Super Marshal

The thunderous roar unique to the sports car came from far to near, and a red Porsche 911 with a cool appearance came from a distance with lightning speed, and quickly shuttled through the La Finca neighborhood in the western suburbs of Madrid.

Arriving outside the gate of Gao Han's house, he flicked his tail sharply, turned a corner, and the front of the car got in.

Suddenly a car broke into the car, which startled the three people in the garden.

Seeing clearly that it was a red Porsche, I immediately knew who it was.

The car door was wide open, and Jorge Mendes got out of the car with a smile on his face. Before leaving, he passed by the front of the car. He didn't forget to touch the red body of the car. It felt like he was touching his girlfriend. , soft and full of affection.

"Ms. Lin, good morning." Mendes greeted from a distance.

"Good morning, Jorge." Lin Xia smiled sweetly.

The Portuguese looked at Chu Yao at the side again, and was about to raise his hand to say hello, but felt that the other party's eyes were extremely unfriendly, and his heart shivered.

Well, offend this Ultraman early in the morning!

"I'm sorry, Ms. Chu, I just picked up the car yesterday, so I was a little too excited." Mendes hurriedly apologized.

This female Ultraman is not as good-tempered as Lin Xia, so it's better to be careful.

"It's rare to have a vacation, what are you still doing?" Mendes walked to the opposite of Gao Han, and sat down honestly.

Lin Xia obediently washed him a teacup and poured him a cup of freshly brewed hot tea.

"Write a letter." Gao Han replied without raising his head.

"Writing a letter?" Mendes just took a sip of tea and almost spit it out in front of his face. "What year is this? Are you still writing letters?"

But soon, he asked Lin Xia next to him, "Is it the one from last time?"

Lin Xia nodded with a smile, "One letter a week, without interruption."

"Okay, this female fan is really sincere." Mendes was also surprised.

It is not surprising that female fans write letters to entertainment stars, football stars and so on.

But like the one Gao Han met, one letter a week is really enough.

"Hey, what do you guys usually talk about in your letters?" Mendes suddenly started to gossip and asked.

Gao Han still didn't look up, "It's nothing, just talking about some messy trivia. In the latest letter, she said that she watched the live broadcast of us playing Manchester United, and said that she dreamed that we entered the final."

"Okay, I even dreamed of dreaming, so what do you say?"

"I said, if she really makes it to the final, I will give her a ticket." Gao Han replied casually.

But as soon as he finished speaking, he raised his head and looked at Mendes, who was full of gossip.

"Hey, let me say, Mr. Mendez, is your agent too strict?"

Looking into the distance again, Gao Han laughed when he saw the red Porsche.

"I often hear people say that a fifty-year-old man has a flower, and you are so flirtatious that you actually bought a red one."

"What's the matter with red?" Mendez was reluctant to hear, "Besides, I'm only in my early forties."

Gao Han just smiled and stopped talking.

A man in his early forties, driving a red Porsche 911 out, isn't this picture too hot?

Lin Xia also smiled at the side, knowing that the two had something to say, she greeted Chu Yao, and the two went back to the house.

"The management of Atletico Madrid should be looking for you, right?" Mendes asked with concern.

Gao Han nodded, "We've talked about it."

"Then what do you mean?"

"Never let any player go during the winter break, summer transfer... I don't ask."

Gao Han knew in his heart that the club also had its difficulties.

Atletico Madrid is no longer the Atlético de Madrid a few years ago, and the Hill family is no longer the Hill family.

Although today's Sheets Corps still holds the title of the third giant in La Liga, no matter from which point of view, compared with Real Madrid and Barcelona, ​​the gap is too wide.

This is not something that can be achieved overnight, or just by relying on excellent results in just two or three years.

If Atletico Madrid really wants to compete with the giants, or even join the giants, it must adopt a pragmatic business strategy.

Selling away a few leading stars and retaining the backbone is the team's long-term plan.

Gao Han agrees with the club's ideas, but he also has a requirement, that is, it cannot affect the team's performance this season, and everything has to wait until the end of the season.

This point, the management also agreed face to face.

"To tell you the truth, there are many rich clubs talking to me about Kaka, and they are all sincere. I don't even want to answer the phone for anything less than 30 million euros."

When Mendes said this, he sighed, "It may be difficult for Atletico Madrid to keep people."

A camp made of iron, soldiers of flowing water.

For European professional teams, whether it is the head coach or the players, it is normal to come and go.

"What about you? What do you think?" Mendes asked again.

Gao Han shook his head, "I haven't thought about it yet."

As soon as the league kicked off, one game after another, he didn't even have time to think about it.

"Hey, by the way, do you know Kesh Harris?"

"I don't know, who is it?"

"The chairman of Seymour Pierce Investment Bank in the City of London, UK, is also the most famous professional sports investment consultant in Europe. In the past few years, many foreign capital acquisitions of British teams have been operated by him."

"Oh." Gao Han was not very interested in these.

"In a few days, he will hold a party in London and invite me to it. Do you want to go and have fun together?"

Gao Han hurriedly waved his hands again and again, "No, I'm not interested in this kind of thing."

"I heard that there will be many super rich people and beautiful models. If you go, there must be a chance."

"Then you can't go, you know I'm not suitable for that kind of occasion."

Mendes also chuckled, of course he understands Gao Han's character, he was just joking just now.

But he didn't lie about one thing.

This party will indeed invite many super rich people, and they are all interested in the Premier League team.

Kesh Harris still said on the phone that he was going to introduce a great big shot to him.

In this regard, Mendes is looking forward to it.

I don't know, how old is the big man Kesh Harris is talking about?

…………

Strictly speaking, the winter break of La Liga is not long, because it will restart immediately after entering January.

Therefore, generally speaking, the team will resume training after Christmas.

In other words, the only days that really count as vacations are those few days.

Because other things were delayed, Gao Han didn't even have time to go back to China.

After Christmas, the team resumed training, and the second half of the fight was about to begin.

The sixteenth round of La Liga was scheduled for January 4, 2003, which happened to be Saturday.

The first game to start was Athletic Bilbao's away game against Racing Santander.

Heynckes' team got off to a bad start, conceding two goals in a row.

Before the end of the first half, the two teams once again played a wave of climax. First, Athletic Bilbao scored a goal, and then Racing Santander scored another goal.

But what really caught people's eyes was in the second half, when they were behind 1-3, Heynckes' team insisted on scoring three goals in a row and won the first game of the new year 4-3, completing a An astonishing reversal.

This battle also gave Heynckes great praise.

Although Athletic Bilbao's ranking is not ideal this season, Gao Han knows in his heart that the team's strength is limited, and Heynckes' coaching still has his own ideas and ideas, and he is also a very capable head coach.

Heynckes reversed successfully, but Aragones was not so lucky.

Real Mallorca lost 0-3 to Sevilla in the away game, and returned home with hatred again.

Reyes shined in the audience and performed quite brilliantly.

Barcelona beat Huelva 3-0 at home, and Van Gaal temporarily kept his position.

But the real surprise is the focus of Real Madrid vs. Valencia.

With Ronaldo's goal in the first half, the Galaxy Battleship temporarily led Valencia.

But after the start of the second half, Ayala's goal helped the Bat Corps get back a game.

The turning point of the game came in the 64th minute, when Aimar was sent off with a red card, Valencia was defeated, and Real Madrid scored three goals without mercy.

In the end, four to one, Galaxy Battleship won the first victory of the new year!

Relatively speaking, Atletico Madrid's first game of the new year was a bit uneventful.

Two to zero, defeated Villarreal away, and both goals occurred in the first half.

After finishing the sixteenth round of La Liga, the Copa del Rey game soon ushered in.

In the first round, Atletico Madrid defeated Sares cleanly and 2-0 away, and basically advanced steadily.

After returning to Madrid, they ushered in their opponents in the seventeenth round of La Liga, Deportivo.

Irueta's team has been very unhappy recently. The main midfielder Belleron was injured, which seriously affected Deportivo's performance.

On the other hand, Atletico Madrid, relying on the strong overall strength of the team, still suppressed their opponents safely.

In just one minute of the opening, Villa took the lead in scoring for the Sheets.

After that, Torres and Kaka also scored successively, and Deportivo was pulled back by Ma Kai.

The final score was 3 to 1, and Atletico Madrid won this strong dialogue.

In this round of away games, Real Madrid was away. With Ronaldo's goal in the sixth minute, they beat Celta Vigo 1-0 and also won.

The Madrid duo has occupied the first and second place in the league standings for a long time, which has also become a great spectacle in Spanish football.

Three days later, Atletico Madrid sat at home and ushered in Zarez again.

The sheet army, which won the first round away game and basically advanced ahead of schedule, has a rotation and a substitute lineup to play this time. Gao Han didn't even put the main players in the squad, but let them concentrate on rest and prepare for the weekend's Madrid derby.

Even so, the Sheets Legion still defeated Sares 3-0 cleanly at home and advanced to the quarterfinals.

On the other hand, Real Madrid had a 3-3 away game against Pint LS in the first round. After returning to the Bernabeu, they also played not easily. They barely defeated their opponents 4-2 and advanced to the quarterfinals.

The performance in the Copa del Rey naturally affected the weekend league.

For the fourth Madrid derby of the new season, the Spanish media are generally optimistic about Atletico Madrid, but a small part of the media, including Aspen, continue to support Real Madrid.

They believe that after Ronaldo joined the team, Real Madrid's overall strength has been greatly improved, and they are ready to compete with Atletico Madrid.

However, some media broke the news that the Real Madrid management's attitude towards this game is very conservative, and a tie is considered qualified.

This also surprised the media and fans alike.

Looking at the entire European football world, Atletico Madrid is probably the only one who can make the high-ranking Real Madrid so afraid, or even show weakness.
