After a day of silence, Mourinho finally spoke to the media and was interviewed by AS in his office at Real Madrid's Valdebebas Sports City.
"AS" and "Marca" are both Real Madrid's mouthpiece media. Although they cannot reach the point where the "Queen Media" obeys every order, they do have close cooperation with Real Madrid.
"AS" came forward and was in Sports City, which means that Mourinho's interview was instructed by Real Madrid's senior management and arranged by the club chairman. Therefore, it is obvious that Mourinho and Lafayette had
Already communicated.
Although the content of their conversation is unknown, since Mourinho could follow Lafayette's arrangements instead of asking the media to open fire outside without authorization, Lafayette must have been comforted and Mourinho also chose to tolerate it.
Sure enough, in an exclusive interview with AS, Mourinho talked more about the just-defeated derby from a technical and tactical perspective. As always, he attributed the main reason to the referee Prieto's whistle being soft and blamed the players in the game.
The penalty is very unfair to Real Madrid.
Mourinho emphasized that in the first half of the game, Kaka was violated by Godin in the penalty area, and in the second half, Benzema was kicked down by Miranda. The referee did not award a penalty kick, as well as Costa, Falcao, Massu and others.
Several fouls were enough to warrant a red card, but Prieto let them off lightly.
Moreover, Mourinho was very stubborn and clearly expressed his dissatisfaction with the defeat. Unlike the players, he gave a fair evaluation of Atletico Madrid, which is now different from its past. It is not shameful to admit that the opponent is good.
Mourinho insists that Atletico Madrid just got lucky. Simeone's team is not on the same level as Real Madrid. It won for the first time in 13 years, but Atletico Madrid won the lottery.
Mourinho also sarcastically said: "Atletico Madrid only has eyes for Real Madrid, but Real Madrid has its eyes on all of Europe and the world. Simeone's team was ecstatic because they defeated Real Madrid, as if they had won the whole world."
. But for Real Madrid, victory is just normal, something we are accustomed to. In the past thirteen years, Real Madrid's victory over Atletico Madrid is no different from defeating other teams in the eyes of Real Madrid people."
Of course, if you completely avoid sensitive topics, it will appear to be a cover-up. Mourinho also talked about the issues of starting games and substitutions that everyone is staring at.
He said: "Letting Zhuoyang play as a substitute is purely for tactical reasons. It is not as complicated as the outside world thinks. Zhuoyang is a very good player and is very important to Real Madrid. I believe Atletico Madrid will have many tactical arrangements for his starting lineup.
.I made this arrangement just to defeat Atletico Madrid’s tactical defense.”
Whether you believe it or not, I don’t believe it anyway.
"Although it turns out that this arrangement did not have the expected effect, well... it did not completely work. But after Zhuoyang came on the bench, we still caught Atletico Madrid off guard. From this point of view, I
The arrangement cannot be said to have failed, it can only be half-to-half, 50% successful."
It’s a forced explanation full of loopholes, but fortunately today’s reporters were warned in advance and would not argue with Mourinho.
"I am the head coach, and I know very well that Kaka performed well in that game. But when we were 0:2 behind, the team had to strengthen the center without losing the side attack, so I had no choice but to replace him.
It was purely a tactical consideration and in that situation it was the only option."
The reporter of "Marca" was determined not to argue with Mourinho, but faithfully recorded his preface and incompatible remarks.
Mourinho said: "I think everyone has forgotten the most important point: I am the head coach of the team, I have the absolute power to make substitutions during the game, and I do not need to give any explanation to anyone. This is football.
It’s common sense and the most basic principle that every team must follow.”
Mourinho is still Mourinho, and his edge has been revealed inadvertently.
"I have no problem with the players. I understand their thoughts, and similarly, the players will understand my decision. Although Real Madrid is only third in the league, we are already on the right track."
Mourinho likes to put his credit clearly and then keep reminding him. "Last season we won the La Liga championship and overthrew Barcelona's dominance for the first time in four seasons. I think this is the meaning of Real Madrid asking me to coach. And Real Madrid
We also did well in the Champions League last season and we reached the semi-finals."
"Under my leadership, Real Madrid broke the curse of the 'Champions League Top 16'. What my predecessors failed to do in eight years, I did. All of this is the meaning of Real Madrid inviting me here."
"I am a Triple Crown coach and have achieved great success in Portugal, England and Italy, as well as in Spain. Therefore, a defeat in one game cannot knock me down, nor can it knock down Real Madrid. We should all pay tribute to
Look ahead.”
Mourinho said: "Real Madrid is the best club in the world and I, Jose Mourinho, am the best football coach in the world."
Regarding the rumors between him and Manchester City, Mourinho said: "I will not comment on my agent Mendes, nor the Manchester City club, nor anything that has not happened. I am now the head coach of Real Madrid
"I still have two years of contract at Real Madrid. I like my job at Real Madrid very much and the club is very satisfied with my work. I don't see the point of talking about things that haven't happened now."
Generally speaking, Mourinho has been using Tai Chi to push forward the current affairs. It seems that he has talked about everything, but in fact he has said nothing.
On this day, Real Madrid Chairman Florentino once again talked to several heavyweight players in the team. In the conversation with Zhuo Yang, Zhuo Yang bluntly expressed his confusion.
"Uncle Fu, of course it's not that I can't play as a substitute. I've played as a substitute in Fort Madi, Milan, Barcelona, ​​and even in the Chinese national team, and there were quite a few games. But it's never been like this time. There's no explanation. This
It puzzles me."
What can Lafayette say? Mourinho threw a lot of complaints at him. He couldn't say many things to Zhuoyang, otherwise it would intensify the conflict and turn into a rumor.
In fact, Lafayette cannot interfere with Mourinho's hiring decisions. Unlike Berlusconi and Moratti, Real Madrid has always been very particular about this. The only criterion for measuring the work of a head coach is performance. Capet was
Luo pushed Beckham, who has the highest commercial value in the world, to the bench, and Lafayette did not intervene.
Therefore, Lafayette cannot interfere with Mourinho's use of Kaka, although he knows that this is the sticking point between Mourinho and Zhuo Yang, and he also hopes that Kakado will appear in the starting game, so as to achieve a higher level for Real Madrid.
commercial value, but he still cannot forcibly interfere.
Lafayette said to Zhuoyang: No matter what, it must stop before the end of the year, and no one should make any more troubles. Because a very important task before the end of the year is that Zhuoyang's competition for the 2012 FIFA Ballon d'Or cannot be affected.
.
Once again, the turmoil was temporarily suppressed. Mourinho and the players no longer had normal business in the locker room, except for the training and tactical arrangements. There was no unnecessary word.
