It's not the first time Barnes has come to Rigburton, but the entire base has changed a lot since the last time he came.

bigger!more beautiful!more modern!

Half of Randall's office has a transparent design. As long as he is happy, he can have a panoramic view of the entire first-team training ground at any time, and he can also see the beautiful scenery of Rigburton.

But obviously Randall didn't intend to let them enjoy the view here. When he pressed the button, all the French windows were covered with shutters, which also made the whole room look more like a normal office.

Franck Ribery is no stranger to this place. He looked at Randall who had just sat them down with a pleasant face, and silently glanced at his agent.

His cooperation with Barnes also started last year, and he still doesn't have enough confidence in his ability. To be precise, he is worried about Randall.

He hadn't joined the team in the winter window when Randall vigorously cleaned more than 10 players, but this did not prevent him from knowing Randall's wrist and his strength.

Yes, Franck Ribery knew it all, but even knowing he was determined, he wanted to transfer.Of course, he also found that the timing of his proposal was not very appropriate.

There are Duke and Alan Shearer in Randall's office. Duke saw that Randall opened the baffle and didn't intend to communicate with Ribery, so he looked at Barnes and said, "We're sorry for you. It's not a pleasure to have it out in the media directly, especially at this time, at this time."

"It was my mistake, it was my fault." Barnes admitted his mistake sincerely without looking for any more reasons.

This also made the atmosphere between each other a little more relaxed. Randall glanced at Ribery and continued to remain silent.

"Our intention is actually to tell the club that Frank wants to leave in the summer. Of course we chose the wrong time. We should communicate with the club after the end of the season. This is indeed my mistake." Barnes once again very sincerely Acknowledge your mistake.

Ribery has five years left on his contract, which is a very long contract and the club has the full initiative.But he would do such a stupid thing, in fact, because Ribery wanted to leave, because the entire British media boasted about Irving and Messi, which made Ribery feel that he was not that important——

Although he just won a top league championship with the team.

He has no sense of achievement, nor is he the most shining player in this team, nor is he the most popular player among fans. He does not even occupy an absolute main position in this team, although Messi basically Also sit on the bench.

But Franck Ribery was just unhappy and just wanted to leave. He was born a prodigal son, accustomed to wandering, had better choices, and never missed them.

Or it can be said that Newcastle did not make him nostalgic.

Duke has already discussed with Barnes. This fat man who started as a small assistant of Shepard and was established by Randall as Newcastle's sports director has a very smooth personality. The somewhat awkward atmosphere in the locker room was swept away.

Hiller glanced at Randall and found that he seemed to be looking at Ribery and Barnes as usual, but he was actually a little absent-minded. He has evidence!He is playing with the string of black beads in his hand!

Hiller is a little bit about the new jewelry on Randall's hand... If he hadn't heard that it was not a prayer bead, he would have thought Randall had converted to Buddhism.

Even though Barnes and Duke were both good at talking, after a few minutes of talking, Duke's eyes fell on Randall, Boss, should you say something?

Randall looked at Ribery after receiving Duke's gaze.

In this situation, he did not try to keep Ribery, and said very simply: "You can submit a transfer application after the end of the season, but as a punishment for shaking the morale of the army before the end of the season, before the end of the season, you will be punished. Delegated to the reserve team."

Almost no one expected that he would send Ribery directly to the reserve team so simply...

In fact, this is indeed a very serious punishment!

Franck Ribery clenched his palms lightly, he was a little angry, but let's think about what Barnes and his wife told him before, he didn't speak.

"If a team offers a 'reasonable' price in the summer, I will agree to the offer. If the price does not meet our expectations, the club will not choose to release the person." Randall continued, his tone did not blame, but also There is no warmth.

His psychological price for selling Ribery is no less than 3000 million pounds, which is of course the reserve price.

In fact, Landauer is quite curious about whether Bayern will offer this price. After all, there is only 40m on the famous emoticon package "Sound of Bayern".

Barnes rolled his eyes, glanced at Ribery who was expressionless, and asked, "2500 million pounds?"

Randall raised his eyebrows, and Duke laughed, "2500 million pounds? How is it possible? Is Frank only worth so much? Is he not as good as Robben? At least 4000 million pounds."

Barnes's expression was a bit grim, but he admitted that what Duke said was not unreasonable, Robben and Mourinho had completely fallen out, he was also seeking to leave Stamford Bridge, and Chelsea had already released the word, less than 4000 Wan is impossible!

Isn't Ribéry the best comparison to Robben's famous glass man?

Barnes laughed immediately: "Of course Frank is better than Robben, although they are not the same type of players."

When Barnes and Ribery left, only Randall, Duke, and Shearer were left in the room.

Duke and Hiller looked at each other before asking Randall, "Why did you suddenly change your mind? Didn't you say..."

"He wants to leave, and it's meaningless to stay. It's not good for us to force him to stay, but he also has to pay the price and be punished. What Richard said just now is right, and then we will negotiate with Bayern like this."

Such a turmoil has not yet subsided. Also in the Rigburton training base, the three future stars who have jumped to the U18 have finished today's training and are training in the gym.

They seem to be the only idiots in the gym who volunteer to train. They were still talking about Ribéry, but it's frustrating to think that they will be promoted to the first team next season or the next season.

When Hazard paused to rest, Griezmann also took the towel he handed over to wipe off his sweat, and muttered, "Why did Frank leave?"

They are eager to grow up so hard, but they still can't catch up with Messi's footsteps.

Hazard said softly: "Everyone's choice is different, he may want to be the best."

"Is it impossible to become the best if you stay?" Griezmann asked.

"Because in the head's mind, he's not the best," Victor said.

Griezmann immediately asked: "Who is the best one in the boss's heart?"

It silenced them, Messi's name came to each of them, it must be Argentine.

Leo Messi.

A man who gets along with them day and night, goes in and out with them, and they have a harmonious and deep relationship with each other.It is precisely because of this that they know better than outsiders how difficult it is to defeat Messi. Messi at home can release his talent in football more freely. He will also challenge many freestyle football moves and will never tire of it. Try to get rid of Randall.

Sometimes he will fail, sometimes he will succeed, and when he succeeds, everyone will applaud him, envy him at that moment, and look forward to being the one who can get past Randall. people.

Every child is thinking about their own future. Will they be able to fight Leo in the future and become the treasure in the heart of the boss?

After a while, Victor's cell phone rang, and it was Randall who texted him asking if the three of them had finished training.

The three children immediately ran to the locker room to take a simple shower like fools, and when they ran out of the bathroom, they saw Randall holding a book and sitting in the corner waiting for them.

"What were you doing?" Randall asked.

"We went to the gym." Hazard said, he saves a lot of trouble than the other two, because he is a board inch (_).

Randall quickly praised them. It is of course a good thing to be able to go to the gym. He said generously: "You have a game tomorrow? I can watch it. What are you going to do for the half day after the end?"

The coolest of the three teenagers couldn't hide the surprise on his face, and they immediately quarreled.

"Don't go to the bookstore! It's boring!"

"It's not fun to go shopping."

"...why can't we play games at home?"

Randall put the book in the bag he brought with him, and helped Azar tidy up his changed clothes. Before the two who were particularly noisy could compete, he was not in a hurry, and took the little The dirty clothes in the grid are also folded, and there will be an equipment manager to clean them up, wash them together, and fold them neatly before giving them to the young players.

After they rode their bicycles to the parking lot, Xiaoge asked him in a low voice: "Will we be in trouble next season?"

Randall knew what he was referring to, he shook his head slightly, "No, but the next game may be a little troublesome."

"what?"

"Hurry up and get in the car!" Randall pushed his shoulder, "We still have to go home for dinner, what do you want to eat?"

The next moment his mind was filled with the quarrels of several boys.

He misses Tony a little bit, Randall thought, and I miss Leo, Luca, and Mesut, who are a lot quieter than these three boys.

Of course, he also admitted that the only noisy one among the three teenagers is Griezmann_(:」)_.

what else can we do?

He loves him even if he is a little noisy.

The trouble Randall said of course was after the team was suspended and Ribery was directly delegated.

Their recent schedule has been loose and then tight, and they will play against Manchester United three days later against Chelsea in the next round.On one side is the unbeaten record of the league, and on the other side is the Champions League semi-finals first away and then home. Randall wants to win these two games. After the absence of Ribery, he has to make other choices.

What he was worried about was the tactics of the next game. After the media learned that Ribery was banned from the team and was directly transferred to the reserve team, there was a wave of crazy discussions.

The media also imagined how Landauer would react, but they didn't expect to send people down so directly!They tried to interview Ribery, the famous bad boy, but Ribery did not accept any interviews, and went directly to the reserve team to report and train alone.

The Magpies players who have not finished their short vacation also admire Ribery as a man after seeing the overwhelming reports in Wales.

You just have to bear with it, what will happen if you wait a little longer, and you end up going directly to the reserve team, right?It’s true that Randall usually looks easy to get along with, but this guy is the chairman of a club after all, not just our coach.

But this also made Bell jump up in his heart, it's me, right?There must be a chance for me, right?Next is the Champions League semi-finals, just thinking about it makes people excited ()/!

His joy is almost undisguised, but other players can also understand, who has never been young?Who didn't expect it?

Everyone thought in their hearts that this kid was lucky.

Different from the calmness of the players, the Magpies fans who were immersed in the carnival the day before had forgotten the happiness of the league trophy. They were worried, how will they play the next game?Three midfielders?Double striker?

They played like this last season, so it shouldn't be a problem, right?

However, there are also some external comments that Randall's move is too cold, because Ribéry just wants to submit a transfer application, and does not have any PY transactions with other clubs in private. Decentralization is a bit too much, isn't it?

However, a large number of fans of Magpie and Randall began to support it. Counting the past of the good boy, Ribery has a lot of criminal records in terms of transfers, okay?Not just once, but even if you have to submit an application, why not wait until the end of the season?

The debate was huge, and it also gave the media an excuse to ask other coaches for their views.

Ferguson was the first to be interviewed at this time.

Surprisingly, Sir Alex Ferguson actually sided with Randall at this time. "I have seen the reports and heard what happened. I think it is a natural choice for Randall to send Ribery down. Ribery should be punished."

Sir Alex Ferguson said it well, the reporters onlookers only applauded, but what do you think of the upcoming game?

"Manchester United will advance, there is no doubt. There is only one team that can get tickets to Athens, and it will only be us." Ferguson put down his rhetoric.

So straightforward, the reporters went back to write a special book.

Ferguson was not the only coach interviewed by reporters, Mourinho was also interviewed.

However, the contradiction between him and Robben is well known, but the Dutchman's season has ended early, Mourinho did not mean to make use of it, and only commented on Ribery, "He wants to submit a transfer application. Nothing, but he chose an inappropriate time, it hurt the feelings of the fans and the locker room, and he deserved to be punished."

Wenger also stood on Randall's side, commenting on his French fellow, saying: "Ribery is a good player, he is also full of personality, but it is nothing to save these for the summer, he has the freedom to submit a transfer application, but The timing is inappropriate."

A reporter was particularly interesting and asked Wenger: "Arsena, it is said that Newcastle will let Ribery go at a price of 4000 million pounds. What do you think about this?"

Wenger's expression changed instantly, "The price is a bit outrageous. I'm not saying he's not good enough, but that there's something wrong with the market as a whole, which puts us under pressure..."

Bitter or not, look at the Red Army... no, look at the Gunners Arsenal!

Wenger's life is hard, the Emirates Stadium has just moved in, and there have been a lot of troubles, and finally started to win here, the players have paid a premium, and the club's economic pressure is even greater!

He had to save and save, and he was sick of Chelsea and Newcastle.

Arsenal's plight has also attracted a lot of attention. Everyone wants to know whether Wenger can hold on, and whether he can win the top four this season.

On April 4, the Magpies players came to Rigburton early to prepare for training.

On this day, there were a large number of reporters squatting outside the base, but the security personnel at the base ensured that they could drive their cars to the parking lot without being harassed by reporters, which would affect the day's training.

When they changed their clothes and walked to the training ground, they saw Randall practicing long-distance passes with Messi.

Because it was a long-distance pass between each other, Messi made a lot of mistakes, but someone was already looking at Messi thoughtfully.

There is always a reason to let him practice long passes, so what is the boss thinking?

Randall didn't think about anything, he just wanted to add a few long-range monsters and long-range monsters to the team.

Seeing that the players were almost all here, he whistled and led them to warm-up in person. After the warm-up was over and before they were divided into groups, he said to everyone: "Maybe everyone knows that Frank has gone to the reserve team. I have already talked with Frank After communicating and agreeing in principle that there is a suitable offer, he can leave the team in the summer. He will not participate in our training for the rest of the season, nor will he participate in games. But I don't want this to affect us, because We’re a team, we’ve got 23 players, we’ve got the same goal—”

Randall took a deep breath, clenched his hands into fists and waved vigorously, "The Champions League trophy!"

"This should be our next goal and our pursuit!"

Randall looked at the expressions of each player, and he could feel everyone's desire for the Champions League.

Does anyone in their team besides Nesta have a Champions League trophy?No!They all crave it!

In the whole of Europe, perhaps only one or two out of a hundred players can make it to the Champions League, even fewer can make it to the knockout stage, and how many can stand on the final stage and be a stable champion?

How many players have never lifted this trophy in their entire lives!

They are still one step away. Only one step away, they will be able to enter Athens and stand on the stage of the Champions League final. For the players, it will be one of the most important moments in their careers!

This is not the World Cup, not the European Cup, America's Cup, African Cup or Asian Cup. Maybe winning it will not bring anything to your motherland, but this is a moment of honor for the players themselves!They are not fighting for the club, let alone for the country, they will fight for themselves!

Randall didn't say any more, those words should stay in Athens!

After finishing the lap grabbing, he started to divide into groups, and then started today's two training sessions.

After grouping, everyone glanced at each other and found that Modric, Ballack and Parker were standing in a row on the opposite side, Ozil was in front, but the forwards were Lewandowski and Alan Smith.

Alan Smith?

They took another look at the trident of the "replacement team" on the opposite side, Owen, Luca Toni and Messi, how to play this?

But the match was only half an hour, so everyone played as usual.

When the time came in the afternoon, they realized that there had been a change. Kroos was on the side of the main team, and Bell was also lucky.

On the second day, Randall made a little adjustment and it was fixed.

The time came to April 4, the day before the game against Chelsea, and Randall held a pre-match conference at the Rigburton training base.Because it is his home court, and the undefeated record is ahead, Randall still hopes to win this game after making a choice, because Chelsea is already the last stumbling block to their undefeated record.

"Randall, has Ribery finished the season early? If the next game doesn't go well, will you bring him back from the reserve team?"

Randall glanced at the reporter. He knew him, and he was a reporter from the French "L'Equipe".

It can be regarded as Ribery's natal family, he understands.

"I just want to discuss tomorrow's game. What I can answer is that Ribery will not appear in tomorrow's starting squad."

The reporter of "Team Daily" did not expect that he would answer frankly, and even acquiesced that Ribery would not play in the next game and could only sit down.

The press officer pointed to the next reporter, a reporter from the British "442" magazine, "Randall, what do you think of the rumors of Mourinho's dismissal?"

There have been a lot of rumors about Mourinho recently, mainly because the outside world believes that Mourinho may dismiss get out of class after the end of the season, which makes Randall feel a little sorry.

But he is not worried about Mourinho, because it will be a matter of time before the Portuguese re-leads his team to appear in front of him.

"Jose is a very good manager and he has a reputation for what he has done with Chelsea. They have had a lot of difficulties this season, the series of injuries has reflected in their record. Think about how they conceded 15 goals before. Ball, amazing, isn't it?"

Randall said two more fair words for Mourinho, "Arsenal can only play in the UEFA Cup this season. Of course, their game in the UEFA Cup is very smooth. I think they will beat Sevilla and take the league back. Cup. At present Chelsea should be able to keep the top four, this is not a bad record, I think Abramovich should give him more chances, lost Mourinho, this is Chelsea's loss, but also the whole Premier League loss."

This is not the first time Randall has "stand up" for Mourinho, but this time it still gave reporters a deeper understanding of the friendship between the two.

"Mourinho said he wanted to end your unbeaten run before the end of the season, what do you think?"

"He may be able to, but we also have a greater chance of defeating him, and—" Randall winked at the reporters, jokingly said: "He said that before, didn't he? The result?"

The reporters laughed unceremoniously. Yes, Mourinho said this more than once, and he was slapped in the face by Randall every time.

Not long after the pre-match press conference, Randall received a call from Mourinho.

"'Losing Mourinho, this is Chelsea's loss, but also the entire Premier League'? Randall, I can understand that you don't want to lose me as an opponent?" Mourinho's laughter came through the receiver It sounded like he was in a good mood.

Randall said deliberately: "Well, I really don't want to lose your opponent, but it seems that you have been giving me points, Jose."

"...don't try to provoke me."

"Then do you want me to say something nice? For example, it's not bad to praise you for keeping your current ranking in this turbulent season? I don't think you need it."

Randall said.

"Of course!" Mourinho said proudly, "Of course I'm not proud of it, but I may leave the Premier League after this season."

"Where are you going?" Randall asked quietly.

"Not going anywhere, with my wife and my children." Mourinho's smile continued, and he was more free and easy in the microphone than ever, and he was more casual, "But you don't have to worry, Randall , we will fight again after this game, maybe it will only be in the Champions League. But instead of hoping to beat you in the Champions League, I prefer tomorrow, just wait!"

Someone once called Mourinho a migratory bird. He will leave, wander, and frustrated, but he will also recover and appear in front of the world.

Every coach who can cross the five major leagues must accept a fact——

They will fail, they will be frustrated.

Even Busby, Ferguson and Wenger were no exception.

The Spanish dynasty will collapse, and Italy will one day rise again, this is inevitable.

What they have to do is to enrich themselves when they are frustrated, maintain self-confidence, learn lessons, and come back.

There was a smile on the corner of Randall's lips. There were blessings, arrogance, and ridicule among friends, "Oh, so tomorrow I will bring an extra handkerchief to comfort you."

Randall regretted it.

He shouldn't have had one more, really, he should have had more!

Because on April 4, there was another light rain in the sky, and this was another tough rain battle!

Messi scratched his hair in trouble after leading the little caddy into the arena. He felt that the wet hair would affect his vision, but he forgot to prepare the hair rope.

Ozil took a look at him and immediately tore off his headband from his head and handed it to him. Messi immediately smiled at him and started to grab his long wet hair and tie it into a ponytail.

Hateful!He hates the British weather!

Ozil's hair is much shorter than his. Without the interference of the headband, he just combed his hair back with his fingers. It doesn't affect his playing football, but it affects his mood!

Parker accidentally strained in training two days ago and missed this game, which also means that Parker will miss the next first leg of the Champions League semi-finals, and also let Kroos, who is only 18 years old, appear in this game middle.

This is Kroos' second start in the league, but the fans know Kroos has a big heart and they are proud of him!

Today's rain is neither heavy nor light, neither will it make the players feel that they can't keep their eyes open, and it will also cause some troubles for the smooth progress of the game.

Shearer was invited by the BBC today to come to the live broadcast room as a guest to comment on the game.

At this moment, the legendary BBC commentator John Mortensen asked Shearer with a smile, "We just talked about Kroos's starting lineup and Irving sitting on the bench. Alan, do you think Irving will be unhappy about this? He is in the top scorer list. It's almost overtaken by Messi."

Shearer immediately laughed and said: "No, not at all, believe me, if the next game is missing, Michael will go to Randall's office and talk to him for half an hour. But it won't be this As far as I know, yesterday he set up a bet in the locker room on whether Leo will surpass me in the scorer list. I originally wanted to vote for Leo, but he thought that I am not a player but the management , rejected my bet."

John Mortensen and his partner Guy Mowbray immediately burst out laughing. At this moment, the camera showed Randall, and Guy Mowbray immediately asked: "Does Randall know? Did he confiscate everyone's betting money this time?" ?”

"Randall was there at the time. He just bet 2000 pounds that Messi would score 2 goals today. I think this makes Michael more unhappy than confiscating the betting money." Shearer laughed.

This made the live broadcast room full of laughter again, but Landauer in the camera has embraced the belated Mourinho, and he also said something in Mourinho's ear, which made the madman Immediately pushed him away, covered his mouth and said something.

"Hahahaha I saw the mouth shape at the beginning. I think what Randall just said must be very explosive, so that the madman just said the word beginning with F."

"We just saw the interaction between Ozil and Messi, and we can see that their relationship is still very good, so I don't think Newcastle's dressing room has been affected?" John Mortensen asked.

Of course Shearer knew what he was referring to. He just smiled heartily and said: "They are all good players, and they are all professional players. They all know what to do when. Any player is eager to achieve that team. Arsenal's record, think about it, what kind of honor is it to be part of an undefeated championship team? That is more valuable than a league title. Being able to win [-]% of the championship is also making history. Not to mention they still have the Champions League, Any team that reaches the semi-finals has already begun to fantasize about winning the trophy with big ears."

Shearer's words also made the hearts of countless Magpie fans settle down.

What they are most worried about is the impact of Ribery's incident on the locker room. Although they think the possibility is not high, what if it is affected?

At this point the game has started, Newcastle kick-off first.

Mourinho's eyes were on Kroos's inspection. This 18-year-old boy reminded him of Ozil last year. In fact, Kroos did better than Ozil at that time because he was stable and not Play at a high level like Ozil's repeatedly, and the next game may be mediocre.

His physical fitness is also better than Ozil, but today's position...

Mourinho frowned slightly, turned around and asked his assistant coach, "Has he tried this position before?"

"No, he mentioned the central midfielder before, but this time it's the left..."

Mourinho glanced at Randall and saw that the guy was standing in the rain with a transparent umbrella, watching the pitch intently.

Manchester United, which kicked off at the same time, was also fighting in the rain, but Ferguson's assistant coach Michael Perrin was listening to the game between Newcastle and Chelsea on the radio, and then searched the starting lineup on his mobile phone. After confirming it, he said to Ferguson: "Parker is indeed injured. Now, it's Kroos in his place."

"Cross? Toni Cross?"

"Correct."

Ferguson took over the starting roster, read it carefully, and cursed in a low voice. Rooney next to him took a peek at him immediately. Ferguson slapped his head and signaled him with his eyes, "You watch the game seriously."

Kroos instead of Parker?Is this going to make this German teenager a panacea?

Ferguson is no stranger to Kroos, because his favorite player Scholes recommended this player to him half a season ago, saying that he was very inspired when watching him play.

This is a very high evaluation. Ferguson agreed with Scholes after watching his game. This is a very good kid, but he is not suitable for the current Manchester United.

Because what he wants more now are finished players, players who can be recruited, and can be used as they are plugged in. There is no need to worry about integration problems, and players who can instantly solve Manchester United's current midfield problems.

If he was a few years younger...

If it weren't for their four consecutive seasons of failing to win the league title...

Ferguson chewed his gum and began to focus on their game.

The rain dripped onto the ground along the ceiling of the coach bench, like a rain curtain. Ferguson looked at Scholes who had just been knocked down on the pitch, immediately occupied it, and then rushed out!

Rooney quickly opened the umbrella for the old man, and Ferguson shouted in the rain: "Paul! Paul! Calm down! You fucking calm down!"

Paul Scholes, a big man who has won [-] or [-] topaz cards in his career, every time he gets a card is due to retaliation after being fouled first by the opponent.

Scholes was held down by Giggs, brother, calm down, calm down!

Although the championship is gone, it is good to win this game and watch Chelsea, Liverpool and Arsenal continue to compete for the fourth.

It is best to miss the Champions League this time is Liverpool!

Scholes just calmed down here, and Messi successfully made a point in the penalty area in the 6th minute at St. James' Park!

In the absence of Owen, Messi is the first penalty shooter. Standing in front of twelve yards, Messi, who has not been affected by any shadows, made it overnight and brought the Magpies a fantastic start!

It was Messi who scored the goal, but Ozil was praised for his coquettish throughness. This former Chelsea killer once again showed unparalleled brilliance against Chelsea!

Messi ran towards Ozil immediately after celebrating the goal. The pony tail flicked in the rain, and just jumped on Ozil, when Ballack stretched out the devil's hand and grabbed it.

Messi: ...

How can you catch someone's hair! ! !

Of course Ballack saw Messi's accusing eyes, he shrugged and walked away as if nothing had happened.

Ozil kiss now

The author has something to say: Kiss Messi, "Okay, okay, Leo, let's discuss the celebration of the next goal..."

Lampard standing three meters away from them: →_→

You kid, do you want to go to heaven?
