i am quaresma

Chapter 9 Let's practice martial arts, boy

On the plane back to Portugal, all the players were a little depressed. They knew better than others how the game was going.

"Although I am also new here, I know what Porto's tough style of play is like. If we continue to play like this, I am afraid this season will be over!"

Pepe sat next to Quaresma, leaned his head over and whispered to Quaresma, with a very firm tone.

Quaresma probably remembers that after Porto won the Triple Crown, it seems that not only will they be out of the Champions League early in the next season, but also the league will not win the championship. If his memory is correct, then Del Neri's coaching in Porto is really good. Not on success.

But this issue is obviously not what he should worry about.

So what if you worry, will club chairman Da Costa listen to your opinion and invite Mourinho back?
"If you have that spare time, let's think about how to improve your defensive ability. I can't bear to watch how you have been blown up by other forwards in these few games!" Quaresma hit mercilessly Pepe.

Pepe blushed and was blown away by the opponent's striker. Is it just his problem?

Keeping his own defender facing the opponent's attack directly, the entire team's defense has problems, so he can't be the only one to blame.

Of course, Pepe also wants to complain about Quaresma's performance, don't you have nothing outstanding, just an assist with an outside instep, are you worthy of the fans' expectations of you?
But he still didn't say this, because he also vaguely felt that Quaresma seemed to be deliberately suppressing his desire to attack. If he let go, his destructive power would definitely not stop there.

Quaresma wants to be alone and think about the problem, but Pepe seems to have a cancer in his mouth, and he keeps talking. Refer to Gatlin who is in blue fire, and it is probably in Pepe's mouth The speed at which words emerge is comparable to that of Gatling.

"I'm thinking how to increase my deterrence on the court. It's best to make the opponent's forwards dare not attack when they see me. Wouldn't that make me invincible?"

Pepe's daydreams are so beautiful that Quaresma doesn't even bother to complain about him.

I haven't heard of a defender who is too intimidating on the field, and the opponent's forward dare not attack.
Besides, is your image fierce enough? Do you have any doubts in your mind?

It's almost time for contraception!
However, in order not to make it too embarrassing for Pepe to talk to himself, and for the purpose of teasing Pepe, Quaresma opened his mouth to point out a clear way for Pepe.

"You can practice martial arts, but don't practice Sanda boxing and Taekwondo, those things won't work."

"You should have heard of Huaxia Kungfu, right? It's similar to Bruce Lee's."

"As long as you practice hard and persevere, I dare not say that you can fly over the wall, and it is no problem for one person to hit ten!"

"Think about it, you can hit ten by yourself, and other people's forwards can't go around when they see you?"

"So, go practice martial arts, boy!"

Originally, Quaresma was just making a small joke, which was harmless, but what he never expected was that as soon as he finished speaking, both Pepe's eyes began to light up, and he swore that they really did.

What Quaresma didn't know was that his unintentional words seemed to open the door to a new world for Pepe. Inside the door was the ideal world that Pepe wanted to pursue.

"Chinese Kungfu?"

"Ok!"

"When I get back, I'll find a martial arts gym and practice hard!"

Pepe has already made up his mind. He swears that he never made such a big determination when he was practicing.

Quaresma didn't know how much trouble he caused by a single word, but it didn't matter if he knew.

Monk Pepe went down the mountain early!

Isn't this fun!

Back in Portugal, because the team did not play the effect that Del Neri wanted in several games, the first team did not get a day off, and started training directly the next day.

This is exactly what Quaresma wanted. He has no place to vent his strength now.

However, due to the poor performance in the series, the media and public opinion are very unfriendly to Porto. Verbal criticism has almost become a daily routine, and there is no way to criticize Porto and their coaches and players every day. Readers love to read these, even reporters. To bite the bullet, I have to write this against my conscience.

Criticize Del Neri from a tactical point of view today, and predict when the Italian will dismiss get out of class;

Tomorrow, I will pull out Porto's defense line to criticize it, denounce them for losing the toughness of last season, and then predict that Porto will collapse from the defense line in the new season;
The day after tomorrow, Porto's offense will be belittled to nothing. Of course, this point has been recognized by everyone;

Anyway, if you only read the newspapers, then you may come to a conclusion-Porto is going to be relegated!
Anyone can be alarmist, and it is also true to tell lies with your eyes open. The important thing is that as long as there are sales, the media are all like this.

But what Quaresma didn't expect was that the media might have hacked Porto as a whole, and they couldn't find any more black spots after digging three feet, so they found another way and pulled themselves out and hacked again. Fan.
"Ball" is considered the largest mainstream football newspaper in Portugal. Regarding Quaresma's embarrassment of being kicked out by Barcelona, ​​and the fact that Quaresma's performance in these warm-up matches is not convincing, it is no wonder they can let it go.

"A failed La Liga season seems to have proved that Quaresma is not capable of gaining a foothold in the giants. He has turned all our expectations of him into naught!"

"Compared to Ronaldinho, who has established himself at Manchester United and played well in the European Cup, Quaresma, another of the Sporting Lisbon twin stars, is no longer worthy of our expectations!"

"Judging from Quaresma's performance in several warm-up matches, we really can't find the genius who was full of spirituality. Mediocrity has become Quaresma's true label."

"The journey of failure in Barcelona will become an unbreakable curse in his heart. The nightmare has always affected him. When the talent has been exhausted and can no longer be transformed into strength, Quaresma will be at best a Portuguese Super League player in the future." The level of the main players of the team may not even be able to keep the main position in Porto!"

Under the guidance of "Ball", a wave of bad-mouthing Quaresma hit like this. If you didn't know the specific experience of Quaresma before, I'm afraid you wouldn't think that he just returned to the Portuguese Super League from La Liga, but Immediately preparing to retire.

Quaresma couldn't imagine why he became a shooting star that everyone would cast aside overnight?

This is the power of public opinion, it can kill people!
It seems that I should make my own voice.
