The Young Lion

Eight hundred and forty-one quick cuts

Because of Aldridge's insistence, the FA couldn't refute his face.

Although Aldridge is scheduled to resign after the World Cup and the current punishment can be changed, but at this time on the cusp of the storm, the FA's external statement will definitely be invisible, whether it is the FA unilaterally commuting Rooney's sentence in the future, or If the next coach overturns this punishment, the criticism of the change will affect the FA. Therefore, the punishment at this time is almost a conclusion. Once it is issued, it will definitely be implemented to the end.

The discussion about Rooney's punishment was over, and the others left one after another, but Thompson on the video call did not hang up for a long time. After only Aldridge was left in the conference room, Thompson said on the other end of the phone: Aldridge, Although it may not be appropriate to talk about this now, I think it is possible to communicate in private. In view of the good performance of England in the past year and a half, the FA agrees that you should be given a new contract. We hope you can stay in the national team for a long time For the post of coach, the new contract period can be 4 years or 6 years, as long as you like, and the salary is also roughly the same as the annual salary of the coach of the top European teams, how about it?

Aldridge has been working part-time for the past year and a half, and his salary is relatively low, which is justifiable. Now the FA has decided to give him a new contract, regardless of the final results of the World Cup. It is a kind of sincerity. Not based on World Cup results.

Aldridge shook his head without thinking, Thank you for your kindness. I still insist on leaving after the World Cup because I have other plans.

Well, let's not talk about this subject until you get back to London. Let's sit down and have a formal talk.

Aldridge has no intention of changing his mind. A casual nod ended Thompson's call.

Sitting in a silent conference room. Aldridge sighed.

Bringing Rooney this time, although he has his own selfish ideas in the overall situation, everything was wonderful before yesterday. England's new golden boy became famous with one goal, and his merits of discerning people will be added.

But it's not all for his selfishness. He really wanted Rooney to experience the atmosphere of the competition and open his eyes. Let him get familiar with such an atmosphere prematurely, guard against arrogance and impetuosity, and gain a better foothold in the national team in the future, which will be of great benefit to him in the future.

But I didn't expect Rooney to cause such a scandal, and a good thing turned into a bad thing in an instant.

In terms of Aldridge's own influence, bringing Rooney to the World Cup this time is naturally good for pure competition, but the negative impact it can bring makes this choice a failure.

The image and reputation of the national team have suffered losses.

Just today's newspapers. Countless ridicule and ridicule,

name-calling and belittling.

When you make a mistake and get caught by someone. There are countless sages all over the world occupying the moral high ground and throwing stones at you.

He took out his portable notebook, wrote a few short words on it with a pen, tore off the page and folded it. Aldridge got up and walked out of the meeting room. Andrew was waiting for him outside the door. When he saw him coming out, he asked: How about it?

Send him back, he is not a fuel-efficient lamp, you'd better watch him yourself.

After finishing speaking, Aldridge handed the folded paper to Andrew, and left with a tired face. He didn't rest well, and was woken up by the phone before 5 o'clock.

Media reporters from all over the world gathered in Tokyo and surrounded the training camp of the England team and the hotel where they stayed.

When other players are training normally, they can see countless reporters outside taking pictures, trying to find interview opportunities.

And when Rooney left the hotel at noon, accompanied by Andrew, the 16-year-old Rooney was suddenly surrounded by spotlights, and he was terrified, as if those journalists who were chattering would eat him alive.

Andrew, who was wearing stylish sunglasses, protected Rooney into the car and left the hotel directly to the airport.

The England team held an impromptu press conference.

Aldridge came forward and did not accept any interviews with reporters, but unilaterally announced Rooney's punishment.

The news of England's dismissal of Rooney and his non-calling for the next year spread quickly.

The ups and downs of England's new golden boy's World Cup trip can be compared to a wonderful reversal drama.

However, the England national team responded to the public relations crisis detonated by this scandal quite quickly. It took less than four hours from the news of the incident to the settlement of the punishment of the parties involved, which made the media's continued hype quite weak.

What else can I fry?

Prostitution is prostitution, and fines are also punished. If you continue to pay attention to the England national team and lead the scandal to them, Rooney is no longer in the team, and you want to hype Rooney? The person concerned has returned to England, and the World Cup is still going on.

A considerable number of people in the media believed that England's punishment seemed serious, but in fact it tolerated Rooney.

For some other national teams, it is very likely that Rooney will be permanently expelled from the national team in a hard-hearted manner, because the crime he committed has damaged the reputation of the country and the image of the national team has suffered a serious blow.

As for not recruiting Rooney for a year, it was interpreted as a kind of protection to calm the incident.

If Beckham or Irving were not recruited to the national team for a year, the loss to England and the loss to the players would be very serious.

But 16-year-old Wayne Rooney, one year later, he is still under 18 years old, and he is still in his prime. The prospect of the national team is still very bright, and he will still return to the national team with a dazzling image of England's new golden boy. Of course, the premise is that Rooney will not play a story that hurts Zhong Yong.

Rooney and Andrew boarded the plane back to London. In the first-class cabin, Andrew took a drink, glanced at Rooney who was in a daze, and comforted softly: Don't worry, who doesn't make mistakes when they are young? Besides, that kind of thing It's normal to put it on a man.

Andrew expressed his feelings. He became a supermodel when he was 15 years old. In fact, he is also a prostitute in essence.

For example, Rooney didn't think there was any problem when he fucked Dongyangmei. Besides, the players had excess energy and capital, but it was unwise to do things just to be discovered.

Andrew has the principle of being a human being, and never restricts others, unless it is something that is really harmful and unhelpful, such as his players going to take drugs. Andrew persuaded as much as he could. Can't persuade. Then everyone parted ways and became strangers ever since.

But if his players have big intestines and like to hang around among women, he will not persuade the players to be good men like a saint, but will instill some behaviors.

It's the worst kind of prostitution, and it's really detrimental to reputation.

For example, Lampard, Joe Cole, this is the famous playboy in England now. There is also Ronaldinho. Andrew can't make them saints, but if a man doesn't get married, there is no moral criticism of cheating. You can change your girlfriend, one day a day. Outsiders can say that you are a playboy, but they won't say You are whoring-prostitution, although in essence the woman you hooked up with a diamond ring necklace with a watch is actually worth paying for it, but at least it is in front of the public. You have no moral pressure from public opinion, at best you will be accused of flirting. Or being scolded for not doing their job properly when their job is not done well.

Rooney frowned, and he looked preoccupied at such a young age, which seemed awkward in Andrew's eyes.

Boss, will you give up on me?

Rooney's tone was very weak, as if he hadn't eaten for ten days.

Andrew shook his head with a smile and said, It shouldn't be, don't think about it. It's the best way to expel you from the team, whether it is for you or the national team. First of all, if you are not in the team, those reporters will not To surround you, it will not disturb your life, and it will not continue to bring negative influence to the national team, attention other than football. Secondly, the World Cup is still going on, and more important news hits the headlines every day , to let you go back to London is to let you leave the center of the whirlpool of public opinion, and you will receive much less pressure from the media in London. Secondly, there is no need to follow up on your story, because the whole incident is over. And you Go back and live a low-key life. If you want, you can go back to the club to participate in the youth team training. After the World Cup is over, half a month has passed. No one is interested in what happened to you. Uh, I almost forgot Yes, here, this is what Aldrich asked me to give you.

Rooney roughly figured out the deep meaning of his being cleared from the team and returning to London. Aldrich cut the mess quickly, not only for the national team, but also to protect him.

After receiving the note from Andrew, Rooney opened it and saw that it was a few words written by Aldrich.

In the opening remarks, Aldridge apologized to him for the same reason as Andrew. As the coach, he did not restrain him well.

Seeing the words of Aldrich's apology, Rooney almost cried.

In the eyes of Aldrich, Rooney is really a child.

It is necessary to reprimand him with a strong tone. This kid, if you don't scold him harshly, how can he have a long memory?

In the note, Aldridge asked him to go back to London to calm down and reflect. It is best to return to the club to continue training, and he also asked him to apologize to his family as soon as he returned. His behavior must have caused trouble to his family.

As for England's punishment, Aldridge said it was an incentive and test.

You have worn the national team jersey.

You have also stepped on the World Cup stage and scored goals.

Do you want to return to such a stage in the future?

Then work hard.

In the future, you will become the pillar of England, but if you do not work hard, do not have self-discipline and restraint, it is impossible to do so.

After reading the few words on the paper, Rooney secretly wiped the corner of his eyes...

Aldridge's vigorous and decisive style of dealing with things quickly paid off. Thanks to the World Cup, there were fierce battles one after another. Although the scandal was explosive, it was difficult to win the championship under the mainstream wave of the World Cup.

Just this afternoon, the Selecao did not send out the strongest team, but still swept Costa Rica 5:2, helping Turkey beat China 3:0 and beat Costa Rica with a goal difference advantage to enter the top 16 of the World Cup.

After Saudi Arabia, the Chinese team also bid farewell to the Korea-Japan World Cup with an embarrassing record of not scoring a goal and conceding 10 goals in three games.

In the evening, Italy relied on Del Piero's goal to draw with Mexico at the last moment. The two teams advanced together. The Italian media exclaimed that they were lucky.

The top 16 places in the World Cup are about to be announced, and the England team is gradually attracting attention when other groups have come to an end.

It’s just that when Aldridge was preparing for the 1/8 finals against Senegal, his posture was completely different from before. He was more serious and silent, and the players also woke up, not daring to make the slightest mistake. Rooney became everyone’s favorite. A lesson learned from the past, but Rooney's departure has no effect on the competitive strength of the England team. If it were Owen's departure, it would be traumatic. Even Alan Smith may have hidden dangers, but only Rooney , a player who had no chance to play again in the knockout round, his departure did not have a blow to the strength of the England team. On the contrary, he played a warning role, making the whole England team concentrate all their thoughts on the pitch Inside. (to be continued..) ()
