Dick knew why Moratti made such big concessions, but Inter Milan in the next few years was indeed the best-run Inter Milan. Although it was still unprofessional in many places, it had the foundation and foundation laid by Moratti in the past few years.
Despite his reputation, Dick is still confident that he can do his best.
The contract has not been signed yet, but as long as the contract stipulates that he will be in control of everything about the team and all transfers will be controlled by him, then Dick will also be confident in building a top-notch team.
Although compared with the Bundesliga teams, the Serie A teams are full of shady affairs, and there are endless accounts and other things, but Dick is not a person with moral hygiene. As long as it does not affect his power, let the club do the accounting and other things.
Just do it, the whole Serie A is like this anyway, and he won’t want to be a guy who challenges the whole world.
Of course, the contract has not yet been finalized and everything is unknown.
He asked Moratti not to fire Cooper for the time being, entirely out of consideration for the team as a whole. Historically, after Cooper was dismissed from get out of class, a crazy Zach Zaccheroni came who had completely opposite characteristics to him, and only wanted to attack.
, and then a more mediocre Mancini came in the new season. Not only did he have to pay the salaries of three head coaches at the same time, but under such circumstances, the entire team was torn down and rebuilt. I don’t know how complicated the situation was.
And if Cooper finishes this season, at least what will be left is a complete Inter Milan. When the time comes, he can sell some, introduce some, and win over some core players, and he can repeat the process at Atletico Madrid, as long as Moratti can continue to support
He, he has the confidence to turn Inter Milan into a piece of iron!
Now Inter Milan's Barbecue Gang is only a small circle of strength. Dick's headache is the cliques in the locker room. He doesn't have much experience in this situation. When he was at Atletico Madrid, Kiko was kicked by him from the beginning.
With the support of old Hill, he can do whatever he says in the club. After coming to Dortmund, he also had the support of the top management, and he easily reorganized the team. The situation of Inter Milan is worse than
Both teams are much more complicated, and he doesn't want to put a lot of energy into internal friction after taking over, but he doesn't have that much energy!
Dick led the team back to Dortmund the next day. Of course, training was not allowed on this day, so after returning to Dortmund, the players went back to their homes, while Dick came to the chairman's office.
"Di, come to me today, what's the matter?" Watzke was looking at the club's financial statements. He couldn't be a chairman who gave up. Dortmund's finances still relied on him to gradually turn around.
"Oh, I have something to discuss with Mr. Chairman."
Dick closed the office door and sat down in front of Watzke.
Watzke put down the report, then took off his glasses and looked at Dick.
"Inter Milan wants me to coach." Dick said straight to the point.
Watzk's hand shook and he almost broke the glasses in his hand: "What? Di? Do you want to leave in the winter? What about the team? Where can we find your successor temporarily?"
"Don't be nervous, Mr. Chairman, I didn't promise them." Dick laughed loudly: "Besides, I am still prepared to receive the bonus. At least, I will finish coaching this season."
"Oh." Watzk let out a long breath. It was not that he couldn't think of this, but Dick's sudden words just now were a little too startling, so he didn't expect...
"So, are you planning to leave in the summer?" Watzke put on his glasses again and asked Dick.
"I have this idea." Dick didn't want to hide it, but nodded: "But I have to discuss it with you first. If you really don't want me to leave, there is no problem if I fulfill the contract."
"No, Di, we said in the summer that if you want to leave, Dortmund will not stay, because now Dortmund can't give you a chance to display your talents... And to be honest, now that you are in Dortmund, it is a bit of a waste. You
Last season brought us the Champions League and saved us a lot of money in the transfer market to redeem the ownership of the stadium... You have done enough for all this, and Dortmund should thank you. Moreover, you can
Knowing this in advance allows us to prepare in advance.”
"Thank you for your understanding." Dick nodded. It was quite comfortable to deal with these Germans. At least they did a good job of getting together and breaking up.
"Before I leave, I will leave behind another league championship...well, there is also the German Cup. I haven't won this championship yet, so I can't leave any regrets." Dick said with a smile.
"Have you never thought about winning another Champions League?" Watzke asked.
"I have thought about it...but this is not something that can be done just by thinking about it. Dortmund's current strength is indeed not enough to win the Champions League. We can only take it one step at a time. Although we defeated AC Milan, there are still big differences.
Winning the Champions League is not a simple matter due to luck."
Watzk nodded regretfully: "We know too...but we always count on you to bring some more magical performances."
"I'm not that magical." Dick shrugged: "No matter how strong I am, there is a limit... It's already very difficult for Dortmund to win the league championship now, but the Champions League... can win
Just go as far as you can.”
"I'm too greedy." Watzke laughed: "I cashed out more than 80 million in the transfer market, and won the Champions League... How can there be such a good thing."
"I'm leaving first." Dick stopped talking nonsense and stood up: "Anyway, I still thank Dortmund."
"No, Dortmund should be the one thanking you." Watzke shook hands with him tightly: "There are still seven months left... I will cherish this time."
After coming out of Watzke's office, Dick let out a long sigh.
It was indeed a pleasure to stay in Dortmund, but although the pavilion is nice, it is not a place to stay for a long time. Dortmund is not the same, and neither is Inter Milan.
This period of time is just a time for him to accumulate strength. One day in the future, he will return to Atletico Madrid as a savior!
Before that, he still has to work harder!
Not many people knew about this kind of conversation. From the outside, the following season continued to move forward normally, like a river without even a wave.
Two days after returning to Dortmund, Dortmund ushered in the tenth round of the Bundesliga and challenged Bochum away from home. Although Dortmund played a very exciting and tiring game in midweek, the players did not seem to be greatly affected.
.
In this game, Dick continued to start Arshavin, but hid Olic, allowing Donovan and Gomez to appear on the front line together. Borowski was rotated in the midfield, and Ricken got the chance to play.
opportunity.
Bochum is in the middle of the pack this season, but this team's offensive power is quite good, with 19 goals in ten league rounds. In this game, they are at home, so naturally they are not to be outdone.
In an offensive battle, Dortmund defeated Bochum with a score of 4 to 2. Although Bochum scored first, Dortmund still defeated the opponent with a fast attack. Donovan and Gogo
Max scored one goal each in the first half. Shortly after the start of the second half, Warnes' header expanded the lead to 3-1. Although Bochum got a point back, Dede stepped in from the back row.
The subsequent shot fixed the score at 4-2.
After winning this game, Dortmund continued to put pressure on the top two in the third position, while Werder Bremen and Bayern were not to be outdone. They also won this round and were closely chasing behind Dortmund.
Bremen and Dortmund have the same points, Bayern is only one point less than Dortmund, and the number one Leverkusen is only three points more than Dortmund. Stuttgart is two points higher than Dortmund. This stalemate situation proves on the one hand that
The competition for the Bundesliga this season is fierce. On the other hand, it also proves that the dominance of Bayern and Dortmund is declining...
Bayern is in the throes of labor pains. With Markay replacing Elber, the striker still needs to adapt. Dortmund is undergoing a complete overhaul, so other clubs will naturally take the lead.
Dortmund's current momentum is good. After winning this round of the league, they met the Bundesliga team Monchengladbach in the second round of the German Cup. However, Monchengladbach's current situation in the league is not good, and they are currently ranked last.
Second, there is naturally not much energy to play in the German Cup, so although Dick rotated most of the main players in this game and most of the players were resting, they still relied on Olic and Ewe
Don's goal defeated Monchengladbach 2-1 away from home and advanced to the third round of the German Cup.
The German Cup match will hardly cause Dortmund too much trouble, because their main players got enough rest time. In the eleventh round of the league the following weekend, Dortmund won again. They won this league very thrillingly.
Barbarets' goal in the 14th minute brought silence to the Westfalenstadion, and in the 60th minute, Romeo's goal gave Hamburg a two-goal lead. However, in the next ten minutes,
Within minutes, Dortmund completed an incredible reversal!
Four minutes after Hamburg scored, Alves, who assisted, broke through the defense of the opponent's full-back and then passed the ball low into the penalty area. Gomez followed up and pushed the ball back to get one point back.
Just when Hamburg was still at a loss, Dortmund's quick attack quickly created another opportunity. A minute later, Arshavin dribbled the ball into the penalty area. The Hamburg defender hurriedly brought him to the ground.
The referee awarded a penalty kick, and Arshavin scored in one stroke to equalize the score!
The bigger blow came three minutes later when the brave Arshavin passed two people in the penalty area, and then used a beautiful kick to score the ball into the dead center of the goal. It was 3-2, and Dortmund took the lead!
In the 64th minute, the 66th minute, and the 69th minute, Dortmund miraculously scored three goals in five minutes, completing this almost incredible reversal!
"This game was a dream...Arshavin once again proved his quality! Confidence? I certainly have confidence in my team, no matter what the situation. Because they have proven many times what they have
The strength! Now we are still third, but the first place is only two points ahead of us, which is also a huge improvement for us."
In this round of the league, Leverkusen, who was originally ranked first, suffered a draw, which left them with only one point ahead of Dortmund and slipped to second place. Stuttgart returned to first place, and Bayern was
They lost to Schalke in the away game and are already four points behind Dortmund... Dortmund's current situation is indeed good.
