In the two World Cup qualifiers, Spain won one and draw one - at home they defeated Belgium by Torres and Raul's goals 2-0, but were unexpectedly tied by the weak Lithuania 0-0 in the away game. Although they ranked first in the group with two wins and one draw in three games, they were tied away, but they encountered a trust crisis for the first time.

"Now the Spanish national team is in a period of renewal, and it is normal for unstable results. Since I want to form a younger Spanish national team, it is worth it. I will never stop building a younger national team that can maintain a longer peak state. If the results are not good, then I will bear all the responsibility. As for anything that happens during this period, I will not take any evaluation to heart."

Aragones showed his tough side, and Jose also wrote an article to express his support for Aragones: "Since ancient times, revolution has meant bloodshed, and progress will be temporarily setbacked. However, as long as you firmly believe that your direction is right, you need to go firmly. If you take two steps in one direction and change the direction when you are setbacked, then no matter how much time you go, you will only be on the spot. Mr. Aragones has rich experience and knows how to build a competitive team. However, all this takes time, and Mr. Aragones should also be given time."

Jose's words resonated with many coaches - so-called harm to things. What the coaches fear most is that they don't have enough time to form a team. Building a team is not about installing a model, it can be installed in a few strokes, and the machine has a running-in period...

After two national team games, Mallorca's internationals returned to the club and prepared for the next game.

For Mallorca, this national team game is a great harvest. The eleven players selected for the national team are basically the main players of each national team. In Spain, Mathias has become the absolute main player. Torres has also failed to play as the main player when Morientes is unable to play as the main player. Tristan has recovered in moderation and Luke's limited strength. Although Alonso and Iniesta are not absolute main players, Iniesta has become Joaquin's first substitute on the right. His versatile characteristics also allow him to occupy a place in the midfield. Any head coach likes such a player. After all, bringing Iniesta is equivalent to giving left and right wingers, and there are one candidates in the left and right front guards and organizational midfield positions.

On the contrary, Mallorca's old Spanish international Alonso is now a bit awkward. In the position of the back midfield, Baraja and Alberda have the advantage of tacit cooperation between the same club, and in the position of the back organization, Xavi and Alonso are also competing with each other, so Alonso cannot guarantee the position of the main player, but as long as he performs well, it is not a big problem to be selected for the national team.

In these two games, Mathias and Torres played two games, Alonso and Iniesta both got the chance to play as a substitute. Among other international players, Klose played two games. Although he performed averagely in the previous national team games, he was still the first choice on the front line. Ram played one game and only played half in the other game; Kaka played two games, Macon played only the substitute Cafu in the second game, and Cameni was also the absolute main player of Cameroon, starting both games, Mex played one game, and Sissoko played two benches in the Mali national team...

Perhaps because of the reason why he played too much in the national team, Mallorca's main players performed averagely in the next league game. Mallorca was tied 1-1 by Villarreal at home. Uruguayan scorer Fran, who transferred to Villarreal this summer, used a world wave outside the penalty area to score for Villarreal. Mallorca did not equalize the score until the second half by Mattias in the melee in front of the goal, stopping his winning streak.

Seeing Mallorca's players look very tired during the game, especially two Brazilian internationals Kaka and Macon. They flew from Spain to Brazil within a dozen days, and then played two games before flying back. Iron Man felt tired.

So Jose simply rotated a considerable number of main players in the next Champions League game. Both fullbacks were replaced by substitutes, and central defender Mex also rested with Nadal. Kaka and Iniesta both took the bench in the midfield, and Puerta and Médeta replaced them. Van Persie made his first appearance for Mallorca on the forward line and partnered with Klose on the front line.

Mallorca, who replaced more than half of the main players, performed quite well at home. In the 57th minute of the game, it was Van Persie who made a cross from Puerta on the street in the penalty area and immediately shot and broke through the opponent's goal. Relying on this gold-like goal, Mallorca, who was at home, defeated Dynamo Kiev 1-0 and won three consecutive victories in the Champions League group stage!

Roma, who thought it was Mallorca's biggest opponent in the group, had a tragic defeat. They lost to Leverkusen 1-3 away away, ranking lasting at zero points, and Leverkusen tied Dynamo Kiev and ranked second in the group with Kiev. The situation in this group is now quite clear. Mallorca stands out, and Leverkusen and Dynamo Kiev will compete for the second place. As for Roma, although they still have a chance to qualify, it is already very slim - if they can defeat Kiev and Leverkusen in succession in the next three rounds, then Mallorca will help them defeat Kiev and Leverkusen, and then lose to them in the last round - how can this be a good thing!

So even Roma had no hope. Volar resigned because of his poor results. He only coached Roma for more than a month. The new head coach is Deléri. It is worth mentioning that he is already the third head coach of Roma this season. The first one was Plandelli. As a result, Comrade Plandelli resigned because his wife was sick. Volar took office on the front line. This is also one of the reasons why he has poor results in leading the team. No one knows what Deléri can do now...

Unlike Roma's hardship, Mallorca's main players recovered after getting enough rest. In the next eighth round of the league, they changed their sluggish state in the previous round and used their full-court offense to make Real Sociedad, who was fighting at home, run away. Although Carpin and Oscar each scored one goal in the first and second half, Mallorca scored two goals in the first and second half - Torres Klose scored both goals, Kaka and Iniesta each contributed a beautiful long shot. Mallorca defeated Real Sociedad four-two away and remained unbeaten this season.

But what's interesting is that in eight rounds of the league this season, four homes and four aways, Mallorca's away results are better than home games - they were tied by Real Madrid and Villarreal at home, but only tied Albacete away games, which contrasted with their home results before - Jose also explained that most teams have never thought of winning after coming to the San Mois Stadium, so they basically focus on defending their defensiveness, and at their home court, they still want to have some ambitions. However, Mallorca is not afraid of the opponent coming out to attack him at all. Barcelona has been beaten by them as a sieve, let alone other teams - however, facing the Iron Barrel, it will be a headache for a team - it just happened that Mallorca's only game away was tied by Albacete who was defending!

"This can only prove that we are getting stronger and stronger now. Most teams have lost the courage to attack with us after coming to our home court. Don't worry, this situation will gradually improve. If we get used to facing the iron barrel formation, our offense will become sharper."

Jose remained optimistic enough during the team's training.

After defeating Real Sociedad away, Mallorca ushered in the first round of the Cup of Kings this season, challenging Vallecano, who is in the Spanish Second Division away...

Jose's first game of coaching the professional team was against Vallecano. At that time, Vallecano ranked third in the league, which was in full swing, while Mallorca was infinitely close to relegation. However, five years later, Vallecano had fallen into the Spanish Second Division and never came back, but Mallorca became the first triple champion in the Spanish team...

This made Theresa, the Iron Lady Chairman of Vallecano, feel deeply moved when she saw Old Alemani in the private room.

Compared with Alemani, who is already in his early fifties but not much changes compared to five years ago, and looks red because everything is satisfactory, Teresa, who is now 69 years old, is beginning to look older. In fact, the female chairman has planned to retire after the end of this season. She is nearly seventy years old and is no longer suitable for dealing with front-line affairs.

"Mr. Alemane, I remember the first time I saw Jose on the sidelines, I also said to see if this little guy can surprise us... Now it seems that my words at that time were so rude. He not only surprised me, but also surprised the whole of Spain!" Teresa said with a sigh.

Alemani laughed, no one was more proud of Jose than him: "Yes, Jose is indeed a young man worthy of being proud of me... At least I can announce loudly that I will not be ashamed of working for my son!"

"If one of my three sons had one of Jose's outstanding performance, I would have retired long ago." Teresa sighed and shook her head: "Now I still have my old bones supporting the club..."

But Alemani was not comfortable with comforting this, after all, every family has difficult sutras...

Although Alemani sympathized with this senior, Jose would not be ruthless about this game. Although Jose only brought 16 players (the roster registration for Spain's Cup RE is 16) players, Mallorca is still not something that Vallecano can resist - you should know that in the Spanish Second Division, Mallorca's second team is now ranked higher than Vallecano!

Jose sent Roa, Campano, Romero, Campo, Nadal, Sissoko, Farinos, Mendeta, Puerta, Van Persie and Gu Isa, but he still swept Vallecano with a big score of 5-2. Van Persie performed a hat trick in the game, Gu Isa added icing on the cake, Mendeta scored the first official goal after joining Mallorca, and Mallorca easily advanced to the second round!

"Sorry, Madame Theresa, this kid Jose is too good at being a human being..." Alemani said to Theresa awkwardly.

"Oh, this is nothing. We are not suitable to play in the King's Cup for too long. After all, we still have to strive to enter the La Liga next season." Teresa was quite open-minded.
