Red Rebels

7o Messi should learn to be a human being

After a day of training, Messi dragged his tired body out of the locker room.

At this time, he was supposed to be in Asia, preparing for the upcoming Olympic men's football match. As a player of the right age, Messi participated in all the previous warm-up matches. However, in the past two days, he took some time off for something and returned to Manchester.

Since there is still enough time, Messi will stay here for two days. After participating in the team captain election, he will return to Beijing and directly join his teammates to participate in the Olympic football match.

Obviously feeling the almost crazy state of Ronaldinho last season, Messi felt very pressured. After all, he and Ronaldinho are known as the devil wings of the Red Rebels. The two separated on two wings and almost became A weapon used by the Red Rebels to kill their enemies.

The coaching staff once said that the reason why Ronaldinho's goal number is so high is not entirely because of his ability, but also because Ismael, Fabregas, Messi and others are making wedding dresses for him. Although Messi did not score many goals, he had a lot of assists and his performance was also very good.

But he is still not satisfied with himself

As early as when Kaka was absent due to injury, Messi promised him that he would do his best to ensure the team's results. However, as a result, the Red Rebels only won one British championship last season, and the Champions League stopped at 8 Strong, but Messi did not perform very well in the two rounds, which made the Argentine teenager feel very ashamed.

In his opinion, he should have more motivation to work harder than anyone else

With this mood, Messi started preparations in advance in the summer, which made his performance in the warm-up matches in the summer pretty good, but he still felt not satisfied enough. He felt that he could do better and be better.

Even though he only returned to Manchester for a few days, Messi still did not relax in training. In addition to completing Mourinho's training sessions, he also went to the gym to strengthen his physical training. He knew that, It is difficult for people who are too weak to gain a foothold in England.

Messi looks a bit short, but in fact, he is very strong and strong, and it does not affect his speed and flexibility at all. If he follows the laboratory's standards and recommendations, he can definitely The stronger he is, the better he will perform, especially the leg strength.

Working harder than anyone else is the most effective way in Messi's mind to improve his own strength. He has never thought of taking shortcuts, because the football education he received since childhood told him that in the world of football, There are never shortcuts.

Everyone says he is a genius, but genius also requires hard work

After training all day,

Even an iron man can't hold it

Messi walked to the car, opened the door, and fell into the Red Rebel sports car. He almost collapsed and was so lazy that he didn't want to move.

"Faria is really a pervert. He can adjust the intensity so much even when training with the ball. In comparison, training with the Argentine Olympic team seems too childish," Messi said to himself with a wry smile.

He participated in training with the Argentine Olympic team for about half a month. As soon as he returned to the Red Rebels, Messi found that he could hardly keep up with the training volume of his teammates. This had to remind him of the Argentine Olympic team. and the gap in training level between the Red Rebels.

Faria is definitely a geek at training with the ball. What he is best at is arranging physical training during training with the ball. This allows everyone to always move with the ball without losing their sense of the ball due to physical training.

So many people are wondering why the Red Rebels can still be so skilled in ball control, passing and receiving, and their success rate has not dropped even though their physical fitness has declined significantly?

The reason is that almost all players are used to training in such exhausting conditions, and they will naturally not decline when they get on the court. In contrast, opponents are often easier to defeat.

Heaving a sigh of relief, Messi closed the car door, started the car, reversed the car, and drove out of the training base.

"Hey, Leo." Just at the gate, a man stopped Messi's car.

"Fortunately, you happen to be here." Lying on Messi's sports car was the club's press officer. He was panting and looked in a hurry. Messi immediately rolled down the window.

"What's the matter, Mr. Julio?"

"It's like this, Leo. There is a reporter from the east who wants to interview you. He is in the small conference room of the administrative building now. I hope you can take some time to talk to him. He said he will take a flight tomorrow. We're going back." The press officer pointed to the administrative building.

Messi looked through the hood. In the conference room on the second floor of the administrative building, a figure appeared in the window near the training base gate, waving hello to Messi. He was wearing the Red Rebels jersey. The new jersey for the season shows that he is a fan of the Red Rebels and also a journalist.

Messi suddenly felt weak, "I'm sorry, Mr. Julio, I just finished a whole day of training and now I'm exhausted. And isn't it already past the team's interview time? Otherwise, it's okay. Okay? Mr. Julio, arrange for him to come for an interview tomorrow afternoon. I will still be there tomorrow and I will be at the training base at noon to have a good talk with him, okay?"

The press officer looked at the administrative building with some embarrassment. The latter didn't know why and was still smiling and taking pictures. Just when he was about to defend, Messi had already shook his head, "I'm sorry, Mr. Julio, I'm really tired. Let’s go first, please make some arrangements.”

After saying that, he drove away in the red rebel sports car.

At the window on the second floor of the administrative building, the smile of the fan and reporter who took the photo suddenly froze. Slowly, he felt a surge of anger. He felt that he had been slighted.

…………

…………

The morning training time of the Red Rebels is usually at 9 o'clock in the summer, but usually around 9 o'clock, the players will return to the Newton Heath training base one after another, and they will prepare in advance, such as warm-up , to avoid getting injured while training.

According to past habits, the first person to arrive at the club should be Mourinho, but many times, Xiao Yu will be earlier than Mourinho, because he will come to the club in advance for fitness, and occasionally Chopin or Gao Ren will follow. .

But Messi drove up on Droyden Road at early 8 o'clock today.

Driving into Droisden Road, Messi habitually slowed down the car because there were some students or elderly people on this road who went to Brookdale Park for morning exercise. He couldn't go faster, but there were not many people at this time. , the car is not too slow either.

But just as he passed the entrance of Brookdale Park, he was suddenly flashed by a figure in front of him. Messi was so frightened that he immediately stepped on the brakes and saw an angry young man standing in front of him.

This young man is carrying a travel bag on his back and holding a handbag in his hand. He looks like a traveler, but what is really eye-catching is that there is a dead leaf on his head above his ears, and his eyes are bloodshot. , looking like he didn’t sleep well last night.

"Leo Messi" the man shouted.

Messi nodded. His Red Rebel sports car was open-top, so he could hear the other party's voice. At this time, he thought the other party wanted to sign an autograph. This kind of thing occasionally happens around here.

Unexpectedly, after the other party confirmed it, he suddenly sneered.

"I'm really so stupid. I was so stupid that I flew from my home country to China just for a bullshit star like you, and then chased you from China to Manchester, traveling thousands of miles, just for the sake of a bullshit star like you. I can’t believe that I got an exclusive interview from you, that I would be so stupid.”

Messi stared blankly at the reporter in front of him who was desperately venting. He suddenly remembered, isn't this the reporter from the east that the press officer Julio mentioned yesterday?

From the look of him, he seemed to have spent the night at Brookdale Park last night...

"Messi" While Messi was thinking, the man suddenly shouted: "I'm leaving. I'm just a reporter for a small newspaper. We don't have much funding, no time, no money. I even... …I almost couldn’t even afford a plane ticket back, but I no longer want to get your exclusive interview.”

When he said this, the reporter looked determined.

"But I am not willing to give in, because I know that in the country where I live, there are many fans of your Red Rebels, and they all want to know about your movements, so I am here, but now, between me So the purpose of staying here is just to tell you that you don’t need to learn how to play football anymore, but you must learn how to be a human being.”

Messi listened blankly, a little at a loss. He couldn't even believe that this reporter was chasing him for thousands of kilometers. Looking at his dusty appearance, it was not difficult to imagine that he had chased him here from Beijing. anxious.

Looking at the reporter's back as he left, Messi suddenly stood up from the car and called him a few times, but he still did not look back and walked forward resolutely, leaving only Messi behind him leaning on his That luxury sports car is full of regrets.

After a while, another Red Rebel sports car came running from the distance. Seeing Messi's car parked on the road, it was strange to stop next to it.

"What's the matter, Leo?" Xiao Yu stuck his head out and asked with concern.

The two stood between the two cars. Messi confessed to Xiao Yu everything that had just happened. He always had nothing to hide in front of Xiao Yu, and Xiao Yu immediately realized that this should belong to the club. Mistake, so he immediately called the press officer Julio, who told him everything.

"He comes from a small newspaper in the United Arab Emirates, but there are many low-level readers and fans. They have been planning for a long time, it is said that it lasted more than a year, just to be able to interview the Red Rebels, or Red Rebel players.”

"Originally, this year's trip to Asia was a good opportunity for them, but unfortunately, they missed this opportunity. So when they heard that you would stay in Beijing to participate in the Olympics, they decided to go and interview you, but Unexpectedly, when they arrived in Beijing, you were back in Manchester."

"Small newspapers have the same difficulties as small newspapers. They have a limited budget, but in order to be able to interview you, he decided to pay his own money to come to Manchester. But you also know that when you go from Beijing to Manchester, you are not familiar with the place, and you have to spend money for everything. He doesn’t have much money. He originally planned to interview you yesterday evening, but he hurried back early this morning. He didn’t even have dinner or breakfast.”

When he said this, Xiao Yu was a little angry with Julio, because the latter did not realize this and did not provide any help to the reporter. This was definitely against the business purpose of the Red Rebels.

Of course, Julio can't be blamed for this. After all, this reporter is also very brave and didn't say anything. These were all guessed by Xiao Yu and the others. He probably spent the night in Brookdale Park last night. .

"He is right, Leo, we are not just a team, we are also the spiritual symbol of countless fans. Our players not only need to learn how to play football, but also know how to behave, so in our In the youth training camp, being a human being is often more important than playing football, so we attach great importance to cultural courses, more than any club."

"You have your difficulties, and I understand that, so it's hard to say who is right in this matter, but I believe that not only you should learn from it, but the club and I should also do the same."

Xiao Yu is a person, and the Red Rebels are just a club. This limits their ability to be comprehensive and take care of everyone, so if it is those who don't know, Xiao Yu can't do anything about it, but now that he knows, everything It will become different. Xiao Yu and the Red Rebels will definitely try their best to do something to make up for it.

"Boss, I..." Messi suddenly became excited.

But Xiao Yu shook his head to stop him, "Don't worry, Leo, I know what you want to do. I have asked Jim to stop him. I hope he can stay. Our club will be responsible for his food and daily life, and at the same time, He has arranged the return flight, and I will also invite him to stay with the team for a few days and follow the team for interviews."

"We are just ordinary, ordinary people. It is impossible to take care of those distant corners that we don't know about, but under our noses, we must shoulder our responsibilities. This is the Red Rebel Army. "Xiao Yu patted Messi heavily on the shoulder and encouraged him.

Messi nodded heavily, "I know, boss, he woke me up with his scolding and made me understand that many times, fans care about a player, not just how he scores goals and how many goals he scores, they also Also concerned, what kind of person is he?"

If the reporter is allowed to go back like this, this matter will definitely become a knot in Messi's mind. Although he is not wrong, in fact, he was scolded by a fan reporter in front of him, and he was scolded so reasonably. , it is impossible that Messi did not react.

"Let's go, don't think too much. You've done your best, haven't you?" Xiao Yu comforted with a smile, "Wait a while and perform well on the training ground, and then accept his interview with his teammates. It can be considered compensation." Bar"
