Chapter 159 Unexpected Start

Until the next morning, when Long Bisheng left the dormitory to participate in the warm-up training before the competition, he still remembered what Li Fang said last night in his mind.

"We Chinese are nostalgic for the past and don't want to stay away from home, and we also don't want to leave a place we are used to easily...Although the situation in Perugia was very bad at the time, the finances were chaotic, and my salary was not high, but if they could stay in Serie A, I would definitely choose to stay, unless there is no longer my main position there. It is a pity that they were relegated, not only to Serie B, but directly to Serie C II - just like Florence back then. I am not a veteran like Di Livio, I also do I would rather play for Fiorentina without salary than him. So when Fiorentina’s invitation came, I agreed without saying a word, because I was still young and needed to find my own future, and I couldn’t let myself be rotten in the second league of Serie C. The boss once said that being a professional player is not to play for other things, but to play for yourself. Aaron, if you need to make choices in this area in the future, you must remember to choose the choice that allows you to develop better—this is for yourself and for you to play football since childhood Hard work is not in vain but responsible.”

"Of course, I'm not telling you to leave Naples now... I think Naples is suitable for you now. You can play games and slowly adapt to European football from a less intense competitive environment. What I mean is that in the future, if the club cannot guarantee you enough game time, then choose to leave, and don't let yourself lose the opportunity to move forward for the sake of unilateral loyalty. No matter how human a club is, human touch is only for players who are useful to the club, such as Inter Milan. Do your best to help him heal and pay him the same salary, but when he recovers from his heart disease and cannot play the main force, he will still be sold. Loyalty is always two-sided. Your strength is enough to gain a foothold in the team, and your loyalty will be meaningful.”

Long Bisheng listened to this passage, but he didn’t continue to think about this question soon—because this question was far away from him, at least he was satisfied with the current situation, no matter in the process of competition, training or watching the game from the sidelines, he always felt that he could learn something new, and this feeling made him very comfortable and fulfilling.

As always, he was still the first person to come to the training ground. After he had been training alone for nearly an hour, other teammates arrived to start training one after another.

Chu Ran yawned and came to Long Bisheng's side, doing training lazily. He was naturally lethargic, so in order not to be late in the morning, he was basically cut off from nightlife.

"Where's Li Fang?" Chu Ran asked Long Bisheng while warming up.

"Brother Li Dafang told me to leave him alone. He will go to Naples by himself, watch the game live in the afternoon, and come to us after watching the game." Long Bisheng replied.

"Oh, that's fine, we definitely don't have time to accompany him on the day of the game, this guy knows what he's interested in," Chu Ran said.

Long Bisheng smiled and said nothing, Chu Ran continued to look around, and then he suddenly said "Huh", "Why hasn't Robert come yet? The training time has come."

Hearing the sound, Long Bisheng raised his head and looked around. With his height, he could see all the mountains at a glance: "Yeah, I really didn't see him? Could it be that he is still in the locker room?"

Chu Ran yelled at Grava who had just come out of the locker room from a distance: "Hey, Gianluca! Is Robert in the locker room?"

"No, I was the last one to come out of the locker room." Grava shook his head.

Other players have also noticed this-they know Sosa usually likes to go to the casino. Will he linger in the casino at this moment?impossible?Today is a game that may be upgraded in advance. No one wants to miss this game-especially before the game, Rea has confirmed that Sosa will start this game.

When the players thought about this question, Rea had already come to the training ground with the assistant coach.

The players noticed that Rhea's face was not very good-looking, and soon, Rhea revealed the mystery for them: "Last night, Robert fell while taking a shower in the bathroom...his thigh was broken. If he wants to appear on the court again, it will be a matter of next season."

"Oh, poor Robert." Some players couldn't help shouting.

"It's a pity that this situation happened in the key game of promotion... But there is no way, this is God's arrangement." Reya shook his head: "We have changed the starting list... Long, you start today and replace Robert's position."

************************************************
"Aaron, your luck is really good." Standing at the entrance of the player's tunnel, Chu Ran still wanted to laugh when he thought of Sosa's inexplicable injury: "It seems that you are really going to be the last player to wear the No. [-] jersey of Naples... Really... You didn't want to buy a few lottery tickets?"

"I'm wondering if I should choose number 30 as my lucky number." Long Bisheng smiled silly. He really didn't expect that he would have such an honor and opportunity, but he quickly looked at Chu Ran suspiciously.

"You didn't do anything in Robert's bathroom, did you?" He asked something that almost made Chu Ran lose his breath.

"Who do you think I am? Superman is Zero Zero Seven, and Shiqian is the horse-stealing Dou Erdun? Sneak into Robert's house quietly to set him up? Damn, if I have this ability, why would I play football? I would have robbed thousands of families and become a thief!" Chu Ran cursed immediately after recovering: "Instead of having time to think about these things, it's better to focus on the game! It really pissed me off!"

Long Bisheng smiled awkwardly: "I'm sorry, Brother Chu Ran, I just asked casually..."

"Damn it, you're really calling out for your brother and pulling a knife out of your pocket..." Chu Ran said angrily, "Forget it, let's not take it as an example, let's think about how to compete...Also, even though Robert is absent for the rest of the game, if you don't perform well on the court, you may not be able to finish the rest of the game as the main force... Other forwards are also thinking about this honor!"

"I know." Long Bisheng nodded and focused on the upcoming match.

The teammates next to each other looked at each other. The conversation between Chu Ran and Long Bisheng was in Chinese, and they couldn’t understand it. They thought that the two compatriots had a conflict. Some of them were more familiar with them and planned to go up to persuade them to fight. As a result, the two of them were chatting and laughing in the blink of an eye, and the others sighed in their hearts at the same time—Chinese people are really strange...

************************************************
Li Fang sat in a corner of the Sao Paulo stands, staring at the familiar dark red jersey on the field with some ecstasy—it was the jersey he wore for two full seasons. In the first season, he and his teammates even scored in the Intertoto Cup, but in the second season, he suffered the fate of relegation—two years, for a player, is almost equal to one-sixth of his career, and those are more than 700 unforgettable days and nights...

The crazy shouts from the surrounding Naples fans brought him back to his senses. Li Fang laughed at himself. The Perugia on the field is not the previous Perugia. Although the jersey is still the same as before, but the prefix of the former Perugia team name is "FC", which is the abbreviation of English football club, and the prefix of the current Perugia team name is "AC", which is the abbreviation of Italian football club. complete split...

At this time, the passionate voice of the commentator sounded in the sky above the San Paolo Stadium. He used the sensational voice unique to Italian commentators to report the names of the Naples players one by one. Every time a name was announced, there would be huge cheers from the fans in the San Paulo Stadium.

Soon, Li Fang heard Long Bisheng's name shouted by the commentator. The cheers in the stadium stopped for a while, and then continued to ring. However, almost all Naples fans were wondering why the top scorer Sosa didn't play in this game?Although the young striker Long performed very well in the previous game, but in such a game where he might succeed in advance if he wins, the head coach Rhea would choose Long Bisheng instead of Sosa?
Li Fang also frowned, but he quickly figured out the problem. In such a game, even if it was just for honor, Rhea would arrange for Sosa to play, because Sosa made the most contribution among the forwards in the previous game, and he deserved such an honor. But the fact is that Long Bisheng became the starter, so there can only be one problem-Sousa has some problems and cannot play, and Rhea will choose Sosa's best substitute, Long Bisheng, to play.

After thinking about this problem, Li Fang smiled slightly, put his hands behind his head, and stretched comfortably.

Aaron, Aaron, your kid's luck seems to be pretty good. If you perform well in such a game, in addition to increasing your weight in the eyes of the head coach, you can also improve your status in the eyes of the fans. To know a player's status in the club, in addition to his own strength and the appreciation of the coach, whether the fans love it is also a very important weight.

Come on, Aaron, I hope that through your own efforts, you can appear in Serie A in the next few years. At that time, whether it is with you as a teammate or as an opponent, it will be a very meaningful thing.
