Now that Mark relaxed, he was preparing for the next game against Alkmaar.

However, before this, Mark's fiancée Colos needed to say goodbye to Mark for the time being. This is because Colos now has to participate in the next catwalk work, and her work at this stage will make her very busy, so Colos now has no way to come back to accompany Mark often.[]

"Remember, don't be flirting with other women, don't take in any little sisters anymore," Colos said as he instructed Mark, who was now at the airport.

"Silly, you are the one I love the most. Are you worried about me?" Mark hugged Colos in his arms and said, "Come on, let me kiss one to show my loyalty." After that, Mark and Colos touched their lips.

The current lingering shots of the two people were also keenly captured by the paparazzi. In fact, the current paparazzi is also a very boring thing to take photos of Mark like this, because Mark and his fiancée can kiss anytime and anywhere, and there is no reason for this.

Colos is still a little reluctant to leave Mark's arms, but there is not much time left at the ticket gate now, so Colos has to leave.

"I'm really leaving this time, although I'm very reluctant to leave, let me hug you again in the end," Colos said to Mark with some reluctance.

Mark now gave Colos a very friendly hug, and Mark is also very reluctant to leave now. After all, both sides feel very happy when they are together, so it is because of this reason that the two of them are separated now, which is also a very difficult thing for both of them.

But this is the reality, because now both people have their own goals, and now both parties cannot change their attitudes and ideas about their careers just because of each other.

Of course, there is no need to say more about Mark. Colos is now a very independent woman. Although he has the appearance of a classical beauty, he has the strong and independent heart of modern women. Mark also admires Colos very much, a woman who is beautiful and intelligent.

So it would be difficult to let Colos give up the career she likes now. Both of them have such persistence, which is naturally to make them more separate now.

"It is also what I hope you can realize your dream." Mark now walked out of the airport and drove away the plane and said to himself. In fact, Mark supported Koros at this point.

Atletico Madrid will soon go to the Netherlands. This is also the first time that Mark has returned to the Netherlands as a challenger. Fortunately, the opponent Mark faces this time is not his old club Ajax Club, otherwise I wouldn't know how Mark would feel.

Atletico Madrid will face the second game in the first round of the League Cup, with its opponent Alkmaar, and Atletico Madrid now has a good advantage, because in the first two-pair match, Atletico Madrid has a goal lead, so as long as Atletico Madrid wins a draw, it will naturally win the game.

However, such a leading score has had a serious impact on the current Atletico Madrid team's tactical style. Ferlando in this game requires the current Atletico Madrid players to focus on defense, not concede balls, and use defense to win the next game.

However, there are still many people who have opinions on this tactical style, including Salva. Because Salva's technical characteristics are a center player, Salva, which is not very fast, is not very suitable for defensive counterattack tactics in this game.

But now Ferlando seems to have gained confidence after successfully winning the game in the last game, so in the lineup of this game, Ferlando has completely put the current Atletico Madrid golden boy Torres on the bench.

Torres is indeed very tired now. If there is a normal rotation, there is no problem. However, Torres seemed to only play halftime in the last game, and his physical condition should be very good. So, according to normal terms, Torres should not be allowed to serve as a substitute.

Moreover, according to the tactics of the current team, Torres is indeed better than Salva's current, because Torres' speed is still faster.

"It seems that things are just beginning now." Mark thought in his heart that Mark knew that the struggle between rights now seemed to have begun, but Mark now feels that even the struggle for power should not affect the performance of the teams in the game.

"Coach, why don't you go to Fernando?" Mark asked directly now. Mark is also anxious now, so Mark can't help it. When the game starts one day, Mark now questioned head coach Ferrando loudly.

"Mark, what are you doing? Who are you sending to the field is what I want to do. It has nothing to do with you." Ferrando didn't seem to have expected that Mark would have such a surprising performance now.

Because Mark has no background as a new player, he still performs like this now, just like a player who has just joined the team.

As a normal person, even if he is strong in the team before, he needs to adapt to another team. Mark seems to have no adaptation process now and express his own point of view.

This is probably not the first time Mark has performed like this, but Mark's performance in the previous few times was not very strong, so head coach Ferlando did not pay much attention to it.

Mark feels that the atmosphere of Atletico Madrid is that he doesn't want to see it anymore, because the opposition between the players and the head coach has now formed three small groups.

This one supports Torres, the other supports Ferlando, and the other is a player who does not support anyone but does not object. He is a player who plays soybeans.

Mark is the third type of such player, but after saying such words from Mark, he is probably now listed as Torres' partner by head coach Ferlando.

In fact, Mark said this before because of her love for the team, and there was no unnecessary matter or thought. Moreover, some of the Atletico Madrid players also had some opinions on the coach's current arrangement, but they still dare not drink the coach and discuss tactics.

"Mark, stop talking." Van der Fate pulled Mark next to Mark for a moment. Van der Fate doesn't want the head coach to think of Mark as a faction. If he becomes a victim of the current power struggle for no reason, Mark will be very unfair.

"Coach, our forwards should be Fernando, who is faster in this game, not Salva. Although Salva also has a strong goal efficiency, Fernando is more suitable for defensive counterattacking. Mark ignored Van der Fate's words now. Mark thought that since he had said it, just say it directly now. Mark did not take full care of Ferlando's face and continued: "Coach, I feel that you have changed recently. I can't see the easy-going head coach in the past. What I see now is a dictator, but if your dictator can help the team win in other games, it will naturally have nothing to do, but the question is, can such tactics help the team win? Don't wait until we lose to remember and regret it."

Mark has poured out all the words now. Mark has been holding them in for several days, but Mark is still a bit heavy now.

Mark is not worried about the current head coach Ferlando's current ideas, mainly because Mark has not given face to coach Ferlando now, it depends on how Ferlando is going to do it.

Ferlando was also very embarrassed. Ferlando originally thought that Mark was a player he could rely on, and Ferlando wanted to train Mark into his confidant.

But it is obvious that Mark does not intend to become a confidant player of Ferlando. The reason why Mark is so dedicated on the court is entirely because of Mark's current love for football and all other special reasons.

It was obvious that Ferlando misunderstood Mark's current position. He now directly showed his domineeringness and said five words to Mark: "You are a substitute in this game!!"

Mark was stunned when he heard Ferlando's words, but soon Mark reacted. Mark now knew that Ferlando still had some connections in the team's locker room.

So Mark has not refuted Ferlando now, because Mark knows that if he leaves him on the court now, Atletico Madrid will really not be able to play.

You should know that Mark is the most important part of Atletico Madrid's defensive position now. A main scorer is not on the court, and a main player is not on the court. The game has not yet begun. It seems that Atletico Madrid's innate advantage has been lost.

Atletico Madrid players have lost their support all of a sudden. It’s okay to be offensive, because the tactics of this game are mainly defense-oriented, so these players have no requirements for offense.

But from the current defense, Mark is the real core player of defense on the court, both as a midfielder and as a scavenger, and is the bodyguard of the current players. Therefore, when Mark cannot appear in the starting lineup, these defensive players are naturally worried.

Because Mark has already won the dependence of Atletico Madrid's defensive players with his performance on the court, Ferlando has suddenly pressed Mark on the bench, and many players still have some ideas in their minds.

However, although these players have various ideas in their minds, they all hid this matter in their hearts, and the players don’t want to say it. These professional players are still more afraid of Ferlando now, and they don’t want to be the next Mark now.

"Mark, I really didn't expect you to support me with such a move. To be honest, what you did made me feel very embarrassed." Torres found Mark after the training and said.

"Nothing Fernando, I just said what I think I should say. This does not mean that I have any opinion on the head coach. I just think the coach should send you to the court." Mark did not blindly move towards Torres, and Mark also told Torres his own thoughts.

"Yes, we all hope that the team can win the game. If Atletico Madrid can win the league championship this season, I will have no complaints if I keep serving as a substitute." Torres also expressed his full love for Atletico Madrid, but after a change of tone, he said: "But the team's offensive ability now does not seem to be very good. The last game against Villarreal seemed to have won the game with your outstanding performance."

"I believe we all have a chance. As long as we are fully prepared during training, we should be able to help the team win the game after we play." Mark also comforted Torres.

Mark still saw Atletico Madrid's chairman Cerezo also appeared on the training ground, so Cerezo naturally came to boost the morale of the current team.

Because Atletico Madrid attaches great importance to this game now, they came to Alkmaar two days in advance to adapt to the venue in advance.

Because if Atletico Madrid can at least draw with its opponent in this game, it can enter the group stage of the League Cup, which is a good economic addition to Atletico Madrid, which is now a bit financially tight.

Moreover, participating in the League Cup can also enhance Atletico Madrid's hopes. Now Atletico Madrid's chairman Cerrezo also hopes to lead Atletico Madrid to restore its previous glory.

His idea is to at least keep Atletico Madrid's position in the top six. Of course, in the future, he naturally hopes that Atletico Madrid can participate in the Champions League every year.

As long as Atletico Madrid can enter the group stage, it will be successful, because participating in the group stages of the Champions League and the League Cup is suitable for getting a lot of dividends for the broadcast rights and the winning prizes for the game.

Of course, the attractiveness of the League Cup is naturally no match for the current Champions League. As long as Atletico Madrid can make a breakthrough in performance, the current chairman Cerrezo will naturally support Ferlando.

Cerezo now personally accompanied the team to the small city of Alkmaar in the Netherlands to cheer for the team, which also reflects Cerezo's extreme attention to this game.

Because this game means whether Atletico Madrid can continue to stay in the important game of the League Cup, he, as the current chairman of Atletico Madrid, naturally cannot miss such an opportunity.

After learning that Mark and Torres of this game will be on the bench, it is obvious that he is not very happy, but the game is about to start one day now, and he has no choice about the roster of the game. After all, Ferlando is the head coach, and the lineup of Atletico Madrid's Atletico team will still be decided by Ferlando. As the chairman, he only has the right to choose a head coach. Cereso still knows this now.

The current team returned to the hotel after the day of training. Mark and Van der Fate are now arranged in the same room. Because Mark and Van der Fate are the best relationship, Van der Fate and Mark are now resting in the same room.

Van der Fate's injury has also recovered a lot now. Although Van der Fate has been able to do some simple touch training, his injury has not fully recovered.

Van der Fate was also placed on the bench lineup, but his chances of playing should not be very high, so basically Van der Fate came to Alkmaar to play soy sauce in this game.

"Mark, you were really impulsive just now. Now you offended the head coach. I think your position in the team will be greatly impacted," Van der Fate said to Mark now: "Didn't we all agreed at home that we would not interfere in the current locker room?"

"I've agreed, but I really couldn't help it just now. I've really endured some things for a long time. If I didn't let me say them, I would be crazy." Mark said without regret at all now.

"It seems that you have this temper, but it's okay to say it anyway. I believe you will definitely get another chance to play in the next game. I feel this way," Van der Fate said comfortingly to Mark.

"I think it's the same. After all, the head coach shouldn't want the team to lose. If the team's performance is not good, it should not be of any benefit to him." Mark now understands the current form very clearly.

"I think we should go to bed early. The game should start soon. Although we are not the starter tomorrow, the team will still need us. Now we need to maintain a good condition," Mark said to Van der Fate now.

After Van der Fati nodded, the two of them turned off the lights and went back to their beds for rest, and at the same time they were also to regain their energy for tomorrow's game.
