The first tumor in football

Chapter 185 Angry Griezmann
As Song Wen finished speaking, a burst of noise rang out again in the interview room.

When the word "training" came out of Song Wen's mouth, everyone realized that perhaps compared with the competition between Atletico Madrid, Real Madrid and Barcelona, ​​the biggest competition now is probably within Atletico Madrid.

Griezmann.

This young French player is the star player of Atletico Madrid.

Last season, Griezmann made 36 appearances in La Liga, all as a starter, with a total playing time of 3067 minutes, scoring 16 goals and contributing 7 assists, with a goal efficiency of 0.44 goals per game, helping the team win many key games.

Griezmann is not only the offensive core of Atletico Madrid, but also the key man of the team.

His speed, technique and shooting ability make him an important option for Atletico in attack, and he can play a key role both in positional battles and counterattacks.

The most important thing is that before this, coach Simeone's tactical system also relied heavily on Griezmann's performance on the offensive end. He would formulate some offensive tactics around him, allowing him to have more ball possession and freedom in the offense.

So when Song Wen said this quite offensive remark, many reporters immediately turned their eyes to Simeone.

You know, Griezmann was Simeone's biological son before this.

Song Wen's high-profile remarks now obviously express that after he came to Atletico Madrid, Griezmann's status can only be lower than his.

However, facing the gazes of the reporters, Simeone seemed not to feel it and was in a state of emptiness.

It was as if everything happening at the moment had nothing to do with him.

In fact, from this press conference to now, Simeone has had little presence as the head coach.

Of course, this was intentional.

He knew that Song Wen would definitely say something shocking at the press conference.

In fact, Atletico Madrid's top management had already communicated with him about these remarks before.

With the joining of Song Wen, Atletico Madrid's ambition is undoubtedly no longer to be the perennial third in La Liga.

Having spent such a huge price to sign Song Wen, Atletico Madrid is bound to become the third top team in the Spanish La Liga!

If you want to become a top team, it is not enough to just have superstars joining. Whether it is Real Madrid or Barcelona, ​​including other top teams in the top five leagues, fame is a must to become a top team.

Song Wen's naturally controversial nature is enough to keep the eyes of the world's football community on Atletico Madrid, without even requiring Atletico Madrid to do too much marketing!
Song Wen's remarks quickly spread wildly in the media.

In the football forum, Atletico Madrid's die-hard fans are divided into two distinct factions: old-school fans dug out the highlights of Griezmann being the team's top scorer for three consecutive years, and denounced the new signing for being ignorant of his own limitations in the topic #Defend the Pearl of France#; young fans posted Song Wen's data for half a season in the Premier League, saying that Griezmann's data over the years was surpassed by Song Wen in just half a year in the Premier League, and even added a barrage of comments such as "Welcome to the new king's era".

What is even more intriguing is the silence of Atletico Madrid's former stars. Torres, who has always supported Griezmann, posted an emoji of the sun and the moon on Instagram, which was interpreted as "there can't be two tigers on the same mountain"; Gabi, who once fought side by side with Simeone, touched the famous scar on his chin during an interview and said: "When Diego Costa came, we changed three batches of punching bags in the locker room."

The bookmakers even adjusted the La Liga Golden Boot odds overnight. Since La Liga has already passed half of the season, Song Wen's odds of winning the Golden Boot are quite high. On the contrary, Griezmann's odds have strangely risen against the trend - the bookmakers obviously believe that the French striker will have more motivation to prove himself in the new season, of course, provided that he can get along harmoniously with Song Wen.

And when it comes to the Golden Boot, fans discovered something terrifying.

That is, although Song Wen has left the Premier League, his number of goals in the Premier League this season is likely to be surpassed by no one in the Premier League even until the end of this season.

If Song Wen can maintain his terrifying goal-scoring ability in La Liga as he did in the Premier League, then he is likely to become the first player in history to win two league Golden Boots in one season!

Of course, people are arguing more about Song Wen and Griezmann.

Although Song Wen's remarks were extremely arrogant, fans around the world did not have much resistance after half a season of Song Wen's coaching.

Because they know that although Griezmann is excellent, if it is Song Wen...

The French are clearly in danger!

Fans even joked: "Imagine that Griezmann just passed two people with ballet steps, and then turned around to see Song Wen driving a tractor brought from Ipswich and running through the same area. This is not a tactical conflict, this is a nuclear war of football aesthetics."

At this moment, all the fans began to observe a moment of silence for the French.

As for Griezmann.

This young French international naturally has great opinions about Song Wen's joining.

But all these contradictions had been resolved yesterday.
-
As soon as Atletico Madrid officially announced Song Wen's joining, Griezmann pushed open the door of Simeone's office with dissatisfaction.

"Hey! Why didn't I get any news before this!"

Griezmann's face turned red, obviously he was very stimulated.

But compared to anger, Griezmann felt more confused and helpless at this moment.

His strength at this moment is just his protective color.

Not to mention Griezmann, even Ronaldo felt like he was facing a formidable enemy when he learned that Song Wen might come to Real Madrid to become his teammate.

Griezmann naturally knows this terrifying man who is at the peak of his career in today's football world.

He single-handedly led a team that was at the bottom of the Championship last season, not only to the Premier League, but also swept the big six giants in the Premier League and topped the Premier League standings.

This is something that no player in history has ever been able to do.

Not to mention Griezmann.

Even before this, Griezmann admired Song Wen very much.

Because this man simply moved personal heroism directly from the movies to the real green football field.

But admiration aside, Griezmann could never accept having such a person as his teammate.

Because when such a hero arrives, everyone around him can only become supporting roles.

As the star player of Atletico Madrid, everything Griezmann has now, whether it is tactical position or salary, is likely to be taken away by Song Wen.

So Griezmann naturally had great objections to Song Wen's sudden joining.

Facing Griezmann's dissatisfaction, Simeone smiled and said:

"Don't be so excited. Song Wen's joining should be a good thing for you. You are teammates, not competitors. You are a striker and he is a midfielder. There is no conflict, right?"

Although Griezmann's attitude towards Simeone is very bad, Simeone knows that this is also human nature. And the relationship between the two has always been very good. You know, in the past few years, Griezmann has always been Simeone's favorite.

In this matter, if you really want to talk about it, it is Simeone who seems to be stabbing Griezmann in the back.

After hearing Simeone's explanation, Griezmann's anger did not subside at all.

"Do you think I don't know Song Wen? If you invited De Bruyne or Eriksen, I wouldn't have any complaints. Do you think Song Wen is the kind of midfielder who will pass the ball to me? He will just rush around and then rush into the opponent's goal with the ball!"

Faced with Simeone's "betrayal", Griezmann began to complain like a little girl, feeling aggrieved and angry.

"He needs the whole team to revolve around him! Can you tell me now that even if Song Wen comes to Atletico, I can still play like before? Can you convince him? And that damn unlimited firing right, defensive immunity, so in the future, I will have to play the role of a defender in Atletico Madrid, right?"

Seeing Griezmann getting more and more excited, Simeone spread his hands helplessly.

He decided to pass the blame to the higher-ups.

"You know Griezmann, you know how strong our relationship is. But this is the intention of the top management, what should I do? The money to buy Song Wen did not come out of my pocket. In fact, if possible, I will firmly choose you..."

As he spoke, he looked behind Griezmann, appearing a little depressed.

Griezmann was about to turn around when he heard a man's voice behind him.

"Hey Griezmann, what a coincidence."

Song Wen had pushed the door and walked in without anyone noticing.

Simeone stood up and his face was immediately filled with smiles, as if he had completely forgotten that he had just told Griezmann that he was his staunch ally and that he was helpless about Song Wen joining Atletico Madrid.

"Song Wen! Why are you here? Why didn't you tell me in advance? Hahaha, I'm so happy to see you so energetic."

Song Wen shrugged his shoulders and said:

"I wanted to come and see my future stadium. It was a spur of the moment decision."

In fact, Song Wen had already heard Griezmann's complaints about him at the door.

He looked at Griezmann.

At this moment, the French felt embarrassed as if they had been caught doing something bad.

However, Song Wen's strong dissatisfaction still made him stubbornly turn his head away slightly.

Seeing the French woman looking like a wronged young wife, Song Wen went straight to the point and said:

"Brother, don't worry, after I come to Atletico Madrid, this team will only have one core."

"that's me."

When Song Wen finished speaking, Simone's office was so quiet that you could hear a pin drop.

Even Simeone looked at Song Wen in surprise. Although he knew that this kid was extremely arrogant, he obviously did not expect that the other party would be so aggressive right from the start.

He subconsciously wanted to step forward to stop Song Wen from speaking. After all, Atletico Madrid's locker room was still Griezmann's group.

If this really offends him, Song Wen will have a hard time in Atletico Madrid in the future.

"Hey Song, I think there might be some misunderstanding between you..."

"There is no misunderstanding," Song Wen interrupted Simeone directly.

He felt that some things were better resolved immediately, especially locker room conflicts like this one.

He doesn't have the time and energy to devote to this kind of infighting.

Simeone opened his mouth. This iron-blooded coach on the field was obviously not very good at handling such tricky situations.

"Griezmann, I know you don't welcome my joining, but the fact is that I am here now."

Although Song Wen still had a smile on his face, his words were not polite at all.

"I think you should understand the current situation. In fact, you only have two choices now."

"First, you can leave Atletico. Maybe you don't know yet, our club is facing a huge financial crisis, and I have a suggestion for them, which is to trade you to my old club Ipswich to pay off the debt, and I can also let my old teammate Grealish come here to fight alongside me."

Song Wen said this and looked at Simeone.

"But unfortunately, Coach Simeone rejected my idea. He told me that you are a very good player and you are his most proud disciple. You have worked together for many years and have a deep relationship, like brothers. He doesn't want you to leave Atletico Madrid no matter what."

Simone originally wanted to stop Song Wen, but the more he listened, the more he felt something was wrong, and his jaw dropped.

How come I have never heard of anything this kid said?
When he noticed Griezmann's suspicious look, the smart Simeone immediately restrained his puzzled and surprised expression and sighed.

Everything seemed to be predicted.

Song Wen rolled his eyes at Simone's poor performance, spread his hands and continued:
"Of course, if you think I have violated your interests for your own fame and fortune and really don't want to be my teammate, then I think Coach Simeone has no way to stop you. You can just make an exchange with Grealish and help me fulfill a wish at the same time. This is the best of both worlds."

When he heard Song Wen's words, veins on Greizmann's forehead throbbed.

The option proposed by Song Wen was a blatant insult to him.

Leave Atletico Madrid and join Ipswich, which is only at the level of the Championship?

Are you kidding me?
And it was in this exchange mode. In the eyes of the outside world, Griezmann was abandoned by Atletico Madrid, wasn't he? !
Seeing that the French were on the verge of exploding, Song Wen knew that the fire was almost boiling.

The most important skill in negotiation is to first propose a condition that the other party absolutely cannot accept.

In fact, what he just said was completely made up.

"The second option is that you and I will compete outside right now. You can choose any method, whether it is shooting, set pieces, speed, dribbling, etc. I accept all your challenges. If I lose to you, then from now on, the ball under my feet will only be passed to your feet!"
