Born to be a coach [soccer]

Chapter 192

Torres found Anton in the "Green Life" simulator, and he hesitated in his words.

"I, probably, need to see you..."

Anton replied immediately: "No problem, when?"

Now Liverpool's transfer form has begun to make him feel inexplicably nervous.

"Midweek, I'll see you midweek." Player F sent a message in the instant dialog box.

Anton immediately replied: "No, you stay in Liverpool, I'll see you."

Now at this juncture, Torres is a figure on the cusp, and his every move will cause the media to chase him.If Torres is allowed to come to Sunderland... I am afraid it will cause unnecessary misunderstandings.

So Anton decided to drive himself to Liverpool.In addition to thinking about Torres, he also wanted to meet Player K, Sir Kenny Dalglish.Although the various tasks in the club are extremely complicated now, he still can do it if he wants to spare half a day for a trip to Liverpool.

Torres was very grateful for Anton's "both ribs and knives": "Anton, thank you very much!"

He specifically ordered two takeaway English breakfasts and served Anton in the living room of his home.

Anton set off from Sunderland at three o'clock in the morning.It was still far from dawn when he arrived at Torres' home.Fortunately, there were no paparazzi squatting in front of Torres' house.

"What are you thinking about now?" Anton knew that everyone had no time to waste, so he went straight to the point and asked Torres directly.

Don't think about it, Torres is so entangled, it must be because of the question of whether to transfer to Chelsea.Now all kinds of rumors about Torres' transfer are flying all over the sky, and they say everything: some say that Torres promised the fans that he will never leave Liverpool; some say that Torres has met Abramovich in private.

"No...consider it..." Torres looked depressed.

"What do you think?" Anton persuasively tried to get Torres to tell his true thoughts.

Torres thought for a while and said: "I like Liverpool very much. This is a club with a very good atmosphere. I am very happy when I play here..."

Anton scratched his head: "Fernando, everyone thinks my words are 'official', why do I think your words are more official than mine!"

Torres was immediately amused by him, and he seemed a lot more relaxed.He paused for a while before saying: "But I imagined the situation when I went to Chelsea, and I don't think I will regret it after I leave."

Anton immediately pushed the dining table in front of him lightly, and then asked, "Why?"

"Have you thought about those very practical issues? You've been successful at Liverpool, and when you go to Chelsea, what happens if you don't adapt to the new team, what do you do if you don't find your form? You've always scored goals against Chelsea. , what should you do if the fans in the new team don’t accept you?” After asking these words in a series, Anton sighed a little and said, “I’m sorry, I...was a little too anxious.”

The reason why he was anxious was because he calculated that the combined value of those "potential" signings in "Life in the Green" far exceeded Liverpool's current signing budget-that is to say, Liverpool was ready for Torres to leave the team. If Torres does not leave, Liverpool will immediately introduce someone else to replace Torres.

But in Anton's eyes, this would be the worst choice for both parties.

Torres left the team suddenly, whether he can maintain his form at Chelsea is still a matter of debate, but Liverpool signed up immediately after Torres left the team, and the opponent's transfer value will inevitably rise sharply, especially in the already short winter window: Liverpool is likely to Buy high-priced players who don't fit the team.

And it is precisely at this time, when Liverpool is at its lowest point, when it is about to bottom out and rebound, and countless people have hope for it.

If Torres's journey at the new club does not go as smoothly as expected, it will be a lose-lose.

Anton came to Liverpool so far because he didn't want Player F and Player K to face unfavorable results in the future.

Torres bowed his head, blond hair flowing down his cheeks.After waiting for a long time, he raised his head and said to Anton, "Anton, do you still remember the first practice match we played in 'Life in the Green'?"

Anton was taken aback, but he didn't expect Torres to mention this now. "of course I remember!"

At that time they were playing a practice match, Anton also brought his own "mosaic", and his shooting skills were taught by Torres.And the venue where they are located is the training ground of Atletico Madrid-Atletico Madrid?So it was for this?Anton suddenly understood something, looked at Torres, and asked sullenly: "So..."

Torres said: "Anfield is very good, I love it...but it is not home after all..."

It turns out that the gifted golden boy in front of him has always been fond of the same red and white arrow shirt as Sunderland.

"...When I was young, in order to chase dreams and championships, I left home and wandered outside..." Torres murmured in a low voice.

Torres made his debut at Atletico Madrid and was deeply loved by Atletico fans until he was taken away by Benitez and set foot on the land of England.

"No matter where I am, I will go back there one day." Torres seemed to be repeating his oath, "So whether it is red or blue, it is a stage in my life process, and I will work hard for it, but It will not be considered a home.”

Except for Anton, he probably couldn't say this to anyone.

For Torres, Anfield was fine, but it wasn't home after all.If Liverpool has been unable to win the championship, Torres will leave one day for his original intention-after all, his original intention to leave Atletico Madrid is to chase the championship.

"I see!" said Anton.

"Now I'm going to see Sir Dalglish." Anton got up and put on his coat.Torres was caught off guard by this farewell, and raised his head in astonishment: "Anton, you..."

"At nine o'clock tonight, let's meet at 'Green Life'. I will arrange a mock game to simulate the game after you go to Stamford Bridge." Anton raised the corner of his mouth as he said, "You are right, your The goal is to chase titles. So our question now simply boils down to: can Chelsea win titles when you go to Stamford Bridge?"

"This is what you need to consider. As for the others, you don't need to care."

This sentence immediately convinced Torres, and Anton immediately simplified the problem to this, and he was also convinced.

——But, does he really not need to care about anything else?

Anton had already put on his coat and said goodbye to Torres.At seven o'clock in the morning, before dawn, Anton left Torres' house through the warm light of street lamps.

He got back to Sunderland around twelve noon.The staff of Guangming College didn't know that Anton was absent from work for half a day, but he had actually gone for a trip to the northwest seaside.

Sunderland's coaching staff is leading the team to prepare for the weekend's game against Norwich, ignoring Ibrahimovic.Ibrahimovic, on the other hand, has a lot of fun in physical training. Although he is crazy and arrogant, he also has high demands on himself. Ten years of self-discipline makes Ibrahimovic's physical fitness not inferior to any younger and taller. center.

In the evening, Torres logged into "Green Life" according to the appointment.

Anton has been online for a long time.As a novice player, while he is doing his "Challenge of the Champions League", he also has the authority to configure individual games as a small entertainment during the long "challenge".He arranged for a game at Stamford Bridge, where Chelsea were at home, against none other than Liverpool led by Anton.

Anton's configuration in this game was very clever.He kept Chelsea's current lineup unchanged, plus Torres, the head coach was set to Ancelotti, and NPC Ancelotti came to line up.

At the same time, in order not to let Torres think that Anton's coaching level will affect the outcome of the game, Anton did not set himself as the head coach, but put himself in the forward position.Liverpool's head coach was set as NPC Dalglish by him.Anton recently noticed that player K is busy with real-life coaching affairs and has no time to log in to the simulator.

So he sets up such a single game that Player K may not know.

Anton only hoped that player K would not feel offended if he knew about it.

Torres took this as an assigned task and joined Anton's game.

He looked around: this was indeed Stamford Bridge, which he had visited several times before.Torres looked down again, and suddenly saw himself wearing a blue jersey.After being surprised, he finally felt how big the change was.

Although it was a game at Stamford Bridge, there were also many Liverpool fans gathered here, crowded together in the away team fan area.

Torres felt familiar when he saw it. Those red scarves, hats, jerseys... reminded him of Anfield immediately.

But at this moment, fire suddenly flashed in the stands, and then the security staff of the stadium rushed to the stands to stop them.Torres moved closer to see what was going on.

Unexpectedly, a red jersey was thrown from the stands.

Torres stopped immediately.

The jersey, which was set on fire and then thrown from the stands, floated in the air, revealing the number on the back - No. 9, Torres.

Torres stood there fixedly, unable to speak or move.

—felt something blocked his nasal passages, preventing him from breathing freely.

A question came from my ear: "Fernando, we love you so much! Why are you doing this to us?"

Although he had foreseen the fierce reaction of the fans, he still didn't expect it to be like this.

How much I loved at the beginning, how much I hate now.

Torres bit his lower lip tightly with his teeth, trying his best to resist the urge to cry: Not everyone can easily accept such a tragic "breakup", especially when he still has infinite nostalgia in his heart.

"...when we needed you most."

That's right, he did not walk properly at this time. He originally made an appointment with his teammates to revive Liverpool.But he left for another team.

Seeing that the kick-off whistle of the game was about to sound, Torres still stood on the court with his hips akimbo in thought.

Anton was wearing a Liverpool away jersey in white and black trousers with a red trim, and ran across half the pitch - he planned to observe Torres' situation.

Unexpectedly, Torres stood in front of the fans who burned his jersey for a long time, and finally clenched his fists and started running.It seems that Torres has accepted the reality of wearing blue, and is willing to work hard for it.

The author has something to say: Uh, as a KOP and a Tony girl, I have mixed feelings when I write this.When Torres left the team that year, he submitted his application for leaving the team on the last day of the winter window, so it was difficult for Liverpool fans to accept it emotionally.However, I liked Torres very much... Later I also liked cars very much, but I also liked cars because T9 went to cars.Abramovich has true love for T9, and later invited Benitez to activate T9.But after T9 left Liverpool, he was completely out of shape, and Liverpool used the money from selling T9 to buy a few parallel imports... a typical lose-lose.

Writing this paragraph is hoping to make up for the infinite regrets of the year.Thank you for your understanding.
