"Do you know how nervous I was when Rooney took the last shot?"
Chris Casper was walking in the corridor and said to Colin McGee who was beside him.
Maybe he still didn't feel satisfied, so he continued to talk to McGee.
"Fortunately, Cech saved the ball. Do you think his helmet looks very handsome? I wonder if anyone will pay attention to me next time I wear it and sit on the coaching bench."
"I suggest you wear George's motorcycle helmet, it looks better that way."
Obviously, McGee didn't really want to talk to Casper about these things.
The two of them walked and talked like this. Of course, Casper was doing most of the talking, while McGee only said a few words from time to time.
Finally arrived at the door of the conference room.
"Tell me, will the two of us be the first to arrive?"
"Maybe."
This is already the third day after the match between Chelsea and Manchester United.
In that game, Chelsea did not live up to the encouragement and support of the entire Leeds United coaching staff. The result of the game was a 0-0 draw.
When shaking hands, Ferguson shook Mourinho's hand firmly. His eyes were fierce, but he didn't say a word.
Manchester United tried their best in the game, but they still had no way to defeat Chelsea.
Chelsea had drawn three consecutive games before, so they know a lot about draws.
In short, the initiative in the final round of the league is now in Leeds United's own hands.
"George!"
The two people who thought they were the first to arrive at the conference room found that George Li was already there when they entered the conference room.
"when did you come?"
"You didn't go back last night, did you?"
Two teammates and colleagues who had been with George Li for many years were surprised that George Li appeared in the conference room so early.
"Yes, I didn't go back last night?" George Li told them the truth.
"Are you okay? Have you been suffering from insomnia recently?"
"Did you see Martin Jol again?"
George Li still told the rest of the coaching staff about the last supernatural incident. They all agreed that things were too tense at that time, so they misjudged it.
It’s just that Casper often mentioned this matter to George Li.
"I thought I would take a look at the tapes of Newcastle's past two games and try to find some good ways to deal with them."
George Li stood up from the chair and stretched.
In fact, last night he just watched the video for a while before falling asleep in his chair, and he slept until the morning. It's just that he slept on the stool because of something, which made him very uncomfortable when he got up now.
As the final game of the league gets closer, George Li lives under tremendous pressure every day.
The UEFA Cup is now not as important as the league championship in George Li's mind.
He already won a UEFA Cup championship last year, but this year's UEFA Cup is not that fresh for him.
"Do you want something to eat? Do you want me to help you get some from the restaurant?" McGee asked.
"That's troublesome. I think I should wash my face first."
"It's okay, go ahead. Maybe you can take a shower. It's still early anyway. In fact, the few of us can discuss it first."
George Li nodded, thinking this was a good idea.
After making the decision, George Li walked out of the conference room, came to the door, took a deep breath, and finally spit it out heavily.
"You guys discuss it first, I'll come as soon as I can."
After saying that, George Li left.
Casper put down the computer, and then planned to go to the restaurant with Mikey to help Li get something to eat, and also went there to get a few bottles of Coke to drink during the meeting.
He always drinks coffee during meetings. He thinks this is only done by the elderly.
"Colin, do you think George will have a heart problem like the old man if he keeps acting like this?"
"Can you say something nice? George is only in his thirties."
"Don't say that. The head coach has been living under tremendous pressure, and the load on his heart is too great. You know that a few days ago, a coach of the youth team at Nottingham Forest was sent to the hospital because of a heart disease and had a pacemaker. ....."
Just like when they arrived, the two of them walked to the restaurant while chatting.
Fifteen minutes later, when the two returned to the conference room again, other coaches had already arrived in the conference room and were ready to start the coaching staff meeting.
"George didn't leave last night. He went to take a shower. Let's start first." Casper came in last, closed the door and said to everyone.
McGee distributed the coffee brought from the restaurant to several other people.
Only Eddie Howe took a bottle of Coke from Casper's hand.
"Since George isn't here, let's start discussing it first, and we'll watch the video later when he comes."
When George Lee was away, first assistant coach Brian Kidd chaired the meeting for him.
"Which two forwards do you think Newcastle will have?"
"I think......"
^^^
Several people discussed it for a full hour, and just Newcastle's starting frontcourt combination took more than half an hour to discuss.
Just when a few people haven't talked enough, they are ready to continue talking.
Casper interrupted several people.
"Why hasn't George come back yet?"
He first noticed the sandwiches and coffee that had been untouched, and then thought that George Li had been gone for a long time and had not returned.
"Yeah, when did he leave?" The people who came late only knew that they had been talking for more than an hour, but they didn't know how long Li had been gone.
"It's been an hour and a half." McGee said, then jumped up and rushed out.
Several other coaches also rushed out immediately.
"Chris, you go to the shower room where the team practices, and I'll go to George's dormitory."
"OK!"
McGee ran the fastest and rushed to the training ground dormitory and found the administrator.
"Have you seen the coach?"
"I saw it. He went upstairs just now. He should still be in the dormitory. I didn't see him come down."
"OK."
Just as McGee was about to go upstairs, several other coaches also came to the dormitory.
"Is George here?"
"upstairs."
"Walk."
A few people did not take the elevator, but chose to run up the stairs.
The head coach's dormitory is on the second floor. After arriving in room 201, McGee hurriedly knocked on the door.
"Dong dong dong~"
"George, George!"
"Are you in there?"
Several people kept knocking on the door, but there was no response.
"Back off!"
Mikey motioned for everyone to step back, and he was about to kick the door open.
Just when McGee was about to take action, the door inside opened.
George Li, wearing only a pair of underpants, poked his head out.
"Sorry, I fell asleep on the bed after taking a shower. Is it still too late to rush back to the meeting?"
Mikey pushed the door open, then went in and hugged George Li.
Everyone outside the door also felt a false alarm.
After seeing that George Li was fine, they all breathed a sigh of relief.
At this time, George Li's phone happened to ring, and he saw that the number was from his brother Mike Li.
"Where are you?" Mike Li said so loudly that even if George Li put the phone to his ear, several other people could hear the voice inside.
"I was in the dormitory. I was too sleepy just now. I took a shower and fell asleep."
"Really?"
"Yes, Colin and the others found me too."
"Are you sure you're fine? Why did I hear what Chris said about heart disease and the like..."
Just when George Li answered the phone, Casper, who had just gone to the player shower room but did not find George Li, also came to the second floor of the dormitory.
But the way Mikey looked at Casper was a little unkind.
