I Want to Be the King of Football

Andre Cruz's remarks brought too much surprise to Su Dong.

So much so that when he returned home that night, he actually fell asleep.

This is really unusual for Su Dong, who has always been sleepy and has a high quality of sleep.

He lay in bed all night, on his side, through the open curtains, looking out at the Tagus River.

Cruise's analysis of players makes sense. Some players are born at the core, such as Zidane, who was born to play that kind of core player, and some players are doomed no matter how well they do it. Only as a supporting role.

Generally speaking, core players are generally in the middle.

Although Zidane is on the left, he actually plays the role of an attacking midfielder on the left.

Kluivert is indeed one of the best centers in the world, as are players such as Vieri, Crespo, Trezeguet, Ruud van Nistelrooy, Makai, etc. But if you analyze it carefully, it is not difficult to find that the Ruivert's style of play is completely different from theirs.

From Ajax to the Netherlands national team, he is like the center of the team's frontcourt, all the players around him are revolving around him, he is like a key node, everyone will follow his movements and wishes. for reference.

Of course, the premise is that he has this all-round ability and excellent physical fitness.

So does he have this ability first, or does Ajax train him according to the team's tactical needs?

This should be a no-brainer answer.

But what is certain is that Kluivert is indeed a near-perfect center.

Cruise suggested that Su Dong learn from Kluivert, which is a kind of affirmation and encouragement to him.

The Brazilian veteran is 33 years old. At the end of the conversation, he told Sudong that after this season, he will leave Sporting Lisbon, leave European football, and return to his hometown in Brazil.

The reason why he told Su Dong so much was because he felt that Su Dong had such potential and aptitude.

This made Su Dong a little flattered and confused at the same time.

He is just a professional rookie who has just debuted. Some people say he looks like Batistuta, and Cruise says he looks like Kluivert. Who is he like?

Or, he doesn't look like anyone?

…………

…………

The next morning, Su Dong rarely stayed in bed.

This surprised both Ronnie and Semedo, especially when they saw Su Dong's bloodshot eyes, they were stunned.

You have to be more restrained. Doing too much of that kind of thing will hurt your health. Semedo reminded righteously.

In the face of jokes, Su Dong was too lazy to answer.

After washing and changing clothes, Pontes' car arrived.

All the way to Alcochete without a word.

Ronnie and Semedo rushed to get out of the car, while Su Dong stopped Pontes in the parking lot and told him his confusion.

Cruise's career has not been very successful, but I didn't expect that he is still a smart player. Pontes was a little surprised.

Cruz is a white Brazilian, but his style of play doesn't seem smart.

At least in the AC Milan team, Cruz has never been the main force. He has always been pressed by seniors such as Maldini and Costacurta, so that he did not play many games in his two-year red and black tour, and finally transferred. Went to Standard Liege to regain some status.

Actually, he is right. The core player is much higher than the role player in terms of tactical value and historical status, but you have to understand that it is not so easy to become a core player.

It's like Kluivert, he can be the core at Ajax, but when he got to AC Milan, Capello couldn't give him such a position, plus the chaos in the dressing room, so he was not as good as before. In Barcelona, ​​the situation is also not very good,

Van Gaal trusted him, but his situation went from bad to worse after Van Gaal was dismissed.

Su Dong understood what Pontes meant.

The requirements for the core players of the giant teams are particularly high. Only those top stars in the world are qualified to serve as the core of the giants, especially the offensive core of the frontcourt.

As strong as Kluivert, in Barcelona, ​​can not get enough trust.

I understand, this is too far. Su Dong is not stupid, he is not too ambitious, but because Sporting Lisbon's traditional formation is also four-three-three, and also needs a center, just like Ajax.

Pontes smiled, You know why Boloni doesn't like Jardel?

Su Dong shook his head, he also found it strange.

Jardel is the team's top scorer with high scoring efficiency and is very familiar with the Portuguese Super League. In order to get him, Sporting Lisbon even exchanged three main players such as Mponza. Why is such a player not accepted? What does Boloni like?

Like Cruise said, he only scores goals.

Su Dong was a little stunned, but soon figured it out.

Actually, as early as when Jardel played for Porto, many powerful teams have paid attention to him. He scored very efficiently, but gradually, everyone realized that he can only score goals. Except for goals, other Can't do it well, not even do it.

Su Dong felt that this should be the reason why Jardel went to Turkey after leaving Porto instead of landing in the four major leagues. After going to Turkey, he wanted to return to the mainstream leagues, but there were no four major leagues. The team is willing to get him, and finally can only return to Sporting Lisbon.

Age, salary and transfer fees are all reasons, but only in part.

In the final analysis, he is not enough.

The weight here includes the strength and tactical value of the players.

Even in the winter break, he scored crazy goals, but in the end no team was willing to bid for him and take him away from the Portuguese Super League.

It's not that other teams are blind and don't know the goods, but because there are many players who can replace Jardel.

Core players are irreplaceable, and role players are just a handful.

According to the rumors, the closest Inter Milan to him are Ronaldo, Vieri, Recoba, Ventola, Pandev, Martins, Adriano and Caron. There are so many masters in the offensive line. Do they need Jardel?

If you ask me for my opinion, I can only say that different coaches have different views on players, they will use them according to their own preferences, or even transform players, but players should also have their own opinions in their hearts. That's what kind of player do you want to be?

Pele is scoring a lot of goals, but that's not the main reason why he became the top player. Maradona didn't become the top player because of his goals, nor did Ronaldo and Zidane.

In the football field, you still have to rely on your strength to speak. Whether you want to be a role player or a core player, in the final analysis, only when you have the strength will you have the opportunity to prove your worth.

It's like cooking an egg, you first have to make it clear that you want to boil an egg, then you need an egg, a pot, water and a gas stove, you have it all, put the ingredients in and start cooking, But you need to wait, wait for the water temperature to rise, wait for the water to boil, and the eggs will slowly cook.

The whole process is indispensable, but at the end of the day, you have an idea to boil an egg.

Su Dong understood a little.

What Pontes said was actually telling him that he was nobody.

Neither Batistuta nor Kluivert, he is Sudong, the unique Sudong.

Anyone who wants to be someone else is only doomed to be a failure.

After clarifying this point, Su Dong should figure out what kind of player he wants to be?

After figuring it out, he can work hard in this direction to improve and improve himself.

As for when the egg can be cooked, it depends on when Su Dong prepares the ingredients, when it is put into the pot, and when it is boiled.

There is no rush to do this step by step.

Ronnie is in a hurry. He is looking for opportunities every day and wants to show his face in front of the coaching staff. He can't wait to become a first-team player, which may not be a good thing.

From the communication with Pontes, Su Dong also noticed that Boloni's requirements for the center are not just goals.

It is estimated that this is why he suppressed Jardel and reused Nikulei at the beginning of the season. Later, after his poor performance, he did not hesitate to change to a double forward and did not easily let Jardel serve as a single forward.

He vaguely sensed that this might be his chance.

Thank you, Lionel. Su Dong felt his heart break loose.

Pontes smiled, Don't thank me, you already have the answer.

How? Su Dong was curious.

The reason Virgos get tangled is because you want everything.

Su Dong laughed awkwardly.

Virgo men are so unpretentious and boring.

…………

…………

After Su Dong clarified his ideas, the special training plan tailored for him by Pontes will also be changed accordingly.

For example, the intensity of physical training has been increased from two classes per week to four classes per week.

Originally Su Dong wanted to train every day, but Pontes rejected Su Dong's proposal on the grounds of physical fatigue.

There is also the training on the ability of the center, which Cruise promised to help.

The veteran Brazilian central defender promised that if Su Dong wanted, he could stay with him every afternoon after training. This is definitely a super VIP treatment. Pontes needs to arrange some training items and equipment.

The content of the training mainly focuses on the use of the body, holding the ball with your back under high pressure, and turning around to get rid of the ball after holding the ball, etc.

The center is always active in the area where the opponent's defense is the most dense. He is like a thick rivet. He must be able to be firmly nailed to the most deadly position in the opponent's defensive position to play a threat.

This is the most difficult position to play on the field, and it is also the position that requires the most ability of the players.

In addition, Pontes also suggested that Su Dong read the first-team scouting report every week, as well as the opponent's defensive player's report and some game videos provided by the scout for the striker, which would allow him to better understand the opponent, Improve his tactical literacy and game analysis ability.

But these alone, Su Dong felt that it was not enough.

So he entered the system store of the road to the king, and began to look for a star ability card that suits him.
