"I first want to apologize to everyone." In a military camp somewhere in the Yanshan Mountains, the Chinese national team is holding a meeting for the second phase of military training. It is also the first summary meeting that truly goes deep into the tactical level after returning from the defeat in the Confederations Cup in South Africa.
.
As the captain and player representative, Wang Ai spoke first. This time it was not the political sense of taking responsibility like Lao Gao, but a down-to-earth summary meeting to improve combat effectiveness. It wanted to talk about practical things and touch the soul.
"I ignored the difficulty of the competition and the shortcomings of our insufficient preparation for the competition. Based on my own achievements, I rashly made a declaration of winning the Golden Ball and Golden Boot." Wang Ai sat on the curtained table.
In the conference room, he said sincerely: "I always tell myself not to be proud, but unknowingly I still underestimated my opponents and the game. My speech aggravated the team's contempt for the game and aggravated the team's blind optimism.
.So within the team, I have to take the main responsibility.”
23 heroes gathered around the long conference table, with Lao Gao, Lao Liu, Lao Zhang and others on the periphery.
Now is the stage of full military democracy, and it is dominated by players. In order to avoid the preconceptions of senior coaches, they have been deprived of the right to speak at this stage. It will not be until the players have discussed the results and come up with the conclusions of the coaching staff.
.
Chen Tao looked around and spoke secondly: "The boss's words also have a certain impact on me, but personally it is not the main thing. He is proud, but I am actually more proud. I am not a genius like him since childhood.
I have made achievements in my field and gained confidence. I am just a child from an ordinary worker's family in Anshan. It has been less than 20 years since I started training when I was 5 years old. I am still young, but what I earn in one year is what my father earns in a thousand years.
. My improvement was too fast, so I subconsciously thought that as long as I kept going, no matter how high I was, I could have a chance. So the boss underestimated the enemy, and I underestimated the enemy even more. I should be the most familiar with the Spanish team, but
I didn't take advantage of that."
People nodded and whispered, and Zhou Haibin rarely spoke: "I think my problem may be that I am too dependent on the boss. When we played the United States and the second time we played Spain, I didn't pay enough attention and my subjective initiative was not good enough."
Speaking of this, Zhou Haibin looked at everyone: "Maybe all of us, oh, the big brothers are not talking about you, I am talking about those of us who grew up with the boss. It has been too long, and the boss always takes the lead.
As we move up the ladder, he has been the number one shooter since childhood, and is even the most efficient shooter in the world now. But what about us?"
Zhou Haibin pointed to his chest and shook his head: "We are not worthy of the boss."
"Hey..." Wang Ai raised his hand, and Zhou Haibin glared at Wang Ai: "Shut up... Boss, shut up!"
Guo Liang interjected: "That's right, boss, don't say anything. We can't talk to you when you say it, and we can't talk to you if you don't make sense. You are always leading us, so we rely too much on you, and we ourselves have nothing to do with you."
I'm very energetic, and I want you to solve any problem."
Feng Xiaoting said slowly: "Besides, you can always solve it."
Gao Lin also said: "We are born in sorrow and die in happiness. Our life in the national team is a bit too good. At least from my personal feelings, I am still nervous and scared when playing in the professional team, but in the national team
, Well, when I think about the boss being here, I can't help but relax."
Mao Jianqing rubbed his head: "Actually, it wasn't like this when I was a kid. I was very hard-working at that time. Well, I hadn't learned how to drink at that time. Anyway, I still wanted to compete with the boss at that time, so I was quite motivated. But I don't know why.
It's been like this since then. If you don't say anything today, I won't realize it. You are right, Lao Zhou, so go on."
Zhou Haibin was silent for a while: "Outside of this room, no one may be aware of the problems we have and the problems in our hearts. From the outside, we also work very hard. We worked so hard in the Olympics last year that no one was left. No one can say that we are not good."
Work hard. But we can hide it from others, but we cannot hide it from ourselves. Gao Lin just said that as long as the boss is here, we are not afraid and can relax. It is appropriate to relax appropriately during the game, but are we too relaxed and too lacking in tension?
Are you feeling it? Or, as the boss said, his confidence drives our blind optimism?"
Everyone was thinking, Dong Fangzhuo raised his head, Zhao Xuri patted him on the back: "If you fart, let it go."
"Hey, let me put one in." Dong Fangzhuo said shyly: "I remember that the boss came back from the UK with me again, um, about two years ago, and when he was giving me a lecture on the way, he said, um, it seems like this
, saying that our Chinese football performance was too poor in the past and everyone had no confidence, so he wanted to be a little more arrogant to attack everyone's lack of confidence. Well, it seems to be saying that we should use pride to counteract inferiority, right boss?"
Wang Ai looked confused: "Maybe, I have said too much."
The handsome guy Zeng Cheng sat quite far away. He and Wang Ai were both born in 1987. The participants were called 84 National Juniors. The main force was born in 1985. In addition, in the past few years, his personality has become a bit introverted.
. He didn’t raise his hand until he heard this. Chen Tao nodded: “Xiao Zeng, tell me!”
"I have been following classes with experts these days, and I think the old man has a saying that can explain our current problems."
"Oh?" Everyone became interested, and even Lao Zhang, who was watching, opened his eyes.
"Strategically, we despise the enemy; tactically, we pay attention to the enemy." Zeng Cheng said and then shut up. Everyone was still waiting for him with their necks stretched out. Under the intimidation of the eyes of all the "big brothers", Zeng Cheng hesitated and said calmly: "Actually,
That’s what happened.”
"What's going on?" Qiu Shengjiong urged.
"It's because we didn't grasp the boundary well, and extended part of the strategic contempt to tactics, turning it into a specific method of not paying attention to the opponent." Zeng Cheng wanted to shut up again, but this time he was photographed by Sun Jihai beside him.
After a slap in the face, I had to continue: "In the past, according to what the boss said and what I observed, it should be a tactical emphasis, which extended to a part of the strategy and turned into fear. The boss wanted to hedge, but he was too fierce.
I went too far and ended up like this."
Everyone nodded one after another. After talking for a long time, we finally got to the point and connected it with the results of recent study.
Zhou Haibin looked at the ceiling, put one hand on the table, and knocked a few times unconsciously, and everyone fell silent.
"I feel that I am mentally lazy, exhausted in motivation, and have become dependent on the boss. In fact, what I just said is not entirely correct. When I say that we are not worthy of the boss, I am not talking about our absolute strength, but our
mentality." Having said this, Zhou Haibin lowered his head and looked at everyone, and at Wang Ai: "It's been a long time since I had a duel with the boss!"
