Chapter 180 Ridiculous Competition
Real Madrid has always attached great importance to qualifications. After all, since the first and second generations of the Galacticos, Real Madrid has always only bought players who are masters. It was all thanks to him that he spent a lot of money to build this wealthy club.
Such a policy has indeed made Real Madrid stand out from many giants, but it has also essentially caused Real Madrid a lot of trouble. That is, the investment of funds has always been like a bottomless pit, and Real Madrid's financial statements over the years have been full of tricks.
This led to some disagreements among Real Madrid's management. Although Florentino is the chairman of Real Madrid, he is also a typical cost-cutting person. He likes to buy some young and cheap players in the transfer season and train them slowly.
This is the policy of casting a wide net and catching more fish.
Such policies also mean that during Mr. Florentino's two terms as Real Madrid president, the club has been known for buying great players rather than developing them.
The old man is a typical example of casting a wide net to catch more fish, but if the players he catches don't perform well in the season, are not used to the local environment, or don't fit in with the current head coach's lineup, they will be loaned out.
For example, Dani Ceballos.
Ceballos transferred to Real Madrid last year, but he did not get the recognition of Zidane. He did not get many opportunities in Real Madrid, so he was loaned to Arsenal and soon became the absolute main force of the team. He took over the No. 8 jersey left by Ramsey. At the same time, he also filled the vacancy left by Ramsey. He has an excellent ability to read the game and his vision is very broad during the game.
Although he played very well at Arsenal, it was actually a matter of Real Madrid's notification whether to loan him or not, and he himself said that "leaving Real Madrid is only temporary."
Translated it means: I, Hu Hansan, will come back again!
There are many players like Ceballos who are loaned out, so there is another faction in the Real Madrid management, that is, the faction that wants to go out and gain experience. Florentino, it is true that you cast a wide net, but you have to deal with the fish you catch.
Therefore, some management started to think about it.
Especially before, Florentino boasted that he had a unique vision because he caught Eggsy, and proved that the policy of casting a wide net to catch more fish was correct. Now, as long as this person is in the lineup, it is your Florentino's policy of casting a wide net to catch more fish that was a mistake!
So the management thought about getting a midfielder who was on loan back, even if it was just as a substitute, as long as they put him here to annoy Florentino.
If this midfielder who is on loan and doing very well can beat Eggsy in this training match, it will be hard to say who will become the chairman next year.
The purpose is this, but it can't be said that the young midfielder is 3 years older than Eggsy, has more game experience than Eggsy, and most importantly, he came to Real Madrid earlier than Eggsy. He was not included in the lineup system under the former head coach because of his young age.
But now there is a younger Eggsy. It is obvious that the management who are singing a different tune are using this matter to disgust Florentino, and incidentally, Eggsy has been implicated.
Who made him hurt himself just because he was out at this time? Opportunities, excuses, motives, and all the disgusting intrigues of the rich and powerful were all there.
Kroos had never seen this loaned player before, so it was understandable that he mistook him for a 'newcomer'. But now...
Zidane was pressured by the management, but he also resisted tenaciously. Anyway, no matter what, Eggsy won the position of the main force by his own strength. Eggsy still needs to attack the results of the 3 games to prove his ability. Among them, Zidane also took out Eggsy's ability to organize offense and the recommendation of other people in the team to confirm Eggsy's main position.
Moreover, most of the main players feel that if they agree to such a challenge once, there will be a second time. They have all relied on their own strength to get to where they are. They work hard on the court to score goals for the club, but now they are stabbed in the back by people arranged by the club?
This time the management team made it clear that they were going to keep a close eye on Eggsy. Even though his previous performances were excellent, he was still a little inexperienced and a little immature.
However, Zidane doesn't dare to say that he can let Eggsy command the whole court and organize every attack in the unfavorable situation, but at least Zidane has the intention to train him. In the early stage of the favorable situation, he is feeding Eggsy experience points.
Because Zidane knows that it is still the group stage, and once we are out of the group stage... everyone who plays will understand, every game will definitely be extremely difficult.
It is hard to say whether there will be enough passing space for Eggsy to control the field and attack at that time. In the hands of a defensive counterattack expert like Real Madrid, whoever controls the midfield is the boss, so Eggsy and Modric must take a two-pronged approach again.
But don't forget that Real Madrid is fighting on three fronts, and with the World Cup selection approaching, this lineup will be fighting on four fronts for other players after the New Year. Who would believe that there would be no injuries?
Therefore, the management took advantage of the fact that Eggsy is young, has an unstable foundation, has just entered the main force, and happened to be injured, so they are causing trouble.
But to Eggsy, the opponent was really shameless. Eggsy put on his training suit as soon as he returned to Madrid and appeared on the court.
Moreover, there were obvious scars on Eggsy's legs, his hand was fractured and wrapped in gauze and a splint, there were bandages on his arms, and there were wounds at the corners of his mouth - it was too tragic that he had to be pushed onto the court to play in this situation!
Not to mention that his teammates were all furious, Mr. Florentino, who was standing on the ground, was so angry that his back teeth were clenched. However, unlike the boos from others, Florentino was slowly thinking about how to settle the score with the management.
Not only will he be kicked out of the management, but the stocks he holds will also have to shrink in value!
Eggsy and the opposing midfielder had never met each other before, but this time the two of them were playing a ridiculous 1V1, and Eggsy was also very annoyed.
But he knew he needed to defeat his opponent. Eggsy was still stretching his ligaments. He watched his opponent adjust to the best physical condition and knew that he could not fight him head-on, and he was also slightly inferior in physical fitness.
Modric looked at the current situation and saw his teammates cheering for Eggsy and booing the other side. They were trying their best, but he still didn't want Eggsy to play this game with the other side.
"Don't worry." Eggsy looked at the man who was training. He thought for a moment and said, "The rules of this game are also in my favor. After all, whoever scores first wins."
Eggsy saw that the other person was shorter than him, and when he was stretching, he looked at his muscles and guessed. Don't forget that Eggsy originally wanted to apply for the medical school in Cambridge, but the threshold of the medical school was too high, so he chose the physics department.
The whole farce-like game started after the manager's triumphant serve, and the opponent rushed over first and hit Eggsy who was about to get it. Eggsy's body instinctively made a defense, but he still hissed in pain.
There was still gauze on Eggsy's arm, which was full of scratches from when he jumped out of the car. Eggsy shook his hands in pain, and when he found that the ball had been snatched away, he immediately chased after it.
Now Eggsy has lost his initiative, but he will not give up, instead he rushes out quickly. Eggsy is very close to the opponent, and his defense makes it impossible for the opponent to do anything even if he has the ball.
Eggsy patiently played with the opponent for a while, consuming the opponent's physical strength, and when the opponent forced an attack, he instantly stole the opponent's ball, and then did not give the opponent any chance at all. He made a beautiful pass between the man and the ball and shot directly.
When the ball was shot directly into the goal from a long distance, the management who had just been looking at Eggsy's wound with pride suddenly froze their smiles on their faces.
“Yeah yeah yeah!!”
Ronaldo and Kroos on the sidelines were applauding and cheering for Eggsy, while Ramos and Modric rushed in and hugged Eggsy as if they had scored a goal themselves!
"Ahh!" It wasn't other people who were shouting at this time, but Eggsy who was being held in the arms, because Ramos touched the wound on his body. Of course, his shouting also scared Ramos so much that he let go immediately.
"Why are you still in pain?"
"Didn't you say everything is fine? Let's go find the team doctor."
"Why are you such a troublesome kid?"
The management who was still in a daze on the other side obviously couldn't accept this fact. He shook his head and immediately said to Florentino and Zidane in front of him: "No, it's a best-of-three game, and we only scored one goal!"
"It's only one goal, let's see who can score 2 goals first, no, 3 goals!"
The cheating face of this management really made other management feel uncomfortable. For a moment, all the senior management present avoided this person who couldn't afford to lose. As long as they remembered that they had agreed to this stupid proposal before, they felt a little insulted to their IQ.
How on earth did they get tricked by this idiot who couldn't stand losing into causing such a farce?
Mr. Florentino didn't care about the farce. He just saw that the management was there, so he felt that this was an opportunity and spoke directly.
"Now that everyone is here, let's start this management meeting," Florentino glanced at the person who was still persuading the game to become a best-of-three format, but Florentino had already stated the agenda for his meeting.
"Remove the guy who proposed such a ridiculous match from his management position. I think it's a disgrace for Real Madrid to have such a person." Florentino even added fuel to the fire, saying: "Don't let the players here think that our Real Madrid management are all fools."
"Hosting such a game is simply a loss of face and prestige for our management. Think about it, next week is Real Madrid's game week. If the management loses prestige and trust because of a bad apple, think about what these players who have tried their best will think!"
Florentino's remarks have made other management members glare at that idiot, and Florentino's remarks have completely put the hammer on this management member's coffin, forcing him to get out of Real Madrid's top management.
Zidane also walked into the stadium and gently patted Eggsy on the shoulder, saying: "Thank you for your hard work in this farce."
"Take good care of your injury. I hope to see your wonderful performance on the court next week!"
