    They won away from home in the two-round knockout round. Although they only won one goal, it was still a pretty good start. So on the way back to Newcastle, the players were in good mood. Maybe Bellamy was the only one who felt that he was not.  He was not convinced after getting more opportunities, but it was also true that the team's offense had obviously improved after he left the field, so he could only keep it in his heart if he was angry.

    However, the person who should be happy the most did not show any joy - for Mourinho, the new coach, it is very important to get a good start. At least the fans can have more confidence in him, Pei Wei noted.  By this point, he understood why Mourinho didn't seem too excited.

    Strictly speaking, Pei Wei and Mourinho are the same people. Although they are very different in personality, they have the same view on the team, and discipline is what they emphasize most.  One thing, and this is what Newcastle lacks most now.

    Although Robson has led Newcastle to the European Champions Cup for two consecutive years, his gentle coaching methods are now somewhat outdated. This is not to say that Newcastle's players are not highly professional, but because there are many in the team.  A guy with a unique personality who cares more about his own performance than the overall interests of the team.

    Bellamy is one. This player is very talented, very skilled, and has strong personal abilities. However, as a speedy and technical forward, his accustomed position is that of a standard center, and he is very good with Shearer on the court.  Little cooperation.  More of a one-on-one approach, which Mourinho cannot tolerate. He cannot allow players' personal performance to override the overall interests.

    The other one is captain Shearer. Although Shearer is the banner of Newcastle, he is a bit selfish on the court.  He is even so selfish that he cannot tolerate the coach subbing him off midway. His hope is that no matter what his status is.  As long as he can play, he will stay on the court until the last minute. For this reason, he even announced his retirement from the national team at the age of thirty, just to be able to participate in more Newcastle games. In fact, after Shearer retired in later generations,  His evaluation is also mixed, in this season in history.  It was because Shearer was dissatisfied with his lack of playing time that he clashed with Robson, which eventually led to Robson leaving Newcastle. According to a popular Chinese saying, Shearer can be regarded as the "ball tyrant" within Newcastle.

    "Jose, it depends on your ability to control playersbut I believe you will not let me down." Pei Wei thought silently in his heart: "What I can do is to fully support you.  Yes, when necessary, it is also necessary to kill the chicken and scare the monkey. You can take your time to achieve results, and quickly establish your prestige within the team. This is what you must do now."

    Mourinho did not disappoint him, and his actions were even faster than Pei Wei expected.

    After returning to Newcastle, the players got a day's rest. When they changed clothes in the locker room and went to the training ground the next day.  Only then did he realize that head coach Mourinho had arrived a long time ago, with his hands in his pockets and a pair of sunglasses on his face, which accentuated the sharp edges of his face like a knife and an ax.

    Standing next to him was the young assistant coach, 38-year-old John Carver.

    The players looked at the two coaches in puzzlement. Mourinho remained sullen and silent, while Kafuer signaled them to start warming up on their own and prepare for the next training.

    The players started to warm up one after another, and when they were almost done.  Mourinho tilted his head and asked: "What time is it?"

    "It's five minutes to nine," Kaffer replied, "There are only five minutes left before the prescribed time to start training."

    "Who's not here yet?" Mourinho asked next.  With just a glance, Carver could tell who hadn't come yet. After all, there were only about twenty people: "Craig Bellamy hasn't come yet."

    "Okay. No need to wait for him just blow the whistle and let the players gather." Mourinho said calmly.

    Kafur nodded and blew the whistle hanging around his neck: "Assemble!"

    The players on the training ground immediately walked over to Mourinho and the others and automatically stood in several rows.

    "Before training today, I want to say a few words to everyone." Looking at the players standing in front of him, Mourinho said: "What are you talking about? Tell me about my rules."

    "This year, the number of Newcastle first-team players is 27, and last year, the number was 29. We sent away 12 players and introduced 10 players. Although there are two players missing, it is not  This means that the competition within the team will decrease. On the contrary, the players sent away are all players whose strength cannot gain a foothold in the team, while those who stay and attractThose who advance, in my mind, are all qualified to be the main force.  "Mourinho began his lecture: "But there are twenty-seven players in the entire first team, and there are only eleven players on the field, and only seven can sit on the bench. In other words, every player  In every game, there will definitely be nine players sitting in the stands - but for our team that needs to fight on the third line, everyone will have a chance to play, and the number of opportunities depends on your status and training.  level of effort.  "

    For Newcastle last season, the difference between their main players and substitutes was relatively large. It was unusual for the main players to play thirty or forty games in a season, but after introducing ten capable players this year, they also have  Mental preparation, after all, the more good players in the team, the greater the competition, and the number of appearances for each person will be reduced. This is something everyone can imagine.

    "In addition, in the new season, every game will be very important, because we have a lot of games this year, and I don't want us to go out early on any front - Newcastle people have been longing for the championship for a long time, and we  We also have the same desire to win the championship So in this season, we will not give up in any game, so in every game I will use players with better physical fitness and condition, and will never force players with poor physical fitness or condition to be on the court.  Going into the game is not only irresponsible for the team¡¯s performance, but also irresponsible for their own bodies.¡±

    As soon as Mourinho said these words, the newly transferred players had no reaction, but the old players looked at Shearer in unison with some surprise. You know, no matter how tired Shearer was last season, as long as there was no  Injury is the absolute main force, and Shearer is also happy to do so. Now Mourinho's words are obviously aimed at Shearer.

    However, Shearer did not show any displeasure. Instead, he looked at Mourinho happily with a smile on his face.

    Seeing this scene, several old team members murmured in their hearts - Did Alan take the wrong medicine?  Can he tolerate not playing?

    At this moment, Bellamy, the only person who was late, walked over from the direction of the locker room. He didn't seem to be in a hurry at all. He was putting on his training clothes and walking slowly.  Come over.

    "Ha, what are you doing?" After getting closer, Bellamy seemed to realize that the other players were standing in several rows, and couldn't help laughing: "The rows are so neatare you going to join the army?"

    The other players looked at Bellamy as if they were a fool - didn't they see that the head coach was lecturing him?  You're so arrogant even though you're late, don't you want to hang out?

    "What are you looking at me for? Am I stupid?" Seeing other teammates staring at him, Bellamy was a little embarrassed.

    "Mr. Craig Bellamy, do you know what time today's training starts?" A voice came from behind him. Bellamy turned around and immediately saw Mourinho's face.

    "Nine o'clock" Bellamy said nonchalantly: "I'm sorry, coach, there was a traffic jam on the road, so I'm late."

    "You're twenty-eight minutes late." Mourinho turned to Kafer and asked: "What are the rules on lateness for team training?"

    "A warning will be given if you are late for less than ten minutes, and you will be fined a week's salary if you are late for less than one hour. If you are late for more than an hour, you will be admitted to the reserve team for one week of training If you ask for leave, you must ask for leave within 90 minutes before the start of training, and you must have a legitimate reason." Kafuer quickly said  answer.

    "Mr. Craig, I think you should understand now, right? After training, go to the Accounting Department to pay the fine Now, please return to the team."

    Bellamy opened his mouth, wanting to say something but in the end he remained silent. He also knew that he was at fault, but the fine of one week's salary still made him feel sad - that's thirty-seven thousand pounds!

    Bellamy returned to the team angrily. Mourinho did not dwell on this matter anymore, but continued: "There are only about half a month until the start of the league, and in five days, we have another game.  The knockout rounds of the Champions League are about to be played, and I am fully confident that we will enter the main round of the Champions League - in that case, we will have four competitions to play in the new season: the league, Champions League, FA Cup and League Cup.  So you don¡¯t need to worry about not having any games to play. In the new season, I will only choose players based on two principles, first, physical fitness and physical condition, and second, whether they meet the tactical requirements. Newcastle United is not a youth team.  I will not play players who do not meet the tactical requirements for the purpose of training players. What I want is just victory and championship. For me, the name of the player is not important, the team always comes first.  With Pele and Maradona, they also have to obey the team. The best teams always do this, the overall priority - this is?¡¯s coaching philosophy.  "

    "For me, the greatest in the world is God. After God, it is me, Mourinho." Mourinho said this slowly to his players.

    "This guy is an egomaniac." After hearing these words, at least ten players present thought so.
