He says his father was all about ‘sacrifice and not looking for excuses’ and that （機の）カム through in the way Lopetegui junior bounced 支援する in 管理／経営 by winning a Europa League at Sevilla after the unfortunate experiences with Spain and Madrid.

In 2018 he had the Spanish 国家の team on a 20-game unbeaten run going into the Russia World Cup but on the eve of the showpiece, Real Madrid 発表するd he would be taking over at the Bernabeu after the tournament, and Rubiales 解雇（する）d him for 交渉するing with them.

There had been 14 victories and six draws with 61 goals 得点する／非難する／２０d and only 13 譲歩するd, and it was 広範囲にわたって seen in Spain as ludicrous to 除去する him just as they were about to play their first game, and for doing something that coaches do all the time. But hot-長，率いるd Rubiales 掴むd on the 適切な時期 to become the protagonist and Lopetegui went home robbed of the chance of taking 告発（する），告訴（する）／料金 of a 選び出す／独身 game.

The players were with him to a man. Even those that would soon be 直面するing him as Real Madrid coach 手配中の，お尋ね者 him to stay. Spain’s director of football Ivan Hierro also fought for him to continue but Rubiales was not for turning and Hierro ended up as 管理人 coach as Spain 衝突，墜落d out in the first ノックアウト 一連の会議、交渉／完成する.

傷つける by the lost 適切な時期, he needed more than ever for the Madrid 職業 to be a success but Real 捨てるd him three months into the next season as the team struggled in their first （選挙などの）運動をする after Cristiano Ronaldo’s 出口 from the club.

He has always talked 負かす／撃墜する a sense of 復讐 運動ing him on in その後の 職業s. ‘You get up in the morning and you don’t 直面する the day thinking, “Two years ago…!” It’s your energy and your passion that 運動s you on,’ he told me in an interview before taking the Wolves 職業 in 2022.

His redemption （機の）カム at Sevilla where he first had to ov ercome an 逆の reaction from some fans who had bought into the idea he had let Spain 負かす／撃墜する by joining Real Madrid.

He won them over by winning a Europa League and turning a team with 比較して modest 資源s into 肩書を与える 部外者s in Spain, 安全な・保証するing 支持する／優勝者s League 資格 for three seasons in a 列／漕ぐ／騒動. When he went to Wolves he 安全な・保証するd their 首相 League 生き残り にもかかわらず them 存在 底（に届く） when he joined with only 10 points after 15 games.

The 創立／基礎 of his playing style has always been a 井戸／弁護士席-演習d defence. But he also brought the best out of gifted playmaker Isco with the Spain team and the talented but いつかs temperamental striker Youssef En-Nesyri at Sevilla.

The Morocco striker is one of the club’s most saleable 資産s and a player West Ham have taken an 利益／興味 in before. And Lopetegui first worked with Isco as Spain Under 21 coach bringing through a 世代 that also 含むd David de Gea, Koke and Alvaro Morata.

There is a 真面目さ and a かかわり合い to 詳細（に述べる） that has earned him their 尊敬（する）・点. It can make his 圧力（をかける） 会議／協議会s 保守的な, even dour, but the message is always for the players.

‘If you have lost a game or won a game the time for rejoicing or 嘆く／悼むing lasts for about as lo ng as the 地位，任命する-match meal,’ he says.

And not looking too far 今後 is as important as not looking 支援する. ‘Just because you are looking その上の ahead that doesn’t mean you take a bigger step,’ is another of his mantras.

As West Ham boss, Lopetegui will be 努力する／競うing to 安全な・保証する 支持する／優勝者s League 資格?

He believes in the 安定した climb to the 首脳会議. He will always believe the 首脳会議 was の近くに with the Spanish 国家の team, until he was 無作法に 押し進めるd 支援する 負かす／撃墜する the mountain by Rubiales.

His career remains defined by that 出来事/事件, and by the way he has 回復するd from it.

Sources の近くに to the 57-year-old say he only had 注目する，もくろむs for West Ham once their かかわり合い to him became （疑いを）晴らす. Getting them into the 支持する／優勝者s League will be the 目的（とする）.

攻撃する，衝突する those highs and he will be 支援する in the very 最高の，を越す bracket of coaches where he has always believed he belongs. And it will give him something 肯定的な to 報告（する）／憶測 on those trips 支援する to Asteasu in Guipuzcoa, northern Spain to see Jose Antonio.
