Football: start copying peak Messi attributes

Chapter 348 Manchester City invited Guardiola to coach, shocking the entire football world!

"The defending champion is in a sluggish state and was tied by the relegation team! "

"Manchester City is in a trough, the Blues may top the list! "

After the game, the outside world scrambled to report the game.

For many people, Manchester City's away draw by a relegation team is definitely a huge upset.

And if it weren't for Lin Quan's performance against the sky, and he scored two goals alone to save the team, Manchester City might have lost.

Before the start of this round, the Blues Chelsea were only 2 points behind Manchester City.

Now that Manchester City is tied, as long as they can win Liverpool away, they can tie Manchester City in points.

In Anfield Stadium, after nine 10 minutes of the game, the final score on the stadium scoreboard was 1:2.
The home team is at the front and the visiting team is at the back.

The Red Army failed to defend their home court, and was chased by the Blue Army for 2 consecutive goals when they scored the first goal. They were reversed and lost the red-blue battle.

So far, Chelsea has finally tied Manchester City in the standings.

It's just behind Manchester City on goal difference, temporarily ranking No.2.

But the current state of the two teams can be described as very different, Chelsea has won two consecutive victories.

And Manchester City has fallen into a trough recently, losing successively in the League Cup and the league.

In the absence of a coach, whether they can win the next game, I'm afraid even Manchester City themselves can't say for sure.

With the news of Pellegrini's resignation made public, there is no news of Manchester City's head coach, which is widely rumored in football.

This time point is very embarrassing, and the famous coaches basically have their own names.

Except for Ranieri, the tinkerer who was fired not long ago, there is no good idle coach in the market.

And Ranieri has long been proven not good at leading giants, and finding him to coach Manchester City is not the best choice for both parties.

Therefore, Manchester City can only temporarily let assistant coach Bryan act as the coach temporarily.

At the same time, they began to contact other famous managers privately to see if they could bring them to Manchester during the winter break.

Among them, the first thing Manchester City thinks of is Lin Quan's adoptive father Guardiola.

On November 11, before the start of the 21th round of the Premier League.

In an estate outside Munich, Guardiola met an old acquaintance.

"Mr. Chairman, why are you here?"

Guardiola was a little surprised to see Manchester City Chairman Fahim appearing outside his manor.

Because of Lin Quan's relationship, Guardiola has had contact with the Manchester City club.

When Mansur personally went to Munich to recruit their father and son, Fahim was by Mansur's side, and the two had already met at that time.

"Hehe, the situation is urgent, so I can only come forward in person!"

Seeing that Guardiola did not refuse to contact him, Fahim was slightly relieved.

He had inquired about the situation in the Bundesliga before he came. Guardiola's life at Bayern was not comfortable.

Although Bayern's record in the league is as stable as ever, Bayern has remained unbeaten until the 12th round of the Bundesliga, and it is far ahead of No.2 in the standings.

At the moment when Dortmund is gradually declining and other teams have failed to rise successfully, there are almost no teams in the entire Bundesliga that can pose a threat to Bayern.

Therefore, even if half of the schedule is not finished yet, Bayern can almost announce that they have locked the championship ahead of time and completed the feat of 3 consecutive championships.

However, Guardiola's ability to control the team has greatly declined, and the situation is getting worse day by day.

The reason is that on the one hand, his reforms have caused dissatisfaction among many players.

And Guardiola is not good at handling the relationship with the players in the team. He always mentions Lin Quan and Messi in training, which makes the players very disgusted.

Secondly, Guardiola always likes to make players transform. For example, he likes to change the midfielder to play as a central defender.

Mascherano of Barcelona and Martinez of Bayern were all transformed under his request.

It's okay to say that this kind of transformation is successful, but if it doesn't succeed, the player will be abolished.

Martinez has been suffering from constant injuries this season, and it is hard to say that it has nothing to do with changing his position and style of play.

In addition, the disastrous defeat of the German team in the World Cup has led to increasing calls for German football to set things right.

Under such circumstances, the relaxed atmosphere of foreign monks chanting scriptures in previous years no longer exists.

Whether it is the fans or the club level, Guardiola is no longer friendly.

The combination of these factors has caused Guardiola's current predicament.

The reason why Fahim went out in person was because he felt that the possibility of persuading Guardiola to join the team was the greatest.

And Guardiola is very suitable for Manchester City in terms of ability and tactical style.

In particular, his close relationship with Lin Quan and the appreciation of the team's big boss gave him a favorable position in the competition with other famous coaches.

Therefore, if Guardiola can be persuaded to join Manchester City during the winter break, it will be the best result for both parties.

"Please come in!"

Guardiola shrugged, he basically guessed the opponent's intentions.

The turmoil of Manchester City's coaching change spread to Germany a week ago, and Guardiola has been secretly paying attention to Lin Quan's situation, so he knew the news earlier than others.

"Time is running out, so I won't go around in circles!"

After entering the room, Fahim said to Guardiola straight to the point:
"We hope to invite Mr. Guardiola to Manchester City to coach this winter!"

Fahim was indeed direct enough. He didn't talk nonsense after entering the door, and directly explained his purpose of coming.

Seeing that there is only one month left in the winter break, the time left for Manchester City to choose a coach is getting shorter and shorter.

If they can't choose a suitable coach before the Champions League knockout, then this year's Champions League may be very difficult.

Not only did Guardiola not feel disgusted with Manchester City's direct attitude, but he also appreciated it.

Both parties are very busy and have a lot to attend to.

He doesn't have time to accompany the other party here to make false claims.

"Hehe, thank you, Mr. Chairman, for your frankness, but I haven't considered whether to go to the Premier League to coach..."

Hearing Guardiola's words, Fahim's eyes dimmed.

Is this considered a polite refusal?

He was full of confidence when he came, thinking that with Lin Quan's relationship, it should be relatively easy to persuade Guardiola to join.

It seems that I still think it is too simple!

"However, I personally do not reject cooperation with Manchester City!"

Fahim was already about to give up and was about to stand up and leave.

As a result, he heard the following words from Guardiola, which almost made him spit out a mouthful of old blood:
If you don't talk a lot, you'll die if you don't catch your breath!

However, Guardiola's words still surprised him:

"Great, Mr. Guardiola, I have brought you the contract offered by the club, do you want to take a look?"

Guardiola waved his hand, indicating that this matter is not in a hurry:
"You know that I still have a contract with Bayern, right?"

The contract period between Guardiola and Bayern is 3 years, and the liquidated damages are 1000 million euros.

If Manchester City invites him to coach in the past, the contract break fee cannot be paid by himself.

"Of course, if you want to terminate the contract, we will compensate you for the losses caused by your breach!"

Fahim thought to himself that the 1000 million euros was a fart. For the rich and powerful Manchester City, these were not a problem at all.

The important thing is that they abducted the most talented and prestigious coach in football.

For Manchester City, this is definitely a rare good thing. It is of great significance, probably second only to the fact that they signed Lin Quan from the transfer market!

After Fahim promised to help him solve the contract problems, Guardiola immediately looked at the contract brought by the other party.

To be honest, even though Guardiola was prepared in his heart, he was still taken aback after reading the conditions offered by the other party.

Manchester City is really too arrogant!
The contract they offered was for a period of four years, with an annual salary of up to 1800 million euros.

There is no doubt that this is the highest annual salary in the entire coaching industry, bar none!

Compared with his annual salary at Bayern, the annual salary offered by Manchester City is fully doubled!
If he signs this contract, then he will become the head coach with the highest annual salary, just like Lin Quan is the player with the highest annual salary in the entire football world.

It is said that the local tyrants in the Middle East are rich and powerful, spending money lavishly, and today I have finally seen it.

Guardiola is very satisfied with the annual salary, but in addition to the annual salary, he pays more attention to his authority in the club.

There are two types of Premier League coaches, one is the head coach that is more common in football, and the other is the head coach who also serves as the club manager.

The latter could be called Football Manager!
This kind of authority was more common in the Premier League in the early years, but with the continuous advancement of professionalization and commercialization, there are fewer and fewer head coaches with this kind of authority.

After Ferguson retired, probably only Wenger could be called a football manager.

Guardiola's ambition is not that big, he is not very keen to intervene in the management of the club.

But he needs to have the highest transfer authority, so that he can control the resources in his hands and buy the players he likes.

It's not that the club buys and buys in the transfer market and buys a large number of excellent players, but they do not meet his employment standards.

Buying such players back may not help the team, but will drag the team down.

As for the club's operational authority, Guardiola does not need too much, but he needs a certain decision-making power to decide whether to accept commercial games.

If the team is allowed to play commercial games all over the world just to make money, which affects his preparations for the team, then he will lose everything.

Guardiola's mind is very simple, he just wants to study the most reasonable and best tactics, and transform the team into the best look in his mind.

And led the team to win one honor after another, breaking one record after another.

What he values ​​is the experience in the process and the joy of gaining honor.

Other than that, he has no interest in the struggle for power and intrigue within the club.

"Sorry, I don't have the authority to do this. I need to report this to the big boss after I go back and ask him to make a decision."

After listening to Guardiola's request, Fahim apologized to the other party and truthfully told the other party the truth.

Guardiola nodded, expressing his understanding.

Although Fahim is the chairman, this team is not his own private property, so the decision-making power for major matters must be in the hands of the big boss Mansour.

This kind of request made by Guardiola may be unacceptable to many giants.

But at Bayern, after being teased repeatedly about player transfers, Guardiola was very firm about claiming that power.

He doesn't want to see the players he likes being sold by short-sighted clubs for money, and he doesn't want to see the players he doesn't want being forcibly bought back by the club and stuffed into him, making his locker room full of contradictions.

Fahim understands the opponent's thinking, but from the perspective of the club, if the head coach has too much authority, it is obviously not conducive to the club chairman and owner to control the overall situation.

Fahim did not return to the UK, but flew directly to Abu Dhabi to meet the big boss of Manchester City.

When Mansour learned that Guardiola intends to accept Manchester City's invitation to coach in Manchester, he immediately felt relieved.

"Just give it to him. As long as he is willing to work in Manchester City, why not let him be the manager of Manchester City?"

Mansour is very optimistic about Guardiola's coaching prospects in Manchester City, so he is very tolerant of Guardiola's requirements.

His vision is very broad, and he seems to have seen Guardiola come to Manchester City and work together with Lin Quan and his son to help Manchester City lay a bright future for such a large country.

Wait until Manchester City's influence and commercial value surpass the Red Devils Manchester United, and even Real Madrid.

Then the price he paid was totally worth it!
After receiving the authorization from Mansour, Fahim quickly sent someone to contact Guardiola, and officially began to deal with the contract between Guardiola and Bayern.

……

The chairman of Manchester City has often flown around the world by plane recently, which makes the outside world have to wonder whether Manchester City is looking for famous coaches all over the world and wants to bring them to the Etihad Stadium?
For a while, reports in this area filled the headlines of the major media.

According to the current situation, the major media have listed a large number of candidate lists for famous coaches:
What Lippi, Hiddink, Scolari, Klinsmann, etc., have boarded Manchester City's scandal list.

These famous coaches have a good record in the past, and their fame and strength can match Manchester City's requirements.

And they are not coaching in the giants now, so they are most likely to accept Manchester City's invitation and return to the five major leagues.

"Blue Moon coaching change, who will be in charge of Manchester City? "

"The World Cup champion coach and Manchester City have a scandal, or will return to the five major leagues! "

While these media reporters were making news, some coaches also came to catch the heat.

They suggested to reporters that Manchester City had had contact with them in private to raise their value.

However, when a reporter released a photo of Fahim meeting privately with Bayern coach Guardiola in Munich, the entire football world was shocked! !
