Appearing in Monte Carlo with the entire Inter Milan team was Charlotte.
However, because Materazzi was injured and had to rest for ten days and stayed in Milan to recuperate, Charlotte also followed the team to Monte Carlo. Several players also chatted with Charlotte on the plane.
It was a joke, but most of the players were very self-disciplined and didn't say much. After getting off the plane, Charlotte left the airport surrounded by people sent by the Monaco royal family. She just called Dick
wave.
However, just these actions of Charlotte waving and Dick nodding were quickly photographed by the reporters ambushing outside the airport, and then it was as if they had found a treasure...
"Well, the game is in two days. I'll give you a day off after today's training... But remember, don't gamble too much when you go to the casino. Don't forget who runs the Monte Carlo Casino. If you gamble too much,
If you do, I think someone will throw you out, do you understand?"
Dick said to all the players in the hotel lobby.
The players were stunned for a moment, and then immediately remembered that the largest shareholder of the Monte Carlo Casino is the Monaco royal family... Dick's words really weren't a threat to them...
"You don't need to threaten them... just ask them not to go out at night." Marina asked a little strangely.
"Why aren't they allowed to go out? It's the first time for many of them to come here for the Super Bowl. What's the problem with hanging out? It doesn't matter if they gamble a few times, as long as it's not the kind of gambling that will break the bank...
...It's normal to relax before a big war. As long as they don't relax during training, I don't care about the rest. Besides, when we go to the lottery ceremony, we can't let them stay bored in the hotel." Dick hehe.
laughed.
"...Who are they?" Marina said warily.
"We, as my assistant coach, it is normal for you to go to the lottery ceremony with me." Dick laughed.
"Why do I have to go draw lots with you when they can go play?" Marina quit.
"Your wife told me that you are not allowed to go out and fool around, so I have to give you a good shake, otherwise I won't be able to bear it if your wife comes to the door." Dick replied.
"Nonsense, my wife will ask you to keep an eye on me so I don't go fooling around? You are a veteran at nightclubs, okay?" Marina was angry.
"Now that I have changed my mind and become a new person, I naturally cannot let you repeat the wrong path I took." Dick said sadly: "In order to save you, you see how much sacrifice I have made."
Marriner looked at Dick speechlessly. Of course he knew that Dick was talking nonsense, but... he always talked nonsense in front of him. Do you think I am easy to bully?
But joking aside, going to the Champions Cup draw with Dick is something that Marriner is happy to do. At least as Dick's results get better and better, Marriner begins to receive more people's attention.
In the past few years, many mid-level clubs wanted to hire him to coach the team, but Marriner rejected them all. It was not that he was loyal to Dick, but that he had already
He has been an assistant coach for almost ten years. He has worked as an assistant coach of Atletico Madrid's first team and as an assistant coach of the youth team, but he has never shown any ability to coach independently. Now he knows better that he can now have the ability to coach independently.
So many teams come to invite him, more because he is beside Dick and has Dick's aura - if he goes to other teams, he may not be able to achieve any results as a coach, not to mention that in terms of income, now
Dick has to pay him a salary of almost one million euros a year. If he goes to coach an ordinary mid-to-lower team, he may not be able to get such a salary.
Marriner is not an ambitious person, he just wants to do his job diligently, get a good salary by Dick's side, don't have to worry about other things, and get a lot of honors, what else does he pursue?
What's more, he sees what Dick is doing now, constantly making money, for the purpose of joining Atletico Madrid in the future... Dick has never forgotten his previous promise, and he will not forget it either.
After a day of training, Dick and Marriner arrived at the gate of the hotel where the UEFA draw was held. After getting off the bus, a group of reporters immediately surrounded them. Dick did not leave quickly, but stood there with a smile.
Waiting for reporters to take photos.
It wasn't until the reporters had finished taking pictures that Dick stretched out his hands and made a "V" gesture at the same time, and then said: "Let me tell you, I'm back on the Champions Cup court."
"Dick is back!" At this moment, such a picture flashed through the minds of many reporters. Now Dick's momentum has indeed risen. At the moment when he stretched out his hands to gesture, the reporters seemed to
I felt the unparalleled momentum that a king burst out after stepping onto the battlefield that belonged to him again!
This is the advantage accumulated by Dick's four European championships in the past five years!
And this is something that UEFA is quite worried about. Fortunately, Dick likes to run around. Otherwise, the European championship will always be monopolized by one club, which would be even more difficult to say. Now it is just Dick who wins more, then there is no choice.
It’s true that the opponent is awesome, and it’s not like UEFA has not imposed restrictions on Dick, but this guy can win, so what can you do?
When Dick and Marina entered the hall, many people immediately paid attention to them.
Marriner is self-aware, he knows that these people are not looking at him, but Dick - only this crazy plundering guy, so that all these famous coaches have nothing to rob in the past few seasons.
Well, Champions League? Dick won two. In the previous two years, if Dortmund's strength had not declined significantly in the second season, and Inter Milan was playing in the UEFA Cup again, Mourinho and Benitez would probably
There is no way to win the two Champions League championships.
At this time, the two glances coming from the left and right came from these two coaches who had won the Champions League in the previous two years - Benitez was sitting on the right side of the hall, and Mourinho was sitting on the right side of the hall.
Ao was sitting on the left side of the hall. They both looked up at Dick at the same time, and then withdrew their gazes.
Dick noticed their gazes, he smiled slightly, and then walked over, not going to the left or right, but sitting down in the middle seat openly.
After sitting down, Dick looked around at the familiar faces, and then said with a smile: "Everyone, I'm back!"
The head coaches have all remained silent, but it is obvious that they were much more relaxed when Dick went to play in the League Cup last season, but unfortunately... this guy is back again!
Suddenly, all the coaches had the same hatred - this gesture of sitting down and expressing their desire for the Champions League championship is really annoying - why, do you think this championship is
It must be yours?
"For the prize money of 17 million euros, this championship will definitely be mine!" Dick thought in his heart.
Dick came neither too early nor too late. After him, the remaining coaches who did not come also came one after another. It was also at this time that the draw for this season's Champions League officially began!
"Do you think we will be assigned to a group of death? I think either we will be assigned to a group of death in the group stage, or we will be assigned to a very easy group in the group stage. There will be no other possibilities.
." Dick said to Marriner with a low smile.
"Why?" Marriner was a little confused. He could understand that he was assigned to a death group. It was something that many people liked to see, but how could he be assigned to a very easy group? This kind of preferential treatment did not seem to be Dick's.
What you can enjoy...
"If you play easily in the group stage, you are likely to fail in the knockout rounds." Dick gave the answer.
While the two were chatting, the draw ceremony was about to begin - although Inter Milan missed the Champions League last season, they won the UEFA Cup, which made their European War points not too low.
They are still ranked among the seeded teams. Also among the seeded teams are last year's champion Liverpool, Manchester United and Arsenal, La Liga's top two Real Madrid and Barcelona, Serie A's AC Milan and Bundesliga's Bayern. This is
The club with the most points and the best performance in the past few years.
The second-tier teams are a bit more exciting.
The existence of Chelsea and Juventus alone makes the group of death possible. Add in teams such as Porto, Eindhoven, Ajax, Lyon, etc., and the second-tier teams are definitely not considered
Weak, the strong teams in the third level include two Bundesliga teams, Schalke 04 and Werder Bremen. Dortmund did not play well last season and only ranked fourth in the league. They lost the opportunity to participate in the Champions League.
Things have been deteriorating for them since Dick left, but the economy is gradually improving and is not as bad as it was historically.
The teams in the fourth tier include strong teams such as Benfica, Real Betis and Udinese.
The first-tier teams were drawn, and Inter Milan was placed in Group G. Then, when the third-tier teams were drawn, Anderlecht from Belgium was in the same group.
"It's okay, but we are very unfamiliar with this team..." Dick said obediently after getting an advantage.
Marriner couldn't laugh. What he wanted to see was the second level grouping.
Inter Milan will not be placed in the same group as Juventus. In fact, Juventus was drawn out first. They were placed in the same group as Bayern, followed by Ajax, Panathinaikos,
Villarreal, PSV, Lyon...
Everyone's attention is focused on the next draw. The remaining two second-tier teams are Chelsea and Porto - if they are placed in the same group as Chelsea, this group will be a group of death.
, it would be easier if it was Porto, because the current Porto is no longer the Porto led by Mourinho, and most of the main players of that Porto have gone to other teams.
Mourinho moved his body uncomfortably. In fact, it would not be easy for Chelsea no matter which group they were placed in. Being in the same group as Dick's Inter Milan? It was very unpleasant, and the third in the last group
The first-tier team is Liverpool...
Because Liverpool is a UEFA Champions League franchised as a wild card, and because they won the Champions League last season but only finished fifth in the Premier League, UEFA wanted to ask Everton to develop their style but was directly rejected, so Everton
Donton met Villarreal in the qualifiers and was eliminated. Liverpool added...
"Chelsea." Platini soon revealed the answer.
When Mourinho looked at Dick, Dick shook his head - it was obvious that this was a death group...
Sure enough, the fourth-tier team is Real Betis from La Liga!
