Fenerbahce s farewell ceremony ended with a shabby farewell ceremony! Mourinho s face angrily criticized the management, and the captain s refusal to the game caused civil unrest

The canteen of the Samandra Training Base in Fenerbahce was supposed to be a daily place for players to rush to pick up lunch and discuss tactics, but one day it suddenly became the "farewell stage" for the two veterans. Captain Dzeko and deputy captain Tadic may have been mentally prepared, but when they see the plastic medals on the dining table and listen to the director Illjar's proposal, "Just make it a little bit", I'm afraid I'll still feel cold. Mourinho's reaction was not surprising - this old coach who always talked about "humanity" and his face was sunk on the spot. He stared at the mottled menu on the wall and muttered to the air: "Is this the treatment for twenty years of meritorious deeds? I have never been so shabby in the reserve team." It is said that he refused to eat in the cafeteria that day, and drove to a small restaurant in the city alone. He ordered two glasses of red wine but only took a sip, and the rest was poured on the bread - very much like his attitude towards this farce: it is difficult to swallow, but he has to swallow it. The management's indifference is even more heartbreaking. They may feel that at the critical moment when the team is on the verge of relegation and fans are constantly protesting, any farewell ceremony is a waste of money. But they forgot that football has never been a simple digital game - Dzeko's header for the savior, Tadic's assist king for three consecutive seasons. The emotional connection outside of these data is the foundation that supports fans' unyieldingness. When the medals jingle on the plastic tray, it is not only the decency of the two veterans, but also the last trust between the club and the fans.

Who would have thought that the grand farewell originally scheduled to be in Konia's away game would eventually end with "refusing to participate"? Dzeko and Tadic's decisions seem willful at first glance, but when they are carefully considered, they are the pride of veterans. Think about it, what kind of mood should they feel when they stand in the player's passage in training suits, listening to the sparse booing in the stands, and looking at the "subscription" slogans scrolling on the big screen? Perhaps Dzeko would remember the tsunami of fans singing his name when he debuted ten years ago; Tadic might stare at the lawn in a daze, remembering the banner "Forever No. 10" floating in the stands when he won the championship last year. Now these have become ironic - they don't want to end their careers, and they are painted in a slander. Mourinho actually understands them. He rubbed his temples at the press conference and said, "If it were me, I wouldn't want to say goodbye in this atmosphere." But the management obviously didn't understand - they were busy dealing with the media and explaining that "it was not fired", but they didn't realize that when the two captains walked out of the base gate with their luggage, they also took away the team's final cohesion. The goalkeepers on the training ground draw lots and substitutes took turns to play. The seemingly warm scene of "training" may have become an embarrassing scene of "the tree falls and money scatters". The moment Tadic's INS avatar was replaced by the children wearing Ajax jerseys, the fans suddenly realized: some farewells have been written in life. The wife of this Serbian veteran has always been low-key, but at this critical moment, she "accidentally" revealed the secrets of heaven. Maybe she wanted to give her husband some decentness, after all, compared to the club's plastic medals, the Jia family's red and white striped shirts are more of a tribute to her career. Mourinho failed to say goodbye in person, but sent a message late at night - "The Future Coach Mr.", just a few words, hidden the old coach's preference for his disciples. Thinking of Tadic's scolding for a stop-off mistake in the training field, he is now evaluated as the "Best Coach Potential Stock". This is the wonder of football: sternness and gentleness have always been one side. But this warm scene, in the chaos of Fenerbahce, seems particularly dazzling. When veterans are looking for a new home on social media, and when Mourinho repeatedly emphasized "communication" at the press conference, there may still be sandwiches that were not finished at the farewell ceremony in the club's cafeteria - just like this farce, it tastes tasteless, but it has consumed too much energy to abandon it.

Fenebahce's story is like a microcosm of modern football: under the logic of performance first, human feelings have become the first budget to be cut. The management calculated the cost of medals and the public relations risks of fans' protests, but did not count. When the Dzeko and others left with regret, they might take away the youthful memories of a whole generation of fans. Mourinho's anger is not so much arguing for the two veterans, but rather a fight for the "humanity" of football. But in the gap between capital and achievements, this kind of struggle seems particularly powerless - all he can do is to stay at the press conference for a few more minutes and use the defense of "not expulsion" to reserve the last layer of fig leaf for this farce. As for the future? When Tadic commands the run on the training ground in Ajax, and when Dzeko shares his experience in the locker room of the new team, a new fareweller may be welcomed in Fenerbahce's cafeteria. I just don’t know if they will remember to find a slightly decent curtain-breaking stage for the meritorious people - for example, at least not in the canteen with the smell of fried fish.
