Starting with Real Madrid

Chapter 67: The other side of Ronaldo

In fact, Gao Shen is a Ronaldo fan, and he is a very **** kind.

With his age, it is no exaggeration to say that he grew up watching Ronaldo play football.

But sometimes, things in the world are so interesting.

Who would have thought that he would travel by accident and become Ronaldo's head coach?

What's even more outrageous is that after he became the head coach of Real Madrid, instead of taking advantage of the fans and making good use of Ronaldo, he directly suppressed him. So far, it has been a month, and he has not been included in the big list.

When he was pouring water in front of the water dispenser, Gao Shen thought for a while, he was really ashamed of his status as a Ronaldo fan.

At least, he was embarrassed to mention it.

……

The hardware and software facilities of the Real Madrid head coach's office are good.

The decoration is very high-end, sofas, desks, etc., at first glance, they are high-end goods, and even the computers seem to be highly configured. Playing Football Manager will definitely be able to open the largest database, and there is no pressure.

Gao Shen had several thoughts in his mind, some of which even made him laugh.

After pouring the water, he turned around and walked back to the sofa, and found Ronaldo sitting opposite him, with his hands in front of him, fingers interlaced, looking a little nervous, or rather, a little uneasy.

Gao Shen was a little puzzling, but after thinking about it carefully, he understood.

What kind of character is Ronaldo?

Many people have the impression of him as a simple, honest and cheerful person who shows his signature rabbit teeth when he smiles, and who enjoys football very much.

That's certainly true, but it's just that part of Ronaldo's football.

To put it more strictly, it is the part after having a good time on the football field.

Ordinary people can't imagine what Ronaldo has gone through in his entire career. For many people, every serious injury he suffered is unimaginable, and even lifelong.

But he stepped over it, and every time he played The Return of the King.

Football has given him a lot, but he also lost a lot.

From childhood to adulthood, he has been the arrogant son of the heavens. He is recognized by the world as a genius beyond the world. He is held in the palm of his hand and cared for by everyone, so he is very self-willed. He needs to be coaxed, cared for, and accommodated by others.

He once stood at the top of world football. He was the active king who was compared with Pele and Maradona, but he was so fragile. From the eve of the World Cup final in France to the time after joining Inter Milan Several serious injuries caused him to fall rapidly from the peak.

Many people think that the World Cup in Korea and Japan has brought him to the peak of his football career. This is true, but his career was bleak. All his honors were won by the Brazilian national team.

When he joined Real Madrid, he wanted to prove himself wholeheartedly, but who would have thought that after a league championship, Real Madrid's superstar strategy would fall into a bottomless abyss. his expectations.

At first, the outside world began to question him more and more. Gradually, the teammates around him began to question him. In the end, even he himself began to doubt himself. Is he not as strong as he thought? so nice?

The more he tried to prove himself, the worse things got.

Eventually, he became sensitive, complicated, anxious.

Willfulness prevented him from cooperating friendly with powerful coaches like Cooper and Lusenberg; sensitivity and anxiety made him doubt himself and become less confident; age and injuries made his body continue to decline... …

All of this comes together to become the Ronaldo of today.

……

The office door is closed.

There were only two people inside.

What Gao Shen saw was an anxious, unconfident Ronaldo.

He has never been the character of Carlos. Even if he sometimes says something in the media, it is actually more like a kind of protection for himself, or a helpless struggle against reality, or an escape.

For example, he indulges in nightclubs and women. Is this like some students who don't like classes and like to indulge in computers and online games?

Gao Shen was really surprised. He thought about what it would be like when he met Ronaldo many times and how to talk about it. He thought that Ronaldo was very proud and willful, and he also thought that Ronaldo threatened and intimidated him, but he never thought about it. Ronaldo would show such a vulnerable side in front of him.

He is a genius!

But genius is always fragile!

Gao Shen gently placed the water glass in front of Ronaldo and sat down beside him. Seeing Ronaldo lowered his head, he didn't seem to be ready to speak.

"Actually, I've wanted to talk to you for a long time, but I haven't been able to find a suitable opportunity." Gao Shen opened the topic.

This is a bit perfunctory.

Ronaldo raised his head and glanced at Gao Shen, "Really?"

Gao Shen nodded, "I always thought that you should be the most important person in the team."

Ronaldo looked at Gao Shen silently, and probably couldn't tell whether Gao Shen's words were true or false.

Because since he took office, Gao Shen has never been on the big list.

"You know, football is a team game of 11 people. We want to win a game. Often times, we don't choose the best and most important 11 people, but choose the most suitable 10 people. One person, through tactics and overall collaboration, maximizes overall strength, can you understand what I mean?"

Ronaldo understands that the profound meaning is that the strongest and most important does not mean that it is the most suitable.

"Have you watched the few games after I took over?" Gao Shen asked suddenly.

Ronaldo was stunned for a moment, then nodded, "Every home is here, and I also watch the live broadcast at away."

"How do you feel?" Gao smiled and asked again.

"The whole is stronger than before."

"Have you thought about why?"

Ronaldo nodded silently, but made no sound.

He thought about it, that's why he sits here.

"Actually, I think that the strength of the team has not been fully released, and we still have considerable potential that has not been realized, such as you, such as Carlos, such as Robinho, Baptista and Cicinho. , you are all very good players, you all have a lot of individual ability and can give a huge help to the team."

Gao Shen's words changed, "Maybe you think what I said is a bit false, but think about it, if yesterday in Turin, when Juventus pressed heavily and attacked frantically, you were on our front line, you said "How dare Capello do this?"

"If at Highbury we start to suppress Arsenal's onslaught, Robinho can play, can play his dribbling and breakthrough advantages, you say, against Arsenal's defense will cause How big of a threat?"

Ronaldo stared at Gao Shen, and he suddenly understood that Gao Shen didn't understand them or didn't understand them, but he didn't use them.

He has also thought about these issues himself, that is, if he is allowed to replace Negredo, he may be able to seize some opportunities and score some goals, but he is absolutely impossible to run and press in a wide range like Negredo. , it is impossible to have so many physical confrontations with the opponent's central defender, consuming the opponent's physical strength.

The same is true for Robinho. It is impossible for him to actively retreat to the front of his own penalty area when defending, like Raul and Beckham, and take the initiative to participate in the counter-attack when he loses the ball. This is not the style of Brazilian players.

But this is what Gao Shen wanted.

In other words, this is the new trend in European football in the past two or three years.

Even in Barcelona, ​​which is known as the strongest in Europe, in addition to Ronaldinho, Eto'o, the genius Messi, Giuli, Deco, Xavi, Iniesta... Which of these players is not providing a lot of Running coverage and pressing down?

Real Madrid's superstars are getting old.

In the past, they all wanted to spend their days lying on the credit books, playing leisurely, earning high annual salaries, and winning championships by the way, but now, such good days no longer exist.

Zidane, Raul, Beckham, these superstars are fighting every game, Ronaldo can see it.

……

Gao Shen didn't say more, but silently waited for Ronaldo to take the initiative to speak again.

He has already expressed his attitude. I believe Ronaldo will understand what he means.

The key is, is Ronaldo willing?

There was silence in the office for nearly two minutes before Ronaldo raised his head again, looked directly at Gao Shen, and asked, "Do you think we can win the championship? La Liga, or the Champions League~www.wuxiax.com~ will do."

With a deep sigh, he shook his head and smiled, "Who knows?"

After a pause, he added: "In La Liga, we were ten points behind Barcelona, ​​but now, we have only five points left. If we can beat the opponent at Camp Nou, then we can narrow it to two points. But you know how hard it is, if we lose, we're eight points behind."

"There is also the Champions League. Our opponent is Juventus, one of the strongest, most balanced and comprehensive teams in European football, and Capello is also one of the best coaches in the world. You say, in the face of such a ball Team, who dares to say a sure win?"

"The quarter-finals are so difficult. How about entering the semi-finals? How about entering the finals?"

The Champions League has never been an easy task.

Every step is a huge test for the overall strength of the team and for everyone in the team.

Even if Juventus draws 0-0 away and returns to the Bernabeu, will Real Madrid win?

Gao Shen has indeed caught a fatal flaw in Juventus, but the question is, will Real Madrid be able to take advantage of it? Even if you make good use of it, will you be able to score goals?

Don't forget, Juventus also has the greatest super goalkeeper in the history of world football, Buffon!

The football field has never had the word "absolute".

"Ronnie." Gao Shen saw that Ronaldo fell into silence again, and he decided to break the silence.

"As your fan, I'm very much looking forward to seeing your performance on the pitch. As the team's head coach, I can also tell you for sure that Real Madrid needs you, but..."

Gao Shen's conversation turned abruptly, his eyes fixed on Ronaldo, and his tone became extremely firm.

"Real Madrid needs more cohesion, more unity, and more unity!"
