Chapter 99: Sitting and Talking
In the sixteenth round of the league, Mallorca encountered Waterloo again. They suffered draws in two consecutive away games and were tied 1-1 by Real Oviedo. In this game, Ronaldinho, who started the game, performed generally and played seven games. He was replaced by Luque after more than ten minutes. After sixteen league rounds, Mallorca ranked tenth with 22 points with five wins, seven draws and four losses.
On the surface, Jose is quite satisfied with this result. After taking office, he has four wins and two draws in the six league games. This result is not bad by any means. The media's criticism of him is just because his results after taking office again are not as good as the previous one. It's just a good season - but after all, he was just putting out fires that season, and his task this season is much heavier.
If you want to change a team, you will definitely have to endure the pain of temporary poor results, not to mention that Mallorca's current results are not bad - it is just that winning is more difficult and depends more on luck. Whether it is luck or not, it can Winning is all about skill.
"This winter break, I let everyone go to Christmas." Jose said with a smile in the locker room after the game against Oviedo. Although it had just been a draw, he did not seem to be very angry.
But people who knew Jose well saw the anger in his eyes - Jose was obviously very dissatisfied with the draw.
"Today is the 21st. I will give you a week... On the 28th, we will gather at the training base to prepare for the game after the winter break. Do you have any opinions on this?"
The players began to shake their heads collectively. The old players from Mallorca basically live on the island of Mallorca, so it would be easy to go back for Christmas. Although some of the newly joined players are abroad, they have only joined not long ago. They were too embarrassed to say what they were going home for...
"Then let's disband on the spot, so as not to waste your time by going back to Mallorca... By the way, I wish you a Merry Christmas in advance... Have a good holiday... But the holidays are the holidays, don't let your body get too bad Decadent, after all, this is just the winter break."
These were the last words Jose said, and then he waved his hand, and Mallorca's players dispersed as if they had been granted amnesty - of course, most of them still had to go back with the club. Mallorca's…
Not many players left on the spot. Kaladze wanted to go back to China for Christmas. Eto'o and Capdevila's homes are in Madrid. As for other players, they basically followed the team back to Mallorca... …
What makes Jose a little strange is that Ronaldinho is also following the crowd back to Mallorca.
"I thought you were going back to Brazil for vacation." Jose took the initiative to say to Ronaldinho on the way back.
Ronaldinho shook his head: "No, now I need to adapt to La Liga faster...head, I didn't play well in today's game."
Jose laughed and patted Ronaldinho on the shoulder hard without saying anything.
After returning all the way to Mallorca, the team was officially disbanded. The players returned to their homes, but Jose couldn't be so relaxed. As a coach, he still has a lot to do...
The only thing that made him feel relaxed was that his father was in charge of running the club, so there was nothing to worry about. At least there was no need for Jose to worry about trivial matters and the running of the club. After Piri joined, Things like statistics and observing players' game status no longer need Jose to worry about.
Ronaldinho's previous performance surprised Jose - young players are young players, and at least Ronaldinho is not decadent at all now. At the same time, because he has not yet achieved any results, he will not be complacent. After all, compared with those top players, Ronaldinho is now just a pursuer rather than a overlooker.
"This guy looks a little confused now... and he's not discouraged yet. Maybe now is the time to talk to him... Should we go now or find a chance? Or talk to Pi first. Let's discuss it here, Pili has a good vision and may be able to provide me with other ideas." Jose sat in the office and thought silently.
"Jose? What do you want to see me for?"
When Jose pushed open the door to the technical director's office, Piri raised his head from his desk with some displeasure, as if he was dissatisfied that someone had disturbed him. However, when he saw that it was Jose, his expression changed. Then he relaxed.
"Didn't I bother you?" Jose asked with a smile.
"No." Pili shook his head: "Please sit down."
Jose pulled up a chair and sat down across from Piri - unlike his office, this desk originally had a computer, but Piri had the inherent stubbornness of old guys - he refused to use the computer for input Instead, I insisted on writing the information by hand, so the computer was moved.
Jose didn't say anything about this. Everyone has their own habits. Let Piri learn how to use the computer to input data again? It might be difficult. Since Pi Li is used to recording things in this way, let him go. As long as the paper is kept well, there will be no problem.
"I heard that you have to work late every day. It's better to take care of your health. Otherwise, if other people find out, they will say that I am so inconsiderate to my seniors for making you work so hard." Jose said with a smile. .
"Haha, no problem, I'm used to it." Pili laughed: "Besides, I'm here now, so naturally I want to get familiar with everything in Mallorca as soon as possible, so I'm so busy now, and I'll wait until I'm almost familiar with it. It will be a lot easier after that, you only have to watch the new players."
Jose nodded. Every time he trained, Piri watched the training from an unobtrusive place, and at the same time kept writing down something in a small notebook - and when Jose came in just now, he was reading the The things recorded in the small notebook have been rewritten, and it seems that some of the more messy observations have been recorded in detail and orderly.
"What do you want from me?"
As he asked, Piri got up and used a thermos bottle to make tea for himself, and then made a cup for Jose - since arriving in Mallorca, Piri started drinking tea instead of drinking on Jose's recommendation. Coffee - he thought it was nothing at first, but after a few times he fell in love with this drink with a strong oriental style - compared with coffee, tea is less irritating and has a longer aftertaste, although it is a It is a diuretic, but for older people, maintaining smooth excretion is also a good way to maintain the body.
"I would like to ask what you think of Ronaldinho as a player." Jose blew the tea leaves twice, then put down the cup and asked straight to the point.
"Ronaldinho?" Piri was stunned for a moment, then closed his eyes and thought for a while, then flipped through the pile of information in front of him, then pulled out a piece of paper and handed it to Jose.
Jose took the paper handed over by Piri without any surprise, lowered his head and looked at it - this was originally one of the reasons why he came to see Pili.
"Ronaldinho has extremely high talent and physical fitness. Although he is not tall or strong, he is very strong, which allows him to not lose his balance when facing the collision of European players. , and he does not seem to be easily injured. His skills are that of a typical South American player, quite gorgeous, with flexible ankles and excellent ball feel. He also has a very good overall view, but he needs to hone and strengthen the relationship with his teammates. With the cooperation, he will become an indispensable player for Mallorca. As long as there are no problems with him, Mallorca may not have to worry about the interest of many teams in him in a few years."
Pirie's comments were not many, but this was in line with his style. Every item in that Pirie report was concise and to the point, but went straight to the core. This evaluation is the same.
Jose nodded slightly. Regarding Ronaldinho's evaluation, Jose and Piri had the same opinion, but he still needed to ask a question.
"Piri, what do you think... Ronaldinho's best position should be?" Jose put down the paper and handed it back to Piri. This was also part of his previous promise. He would only review the comments and not keep a copy for himself. This was also a move that made Pili feel more at ease.
Piri took the paper handed over by Jose and put it back in place while saying: "Sorry, Jose, I am just the technical director, not the coach... to evaluate a player's strengths and weaknesses and judge his future." Development is my responsibility, but the status of a player and the tactical framework within which he should maximize his value and the position he should play... this is the job of the coach."
After saying this, Piri sorted out the information and turned to Jose with a satisfied smile: "Jose, it's not that I'm being pretentious, but I know that I'm not a coach. I knew this when I was the coach of the Real Madrid youth team. I could know how much development these children would have in the future, but I could not lead them to victory. So after coming out of the youth team, my position was technical director instead of Head coach."
"Uh." Jose choked. He was originally wondering why Piri, who came from Real Madrid's youth team, did not naturally take over the position of Real Madrid's head coach but became the technical director. Now that Piri said it, he understood. .
It's no wonder that some people are only suitable for commenting and not coaching. Although Piri has an excellent eye for judging players, he does not have the qualities to become an excellent coach. And he is not happy to be only an assistant coach or a youth team coach. Only then did he embark on the path of technical director - in Spanish clubs, this position is very important.
"It's okay, Pili. Telling it will at least give me one more direction to consider... No matter what, I don't mean to blame you, nor will it affect my judgment. It's just a reference. That's all." Jose said sincerely.
Seeing him like this, Pili thought for a while, and then said: "He is very fast. Although he is not particularly fast, his explosive power is quite good, so his position must be further forward. And although his confrontation ability is very Excellent, but not a muscular player, and it is not suitable to be at the front. At the same time, although he can also score, he does not have a particularly strong scoring ability. In short, it is best for him to play as a forward at the front. It's inappropriate, that may allow him to score more goals, but it won't allow him to fully unleash his potential, not to mention his passing awareness and organizational skills are also quite excellent, and this aspect needs to be well cultivated."
When Piri said something, Jose nodded—José and Piri had the same view in this regard.
After thinking for a while, Piri nodded: "If I have to say, the second forward, attacking midfielder, or the left forward position among the three forwards is his most suitable position. Any further forward No, being too far back will also reduce his threat a lot."
