Football King Bale

Chapter 666: Confused Pogba

Ramsey scores again!

Since the beginning of this season, Ramsey's continued outburst has become one of the most talked about topics. Arsenal challenged Swansea away from home. The Welsh midfielder once again continued his outstanding performance and not only provided assists to help Gnabry open the scoring. , and also opened the score gap with a blast shot, which can be said to be the first contributor to Arsenal's 3 points in this campaign.

As a mid-range team, Swansea has a good idea of ​​dealing with Arsenal and has taken away a victory against the Gunners for two consecutive seasons.

This game was also quite intense. The two teams that advocated control launched a fierce battle in the midfield, and even no shot was on target in the first half.

Seeing that Arsenal was about to be dragged into an endless tug-of-war, at the critical moment, Ramsey, who has been the key player many times this season, stepped forward again.

When the game progressed to the 58th minute, Arsenal made continuous passes at the front of the penalty area. Giroud stopped and adjusted the ball too much and was intercepted. Ramsey quickly followed up and lightly passed the ball to Gnabry in the gap. , the latter easily scored the ball with a low shot, and Arsenal finally broke the deadlock.

Gnabry's calmness in handling this ball is certainly commendable, but Ramsey's delivery is the key. He used a four-two pass to completely disintegrate Swansea's defense and give Gnabry a close range. A good opportunity to shoot.

However, sending an assist did not satisfy Ramsey, who had already scored 7 goals in 7 games. The Welshman with good footwork obviously hoped to continue his scoring record, and there was a very threatening long shot in the first half.

In the 62nd minute, Ramsey finally waited for an opportunity. Giroud attracted the defense in the penalty area and passed back. Ramsey easily dodged Canas and fired a shot directly through the goal guarded by Wurm.

After scoring this goal, Ramsey has tied for third place in the scorer list with 4 league goals. And his performance of 8 goals and 3 assists in the past 8 games may still be a little behind his Welsh compatriot Bale's 13 goals and 5 assists in 8 games, but compared with Messi's 11 goals in 9 games and 8 assists. Ronaldo, who scored 9 goals, is not much inferior.

In addition, Arsenal is Manchester United's biggest competitor in the Premier League era. For a while, some British media said that La Liga has the arrogance of Messi and Ronaldo, but the Premier League also has the pair of talents of Bale and Ramsey.

………………

Arsenal fans are cheering for Arsenal's outstanding performance, and the media are also applauding Ramsey's outstanding performance, but another young player in Manchester United who is famous for his genius is in trouble.

Although he won consecutive starts at Manchester United, Pogba's performance was somewhat disappointing. In the Manchester Derby with Manchester City, the Manchester City people opened the way to score goals through him; and in this game, West Brom also scored the first goal from Pogba's position.

Although there are occasional eye-catching passes and shots on the field, Pogba also fully demonstrated his shortcomings in the game, such as lack of concentration, too much stickiness to the ball, and slow pace... These are all Premier League problems. This is a taboo in such a fast-paced game, but Pogba has shown these shortcomings to the world one by one in the last two games.

And because Manchester United conceded too many goals in these two games, they only got two draws, and then their ranking in the league fell to the lowest point in the past six years.

In the British media, there have been many voices criticizing Pogba. They believe that Ferguson and Manchester United did not try their best to keep Sneijder during the summer transfer window, but instead pinned their hopes on Pogba. Biggest mistake of the season.

Even some Manchester United fans left messages on the club's official website, hoping that Ferguson would consider Pogba's position at Manchester United. With his performance, he is not worthy of being Manchester United's main force and starter.

………………

The poor performance in these two games not only caused Pogba to receive a lot of criticism, but also affected the selection of this year's European Golden Boy Award.

Last year, Pogba lost to Malaga's Isco in the competition for the European Golden Boy Award. This made Pogba very disappointed at the time.

This year, as Pogba has more and more opportunities to play for Manchester United, coupled with Manchester United's excellent record on all fronts, Pogba has always been the biggest favorite for the European Golden Boy Award. Major media and major betting companies According to the odds offered, Pogba is almost always in a crushing position.

In the initial list of 40 candidates for the European Golden Boy Award announced by Tuttosport, it included Pogba, Draxler, Bruma, Lukaku, Januzaj, Jese, and Kovacic. Young European talents such as Nastasic, Quintero, Chamberlain, Zaha and Varane are among them.

In mid-September, Tuttosport announced a final list of five players, namely Pogba, Varane, Coutinho, Draxler and Zaha.

However, after Manchester United lost three points in two consecutive games due to Pogba's mistakes, Pogba's odds of winning the European Golden Boy Award were raised. Correspondingly, Varane, Draxler and Couti The odds for Neo and others have dropped.

This year is Pogba's last chance to win the European Golden Boy Award. If he misses it again, he will miss the European Golden Boy Award.

Therefore, Pogba is very concerned about this year's European Golden Boy Award. But the current situation made him very confused.

………………

Pogba, who was depressed, found Bale and asked him for advice.

Pogba believes that Bell has achieved two consecutive FIFA Ballon d'Or awards and is about to achieve three consecutive championships. In addition, the other awards have also been obtained softly, so he should be very experienced.

Bale looked at Pogba, who looked doubtful about life, and shook his head secretly. This guy just values ​​external things too much.

Of course, Bell also understands this very well. After all, Pogba is a real young man. He is not so young on the outside, but in fact he is already the fake youth of a greasy middle-aged uncle.

It is normal for young people to care about face and good performance.

Isn’t it a waste of youth to be coquettish?

However, if anything is too much, it will be difficult to get it if you attach too much importance to it.

For awards like these in football, when everyone is of similar strength, you can indeed increase your reputation and exposure through hype, thereby winning.

However, after all, football is still a sport that relies on your feet to speak. If you really have the ability and achieve results, that is better than anything else.

Bale has been weak in winning various awards over the years. Is it really based on hype?

Relying purely on hype, can he defeat Messi and Cristiano Ronaldo, two of the most famous twins in the world long before him?

No, he relies on his conscientious game and diligent playing. Then his personal data is good, the team's results are eye-catching, and various honors come one after another.

(Ball Saint System: I will just watch and not say anything...)

………………

Bell felt that Pogba was still young and it was time to reshape his world view, so he decided to have a good talk with him.

"Paul, do you really think the Golden Boy Award is very important?" Bell asked.

Pogba said without hesitation: "Of course, that is the coming of age ceremony for young players, or the Golden Globe Award for young players!"

Bell smiled and said: "You said it, it seems really important. But, can it really represent the Golden Globe Award?"

"This..." Pogba was silent.

Bell said: "Since the birth of the first Golden Boy Award ten years ago, ten Golden Boy Awards have been produced. Van der Vaart and Wien, who were the first to win the award, are now almost at the peak or even the end of their careers. But besides Messi, who else really won the Ballon d'Or?"

Pogba was silent again.

Bell asked again: "Did I get the Golden Boy Award? Did Chris get the Golden Boy Award?"

Pogba shook his head. Because he is very concerned about whether he can win the Golden Boy Award, Pogba is very concerned about this award and has learned about it in detail.

Ronaldo's best ranking in the European Golden Boy Award was second in 2004, but in 2003 and 2005, he failed to enter the top three despite being of the right age.

As for Bell, his highest ranking in the selection of the Golden Boy Award was fifth. That was in 2009. With his performance in the Premier League, Bell entered the top five of the Golden Boy Award. However, due to his lack of success in the European war Performance, Bell ultimately lost to Pato and others. And that was Bell's last chance to be selected for the Golden Boy Award. In 2010, Bell had already missed the selection for the Golden Boy Award due to his overage.

………………

After hesitating for a moment, Pogba asked: "So you mean the Golden Boy Award is not important anymore?"

Bell shook his head and said: "That's not what I meant. I just want to say that the Golden Boy Award is not the same as the Golden Globe Award. It is an honor to get it, but it will not affect your future Golden Globe Award if you don't get it. What you need is to play seriously and put everything else aside. When you have an outstanding performance on the court, help the team score one goal after another, send out assists again and again, and win one game after another. Winning every game, winning one championship after another, whether it’s the Golden Boy Award, the Golden Globe Award, or any other awards, they will all be there.”

Bell looked at Pogba and said seriously: "Paul, as a professional player, I hope you will always remember that playing football is our profession and the only way for us to succeed. When we do our profession well , money, status and honor, everything will follow! On the contrary, if other messy things affect our career, then everything will go away from us."

After a pause, Bell added: "Of course, if you have David's looks, you don't have to care too much about playing football, because you can make a living with your looks. However, I think both me and you He’s not the kind of person who can rely on his looks to make a living! What’s more, even David is one of the top players in world football!”

Of course Pogba knows who the David Bell is talking about is not the current Manchester United goalkeeper, but the predecessor of Bell and Ronaldo in the Manchester United team.
