Chapter 675 Returning to Madrid
Chapter 675 Returning to Madrid
Not long ago, Real Madrid fans warmly welcomed Li Yi to lead Leeds United to Madrid, but at that time Leeds United was the opponent of Atletico Madrid. A few months later, Li Yi and his Leeds United came to Madrid again, but this time, he became the opponent of Real Madrid.
He gloated, and when Li Yi led Leeds United out of the Madrid airport, half of the city in Madrid was depressed, and half of the city was gloating.
Although Real Madrid fans welcomed Li Yi to come to Madrid again, they didn't want to be the team's enemy. What they wanted was to be Real Madrid's new head coach.
Speaking of the new head coach, it is said that this contest is not only the story of Li Yi and Real Madrid, but also the grievances between Li Yi and Real Madrid head coach Juan Delamos.
Before coaching Real Madrid, Juan Delamos was the head coach of Tottenham, but Juan Delamos was fired after Tottenham's game with Leeds United.
As the saying goes, it is a blessing in disguise, but no one knows that Juan Delamos, who has not left Tottenham for a long time, will enter Real Madrid.
"I think Juande should thank me, otherwise I don't think he can become the head coach of Real Madrid now." During the pre-match interview, Li Yi said with a face full of credit.
When the media passed on Li Yi's words to Juan Delamos, the Spanish head coach was immediately enraged, and even turned black on the spot. It was so ugly.
Well, Li Yi's goal has been achieved. Although Real Madrid has various problems now, the player's personal ability is beyond doubt.
Of course, there is no doubt about the personal ability of the players, but not necessarily the head coach. Although Real Madrid is not as star-studded as before, even so, Juan Delamos cannot be suppressed, otherwise Real Madrid would not be so miserable.
At present, Guardiola leads Barcelona in La Liga, which can be said to be the best. This season's La Liga can also be said to be the least suspenseful season in recent years.
There is no suspense in the league, and there is nothing to watch, but this upcoming Champions League knockout match is full of highlights. Real Madrid's previous feats helped Real Madrid win the Triple Crown. The head coach of the tenth Champions League trophy came to Madrid as Real Madrid's enemy.
Li Yi is not the head coach who has won the most championships among the outgoing head coaches of Real Madrid, but Li Yi's significance to Real Madrid is definitely at the forefront.
The first Triple Crown in La Liga and the tenth trophy in the UEFA Champions League were perfect. In addition, Li Yi also made the Galaxy Battleships into a team, allowing this superstar-studded but conflicted and collapsed team to show the true level and demeanor it should have.
In the hearts of Real Madrid fans, Li Yi is the most suitable head coach for Real Madrid, especially after these years, they firmly believe that if Calderon hadn't driven Li Yi away at that time, maybe Real Madrid is now ruling La Liga and establishing a new dynasty.
But there are no ifs in this world. It is impossible for Li Yi to return to Real Madrid. He is now the head coach of Leeds United, and the Real Madrid team does not know that the real owner of Leeds United is Li Yi.
In fact, the reason why Real Madrid fans miss Li Yi so much is because of Real Madrid's unbearable situation these years. If Real Madrid can still notify La Liga after Li Yi leaves, and even win the Champions League, maybe Real Madrid fans will not miss Li Yi so much.
Of course, for some people, it is not necessarily a bad thing for Real Madrid fans to miss Li Yi so much, such as Florentino who is recovering.
Calderon can be said to be battered now, and Florentino has contributed a lot to this. Now, if Real Madrid is eliminated from the Champions League, it will undoubtedly make matters worse.
Therefore, Florentino can be said to be one of the few people who is looking forward to Li Yi's arrival, except for Atletico Madrid fans, although Florentino has no good intentions.
But to be honest, Li Yi was Florentino's lucky star. When the team was on the verge of collapse, Li Yi not only stabilized Real Madrid, but also brought Real Madrid the triple crown, allowing him to respond calmly.
This season, when he decided to make a comeback, Li Yi showed up in time to pour Calderon on fire, and now he even came to help him.
Of course, this has a major premise, that is, Li Yi can lead Leeds United to eliminate Real Madrid, and with the current performances of the two sides in the league, Li Yi's Leeds United will undoubtedly have a much higher chance of winning.
This is also the reason why Real Madrid fans are unwilling to face Li Yi. They don't want their past exploits to eliminate their beloved team in person. This is simply killing each other.
However, no matter how unwilling the fans were, the arrival of Li Yi and Leeds United was inevitable, and with Li Yi's arrival, the game was about to begin.
In fact, this is not the first time Li Yi has been a guest at the Bernabeu. When Li Yi was still in Cagliari, he played against Real Madrid in the Champions League. It can even be said that there were Real Madrid's bones on the way Li Yi led Cagliari to the top of Europe.
Moreover, Li Yi at that time directly "killed" Real Madrid coach Camacho, bringing his title of "peer killer" to other European leagues for the first time.
So this is Li Yi's second time as a guest at the Bernabéu, and this point was reminded by the media. Some people are not calm about this memory.
Because the current Leeds United is so similar to the former Cagliari team. They are not traditional giants and strong teams.
Franck Ribery is now the core of Bayern Munich, Milito is the leading striker of Inter Milan, Maicon is faintly known as the world's number one right back, Montolivo has become the core of Fiorentina's midfielder, Chiellini has become the cornerstone of Juventus' defense, and Petr Cech is still one of the best goalkeepers in today's football.
Except for a few players who stayed in the team, those who left were the main force and even the core of their respective teams. Now looking back at the former Cagliari team, it is full of stars.
Cagliari fans are undoubtedly happy because they used to have so many outstanding players, but at the same time they are also unfortunate because most of them no longer belong to Cagliari.
But one thing will never change, that is, stories about Li Yi are still circulating in Cagliari, and Bruce Li Yi is still the greatest head coach in Cagliari history.
Even now, Cagliari people still pay attention to Li Yi, support Li Yi, and even feel happy and proud of Li Yi's achievements, but what makes Cagliari fans a little sad is that Li Yi never came back after leaving Cagliari.
