Chapter 158 Mourinho's Dismissal

【Intimidation】, as the name suggests, creates a certain sense of pressure on the opposing players.

Its main function should be to influence the other party's state.

Li Yanqing could only define this skill in this way for the time being.

We'll know the specific effects after it's been used a few times.

Just like [Offensive Inspiration], you won't notice the side effects of this skill unless you use it a few times.

"Congratulations, Burton's performance surprised me."

"It seems it's time for me to make some changes."

Mourinho smiled and gave Li Yanqing a hug.

The game was lost, but it had little to do with his tactical arrangements.

Previously, when playing under his instructions, Manchester United had the upper hand.

"Joseph, to be honest, I'm a little worried about you now."

"Your attitude makes me think you're going to resign any second now..."

This was Li Yanqing's only concern after winning the match.

"Resign?"

"No, I won't."

"Li, I must say that I have changed a lot since I met you so long ago."

"Before you can get the team on your side, you have to get the club's management on your side."

“San Dezi won’t support me, but that’s okay. I’ll use the penalty for breach of contract to compensate myself this time.”

"I can't put up with this for so long for no reason."

Mourinho has made it clear that Woodward is prepared to remove him from office.

"What happens after that?"

"Take a good rest..."

The conversation between the two did not last long, as the players had already left the field and were now preparing for the post-match press conference.

Actually, there wasn't much to prepare; Li Yanqing was used to it by now.

They can rattle off all sorts of clichés without hesitation.

What's surprising is Mourinho.

Since joining Manchester United, he seems to have become much more restrained, no longer the person who liked to offend the media and referees.

But today, people are seeing the same fearless José Mourinho they once knew.

“Pogba didn’t listen to my instructions; he acted like the head coach.”

"It was his own decision that led to the loss."

"As for why he has such audacity, you can ask Mr. Woodward."

"No one can manage Manchester United well if they don't sell him..."

He sat there with a very composed demeanor and poured out his grievances to the media for half an hour.

This is undoubtedly the kind of interview journalists dream of.

In fact, the only thing Mourinho was certain about was Pogba's actions on the field; he didn't say anything else.

But they also openly and covertly targeted Woodward.

The meaning is simple: go ahead and harass him. That's all I can say.

Compared to the dull old man he used to be, he has now completely let loose.

As for Mr. Woodward...

He didn't initially think losing was a serious matter; at most, it was just a little embarrassing.

Mourinho's comments at the post-match press conference dealt him a heavy blow.

Then, his phone was bombarded with calls from reporters.

He had already fled back to his office, where he found everything he could smash and smashed it to pieces.

"asshole!"

"I paid him to be the head coach!"

"This is the most magnificent family in the world!"

"How dare he do this!"

How could he do this?

Based on Woodward's understanding of Mourinho, the latter is the kind of person who won't openly express his grievances.

That's why he's become increasingly reckless in certain matters over the past two years.

But when the latter started to retaliate with sharp words, he was left somewhat at a loss.

He didn't know how much time had passed before he calmed down.

After glancing at the messy office, I found the phone that had been smashed in two.

Then I became even more depressed.

"Hey you at the door! Contact some staff."

"Announce Mourinho's dismissal."

"I don't want to see him again."

Not even for a second!

......

It must be said that they are very efficient in this regard.

The following day, Manchester United officially announced Mourinho's dismissal, with the assistant coach temporarily taking over as manager.

Mourinho said nothing this time; he had already said everything he needed to say yesterday.

"He's finished class, Li."

"Is it because you lost that game yesterday?"

Chris knew Mourinho wasn't having an easy time, but he didn't know that the man was already at odds with the management.

"That was just the fuse."

"The main reason is that neither side has the patience left."

"Actually, their goals were not the same to begin with, which is normal."

Li Yanqing admitted that he was somewhat involved in the matter, but it was definitely not the main reason.

The long-suppressed conflicts just happened to be triggered at this particular time.

"Compared to there, being able to stay in Burton is actually a lucky thing."

"At least everyone's goal is the same."

"This is another reminder for us, Chris."

"Why don't you go and talk to Robinson?"

“No need to talk anymore, he’s already placed a huge bet on you.” Chris shook his head. In any other club, Li Yanqing would never have achieved his current status.

Robinson was already a very enlightened boss.

Instead of thinking about that, you should think about what to do next.

"How can we maintain our current ranking...?"

They were previously in fifth place, but after winning this game, they have moved up to fourth.

"Hold on?"

"That's a bit difficult..."

Even if the team performs well, Li Yanqing does not believe that Burton can qualify for the Champions League this season.

Their win was somewhat coincidental.

Clubs like Manchester United, whose performance is so inconsistent, are rare, not to mention the big clubs, even among ordinary Premier League clubs.

Coincidentally, Burton is currently quite unstable.

If they perform well, they can go toe-to-toe with Manchester City; if they perform poorly, they might lose a few games even against the bottom-ranked teams.

To achieve good results in the league, stability is one of the essential elements.

What he should really be thinking about is how to make the team's performance more consistent...
