Chapter 229
Chapter 229
There is a famous saying in football - the world's stalks are one stone, Arsenal monopolize eight fights!
Randall thinks it is not correct, it should be changed to - the stems of the world share one stone, Arsenal and the England national team have a total of eight fights!
In Randall's heart, San Meow is on the same level as Arsenal, with countless stalks.
The position of coach of the England national team is the biggest scapegoat in the world, whoever takes over will bear it!
Randall didn't need to take the blame, he took the magpie well.
But Randall also knows that if San Meow doesn't change coaches, he will have to watch the European Cup at home in 08.
As a famous rain battle, in the rain at Wembley Stadium in December 07, the tears of Beckham and Crouch stayed in Randall's mind like McLaren's flower umbrella.
When the FA chairman Thompson called, Randall politely refused, but what if Beckham's tears were replaced by Owen's?What about Parker?What about his big black "Sister"?
This made Randall a little concerned.
He is not so controlling that he does not even allow players to lose in his own national team. You must know that he has experienced both the World Cup and the America's Cup. He is really disgraced in the group stage, and it is [-] times better than watching at home.
This is no longer a disgrace, but that the generals are incompetent!
This is what Randall cares about, or rather, what he wants to protect-he doesn't want his players to be labeled as incompetent, because they are the best players in the world!They play for the best club in the world!
"Don't you love us if we're not Anthony?" said Owen, threateningly and every Englishman who looked at him in disbelief!
Do you have any dissatisfaction?
I'm not acting like a baby for England!
Randall is also speechless, this is going all out, and he will lose his face...
He spread his hands. "I've said no, and McLaren still has a chance—"
"Come on!" Owen interrupted him rarely, his blond hair, which was as bright as Randall's, shone under the crystal lamp, and his face, which was more rigid, was extremely indifferent, "That's a waste."
The whole room was very quiet.
Randall couldn't even refute it-the England team with Owen, Rooney, Beckham, Gerrard, and Lampard in the midfield, with Terry, Ferdinand, and Ashley Cole in the defense, is actually in the same group. The opponents are Andorra, Macedonia, Israel, Estonia, Russia, and Croatia. Can't qualify in the group?
In terms of success or failure, McLaren is indeed a waste.
Owen coldly defined McLaren, and looked at Randall expectantly.
He didn't say anything, but said it all with a requesting look.
Randall could understand Irving.
As the top card of the three meows, as one of the biggest favorites of this year's Golden Globe Award, if England fails to qualify in the qualifiers, it means that Irving will hand over the Golden Globe Award to his competitors-Messi, Kaka .
Kaka, who has won the Copa America and runner-up in the Champions League, is very likely to win the Golden Ball if his performance in the second half of the year is not too bad and he does not have the task of the national competition.
The Ballon d'Or has yet to be decided, but the label of "incompetence" is intolerable to the players in the room.
"BOSS——" it was Parker who had been silent since he came in.
Randall looked at Parker, but he didn't wait to follow up, he only saw Parker's eyes.
The room was quiet.
After almost 1 minute, the "late" Shearer said: "I just answered a call, Bobby's. He said that Thompson hopes he can convince you. If you really disagree, then the FA hopes he can." Take over the team."
Randall looked at Shearer in disbelief, and Shearer nodded with difficulty, "You know Bobby is a workaholic."
"He's over 70 years old! Does the FA always want him to be pulled away by an ambulance on the sidelines?" Randall asked Shearer almost growling.
Facing his gaze, Hiller could only smile wryly.
He didn't speak, only because he knew Randall understood.
Eriksson failed.
Choosing from the local coaches is like picking the tallest from the dwarfs!In terms of ability and prestige, Bobby Robson is the last and only choice of the FA.
Randall stared at Shearer with a bitter expression, thinking about this guy's national team career, and finally pursed his lips, "I will work part-time until the end of the qualifiers."
The final match of the qualifiers is December, the most intense month for the Magpies.
Shearer said with ecstasy: "No problem! No problem! They should understand our Club World Cup!"
Randall nodded of course. For the sake of the Club World Cup, the FA Cup and the league will inevitably need the FA to help adjust the schedule. He is obliged to help. This schedule advantage is not given, let the FA go!
Hiller was nodding, when he saw Randall squinting at him, his smile was gradually disappearing, and his face turned stiff, Randall stared at him with a cold face and said: "There should be two games in September, and there should be two games in September. There should be one game in November, two games in November, and five games will be taken—”
Shearer raised his hand: "I promise to let them find a spare tire!"
Randall still stared at him, this look made Hiller suddenly regret it!What did he promise!He should make Thompson say yes!
"Ask Thompson to promise me!" Randall looked at him coldly. What's the use of asking Hiller to promise?
The corner of Owen's mouth raised slightly, and he finally held back.
What's the use of getting Thompson guaranteed?That guy is busy as hell, he also has to serve as the vice president of UEFA, and he has to bid for the World Cup. Randall wants to throw the whip halfway, and he has to wait until after the 08 European Cup.
Parker poked him secretly, Owen glanced at him, Parker gave him a slight hint, and Owen straightened his expression, for fear that Randall's anger would be directed at him later.
A four-line coach who works part-time in the national team is basically equivalent to a year-round rotation. Even if Randall is young and tough, he is exhausted. In addition, the coaching position of the England national team is like a furnace. Sitting on it is suffering.The applause belongs to you when you win, and the curses continue when you lose.
The point is that the English people and the media always think highly of themselves. In their eyes, England is the champion and should win every time.So how many coaches have changed in the past ten years, applause?nonexistent.The scolding is deserved.
Hargreaves looked at the two, then glanced at Shearer, who was holding Shearer to ask him to discuss some detailed requirements with the FA, and twitched his mouth slightly.
Not having to play for a bum like McLaren would be... great!
Randall still called Ferguson, although the old man said "Randall is the most suitable candidate" when interviewed by reporters.In fact, as soon as I turned my head, I called him to tell him not to be stupid.
At this moment, after hearing what he said, Ferguson really raised the 40-meter hair dryer——
"What's on your mind? Soy milk?"
"Has a championship made you ecstatic and don't know why?"
"You chose the most rubbish job in the world! No one!"
"Mourinho is the most suitable candidate, you can watch the show with me! Then send text messages to mock him! Now the person I want to text to mock has become you!"
……
Randall could understand Ferguson's anger, really.
But he didn't expect Ferguson to wait to see Mourinho's jokes, so he thought that Mourinho's next job would be England?
Whether Mourinho is suitable for England is actually hard to say, because it has not happened in the history he knows, so how can he know the result?
After spraying for a while, Ferguson was also tired now, panting and asked: "Okay, tell me the reason!"
"Bobby."
Ferguson was silent, and cursed another swear word beginning with F before saying to him: "Remember to sign a contract with them, they have plenty of money!"
"……it is good."
"I'll greet Leo and the others."
"Grateful!"
"You'd better pray that you can be brought into the European Cup smoothly, and your mental capacity is strong enough, otherwise I will wait to watch your jokes with José and the others!"
"You know me." Randall responded tactfully.
Ferguson didn't spray him again this time, and only whispered between his rebuttals: "When are you going to take it?"
"Alan and I emphasized that the qualifiers are over. You know—" Randall was interrupted by Ferguson's laughter before he finished speaking. After explaining the idea, he smiled and said: "That's pretty good. I'm just waiting for your Christmas crash, and you will win the fourth place after the Club World Cup!"
Randall was silent.
It's okay for the old man to make fun of him, after all, he couldn't bear to find a fault, but a big crash?
He was full of fighting spirit and said: "Sir! See you at the work!"
Fight for four?
It is absolutely impossible to compete for four!Absolutely absolutely impossible!
A crash is also impossible, and he is busy, not the players.
Ferguson said to himself: "Now you are not the only ones with two wins and one tie, boy, just wait to lose!"
Randall chuckled, and ended the call with Sir Alex very connotatively.
There is a very special match in the Deer Cup, which is the Community Shield between Newcastle and Manchester United.
Four warm-up matches were originally planned, how to arrange the duel of five teams?Putting in the matchup between Manchester United and Newcastle in the Community Shield, this is the solution given by the Premier League and the FA after consultation.This also led to a little bit of gold content in the Deer Cup, because it is not just a warm-up match, but also an official game.
Randall then sent several text messages, to Robson Sr., to Mendes and CEO Ron Gourley, and to Wenger and... Mourinho.
Because Wenger, Mourinho and him had the same time difference, he received the text message from the former almost in seconds, and the latter responded a bit special-knock on the door.
Randall had no desire to open the door.
Mourinho did not want to pass up the opportunity to ridicule him at all.
In the end Randall reluctantly let the tongue-in-cheek guy in, before Mourinho taunted him—
"Sir told me he was expecting you to take the job and laugh at you."
Mourinho, who was about to vent his sarcasm: "..."
Randall added: "Come with me."
Mourinho: "..."
eccentric!Those two old men are eccentric!
