    Although Mourinho had a smile on his face, he really wanted to ravage Benitez's dead face.

    Although the game was a draw, Mourinho knew that he lost to this guy in the on-the-spot command competition.

    First of all, Benitez unexpectedly used nearly eight players' defensive strength just to get a draw. Mourinho did not expect it. He did not expect Benitez to be able to defend to this point.  , I originally thought that even if this guy was mainly defensive, he would always have a little bit of offense.

    In addition, during the game, Benitez also used a little trick. He asked Robben to warm up at the beginning of the second half. However, in fact, he did not intend to send Robben to the field immediately. Instead, he used this small move to disturb Mourinho.  Rinho's mind made Mourinho mistakenly think that Benitez was about to strengthen the counterattack, and lost the opportunity for the players to continue to strengthen the offensive. When Mourinho realized it, the rest of the game  Time was running out. Benitez then sent Robben on the field and used his personal ability to contain the assists of Newcastle full-backs, successfully maintaining the zero-0 draw until the end.

    Mourinho was very angry. He felt that he had been cheated. Although intrigues often occur in football matches, Mourinho's character is also inevitably prone to "I can lie to you, but you  You can¡¯t lie to me¡± gangster logic.

    But having said that, football head coaches generally have this kind of gangster logic.  The specific manifestation is that it is not enough to suffer losses and not enough to take advantage.

    But Mourinho also knows clearly that no matter how angry, helpless or frustrated he is, he cannot show it on his face. If the guy in front of him with extremely good observation skills discovers his mental state, I am afraid he will be able to show it on his face.  Use this to come up with some tricks in the second round.

    So he still had a smile on his face and shook hands with Benitez affectionately.  He smiled and said: "Rafael, you really surprised me I didn't expect you to come here just for a draw It's amazing. You are worthy of being the double champion of La Liga and the UEFA Cup last year!"

    Benitez wiped a handful of sweat on his forehead in a slightly exaggerated manner, and his seemingly expressionless face suddenly became vivid: "Jose. Don't say I was almost nervous to death during the game.  , for fear of losing the ball, you see, my head is sweating I am really afraid that your players will score a goal. Fortunately, I am quite lucky. "

    Mourinho approached him affectionately and whispered: "Look, we are going to Stamford Bridge as a guest in the next game What good program will you prepare? I am looking forward to the game in a week  ¡­ Our luck was not good today, but at Stamford Bridge, I think we will definitely turn around.¡±

    "Yes. I believe this." Benitez nodded: "But to be honest, Jose, I envy you very much. You have a good boss like Pei My Russian boss is not as kind as Pei. Although  They all grew up under the red flag of socialism. If I don't win a meaningful championship this season, then I might be fired How about you help me and make my position more stable.  ? I don¡¯t think Pei will fire you, but I have a family that depends on me to support you.¡±

    The two looked at each other.  Suddenly they laughed at the same time.

    Mourinho let go of his hand: "GoodbyeRaphael. See you at Stamford Bridge."

    Benitez was not angry at all that Mourinho stole his talk, and waved his hand with a smile.  Smiling like a Buddha: "See you at Stamford Bridge."

    As soon as he turned around, Mourinho's face was covered with a layer of frost, and Benitez returned to his dead face and walked towards their respective coaching benches.

    In these several rounds of verbal exchanges, neither of them could take advantage.

    Pei Wei watched the conversation between the two from a distance, and because of the angle he was standing at, he could clearly see the changes in their faces after they turned around - he was so familiar with these two people, even if he only saw part of their faces.  , and you can also see how their expressions are.

    According to Pei Wei's observations and memories in his previous life, during the nearly four years that Mourinho dominated the Premier League, his biggest opponent was not the wily Ferguson or the resourceful Arsene Wenger, but this bitter-faced player.  nits.

    Historically, the two of them landed in the Premier League at the same time. It seems that these two young European coaches are expected to be mortal enemies.

    As soon as Mourinho appeared in the Premier League, he attracted everyone's attention with his unparalleled momentum. His two consecutive Premier League titles reached the peak of his reputation, making him a well-deserved championship-level coach. In comparison, Benitez  is much more low-key, but he is Mourinho's most troublesome opponent, and his overall strength in Liverpool is not as good asIn the case of Chelsea, Benitez brilliantly adopted the strategy of giving up the league to keep the Champions League. Although he always suffered a complete defeat against Chelsea in the league, Mourinho suffered a lot in the Champions League where he made his fortune.  The trouble is, if Mourinho doesn't hate Benitez, it would be a lie.

    Originally, after Pei Wei saw how he had established friendships with Wenger, Benitez and Mourinho, three enemies in the Premier League, through his own efforts, he was deeply proud of himself for changing history. Now it seems that  Come on, no matter what, after Mourinho and Benitez landed in the Premier League successively, the drifting apart between them has become an irreversible fact.

    Maybe in the future, they will regard each other as their biggest enemy

    The second leg of the Champions League semi-finals will be played in a week. During this period, the 36th round of the Premier League will also be played at this time. With only three rounds left in the league, there can still be games.  The only teams left with a chance to win the league title are Newcastle and Chelsea.

    Newcastle is still ranked first in the standings, but their advantage is very slim-the points are equal to Chelsea. The only thing that can put them in first place is simply that their goal difference is only a few points higher than Chelsea.  one of.

    In this round of matches, Chelsea is challenging Bolton Wanderers away, while Newcastle is facing Crystal Palace at home.

    Bolton¡¯s performance this season is not bad, currently ranked seventh, while Crystal Palace¡¯s situation is not good, only ranked 15th, only one step away from the relegation zone.

    But everyone knows that at the last moment of the league, this kind of team that is not out of danger of being relegated is even more dangerous. Newcastle, who played the best in the previous few games, won the last place in the league with Norwich, which was so difficult to prove this.

    Bolton seems to be strong, but they are currently ranked seventh, far behind Liverpool, which is sixth. As for the Premier League European War allocation quota, since the winners of the FA Cup and League Cup are eligible to participate in the UEFA Cup, only the fifth in the Premier League can  Directly entering the UEFA Cup competition, sixth place will go to the Toto Cup, so there is not much difference between seventh and seventeenth. As a nursing home in the Premier League, it is still unknown how much strength Bolton can explode at the last moment of the league.  .

    It is precisely because of this that although Newcastle seems to be in a good situation, it is actually more difficult than Chelsea.  "I plan to send out substitutes in the league to let the main players have a good rest to prepare for the second round. What do you think?"

    After training that day, Mourinho found Pei Wei and said this to him.

    Pei Wei was a little surprised: "You have always made the decision in this regard. I am not an expert like you. There is nothing I can do to help you in this regard Why do you ask so suddenly?"

    Mourinho smiled bitterly. Perhaps he would only show this expression in front of Pei Wei and his family. In front of outsiders, he has always been the biggest "madman" who remains calm even when the mountain collapses.

    "I want to hear your opinion, because at this time, maybe you are the most sober." Mourinho said.

    "Do you want to make a choice between the league or the Champions League?" Pei Wei asked sharply.

    "No, if I want to, then I definitely want to have both." Mourinho shook his head.

    "I think we should first ensure the league." Pei Wei hesitated and said: "First, the league championship is the foundation. Second, we already won the Champions League last season. Third"

    Pei Wei did not say the third, but Mourinho understood what he meant: "Are you worried about away games? Do you hope to keep at least one?"

    Pei Wei smiled bitterly and nodded.

    Mourinho glanced at him and said firmly: "But I want to give it a try."

    "Then go and fight." Pei Wei sighed: "You are the head coach, you are the manager, everything is decided by you Even if I am the boss, I will not interfere with your choice of team goals."

    "Thank you, Pei." Mourinho suddenly said in a serious tone: "Thank you for giving me such loose coaching conditions I am even afraid that I will not be able to find a boss like you in the future and will be at a loss."

    "Do you want to leave me? Jose?" Pei Wei laughed: "If you are afraid of being at a loss in the future, then don't leave my team. You know, you are Newcastle's biggest superstar"

    Mourinho laughed sincerely. As a head coach, if he can have such a boss who trusts him almost unconditionally, what more can he ask for?

    "I won't let you down and I won't leave voluntarily." Mourinho thought silently in his heart.
