Playing 4 games in 11 days, not only dozens of minutes on the court, but also more than ten times the dedicated preparation time off the court, although Wang Ai's physical fitness has not been exhausted, it is not sufficient. At the same time, mentally,
Unknowingly, he fell into a long-term state of anxiety. The jersey battle with Ballack ended successfully, but the golden boot battle with Henry, the status battle with Shevchenko, and the long-term competition with Kaka, etc., all at once.
I came here in the past month or two.
Although Wang Ai has Leonie, Schlapner, and Constance as logistical support, and Xu Qinglian and Huang Xin as emotional support, this part-time loose team has to deal with so many fronts, and is also responsible for business development affairs, etc.
It's a complicated job, and it's obviously beyond your capabilities.
He is the only star in China who has reached Wang Ai's current status. Yao Ming, who is much weaker than him, has a special "Yao Team" with no less than ten core members. When big events happen, peripheral members can be temporarily recruited.
Dozens of people work around Yao Ming. Some are responsible for athletics, some are responsible for business development, some are responsible for personal life, some are responsible for receiving media, some are responsible for training and medical treatment, some are responsible for legal affairs, and some are responsible for receiving friends.
The fans...each perform his own duties, each has his own pool, and the division of labor is clear.
In Wang Ai's place, there are only five people in total, and they are all part-timers. Therefore, Wang Ai can't help but end up personally. For example, facing the strong competition from Ballack, Wang Ai spent a lot of energy thinking about how to break the situation.
, all aspects were taken into consideration before notifying Schlappner to implement it. Although Yao Ming has been the younger brother of the Rockets for two years, the NBA's enthusiasm for developing the Chinese market is much stronger than that of the five major leagues, so no one will threaten Yao Ming's main position. But
Wang Ai is different here, he has to fight all the time for the main position.
If Wang Ai had not lived a life of extreme physical training and mental training since he was a child, he might not have been able to survive at all. So now, although Wang Ai does not feel mentally exhausted, it is a fact that he has consumed a lot, and his overall condition is not enough.
Excited. In other words, people like Wang Ai are used to always pushing themselves to the limit. When the environment is good, they are really cool, but when the environment is bad, they are stretched.
This was something that Leonie couldn't solve because she came in temporarily to act as an assistant.
Before the start of the second half of the game, Jose took Wang Ai and looked him up and down carefully for a while. The young man in front of him was still smiling, but the fatigue in his eyes could not be concealed. Jose had no choice but to advise: "Young lions must learn to wait for the opportunity.
"
As he said that, Jose raised his two hands, one up and one down: "Next year, you will be stronger and he will be weaker. Don't rush to deal with him now. Because the next ten years will belong to
Yours, you will not only defeat him easily, but you will also kill old lion kings like him one after another, and kill little lions who challenge you one after another. The challenges will be so many that you will be numb. So, while you're at it,
You haven't ascended to the throne yet, so enjoy the joy of football."
Wang Ai looked at Jose intently. At this moment, he really felt Jose's heartfelt care for him. You can say that the two have a long history, or you can say that it is a proud head coach's appreciation and respect for absolutely outstanding players.
Protective, but at the same time, this is the resonance of the souls of two stubborn people.
This tacit understanding was reflected in their cooperation against Mr. Roman and Shevchenko. Jose never said it explicitly, and Wang Ai never agreed explicitly. However, the result was that Wang Ai tied the Champions League single-season record.
The goal record firmly suppressed Shevchenko's 10 goals and exceeded the task. Jose also returned the favor and tried his best to support Wang Ai's "Golden Boot Competition" within the scope of conditions.
"I understand, coach." Wang Ai nodded with a smile, turned around and stepped onto the court.
In the second half, Wang Ai was still the best in the Chelsea team, and he still caused countless troubles for Newcastle's backcourt. In other words, as long as Wang Ai stood in the winger position, he was the trouble itself. Lama was responsible for defending Wang Ai.
Ji was simply helpless. However, other Chelsea players who were not specially prepared for the game were in a sluggish state and could not provide timely support to Wang Ai. As a result, Wang Ai repeatedly fell into group battles.
No matter how good the performance is, no matter how beautiful the opponent is, one person cannot solve the problem. The opponents are all international players from various countries, not fish. As the game time becomes less and less, Wang Ai is getting more and more anxious after all. Jose's words
He understands, but he has been mentally preparing for this game for a long time. There is no situation where someone else's words can completely open up the knot in his mind. Especially for a thoughtful philosopher. When a philosopher is stuck in a thinking dilemma
At that time, apart from himself, only philosophers could solve it.
Obviously, only Jose's wife Matilde, a psychologist, could prescribe the right medicine. It was thanks to his wife that Jose could understand Wang Ai's psychological problems, but that was all.
The fierce game was still going on, and Wang Ai was alone. Of course, the Magpies made the Chelsea people not very happy, so the defense was still strong, and Owen rushed a few times to no avail. It was not until the 70th minute of the game that Wang Ai scored.
The first goal of the game was given to Wang Ai with a direct free kick as Newcastle, which was heavily defensive, could not control it due to a decline in physical fitness.
Lampard, the first penalty kicker, took the initiative to give the opportunity to his teammates. This is Wang Ai's best way to score goals. After careful preparation, he succeeded in one fell swoop, turning the score into 2:0.
A few minutes later, Jose issued a substitution order, Essien came up, Wang Ai came down.
Wang Ai let out a long sigh and turned to the sidelines. After hugging Essien, he looked up at the small patch of blue in front of him, raised his hands to applaud the fans, and thanked the fans who had followed them all season and worked very hard. Unexpectedly,
The move drew a standing ovation from Newcastle fans.
Wang Ai's expression was full of surprise. He has nothing to do with Newcastle. Although he scored a goal in this game, it was not very exciting.
Wang Ai, who was full of doubts, put on a smile, applauded in the four directions of the stands, bowed his head, thanked him, and then walked to the sidelines. However, Jose grabbed him and stuffed something into Wang Ai's hand.
Wang Ai took a look and saw that it was the gold medal issued by the Premier League a few days ago.
"This is the compensation I gave you. You lost, but that was because I didn't give you enough playing time. I don't mean recently, I mean the first half of the schedule."
Wang Ai opened his eyes wide: "Did I lose?"
Jose nodded: "Henry hasn't finished yet and has already scored two goals. I guess he will soon finish. But if you don't, he won't either. Arsenal is still competing with Tottenham for the Champions League qualification, unlike us.
You have already given up the game. So if you continue playing, there will be no benefit except increasing your risk of injury."
