When Su Dong's voice rang out in the conference room, everyone else who had already stood up to leave turned their heads to look.
Everyone in the audience focused their attention on Su Dong. Some were surprised, some were pleasantly surprised, and some were looking forward to...
Ronnie was slightly excited because he knew that Su Dong had finally taken that step.
Boloni was in the surprised category, because in his impression, Su Dong had always been an honest child. A sudden move like today was really beyond his expectation.
At the same time, he also suddenly realized that he didn't know when Su Dong's name for him changed from "Boss" during last season and this season's training to "Mr. Boloni" now.
The former is respectful, while the latter is clearly distant.
But at this moment, Boloni didn't have too much thought about the title. He coughed twice, nodded and said: "Ask."
Everyone else sat back down, wondering in their hearts, what exactly did Su Dong want to ask?
Su Dong stood up and looked directly at Boloni.
"The question I want to ask is, am I going to play tomorrow night against Santa Clara?"
As soon as he finished speaking, there was an uproar in the conference room.
Obviously everyone was surprised by Su Dong's sharp question. Is this like Su Dong's character?
But soon, everyone realized that Su Dong could not bear it anymore.
Not everyone can sit on the bench willingly, waiting for opportunities to come.
Boloni's face became very ugly, because he knew that this had long been discussed among Alcoschetti's players.
"Su, you have to trust me. I will consider whether to arrange for you to play based on the situation on the court. You have to be patient." Boloni tried his best to soften his tone and at the same time wanted to protect his authority.
"I've heard this a few times, but so far this season I've played zero minutes."
When Su Dong said this, he smiled at the head coach, "My idea is that I am still young, less than 18 years old. If the first team doesn't need me, then I might as well go to the second team to play games and maintain my condition.
."
There was an uproar in the conference room again.
I have only heard of people trying their best to get into the first team, but I have never heard of anyone taking the initiative to be transferred to the second team. Su Dong should be the only one, but if you think about it carefully, it is indeed the case.
The first team doesn't get any game time, so what's the use of using substitutes every game?
Su Dong was using retreat as an opportunity to advance.
In any case, his performance at the end of last season is there. The club management, media and fans have all seen it. If he is sent back to the second team at this time without any problems,
Wouldn't that further confirm the fact that Boloni employs nepotism?
More importantly, Su Dong's contract has a playing time limit. If he is transferred to the second team, how will Boloni explain to the management?
In fact, during this period, technical director Aurelio Pereira was already concerned about this issue.
…
"I think what Su said makes sense. He hasn't played in a game for a long time. He should go to the second team to find his condition. Anyway, the first team has no shortage of forwards." Ronnie shouted with an attitude of fearing that the world would not be in chaos.
After finishing speaking, the Madeira boy raised his eyebrows at Su Dong, as if asking, buddy, how good is my assist?
"I think Su should not go to the second team. Some adjustments should be made to the playing time of first-team players. Other capable players, especially young players like Su, should be given more playing time." An
Dre Cruise is a veteran in the team, and he also stood up and expressed his opinion.
Captain Barbosa also stood up, "Whether it is pre-season training or daily training within the team, Su's performance is obvious to all. I think that in some games, he should be given more opportunities and trust. Some players
Since he is not in good condition, let him rest and adjust his condition before going on again!"
Barbossa's words pointed the finger at Bologna's favorite general Nikolai.
Boloni's statement to the outside world was very simple. He knew that Nikolai was in poor condition, but he did not think that the effect of others would be better than that of Nikolai, so he would rather let Nikolai adjust his condition slowly during the game.
But what Barbosa said is that if the player is not in good condition, he should be replaced and someone in good condition should be replaced.
Only with competition can there be progress!
To put it bluntly, no one is willing to publicly expose the fact that Boloni employs nepotism.
Once this fig leaf is lifted, the head coach's steps will be taken away.
Of course, in the current situation, even the captain has come forward to speak out, and the situation has become a bit like forcing the palace.
"Sometimes, it's not necessarily a bad thing to change your thinking appropriately." Albertini also spoke, "I think young and energetic players like Su, Ronnie and Quaresma are exactly what we need.
What is currently lacking.”
Even Quaresma, who was usually a dull gourd, stood up and said, "I personally feel that I can cooperate better with Su Dong."
He still remembers the pass that Su Dong sent him in the Portuguese Cup final.
So far this season, Niculai has never given him a similar pass, or even intended it.
…
Everyone was talking a lot and the scene was a bit noisy.
Su Dong was surprised. He originally just wanted to force Boloni, but he didn't expect that he would "force" so many noises.
It can be seen that everyone has endured it for a long time and it is very uncomfortable.
Is this what Robson meant?
Boloni was also surprised and a little panicked at the top.
The head coach's power is of course superior, but this superiority is based on the players' support for him.
If players have begun to question him as a head coach, will they be willing to execute tactics on the court?
More importantly, Boloni felt that his authority was being challenged and had even been severely weakened.
If his prestige in the locker room reached its peak during the Double Championship period, now he has plummeted.
Where did it fall?
Boloni didn't know what he was doing, so he was panicking.
If he had followed his original character, Boloni would definitely have killed Su Dong as a warning to others and suppressed the rebellious Su Dong. But now, he was subconsciously warning himself that he couldn't do this. If he really wanted to do this, he would probably follow suit as soon as Su Dong went down.
He also went down.
Since you can't kill one person to scare others, you can only be gentle.
After all, Boloni had been coaching for many years. He made a decision in his heart and immediately smiled with a smile on his face.
"I have heard everyone's voices, and their suggestions are all very good. I think I can give it a try, starting from this game."
When everyone heard this, their attention turned to Boloni again.
"Su, I can promise you that I will give you at least twenty minutes of competition time in this game. You should prepare well. I hope to see your outstanding performance."
After finishing speaking, Boloni smiled at everyone present, turned around and left.
Everyone saw off the head coach, but they did not become happy because of it. Instead, they turned to look at Su Dong.
Now, all the pressure is on Su Dong.
In this way, I gained playing time, but at the same time, I also put heavy pressure on myself.
If the performance of the game is not good, then Boloni can reduce Su Dong's playing time more openly, because Su Dong's performance is not much better than Nikolai, or even worse.
Then, as long as Boloni coached Sporting Lisbon, Sudong's situation would not improve.
Of course, if Su Dong performed well, that would be a different matter.
Su Dong felt the eyes around him, some were concerned, some were cold-eyed, some were even gloating about his misfortune, and at the same time there was fear.
"Don't worry, I'm ready!" Su Dong said confidently.
"I will definitely help you!" Ronnie came over and stood firmly beside Su Dong.
Andrea Cruz and Albertini looked at each other, and the former saw a hint of appreciation in the latter's eyes.
He saw courage and determination in Su Dong.
…………
…………
"You saw it too, Marius."
As soon as Boloni finished the meeting, he turned around and called Nikolai to his office.
"Su Dong couldn't help it anymore, and everyone else also spoke up for him. If you don't show good performance and condition, I won't be able to control the situation."
Boloni was also a little dissatisfied with his compatriot, because Nikule did really badly.
Apart from anything else, it’s been so long and he hasn’t even mastered Portuguese, which is unreasonable.
How can you play football if you follow the Romans when you come to Sporting Lisbon but can't blend in?
On the contrary, in any case, Su Dong did a good job.
As soon as he spoke out today, so many people supported him. If he performs well next, Boloni will be even more unable to hold back.
"Don't worry, I will be at my best in this weekend's game and I will definitely score a goal!" Nikolai gritted his teeth.
He also clearly realized that his good days had come to an end.
Jadel left, but Sudong appeared, and he was also worried about his position in the team.
"Don't worry, I will definitely support you." Boloni promised.
Coming to Portugal to coach was more like an unexpected encounter for Boloni.
His base has always been in Romania and France, where he is most familiar and has the best connections.
Therefore, he must support Nikolai at any time, because this is a compatriot he personally introduced.
Let me ask, if he does not fully support Nikule, what will happen to his reputation in Romania?
He can stop coaching Sporting Lisbon, but he has to return to Romania.
It was precisely because he understood this that Boloni chose Nikolai over and over again between Nikolai and Jardel.
Now, he knows better how to choose between Nikolai and Su Dong.
…
There is a saying that goes well: ideals are full but reality is skinny.
Just because you are determined to do it, doesn't mean you will definitely be able to do it.
In the game against Santa Clara, Nikule once again.
This time he really tried very hard to express himself. He ran regardless of his physical strength, but he never got a chance.
On the contrary, Santa Clara took the lead 1-0 with a goal from forward Joao Pedro in the 52nd minute of the second half.
Everyone seemed to see another defeat for the defending champion.
