Chapter 756 Men Can't Say No

From the warm Madrid to the wet Manchester, Javi Alonso felt uncomfortable.

But he believed that slowly, he would get used to it.

It was like when he went south to Madrid from San Sebastian in northern Spain.

He always felt that he was a person with strong adaptability and felt a little at ease with the situation.

Manchester City has rented a luxury suite for all the newly joined foreign players at the Radisson Blu Edward Hotel, downstairs of head coach Gao Han's presidential suite, and they are also starting to look for houses.

He, Cristiano Ronaldo, David Silva, Peterceh, Kaka and Javi Martinez, all made an appointment and planned to find a house in the Golden Triangle area of ​​Cheshire and live near Gao Han.

This is not to say that they all have to flatter the head coach, but that area is really good.

Otherwise, how could Manchester United's Ferguson and the stars live there?

Paul Futre has arranged for special people to contact them. Javi Alonso's requirements are very simple, relaxed and comfortable. He likes to read books, so he must have a large study room, preferably a sun room.

Manchester is a rainy and humid weather, and the sunshine is a scarce resource. It is impossible to waste such a sunroom.

To be honest, he feels unfamiliar with Manchester and the Premier League, but he is not afraid at all.

Head coach Gao Han gave him unprecedented confidence, and at the same time, he was particularly excited to be able to compete with superstars such as Cristiano Ronaldo and Kaka.

Gao Han once told him that playing football at Manchester City will be more challenging than Atletico Madrid.

He was eager to accept such a challenge.

In his opinion, life is more meaningful if you keep accepting challenges.

Gao Han had just boiled boiling water and brewed tea. When he was immersed in the comfortable and comfortable atmosphere when the fragrance of tea filled the entire office, Javi Alonso stood outside the door and knocked on the door.

It was Gao Han who called him last night and asked him to arrive at the office early.

"Come in." Gao Han opened his eyes lazily and looked out the door with a smile.

As soon as Xavi Alonso entered the door, he immediately smelled the scent of tea and smiled.

"Boss, this habit has not changed for several years."

He still remembers that as early as Atletico Madrid, Gao Han was like now, and he had to have a pot of tea every morning. According to him, if he didn't drink this tea, he would be in a state of energy all day and feel uncomfortable all over.

"It has changed a long time ago." Gao Han smiled and pointed to the sofa next to him and asked him to sit down. "This taste is getting more and more confusing, and the more you sell tea, it is getting more and more expensive. If you continue like this, you will sooner or later go bankrupt."

Of course, Xavi Alonso knew that the boss was joking, "Boss, if you want to drink and go bankrupt, your stomach must be at least Pacific."

Gao Han was instantly amused.

He likes Xavi Alonso very much. He is diligent on the court and has a high execution ability. He appreciates the head coach's intentions very quickly and has a strong understanding of the game. What is even more rare is that he is also a literary young man outside the court. His favorite thing is to read books leisurely.

He doesn't smoke, drink, or gamble, and he has almost no bad habits.

For many players, the rules of professional players are restrictive, which makes them uncomfortable, but for Xavi Alonso, he is willing to accept it, and even he wishes that people all over the world will do this.

Gao Han looked at Jie Wei Alonso with a smile. The Spanish felt a little strange and uncomfortable.

"I asked you to come here early this time, because there is something I want to tell you."

"Boss, just say it if you have something to do." The Basqueeseness and loyalty were in the blood.

"The team has just reorganized and everything is in trouble. I can handle many things, and I can even make decisions for you, but there is one thing I have to ask for your opinion first."

Seeing Gao Han so serious, Harvey Alonso immediately became serious, "What's the matter?"

"Richard Dunn has been a captain at Manchester City for three years. He has always been the backbone of the defense, but it may be difficult to play in the new season, so we need a new captain."

After hearing this, Xavi Alonso suddenly realized, "I think that among the players left by Manchester City, both Kompany and Sturidge are still relatively young and immature, not enough, and Zabaleta and Bridge have relatively little qualifications, so they may not be suitable."

"We think so too." Gao Han nodded.

Kompani is a player he is very optimistic about. He has already been concerned about him when he coached Bayern Munich, but he always felt that this Belgian midfielder is not very suitable for playing as a midfielder and should retreat to play to his strengths and avoid his weaknesses.

The Belgian boy became famous, with the spirit of a young man and was very energetic, but unfortunately he was too young to suppress the scene.

"Kaka can suppress the scene, but others are so good that they don't like to compete with others, so they may not be suitable for being the captain."

"It's right." Gao Han smiled.

Kaka has a good personality and is kind to others. This is his advantage, but as a team captain, it is not bad to be kind to others, but the key is that the captain often has to do something that offends people, which Kaka doesn't do.

Moreover, at the critical moment, Kaka lacks a domineering spirit and is difficult to drive his teammates.

"I think Cristiano will be a very good candidate," suggested Javi Alonso.

As a World Footballer, Cristiano Ronaldo has enough qualifications and cards. Although he is a newcomer, he can definitely keep the scenes and control the locker room. I believe that if he is chosen, all other players will be convinced.

But the key to the problem is that Gao Han is worried about Cristiano Ronaldo.

He brought the Portuguese with him, and Gao Han asked himself that he would know him better than any head coach.

There is no doubt that he is domineering, courageous, and has a strong desire to win. These qualities are fully reflected in him. Moreover, he is very good at dating teammates, is outgoing, and has a very self-disciplined lifestyle.

It can be said that he will be a very outstanding captain.

But his personality is easy to become impatient, too greedy, and somewhat individualistic. If he is just the number one superstar in the team, it doesn't matter. The captain can still check and balance him, but if he becomes the captain, then who can balance him?

So, Gao Han believes that Cristiano Ronaldo will be a very outstanding captain, but it is certainly not now, because he is not mature enough.

Gao Han said no, and Javi Alonso knew that he was not right and smiled bitterly.

"Boss, just give me a few candidates."

It is difficult to deal with when choosing a captain, especially since the player's perspective is different from the head coach's perspective, it is hard to say.

Gao Han waited for his words and laughed, "I only have one candidate."

"Only one?" Jie Wei Alonso was a little surprised, especially when he saw Gao Han staring at him with a smile, as if Big Big Wolf was staring at Pleasant Goat. An ominous premonition surged in his heart, pointing at Gao Han, "You"

"Yes, it's you."

"No." Jievi Alonso opposed without thinking, "I can't."

"Why not?"

"I'm not suitable to be a captain."

"How can I know if it's not suitable?"

"I know I can't do it without trying."

"You can't say that you are a man."

Xavi Alonso was directly forced into a corner. He knew very well that the captain's life seemed to be brilliant, but in fact the responsibility was heavy and there were a lot of trouble. Isn't this causing trouble for himself?

"Boss, to be honest, how do you think I can be the captain?" the Spaniard asked with a wry smile.

He asked himself that he had never flattered the boss, nor did he express his thoughts on being a captain. Why did the boss think he could do it?

After hearing this, Gao Han smiled and nodded, "Yes, many of them are very surprised by my choice. Even Sergio Garcia joked, did I take your money?"

Xavi Alonso smiled bitterly, and he had absolutely no bribes.

"There are several main reasons why I chose this."

"First, you are the team's back-end organizer. In the current environment of the team, you are the best able to understand and appreciate my tactical intentions, and this is what I need the team captain to do and be the team's head coach on the court."

Xavi Alonso nodded, "But Modric can do it too."

"That's right." Gao Han nodded. Modric is indeed OK. "But the second point is that I need someone who can communicate and interact well with the superstars in the team, and can check and balance them at critical moments and make them obey. This is something Modric can't do."

Javi Alonso thought about it and had to nod his head regretfully.

With Gao Han's second point, there are only a handful of players in Manchester City who can do it.

Not to mention other players, just the two superstars Cristiano Ronaldo and Kaka are just uncomfortable. Many players in the team are not even on an equal footing, let alone checking and balancing them.

If you can balance them, both of Xavi Alonso and Peter Cech are fine. The reason is very simple. They were both brought out by Gao Han from Atletico Madrid. This kind of friendship established by the time they met in the last days is often particularly deep.

Moreover, in Atletico Madrid, both of them had higher qualifications than Cristiano Ronaldo and Kaka, but they benefited from the frontcourt offensive players, so they are now even more famous.

Among the two, if they meet the first and second conditions, Xavi Alonso is the best candidate.

"But boss, I'm not suitable for my personality." The Spanish immediately complained.

He really doesn't want to be this captain, it's too much trouble.

"Your personality?" Gao Han nodded, "After listening to my first two requests, many people also think that your personality is too gentle and peaceful and not suitable to be a captain, but I think all of them have been deceived by you."

Xavi Alonso almost cried, who did I lied to me?

"In your blood, there is a sense of unyielding power. You seem weak on the outside, but in reality you are very strong. You seem lazy, but at critical moments you are more reliable than anyone else. Your sense of responsibility and courage to take responsibility are enough to make you competent for this captain."

After hearing this, Xavi Alonso had some idea of ​​why, but suddenly he felt the urge to cry.

He found that Gao Han knew him so well, and he might even know him better than anyone else, or even himself.

Gao Han looked at the expression of Javi Alonso and knew that he had touched his mind. He was a tough guy who was soft on the outside and hard on the inside.

"Believe me, Harvey, this captain is yours."

Having said this, Javi Alonso knew that he was the captain.

Since you can't push it off, then do it!

His personality is that he either doesn’t do it or does it to the best he wants to do it, so he immediately started talking to Gao Han about some things that need to be paid attention to when being a captain.

Until Sergio Garcia suddenly knocked on Gao Han’s office door, rushed in anxiously, and handed Gao Han a piece of material in sweat.
