289 CHAPTER 319 - New Family (2)

Pep Guardiola has been relaxing since being hard in Barcelona.

This did not mean that it was a break.

He constantly watched soccer games, devised new tactics, and ran simulations in his head as if he were a manager.

It was a kind of study.

Although he formally declared his retirement, he has always lived with football.

He was a natural footballer who couldn't help playing soccer.

I was ready to return to the football world at any time.

Of course, if I returned, I would only go to the league without Woo Young.

It was a requirement, not a choice, as a director.

Guardiola's Woo Ho-young was a tactic that didn't work.

Even if the tactics were 30 minutes was everything.

After that, he finds his own tactics, finds a gap, and constrains his opponent.

A player who can't do anything.

Opposing such a player in the same league was a suicide.

No, even on the same continent was burdensome.

As long as he was in Europe, I thought winning the European Champions League would be hard to see.

I thought it was easier to go to South or Asia.

Moreover, as the Middle East and China leagues have developed in recent years, there has also been an interest there.

Or I wanted to be the national director easily.

I didn't want to go through the horrible experience I had in Barcelona anymore.

That experience was enough once in life.

Guardiola, in particular, was a very strong man.

Not to mention pride, apart from pride there was no body.

But there was one indelible tag on him.

'Woo Young's Victory Maker'.

If you meet Woo Ho-young, you were defeated for being defeated.

In a word, the nightmare itself.

That's why I was surprised by the random call.

I didn't know that I would call him directly.

-Long time no see. Bishop.

"I think it's the first time we're talking about it."

It's a terrible evil.

I have been contacted by the club owners and presidents of various clubs, but this is the first time that a player has been contacted.

Woo Ho-young was the first protagonist, even though he had received a call from Pujol or Xabi.

What's even more surprising was Woo Woo-young's word.

-I want to be with you this season.

Asked to come to Man City as manager.

Guardiola came to mind about this time last year.

When I left Barcelona, ​​I received a call from a man.

[I will give you an offer you can't refuse.]

He was President Manchester City Caldun Almubarak.

Since then, AC Milan and Bayern Munich have also sent a love call to Guardiola, promising to sign Woo Ho-young.

At best, he could only lift the trophy of the King Cup.

But Guardiola never went anywhere.

It was unthinkable that Woo Ho-young, who was winning in Real Madrid at that time, would go to another club.

I thought it was impossible.

But in reality, Woo-young moved to Manchester City, where the football world shook.

Manchester City had the confidence to bring Woo-young from then on.

And now.

They once again wanted Guardiola.

Only this time, the player, not the chairman, sent a love call.

I felt strange.

It's like a manager calling a favorite player and making a love call.

Of course, the love call received by such a player was a great honor in itself.

Guardiola, however, was not a snob to accept.

I wanted to play with Woo Ho Young, but it took too much to decide right away.

Guardiola finished the conversation shortly.

"I need time to think."

And I did not forget this.

"Thank you for calling."

Guardiola struggled from the moment he hung up until he went to bed.

The time is early July.

The time to think was not long.

A few days later, an official press conference was held at the Etihad Stadium Media Zone.

The protagonist was Roberto Mancini, whose contract expired today.

He said with a relaxed face, as if laying down everything.

"I enjoyed it for a while."

Short, thick words.

It was a shame to leave the team at this point, but I was forced to resign.

Nevertheless, I achieved a great achievement called Mini Travel.

Mancini expressed his heartily.

"I honestly seem to have spent all my luck."

Mancini's eyes returned to the corner.

Manchester City players attended the press conference.

In other words, the ball was turned to them.

I knew that my contribution was not great.

Some of them were mixed, but it was a very meaningful day.

[Excellent view of players (A + 3)]

Talented by satisfying the condition of "Sending last season with Robert Mancini."

Even if it wasn't, it meant a lot to join Manchini's last minute.

But it's been a director who has been sweating together for six months.

After the press conference, Manchini and farewell were alone.

"Thank you for that."

Manchini was the only thing to say.

Ho-young also responded shortly.

"thanked."

The person leaving is without regret.

And an empty mind is left empty for those who come.

Ho-young became accustomed to the breakup and spent her last time with Manchini.

As such, the old generation of Manchester City ended.

[Romanto Mancini, Manchester City expired]

[The bitter exit of the coach who led the trek in Manchester City ...

[Topic Mourinho opened his mouth for Manchester City. Regarding the rumor recently discussed, "Manchester City wants me to go," he suggested high possibility. "I already have a successful career at EPL. It will be very important for them to win the league and the Champions League, "he said.

Experience winning leagues and Champions League.

That was to say about Guardiola, who was also a candidate.

And Guardiola, who has been with Mourinho for many years, could not notice it.

'The idea of ​​going to Manchester City looks like a chimney.'

It was the same with Guardio.

Instinct as a director.

Anyone who wanted to go to a strong team was welcome.

This was especially true for teams with Woo Ho Young.

Moreover, how long have you been smelling a trophy?

The league or Champions League trophy was Guardiola who had never played.

Guardiola was better than Mourinho.

but.

'The important thing is the process.'

The result was also a result, but if it wasn't double or treble, it didn't make sense if I didn't play the football I wanted to pursue.

If the process is good, the results will follow.

That was Guardiola's soccer field.

And it is very strict and made perfect.

It was an area that no one could invade.

However, with Woo Ho Young, there was a concern that his soccer philosophy would be shaken.

His presence was so great.

If it was a worry it was.

It was a burden for Woo Woo-young to be eaten before he was able to perform the directorship.

By the way.

Follow me.

His hand was already holding the phone.

My legs trembled, touched my head and opened my mouth.

"Is it possible to call?"

-of course.

The recipient was Woo Young.

"I want to be honest with you why you chose me. Maybe you've been familiar with Scolari. As people say, am I not just an unproven geek? "

That was correct.

So I was curious about Ho Young's thoughts.

Why did you choose yourself?

At first, he thought that Woo-young would control himself with his power.

By the way.

-Because I want to share your football. And I want to learn

Hoeyoung's answer was unexpected.

-I think you can play attractive football with your coach. Now no one knows, but someday the world will know. I want to join it too. We're building innovation together.

Someone who knows his true value.

Guardiola smiled happily.

It was a long time since I heard.

And it made Guardiola's heart leap.

"I see. I'll call you back soon. "

The next caller was his agent.

He took out the free-and-go argument.

"I'll leave for Manchester and get ready."

Crisis and opportunity.

But chance to come once in life.

I could not give it up.

And if you turn that crisis into opportunity, you can achieve things that no one in the world can achieve.

Guardiola arrived in Manchester two days later.

The contract was held in full swing, and a press conference was held on the same day.

While many reporters were present, the dressed up Guardiola slowly opened his mouth.

"It took about a year to get back here."

Guardiola's nose was frowned at the moment he spit out his first words.

It was thrilling to be able to stand here again.

"Khmm."

He calmed his heart and calmed down.

"I have a lot of labels right now."

Unsuccessful director.

He has never won a league with Ronaldinho, Messi and Zlatan.

Rain's director who lost everything to Woo-young.

Since retirement, those stigmas have been bothering him constantly.

And this time, when he declared his return to Manchester City, there were further accusations of neglect and ridicule.

"The manager who wasn't able to score his own league was criticized for what he could do in another league. There are a lot of journalists who think that way. Of course I also feel it. "

It made sense.

England was a stage he didn't like.

Hence, they were prepared to be criticized until the result was shown.

Not surprisingly, after a while aggressive questions began to come in.

"As I said in my previous interviews, you have said that you really hate the weather in the UK."

"It's true. That doesn't mean I don't like football in England. "

"Would you honestly tell me why you chose Manchester City? It has been courted by many clubs, including Bayern Munich and AC Milan, but they have all refused. Did you come back because of Woo Young? There is a criticism that he came to build his career as a manager. "

This is to drive Guardiola into a snob manager who only reveals his career.

But he did not deny.

"Yes."

"···!"

Guardiola wasn't as talkative as he was at the press conference, but today he spit out a horse that wants to have a motor in his mouth.

"Woo Woo Young wanted me. I think that being able to be chosen by such a player is a tremendous ability on its own. "

Guardiola was deeply aware of the greatness of Woo Ho Young.

Even though I bowed down to thank you, I knew it was a hat.

"And it's not just the trophies that I'm looking for. I will complete the football I dreamed of here, and at the same time, it will leave a big stroke in the history of football. Trophies are just one of the accomplishments that come with that process. "

It was an incredible confidence that he could not believe was a hard coach in Barcelona.

"Leave it a try."

Declaration of war.

Then a reporter asked with anxious pitch.

"I remember there was a conflict with Zlatan when I was in Barcelona. Don't you worry about that? Manchester City didn't stop the noise when he was a coach. "

"I know. But it's not just the manager that leads the team. It's part of the argument. "

"Well, is there any player you thought was the captain?"

To that question, Guardiola immediately said, without worrying.

"Woo Ho Young. Today, Manchester City's Club captain will be in charge of him. And we will make it together. "

"What do you mean?"

With all the attention of the intestines concentrated, Guardiola spoke in a tone.

"Our time."

It was a moment of a new era in Manchester City.
