An Audi slowly went up the mountain along a winding serpentine path, and soon stopped at the gate of a closed villa.
Barcelona coach Rijkaard got out of the car, walked to the door and rang the doorbell.
"Butch, it's me." Rijkaard said as soon as the intercom on the doorbell was connected.
Soon, the door slowly opened.
Back in the car, Rijkaard drove in and slowly parked on the side of the road.
This luxurious villa located halfway up the mountain is mainly white in style, so Cruyff called himself the "White House".
I bought it a long time ago, but it seems that both the design concept and style are very advanced. Even now, it doesn't look outdated at all. What's more, its value has gone crazy.
Cruyff was sitting under the umbrella with his legs crossed, leisurely sipping coffee and reading the newspaper.
After retirement, he lived a comfortable life more comfortably than anyone else.
Of course, like all retired old people, Cruyff actually annoyed a lot of people, mainly because he made a mistake that many old people make, that is, being nosy.
Unlike the elders at home, Cruyff's way of meddling in Barcelona's business is his column.
This is not only his pleasure, but also his source of income.
Watching games every day, writing columns, giving advice, and scolding Fang Qiu, I feel so uncomfortable!
But many people are disgusted with his approach. For example, Puyol and Xavi have criticized him respectively, but privately everyone still respects him very much because his status in Barcelona is too high.
"Here you come?" Without even raising his head to look at Rijkaard, Cruyff guessed who it was.
Black Swan comes here almost every week. In addition to visiting Cruyff, the most important thing is to learn from him.
In the past two years, Rijkaard has been in dire straits.
Upon hearing Cruyff's question, Rijkaard sighed and sat down directly opposite without saying a word.
Cruyff then raised his head and looked at the Dutch compatriot next door. Looking from his angle, he suddenly realized that Rijkaard was really much older and haggard, especially the white hair.
It's heartbreaking.
Tenkat left the team, and the management made a series of cunning moves. Rijkaard could barely maintain the current situation, but it was already exhausting his efforts. If anyone else came over, it would probably be like this.
"When I told you that I took the initiative to resign, you didn't believe it. Now you know it's troublesome?" Cruyff put down the newspaper in his hand and waved to the butler Bach in the distance, gesturing for him to make a cup of coffee to greet him.
guest.
"Barcelona is in a mess right now, and no strong person can control it at all. What I said at the beginning was indeed unpleasant, but look, is it the same as what I said now?" Cruyff complained.
Rijkaard was speechless because everything Cruyff said was right.
For example, when Barcelona introduced many Brazilian players, Cruyff publicly criticized him in the media. Many people thought that Cruyff was going to help Laporta attack Russell. But now, Cruyff’s words are true.
Prescient.
Now even Rosell doesn't want to protect Ronaldinho and allows him to be attacked by the media. It can be imagined how bad the situation of Brazilian players in the Barcelona team is, and Ronaldinho's attitude in the locker room is
Neo, Deco and others also had great opinions.
At the age of twenty-seven, he has fallen like this. Not only has he let down his talents, but he has received a high salary but failed to make corresponding contributions. How can the people in the locker room be convinced by this?
"Since Su Dong left the team, I told you that this Barcelona management is good at internal fighting and doesn't understand football at all. In other words, they don't bother to understand and don't need to understand football."
Rijkaard now truly appreciates Cruyff's foresight.
"They are approaching Mourinho."
Cruyff was stunned for a moment, then sneered, "What nonsense! What can Mourinho bring to Barcelona?"
"Because of the Sudong incident, Vice Chairman Soriano and Technical Director Begiristain have left. Now there are not many people in the Barcelona management who understand football. Rosell and Bartomeu now feel that the team needs
A strong person should manage the locker room, Mourinho is strong enough, and he is the most famous coach among the current Barcelona coaches."
"More importantly, he has coached at Barcelona before and is very familiar with everything about Barcelona."
"Fart!" Cruyff was angry. "He was just a translator back then. If Ronaldo hadn't just joined, he would have packed up and left. What kind of coaching is that? How does his coaching style look like Barcelona?"
"Mourinho and Van Gaal are the more popular candidates. Some people proposed Guardiola to coach the youth team, but it was rejected because both Rosell and Bartomeu felt that he could not control the locker room.
"
Cruyff looked hesitant, Mourinho was not liked by him, and Van Gaal was his enemy. He didn't like anyone.
As for Guardiola, he has to admit that his former favorite does not seem to have the ability to control the locker room.
"What do you want from me?" Cruyff asked in a bad tone.
He didn't believe that Rijkaard came to him just to complain. This was not Rijkaard's style.
"As long as I am still in this position, I will do my duty well. Frankly speaking, I am a little worried about facing Bayern."
"Soudong?" Cruyff pointed directly to the point.
Rijkaard nodded, "You and I know him very well. He is too strong. Now Bayern is organizing its offense around Su Donglai. I think he is too dangerous."
"Is Marcos Senna really leaving?" Cruyff asked.
"I've signed it and will return to Villarreal after the season."
"Damn it!" Cruyff cursed angrily, "What the hell is this."
Marcos Senna is the main player introduced during Laporta's period, and he is not a direct descendant of Barcelona's youth training, so he was naturally excluded.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! "Puyol and Milito alone may not be able to limit Sudong. Facing Ribery and Robben on both sides, they certainly cannot be separated.
I can only ask Yaya Tured to pay more attention to this kid. He has a good body, strong foot skills, and flexible body, but he is a bit impetuous and reckless. If he can stabilize, he can help the two central defenders restrict Su Dong.
."
"I think so too, and I am studying how to arrange targeted tactics and drills." Rijkaard said with a bitter look on his face.
Cruyff sighed. If Tenkat was here, he would do all the hard work, and Rijkaard would not have to worry at all, let alone come to Cruyff for help.
Some people are like this. You don't notice them when they are there. Only when they leave do you realize that they are so important.
Su Dong was like this, and so was Tenkat.

Messi returned to Barcelona from Argentina earlier than planned.
But there was one more person when I came back than when I left.
A delicate girl who was slightly shorter than Messi and had long hair was holding Messi's arm, and the two were talking and laughing all the way.
Jorge had already driven his car and was waiting at the airport gate. After picking up the person, he left the airport directly.
"Why did you come back early?" Jorge asked with concern.
On the phone, Messi did not elaborate on the reason, which made him feel strange.
Messi turned his head and looked out the window, which was the Barcelona he was extremely familiar with.
"He's coming back!"
Jorge was silent for a while. He knew about Messi and Su Dong's friendship, so why didn't he?
If it weren't for Su Dong and Messi was still unknown, would they still be able to live in this villa now?
Jorge will always remember Su Dong's kindness to them.
But he felt that Messi was more worried.
"Don't worry, Rijkaard will definitely have a way to deal with it." Jorge comforted him.
Messi shook his head and let out a long sigh. He knew Su Dong too well.
From the day he left Barcelona, Su Dong has been waiting for the day to return to Camp Nou. He must be 1,000 percent ready. Even this game may be more important to him than
The Champions League final is still important.
If given the choice, Messi hopes that Barcelona will draw any opponent, but it will definitely not be Bayern.
Because Su Dong is too scary!
"I heard from the media that Rijkaard went to Cruyff yesterday for advice. I believe there will be a solution," Jorge said.
Messi's expression improved slightly, but he was still worried.
Cruyff is experienced, but can he really limit Su Dong?
Messi didn't dare to have high hopes because he had played alongside Su Dong and he knew that Su Dong was always creating surprises and surprises.
As long as Su Dong is willing, he can score goals anywhere on the court, at any time, and in any way, and it will be difficult for anyone to stop him.
"Would you like to meet him before the game?" Jorge asked.
Messi wanted to meet him. After all, he had called Su Dong before and directly loaned him Grant Downing. Su Dong was so loyal to him that he had nothing to say. If possible, he would not want to argue with Su Dong under any circumstances.
enemy.
But they are professional players!
"Forget it, we'll talk about it after the game. Don't disturb him at this time." Messi shook his head.
The girl sitting next to him was confused, but she vaguely guessed who it was.
In the past few years, on the phone, on social media, and even recently in Argentina, the name Messi mentioned the most was the name that is well known all over the world, Sudong, whom he regards as his elder brother.
"Is he really that scary?" the girl asked with concern.
"It's scary, very scary!" Messi patted the girl's hand and said with a smile.
Only when he sees her, Macy's smile will be so gentle.
"Stronger than you?" the girl asked again.
Messi thought for a while and said: "He taught me many of my skills. In my mind and in the minds of people all over the world, he is the strongest player on the planet."
The girl was very curious. She didn't know what a player better than Messi would look like.
…………
…………
On the night that Messi quietly returned to Barcelona, Bayern's special plane also quietly arrived at Barcelona Airport.
Not long after, Su Dong slowly walked out of the cabin with everyone, got off the gangway, and stepped onto the soil of Barcelona again.
He raised his head and looked at the night sky of Barcelona, his heart filled with turmoil.
