Chapter 55 The Second Fire
Debola found something wrong with Rongguang today. From the time he went home for dinner, he seemed very silent. This silence was a little different from the silence he had before.
When the team is at its worst, Glory will be silent, but his silence is firm and will make people feel power.
But today, Rong Guang's silence seemed a little confused. His eyes were not focused and he was often in a daze.
After dinner, Rongguang did not push the plate open very neatly, and got up to train, but sat on his chair and stared blankly.
"What's wrong, Rong?" Debola finally asked the question in her heart. "Do you have any worries?"
"Depola...Isn't it meaningless for you to say that I work so hard?"
"Why do you ask this?" Debola was surprised. If she had no fighting spirit, it would be almost impossible to hear it from Rongguang before.
Rongguang did not answer Debola's question, but chose to remain silent.
Seeing that he was like this, Debola was no longer strange, but was worried.
She frowned. Such glory was really wrong. She was still fine when she went out in the morning, but why did she become so depressed when she came back in the evening?
So she changed her seat and sat next to Glory.
"Rong."
She held Glory's arm with both hands.
"Look into my eyes." She looked straight into Glory's eyes.
Glory dodged a little.
"Rare your head up and look at me." Debola ordered.
Rongguang was obedient now.
"Say something to me."
"Uh..." Rong Guang hesitated for a moment and told Deborah the conversation he had with Benitez in the morning at the training base.
"Are I doing this wrong?" Rongguang asked after saying that.
After listening to Rong Guang's story, Debola also fell into deep thought.
She really never thought there was anything wrong with this problem before. Rong Guang worked hard and performed well in the competition - isn't it good?
But after listening to Benitez's words, she did start to think about this issue.
If she can think, it means that what Benitez said makes sense, at least logically understandable.
But she had never thought about this before, which does not mean that what Benitez said was wrong.
After pondering for a while, Debola raised her head and found Rongguang still sitting in front of her, looking at her, waiting for her answer.
"Do you remember how long it has been since you hugged your son well, Rong?" Debola did not answer Rong Guang's question, but asked him a question.
Rongguang was stunned by the question.
"I don't know much about tactical things, but I only know that you are really too nervous recently. It's like a robot that has tightened a clockwork. After the training at the training base every day, I don't think it's a normal state when I get home. Although you worked very hard before, you haven't reached this point, especially after Yaoyao was born."
Debola continued, Rongguang was stunned.
His son Rong Yao was playing with his toys on the floor next to him, babbling in his mouth, saying things no one could understand.
Rongguang turned his attention to it. Yaoyao was very focused and didn't care about the conversation between his father and mother at all.
While playing, he raised the toy in his hand, looked up at Rongguang and Debola, his face showed a happy expression, and his mouth began to sound loudly.
Debola walked over, squatted beside Yaoyao, and clapped her hands with a smile: "Awesome"
After receiving praise from his mother, Yaoyao did not continue to lower his head to play with toys, but looked towards glory with a smile on his face, as if he wanted to get praise from his father.
Looking at the innocent smile on his son's face, a smile appeared on his face, which was originally in a bad mood, and his mood also improved...
Instead of saying "awesome" to his son, he bent down, hugged his son, and then raised him high.
Yaoyao, who was lifted up, giggled happily, and Rongguang hugged him and circled.
The father and son just started playing.
Debola stood up, tied her hair up, and when she saw this scene, she also showed a sincere smile.
※※※
That night, the glory never went to the training ground to practice his free kick, but kept playing with his son in Yaoyao's doll house.
It was not until the child was so sleepy that he wanted to sleep that he hugged Yaoyao and put it in the center of the big bed.
He took off his clothes, changed his pajamas, and covered him with a quilt.
Debola looked at it with a smile from the side.
After doing all this, Rong Guang stood up and looked up and saw Debola's smile.
"I thought about it when I was playing with Yaoyao. Although I didn't want to admit it, the head coach was right. I really didn't trust these teammates in my heart... Maybe it was because others said that Manchester City was too bad, which made me lose trust in them. Maybe it was some other reason... Anyway, I really just want to save the team by myself..."
Debola didn't say anything, but just looked at him with a smile.
Looking at her smile, Rong Guang spread his hands and wanted to say it, but he didn't know what to say. He was stunned for a moment, and then continued: "Anyway, I admit my mistake. Well, I'll remove the burden that does not belong to me. He is the head coach. Then I'll see what means he can use."
Rongguang was still a little dissatisfied.
※※※
The next day, Benitez saw Rongguang practicing free kick alone on the training ground before the whole team started training.
This time Rongguang also saw him, so he stopped his practice and looked at Benitez.
Benitez originally planned to leave quietly, but when Rongguang looked at him, he felt embarrassed to turn around and leave.
So he changed his mind and turned around and walked onto the training ground.
"Good morning, Rong."
"Good morning, boss." Rongguang replied.
Benitez did not hear any fluctuations in his tone from Glory's words.
He was also not sure what Rong Guang was thinking about after hearing what he said yesterday.
Anyway, during yesterday's training, Rongguang was a little absent-minded and looked very worried.
But the other players didn't know what was going on, so it was still very strange...
In Benitez's plan, Glory is definitely the core of the team. This person is very important. If Manchester City wants to achieve good results, Glory must be in good shape - this state is not only a performance on the court, but also a result of his thinking about himself and the team.
If Rongguang cannot recognize his relationship with the team, then his plan cannot be implemented. His plan to transform Manchester City must be centered on Rongguang, so he must first "operate" with him. This is the starting point of his overall plan.
If he cannot successfully get glory, then his plan will be difficult to implement, so no matter what method is used, he must get glory done.
"Don't you mind I'll continue practicing free kicks?" Rong Guang asked.
Benitez shook his head quickly: "No, don't mind..."
Before he finished speaking, Rongguang turned toward the football and started training again
Benitez didn't expect that Rong Guang would do whatever he said, and he was not polite at all...
Seeing Rongguang's decisive back, he smiled bitterly.
I don't know if this is Rong Guang's answer to me.
He seemed a little dissatisfied with himself...
As the core of the team and if you have a bad relationship with the head coach... the future prospects of this team are simply imagined.
He was wondering whether he wanted to talk to Rongguang again.
But looking at Rong Guang's back as he firmly trained, he finally gave up the idea.
Forget it, let's take a look...

Manchester City players have changed their training and win in the training ground waiting for training
Because it is winter and the climate is cold, the players have done well in keeping warm. Except for a pair of eyes that are leaking outside, almost all other places are covered. They are wearing gloves on their hands and trousers on their legs. Even their mouths and noses are blocked by scarves, and they are wearing hats on their heads.
While waiting for the coaches to arrive, everyone gathered together and chatted.
Although the team's performance is not particularly good, the players' moods are not greatly affected - when you accept your fate and find that Manchester City should be the performance, you often won't be anxious or depressed.
Not to mention that from the rankings, Manchester City's current results are better than before - they were ranked 18th in the league and now they are ranked 15th in the league. Finally, they are out of the relegation zone.
The players didn't wait long, and a few minutes later, Benitez appeared on the training ground with assistant coach Mark Bowen.
However, before the training officially began, Benitez had something to say to Manchester City players.
"I have been with the team for more than a week, and my observation of the team has ended. Based on the results I have observed, I have something to say to everyone." Benitez said standing in front of the players.
Everyone looked at each other - this is the first time that Benitez has trained everyone before training after becoming Manchester City's head coach. Before, everyone thought that this new coach didn't like to do this...
"I don't know what you think of the recent results, but judging from your relaxed and pleasant expressions, you look quite satisfied."
As soon as Benitez said this, Manchester City players looked at each other again - what does this mean? No matter how you hear this, it doesn't seem like you are praising us, right?
Instead of looking at Benitez with his teammates, Rongguang looked at Benitez, who wanted to know what Benitez wanted to do.
Coincidentally, Benitez was also looking at him, but he looked away with just one look.
Rongguang was still looking at him, wanting to see how the head coach, who pointed out his deepest problems as soon as he came, would turn the situation around.
"I have no intention of criticizing everyone. I just want to point out the problem. We treat this problem with a calm and objective attitude. This problem is..."
Benitez swept almost all Manchester City players, but he didn't look at the glory again.
He said: "Manchester City's current situation is because you haven't tried your best."
