ball magic

Before the Raphaelites left the country, the Argentine media launched a new wave of "God-making" movement vigorously.

Which country's media in the world is the best at blowing it up?

This is undoubtedly the originator of the paparazzi. The British Fleet Street claims to be second. Who dares to be the king?

The Argentine media is not that good at blowing it up, but the wonderful Argentine media also has its own awesomeness. They are good at-bombing the whole country!

Let’s take players’ birthdays as an example. Maradona’s birthday is a national concern. Basically all the pages are dedicated to the old horse, and the president has to go back a little bit.

Is this just for old horses?

No.

For example, for Ortega, on his birthday this year, the media planned and held a party, which was very grand. As long as the Argentines are not isolated from the world, they will know that your birthday is today.

This may make players from other countries envious.

And this time it is Rafael who enjoys the "god-making" treatment. Whether it is "Ole", "Clarion" or turning on the TV, whether they like it or hate it, it is difficult for Argentines to ignore "Raphael" today. El Rodriguez" name.

Even Aimar and Saviola became popular.

The reason is very simple. Rafael has no experience of being called up by the national youth team, so how did he know Aimar and Saviola?He also gave Aimar his "commemorative ball"?

At this time, Saviola's friend who had been a "leading party" for Aimar to go deep into "Area 31", but finally left Aimar to sneak away, stood up and accepted the reporters' interviews.

So about Rafael and Aimar, the "friendship" between the teenagers who once belonged to Boca and River Plate respectively was dug out.

Aimar turned on the TV when he got home and saw this series of reports. If he could calm down after seeing the reports of the "Leading Party", but seeing the "two or three things" nonsense behind him, even an honest person like him would be angry. Dropped the TV.

And what about Raphael?

He washed the jersey happily, and entrusted the hotel to dry it after washing his hands. He wrote his signature and date on his chest, and gave the jersey in the box to his sister early the next morning.

Veronica cried with joy!

Javier cried enviously!

Oriol looked at this wretch sympathetically, thinking that he was a child picked up by Iglesias' family.

But the warm moment is only for a moment, because they still have to hurry to catch the plane.

In the airport waiting room, unfortunately, he met his teammates from the national team.

Veronica naturally wanted to sign Simeone, Batty and others. At this time, Mr. Zanetti came to Rafael and whispered to him: "Jersey——"

Raphael looked at him vigilantly, he would not give it to Zanetti!

Seeing his eyes, Zanetti whispered: "You obviously put it in my bag, don't pretend not to know. You owe me a jersey, and I will ask you for a special one."

After "Honest Man" finished speaking, he waved to Raphael in the sound of the radio, and then dragged Batty to the boarding gate.

Simeone looked at Raphael suspiciously, and Raphael said coldly: "This is what you said 'You can even bully Zanetti?'"

"Did you bully him? When? Didn't I say you bullied him to be careful?" Simeone was both innocent and curious.

Raphael ignored him.

After flying to Madrid, Rafael had to separate from his sister. He had to transfer to La Coruña overnight to attend the next day's training on time.

At this time, the benefits of having a younger brother are reflected. The younger brother Juan, naturally has to saddle his thighs, and of course picking up the plane is a no-brainer.

After a night's rest, Raphael returned to the team as scheduled.

When Toshack heard from the security guard at the training camp that Rafael got up at 6 a.m. again, he felt very sad.

People are troubled by the indulgence and disobedience of players. For example, Ferguson of Manchester United has to go to the bar to catch the disobedient little bastard who secretly drinks. What about him?He is troubled by young players who work too hard.

Yes, Lao Tuo plans to rotate Raphael again.

In his opinion, compared to Rafael's future, his golden boot battle with Ronaldo is not important.

But Raphael will definitely not be happy, so he has to be smarter at this time.

Unbeknownst to Raphael, Torto's decision to hold back, he's actually bothering his mean-spirited teammates.

Up to Fran, and then to Jaminya, one counts as another, and they are all sour and cheap, and they want him to treat them.

Is Raphael petty?Of course not, but the tone and expression of these people made him not want to cooperate, so he put on an unmoved face and let them chatter aside.

But after a while, he was annoyed by these people's croaking, so he simply treated guests to change his cleanliness.

Everyone shouted and dispersed, but Raphael received a mission failure reminder from "Rabbit"——

The 23-man roster for the Golden Globes was announced today, and he was not included in the 23-man roster.

Raphael didn't care either.

Being selected to the 50-man squad is already a recognition of his strength. As for the 23-man squad, it is only because he has participated in too few games. Next year's list, he can easily enter the top 10.

Raphael is so confident.

Until the home game day on November 11, he was not included in the starting roster, but had to be a substitute.

This makes him million!point!No!quick!

Camille once again felt the covetousness from the bench and was speechless.

But Tenerife is too disappointing!After both coach Valdano and core Redondo were poached by Real Madrid, they went from a team that could play in the European War (UEFA Europa League) to a team with a big belly.

Depor easily won the game at home with a score of 4:2. Although Rafael was staring at Laoto's back and was about to see through the water, he could only resign himself to his fate and sit side by side with Rivaldo on the bench until the end of the game.

In mid-November, the list of Golden Globes has been narrowed down to 11 people, which still has nothing to do with Rafael, but Ronaldo is one of the biggest favorites to win the award.

Depor ushered in the league rival Zaragoza.

In this game, Rafael was finally able to start, and the depression of being pressed on the bench all turned into his desire to score goals, coupled with the "small goals" in his heart, so Rafael simply ate today. Eat alone, wear a hat again!

By the beginning of December, Depor continued to lead the standings and was expected to become the half-time champion.It is also because of Depor's stable output that Real Madrid coach Fabio Capello and Barcelona coach Robson are having a hard time.

What the fans are looking forward to is that the Ballon d'Or will be announced, the winter break is coming, and the winter transfer window is about to open. Can they keep Rafael?

Depor fans are not unreasonable to worry, but they also know the difficulties of small teams.It is unrealistic to keep Rafael forever. They only hope to let Rafael stay for one or two more seasons, which doubles the pressure on Rendoiro——

In the final analysis, he is only the elected chairman.Even though the team is no longer a membership club, he is still elected as the chairman.

So Rendoiro had to assure the fans that Rafael would not leave this winter, absolutely not.

The fans are still dissatisfied, so what about summer?

Summer is not far away, but how can Rendoiro guarantee it?He now only expects Depor to win more honors this season.

On December 12th, Depor ushered in the last round before the winter break.

This is the 16th round of La Liga, and they played away against sp Gijon.

Raphael cherishes this game very much, because after playing this game, it will be 2 weeks before he wants to play football. If he wants to play, he may have to wait for a full month.

So he cherishes it so much. A careerist like Rivaldo also has the same idea as Rafael. The two broke out and jointly scored 5 goals to help Deportivo win the half-time championship.

At this time, their biggest rivals Real Madrid have fallen behind them by 6 points.

After the game, the winter break officially arrived.

The next day, on December 12, "French Football" announced the winner of the Ballon d'Or: Because Germany won the European Cup, Sammer defeated Ronaldo and was awarded this year's Mr. Ballon d'Or.

This is a day worth remembering, because this is the coronation of the last "scavenger" in football.

As Sammer's career comes to an end, the "scavenger" tactic will also disappear in football.

How will you spend your 2 weeks vacation?

Because this year's winter break will end before Christmas, Rafael will still be on the team during Christmas, so he doesn't feel much about the two-week holiday, neither wanting to think about Madrid nor returning to Argentina.

But Oriol and Anderson don't allow the only client to spend their precious vacation like this.

"We've had lots and lots of offers and people who want to see you and I've turned them down. But you should always know which teams aren't interested in you - even if you're not going to move," Anderson said.

In addition, Veronica was busy with work, but wanted to see him very much, what else could Rafael do, he could only pack his luggage and fly to Madrid to meet his sister, and deal with work by the way.

When Raphael came to Madrid, he realized why the Anderson brothers had to let him come once.

"Let's briefly talk about the teams that are interested in you, although you may not want to know about this for the time being." The president of Milan, Moratti, is the most active, they all want to talk to you, and even hope to meet you during this winter break, but I refused."

"The second is Real Madrid, but I doubt whether Real Madrid has the money to buy someone." Anderson's expression was indifferent, as if he had said something very ordinary.

This may be unimaginable for Real Madrid fans in later generations, but this is the fact. Today's Real Madrid is heavily in debt. Mendoza, who was re-elected as chairman four times, could not handle this aspect well, and finally had to resign sadly.

Anderson further explained, "You know I have news channels. Real Madrid's current wage structure has a huge problem. Player wages may account for 90% of the total expenditure. Can you understand what this concept is?"

This made Rafael frown slightly, and Anderson smiled when he felt his unhappiness, "You are only 16 years old, not any 16-year-old boy has a concept about this matter. Since you understand, we will ignore it."

Anderson saw Rafael stretch his brows, and continued to introduce: "Outside of these four teams, the other Italian teams are most interested in you, but their sincerity is not as good as Moratti. To be honest, every time you reject him, you will let him down. I feel a little bit guilty."

Seeing Anderson rarely showing a headache expression, Rafael also smiled when he thought about the style of the "Inter Milan dad" in front of his favorite players, but reminded Anderson again, "I still say the same thing, my goal this season There's only one."

Anderson nodded to express his understanding, "My job is to let you understand these. As you said, we can save the rest until next season. But you must at least tell me that you want to stay in the next season." Deportivo? Lendoiro is crazy to give you a raise and a new contract. I can't stop answering his calls, and I can't stop going to Depco to watch your games. It will make others think you don't have an agent people."

Anderson hinted that he knew how annoying that guy Jorge Mendes was!

It made him even want to sign Juan...

"No," Raphael shook his head.

After all, La Liga is only a stage for La Liga duo. Even though there are 24 teams this season, there are only 2 opponents that can make him excited.

"What is your preferred intention? Do you have a preference? The weather in England, the sunshine in Madrid, or the Apennines?"

Seeing Raphael frowning again, Anderson explained patiently, "Transfer is a very complicated job. I am an agent for the first time, and you are my first client. These teams that are interested in you, They are all giants, and they are all worthy of you. You only need to filter the parts you are most interested in, and I will give priority to contacting them in the summer. But I need to know their signing goals for next season and the coaching style in advance , I even have to think about where you will live in advance, what you will eat every day, whether you will drive to the training base, and whether you can adapt to life there."

Anderson explained it this way, and Raphael understood it.Among the "logistics" he has worked with, the most pleasant ones to cooperate with are Anderson, who can not only grasp the overall situation in a macro perspective, but also formulate details in every detail.

It's not that Anderson doesn't want to sell him for a good price and earn more transfer fees, but compared to those, Anderson obviously cares more about the satisfaction of his client.

Raphael considers himself a difficult client, so he is very happy that his agent has such awareness.

"First of all, I won't go to England," Rafael emphasized indifferently, "Whether it's the weather in England, food, or football, I'm not interested."

The trouble is there, if he doesn't take the initiative to avoid it, will he throw himself into the trap?

"Secondly, I will not go to Barcelona." Rafael emphasized.

This made the brothers look at him with some curiosity. Frankly speaking, they thought Rafael might go to Barcelona. The reason is very simple. Maradona was a Barcelona player.

Rafael is in a "rebellious period". If he wants to surpass Maradona, it is reasonable to go to Barcelona.

In fact, they only hope that this client will not choose Naples (Napoli). They don't want Rafael to follow Maradona's old path and accidentally get involved with those mafias.

Rafael will not tell them that if Barcelona introduces him in the summer, there is only one reason-to make him a substitute for Ronaldo.

He will not accept it!

"For Italy... I will ask my sister if she likes Milan." Raphael finally made a choice.

For women, Paris and Milan are always more attractive than cities like Turin and Rome, right?

Oriol and Anderson looked at each other, Oriol coughed, and then said: "You have seven or eight advertising invitations, and I will eliminate the unimportant ones for you. Adidas is very, very interested in you , Nike's quotation is 20 dollars lower than theirs, but I think the current price is too low, and the contract is very long, so I suggest you refuse, and I suggest that next time you wear Adidas shoes, Just black out the logo on the shoe—forget it, I'll tell Juan."

"L'Oreal Group wants you to be the spokesperson for Biotherm's men's skin care series." Oriol looked at Raphael's face sincerely and said, "For the sake of our future making a lot of money, I think you should take care of yourself." Take care of your face, so I suggest you agree." After a pause, he added, "They also want to cooperate with your sister, so you may have to shoot commercials with Ronnie."

Damn fat man, Raphael stared at him coldly.

The fat man obviously grabbed his softest rib, and jumped on it like a demon!I'm sure he can't refuse!

Oriol struggled to maintain a smile, and emphasized: "You can refuse."

"...I promise." Raphael stared at him and said, and before this guy was about to say anything else, he warned: "Take back everything you have to say, just this one!"

Oriol couldn't help laughing, but under the threat of Raphael's death eyes, he nodded in cooperation, didn't say a word, and made a gesture of zipping his mouth.

Veronica was very happy when she heard that she was going to work with her younger brother after returning home, which made Raphael have two big lipstick marks on his face.

Even Javier snickered after seeing his younger brother's embarrassed appearance.

The winter break is said to be long and very long, but it is also very short to say short.Two weeks passed in a hurry, and Raphael returned to the team to start training again.

Rendoiro spent a rare and generous sum of money this time to let the whole team go to Marbella, a famous training camp in Spain, for training.This is often the choice of the rich teams, and it is the first time for Depor to go here for training.

This can also be seen from Rendoiro's expectations for the team. After missing the league championship that is close at hand, he is extremely eager for Depor to win the league championship trophy this year.

Just when they were going to the training camp, the advertising of YSL men's clothing spread overwhelmingly.The promotional poster has Hodi Slimane's personal characteristics, all black and white photos.

And the Rafael under his lens is completely different from that of Gomez. What he captures and pursues is the rebellion and self in Rafael, with a strong sense of youth and his favorite rock and roll. amorous feelings.However, the huge poster of this cool boy shot by He Di, on the first day of all-round publicity, news of the theft came one after another.The evaluations given by major fashion magazines and the positive feedback collected from various channels made ysl even more overjoyed.

Hodi Slimane is still a cutting-edge designer, and Raphael is the spokesperson that Hodi personally determined and repeatedly won. The management is not at ease.Now that the feedback is so good, the first thing to do is of course to increase publicity!

The first successful commercial cooperation did not get the slightest attention from Rafael. After returning to the team, Rafael, who could only play football by himself and could not practice together for two weeks, would care about whether the commercial promotion was successful or not. He enjoyed it. It is the thrill of being extraordinary, the joy of shooting, and the joy of controlling the audience.

"Like a husky, why can you see him everywhere on the court?" Toshack watched Raphael galloping all over the court, and couldn't help shaking his head with emotion.

"Obviously you have to include him in the starting lineup, otherwise he will definitely want to talk to you." The assistant said to Lao Tuo sympathetically.

Toshack rubbed his face and said depressedly: "He's only 16 years old, I can't let him have an accident in my hands, it will be blamed by thousands of people, everyone will say that I ruined a genius... It's so difficult."

It is really difficult to carve such a rough diamond that is destined to shine brightly.

Everyone knows that a little polishing can make it bloom the brightest light, but if you accidentally knock off an extra piece?How about an extra piece of sanding?Accidentally deviate from the blueprint?

Possessing a genius is happiness, but in the process of cultivating a genius, there are also entanglements and trade-offs.

Lao Tuo's happiness and pain can only be experienced by himself, and Raphael doesn't care about it. He only knows that he will be able to start in the next round!

On December 12, Deportivo will face Valencia at home!

That's right, it's Valencia. Raphael was selected for trial training when he was still studying, but Valencia missed the training date-the Bat Legion.

In this game, Deportivo is gearing up. It's not because they haven't played for a month like Rafael, so they are going crazy, but because they have the hatred of losing the championship with Valencia!

This goes back to 94.At that time, the championship battle between Deportivo and Barcelona was in full swing, and before the final round, there was still suspense in the championship.

In the last round, Deportivo's opponent was Valencia.

At that time, Barcelona offered a championship bonus (converted to 3 euros) for every player in Valencia. If Valencia can draw or even beat Deportivo, they can get this bonus! [2]

This sum of money is already higher than the annual salary of many people in the team, and Valencia is gearing up to overthrow Deportivo.

The results of it?Of course it was overturned.

Djukic missed a penalty kick at the last moment, causing Depor to be tied by Valencia, while Barcelona won and finally overtook!

That was the moment when Deportivo was closest to the league championship. Countless Deportivo fans burst into tears on the spot, feeling overwhelmed - including Rendoiro.

Now playing against Valencia again, how could players like Fran and Mauro, who have experienced the pain of losing the championship, not seize the opportunity to complete their revenge?

Of course, none of this has anything to do with Rafael. The championship is in the final round, and the pain of losing by kicking a penalty kick has nothing to do with him.

But any Depor player can see his excitement-his performance and performance in the team match are all silently expressing his expectations for this game.

The author has something to say: [1] Biotherm: I remember working with Lao Bei once.

[2] Winning bonus: In fact, more was paid to Tenerife. At that time, Dong Ge was still in Tenerife, and Barcelona offered a huge bonus of 6 euros for Tenerife.
