Chapter 790: Digging the Foot of the Wall
For most Juventus, this is the first Champions League in their lives, and it may be the last, but it is already very lucky, and many more may not win it in their lifetime.
On the plane, Liu Hao's teammates still couldn't hide their excitement, taking turns to take photos with big-eared cups, and singing the song 'We are the champions' from time to time.
Only Liu Hao and Pirlo seemed much calmer, and the two of them sat together and chatted about common things.
This season is over, Juventus has had the most perfect season, life has come to a new fork in the road, a new beginning is coming.
Especially Liu Hao, he is determined to leave Juventus and return to Real Madrid.
Although he has only been at Juventus for a year, everything here will be worth his slow recollection, and his friendship with Pirlo cannot be weakened by leaving.
"I didn't expect to have a championship at the end of my career, haha, there's no better ending than winning the Champions League." Pirlo was deeply touched that he had gone to the major leagues or retired last year, and Liu Hao's arrival made him change his mind, and it turned out that his choice was correct, and he was able to follow Liu Hao's footsteps and win everything he dreamed of again.
Pirlo was lucky.
Of course, Andrea Pirlo also played a big part in the championship process, he was not just a passerby, he played a very important role in the quarter-final elimination of Chelsea, if he had not disobeyed Allegri's tactical instructions and secretly led his team-mates to play against Chelsea, it might not have been Juventus who won the title now.
While such behavior is undesirable, the results are good. It's also a favor for Allegri.
In the final, Pirlo made another impact at the last minute. He was by Allegri's side and helped the latter a lot.
When Allegri lost his soul, it was he who allowed Juventus to move forward in a difficult situation again.
"I can finally retire with peace of mind." Pirlo leaned comfortably back in his seat, his face full of relief and exhaustion, and his beard, which had not been shaved for several days, was crawling all over his face.
"You've really decided to retire." Hear Pirlo's words. Liu Hao was not surprised, because Pirlo had revealed it many times.
"I think you can play for a few more years, go to the Major League or the Chinese Super League, you can play a big role, are you willing to leave football? Especially in the Chinese Super League, we still need people like you to pass on football ideas and experience, and if you want, I can introduce a few clubs to you. ”
Liu Hao still tried to persuade Pirlo to go to the Chinese Super League and squeeze out his football warm-up......
"Haha. Liu, of course I can't do without football, but I can't really play anymore, I can't stand on the football field with everyone anymore, but I can watch everyone play off the field. Haven't I become an assistant coach for Juventus now? I think I'm going to stay in this role next season, or maybe I'm going to coach a second or third division team. I think it's time for a change in the way we work. ”
Pirlo rejected Liu Hao's kindness and decided to retire. Instead of being a football player, I chose to be a coach.
In fact, with his rare coaching talent in the Champions League, Andrea Pirlo should be able to do a good job in the coaching position, and his talent is here.
Seeing that Pirlo had made up his mind on the way to the future, Liu Hao looked back and forth, left and right, and then lowered his voice.
"Personally, I think. You can't stay in the position of assistant coach of Juventus......"
"You're always robbing him of credit, what do you make him think? Contradictions will definitely come out, I'm just going to talk about things. "He, of course, is referring to Allegri, and Pirlo's conducting talent is always above Allegri. Allegri, as the head coach, will definitely be unhappy, and the contradictions will naturally come out, Liu Hao's analysis is correct.
'It's better to be a manager and coach a team at a lower level, so you can gain experience and then you can get rid of other people's influences.
Pirlo nodded when he heard this, and seemed to agree with Liu Hao's opinion. Liu Hao means to let him be the head coach of a team alone?
However, Liu Hao's words are not over yet.
"It stands to reason that this is a good choice...... However, the risk is still too great, and if you fail to coach, won't it ruin your reputation for the rest of your life? Although the initial failure was a success, his mother ......" Liu Hao rolled his eyes, analyzing the pros and cons for Pirlo.
This doesn't work, that doesn't work, what the hell do you want me to do? Pirlo was a little dizzy, and he didn't know what Liu Hao was trying to express by saying so much in circles.
"Hehe, it's actually better to be an assistant coach."
Fack! Pirlo almost wanted to die, didn't you just say that you don't want to be an assistant coach and let me be the head coach, why do you say that assistant coaches are better now? That's too contradictory!
Liu Hao glanced at him, knowing what Pirlo was thinking, and then he approached Pirlo's ear and said, "Do you dare to be the assistant coach of the Chinese team?" ”
Belch!
Pirlo's expression was visibly stunned!
Assistant coach of the Chinese team?
He really didn't expect Liu Hao to throw out such a statement!
What does this mean?
It means being part of Mourinho's team! Jose Mourinho is the head coach of the Chinese national team, if you can work under Mourinho, become his assistant coach, learn from him, then this future is indeed very good!
Among today's managers, Jose Mourinho is already a top-notch presence, which is better than following any manager.
At the moment, Pirlo's face became a little flushed, apparently caused by inner excitement.
However, he couldn't believe it, so he asked:
"Are you sure?"
"Well, well, Mourinho is putting together his new coaching team, he wants to have an experienced veteran player as a support, but such a player is quite difficult to find, he hasn't found it yet, this player has to be able to help the team a lot, I think, if you can't do it, then no one else can!"
Liu Hao knew Mourinho's ideas when he was in Paris, Hao Haidong originally wanted to let the Chinese retired players assist Mourinho, but Mourinho denied his idea, what can the Chinese veteran players help him? It's a joke. It has to be a European level!
But how easy is it to find such a player?
Now Liu Hao has seized the opportunity of Pirlo's retirement and wants to pull Pirlo to the Chinese team.
With Andrea Pirlo's great personality and unrivalled technical experience, Mourinho will love it! Absolute!
"That'...... When? "Pirlo is even more excited, he can't wait to follow Mourinho, he has no chance to work with Mourinho in his playing career, there is always hope for his coaching career.
"The European Golden Globe Awards Gala. You go with me, and Mu Shuai will accompany me when the time comes. Liu Hao smiled weirdly, very satisfied that Pirlo agreed so quickly, so that he could tell Mourinho and see what Mourinho thought. He felt that Mourinho would never refuse this big pie that fell from the sky.
I wonder how Juventus FC and Allegri will react when they learn that Pirlo has been poached?
However, Pirlo's appointment as an assistant coach at Juventus this season is only temporary, and there is no basis for a contract, and it is not really a poaching......
The two of them talked about the future on the plane......
When the plane arrived in Turin, tens of thousands of Juventus fans met them at the airport. Meet the European champions.
It was almost a sleepless night......
In the joy, Liu Hao is also quietly saying goodbye to Juventus fans.
Although Liu Hao and his family like this classical and quiet city very much, it is indeed time for Liu Hao to leave, and there is not much time left for Liu Hao to say goodbye to the fans.
Liu Hao only spent two days in Turin City, and everything was taken care of, his family flew back to China first, while Liu Hao prepared to attend the European awards ceremony.
Parting is always sad, and Liu Hao doesn't want fans to know when he leaves. He left Torino City a day earlier than originally planned, when Juventus fans found out about his departure. It's too late.
He was accompanied by Pierrot, Nedved, Allegri and Pirlo.
In this European awards ceremony, Juventus will definitely be the biggest winner, Allegri will definitely be one of the favorites for the best coach in Europe, Liu Hao is also one of the favorites for the best player in Europe, and of course, the best team will definitely be Juventus. The honor of the Treble, no team can compete with them.
It's interesting to see that this year's top scorer in Europe is as the top scorer for Messi and Cristiano Ronaldo with 45 goals scored at the same time, and it looks like this pair will be like this for a lifetime, and next season even if they play for Manchester City at the same time, this competition may be indispensable.
At the awards ceremony. Pirlo successfully met Mourinho, and Mourinho hugged Pirlo very warmly, naturally very satisfied with Liu Hao's approach. The two sides hit it off, and Pirlo really became part of the coaching team.
And this matter has not been dissatisfied with by the Juventus club.
Allegri ended up being the best manager in Europe, and with the best manager in place, why care where Andrea Pirlo goes? At least on the surface, everyone is happy.
The next best team goes to Juventus.
Messi and Cristiano Ronaldo were also shortlisted for the best player award after sharing the top scorer, and of course, in addition to the two of them, there are also Muller and Neymar.
However, none of them were the final winners.
Liu Hao won this award for the third year in a row!
Three-time European Player of the Year!
In the past three years, Messi and Ronaldo have aged three years again!
How many three years can a footballer have......
If Liu Hao hadn't appeared, then this award should have been held by the two of them in turn, but now both of them have become supporting roles.
When Liu Hao stood on the podium to speak, Messi and Ronaldo sat next to each other, never so close, and the eyes of the two of them also exuded a scorching glow, full of strong fighting spirit.
That means obviously, next season, Liu Hao must not be allowed to continue to be on this stage! They don't believe that the two of them can't defeat Liu Hao when they join forces? That's impossible! And never let it happen!
As for the Neymar, Muller, etc., who want to seize power behind them, let's wait a few more years...... Although it will be old in a few more years, the truth is so cruel......
Messi and Ronaldo have brutally ruled football for so many years, and now they will be brutalized by Liu Hao for a few years, while others can only continue to be ruthlessly destroyed.
Fortunately, in addition to the best player, there is also a selection of the best team, and others can also get a lot of honor......
※※※※
After this night, the smoke of this season's European gunpowder has finally come to an end.
Mourinho, Pirlo and Liu Hao flew directly to Australia together and joined the Chinese team.
The Chinese team's first match in the top 10 against Australia, which was the most important game of the group.
Australia were runners-up in the 2015 Asian Cup, losing to China.
Although the Australians really want to avenge the revenge of the year, but looking at the strong lineup of the Chinese team, it seems that they are also powerless?
The Sydney Herald wrote an article saying: Mourinho is coming, Liu Hao is coming, can Australia stop it? With the addition of Pirlo, does the Chinese team really want to win the World Cup? Let's not be too ambitious, try to make fewer mistakes in the game, don't lose undeserved points when playing against other teams, and make sure we finish second in the group......
Few media outlets have been so low-key in their national team, and the Sydney Herald is the first of its kind.
Contrary to the Herald, the Chinese media like to brag, which is their consistent nature, and they almost blew the Chinese team to the sky, and some media even said that the Chinese team will not necessarily lose if it can compete with any strong team in the world now.
Is this really the case?
Jose Mourinho gave the answer in his first interview with the media.
Although Mourinho is meeting the Chinese team for the first time, his old team has already gone to China to work, has long been familiar with the national team players, and selected new national team members according to the report given by the team, fortunately, Liang Zhao, who plays in the Portuguese Super League, has finally returned to the national team or the national team after a long absence.
"In fact, the Chinese team really sucks!" Mourinho said amazingly, "It's not like the media said, I don't see what this Chinese team can do in the World Cup." Results are played, not blown out, and if we want to see results, it depends on whether we can show something in Australia. My current positioning of this Chinese team is that it is second-rate in Asia! ”
How can anyone belittle the team they coach like this! What's the difference between that and belittling yourself? Since you are second-rate in Asia, what are you doing coaching? Is this an excuse for yourself to leave class?
"Argentina has Messi, Argentina is not the World Cup champion, Portugal has Ronaldo, Portugal can only travel third in the group, the Chinese team has Liu Hao, why is it a strong team? The Chinese team has Mourinho, it will not be a strong team, we are just an ordinary Asian second-rate team, this is our current real positioning! (To be continued.) )
