Sitting on the sofa, Zeng Cheng and Li Xuepeng looked at the three photos on the wall and were silent for a long time.
After more than ten minutes, Li Xuepeng spoke: "In addition to these three photos, there is another photo in the room I live in now, which was left by Dong Fangzhuo."
Zeng Cheng responded: "I saw it before. It was a photo of Dong Fangzhuo when he was at Manchester United. It was a photo of Dong Fangzhuo, Rooney and Ronaldo. The three of them were high-spirited and looked very arrogant."
Li Xuepeng wanted to break the dull atmosphere and said with a smile: "It seems that in Dong Fangzhuo's heart, he joined Monaco because of coach Yunsheng and other brothers, but in his heart, Manchester United is his favorite."
Zeng Cheng nodded: "Yes, after all, Manchester United was Dong Fangzhuo's first stop abroad. At that time, he was the star of hope of Manchester United. Although he has been around in circles, but now he is back, it is not bad. Even if he cannot reach the level of Cristiano Ronaldo and Rooney's achievements, but to be able to become Manchester United's main striker, Dong Fangzhuo's overseas career has been very successful."
"The Ligue 1 team has an unprecedented five crowns, the best player and top scorer in Ligue 1, and a double crown in the Premier League. The achievements Dong Fangzhuo has achieved now are beyond the reach of many big-name stars in their lifetime. Even if he retires now, his A green life is worth it!" Li Xuepeng looked at the photos on the wall with envy.
Zeng Cheng whispered: "Do you think one day, the two of us will be able to achieve their achievements?"
"This...I think it's unlikely. After all, the team's lineup is now severely drained, and coach Yun Sheng is not here. The possibility of repeating the miracle of five crowns is slim. I think it is even more difficult than when we compete in the World Cup." Disaster……"
When Li Xuepeng said this, he suddenly laughed: "Isn't it a bit far-fetched to consider this now? We are not the main players now. It is too early to win the championship."
Zeng Cheng shook his head: "Now that all your competitors are gone, Makelele also values you very much. As long as you can perform at a normal level, I believe you will definitely get a chance to play. But I am different. When I come to the team Being directly transferred to the youth team, it is not yet known when he will be able to return to the first team..."
Zeng Cheng's face showed a little loneliness.
Li Xuepeng said with relief: "Brother Zeng, don't worry. You are only in the youth team temporarily. Maybe you can join the first team in the new season."
Zeng Cheng let out a sigh of relief: "Even if he makes it to the first team, so what? Now Hildebrand is the absolute main force. Without special circumstances, the goalkeeper position will definitely not be easily replaced. Besides, the team now has 24 The 20-year-old French goalkeeper Rufie is also ahead of me in the starting lineup, so maybe I won’t get a chance to play in the new season.”
Li Xuepeng continued to comfort Zeng Cheng: "I heard Zhang Linpeng tell me that in Monaco, Chinese players play in the youth team. This is a long tradition. Young Chinese people who come to Monaco, if they have not experienced in the youth team But I’m embarrassed to say that I’m from Monaco.”
"When Chen Tao came to Monaco with the title of genius, he performed well in the pre-season friendly matches, but he was still sent to the youth team by coach Yun Sheng. I heard that coach Yun Sheng gave him a goal - ten goals and ten assists. Only by completing this goal can he return to the first team. However, Chen Tao is indeed a genius. He only used five youth team games to complete this goal, successfully returned to the first team, became the main player, and was elected to the first team that season. The best player in Ligue 1."
"Later Zhang Linpeng came to Monaco, and he was also transferred to the youth team by coach Yun Sheng. Coach Yun Sheng also gave him a goal - ten goals and ten clean sheets. It took Zhang Linpeng half a year to achieve this goal, and he was still in Beckham and Wang Chuhe both achieved this while finding their form in the youth team. But precisely because of this, Zhang Linpeng not only has excellent defensive ability, but his ability to provide assists has also been greatly improved."
"We have both joined Monaco now. In fact, you are stronger than me, but the competition pressure is greater for the same position. So don't look for you in the youth team, just adapt to the rhythm of Ligue 1. After all, Hilde will be there next season. Now that Bran has left the team, you will definitely get a lot of playing opportunities, I’m sure!”
Listening to Li Xuepeng's comfort, Zeng Cheng was quite moved: "Brother, thank you for comforting me. It's just the two of us today. There are some things I haven't said to others, so I'll talk to you now."
"Actually, coach Makelele wanted me to play in the first team, but after he called Hildebrand to ask for his opinion, Hildebrand asked me to be placed in the youth team to participate in youth team games for training. , Coach Makelele also agreed."
"Originally, this was normal. After all, I was still young. I really needed to adapt to the rhythm of different leagues when I first arrived. However, Hildebrand suggested to coach Makelele that he should set a goal for me. Well, it was the same goal that coach Yun Sheng had before. A way. If I achieve my goal, I can return to the first team."
Li Xuepeng asked curiously: "What is the goal?"
Zeng Cheng paused and whispered: "Twenty clean sheets."
Li Xuepeng thought he heard wrongly: "What? The number you just said was twenty?"
Zeng Cheng nodded: "You heard it right, it's twenty times. Hildebrand said on the phone that coach Yunsheng's previous requirements were based on the 10+10 standard. For example, 10 goals + 10 goals Assists, or 10 goals + 10 clean sheets."
"Then why do you have to keep twenty clean sheets?"
"Hildebrand said that Chen Tao and Zhang Linpeng were also 10+10 before, with a total of 20 goal sub-items. As a goalkeeper, I can only use the number of clean sheets as a reference, so I was directly asked to complete 20 clean sheets. "
"This goal is too difficult to achieve..."
"Hildebrand said that if I can't achieve my goal before the end of the season, I can still return to the first team next season, but then I can only be on the bench. If I can't achieve 20 clean sheets target, he will suggest that Ruffiye should take over his position and become Monaco's main goalkeeper next season."
"This is a bit too much..."
Seeing Li Xuepeng's worried expression, Zeng Cheng's eyes were extremely firm.
"No matter how difficult the goal is, the road must go on. It is impossible for me to complain to coach Yunsheng, nor will I tell coaches Hildebrand and Makelele that I can't do it."
"I am the number one goalkeeper of the Chinese team, and I now represent all the goalkeepers in the Chinese team, so I absolutely cannot be defeated!"
"I will try my best to return to the first team as soon as possible! I want to use my strength to tell everyone that Chinese goalkeepers are also capable of establishing themselves in the top European leagues!"
