Early the next morning, George Lee came to Mourinho's residence in London.
After knocking on the door, a little girl about ten years old opened the door.
"Who are you?" The little girl poked her head out of the door and asked George Li.
"You are Dita, I'm here to find your father." George Li said to the little girl.
Then the little girl turned her head and shouted inside: "Dad, a handsome big brother is here to find you."
Hearing what Dita said, George Li felt a little embarrassed.
After a while, Mourinho came to the door and welcomed George Li at the door.
When I walked inside, I saw many people packing their things, as if they were leaving.
"I was cleaning up the things in the study early in the morning, and they were a bit messy. So..." Mourinho pointed to the kitchen.
"It's okay." George Li followed Mourinho to the kitchen and sat down.
Mourinho went to the coffee machine to get two cups of coffee.
Just last night, when George Li learned that Mourinho was dismissed from get out of class, he sent a text message to inquire.
Mourinho immediately responded to the message and invited him to visit his home the next day. In his words, George Lee is his rare "friend" in the Premier League.
Awesome!
George Li's thinking at the time was that it is really easy and difficult to be your "friend". Easy means that you can become Mourinho's friend as long as Mourinho likes you; but difficult means that Mourinho has a very high vision and few people can see it.
Over the past three seasons, the two have actually not interacted much. In terms of transfers, only Leeds United introduced Parker and Robben from Chelsea, while Chelsea did not buy any players from Leeds United. In terms of friendship, the two only had a few meals and exchanged a few phone calls and text messages with each other, usually just holiday blessings and the like.
But this does not prevent the two from becoming good friends.
In the media, Mourinho has always been on Li George's side. Like the previous incident of Smith's beating and the conflict between Li George and Viduka, Mourinho always spoke for Li.
In turn, Mourinho also believes that Lee George is not as exclusive as other British coaches. Based on this alone, Mourinho said that he recognized him as a friend.
"Your daughter is very cute." When George Li saw Mourinho's daughter actually taking a pack of cookies and placing them in front of the two of them, he looked at the little girl's back and said to Mourinho.
"Tita knew I hadn't had breakfast, so she gave me her cookie. Her mom must have told her to do that. You know, since last night, I've been... a mess, really ." Mourinho opened the biscuit, took out a biscuit, took a bite, and then spread his hands.
"She looks about ten years old, born in 1990?" George Li continued to ask about Mourinho's daughter.
"I was born in 1996, why are you asking?" Mourinho continued to eat his biscuit.
"Hey~, I have three sons, all about the same age. Are you interested..."
Although George Li was joking, Mourinho suddenly put the cookie away and frowned, obviously thinking.
"I don't think it's okay to have two adopted sons. As far as I know, one talks too much and the other talks too little. It won't work."
"You actually know them?" George Li was also surprised by Mourinho's words. He didn't expect that he knew his son quite well.
"Can't you? We took Leeds United's U14 and beat our Chelsea U14 8-0. At that time, Roman and I were walking in the training ground. Roman was very angry at the time and said how could there be any youth team that was better than us? Training players, I want to buy them over. When I inquired about it, I found out that he is actually your son. Then Roman really has no choice but to have money. "
Mourinho imitated Abramovich's tone and spoke very closely. Now that he is relieved of the burden of Chelsea's head coach, he feels much more relaxed and does not look like a "madman" at all.
"Okay, Jose. You are no longer the head coach of Chelsea." Li George reminded the other party that the term "our Chelsea" does not need to be used.
"Yeah~" Mourinho ate the last biscuit and saw that he probably hadn't eaten anything since last night and was indeed hungry.
"What's next, where are you going?"
"Spain."
Li George thought Mourinho would think about it before talking, but he didn't expect Mourinho to just blurt it out.
He remembered that in later generations, Mourinho would only be dismissed a month or two later, and then become the head coach of Inter Milan after one season.
It seems that his Community Shield has brought Mourinho's dismissal ahead of schedule.
"Or for your dream, to coach Barcelona?"
"Yes."
I remember the last time the two of us had dinner, Mourinho mentioned that the team he most wanted to coach was Barcelona.
"Could it be..."
"You know, I was an assistant coach in Barcelona and I know a few people from the club. It is said that someone in the senior management has already had the idea of replacing Rijkaard, and several senior officials have the idea... ..”
The two of them were secretive about what they said, and they didn't say everything, but this didn't affect the two of them from understanding each other's meaning.
"When we play against each other in the Champions League in the future, please remember to give me some water."
"Haha~, impossible." Mourinho shook his head, "Don't give me ecstasy. I remember you beat Barcelona stupid in the European Super Cup last season."
"Lucky, lucky." George Li quickly became humble.
He actually wanted to tell Mourinho that you might hit a wall when applying for the job this time, as they have already arranged connections there.
Even if you get a perfect score in the written test, you will still be rejected during the interview.
But he still held back and didn't say anything.
"When the time comes, I will sell Ronaldio to you, do you want it?"
"No, Messi, I can consider it." It was all a joke and bragging anyway, so George Li might as well brag a little louder.
"Tell me, if I didn't go to Barcelona, where else could I go?"
Finally, Mourinho also expressed his concerns. After all, no one can say it accurately and no one can guarantee it.
"With your current status, you can only find some teams with the support of big bosses. Without big investment, they will definitely not be able to meet your needs."
After hearing George Li's suggestion, Mourinho nodded in agreement, and then waited for him to continue.
"Barcelona and Real Madrid are two options, but you will definitely not be willing to be the current chairman of Real Madrid. As for Bayern, they will definitely prefer local coaches. Or you may consider a Serie A team."
"Inter Milan?" This is the Serie A team that Mourinho first thought of. After all, the team chairman is famous for his willingness to spend money.
"Actually, you still have a choice."
"where?"
"Leeds United, our boss is also a big spender."
"Fuck you." Mourinho smiled and pushed George Lee, "I went to Leeds United, where are you going?"
"I'll go to Chelsea. If that doesn't work, I'll wait until the old man retires and go to Manchester United."
"Hahaha~"
Mourinho swept away his previous decadence, stood up, and then went to find his wife.
"George, I'm leaving in a few days. You can stay here for lunch today to try my wife's Portuguese food. Another friend of mine, Robbie Williams, will also be here later. I'll introduce you to him."
"The one who sings?"
"Yes."
"Then I want to have a good chat with him. You know I also like singing."
Mourinho found that he may have made a wrong decision, because according to media reports, the Leeds United manager's singing level may be a bit poor.

After the luncheon at Mourinho's house, Li George returned to Leeds on his own because the team returned to Leeds in the morning.
After returning home, he found Olson watching TV and Wallace working out.
When Olson saw his father coming back, he hurriedly got up from the sofa and said hello to his father.
"Dad, why are you back? Didn't you go celebrate with the team or go on a date with sister Helen?"
Wallace, on the other hand, nodded to his father while holding dumbbells.
George Li's eyes kept scanning the two adopted sons, making the two little guys feel frightened.
One word is too much, another word is too little.
Mourinho was really right. It seems that Chelsea's scouts really investigated carefully.
It seems that the hope of marrying Mourinho is pinned on his own son.
^^^
night.
When Leeds United fans are still immersed in the joy of the team's championship, when Leeds United players are still chic at the championship party arranged by the team.
Leeds United's coaching staff has turned on their cameras and started a coaching staff meeting.
The curtain of the 2007/08 Premier League season will begin in four days.
As the last champion, Leeds United is under a lot of pressure.
