The days of playing football with Da Luo

Chapter 445 Captain
Now Ricardo has passed the age where he should be trembling in front of the head coach.

The Golden Globe Award, the halo of the World Player of the Year, the honor of the Triple Crown, the Serie A champion, and the La Liga champion, the top scorer in Serie A, the top scorer in La Liga, the top scorer in the history of the Copa America...

A string of honors has made him one of the most recognizable stars on the planet.

He can play with his personality and big names, and he can ignore any head coach. He has the qualifications.

On the contrary, any head coach needs to take care of his emotions, his status in the locker room, and seriously consider any of his demands.

However, Licado politely asked Dunga to sit down, and said with a smile, "Boss, what do you want to talk to us about?"

Dunga glanced around the room and answered irrelevant questions: "My teammates are all out to have fun, why don't you go? Venezuelan girls are passionate, beautiful, and very relaxed."

"I'm married, sir," Kaka smiled shyly, "I'm very loyal to marriage."

Ricardo smiled: "Compared to women, I am more interested in football."

"That's good," Dunga nodded with satisfaction, "But on the night of winning the championship, you are still nesting in your room and not getting together with your teammates. Wouldn't that be too good?"

Licado said domineeringly: "I have my own style and habits, everyone knows it, no one will say anything."

Kaka also found it funny.Ronaldo and Ronaldinho did not join this team. Veterans such as Cafu and Roberto Carlos have withdrawn from the national team. Veterans such as Gilberto and Gilberto Silva lack prestige. Not to mention the players, although Ricardo is young, he is the player with the highest status in the world in this team, and no one dares to make irresponsible remarks to him.

"Although I try to play down my personal heroism when facing the media," Dunga looked at Licado and smiled at Kaka again, "But I know very well that we can win the championship this time, you two He is the biggest contributor."

"No, we are a strong team," Ricardo laughed. "Even without me and Kaka, there will be others who will step up and lead the team to the championship."

He is not just talking about it. In another time and space, although the Brazilian team did not have him or Kaka, Robinho and Baptista still successfully won the Copa America.

Kaka also nodded in agreement.

Of course Dunga didn't know about the other time and space.Hearing what Ricardo said, he could only think that these two stars were very humble, which made him even more satisfied.

"Listen, I'm thinking about one thing," Dunga said seriously, putting away his smile. "Ronnie is getting old and recovering from such a serious injury. I think it will be difficult for him to return to the peak……"

"He will return to the peak." Ricardo interrupted him.

Dunga was not displeased.He had long heard that the brothers Riccardo and Ronaldo had a deep relationship. "Sorry, maybe I worded it poorly. But age is the enemy of all athletes, isn't it? And, even if Ronnie is the best shooter in the world, his character, his style of play, make him unsuitable for a team. Captain of the team."

"team leader?"

"Yes, captain," Dunga said, "can you take on this responsibility?"

Ricardo was silent.Saying yes would seem too immodest.To say no, is against my heart.

"I hope you agree," Dunga looked at Kaka again, "and you are the second captain in my mind. I hope you can play a leadership role, lead the team to the World Cup qualifiers, and lead us into the World Cup. "

"This is a major decision, sir," Ricardo said, "I need to think carefully, and I think you also need to think carefully."

"Me too. I need to think about it. I'm not sure I'll be a qualified second captain." Kaka nodded in agreement.

Dunga smiled: "I have seriously considered it. Believe me, I see leadership qualities in you. You can make good captains."

After a pause, Dunga said again: "This Copa America, my tactics are basically centered on you, and you have lived up to my expectations and handed in a perfect answer sheet. Even if Ronnie and Ronaldinho is back, I think I will still let you be the core of the team."

This time Ricardo did not refuse.He likes the feeling of being the core.As for Ronaldo... just feed him the ball yourself.

"no problem."

"You guys have to stay in shape. I don't want you to rise up and fall quickly like some of your predecessors. Stay away from alcohol, drugs, nightclubs, and women. Listen, I'm right You have high expectations and I hope to lift the 2010 World Cup with you. Don't let me down!"

Licado smiled and said, "I will do what I should do."

Kaka also nodded: "Me too."

"Okay," Dunga got up and said, "Then I won't disturb your entertainment, enjoy it!"

After Dunga left, Kaka said, "Licardo, are you willing to be the captain?"

"Why not," Ricardo said lightly, "Do you think I can be a good captain?"

"Of course!" Kaka said seriously, "As Mr. Dunga said, you are actually very charismatic! I think you can be a good captain. Ronnie is a good player, but he may not be a good captain. Good captain. He's not committed enough in training and not very talkative in games."

"Then I'll try it." Licado smiled.

"I will support you."

"Of course you have to support me, because you are the second captain."

"Me? Can I really do it? I don't think I'm good enough to be the captain." Kaka seemed a little unconfident.

"Of course you are not now," Licado analyzed. "The captain can't be a good man, and he can't think that no one will offend. But the captain must be able to deal with each other, and be able to adjust the conflicts between the team members. Sometimes, the captain You have to help the head coach to suppress some players; sometimes, the captain has to represent the players and put pressure on the head coach. You don’t have these qualities yet.”

Kaka said discouragedly: "Sure enough, I'm still not suitable to be the captain."

"But these can all be learned," Licado said with a smile, "Don't panic, just promise Dunga first, and I will teach you how to be a good captain."

"How do you know so much?" Kaka was a little puzzled, "You are 4 years younger than me. And you have never been the captain, right? I remember that you never were the captain when you were in the Sao Paulo youth echelon."

Licado smiled: "Maybe I am better at observing than you. I have been paying attention to how the team captain handles various conflicts. I am learning while observing."

Kaka was thoughtful: "Then I have to start studying."
