I Want to Be the King of Football

After the FIFA awards ceremony, it was almost midnight.

Su Dong and his party left the Zurich Opera House and returned to the hotel. Instead of going back to sleep, they went straight to the second half and celebrated Su Dong winning the World Player of the Year at the hotel bar.

This is the fourth time he has won the double football player.

Congratulations, brother! Ronnie hugged Su Dong's shoulders affectionately, One to four, you wait for me!

Messi smiled helplessly aside, You can be content, I'm still zero to four.

They are all buddies, and it is rare for them to have such an opportunity to get together, especially in the last two or three years, let alone get together, sometimes it is difficult to talk on the phone for long, and each other is very busy.

Needless to say, Su Dong, the daily schedule is full, the sponsor activities are all in sight, and Ronnie and Messi are not much better. When they reach their level of stars, it is completely their own time. really few.

During the competition, they are busy with training and competition every day. Where can they still have their own time?

Therefore, it is rare to get a piece together, and I am very happy in my heart.

Kaka and Harvey were familiar with them, but some of them couldn't chat, and they withdrew after a while.

Lucio refused even earlier, he had a generation gap with these young people.

Only Sudong, Ronnie, Messi and Iniesta persisted to the end.

From the bar to the open-air balcony, overlooking the beautiful night view of Zurich, it gives people a feeling of being familiar and forgetting when they have seen it. It may be in the house in the Parc des Nations in Lisbon, or it may be in the western suburbs of Barcelona. in the mountainside villa, or in Greenwald...

Do you still remember, I was in Barcelona that year, I just moved, you guys, Pepe, David Silva, and many others came over to celebrate for me, and finally slept directly on the balcony. Su Dong suddenly remembered that shared experience.

Of course I remember! Ronnie stood up and looked at the night scene from afar, At that time, you and Wang hadn't formally established a relationship yet, and you kidnapped other girls into the house and pretended to be cool over there. I said at the time, you are too No conscience, remember?

Messi and Iniesta nodded hastily, which was true at the time.

It turns out, I'm not wrong about you, you can't hide your little thoughts from me. Ronnie looked complacent as Su Dong's best friend, Wang is a good woman, you boy treats others well. better.

Agree! Iniesta said few harsh words and directly agreed.

Messi also kept nodding.

By the way, I remembered something. Iniesta suddenly woke up and looked at Ronnie, I remember, you, Jose, and Pepe, the three of you seemed to be saying something, you The wife is going to have a child for Su Dong, how are things going?

Everyone was stunned for a moment, then burst into laughter.

This is the legend, marrying Ronnie and having children for Su Dong.

Ronnie couldn't help laughing and leaned back and forth, and pushed Iniesta hard, blaming him for telling the embarrassing thing back then, but he didn't show weakness verbally, I'm sure I didn't. The question is, which one he likes, whatever.

How do you count as a girlfriend? You have to get married. Messi made up for it just right.

The crowd laughed again.

In fact, there were many absurd things that Su Dong and Ronnie did in those days.

For example, he encouraged Pepe to write a love letter to the female yoga instructor who was over 500 years old.

By the way, what's the name of that female yoga instructor... Su Dong frowned, thinking hard.

Melissa. Ronnie remembered.

Yes, Melissa, I remember, you said back then that if you achieved something in yoga, you would go back and chase after her.

Ronnie jumped immediately, damn it, this is no joke.

Did I say that?

How could I possibly be interested in a middle-aged woman in her forties?

you said before,

If you don't believe me, let's call Pepe. Su Dong is justified.

Ronnie hurriedly shook his head, I couldn't have said something like that, don't wrong me, and Melissa shouldn't be there anymore.

But in the end, he felt guilty.

Su Dong and others laughed for a while, and threatened to look for an opportunity to go to Madeira to look for Ronnie's first love.

I'm going, this word is going to spread, I'm ashamed!

Ronnie immediately intimidated the three of Su Dong and could not speak out anyway.

...

The biggest difference between professional players and entertainment stars is that professional players do not need personalities, they simply rely on their strength to speak.

It doesn't even matter if you lose.

Didn't someone say that?

The biggest taboo of professional players is cowardice. It is a big taboo to be timid before a fight. The second is vegetables, that is, lack of strength.

So many times, in some important games, players lose a mess, and fans think that the sky will be turned upside down, but in fact, it is not that serious, because as long as it is a game, there will always be winners and losers.

As long as you are not cowardly, as long as you do your best, you can lose with confidence.

Therefore, entertainment stars need personalities and fans, but professional players do not. They just need to play well and do their jobs well, no matter how much news you have off the court, even if you are cheating like Kahn. will still be forgiven.

Ronnie is exactly that.

At the level of Su Dong and the others, they no longer need to worry about their image. Their performance on the football field is their best image, so they can tease each other unscrupulously and dig out the embarrassment of each other back then.

This is more of a common memory for them.

Of course, these are all based on friendship.

…………

…………

After staying in Zurich for one night, Su Dong set off for Munich the next morning.

Ronnie and Messi also each returned to Spain.

The Bundesliga has been suspended, but this year's winter break is shorter than in previous years, with the second half starting on January 15th.

This is also because of the summer World Cup in South Africa.

The shrinking of the winter break is not necessarily a bad thing for Bayern.

Both Ribery and Robben have returned from injury and have participated in the team's joint training. Bayern's winter break will still be arranged in Dubai in the Middle East for winter training, which is also a regular operation every year.

Transfers during the winter break this year are a bit cold, not only in the Bundesliga, but also in the major European leagues.

On the one hand, it is because the winter break is not an important transfer window, and many blockbuster transfers will not be completed during the winter break, because the operation time is limited, and on the other hand, it can be clearly seen that with the The outbreak of the subprime mortgage crisis in the United States has deeply affected teams in major European leagues.

According to the survey by authoritative institutions, in addition to Bayern and Real Madrid, the growth rate of other giant teams has basically slowed down or even shrunk, such as the Red Devils Manchester United.

Bayern and Real Madrid’s contrarian growth is different. Real Madrid is because the team’s business shrunk so much during Calderon’s administration that this season Florentino has introduced a number of superstars in one breath and rebuilt it. Real Madrid's golden brand name, and then a substantial growth in the commercial field.

Bayern is stable and still growing every year, which is quite rare.

However, Bayern's business strategy now is a bit like storing food before hibernation. Everyone knows that Bayern has money, but the club is willing to continue to invest in the transfer market. On the contrary, during the winter break, Bayern will be Otter. Waiting for a group of players to directly clean up and leave the team to further simplify the lineup of the first team.

Regardless of the soup or the medicine, it is said that Hoeness is a diligent and thrifty housekeeper, and now he has replaced Nellinger, in fact, it is still the same.

Bayern's management has its own set of rules to constrain where to spend money and where to save the province. They are all clear, so that the entire Bundesliga during the winter break this year is basically very deserted. main.

The same goes for other leagues.

If Barcelona's plan to poach Cesc Fabregas fails, it is likely that the transfer of this winter break will not break 10 million, because so far, the most likely transaction in rumors is Liverpool's Dosena to Napoli , the transfer fee is expected to be five million euros, which is likely to become the king of the winter break.

Teams with money to buy people, including Manchester United's Ferguson, have come forward many times, making it clear that they will not sign in the winter break.

Originally, Manchester City's performance in the first half was not good. Many people thought that they would make signings, but as a result, Guardiola and Begiristan came forward one after another, saying that Manchester City would not make any moves during the winter break, which was quite surprising.

Even Manchester City, which has mines at home, doesn't buy anyone. What can other teams buy?

This should be the worst winter break transfer that Sudong has experienced since he landed in European football.

The entire transfer market is bleak, and it even makes people doubt that the summer transfer next year will continue to be sluggish?

...

Entering January, in the midst of bleakness, Bayern set off to Dubai in the Middle East and started winter training in a low-key manner.

In ten days, he came to the Middle East twice, and Bayern is still popular among Dubai fans.

Last time was in Abu Dhabi, this time in Dubai.

Staying in a familiar hotel and renting a familiar training venue, Bayern has been training in the Middle East for many years. Due to the relatively short winter break this year, Bayern only plans to play a warm-up match in the Middle East and then return to Europe.

The second warm-up match is in Switzerland, away to Basel.

The team has achieved good results and the training atmosphere in the team is also good. Heynckes even opened a curfew to allow players to exceed a point, but there is a requirement that everyone must act collectively and not act without authorization.

In other words, after a while, you still want to go out and wave, you can, bring the whole team.

This move immediately activated the atmosphere of the whole team, and all the players welcomed it.

Thousands of miles away from home, the training camp is hard, and proper relaxation is still good for the players.

Heynckes obviously also hopes that the team can combine work and rest, get news in the training camp, and strive to play better in the second half, especially for seriously injured numbers like Ribery and Robben.

They both missed too many games in the first half.

The genius doctor Wolfart received a task during the winter break training, focusing on training Ribery and Robben to keep them away from injuries.

Otherwise, when it comes to the knockout stage, the pressure on Bayern will be even greater.
