Chapter 109 Who is he?

"Florence is a good opponent, but Chelsea's overall strength is obviously stronger. We will let them understand this at Stamford Bridge at home, Degan? I know that my ex once wanted to get him very much, but I don't think so. People say that he is the world's first striker, but in my opinion, the world's first striker is already in our lineup! He is Didier. Drogba!"

It was Chelsea's current coach, Israeli Grant, who said this.

Today's Chelsea's most impressive one is the local tycoon and the other is the Magic Bird, but because of the conflict with club president Abramovich, Mourinho left Stamford Bridge at the beginning of the season, and his successor is Grant.

In his previous life, when Digan learned that Mourinho had left Chelsea, he was also very curious about what kind of master the Russian oligarch would invite to replace the Magic Bird.

But finally when Grant announced his appointment, Degan and most of the fans in the world asked: Who is this man?

Later, after checking a lot of information, Degan knew Grant's people. Speaking of which, Grant's coaching resume is still somewhat similar to Mourinho's, but it is definitely not brilliant. He once coached Israel's Petachi. Tickwa Maccabi Club, Tel Aviv Maccabi Club and Haifa Maccabi Club, then coached the Israeli national team in 2002. After leaving Israel, he served as technical director at Portsmouth Club until he joined Chelsea.

Mourinho had an unsuccessful career, but Grant had no experience of playing on the court at all. In 1974, at the age of 19, Grant coached the Petah youth team to win the Israeli Youth League, and was exceptionally promoted to the head coach of the adult team and rewritten The record of the head coach of the youngest adult team in Sellie.

In the 1990/1991 season, he led the team to win the second place in the league, thus getting the opportunity to coach Maccabi Tel Aviv.

In Tel Aviv, Grant led the team to win the Israeli League by 13 points in his first season.

In 2000, he took over the position of head coach of Tel Aviv's "dead enemy" Maccabi Haifa. In two years, he won two league championships and won the 2002 Toto Cup. After he left for the head coach of the national team, Maccabi Haifa still became the first Israeli team to enter the group stage of the UEFA Champions League in the 2002/2003 season.

In 2002, 46-year-old Grant was promoted to the head coach of the Israeli national team. He became the youngest head coach in the country's history and the most successful head coach, leading a young and inexperienced Israeli team to remain unbeaten in the 2006 World Cup qualifiers, only succumbing to France and Switzerland. After the taxi, he bid farewell to the World Cup in Germany.

In June 2006, Grant began to travel abroad and became the head of the football department of Portsmouth. On the South Coast, he and head coach Harry. Redkup fought side by side and had a successful season.

In July 2007, Grant came to Stamford Bridge and served as the head of the football department until he appointed the head coach in September 2007.

In his days as Chelsea's head coach, Grant led the Blues from the bottom to the second place in the league, from taking over the 0:2 loss to Manchester United in the first game to 2:1 at home to defeat Manchester United and chase Manchester United, still retains the hope of competing for the league championship.

However, Degan knew that Grant did not sit in the Chelsea coach's position for too long. In the league, although he finally failed to catch up and ranked second behind Manchester United, in the Champions League, Grant historically led the Blues to the final, just Lost in the final penalty shootout.

As a firefighter, Grant undoubtedly completed his mission perfectly, just because he had a mythical predecessor: Jose. Mourinho, and a harsh boss: Abramovic, seemed so helpless that he could not escape the fate of failing to win the championship.

Grant met Abu thanks to the famous and somewhat "notorious" football agent Pini. Zahavi, the acquaintance between the Israelis and Abu is thanks to Zahavi's introduction. The Russian millionaire's first conversation with Grant was impressed by his rich football theory, so people saw this Israeli with deep eyes in the Chelsea coach's bench, and he also got the opportunity to further explain his ideals to his boss.

Later, when Mourinho's authority at Stamford Bridge expanded unbrid and threatened Abu's right to speak, Grant got the opportunity to replace him.

Compared with Mourinho, who is full of personality and has a brilliant coaching experience, Grant, who is particularly quiet, is obviously a nobody. Whether it is a fan or the media, he did not recognize him at the beginning.

Even the players reject this Israeli very much. During his coaching at Chelsea, Mourinho established great friendship with many players and led the team to win many championship trophies.

When Chelsea unexpectedly announced the dismissal of Mourinho, the news shocked all the players, and disappointment + despair + frustration spread rapidly within the Chelsea team.

Captain Terry learned that the news was at midnight, and then he called Drogba and Lampard. On the phone, Terry said to two best friends and teammates, "We must not let this happen."

However, later, the situation failed to follow the direction expected by Terry and others, and Mourinho was insisted on being fired by Abu.

When they saw Mourinho really leave, many Blues players couldn't suppress their sadness. Terry said in an interview: "Jose told us that we would miss a good era. We hugged one by one. I still remember that Drogba was the one who was the most affected. He was like a child at that time. I cried as much as my son.

Dropba also said disappointedly: "We all noticed that Mourinho will leave here. It's too unreal. It seems that it's not true. It's like a movie. Usually we see him every day, and his departure makes us unprepared, which is so shocking.

Portuguese international Paul who was brought to Chelsea by Mourinho from Porto. Ferreira lamented: "Farewell is always complicated, but we really didn't expect it to be so difficult. He came to the locker room and everyone gathered together. He told us that he had to go."

Many people shed sad tears because of Mourinho's departure, and Lampard was one of them. The magic lamp said: "I always imagine in my mind that if everything is normal, Mourinho will usually coach at Chelsea for ten years. Being fired is really beyond my expectation. His departure makes everyone Emotionally unacceptable, this is a friend, but it has left us.

The relationship behind the players and the Magic Bird made Grant's start at Chelsea very difficult and unrecognized, which seemed to be accompanied by his initial experience at Stamford Bridge.

But only half a year later, people gradually accepted him, because people found that the old Israeli man was not as old-fashioned as he looked. He was also humorous and joking.

Chelsea also gradually came out of the turmoil and began to improve steadily. Grant wiped the mark left by his predecessor on the head coach's seat of Stamford Bridge little by little with his own practical actions. Although he has not yet labeled himself, he knows the truth that "if you want to hurry", at least he has attracted people's attention and aroused everyone's appetite.

With the improvement of the team's record, Grant has also begun to have a sense of existence in front of people. Although he does not intend to change the name of the protagonist of each script to himself like Magic Bird, at least he will stand up when people pay attention to him.

Only this time, Mr. Grant seems to have picked the wrong opponent.

Although Degan doesn't care about the reputation of the world's number one striker, his pride will never allow anyone to ignore his existence.

"Who said that? Grant? Who is that? I'm sorry I don't know him! Chelsea's head coach! It's a pity that I don't pay attention to other leagues. I always thought Chelsea's head coach was Jose. Where's Mourinho?"

Degan was like talking to himself, which made the reporters present almost laugh and have stomach cramps. Of course, it is impossible for Degan not to know that Mourinho left Stamford Bridge at the beginning of the season. The reason why he said so was that he obviously didn't pay attention to Grant at all.

"Mr. Grant, I don't know why he thinks he is qualified to evaluate me! But since he said it, I'm willing to fight back appropriately to help you bastards stimulate sales!"

The reporters all pricked up their ears. Although they were scolded as "bastards" by Degan, when they heard that Degan wanted to broadcast the news, they were like drinking iced soda in the dog days. They couldn't wait for Digan to scold them more fiercely. It was better to greet all their ancestors for 18 generations.

Digan cleared his throat and pretended to be deep and said, "In my life, there are three kinds of people who often appear. Those who value me, those who despise me and those who despise me. For those who value me, I should thank them. It is their attention that helps me establish confidence, strengthen my faith, and let me move forward on the right path. When I am proud, a timely compliment can add a hundred times of enthusiasm. When I am frustrated, a sincere encouragement will make me cheer me up and ignite. **, strive to move forward. When I am impetuous, a timely advice will give me a strong shock. That impetuous heart will calm down. I sincerely thank them, those who value me very much.

The reporters are quiet. Is this still the arrogant Degan?

Hey!

Brother, you are the ultimate boss in the upgrade game, okay? Don't pretend to be deep!

This atmosphere doesn't match your role at all.

Digan ignored the thrilled reporter and continued: "I also want to thank the people who despise me. They let me know all about myself and let me know that I still have shortcomings and unsatisfactory things. I am not perfect. They criticize and ridicule me. I abandoned me, whether it was good or malicious, beating me again and again like a whip, urging me to redouble my efforts and move forward desperately. Although it would be painful, every spur accelerated my progress. No matter what they do to me, I will still sincerely thank them with a normal heart, those Those who despise me."

The faces of reporters began to be distorted, and he. Mom, where are you going?

What a mess.

We want to listen to you spray people, okay!

Please update!

Upstairs!

Degan's heart has smiled. He found that this feeling of flirting with others is really good: "I still thank those who despise me. They neither slander me nor praise me. They ignore my existence, but give me a free space to let me develop. If I don't want to be lonely and want to attract their attention, then I have to achieve superhuman results. I know that I am not a genius, but a mortal in the world. If you want to achieve Superman's achievements, you have to pay superhuman efforts. What they give me is invisible pressure, which will turn into motivation and motivate me to move forward. I sincerely thank those who despise me.

The reporters were about to cry, and all of them were wailing in their hearts: Digan! Don't scare us, okay? Are you a madman, not a gentleman, let alone pretend to be a literary man?

Digan coughed again and made a summary of this conversation enough for the reporters: "I thank everyone around me, because everyone is pushing me to move forward and realize my dream. Yes, Coach Grant! I also want to sincerely thank him, but I hope you can bring him something.

The reporters nodded. They didn't want to continue to be stimulated.

Digan's face suddenly turned, pointed to the camera in the hands of those reporters and shouted, "What the hell are you? Just because you dare to look down on me. Your noble team is not qualified to polish my shoes. Fuck your mother! If you are not convinced, come to the competition and see if I can turn you over, you son of a bitch! I will show you how powerful I am, but I just hope that your small body and fragile heart can bear it at that time!"

Ga!?

What's the situation? Just now, he was a literary man. Why did he suddenly swear? What did Degan say just now? The reporters looked at each other in con's face, and no one heard it clearly.

What should I do?

Seek to reproduce the original scene.

Degan looked at the reporters with contempt: "Let Grant kick your heads! Get out of here as soon as possible!"
