149 Showdown

After a few days of training, Mark was finally able to watch a game between Spain and Belgium, because the Spanish team put their home court at Calderon Stadium.

This is also because of the request of the Spanish coach Aragones, who was a meritorious coach of Atletico Madrid for many years, and he can be said to be half an Atletico Madrid person.[]

If it weren't for Aragones who coached the Spanish national team, the coach of Atletico Madrid this season might not be Ferrando, which would have made Aragones.

Although Aragones had a very unhappy quarrel with former chairman Hil, he was still very affectionate about Atletico Madrid and Calderon Stadium.

Moreover, there is a reason why Aragones proposed to use Calderon as Spain's home court, that is, to hit the morale of Real Madrid players.

Aragonese has no good impression of Real Madrid players. This stubborn old man has always believed that the reason why the Spanish team cannot achieve good results in international competitions is because the boss of the Real Madrid team cannot unite other players, and Raul is naturally a representative of Real Madrid.

So after Aragonese took office, he directly put Raul on the bench, and he also wanted to use such a move to make the Spanish team more cohesive.

And another highlight of this game is the cloning of the Spanish team in Barcelona mode, which is also a bold attempt by Aragones.

That is to replace a defensive midfielder player in the Spanish team's double-back midfielder formation. Previously, the Spanish team's double-back midfielder formations were players with strong defensive capabilities such as Baraja and Alberda. Naturally, there is no problem with such a player as a defensive player.

But as offensive players, there is a problem, because their offensive abilities are very poor and they have almost no good passing ability.

Therefore, Aragones also used Barcelona's midfield core Xavi to partner with Xavi Alonso in the main lineup. Xavi is the most like Guardiola in the entire Spanish football world, and he is also Barcelona's midfielder and brain player.

In this way, the Spanish team's offense will be smoother on the offense, and Alonso will be an intercepting midfielder around Xavi. This is just an attempt, and it is hard to say whether it can succeed.

This is the benefit of the budget match. The budget match is to give each team a chance to constantly experiment with the best lineup, and then allow the team to find a lineup that is more suitable for them to perform better in the World Cup.

The game changes were indeed effective. Xavi's start led the attack of the entire Spanish team, and Raul sat on the bench for a full ninety minutes.

Everyone is wondering whether the current Spanish football team will change its status, whether the Real Madrid gang will be replaced by the Barcelona gang, and Torres scored two goals in this game and was also named the best player in the game.

During the post-match interview, a reporter asked who he most liked to cooperate with Torres said a name that everyone unexpectedly said.

"If I choose my favorite player, I am willing to choose my teammate Mark because he is so versatile. He can cover almost any position in the game. I feel very comfortable playing with him," said Torres.

Mark is now on the stadium, and the broadcasting camera also gave Mark a close-up. Mark was talking about something with his newly accepted younger brother De Gea at that time, but he didn't notice that the broadcasting camera was aiming at him.

"It seems that Mark doesn't know that he has become the focus of this game now." The commentator teased Mark, who had no idea before seeing the broadcast footage.

"Damn, Fernando is planning to put me on the fire. It seems that I should really do something." Mark returned home and saw what Torres said on the computer.

"Mumo, go and contact the board of Atletico Madrid. I ask for a starting position in the next game, otherwise I would say I would transfer in the winter." Mark is also serious now, because Mark knows that if he doesn't take any measures against Atletico Madrid's board of directors, his position will be no longer guaranteed.

After understanding this period of time, Mark learned that Ferlando was a very suspicious person and a very petty person. If he offended Ferlando, he would not want to appear.

Mark was exiled on the bench after offending Ferlando before, but at that time he finally had a chance to play. However, after Torres said such words after the Spanish game, Mark felt that even his chances were not much, so Mark had to strive to put pressure on the club.

This was not what Mark thought, but Mark could not play games with Ferlando here. Ferlando had time to play, but Mark didn't. Mark also wanted to win enough honors through performance to be able to perform well.

Mark had to use this ultimate method. If the club does not compromise, Mark would transfer directly. Anyway, there are still many teams that have liked Mark now, and they are not much different from Atletico Madrid.

"Mark, you finally decided, okay, I'll do it tomorrow. I'll find it and think you should do it like this." Momo said with a little regret that he was disappointed.

The previous Momo did mention pressure on the board of directors with Mark, but Mark felt that the time was not right, so Mark still hoped that he could win the respect of the players through his outstanding performance on the court.

So Mark naturally doesn't want to tear off the face like this. After all, if a player really wants to put pressure on the club, it would be a very impolite behavior. This will cause the club's plan, so ordinary players will not do this. If they really tear off the face with the club, it will not be of much benefit to the players.

But Mark knew how Ferlando would react after hearing Torres' words. In Mark's impression, Ferlando was already like a lunatic, and Mark didn't want to be with this lunatic and said anything more.

But Mark still kept a move, that is, Mark did not directly let the club fire Ferlando. Mark felt that Atletico Madrid had achieved such a result and it would not be very wise if the club fired Ferlando.

And Mark naturally would not do such unwise things, because before the start of the season, the goal of Atletico Madrid's board of directors was to qualify for the League Cup, and the current score of Atletico Madrid also meets the requirements of the previous Atletico Madrid board of directors.

Therefore, the board of directors of Atletico Madrid has no dissatisfaction with head coach Ferlando. At least in terms of performance, the directors of Atletico Madrid have no dissatisfaction.

However, Mark did not believe that the current board of directors would really not be dissatisfied with Ferlando. Since Ferlando had banned Torres, he believed that the directors would be dissatisfied with Ferlando.

"Even our golden boy dares to ban it, you have lived enough, right?" There should be many people on the board of Atletico Madrid.

Mark is also very clear about his positioning. Mark knows that he and Torres naturally have no way to compare, but Mark also has his own advantage, that is, he can make money for Atletico Madrid. After Mark joining, it will also be beneficial for Atletico Madrid to open up the Chinese market.

The better Mark performs on the stadium, the more fans will pay attention to Atletico Madrid in China. These fans are intangible assets. Even if they cannot generate profits now, as long as Atletico Madrid operates reasonably, it will bring huge profits to Atletico Madrid within one or two years.

It is because Mark knows that he has these conditions that he is so bold and can put pressure on the club.

Besides, Mark knows that the current Atletico Madrid players are very supportive of him, because Mark's popularity is still very good in Atletico Madrid's club.

It cannot be said that everyone likes Mark, at least most people don’t hate Mark, which is already very good. Being able to achieve a person that most people don’t hate is a level.

This is not between strangers, but between teammates who spend every day. Just like colleagues who do not hate you among most colleagues in a unit, your popularity will be so good.

The most important thing is that Atletico Madrid boss Torres' support for Mark still makes Mark very happy. Torres's words are more effective than Mark's words. Torres' attitude determines whether Mark's life will be good or bad in the future at Atletico Madrid.

Mark here is not alone. Mark believes that if the board of directors really dares to let him go, his good friend Van der Fate will definitely transfer with him.

After all, after Mark left, Van der Fate would not have a friend at Atletico Madrid. The relationship between Van der Fate and Mark was not just a teammate. Van der Fate's wife is Mark's sister. It would be fine if Mark had transferred normally. If Mark was forced to transfer because of the head coach, Van der Fate would definitely not stay in this club.

You should know that the reason why Van der Fate was able to give up his great career in Ajax and even compete for the League Cup was to win the qualifications of the Toto Cup because he could play football with Mark.

The next day, Momo went to the board of directors of Atletico Madrid to negotiate.

Mark was still sitting in the training ground of Atletico Madrid, as if Mark had no concern about this negotiation at all.

"Let's study this matter." Chairman Serezou did not give Momo an accurate reply. He needed to negotiate with other personnel on the board of directors. After all, he could not decide on this matter alone. At least he would also discuss this matter with Hill.

"Mark proposed that he had to play in the next game, otherwise he would apply for a transfer, which was a force to be forced to do so," Serezow said first after Hill came.

Momo did not go to Hill this time. Originally, Hill was responsible for this matter, because Hill, as the general manager of the team, was responsible for coordinating the relationship between the club and the players, but Momo directly found Chairman Cerrezzo, which was enough to show how urgent Mark was about this matter.

This is because if Mark finds Hill, Hill can use a series of means to operate it. If Mark doesn't get a satisfactory answer, he will naturally find Cerrezzo in the end.

But Momo directly found Cerezo, which saved the middle link and lost the retreat. If Cerezo didn't give Mark a satisfactory answer, Mark would have to transfer.

"I don't think Mark can transfer yet. His value has not fully appreciated yet. If he takes action, he can sell at most about 15 million euros. Although it doubles the 8 million euros we introduced him, Mark's appreciation space in the future is still very huge," Hill said first, which is also what Hill is considering from an economic perspective.

After all, Hill is the major shareholder of Atletico Madrid, and he will get the big head for every penny earned by the club, so he has to consider it from his own interests.

"You are right. Mark still represents China's huge market. If we can sign a new contract with him, we should also make better profits." Cerrezzo also agreed with Hill's words. He is the club's second largest shareholder. He will take the second largest head for every penny he earns, so he is also considering the club's economic issues.

The two major shareholders of these two clubs hope that the club can earn more money, so they will naturally gain more economic benefits, which is also the essential view of a businessman.

"You go and tell Ferlando that Mark must be played in the next game," Cerrezo said to Hill, because Hill is the general manager, and it is within his responsibilities to convey this meaning.

"What if he doesn't agree?" Hill asked a key question, because Ferlando had done something that would not cooperate with the club before. When the club asked Ferlando to send Torres on the court, Ferlando seemed very uncooperative, so Hill was also worried that Ferlando would not cooperate this time.

"This problem is really difficult to deal with. The club has a three-year contract with him, and he has done quite well in the club. If he is fired now, he will have to pay a lot of money to terminate the contract." Cerrezo said in a little embarrassed manner.

The chairman of Atletico Madrid club has a headache when he mentions money. He is afraid of spending money. His biggest problem is that. Hill has always been responsible for the introduction of players. If the chairman is really to be held responsible, maybe neither Mark nor Van der Fate would have come.

"I'll talk to him first. If not, we'll come back to discuss it." Hill said to Serezo at this time when he saw that the Chairman had no good idea, and then walked out of the Chairman's office.

Hill also showed her efficiency. After the players' training that day, he found Ferlando for a detailed negotiation. It was not so much a negotiation, but rather an order. Hill ordered Ferlando to send Mark on the court. If it didn't work, the club would consider Ferlando's future.

Ferlando also responded toughly that he had his own principles. As for whom he sent to play, it was his freedom. Ferlando's words imply that he would not send Mark to play.

Hill and Ferlando's conversation ended in a bad mood. Hill ran back to Cerezo's office and cursed Ferlando, which made Cerezo and Hill finally cursed Ferlando in the office together.

However, after scolding, they calmed down. They felt that it was not easy to control Ferlando. Ferlando did not give Hill, the representative of the board of directors, at all, that was, he did not give the board of directors of Atletico Madrid.

So Hill is planning to change coaches if Atletico Madrid cannot win the next game. As for the candidates for changing coaches, there are still a few more.

For example, Argentine Cooper, Ramos, who coached Betis before, and Aragones who coached the national team are all candidates they consider. Among the candidates here, Cerrezo still likes Aragones the most, because Aragones, nicknamed Zhisou, led Atletico Madrid to achieve glory, and is now the coach of the Spanish national team. If he can coach Atletico Madrid, Atletico Madrid will naturally have some advantages.

"How is it talking?" Mark asked after seeing Momo after returning home that day. Mark is also very anxious now, because Mark does not want to leave Atletico Madrid, and his previous urge to force the palace was just his expedient measure. Mark believes that he will not really break up with the club.

"It's okay, I just have to wait for the news. I believe you should know what the news is like in the next game. However, according to my analysis, Ferlando should have a great chance of failure." Momo also said with a smile, because according to her observation, Cerrezo attached great importance to Mark's affairs at that time, and Momo also had the same idea as Mark. If Atletico Madrid did not make changes, there was really no need to stay in this team, but it would be better not to transfer.
