"Have you really thought it through?"

Mendes, who was frowning slightly, spoke.

"I think this is a good challenge." Lin Sen nodded and said slowly.

"Then I respect your decision." Mendes sighed, then smiled bitterly, "But honestly, it's a pity."

Lin Sen also smiled at Mendez's words.

There are many kinds of food in this world, such as sadness, trauma, and tidy... "It's a pity" is already a good one, and it is also in line with the current cooperative relationship between the two. For Mendes, it is probably impossible for any agent to feel sorry for losing a client like Lin Sen, but for Lin Sen, he has lost a partner who has been working for five years.

Of course, Mendes's pity may have another meaning, that is, it is regret that Lin Sen did not continue to be the head coach.

In Mendes' eyes, Lin Sen may not be the best coach in the world, but he is undoubtedly one of the most successful coaches in the world. Not all coaches can reach the top of Europe twice within three years. Even his other important client Mourinho has not been able to do this.

During the past year when Lin Sen was idle, the media had many speculations about Lin Sen. These speculations were true and false. For example, the two Milan heroes? That was a speculation, Paris Saint-Germain? This was true.

In the past few years, Paris Saint-Germain, which Qatar Capital has taken over, has been known as "Ligue 1 Manchester City". This name is not for nothing. Like Manchester City in previous years, they only need a head coach who can help them turn money into honor. Looking at the whole of Europe, who is better than Linson? The French Ligue 1 giants even offered Linson the first annual salary and treatment that even Mendes felt irresistible to resist. Unfortunately, if Linson could accept Paris' invitation at the time, he would not have left Manchester City at all.

But now, Lin Sen finally decided to return, but transformed into a football manager.

"It seems that the next time we meet, we may be our opponent." Mendes said half-jokingly.

"It may also be a partner," Lin Sen said.

"Of course." Mendes laughed, then stretched his body, and his hands were casually placed on the backrests on both sides, saying, "Tell you something interesting. Do you know that ten years ago was almost this time, who was sitting in the position you are now?"

Lin Sen shook his head.

"Abu." Mendes said without leaving any hesitation, and then pointed to the position next to Linsen, "This position is where the Chelsea manager Kenyon was sitting at that time. I was still sitting in this position, and next to me..."

"Murinho," Linson said, thinking about what Mendes said, "This restaurant?"

"That's right." Mendes smiled, "I am friends with the boss here. Now this is the biggest signboard of this restaurant."

"Nothing bad," Lin Sen said after taking a sip of coffee. "At least the coffee here is good. Otherwise, we will be here next time we meet?"

"Okay." Mendes knew Lin Sen was just a joke, so he said, "Just make this point, if that guy dares to collect money today, I will break off his diplomatic relations with him."

The two laughed immediately.

"By the way, since you plan to go to Manchester City, then what are your plans for the next summer transfer?" After the joke, Mendes asked casually.

Originally, Mendes, as the agent, shouldn't have asked, but although Linson planned to become Manchester City's manager, he had not officially taken office, because Mendes' question actually took advantage of a small loophole.

"Not yet." Although Lin Sen knew what he was thinking, he didn't think there was anything he could not say about Mendes' words.

Since a club's transfer work is separated by the football manager and the head coach, even if it is just formal, it must consult the other party's opinions before making a decision. Lin Sen has not had any communication with Pellegrini yet, so naturally he will not have any plans. Of course, after the matter is decided, he will start preparing for this work.

Mendes nodded, not as if Lin Sen's answer was unexpected, and said, "Then, I hope that the next time we meet will be cooperation, not opponents."

"I hope so too."

June 18th.

The entire football world is still immersed in the warm atmosphere of the Brazil World Cup. At this time, Lin Sen, who had been "wanted" by the English media for several days, finally appeared at Manchester Airport. This time, Lin Sen no longer concealed his identity, but appeared in front of the media openly.

However, although Lin Sen's appearance was generous, the media did not find an opportunity to ask him, because he was picked up by a vehicle arranged by Manchester City. Of course, this actually confirmed something.

Linson returns to Manchester City, it is true.

Sure enough, in the afternoon of the same day, Manchester City's official website officially issued an announcement: Former Manchester City meritorious coach Lin Sen officially returned to Manchester City. He will become the team's manager and be mainly responsible for the team's work.

There are thousands of rumors, not as good as the official website's film quotes.

As soon as the news came out, the whole Premier League was in an uproar.

For Manchester City fans, this is undoubtedly good news. In their opinion, the football manager is actually half the coach in a sense. Lin Sen's return will inevitably inject a dose of augmentation agent into the new season for Manchester City, which was slightly declining last season. However, for clubs outside Manchester City, they have different views on Lin Sen's return.

Some people who are accused of being bad, such as Arsenal's head coach Wenger, who believes that Lin Sen's return is a complete failure, especially when returning as a manager, the reason is very simple. No one will simply regard Lin Sen as a manager, and his existence will inevitably put huge pressure on the work of head coach Pellegrini.

There are also concerns. Of course, this concern comes more from itself. Pochettino, who just replaced Boas and became Tottenham's new coach, expressed helplessness to Manchester City in the new season: Manchester City has proved that they are one of the best teams in the Premier League and even in Europe. Lin? I don't think his return will become an obstacle to Manchester City. How could he become an obstacle? Without him, there would be no Manchester City today.

...

"It's not an easy decision. I know what my return will bring. I want to apologize to Pellegrini first because of my factor that may have caused him some unnecessary trouble, but I want to reiterate that when I returned to Manchester City, I have nothing to do with Pellegrini. In fact, in the past season, Pellegrini has done an outstanding job and deserves the trust of the club and the fans..."

Sitting at the familiar press conference, Lin Sen, who had changed his identity, did not change much in his tone. He was used to showing off all the problems directly, and then responded to all the problems head-on, never avoiding them.

"Mr. Lin, do you take over this job? Does this mean you will not be the head coach again?" At the beginning of the question, Thompson, a reporter from the Times, immediately raised his hand to ask a question.

"You never know what will happen next moment." Lin Sen smiled and answered without any hesitation. "This is the true meaning of football. I think this sentence can answer your question."

"So, if..." Thompson seemed to have expected Lin Sen's answer, and a hint of pride flashed in his eyes, "I mean, if, if one day Pellegrini's grades have reached a point where they have to be dismissed, are you likely to take over?"

After asking, Thompson immediately sat down, as if a soldier who threw out a bomb and immediately hid back into the bulletproof crater.

Looking at the venue that suddenly became quiet, Miss Vicky, the press officer in charge of the press conference, immediately realized the trouble of this problem.

Thompson's if, in fact, is a big controversy, because whether Lin Sen answers whether, or not, it is a huge controversy.

If Lin Sen answered that this possibility exists, then Lin Sen's "clarification" just now becomes a piece of paper, because in that case, Lin Sen becomes an existence that may replace Pellegrini at any time, which is inconsistent with his clarification just now. But if the answer does not exist, then he "pleased" Pellegrini, but it also wiped out the glimmer of hope in the hearts of many Manchester City fans...

Vicky glared at Thompson who had just asked, and regretted that he shouldn't have given this thorny question. Just as she was about to find a way to make up for it, Lin Sen spoke on the side.

"There is no ifs on the court." Lin Sen's face was normal, "But I can answer your if."

When they heard Lin Sen's answer in the first half of the sentence, all the reporters were disappointed because they thought Lin Sen finally planned to avoid this question, but Lin Sen's second half made them prick up their ears.

"impossible."

impossible?

"Impossible? You mean that even when Manchester City needs you the most, you won't take over the team?" This time, it was not Thompson, but another reporter. Obviously, Lin Sen's overly straightforward answer made many reporters at the scene feel a little bored.

"Yes." Lin Sen said lightly.

"I won't deny the possibility of becoming a head coach again, but I'm sure if I become a head coach again, I'll coach a team from another country or national team. And now, I'm back in Manchester City because I see a new challenge, not the pressure to become another head coach. If that's the case, I didn't have to leave Manchester City last year. Manchester City fans should trust their coach and look forward, not backward."

"Finally, I can reveal a little more news to you. The new contract I signed with Manchester City has no age. Today's press conference ends here. Thank you for your arrival."
