The King of Football
Three people meeting


... ...


Argentina's crazy attack has finally made Russia irresistible!


After all, the strength of the Argentine team is far above the Russian team. In the second half of the game, Argentina seemed to regain the feeling they had when it destroyed the Quartet in South America. Brace Barty and icing Crespo on the cake led Argentina to a three-A victory over Russia...


In the second half, Leon who served as Argentina's left midfielder played for 90 minutes.Leon played well both as an attacking midfielder and left midfielder.He also received unanimous praise from his team-mates after the game.


In particular, Aimar, Crespo, Placent, Ortega, and the other Gan Riverbed brothers, their love for this little brother could not be expressed in words.


And the captain of the Argentina national team today, the wizard Veron, did well in the second half. Veron is a superstar!


Even if you play bad again, there are still no problems with Russian abuse.


But the Argentine team had hidden dangers in the second half... Captain Ayala is wounded!


Injury to first-team captain Ayala overshadowed Argentina's trip to the World Cup.


Right after the game ended, Ayala went to the hospital for an examination, and the end result was that she would probably be absent for about fifteen days... This basically means that Ayala will miss the entire group stage.


The rest of the Argentina national team returned to the hotel.


Their head coach Bielsa was temporarily told to go to a senior club in Sapporo, Japan...


There, there would be two big men waiting for him.


...


“Chairman Grondona, Mr. Pekerman... I don't know why you are looking for me?” At the moment, the person sitting in front of Bielsa is the biggest voice in South American football. Combining money, power, and popularity, In the change of power of FIFA, Grondona, the emperor of Argentine football, is growing.


And Pekerman, who has a high reputation in Argentina.


You see, Bielsa could be the coach of the Argentine national team from the recommendation of Pekerman to Grondona.


Looking at Bielsa, Grondona and Pekerman both smiled at each other, then Grondona looked at Bielsa and asked, "Coach Bielsa, I don't want to disturb your coaching in the national team, but I'm sorry. Let me be frank, what do you think of the Argentine national team under your command."


Grondona came, of course it was no trivial matter! To know that in the future of FIFA, only Grondona knows what Blatter's annual salary and dividend will be.


Of course, in his previous life, there were also many people who believed that Grondona was the culprit of his own lack of system in Argentine football.


After thinking about it, Bielsa replied: "Our condition is fine, everyone is doing well in the warm-up game."


“Well, everyone's performance was very good, but coach Bielsa, do you think this Argentina team does not have a true leader?” grondona asked with a smile.


Bielsa was astonished, he could not guess the meaning of Grondona's words...


At this moment, Pekerman stood up and said: "Marcelo (Belsa), the chairman asks you, after captain Ayala is injured, he said, You have decided who will be the leader of the Argentine national team in the next World Cup. ?"


Bielsa hesitated and replied: "Vellon."


At this moment, after listening to Bielsa's decision, Grondona shook his head: "Veron is not a good captain, as you know from his actions in Argentina, he is a good player on the pitch, he is a good player, but he is definitely not a good captain. Not a good captain."


Bielsa was a little overwhelmed by Grondona's words. Of course, if he finds out that Leonville is the illegitimate son of Grondona's youngest son, perhaps the doubt in his heart will disappear!


You must know that one of Grondona's favorite sons is Leonwell. Although he is an illegitimate child, it is difficult to hide Grondona's love for him.


So Grondona came today, precisely for the future of Leon Weir in the Argentine national team. Grondona was indeed an uncompromising dictator, the biggest cancer of Argentine football, but in this lifetime, Leon Weir's performances have completely changed all of this...


Pekerman also relieved Bielsa: "I and the chairman both watched a friendly match today. Looks like captain Veron isn't too sure of the other players."


Bielsa said: "Yes, President, Mr. Pekerman, Veron is not very convinced by everyone, but the World Cup is about to start, I have decided that Veron is the national team of Argentina. Captain in the field ."


Grondona continued to shake his head, "Coach Bielsa, in fact, me and Pekerman have been discussing, why does the Argentine team always miss the World Cup after Maradona? We have the best players in the world, why can't we leave? continue on? I think we're short of leaders like Diego..."


Bielsa nodded: "Actually, I have this plan. Simeone has served the team for a long time and is a candidate for captain, but I have decided that the vice-captain is Veron. According to the rules, he was a candidate for the captain... Chairman, Mr. Peckerman, it's not a good sign to change players."


Grondona and Pekelman did not continue to wrestle with the captain.


After all, Bielsa was the head coach of the national team.


Grondona looked at Bielsa and asked: "Coach Bielsa, what do you think about using Leon Weir at this World Cup? He is one of the most popular players in our national team now, you know, he has just done a miracle and a great brilliance with his team-mates in Argentina...I thought, why don't you try to develop Leon Weir as the new core of our future?"


Bielsa pondered for a moment. In fact, he also felt Leonwell would work better together with Aimar, Ortega, and others after he played, but what position should Leonwell play? The team's main midfielder, Simeone, and Matthias Almeida's main position are unshakable. Veron's forward field is his designated vice-captain and the next captain. Ortega and Aimar?


No one can take Bielsa.


“President, Leon is too young! I think this World Cup is the most important thing for him to gather experience.” Bielsa could only say that.


This time, Grondona shook his head again, "Coach Bielsa, today's match has proven that Leon has the power to play a major force for the Argentine national team, although his personal abilities are still lacking, he said, but you also know, He and Aimar and Ortega are also from the River Plate system. The three work together much better than Veron, Aimar and Ortega. Sometimes on the pitch, not who is stronger. Anyone can play, like a good computer, compatibility is the most reasonable."


Grondona explains that she wants to help her youngest son come to power!


This is not a chess game played by Grondona. If Leonwell can become the future leader of the Argentine national team, then the rights of Grondona will be even greater. With Leonwell helping him control For the national team, Grondona could cover the sky even more with one hand.


Of course, other than strength, Grondona's love for Leon Weir was unquestionable, and Leon's appearance was impressive as well! If Leon is a bastard who can't help, what's the point of Grondona?


But now, on the pitch, Leon has shown that he is better suited for Argentina than Veron, so Grondona has the capital to talk to Bielsa.


Bielsa is now finally feeling the pressure of being the head coach of the Argentina national team ... Yeah, it's not him who really decides everything for the Argentina national team, it's Grondona, and if Argentina lose, he pays the loss, but not Grondona!


“Peach coach Bielsa, I hope you will think about my suggestion. Of course, I also agree with what you said. It is not easy for the Argentine national team to perform and play in the World Cup. However, Leon must be a good player." After saying this, Grondona left first.


Instead, Pekelman stayed behind to talk to Bielsa.


“Marcelo, tell me the truth, besides the fact that the chairman likes Leon Weir, what do you think of Leon Weir?” Pekerman looked at Bielsa and asked on the street.


Bielsa thought for a moment and said: "Leonville is indeed more suited to the Argentine national team system, but Jose (Pekelman), you know, I can't win Veron ..."


Pekerman nodded: "So, Marcelo! You've caused a lot of trouble for yourself. The Argentine national team has always been based on seniority. Passarella in 1978, Passarella in 1982, and Passarella in 1986. It was Maradona's turn in 2008, and what happened after that? In 1998, it was Simeone. I don't think you should have decided and promised Veron to be vice-captain. In terms of prestige, Simeone is way above Veron ... Sigh, If Veron is not the captain, then it is not difficult for you to win it. But now, Ayala is injured, whether he can play in the World Cup becomes unknown ... If Ayala can't play, by the rules, vice-captain Veron will definitely be captain.But Veron isn't a popular guy, your team looks bright now, but it's actually starting to falter a little!"


Jose Pekerman's words made Bielsa suddenly wake up, "Jose, what do you think I should do now? I'm not good at managing teams like you."


Pekelman smiled: "You're riding a tiger now, and you won't let Veron be the captain? Veron must not be satisfied with you. Let Veron be captain, he's not convincing. Or use Leonwei as the chairman says. Er's? It's not impossible, because there are a lot of former River Plate players in this team, and everyone is keeping Leonwell, but what position do you let him play after Leonwell plays? There are many contradictions, Marcelo!"


Bielsa nodded, hoping that Pekelman, a well-respected old man, could give him a clue.


"But there's no way to deal with it. First of all, you must remember the words of the chairman. Marcelo, I know you've put in a lot of effort for this Argentina team, and you also want to lead this Argentina team to win the championship. I don't want to give you any more pressure ... Also, Marcelo, since you think Leon is good, then use him bravely! With the Chairman supporting you, you don't need to care much!" After that day, Pekerman continued to stare at Bielsa and said: "Let me teach you a trick. The first thing you have to do now is go back and understand the minds of the players. As far as I know, the Argentine team is entitled to Veron. Over 60% of captains are dissatisfied! This time you can democratize, and give the players a chance to choose the captain! This way, no matter who you choose, it will not be your fault.!"


Bielsa nodded, and Pekelman was right, Crazy Bielsa nodded and accepted Pekelman's suggestion.


Pekelman continued to say to Bielsa: "Then there was Leonwell's problem, you thought he could, and the chairman supported, as long as Veron was not selected as captain, then you would use Leonwell. It seems very simple. Marcelo, you have to remember that in front of the chairman, you may be just a junior, but in front of those players, you are the highest boss! Be sure to show your authority! And I heard that Lai Di the national team, except for a few players like Veron, he has a very good relationship with everyone personally, he said, and you can use Leonwell to buy people's hearts!"


Bielsa nodded again.At this time, Bielsa felt the biggest weakness of being a head coach was that he would not be able to form his own cronies like Pekelman.


At the 2002 World Cup in Korea and Japan, Argentina had five captains on the pitch, this should be said to be the biggest reason for Argentina's defeat in East Asia!


The players were not convinced by anyone! Qualifying is qualifying, the World Cup is the World Cup! Bielsa did choose the twenty-three best men in Argentina at the time, but it was the twenty-three best who created the tragedy of Argentina's defeat in East Asia!


Bielsa is a good coach, really a good coach, but management is definitely not his forte!


Successful teams in history do not necessarily have the best players, but they are definitely the most united.


Argentina's dressing room storm began with a meeting of three men Grondona, Pekerman and Bielsa...


The next-generation three-man meeting was also hailed as the biggest change in the history of the Argentine national team.
