Super Marshal

Not only Gao Han, but everyone on the Chelsea bus was surprised by this sudden change. They all realized that the problem seemed serious and had some ominous premonitions.

Rijkaard, in particular, stood up from his seat.

"What are they doing?" Gao Han was not far from the bus and had a panoramic view of the scene.

Greenwald kept shaking his head, and he also felt confused.

I saw Peter Kenyon coming under the bus, asking the driver to open the door, and then walked directly on.

In the carriage, all the Chelsea players stared blankly at Peter Kenyon who came up. Most of them had expressions of disbelief on their faces, but some people noticed that something was wrong and put on their faces. A gloating smile.

Anelka for example.

He was not entrusted with an important task by Rijkaard in this game, and he was very dissatisfied with it. He felt that he was more worthy of a starting spot than Drogba and Arshavin, but in the end he could only be on the bench. Sitting for a full ninety minutes.

The carriage became silent, and many people didn't even dare to speak out, just looking at Peter Kenyon.

After Chelsea's CEO got on the bus, he hesitated at first when facing Rijkaard, who was sitting in the front row, but then shook his head, "I'm sorry, Frank, I... I need to announce something."

After hearing this sentence, everyone realized what was going on.

Captain John Terry stood up first, "Peter, as the captain of the team, I think now is not a good time."

"Yes, Mr. Kenyon." Lampard also stood up.

It was obvious that they both knew exactly what was going to happen.

As players, many times, many things are beyond their control or even their influence.

But in this place and this situation, is it appropriate to do this kind of thing?

"I..." Peter Kenyon himself is also a veteran in the football industry. He used to work in the Nike football department, then came to Manchester United, and then to Chelsea. He knows how the rules of professional football should be played.

It definitely does not include what he is going to do now, but...

"I'm sorry, everyone," Peter Kenyon said through gritted teeth.

Rijkaard snorted twice, smiled contemptuously, nodded and said: "It's okay, just tell me."

His neither humble nor arrogant appearance actually made Peter Kenyon feel a little ashamed.

"The boss and the board of directors are very grateful to Mr. Rijkaard for his contributions and achievements over the past two years..."

When Peter Kenyon said this, he had to pause and calm down.

"However, it is a pity that the team's performance this season has been significantly lower than expected, especially in this past game. Both the boss and the management believe that someone must take responsibility for the team's sluggish performance, and the team We must also make timely changes and adjustments before the second round.”

Although everyone in the carriage was well prepared, they were still stunned and couldn't believe it.

"Now is the right time to make a change, so the owners and management have unanimously decided that from now on, Mr Rijkaard will no longer be the head coach of the team."

Peter Kenyon's every word echoed inside and outside the car. Not only the players in the car, but also Gao Han and Greenwald outside the car were dumbfounded.

Everyone couldn't even hear the string of pleasantries after Peter Kenyon, and only an extremely cruel reality came to mind: Rijkaard was dismissed!

It's hard to say whether this was the right decision, but it was definitely a ridiculous move.

After the game, in the team bus, in front of all the players, he ruthlessly announced that the head coach was dismissed. This is a great shame and humiliation for anyone.

This is not only a shame for Rijkaard, but also a shame for professional coaches across Europe!

I am afraid that few people can completely listen to everything Peter Kenyon said, but after he finished speaking, Rijkaard twitched the corners of his mouth, as if he wanted to say something, but said nothing. Not coming out.

Finally, Black Swan turned around, glanced at the players in the car, left an extremely bitter smile, turned around and walked off the bus, obviously accepting his fate.

After he got off the bus, he saw Gao Han nearby and walked over.

"Unfortunately, Mr. Gao Han, I can't go to the Allianz Arena to drink with you." Rijkaard smiled softly.

Gao Han nodded and nodded with a smile, "It's okay. If you are willing, give me a call anytime in the future."

"Okay." Rijkaard's eyes turned red, obviously understanding what Gao Han meant, "I'm leaving first."

That last sentence was so feeble and helpless.

He was the top superstar in European football in the past, and he was also the most popular top coach in European football. But at this moment, in front of ruthless capital, he was ruthlessly teased and humiliated.

In the carriage, Chelsea players watched Rijkaard leave.

"You will definitely regret what happened tonight." John Terry shouted in a deep voice.

Lampard also stared at Peter Kenyon hatefully and did not take his eyes back for a long time.

Yes, they don't object to firing Rijkaard, and it's not something they can object to, but shouldn't they have the most basic respect? After all, he is also the head coach of Chelsea and a famous European coach. Shouldn't he give the other party some respect and leave some face to the other party?

Does it have to be so tense?

Why must he be dismissed from get out of class in front of everyone?

Can't you wait until you go back tonight?

Knowing that he was in the wrong, Peter Kenyon lowered his head, turned around and walked off the bus.

In fact, he had already expressed his opinion to Abramovich just now, hoping to save some face for Rijkaard. Even if he had to dismiss him from get out of class, he could wait until he led the team to leave, and then proceed privately. It would be no problem to call him down below, or contact him through his agent, and then announce it through the official website.

This is how most European professional footballers fire a head coach.

But if you fire someone face to face, especially in the team bus, in front of all the players, it will be a complete loss of face. Although it makes Rijkaard lose face, how about Chelsea themselves?

Today, Chelsea can treat Rijkaard like this, but what about tomorrow?

It's easy to take this breath, but what will happen to Chelsea's status in the minds of the head coaches across European football?

How would even the club's players view the club's approach?

But Abramovich was angry and insisted on having his own way. He would never let Rijkaard stay until tomorrow. get out of class must be dismissed tonight.

Peter Kenyon really had no choice but to go to the parking lot, stop the team bus, and announce the decision on the spot, and everyone's reaction was basically what he expected.

When Peter Kenyon got off the bus, he waved to the driver without looking back, indicating that they could leave. When he raised his head again, he saw Gao Han and Greenwald standing in front of him. far away.

Obviously, everything that happened just now was seen by them.

"Is this necessary?" Gao Han asked in a deep voice.

Peter Kenyon had nothing to say and even turned his head, not daring to look directly at Gao Han.

European football has European football rules, and Chelsea's approach obviously broke the rules.

Abramovich is happy now, but there are still many troubles to come.

"You have never truly respected football and never abided by the rules of football. You have money and capital, but this does not mean that you can have everything and despise everything."

Gao Han stared at Peter Kenyon with his eyes, and he was really angry.

Not just for Rijkaard, but also for myself back then.

He has never forgotten how Chelsea framed him back then, and now, they have done such a thing to Rijkaard. How can he bear it?

"Professional football has professional football rules. You know this better than I do. You treated me that way back then, and you treat Rijkaard this way today. What about tomorrow? What about the day after tomorrow?"

When Gao Han said this, he suddenly sneered and shouted word by word: "You will definitely pay the price, and it must be the most painful price!"

After finishing speaking, Gao Han walked towards the Bayern Munich bus without looking back.

Not long after, the bus turned around and drove away.

Peter Kenyon stood in the deserted parking lot, Gao Han's words seemed to still be lingering in his ears.

Perhaps, after tonight, it will be difficult for Chelsea to attract well-known European coaches to coach. Unless they are forced to do so, there will be no more famous coaches to take over Chelsea.

The name of the Blues will be completely ruined with the departure of Rijkaard.

…………

…………

In the early hours of the morning, Chelsea's official website announced the news of head coach Frank Rijkaard's dismissal.

The statement first expressed gratitude to Rijkaard, and then explained that the team's poor performance did not meet the expectations of fans and management, so it was finally decided to dismiss Rijkaard.

At the end of the statement, Chelsea officially announced that the team has officially launched the coaching selection process and will select an excellent head coach to lead the team as soon as possible. During this period, assistant coach Wilkins will lead the team to participate in the game.

Although it was in the middle of the night, Chelsea's sudden statement still caused a huge response throughout European football. Everyone thought it was because Rijkaard's team lost 3-0 to Bayern Munich at home.

Dismissal after a disastrous defeat is nothing new in the cruel European football world.

But what really aroused everyone's anger was the long report by Guardian reporter Greenwald the next day.

In this report, Greenwald described what he witnessed in the parking lot, and even included a few photos to increase his persuasiveness.

Through this report, everyone was shocked to find that Abramovich humiliated Rijkaard in such a brutal way, which is simply unacceptable.

Not only ordinary fans, not only professional coaches, but even Chelsea fans were angered by the management's approach.

So tasteless!

There is nothing gentlemanly about firing your head coach in this way. It can even be said to be barbaric and rude.

At the end of Greenwald's report, Gao Han's interview was also specially recorded.

Gao Han said that seeing this scene with his own eyes made him feel extremely angry. It not only humiliated Rijkaard, but also humiliated all professional coaches, and it also humiliated professional football.

"I have never been as angry as tonight!" Gao Han said through gritted teeth.

"I don't know who else would be willing to coach a team like this after what happened tonight. At least, I definitely wouldn't."

Today's Gao Han is no longer the Gao Han he was in 2004. Now, his words can attract the attention of the entire European football world.

What's more, Chelsea has indeed gone too far in this matter.

So in just one day, many famous coaches in Europe came forward to publicly support Gao Han and accuse Chelsea of ​​their barbaric behavior. Many die-hard Chelsea fans even made a special trip to Stamford Bridge to protest.

And everyone's goal is very clear, to point the finger directly at the man behind the scenes, Abramovich.
