it, what are you talking to me about if you have nothing to do? It's delayed my work. Can he bear this responsibility?"
Of course, Dick muttered this in his stomach but did not say it out loud. After all, he is also the general manager of the club. If he wants to delay his work, he seems to have more confidence.
After telling Marriner a few words and asking him to practice some set-piece tactics today, Dick walked out of the youth training camp and prepared to call a car to go to Atletico Madrid headquarters to meet with Hill Jr.
As a result, as soon as he walked out of the gate of the youth training camp, he was immediately blinded by a flash of lights. More than a dozen reporters immediately rushed up to him. Countless microphones were pointed at his mouth, asking each other random topics, and their voices were mixed together.
, so that Dick couldn't understand what they were talking about...
"Stop it all!"
Dick suddenly yelled, then opened his arms and pushed the two closest reporters out: "What are you going to do? If you have any questions, please come one by one, in English, understand? Spanish, I'm fucking right now
I still don’t understand it very well!”
After Dick yelled these words in English, the scene became quiet, and then a reporter immediately said loudly in English: "Mr. Dick, is what the newspapers said these days true?"
"What did the newspaper say?" Dick was stunned - he couldn't care less about reading the newspaper in these two days...
"It's that thing you made a bet with World Sports reporter Rodriguez..." another reporter reminded, while everyone else scolded Dick in their hearts for showing off - didn't you hide in the room and watch?
Are you secretly enjoying yourself in the newspaper? Do you think you have become famous overnight?
This was really an injustice to Dick. He really hadn't read the newspaper in the past few days.
"That's it... of course it's true." Dick nodded: "Yes, I made a bet with him. I don't think Barcelona can win any official championship this season."
"Is it true that you would run naked around downtown Madrid if you lose?" a reporter asked excitedly.
"I think you should prepare your camera to take a picture of Mr. Rodriguez eating a microphone. Many people have eaten live on TV, but it seems that there has never been a live broadcast of people eating a microphone... Such a big microphone has metal
Thread, sponge foam and plastic shell, it will definitely taste delicious. If I were a food store owner, I would definitely launch a microphone-shaped pastry called 'Enjoy with Mr. Rodriguez'. This idea
I don’t want the money anymore, whoever wants it can take it.” Dick curled his lips and replied.
After answering these questions, Dick stood on the side of the road waiting for a taxi to arrive. The reporters were still pestering him, and Dick shouted angrily: "Gentlemen, I am in a hurry to see my boss."
My boss, Mr. Hill, the general manager of the club, if you lose your job because you are late, please be careful that I go to one newspaper office after another, and if there is no food to eat, I will look to you to take care of the food!"
This big killer weapon of "I'll eat at your house if I lose my job" really worked. The reporters stopped one after another and looked at him with very strange eyes.
"Mr. Dick, you won't be able to wait for a taxi here..."
Musampa walked out of the crowd: "We all call for taxis, have you called?"
"What the hell, you still have to call?" Dick was a little dumbfounded, and then he shook his head.
"Okay, I'll take you there." Musampa flashed the key in his hand: "I just happen to be going to Atletico Madrid's headquarters."
"Then I won't be polite." Dick didn't say much. Although he recognized Musampa as the reporter who asked a question that made him feel a little uncomfortable at the press conference, he did not talk to him like other reporters.
If Dick is in trouble, Dick will naturally not be in trouble with him.
Musampa smiled, then got into his broadcast truck with Dick, and then drove away.
"Tch, this guy Musampa actually wants to please the head coach of the second team. He has no future." Many reporters who knew Musampa shook their heads and said, "The purpose of their coming today has been achieved, so they can go back to work."
.
"Let me know, I am Alejandro Musampa, a reporter from Marca." Musampa said to Dick while driving.
"I am Dick, the coach of Atletico Madrid's second team, the best coach in the world in the future." Dick replied.
Musampa choked, could this guy be such an arrogant person... But thinking about his attitude towards the World Sports reporter, Musampa almost understood what kind of character Dick was - extremely confident,
Extremely vindictive, if you offend him, he will always remember it in his heart...
"That bet... do you have a lot of confidence? You must know that Barcelona has been the league champion in the previous two seasons, and this season it will set out to win the Triple Crown..." Musampa asked tentatively.
"It's because they are heading towards the Triple Crown, so they are very likely to get nothing." Dick said it smoothly, and then immediately covered his mouth.
Musampa frowned, then turned to look at him, feeling a little enlightened.
"Please don't reveal it." Dick whispered: "If they are alert, I'm afraid I will have to run around naked."
Musampa nodded: "I won't reveal it... As a Madrid native, I don't want to see Barcelona win any championship."
"Are you a Real Madrid fan?" Dick asked strangely.
"No." Musampa shook his head: "I am an Atletico Madrid fan... Whether Real Madrid or Barcelona fail to win the championship, that is what I want to see, and I also do not want to see the head coach of Atletico Madrid's second team.
The coach is going for a streaking run downtown."
"That's good." Dick laughed. Although he didn't completely believe Musampa, but anyway, since they said they wouldn't reveal it, let's trust others for the time being. Besides, even if it's revealed,
Will Barcelona really be more vigilant if they go out? You must know that after winning two consecutive league championships but being eliminated in the Champions League group stage for two consecutive years, it is normal for Barcelona to focus on the Champions League, and
Now there are signs of internal strife in Barcelona. Van Gaal reuses the Dutch gang and ignores local players. It is certain that the team's combat effectiveness has declined. In addition, Figo and Rivaldo are dissatisfied with their low salaries...Barcelona
