atypical star

"It has to be said," said Mourinho, sitting in front of a whiteboard in the tactical discussion room, "that we have had a not-so-ideal start to the season, and we are up against Liverpool, who will be the Premier League champions this season."

"I'm not going to say that everyone should have the confidence to win. For us next season, yes, this season..." He waved his index finger mischievously.

No one in the room dared to let out any laughter, everyone was watching the Tottenham manager seriously, concerned about what he had to say, should they give up this game?

"But we have to let the fans and opponents see our strength and tell them that even the current Tottenham are not a team that can be underestimated."

Contrary to everyone's expectations, not only Apollon, who reversed the score after coming off the bench, but also Tanganga, a young player promoted by the youth training team, started the game.

Is Tottenham no one available to this point?

Klopp will not believe it all. Mourinho is a very difficult opponent in his eyes, even if he has sufficient trust in the Red Army under his command.

Liverpool's offensive was quite ferocious, and even the defense was quite forward. When the Tottenham players crossed the center circle, they came up to press, and even gave defender Gomez a yellow card in the 23rd minute.

Of course, this yellow card is not what Klopp expected, but if he can take the opportunity to suppress Tottenham's offensive momentum, he accepts the price.

The strength of the Red Army this season is indeed outstanding. In the 37th minute, Salah attacked Firmino and scored the first goal.

But what surprised all the audience was that Tottenham did not become demoralized because of being scored a goal. Maybe it was the coach's encouragement on the sidelines, or maybe the players on the field cheered each other up with their eyes.

The Red Army's midfielder Oxlade-Chamberlain received another yellow card 2 minutes after the goal.

This is really an unnecessary yellow card. After all, this foul also provided Tottenham with a corner kick.

Fortunately, Tottenham's high center forward Kane was unable to play due to an injury rotation not long ago. Without Kane, Tottenham's header attack is bound to be much smaller.

However, at the moment when Ali sent a corner kick, Apollon rushed into the small penalty area, jumped high, and smashed the ball into the goal with a gesture of looking back at the moon.

Facing football that is so close at hand, the Red Army goalkeeper Alisson has no good way.

Apollon is actually not very tall, only about 184, but his jumping ability is amazing, and even if he collided with Liverpool defender Van Dijk in the air, he still stabilized the direction of the header.

This is Tottenham's home court, and the moment the goal was scored, the fans stood up and cheered.

In the second half, Klopp took the lead in replacing Chamberlain, who had a yellow card, with Lallana. Mourinho followed closely, replacing Danny Rose and Eric with Lamela and Lo Celso. Mori.

The latter two are the ones who are sure to leave during this winter window.

In this game, Apollon perfectly undertook the task of connecting the front and back courts. Lucas Jr. and Sun Xingmin did not need to rush back to the defense, and they kept patrolling the Red Army's backcourt, but Liverpool did not dare not share the responsibility of the defenders. two guys.

Because once there is free time, Apollon can quickly pass the ball long and fast, the pass is fast and stable, and even the lead can be easily calculated.

As for the offense, Klopp smiled wryly. Mourinho deserves to be the patriarch of anti-reverse tasks. Look at the defense like a wall.

In the end, they could only leave with one point unwillingly, and this was their second game of the season without a win.

The news that the Red Army stumbled once again blew up the whole of England, and the call to call Yapolun into the national team to participate in a friendly match to bind this future star became louder and louder.

In the next round of the game against Watford, it was still Apollon who assisted Lucas Jr. to win a three-pointer at the buzzer.

Now, no one doubted that he only had a highlight performance in one game, and they all hoped that he could save this luck of scoring and assisting until the European Cup in the summer.

The Three Meow Legion made a meow meow cry.

Under normal circumstances, after a game is over, Mourinho will take a day or two off to give the players a rest.

They happily got on the bus and left Watford's stadium, all talking about where they would go with their families for the next day's holiday.

Seeing Mourinho, who was sitting alone at the front, looking down at the profile of his notebook, Apollon scratched his face, then took out his mobile phone and quietly sent a message:

"Sir, can you wait for me after you get off the car later?"

Although Mourinho did not look back, he agreed to his request.

"What's wrong?" Mourinho, who stayed at the end, asked with concern, "Did you encounter any difficulties in life?"

Apollyon was a little shy and didn't dare to look at him: "It's nothing, I just feel a little..."

He hesitated to speak, and Mourinho asked: "Is it not suitable? Can't you get along with your teammates? Or is the living environment not good?"

"It's just... everyone seems to have someone to play with." Apollon considered for a long time but still couldn't find a suitable word to refer to. He looked down at Mourinho with aggrieved eyes, blinking his blue eyes.

The Portuguese was immediately attracted by those clear eyes. He smiled helplessly, and raised his hand to stroke the little golden retriever's hair: "What a kid."

Thinking about it, a well-behaved boy like Apollyon should have lived with his parents since he was a child. In fact, he has just passed the legal drinking age now.

In fact, I just want to make friends.

"How about I ask for you, is there anyone in the team who is willing to rent together?"

Apollun's heart froze, his face was calm, and he looked even more aggrieved: "Can I move back to the base?"

He clearly understands which angle he puts on and which expression looks more harmless: "Hasn't Mr. lived here all the time?"

Mourinho has nothing to do with Apollon looking at him with puppyeyes: "But I'm because staying in a hotel is not as convenient as staying at the base."

"Hey, why doesn't your husband live in a house in London?" Apollyon was a little annoyed after he finished speaking, he didn't want to cause disgust because he accidentally violated the other party's privacy.

"I left the house to Mata and her mother. She is planning to open a clothing store in London recently." Mourinho doesn't mind that this is not something that needs to be hidden.

"In this case," Apollun's eyes lit up, "how about sharing the apartment with me, sir?"

This kind of request can be said to be a bit abrupt, "How can the head coach and the players rent together." Mourinho refused with a bit of a smile.

For a moment, Apollon was as lost as a big golden retriever who didn't get the fleshy bones he deserved, his eyes were wet: "Is it really not possible?"

"Be nice."

In the end, Apollon couldn't remember what he said or how he got home.

Anyway, he was super unhappy, although he knew in his heart that he was too sudden, there was nothing wrong with Mourinho's refusal.

Originally, he had expected too much.

Really, my heart is higher than the sky.

He sneered at himself, criticizing his own stupidity mercilessly: he didn't even think about what other people would think after sharing the house, with so many neighbors and paparazzi around.

A dazed little idiot.

Compared to not being able to ask for it, it is the saddest thing to not even know how to ask for it.

However, this is not the most irritating thing. The most irritating thing is that it didn’t take long for Mourinho to call him into the office, tell him what to say with a smile, and help him find a midfielder on loan from Benfica in Portugal be roommates.

The two are about the same age, so maybe they can become good friends.

Apollon looked at Mourinho in disbelief, his inner emotions were overwhelming, and he agreed calmly on the surface.

Hi, so angry!

Seeing that the little golden retriever seemed to leave angrily, it was not as happy as he imagined, jumping over happily and poking his eyes, saying that the boss is the best.

Confused, Mourinho asked his friend and ex-wife Matilda, who is a doctor of psychology: "Why does he look unhappy?"

In a text message, he described in detail what happened.

Matilda flipped it over and over again with great interest, and then answered a question that was wrong: "Jose, why do you care so much about this new player?"

Mourinho was puzzled: "Haven't I always cared so much about my players?"

Of course not!You used to only care about the performance of the players on the court.

Matilda tapped on the phone screen, and replied with some deep meaning: "With these descriptions alone, I can't give you a completely definite answer."

"I think you can take the initiative to get to know the children, maybe you will be pleasantly surprised."

Perhaps, it will not be long before seeing this ex-husband, who has been devoting himself to football, to being attacked by children.
