The days spent training are always very boring but also very fulfilling.
Su Dong can see his progress every day from the personal attribute panel of the Ball King's Road system, which makes him particularly motivated to train every day. He is the most dedicated and focused among the three.
Ronnie has the best talent.
In the words of Nuno Cruz, his African ancestry gave him muscles that were different from others, which made him particularly talented in physical training and improved faster than others.
Therefore, even though Ronnie often has to deal with some family matters or even be busy with social activities on the island, in fact, his entry is similar to Su Dong's. This is only possible when Su Dong is extremely focused and can keep up with him.
.
It can be seen that some talents are indeed innate.
Pepe is the toughest among the three. He also trains with Su Dong and Ronnie on weekdays. Nuno Cruz occasionally gets interested and will give him a few words, which benefits Pepe a lot.
, the progress is not small.
The Brazilian central defender is still the strongest among the three.
Every afternoon, after training in the gym, for a short break, Su Dong, Ronnie and Pepe would go to a nearby park to practice.
One of the most important training sessions is the sparring session between Su Dong and Pepe.
After a period of systematic physical training, Su Dong's body has improved a lot. Although he is still at a disadvantage facing Pepe, he is not completely passive, especially when Pepe still has a hand.
But gradually, Su Dong was no longer satisfied with this intensity.
…
"If you continue to practice like this, I estimate that by July, when you go back, I will no longer be able to suppress you."
After the training, Pepe took the Manniu drink from Su Dong and laughed.
In the last two days of training, Su Dong has begun to be able to compete with Pepe.
As an opponent, this is not a good thing, but at this moment, Pepe is very happy for Su Dong.
Because they are friends.
"Pipei, I know you still have a hand." Su Dong said with a solemn expression.
"No, really not." Pepe shook his head.
"At least you didn't do what you did in the Portuguese Cup semi-finals."
"That's different."
"What's the difference?"
Pepe spread his hands with a wry smile, "We were enemies then, and of course I would use all possible means to deal with you, but now we are friends, and I will not use those means and tricks to deal with my friends."
Regarding this point, Pepe is very clear about it.
But Su Dong shook his head, "No, you are wrong, Pepe. I hope you can use your little tricks, tricks, and even dirty methods."
"No, no, no, that won't work, we are friends." Pepe shook her head like a rattle.
He still remembers that Su Dong didn't expose him at the restaurant at noon that day.
"Listen to me, Pepe, we are training. For me, sparring with you is very valuable. It is a training opportunity to exercise physical confrontation ability and improve physical skills. Even if you don't use it, you can come to the Portuguese Super League next."
, our opponents will still use it on me, and they will even use it on me a hundred times a thousand times."
"In this case, I still hope that you will use all your methods now to prepare me mentally in advance, so that I will be more calm when meeting them in the future, right?"
Su Dong's smile made Pepe feel reassured, and he began to understand Su Dong's intentions.
"That's right, Pepe, I agree with what Su said." Ronnie also supported, "You don't know, when Su and I were sparring in the Edward VII Park in Lisbon, this guy was called a loser.
No matter how hard he goes, he can't even grab the ball and just wraps around me like an octopus."
"Aren't you the same? Who has been beaten by me and deliberately pulled my pants?" Su Dong "retaliated".
Ronnie was a little embarrassed, "I was not careful."
"I was not careful either." Su Dong smiled.
"You did it on purpose. You are a loser. Your best trick is to scratch my itch."
"Is this the trick?"
After saying that, Su Dong had already used his dragon-clawed hand to catch something with perfect accuracy.
Pepe watched the two people playing and having fun on the sidelines, and it seemed as if they were infected by their joyful mood. He also laughed happily, and he was extremely envious of the deep relationship between the two.
He has never met such a friend since he was a child.
"Su, then I'm really rude?" Pepei called out to Su Dong.
Su Dong stopped, nodded and said: "We Chinese have a saying, sweat more in peacetime and bleed less in war. This means that the closer training is to actual combat, the more effective it will be in competition."
"So, don't worry, young man, just close the door and let the dogs out!"
…
As a player who grew up on the streets of Brazil and received training in a team like Maritimo, Pepe's defense was really dirty and rough, especially when he fully unleashed his bestiality, Su Dong once again couldn't resist it.
.
Sometimes he even wondered if there was someone dedicated to training Pepe in this area?
The answer is really yes.
According to Pepe, the coach who taught them defense in Maritimo said that in the professional league, there is almost no defensive player who is not dirty, even the acclaimed world's top central defenders Nesta and Maldini.
and Cannavaro et al.
"They are not dirty because their opponents are not worth their dirty work!"
"If they encounter a troublesome opponent, they will still resort to all possible means, and even use various methods in an endless stream, which is amazing."
Su Dong was very curious. Is the central defender Nesta, who is said to be as elegant as art, really so dirty?
But he believed what Pepe said.
The so-called elegance is based on strength advantage.
Everyone has been passed by each other, and the door is about to be kicked. At this time, who cares whether it is dirty or not?

…………
Su Dong and Ronnie practiced hard in seclusion on the isolated island of Madeira, but there were news from outside the island every day.
Su Dong was not interested in other news. He only cared about the Portuguese Super League and Sporting Lisbon.
In the Portuguese Super League, the most exciting news is Porto’s purchase.
After putting out the fire in the middle of last season, Mourinho ushered in his first transfer period. Porto seemed to have turned on the money printing machine, waving the checks in their hands and buying stars in the Portuguese Super League.
The first to sign were full-backs Paulo Ferreira from Setubal and Valente from Leiria. Both players were appointed by Mourinho, and Valente was still coached by Mourinho.
The beloved general of Leiria.
Charlton's Premier League high school defender Jorge Costa has returned, Benfica's midfielder Maniche has also transferred to Porto, plus Leiria's Brazilian forward Delle...
Porto is like a local tycoon, constantly poaching players they like from their rivals in the Portuguese Super League.
It can be said that in addition to Sporting Lisbon, there is no other top-ranked team such as Boavista, Benfica, Maritimo, Setubal, Leiria, etc. whose main star has not been poached.
It is not difficult to see from this that Porto has great financial strength.
…
Unlike Porto, which is rich and wealthy, Benfica has also received strong poaching, but it has made little progress.
German goalkeeper Enke moved to Barcelona, and midfielder Maniche moved to Porto. But in the blink of an eye, Benfica introduced Brazilian midfielder Giovani from Barcelona, and veteran defender El from Deportivo.
Germany, and then introduced international midfielder Petit from Boavista who performed well last season.
Among them, both Giovanni and Petit were favored by Sporting Lisbon, but Benfica took the lead.
These two transfers not only strengthened Benfica's strength, but also hit Sporting Lisbon's transfer operations.
…
Unlike the wealthy Porto and the shrewd rivals Benfica, Sporting Lisbon has suffered considerable financial constraints and has never been able to invest in the transfer market.
After winning a historic double and completing a successful season, Boloni's team began to fall apart.
First, the young midfielder Hugo Viana was transferred to Newcastle in the Premier League. This transaction brought 12 million euros to Sporting Lisbon. Viana also created the highest transfer rate for a player under the age of 20 in the Premier League.
Will record.
It is not difficult to see from this how much coach Robson attaches importance to Rui Costa II.
Agent Mendes played a major role in this transfer process.
But at the same time, main center back Phil Babb announced that he would not renew his contract with Sporting Lisbon. He has currently ended his contract in the Portuguese Super League and moved to Sunderland in the Premier League on a free agency.
And Greek center Nalikis.
Sporting Lisbon's previous contract with Udinese was a loan first and then a buyout, but now that the loan period is up, Sporting Lisbon is not willing to pay a buyout fee for Nalikis, so the Greek center returned to Udinese and was loaned out.
Went to Greece.
In addition, there are first-team players such as Diogo, Martins, Vidigal, etc., who are either passing the ball or have already entered into actual operations, and will leave the team in the near future.
The team is currently trying hard to retain Andre Cruz, hoping to retain this defensive pillar after Phil Babb leaves the team. At the same time, the team is also strengthening the signings on the back line.
.
As for the midfielder, the departure of Hugo Viana was a big blow to Sporting Lisbon, but they were frustrated in the introduction of Giovanni and Petit, so Sporting Lisbon could only recall Spanish midfielder Tonito from Santa Clara.
This player performed well in the Portuguese Super League last season and has high hopes for the new season.
On the forward line, the departure of Nalikis has not had a big impact on Sporting Lisbon. So far, there has been no news that the team wants to sign players on the forward line. Boloni said in a public interview, "We have Jardel.
The three centers of Kulay and Sudong are fully sufficient to cope with all the games in the new season."
Such a statement is tantamount to recognizing Su Dong's status in the team, which reassures Su Dong who is far away in Madeira.
But no one knows that after just experiencing its peak, it was immediately torn apart. Facing the wealthy Porto and the unkind Benfica, how much fighting power can Sporting Lisbon retain in the new season?
At this moment, Mendez, who was taking a break from his busy schedule, also came to Madeira Island.
