Fox in the Penalty Area

“Not renewing the contract with the national team?”

Hong Renjie was taken aback for a moment and came back to his senses. He understood what Dong Jianhai was talking about. He quickly persuaded: “Don’t listen to those people on the Internet screaming. In fact, the Football Association is satisfied with your work…”

Dong Jianhai waved his hand and signaled Hong Renjie not to continue:

“Actually, I know how many jins are in my mind, and I think the fans on the Internet are also right. The decision not to renew the contract has been deliberated, and I am really not suitable for leading this team.”

“Where is it not suitable? Didn’t you bring it well? I feel you are getting better, old Dong.” When Hong Renjie said so, he patted Dong Jianhai on the shoulder as a sign of encouragement. “Look at this game against the Japanese team. How good is your substitution adjustment… The Internet is now all complimenting you!”

Dong Jianhai shook his head: “A game cannot explain any problems. It is impossible to count on this game to make the Chinese team enter the World Cup, right?”

“A game can’t make the Chinese team into the World Cup, but it doesn’t mean it can’t explain anything. Based on the things in this game, make some changes…”

When Hong Renjie said that, Dong Jianhai never stopped shaking his head.

After he finished speaking, Dong Jianhai said in a very sincere tone: “Old Hong, don’t think I have any other ideas. I really think that I am not the best person to lead this team. My ability, just That’s a little bit…so I think after the Asian Cup, we will break up, which is good for everyone. lest I continue to lead the team and lose in the World Cup qualifiers and make the Chinese team have no chance of qualifying. Became the sinner of Chinese football through the ages…”

“Exaggerated, Old Dong.”

“Well, it is indeed an exaggeration.” Dong Jianhai nodded, “The Football Association will not wait until I really overturned the Chinese team before firing me.”

“…” Hong Renjie was speechless.

Seeing the other side’s depressed look, Dong Jianhai laughed: “I’m serious. I don’t have the confidence to lead this team to the World Cup in three years. Don’t embarrass me… I’m the one who can beat Japan. The result of all efforts, and good luck. I think it would be nice to end here. At least I can have a good reputation…”

Although Dong Jianhai said this with a smile, Hong Renjie felt firm in his tone.

Obviously, the other party did not say it casually, it was indeed the result of careful consideration…

So Hong Renjie’s good mood after defeating the Japanese team suddenly disappeared.

He thought he didn’t need to worry about the national football coach, but in the end he was busy working in vain…

Hong Renjie sighed.

Hearing him sighing, Dong Jianhai comforted him in turn: “Don’t sigh, Lao Hong. You guys work harder now, and you won’t get scolded a little bit later. Really, you believe me.”

After speaking, he turned and left, and went back to the restaurant for dinner.

Hong Renjie did not go back with him, but just stood there in a daze.

Then he took out his mobile phone and looked at the messages on Weibo calling for the Football Association to renew the contract with Dong Jianhai as soon as possible, and gave a wry smile.

In the head coach’s office, Yu Jintao met Dillon again.

When the latter saw him, he said to Jin Tao with a surprised to exaggerated expression: “Yu, just half an hour ago, I received a call from my agent and your football association contacted him. Are they crazy? After leading the team to play such a beautiful game, still dissatisfied with Dong?”

Yu Jintao was also surprised.

But before he thought of what to say, the office door behind him was pushed open again, and the club general manager Xue Chaoyu walked in.

Seeing Yu Jintao there, he nodded to him: “It just happens that Yu Jintao is also there. Have you heard of it?”

“I just came…” Yu Jintao said.

“It’s okay, you come to help me translate.” Xue Chaoyu said and walked to Jorge Dillon.

“Jorge, the club received a call from the Football Association. They hope you can coach the national team.”

Yu Jintao first digested the news quickly in his heart, and then translated it.

Dillon shrugged: “My agent also received a call from them. It seems that your football association is a little anxious? But I don’t understand. Dong Mingming did a good job in the national team. He just led the team and defeated the Japanese team. Me. Hear, you haven’t beaten Japan in almost 30 years…”

He said a lot, and Yu Jintao translated it in the past: “Dillon’s agent also received a call from the Football Association, and he was puzzled.”

Xue Chaoyu nodded: “I don’t understand it, but what’s the point. The Football Association means that the club can cooperate… Oh, this sentence does not need to be translated to him. Just ask Dillon what he thinks, we The club respects his personal opinion. If he doesn’t want to go, we will never force it-you must translate this last sentence to him.”

Dillon shrugged after listening to Yu Jintao’s translation: “I can’t reply now, because I need to understand what the Football Association thinks first…”

“Didn’t they talk about it on the phone with your agent?” Yu Jintao asked first, and then relayed Dillon’s answer to Xue Chaoyu.

“They just said they were willing to talk, and my agent didn’t talk to them in depth on this issue over the phone.”

“But I don’t think there is much to talk about, Jorge.” Yu Jintao said to Dillon. “The biggest difference between you before was how to treat the Asian Cup. Now Dong Jianhai has led the team to play in the Asian Cup, so the differences between you no longer exist.”

“Do you think I should accept it?” Dillon asked him.

“Don’t you think of yourself as the coach of the national team?”

“How is it possible?” Dillon laughed, thinking that what he had translated was a bit nonsense.

“Otherwise, why do you pay so much attention to the national team’s game? And when you watched the game yesterday, you talked so much. I really thought you had considered the problem from the perspective of the national team coach.” Yu Jintao was very much. Replied seriously.

This made Dillon stunned for a while, and then he laughed again: “Hey, you are right, Yu. Maybe I have been eager to coach those lovely young people in my heart…”

Then he turned to Xue Chaoyu, who was waiting patiently next to him: “Manager Xue, sorry, I can’t fulfill my contract with the club anymore.”

Xue Chaoyu turned to look at Yu Jintao, who told him: “Dillon wants to coach the national team.”

He sighed softly when he heard the words: “Oh…”

He is very sorry, but there is no way, this is the will of the country.

Generally speaking, if the Football Association wants someone to be the head coach, it only needs to contact that person. Why do you want to say hello to the club this time?

The implication does not mean “I hope that the club will cooperate with the release of people, and not artificially set up obstacles.”

Although Jorge Dillon and Dashun Golden Arrow Club have a contract, if Dillon must go, they will not be able to stop it. Just need Dillon to pay liquidated damages.

The purpose of this call by the Football Association may be to hope that the club will not embarrass Dillon on the liquidated damages, resulting in the fact that they cannot go to the national team in the end.

I just didn’t say directly, “If you negotiate to terminate the contract, don’t ask for liquidated damages.”…

Of course, this kind of remarks can never be really said, after all, some superficial skills must be done in place, and they can’t be realized.

But as the general manager of a club with a high level of consciousness, how could Xue Chaoyu not know the way?

He can only say that the club must cooperate, but he still has to respect Dillon’s opinions.

The implication is that if foreigners don’t give you the face of the Football Association, then you can’t blame our club…

He hoped that Dillon would refuse the Football Association.

Dillon has done a good job with the Golden Arrows in recent years. Under his leadership, although Golden Arrows did not win the championship, the age structure of the first team has been greatly improved, and the team’s performance has stabilized in the top five of the league. name.

Xue Chaoyu had a hunch, he thought that as long as he gave the old man some more time, Golden Arrow would definitely be able to return to the top.

And the peak by then is the actual peak, not the illusory bubble that begins to decline after a season.

Even if Dillon no longer coaches, the team will be able to develop soundly.

Now that he hasn’t waited until the harvest time, Dillon is about to leave… How can Xue Chaoyu be willing?

This old man… When we first looked for him, didn’t he say that he agreed to us because he wanted to find an easy job? He also said that the Golden Arrows will be the last team he will bring in his career…

Now to coach in the Chinese team, what kind of “easy work”? !

“The club respects your personal wishes, Mr. Dillon. We will contact your agent directly regarding the subsequent termination of the contract.”

Dillon nodded: “I’m sorry, Manager Xue. I hope you can find a successor as soon as possible…I also know some friends in Europe. If you want, I can help you match up…”

“Thank you, Mr. Dillon. If we need it, we will definitely ask you for help.”

After speaking, Xue Chaoyu turned around and left.

After knowing Dillon’s attitude, he had nothing to say. It is indeed necessary to start the selection work immediately.

Dillon’s successor is hard to find…

Enough for him to have a headache.

The new season of the Chinese Super League is about to start, but now it has to change coaches temporarily. The team’s performance this season is destined to not be much better.

It seems that the club is about to re-set its goals for the new season…

Sending away Xue Chaoyu~www.wuxiax.com~Yu Jintao and Dillon back to the office, the latter took him by the shoulders: “You will go to the national team with me, right, Yu?”

Yu Jintao grinned: “Of course, Jorge, I really want to go to the national team too!”

“Great! With you here, I feel more relieved!” Dillon happily squeezed Yu Jintao’s shoulders, then let go, and walked around the office. Although he is almost 70 years old, he is as happy as a child.

After the initial excitement, Dillon quickly calmed down, frowned and asked: “The only question, Dong has done a good job in the national team, why did the Football Association still look for me? Are they not satisfied with Dong’s performance in the Asian Cup? But then we have to wait until the Asian Cup is over. Or… they think the Chinese team will definitely not be able to win Iran?”

He said to himself.

Yu Jintao next to him shook his head: “I don’t know. If you are really curious, you can directly ask the Football Association.”
