"The media are really bastards who adapt to the changing circumstances!"
Yoon Martinez was very dissatisfied with the comments in the media and on the Internet after the game.
"It's almost blown to the sky! What is the best goal in the Champions League... The Champions League is not over yet!"
Cardoso Tonini saw his friend's indignant look at the side and couldn't stop laughing.
Yin Weng is still complaining: "Just looking at the statements in the media and the Internet, people think that this kid is the biggest contributor. But in fact, we were able to reverse Catalonia United, and it was clearly Hu's credit! It was him in the midfield
It boosted morale during the break, and he was the first to catch up with two goals..."
"But Farias is indeed absolutely equal."
"He is just lucky! And without Hu's two goals, how could he get a 'definite draw'? If it were like some idiots on the Internet said, let Farias be the core of the offense, I'm afraid we would be like that in the end.
What’s the use of a goal, no matter how beautiful it is?”
"Ettore will not let Farias be the core, our offensive core is still Hu." Toni said.
"Of course, but because of this ball, that kid's main force can be considered secure..." When Yin Weng said this, he sighed hard. This was what he was most worried about. "Cardoso, if you want to grab it again
It will be difficult to return to the main force..."
Yin Weng's words were agreed by several other people.
We all gathered together for dinner tonight, nominally to celebrate advancing to the semi-finals of the Champions League.
But everyone's expressions were a little sad, and they were not particularly happy. The meal in the name of celebration turned into a complaining party for them.
As Yin Weng said - it was Farias who stole the show in the game. He was obviously a guy they hated, but he evened the score with such a beautiful goal during the game and became the focus after the game.
No matter how dissatisfied they are with Farias, they have to admit that it was indeed a beautiful goal.
Looking at a group of teammates who were complaining about themselves, Tonini couldn't hold back in the end and said to them:
"Actually, I went to find Ettore and asked him to start Farias in the next games."
A group of people stared at him dumbfounded.
Yin Weng was the first to react: "Are you crazy?!"
Yin Rasusta suddenly realized: "Do you want to save your energy for the World Cup?"
Toni shook his head: "I'm not crazy, nor am I trying to save myself for the World Cup. I just don't want everyone to become impetuous because of the battle between him and me, which will lead to the team falling apart. The atmosphere in the team has been
It's bad enough, like a powder keg that could be ignited at any time, so don't strike a match at this time."
Someone asked a very childish question: "Since we have to give in, why can't that kid give in?"
Tonini smiled: "If he can do such a thing, do we still need a headache now?"
Yin Weng gritted his teeth and said: "Damn, I'm even more upset. I obviously never take the team into my heart, I just want to be in the limelight alone, but I can be the beneficiary..."
Yin Lasusta asked: "Cardoso, by doing this, can that kid understand your intentions? Wouldn't he get angry because of your initiative to show weakness? Will he become even more complacent and self-righteous?"
"
Tonini sighed: "You don't understand Farias."
Yin Weng pouted: "You make it sound like you understand."
"He and I are competitors, and of course I know him better than you all." Tonini answered confidently, "Farias is a super genius. What is the most important thing for such a person?"
He asked a question to everyone present and looked at them, as if he wanted to test them.
As expected, everyone frowned, began to think about the answer to the question, and then started discussing it.
"money?"
"Isn't that too vulgar? It is said that the salary offered to him by our club was not as high as the salary next door. For money, why not go next door?"
"Fame? He must be eager to become the top star..."
"It makes sense. But it is definitely impossible for him to achieve it at this stage. If he wants to become the top star, he can win several important championships as a core player..."
Everyone discussed it but couldn't reach a consensus. Finally, they all looked at Tonini: "You tell me, Cardoso."
In front of everyone, Tonini said: "I think he has a strong self-esteem and self-confidence. What he values most now is actually recognition."
"admit?"
"In other words, it's the respect that matches his talent. He is a super genius. When he was fifteen years old, he had already attracted the attention of scouts from all over the world. When he decided to transfer at the age of seventeen, he attracted frenzy from European giants.
Such experience is actually the recognition and respect of his strength and talent by European football. The transfer fee of 80 million is also a way of showing respect."
No one questioned Toni's logic.
Transfer fees and the attention of wealthy clubs are indeed one of the indicators that best reflect a player's status.
Otherwise, why would the media always hype transfer rumors, or players' transfer fees and values?
Not only because such indicators can always express the status of this player in the simplest and most direct way.
"Go on, Cardoso."
"After he came to our team, he first played in the B team for one season in Segunda B. Do you remember what the media said when he scored consecutive goals in Segunda B? They said that Farias should directly
To play in La Liga, you should not go through the adaptation period of La Liga B. I think Farias was already holding back his energy at that time and wanted to go to the first team to prove that he could also perform well in La Liga."
Tonini continued.
"But when he was transferred to the first team, what was waiting for him was not the main force and the stars, let alone killing everyone in La Liga. No matter what the mentality of our head coach was in treating him this way, Farias
He will definitely feel that he is not respected and recognized. His performances in Segunda B are as if he has not been seen. That's why he is dissatisfied... I don't say this to defend him, I just try to stand on his side
perspective to analyze the reasons for everything that happened in the past.”
He raised his hands and added, because he knew that his teammates were very dissatisfied with Farias, and in order to prevent them from arguing with him, he had to put on armor first.
He didn't want to get into those pointless arguments that had happened many times in the locker room again.
"All of us, maybe because of preconceived notions, maybe because of Farias's attitude... In short, no one looks at the problem from his perspective. And as his competitor, I am not able to do anything about it."
Yue really tried to think about many things from his perspective. Some things that we couldn't understand before, if we could really think about it from his perspective, we might be able to understand why - not that he makes sense, but
At least we can understand why he did what he did."
After stacking the armor, Toni continued:
"In fact, our dislike of him is for the same reason: his confrontational attitude is because he feels that he has not been respected and recognized. Our displeasure with him is because we feel that as a young newcomer, when he first came to the team, he did not
Show respect for a team that has won three consecutive Champions League titles. No, don’t interrupt me, you can just think about this in your own mind, you don’t need to say it out loud.”
After stopping Yin Weng from opening his mouth, he continued:
"Such a guy who is eager for respect and recognition, even willing to confront the whole team, when he knows that he can easily get the guarantee of starting without any effort, do you think he will be happy, or will he be... angry?"
When everyone heard this, they all looked at Toni in shock.
Because as long as they accept what Tonini said before, then based on a normal logical reasoning, it is easy to draw the conclusion:
Farias will not be happy because Tonini gave him the starting lineup, but will be very unhappy.
"Especially when I was training on the day before the game, I was targeting him."
Alejandro Lopez suddenly realized: "So you are letting him know that you are giving him the starting lineup, not because of injury or because you think you are not in good condition!"
Tonini nodded with a smile: "You think I took the initiative to make the starting lineup because I was afraid of him, but no, in Farias' view, what I did was a humiliation and contempt for him. He was furious, and at the same time he was even more tempted to do it.
Prove that he is worthy of starting in the game...In the second round against Catalonia, we really needed his breakthrough on the left. Facts have proved that he did it."
Everyone fell into silence. Only Yin Weng was used to refuting Toni: "He did it because of good luck. Before that ball, he wasted a lot of opportunities. Our first ball was also his death."
If he didn't pass the ball, if his last shot hadn't been saved by Schulman and was thrown in front of Hu, the ball would have been lost..."
"That's right." Tonini nodded in agreement with Yin Weng's statement, "He did waste a lot of opportunities. If he didn't waste those opportunities, we might not have to wait until the last minute to equalize the score. We wouldn't even have to play overtime.
The reversal can be completed within regular time...
"But those are all ifs. It is meaningless to make various assumptions about the game that has ended. The facts are meaningful, and the fact is that he did use his way to draw Catalonia at the last moment.
"And I think when looking at things and people, you still have to look at the positive side, and you can't always look at problems and shortcomings. In that case, everyone will have problems and no one is trustworthy."
Yin Weng snorted coldly: "The positive side? Do you think his performance in this game can prove that he is qualified for his current position? Do you think I don't understand him? Let me tell you, Cardoso, I am also very good.
Understand, because he is your competitor and my partner on the left!
"Do you believe it, Cardoso? I can bet you, I bet this goal will only make the kid more superstitious about his tricks, and he will immerse himself in doing it alone again and again in the next game. Those idiots are doing this for this
Cheering for the ball, but not knowing that this ball will make our next game worse...
"Hu Ke said that he would use a Champions League champion as a gift for Ettore. But if that kid continues like this, even if we have reached the semi-finals, we will not be able to create another miracle and reach the final.
It’s even more impossible to win the championship!”
After Yin Weng finished speaking as if to vent his emotions, Tony Ni said calmly:
"On the contrary, Yin Weng. I think it is indeed possible for us to win the championship. Of course this is thanks to Hu, because he was the one who put forward this goal so clearly - before him, all of us were confused by internal problems throughout the season.
They are so anxious that no one dares to think about winning the championship..."
Hywell joked: "After all, who can believe that such a disintegrated team has the strength to compete for the championship?"
Toni laughed: "That's why I say look at the positive side."
"Cardoso, I'm really curious, what made you suddenly have confidence in that Farias?" Yin Weng asked with a frown, "You seem to have suddenly changed."
Tonini said: "At first, I just wanted to calm things down and stimulate Farias, so I offered to serve as a substitute for him. But yesterday's game made me change my key view of him. That's what I think about Farias.
Rias is the same as us."
"Same as us? What's the same?"
"The desire for championships and victory is the same as ours before." Tonini added.
Since the third consecutive Champions League, this team's desire for the championship is not as strong as before, and this is not a hidden secret in everyone's mind.
Otherwise, why wait until Hu Lai used "giving the head coach a parting gift" as an excuse to arouse everyone's desire for the championship?
Tonini asked them again: "Let me ask you a question. Considering the bad relationship between Farias and Ettore, when he knows that the outcome of our game with Catalonia yesterday will determine Ettore's fate, you
What do you think he should do to suit his interests, or... his mood? Especially since in your mind, he is still a 'naughty kid' who completely ignores the overall situation and the interests of the team, and only knows how to play with his personal temper."
Everyone was speechless because in fact they already knew the answer.
Toni saw their reactions and continued:
"Do you all think that he should play badly and hope that the team loses the game so that the head coach he hates will also get out? But in the actual game, Farias has been working hard to help the team win the game...
...Of course his approach is questionable, but his thoughts are pure. Since our goal is to win the championship, I think that at least we can reach a consensus on this matter. Therefore, I am willing to have more expectations for him
.
"No matter how much you hate him, and how many reasons he has to be hated, at least until the end of this season, he has to fight side by side with you. Our goal is the Champions League championship. For this championship, whether we like it or not
If you like him, don't you have to work hard with him to achieve your goals? I'm not saying that we should be friends with him, I'm just saying that for the sake of the championship, let's put those controversies aside. Work hard to win the championship,
