The people looked around, and there was indeed no sign of Lobo.

Just as everyone was wondering what this guy had done, Jimenez's phone rang.

He took out his phone and saw that it was Lobo who called.

After he answered the call, he smiled for no reason, then glanced at Su Wei intentionally or unintentionally, and then asked tentatively: "Are you sure you think so?"

On the other end of the phone, Lobo said a few more words to Jimenez, and then the two hung up.

Putting away his phone, Jimenez said to everyone: "Sorry, I'm afraid Lobo can't come. His family is sick, and it's quite serious. He will miss today's game, but he told me something. I'll make arrangements later."

When everyone heard this, they stared at each other.

Lobo's unexpected absence will definitely have some impact on Laco's defense.

But the problem is not too big. After the introduction of Van Dijk, Laco has no shortage of central defenders.

"Okay, let's talk about Lobo later. There's nothing we can do about it. After all, the safety of the family is always more important than the game. Now that everyone is here, let's analyze the opponent tomorrow night."

De Bruyne on the projection screen began to move.

"De Bruyne, a Belgian player, is 24 years old this year. He just transferred to Manchester City for 60 million euros during the summer window!"

"In the past September, he was the best player in Manchester City. He scored three goals in five games and sent two assists..."

Jimenez's voice was not loud, but the data of three goals and two assists still shocked the Laco players.

Salman whispered, "This guy is so good, he can score and assist, he is almost the same as you, Boss!"

Su Wei laughed and said, "What? Are you scared?"

Salman shook his head and said, "Don't be afraid, although his performance is similar to yours, he is far worse than Boss! Boss can score, assist, and defend better!"

Since this guy has been hanging out with Su Wei every day, not only his football skills and Chinese have gradually improved, but his flattery skills are also first-class.

Su Wei smiled but said nothing.

Jimenez on the stage continued to analyze the specific situation of Manchester City to the players.

Aguero, David Silva, Yaya Toure, one by one, familiar names rang in Su Wei's ears.

Hearing these names, he already knew that tomorrow's game was destined to be not easy.

The analysis lasted for about an hour, and Jimenez spoke in detail.

Manchester City's starting players were basically mentioned.

He also focused on analyzing the characteristics of Manchester City in recent games on both offense and defense.

After analyzing the opponent, Jimenez began to announce the starting lineup.

Manchester City is very strong, so he continued to arrange the 4231 formation.

On the front line, based on the fact that Salman has scored goals in the league recently and performed well, he was arranged in the starting position.

There are not many changes in the midfield, Su Wei and Brozovic are double defensive midfielders.

The attacking midfielder is Farina, the left midfielder Carrasco, and the right midfielder Salmon.

In terms of defense, Lobo was unexpectedly absent, and Jimenez could only let Insua and Van Dijk partner as central defenders.

The left back is still Karane, and the right back Pablo has gradually faded out of the starting lineup, and Rolie barely topped it.

In the goalkeeper position, Roux received a red card in the last game.

This round is suspended for one game, and Fabisio will start.

...

After the announcement of the starting lineup, Jimenez smiled slightly and arranged the content of the conversation with Lobo just now.

And he had discussed this matter with Pablo earlier.

After all, Pablo is about to retire, so he should not take the captain's position if he can. He needs to find a successor to replace him!

At present, Laco has three captains. Pablo is still the captain, and there are two vice-captains, one is Lobo and the other is Farina.

Pablo is in a semi-retired state and has rarely played as a substitute recently.

The captain's work is basically done by Lobo.

Now that Lobo is absent from the game, Laco's captain is only Farina.

It is obviously not enough for a team to have only one captain.

If Farina is not on the court, who will wear the captain's armband?

Jimenez feels that it is urgent to add another vice-captain.

The captain of the team is generally appointed by the coach.

At this moment, he already has a suitable candidate for the new vice-captain in his mind.

And that person, Jimenez thinks Su Wei is the most suitable.

When discussing this issue with Pablo earlier, the latter did not hesitate, and the first name he said was Su Wei.

After all, Su Wei is Laco.

The most valuable and powerful player in the Laco team.

Although he is young, he has great prestige in the team. The old players like him very much. Jimenez also wants to improve Su Wei's status in the club.

Of course, this is also Eduardo's idea.

Recently, Eduardo has privately approached me and asked me to promote Su Wei to be the captain.

Eduardo's idea is very simple. As Su Wei's fame grows, it is difficult to keep Su Wei with money alone. He hopes that Su Wei will have more sense of belonging in Laco.

The captain's status is undoubtedly a good bargaining chip.

But Jimenez considered that Su Wei had only been in Laco for more than a year and his qualifications were not enough, so he couldn't directly promote Su Wei to be the vice-captain.

Today, Lobo's absence is a good opportunity, and Lobo himself also agrees that Su Wei will take over his position.

So Jimenez took advantage of the situation and tried his best to do this.

At this time, he said slowly: "Our captain Luo may not be able to come back in a few days. The team needs to add a vice-captain temporarily. For the sake of fairness, let's have an anonymous vote!"

According to Jimenez's idea, if everyone did not vote for Su Wei, it would prove that his worries were right, and this matter would have to wait a little longer.

If they voted, everyone would be happy.

There were more than 20 people in the Laco first team, and the voting was also very fast. It took less than half an hour for the voting results to come out.

Su Wei 12 votes, Du Jie 6 votes, Luo Lie 3 votes, Roux 2 votes, Brozovic 1 vote.

Jimenez saw the voting results, which were within his expectations.

So he immediately announced that Su Wei would become the team's vice-captain.

In the meeting room, applause immediately rang out.

Brozovic also said, "Captain Su, come up on stage and say a few words to us?"

Van Dijk and others shouted, "Yes, go up and say a few words!"

Su Wei smiled and stood up, walked to Jimenez, and cleared his throat.

"Thank you for your support. Brothers, let's work together tomorrow night and try to beat Manchester City! Do you have confidence?"

Everyone answered in unison, "Yes!"

At this time, Du Jie, who lost to Su Wei, said below, "Captain Su, forget it today. If we beat Manchester City tomorrow, you have to treat everyone to a dinner!"

Su Wei raised his thumb and blurted out, "No problem!"

...

The pre-match preparation meeting ended, and the players filed out of the meeting room.

Old captain Pablo was the last to stand up from his chair.

When he stood up and prepared to leave, Jimenez smiled and asked, "Do you think Su will be a qualified new captain?"

Pablo smiled and said, "How can I know about the future, but I just voted for him!"
