Chapter 45

As soon as Endrit came out of Mourinho's house, he sent a message to Mendes, saying that he needed him to pick him up to the club the next morning.

Mendes agreed directly without asking him why. At that time, Endrit thought that Mendes was a good agent. But the next day, when he went out and walked to Mendes' car, he opened the passenger door and found an old man sitting inside.

Endrit: ...

"You sit in the back," Mourinho reached out and pulled the seat belt on his body, "My car broke down and Mendes just happened to give me a ride."

Endrit opened his mouth and wanted to slam the car door shut, but after glancing at Mourinho's ear, he gently closed the door, turned around and sat in the back seat.

As this person gets older, hearing is still very important. If this is because he has affected Mourinho's coaching career, then even three of them would not be enough to compensate him.

As soon as he got in the car and looked up, Endrit saw Mendes' apologetic eyes in the rearview mirror. Endrit shook his head slightly at him to indicate that it was okay.

Mendes heaved a sigh of relief, stepped on the accelerator and set off for Chelsea: He didn't think much about it after receiving the news from Endrit last night. He originally wanted to send a driver directly, but then he thought that Endrit was now one of his most precious players, so Mendes drove over to pick him up himself.

The car stopped at the door of Endrit's house. Just after sending a message to Endrit to let him get off, Mendes' driver's window was knocked several times...

And then, it's like this now.

As the common agent of the two, it was difficult for him to adjust in the early stage when he didn't know why the conflict between the two of them occurred, because he always felt that the timing was not right. So in the end he could only bite the bullet and speed up, hoping to drive to Chelsea as soon as possible.

"Mendez," adults are usually too embarrassed to apologize out loud, and Mourinho's apology to this extent was already the limit, so Endrit took the initiative to say, "Can I treat you to a meal when I have time?

"Okay," Mendes immediately responded, "So what are we going to eat?"

"We'll see when the time comes. Coach, are you going? Tell Ms. Maltide to go with you."

Mourinho hummed inaudibly, "Then I'll treat you then."

“Yeah!”

Mendes couldn't help laughing and was in a good mood. Even though he couldn't find out why the two had a conflict before no matter how much he asked on the road, he didn't get anxious: these two were not Ronaldinho.

As soon as he got off the car, Endrit immediately said that he was going to the locker room to change his jersey and start today's training, but Mourinho said that he had prepared Endrit's training plan and needed Endrit to go to the office with him to get it.

When they got to the office, Mourinho took out a new training plan and patted Endrit on the head. "Why are you so impatient? You just believed what I said? Are you going to miss the ball if the opponent's forward flicks you on the court? What will you do when the opponent talks trash to you in the future? Will you beg them not to say it to you?"

Endrit was stunned for a moment, "Huh?"

"Your legs aren't long, but you can run pretty fast."

Endrit ran away after finishing his meal, and as soon as Mourinho looked up, he disappeared. Maltide even blamed him for teasing the children... God, what did he tease? It would be a blessing if this child didn't make him angry.

Endrit immediately stood up straight and glanced down at Mourinho, who was not even as high as his shoulder. "Coach, what did you just say? It's too windy up there, I can't hear you!"

Mourinho raised his foot to kick him, but Endrit dodged and ran away with a smile, "Coach, I'm going to warm up first. Goodbye, Coach!"

………

Last season, Mourinho tried to integrate Sheva and Ballack into the team, so he deliberately changed the team formation to a diamond-shaped 442, and even fielded a midfield without wide lanes in several games.

Before Sheva and Ballack came, Chelsea was best at winger tactics, and they dominated the Premier League for two consecutive years with this winger tactics. If Chelsea can continue to use this winger tactic and continue to add the players needed for this tactic, it will sooner or later become a top team in the world.

But two seasons later, Duff, one of the front three, left directly. The players who had not had much rest in two seasons also suffered frequent injuries this season. If they want to continue winning, they have to add suitable players to the corresponding positions.

Then Abramovich bought Sheva and Ballack, two players who were incompatible with the winger tactics.

Mourinho doesn't want to use him either, but now there is no one else available. He failed to snatch Alves from Barcelona in the summer transfer window this year, so he had to settle for the second best and buy Belletti from Barcelona. However, Belletti's performance in the last game was only mediocre and did not meet Mourinho's expectations at all.

But honestly speaking, because so many things this season did not meet his expectations, Mourinho was very calm: after letting Robben go, the 433 formation could no longer be played, so he could either continue to play the 433 formation, winning one game and losing several.

Or we can play 422 with wingers from now on and give the new tactics a try.

Not to mention that the team has Endrit now, even if Endrit is not there, Mourinho will still use the new tactics to play, because he is not the kind of person who is afraid of failure and dare not play.

Last season, Chelsea played a 4222 endless tactics, and the midfield was very chaotic. In the end, they relied on a controversial penalty to beat the not-so-strong Blackburn. After the game, Mourinho was ridiculed by many media, saying that he was just copying others, learning the Brazilian team's magic quartet in vain, and staged a "very embarrassing attack" on the court.

Mourinho directly refuted the media on the spot, "If we Chelsea have Kaka and Ronaldinho like the Brazilian team, we can win the game even if we are all substitutes, so think about it yourself, is there any comparison between the two?"

Mourinho was not embarrassed at all. After being hooked by Endrit this season, the initial tactical formation for the game against Reading was a 4-2-2-2. After playing for more than ten minutes without any effect, Mourinho changed the formation on the spot, letting the attacking midfielder and Sheva and Ballack on both sides form an "inverted triangle" position: in short, the formation was changed all the time, and the final victory over Reading was all thanks to Endrit standing in front of the goal and preventing the opponent from scoring.

After the game with Reading, Mourinho directly threw away the plan of using two tactical formations, because he found that training would be slow, and most importantly, the players who played in both formations performed worse on the court than those who played in only one formation.

Too many tactics will affect the players' judgment on the court: Generally speaking, players' judgment on the court is subconscious. If you practice both sets, which one will you subconsciously react to at that time?

It will take some time to come up with a tactical formation that suits the team's current players as much as possible.

Of course, for Mourinho, this period of time was a relatively stable game. On the third day after the match with Liverpool, Mourinho asked the players to start practicing the 4-4-2 formation that was used in the match against Portsmouth.

………

Abramovich's Ukrainian action figure is handsome, speaks good Russian, and plays football well, but he suffered injuries within a few games after coming to the Premier League, exposing his weakness in confrontation.

Sheva's best goal requires a sprint of more than ten meters. He needs someone like Kaka to feed him the ball, but Chelsea obviously does not have Kaka.

Endrit's previous cooperation with Sheva was that if Sheva had the opportunity to sprint for a goal when he was on the field, and Endrit happened to kick the ball in front of the goal, then Endrit would kick the ball directly to Sheva, and Sheva would score the goal.

The two of them cooperated well in normal training, but they never encountered this kind of once-in-a-lifetime opportunity in official competitions, so they never showed it.

The cooperation between Sheva and Endrit barely gives Sheva another means of scoring goals. Mourinho will let Sheva come on as a substitute in 4-4-2 formation, and if Wright and Malouda are injured and cannot play, Sheva will have to take over directly. Moreover, with Endrit around this season, he will not be under too much pressure on the defensive end - in this case, Mourinho hopes Sheva can find a new offensive route as soon as possible.

"Since we can't defend in the midfield, then let's not defend at all," Mourinho tapped the tactical board, "Increase your running speed and the success rate of your passes. I don't care whether you run forward or cut inside, as long as you can ensure that you don't collide with each other in the official game, then I won't stipulate how you should run on the court for the time being.

"All frontcourt and midfield players should practice passing the ball together. If the opponent tries to steal your ball during a match, don't hesitate or pass the ball, just shoot!

"We will play the training match tomorrow morning like this," Mourinho paused here and his eyes fell on Ballack, "Ballack, you don't have to train with Lampard for the time being."

Barak hummed softly and lowered his head.

The German Ballack, who has a salary of 120,000 pounds, is even more unlucky than Sheva. Sheva's playing style cannot integrate into the team system. He can start or be a substitute if he changes his playing style and tactics, but Ballack... How to say it, Ballack is incompatible with Lampard in the midfield on the court!

Mourinho tried many times, but the conclusion he came to in the end was so fucked up. It is impossible for Mourinho not to use Lampard, but if he uses Lampard, Ballack is destined to sit on the bench. Unless Lampard is injured and cannot play, it will be difficult for Ballack to start.

There must be many players in this world who are happy to take high salaries without playing, but this definitely does not include Ballack - Ballack has always thought so, but when this season came, seeing that Sheva had the potential to come to the fore, he still had to bear the pressure brought by this damn high salary and failed to score a single goal. He couldn't help but begin to doubt whether it was right for him to transfer here in the first place.

Endrit understood and was aware of Barak's complicated mood at the moment, so Endrit originally wanted to whisper a word or two of comfort, but when his eyes fell on Barak, he couldn't help revealing envy and jealousy.

Endrit put his hands over his eyes, but it seemed that he could not stop his heart from turning into a lemon.

Getting a high salary without having to work, this is something that only happens in dreams!

Please let him bear this damn pressure, he has a great ability to withstand pressure!

Mourinho walked down with his hands behind his back, stretched out his hand and slapped Endrit on the forehead, "We are in a tactical meeting, and you are distracted openly? Do you think I am blind?"

Endrit covered his forehead with his hands and screamed "Ouch!". Every player in the conference room immediately sat up straight and almost shouted in unison, "Hands behind your back."
