Guardiola has been having a very tangled life recently!

Even after the season, he was not in the mood to go out for vacation, but chose to stay at home.

As the former King of Camp Nou, Guardiola feels that the halo on her body has gradually dissipated!

In fact, he knew very well that the fans' love for him had not changed at all, but what had changed was the trust of the club management and coaches in him!

Although Barcelona and Real Madrid are mortal enemies, they have a lot in common.

Among them, the most obvious point is that the power struggles at the top are often easily affected by players.

Once the emperor and the ministers come to office, whenever a new club chairman of these two clubs takes office, some of the former chairman’s confidant players and managers will be cleaned up!

The most famous of these is the incident in which Florentino took office last summer and immediately cleaned up King Redondo, the minds of Real Madrid fans, to AC Milan!

There is no doubt that Florentino's actions at that time were simply committing suicide!

If he hadn't had successfully signed the vice captain of his arch-rival Barcelona because of his private agreement with Figo, he would have been knocked down as soon as he took office because of his strong dissatisfaction among fans.

Compared with Redondo, Guardiola, who is also the best organizational midfielder in the world, has relatively better luck, but it is not much better!

As a producer of Lamacia's youth training camp, he has received even more love from fans than Redondo.

Therefore, when the chairman Gaspart, who trusts Guardiola very much, left office, although the newly appointed chairman Nunes did not like him, he did not dare to blatantly sweep Guardiola out like Florentino!

However, although Guardiola stayed at Barcelona, ​​he loved deeply, his career reached an unstoppable low point.

The club's performance declined, the uninterrupted struggle between senior management, the distrust of Van Gaal's new coach after he was dismissed, and the poor performance of the Spanish national team in the 2000-year European Cup... A series of pressures made Guardiola feel discouraged.

As the season was about to end, he made a decision that even he was surprised by, that was not to renew his contract with the club!

Originally, he thought that when he said this, he would be retained by the club.

Who knew that Nunes just pretended to care about something like where he was going to go next stop.

Faced with such a chairman who completely disrespects and does not value himself, Guardiola is also sure that it is time for him to leave.

However, after the news of his failure to renew his contract with the club spread, it caused an earthquake-like sensation in Barcelona and even Spain.

Because almost everyone thinks that the king of Camp Nou will live for Barcelona!

After learning about this, Barcelona fans gathered in front of Guardiola's apartment and begged him not to leave.

"Josep, don't leave, Josep is ours." The fans of the Red and Blue Army were moved to call, and those who heard it were moved.

The fans' retention has caused Guardiola to wander between staying and leaving.

On one hand, he did not pay any attention to his chairman and coach at all, and on the other hand, he was fans who respected him very much. He didn't know which side he should choose!

More importantly, although the news of his departure from the team these days has been rumored, I and my agent have not received many sincere invitations.

Somewhat similar to Van der Sar is that as a veteran who is over 30 years old and missed nearly half of the games last season due to injury, Guardiola seems to have little appeal to the giants.

In fact, some clubs that contacted his agent seem to be interested in the fact that his contract does not require a transfer fee when it expires!

Guardiola refused these invitations without any sincerity.

As the king of Camp Nou, Guardiola has his own pride, a kind of pride that cannot be trampled on!

At this moment, his agent told him that Betis' magical Don also expressed his interest in him and hoped to meet him!

When he heard Betis, Guardiola subconsciously prepared to refuse because he did not want to join a new team. However, after hearing the name of Shenqi Tang, he was about to say no and swallowed it up again.

As a player over 30 years old, Guardiola has already prepared for the future and began to consider his plans after retirement.

Originally, his idea was to live a life in Barcelona, ​​and with his reputation, he should naturally enter the club management.

However, his bad relationship with Nunez made him give up this plan.

Then, becoming a coach like many retired players has become another option for him.

With this idea in mind, Guardiola also paid attention to the performance of Spain's most popular coach, Shenqi Don and his team last season.

Betis' performance really made him shine. He had always thought that Barcelona's system and tactics should be considered the most advanced in world football. However, he saw some tactics he had never seen before in Betis' game.

Moreover, Xavi Alonso in Betis's team also gave him a bright feeling. Or rather, he saw the shadow of his youth from Xavi Alonso!

So, when all the media and fans were amazed at the crazy performance of Betis last season, Guardiola took it for granted. And he also developed a strong interest in the magical Don.

Therefore, after a little consideration, Guardiola agreed to meet Tang Feng!

...

Tang Feng and Guardiola met in a business meeting room.

Tang Feng also had his considerations when he did not choose a cafe or restaurant.

Guardiola is the king in the minds of Barcelona fans. If they discovered that he "seduced" them here, who knows whether the hot-hearted Catalans will beat him up?

After all, it is not much different to poaching players in essence from poaching other people's girlfriends? Even though Guardiola is about to break up with Barcelona now, it's just about to get out!

Guardiola did not bring his agent to come today, but met Tang Feng alone.

Obviously, in his opinion, this meeting was mainly aimed at the man Shenqi Tang, and he did not think too much about joining Betis.

Tang Feng seemed to have discovered this, so he was also smart and did not choose to invite Guardiola to join immediately, but started with another topic.

After a polite introduction between the two, Tang Feng suddenly said: "Josep, I wonder if you have made plans for your life after retirement?"

Logically speaking, it is a bit rude for an active player over 30 to ask such a question. After all, a thirty-year-old player is originally a sensitive age, and "retirement" is undoubtedly their sensitive word!

However, Guardiola didn't care. He smiled and said, "Maybe, I will try to be a coach!"

Hearing Guardiola's answer, Tang Feng seemed not surprised at all. He said with a mysterious look on his face: "I can guarantee that you will definitely become an excellent coach in the future!"

"Oh? How did you see it?" Guardiola asked curiously. He didn't want Tang Feng to be just a simple compliment.

Nonsense, I'm the future world watching you win the six-champion and found a time traveler who created the "Cosmic Team Dynasty". But can I tell you this?

"It should be a kind of intuition! Moreover, you can also find this from your current position as a player. As Barcelona's most famous No. 4 player, aren't you the equivalent of a coach on the football field? After retiring, you only need to change your perspective to the sidelines. Therefore, it is definitely much easier for you to become a coach than an ordinary player!" Tang Feng pretended to analyze.

However, Tang Feng's words sound very reasonable to Guardiola.

In fact, last season, Guardiola, who often watched games on the sidelines due to injuries and lack of attention, has begun to try to watch the game from a coach's perspective!

Seeing that Guardiola seemed to agree with his words, Tang Feng also seized the opportunity and said: "How about it, Josep, come to Betis. I can let you try out a new role... Player and coach!"

Player and coach?

Although he knew that the purpose of Tang Feng's trip was to bring him to Betis, he was still a little surprised when Tang Feng made such an invitation.

At this stage, although Guardiola has initially decided to leave Barcelona, ​​he prefers to go to other national leagues like Serie A rather than stay in La Liga. The reason is that he does not want to be enemies with his beloved Barcelona!

Therefore, he had never thought of accepting Betis' invitation before. However, after Tang Feng made such a suggestion, he was somewhat moved.

Isn’t this a good method suitable for him to continue playing football on the court and to start an early “internship” in the coach position?

Moreover, although Shenqi Tang is not a famous coach, according to Guardiola's understanding, some of Shenqi Tang's tactical ideas are actually very advanced.

More importantly, Shenqi Tang and him are not very old, so it is definitely more convenient to communicate with him in normal times?

"I know, you may not want to stay in La Liga or be against Barcelona. But have you really thought about it? Is your style suitable for playing football in other leagues?" Tang Feng saw Guardiola's hesitation, so he continued.

"I won't talk about the Premier League. Although they have made great progress in recent years, their league's physical requirements are still very high. I am bluntly obedient, if you go to the Premier League, you will definitely not be able to take advantage of it. In the Premier League, what they need is a strong midfielder, not a technical midfielder like you. At least, in a short period of time, it will be difficult for a technical player like you to take advantage of it in the Premier League."

"Maybe you think that technical midfielders like you are more popular in Serie A. Indeed, there are many technical midfielders in Serie A, and Albertini is the best among them. Even your old rival Rettono has gone to Italy. However, have you ever considered the difference in rhythm between Serie A and La Liga? As an organizational midfielder, you are the metronome of the stadium and the team's brain. But if the players cannot adapt to your rhythm, how can the team still operate? I'm afraid there will be no coach who will be willing to drive away all the other ten people for you, the core of the midfield, and find ten people who can adapt to your rhythm to regroup, right?"

"As for Ligue 1 and Bundesliga, to put it bluntly, they are gradually being separated by the three leagues of Britain, Italy and Spain. In the future, European football will no longer be the traditional five leagues, but will become the three leagues! So, instead of going to Ligue 1 and Bundesliga, you might as well stay in La Liga? Moreover, through my analysis, you must have found that La Liga is the best league for you, whether in the past or present! To put it bluntly, you are over thirty years old and you don't have time to adapt to another league again!"

Tang Feng's earnest words made Guardiola fall into deep thought...[(m) Read without windows]
