Red Rebels

?

Redondo is back on the pitch!

This became the front page headlines hyped by English newspapers and even the vast majority of European media the next day.

The former superstar who has disappeared from the stadium for 2 years has finally returned to the green field and the fans' vision again. So for a while, whether it is England, Italy or Spain, all the fans immediately turned their attention to him. On Manchester, on the Red Rebels, on Redondo.

Since the Red Rebels' third-round FA Cup match was only recorded on Granada TV, the video became popular, and all the media were looking for the last 20 minutes of Redondo's kick.

Look at the still dashing demeanor on the camera, his running is as smooth as ever. In the fast-paced England, Redondo's speed is very slow, but under his control, the Red Rebels in the last 20 minutes are completely Azimuth suppresses Hartlepool.

Every one of his balls is vaguely visible in the past, and everyone can see that Redondo has been unable to return to the peak of the past, but from his last 20 minutes of the game, everyone saw that An out-of-print Redondo.

Redondo is unrepeatable, the only one in the world's football history!

For a time, the Newton Heath training base was stepped on the threshold, and countless media rushed in, hoping to interview the head coach and Redondo, but they were all rejected. Only the chief press officer of the Red Rebels announced the club to the public. The statement said that Redondo's injury has basically recovered, but he has not been able to adapt to the fast-paced professional game, and he still needs time.

At the same time, the club also hopes that the media can give Redondo and the club a more relaxed public opinion environment, and do not want them to put too much pressure on Redondo, after all, he has been away from the stadium for two years.

Taking into account the upsurge of Redondo's return to the court, and considering Redondo's physical condition, Mourinho did not arrange Redondo into the squad again in the league game after the Hartlepool game.

Since many of the main players did not participate in the FA Cup, they got plenty of time to rest, which made them perform very well in their home challenge to Reading. Kaka scored a hat-trick, Ronaldinho, Robben and Germany. Robba has performed very well.

Many fans and the media who came to Old Trafford specifically to see Redondo play were disappointed because Mourinho did not bring Redondo into the squad in the end.

In an interview with the media after the game, Mourinho said he hoped to give Redon a quieter environment.

"He's almost 34 and it's hard to expect him to play like he did in his prime at 28.

At the same time, he has not played a minute of the game for 2 years. What he needs most now is not to take back the glory of the year and conquer all the fans. What he needs to do most now is to follow the steps, slowly adapt to the professional league, and then enjoy his career. The last time of my career! "

"Does that mean that you are not going to reuse Redondo?"

Mourinho smiled arrogantly and pointed to the reporter: "I admire Redondo's will and persistence, he is a person of noble character, and at the same time he is a professional player, he has left the stadium 2 Years later, if it wasn't for his persistence, I have a hard time believing that he would be able to return to the court, but he did, but so what?"

"I communicate well with Redondo, we have no secrets at all, so I know how to use him, and if he wants to play, he'll find me a day earlier and tell me, Jose, I'm doing well these days. , and then I'll put him on the roster and see if it's a start for him, or when he's on the court to play games."

"We are a team, a whole, whether he is Redondo or Ronaldo, our Red Rebels will always be a whole, including the first team, the youth team, all the players, we are not one person's Teams, our bosses often say, in this world, without someone, the earth still turns, doesn't it?"

………………Although he participated in the 20-minute FA Cup game, Redondo was still very tired. He had already deeply realized that after leaving for two years, he could no longer return to the peak of the year. , he has to accept this.

In the usual training, he can't last for 90 minutes of high-intensity training. He usually only participates in the team's 30-minute training games. At other times, he will do some rehabilitation training alone. After all, he is 34 years old. If he didn't play football or train in 2018, who could demand anything from him?

Although Redondo's fans are eager to see their idols again, after Reading, Redondo still failed to appear in the squad in the next two league games, and the Red Rebels' The state has improved compared to before, and they have won the opponent.

In the fourth round of the FA Cup, the Red Rebels welcome Swindon from League Two at home.

Redondo, who took a two-week break from this game, entered the roster again.

As soon as the pre-match roster was announced, the FA Cup immediately became popular. Not only did the TV station give it a live broadcast, but it also attracted more than 30,000 fans to watch the game at Old Trafford. It is said that among them Many of them came from abroad, just to see Redondo's style.

You must know that the home attendance rate of the Red Rebels this season is generally around 35,000 to 40,000, and it has to be in the league and the UEFA Cup. The attendance rate of an FA Cup is not equal to the league, which has to be said Surprise.

In this game, Redondo got half an hour of game time. At that time, the Red Rebels had already led the opponent 2-0. Redondo came off the bench and still served as the core of the team, and his performance was a great improvement compared to the previous game. , In particular, he has a long-distance over-the-top pass, which is accurate to the minute to find Villa who was successful in anti-offside, and the latter scored directly from the far corner.

After assisting his teammates to score, Redondo received the warmest applause from the audience. The treatment he enjoyed even far exceeded that of Villa, who scored the goals. The fans in the stands kept shouting Redondo's voice.

Redondo just waved at the fans to express his gratitude, but he did not expect to attract even louder cheers.

This is the superstar!

Even though he has been away from the stadium for two years, all fans are still looking forward to his return, because he has written a legend of his own in football history.

"One day, I must have the same treatment as Fernando!" Sitting in the stands, Curtis said enviously.

Beside him, the rested first-team players also nodded their heads. In the past, they might have thought that if they played well and became a world-class player, that would be a superstar, but look at what Redondo has suffered now. Treatment, they had to overturn this definition, because Redondo is no longer a world-class star, but now who dares to say that he is not a superstar?

……………… After the FA Cup game at Swindon, Redondo was again dropped out of the league squad, something Mourinho had mentioned to him beforehand, although he was recovering Well done, but Mourinho doesn't plan on letting him play a lot in the short term.

Although Redondo is eager to participate in more games, he is very clear that this is a decision made by the laboratory and the club under the premise of protecting him, so he willingly accepts it, and at the same time, he is more in training. Meticulous.

This time Xiao Yu did not follow the team to the away game because he was busy with a major event.

Watching Redondo complete today's training next to the training ground, Xiao Yu smiled and walked over to say hello.

"Hi, Fernando!"

"Ah, boss!" Only then did Redondo notice Xiao Yu. Since he came on the bench, he started to receive the club's salary. This is also Xiao Yu's request. Otherwise, he said that he would not give Redondo. For the opportunity to play, he must be forced to accept the salary, otherwise, with Redondo's surname, he is afraid that he will refuse again.

"Do you have time to talk?" Xiao Yu asked with a smile.

Redon took a look at his sweaty appearance and nodded, "Of course, but give me some time, okay?"

"Then I'll be waiting for you in the office!"

Redondo nodded.

Looking at his back, Xiao Yu felt sad for no reason. He is almost 34 years old, how long can he play?

What can he do if he doesn't play football?

Xiao Yu could see that he had no plans to become a professional coach for the time being. Although he accepted the part-time coaching contract from the Red Rebels, it was purely out of gratitude.

Even in his previous life, Redondo did not become a coach. Although everyone was looking forward to his comeback, he went to play indoor football, which has to be said to be a pity, because if he was the head coach, He must also be a very good coach, because he has a very deep understanding of football.

But since this is his will, it is impossible for Xiao Yu to force him to stay at the Newton Heath training base to teach?

Ten minutes later, Redondo appeared in Xiao Yu's office. At this time, he found that in addition to Xiao Yu, there were David and Gardner from the Ministry of Commerce, both of whom had met Redondo. A few times, say hello and sit down.

"Fernando, I won't beat around the bush. I have negotiated with the Ministry of Commerce. Our Red Rebel Charity Foundation plans to cooperate with a charity organization of the United Nations. We plan to invite you to be our charity ambassador!"

"Charity ambassador?" Redondo was a little surprised.

Xiao Yu nodded, "Yes, basically this is a voluntary hostage, and after accepting it, you have to cooperate with the foundation to carry out a series of promotions and activities, of course, these are outside of your competition and training. time, and we may have to cooperate with some big companies.”

Redondo is a smart person. He immediately guessed Xiao Yu's intention. I dare to say that he is planning for his retirement. He hopes to run Redondo into a brand through charity and a series of activities, just like Nike. Run Bailey like that.

In this way, even if you retire in the future, there is no need to worry about your livelihood at all. This is something that will benefit you for life!
