Chapter 3 Farewell Ceremony
After the game, the Barcelona club held a farewell ceremony for Guardiola.

The audience of [-] fans stood up and sang Guardiola's song.

For them, today is both happy and sad day.

Happily, they have Messi who is only 25 years old and at his peak.

Sadly, because of the turmoil of the club's replacement of the chairman, the team's legendary coach Guardiola left.

This makes them feel a little pessimistic about the future prospects of the team.

It is difficult to find a coach like Guardiola, who was born in La Masia's youth training system, is familiar with Barcelona's tactical play, and makes full use of Barcelona's characteristics to develop a new tactical system and give full play to his own advantages.

With Guardiola in charge of the coach, Barcelona once created a feat in which all 11 players in the audience came from Barcelona's youth training.

But after Guardiola left, can his successor reuse La Masia's youth training players like this?
Can you still achieve a brilliant record like Guardiola?
The more they think about this, the more reluctant they are to Guardiola.

The fans waved Barcelona flags, held up various pictures of Guardiola's portrait, and sang loudly the praises of Guardiola.

Guardiola walked to the stadium alone, he looked up at the auditorium, at the stadium.

Here he led the team to achieve brilliant results and left their legend.

But after today, he will no longer belong here.

If you come back here next time, it will probably be as an opponent.

When the time comes, will these lovely fans still welcome and cheer for themselves like today?
At this time, the big screen on the stadium began to play a highlight replay of Guardiola's achievements during his four years in charge.

In every game, I carefully take notes, study tactics and opponent's weaknesses...

In the end, the scene was fixed at the scene where the team won the Champions League last season and he was thrown high by the players.

With excitement, Guardiola took the microphone handed over by the staff.

I put it to my mouth several times, but I couldn't open it again.

I was afraid that if I spoke, the fans and team members would hear my choked up voice.

This is his home, but he is about to leave.

People often say that the closer you are to the hometown, the more you feel, but when a wanderer leaves his hometown and his future is uncertain, what kind of mood will he feel at that time?

He took a deep breath, tried hard to adjust his state, and said:
"Here, I would like to express my gratitude to everyone!"

"Especially the people around you, the players, the coaching staff, the staff at the club."

"I am also very grateful to the fans who support us. We may not be that close, but I can feel your support every day."

"You know I'll miss you and it's a thrill to leave Camp Nou with your support!"

The fans waved various banners and slogans of support and gratitude to Guardiola, and sent applause and blessings to Guardiola.

"As for the reason for my departure, I have said it many times on different occasions, but here I think I still need to explain it to you again."

"In the past four years of coaching Barcelona, ​​we have achieved very good results, but during this time my work pressure has been very high, and I have not been able to spend time with my family.

Here, I apologize to them, and I promise to accompany my family well in the next period of time! "

Guardiola looked down the tunnel, where his girlfriend, Cristina Serra, and her four children were smiling at him.

Lin Quan is among them!

Yes, the couple who adopted Lin Quan back then were Guardiola and Serra.

Although they are not their own biological children, Guardiola and Serra have always treated Lin Quan as their own, treating them equally with their other three children.

Guardiola waved at them, and Serra immediately walked towards him with the four children.

"Thank you, Pep, we can finally start our vacation now!"

Serra smiled and hugged her lover. She saw that Guardiola was a little depressed, so she tried to divert his attention with things like vacations.

"Thank you Christina, and I'm sorry I haven't been able to spend time with you and the children all these years!"

Guardiola felt a little guilty and apologized again sincerely.

"Don't say I'm sorry, if you really feel indebted, it's better to express it with practical actions!"

"Well, this suggestion is good, I will consider it!"

Guardiola was thinking about getting married. He felt that it was time to end this long-distance love race.

When it was Lin Quan's turn, Guardiola took the initiative to hug him, patted his shoulder vigorously, and said to him:
"Lin, you are already 16 years old, and it's time to think about your future career plans. Do you have any ideas?"

Lin Quan thought carefully for a while, and replied:

"I plan to practice hard in Barcelona, ​​and then find a team to rent or transfer to!"

"You want to leave Barcelona?"

Guardiola was a little surprised by Lin Quan's thoughts.

Players from the La Masia youth training camp rarely have the idea of ​​​​leaving Barcelona on their own initiative.

But looking at Lin Quan's appearance, he doesn't seem to have such deep feelings for Barcelona.

Could it be that his choice to resign affected him because of his relationship with the club?

"Yes, Barcelona's first team is full of talents, I don't have many opportunities here, so I have to leave!"

Lin Quan said so, but in fact, what he thought in his heart was that Barcelona was not worth staying.

Judging from Barcelona's operation to drive away Messi at the deadline of the transfer period ten years later, this club has no human touch at all.

A legendary player who has played for the team for 21 years, scored more than 600 goals, and led the team to win countless honors, can be humiliated and driven away by them in such an unreasonable, almost playful way.

Only fools are willing to stay in this kind of club!
Guardiola thought for a while, Barcelona's midfielder is indeed rich in talent reserves.

Busquets, Harvey, Iniesta and others are at their peak, and they are very strong.

I'm afraid young players really can't compete with them, although when he was the head coach, he was going to train Lin Quan as Harvey's heir.

For this reason, he was even given the No. [-] jersey of the youth team, which was also the jersey he wore when he played for Barcelona.

But after he leaves, he doesn't know how Barcelona's tactics will change.

Every coach has his own ideas. Some people like to reuse their youth training players, while others like to buy famous players from outside.

Therefore, the development plan he made for Lin Quan before may not be feasible now.

"Okay, I respect your choice, let's have a good chat after we go back!"

Lin Quan nodded, Guardiola is now the hottest legendary coach on the planet.

I must consider his opinion.

After hugging family members, colleagues and team players in turn.

Under the farewell of the club's staff, Guardiola left the stadium quickly.

From this moment on, Guardiola and Barcelona broke the link.

Many people, including fans and club executives, thought this was just a short separation.

He will come back when the chairman of the club changes and the conflict between Guardiola and the club eases.

But no one thought that this farewell was actually a forever farewell.
