In the UK, newspapers are mainly divided into two categories: serious and inappropriate. This article was first published by...

Serious are traditional British newspapers such as the Times, the Guardian and the Independent. These newspapers are generally extensive, have a wide range of content, and have a relatively standardized language. But those who are not serious are actually the so-called British tabloids that people are most familiar with. The more famous ones are the Sun and the Daily Mirror. The short and concise language is the characteristic of these tabloids, but at the same time, the content is definitely not serious, and sensation is their pursuit. Therefore, it is common for these newspapers to issue an apology letter because of a report.

However, compared with Spanish newspapers with serious bias, British newspapers are generally relatively neutral in football reporting. The ones that are biased are often those column commentators. Although every newspaper will make notes on the sentence "only represent personal remarks and have nothing to do with the views held by our newspaper", if they really make the other side angry, the newspaper will not be able to get rid of it. Of course, newspapers are also relatively neutral. Some newspapers with strong colors are understandable to have some bias. For example, the Manchester Evening News, if Manchester United profits in the game against Liverpool, you can't expect them to blame Manchester United.

It is worth mentioning that as the largest local newspaper in the UK, the Manchester Evening News treats the two teams in the same city, Manchester United and Manchester City, much more fairer than the Marca treats Real Madrid and Atletico Madrid. At least, whether it is Manchester United or Manchester City, the Manchester Evening News has a reporter who is responsible for it. The person in charge of Manchester United is Bruce Kent, and the person in Manchester City is Wayne Clark.

Today, Wayne Clark came to the press room of the city stadium early because Manchester City will have a press conference that was actually late today. The content of the conference is to introduce Manchester City's new head coach Lin Sen. However, Wayne is not here to compete with many colleagues for the opportunity to ask questions, because according to the cooperation agreement between Manchester Evening News and Manchester City Club, he will have an opportunity to have an exclusive interview, although it will not take too long.

Since Manchester City moved home from Maine Road here, although the place is still a little remote, it has to be admitted that the facilities of the stadium are indeed different from before. From the perspective of reporters, this room alone looks like a university classroom and can accommodate hundreds of journalists, which makes every reporter who comes here feel happy.

At two o'clock in the afternoon, the press conference was held on time. Almost all the media could come, and the press conference was in line with Lin Sen's press conference. The ones attending the press conference were Manchester City's CEO Gary Cook and football director Brian Mawood. Gary Cook made an opening remark and introduced Lin Sen, and by the way he promoted Lin Sen's work in Malaga. When it was Lin Sen's turn, Lin Sen thanked everyone who could thank him, including former club Malaga.

Then, the press conference enters the questioning session.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

In the Ma Bar, the TV screen above the counter is broadcasting the press conference of Manchester City's new head coach. As the reporters on the screen ask Lin Sen one by one questions, fans in the bar also began to talk.

What formation will Manchester City play in the new season, what style will it play, and what signing plans will it have...

The first half of the press conference was a topic of replaying the old tune. Lin Sen's answer to the transfer questions that the media is most concerned about is nothing new. This is not his fault. Although Manchester City's transfer plan has been formulated, the transfer work has not really begun. In order not to affect the upcoming transfer, Lin Sen had to pretend to be deaf and do business.

In the second half of the press conference, the atmosphere finally changed a little, because the reporter's questions began to involve some sensitive topics.

For example, Manchester's inevitable derby, Sir Ferguson said in an interview that he didn't know who Lin Sen was. This was not a friendly remark. When asked this question, the reporter who had already clearly understood Lin Sen's deeds in Spain obviously hoped that Lin Sen could make some surprise responses to them, but Lin Sen's reaction was just a smile, and then replied lightly: Obviously, I can't say that I don't know Ferguson, but I think Ferguson always wants to know me.

Lin Sen's light answer obviously did not satisfy the reporter. A reporter from the Sun added firewood: Manchester United captain Gary Neville thinks you are not worthy of Manchester City. What do you think about this?

Lin Sen looked up at the reporter. When he knew that the other party was from the Sun, Lin Sen remained calm: "I don't think Gary Neville would say such things, but I can answer your question. For me, there is only suitable and inappropriate work, and no worthy. This is a suitable opportunity, so I will sit here now. As for how others think, it is their freedom."

...

This is the "thorny coach" in the eyes of Spanish media? This is not like it at all.

Wayne was a little surprised when he looked at Lin Sen, who was sitting on the stage and facing various questions in the reporters. Since Mourinho left the Premier League, the first thing he felt uncomfortable was not Chelsea fans, but British media. Therefore, many media have great "hope" for Lin Sen, who is very similar to Mourinho in both coaching style and behavior style.

But now, when we first met, there was no "God is the first and I am the second" and no "I am the special one". The Chinese coach in front of us acted as modest and polite as the Chinese in my impression, and it could almost be said that the wind was so light that it was outrageous.

So, when the press conference ended and Wayne finally waited for the opportunity to conduct a face-to-face interview with Lin Sen, his first sentence was: "That's not you, right?"

Wayne didn't know why he asked such a sentence. Maybe in his heart, he was like his peers, and hoped from the bottom of his heart that a person who could break the Premier League situation with his own strength like Mourinho. Look at the current head coaches of the traditional semi-finals in the Premier League, Manchester United's Ferguson, Arsenal's Wenger, Liverpool's Benitez, and Chelsea's Ancelotti. Except for Ferguson's occasional reliance on his qualifications to laugh and scold in front of the media, you can't even find the word "interesting" in them.

Lin Sen looked at the reporter in front of him with interest. He was in his early forties and had a slight baldness. His tone of speaking was in a strong British tone. He knew that the "that" in Wayne's mouth refers to himself at the press conference.

"Why do you ask that?"

"Because Spain. They don't think of you."

"So what do you think I should declare at the press conference just now, or face tit for Ferguson?"

"Uh...I think, at least it shouldn't be like it just now."

"Then you're wrong, Mr. Clark." Linson spread his hands, "No one likes to cause trouble, including me. Today is just a press conference that is actually irrelevant. No matter what I do, it will not affect Manchester City's performance in the new season, nor will it increase my confidence in the new season. So, why bother?"

I see.

Wayne finally understood why Lin Sen is so "abnormal". In the final analysis, the positioning of the press conference between the two sides is completely different. The media regards this press conference as a "declaration of war" for the Premier League in the new season. However, in Lin Sen's eyes, this press conference is irrelevant, so it is insignificant.

Thinking of this, Wayne felt relieved inexplicably, because it at least proved that his judgment of Lin Sen was not all wrong. This time it didn't matter, but what about the next time?

"So, isn't my interview irrelevant?" As soon as he relaxed, Wayne joked.

"No. You are different." Lin Sen smiled and shook his head, then pointed his hand outside and said, "Those people outside. No matter what I say or do, I can't expect them to say anything good for me. I can't even expect them to report my words in truth, but you are different. You are a cooperative reporter for the club. The Manchester Evening News is a newspaper for Manchester. In other words, we have a basis for mutual trust, and I hope I can trust you."

"Of course, Mr. Coach." Wayne said seriously when he heard Lin Sen's words.

"So, now you can ask questions, Wayne."

Realizing the change in Lin Sen's name, Wayne took a deep breath and began to sort out his questions in his mind. Obviously, the public questions at the press conference could not be asked anymore. The questions he wanted to ask must be something that others had not asked, the fans really care about, and Lin Sen could answer.

"Can I ask about the transfer?" Wayne took the lead in quitting, because it was obvious that the transfer was the most concerned thing for fans, but he also knew that Lin Sen was unlikely to disclose the transfer.

"It's better not." Sure enough, Lin Sen shook his head with a smile.

Wayne nodded, without entanglement, and soon asked another question.

"There have been rumors recently that Robinho may leave Manchester City and join Barcelona. In fact, there have been such rumors since January this year. My question is, has Manchester City really received a price question from Barcelona about Robinho? If not, what role will Robinho play in the team in the new season?"

Manchester City's number one star is undoubtedly the most concerned issue for fans.

"There is no offer for Robinho at the moment, at least, as far as I know it is. As for the role, I can only say that Robinho's position may change in the new season, but his position in the team depends on his performance, and all players are the same."

Change of position? Status depends on performance? Wayne's heart moved, what is the difference between this and the direct announcement that Robinho is no longer a privileged player at Manchester City?

"Is this your common decision between you and Robinho?" Wayne soon asked.

Because, if Robinho agreed with what Lin Sen said just now, then of course there is no question, but Lin Sen's answer quickly ruled out this possibility.

"No, in fact, I haven't spoken to him yet."

In other words, this is Lin Sen's decision alone. Can Manchester City Club really support Lin Sen's decision?

This is not what all Manchester City fans are willing to hear, Wayne thought to himself, but this is not the time for him to think about Manchester City fans. Time is limited, so he must hurry up and ask the next question.

Then, the most concerned questions of Manchester City fans were asked, and Lin Sen also answered them one by one until the interview was about to end.

"The last question, Mr. Coach, we all know that Manchester City invested a lot in the transfer market last season, but Manchester City only finished seventh last season. So, what will Manchester City's goal this year?"

"champion!"

Lin Sen's final answer was the same as his previous answer, with a calm expression. (To be continued, please search for Piaotianwen, the novel is better and faster!
