The summer sea breeze is gentle, and the coconut trees on the golden beach are swaying slightly in the sun.
Seeing Rijkaard and Gullit wearing flowery pants and flowery shirts, Chen Mo was obviously stunned for a moment, but he quickly came to his senses, stretched out his right hand sideways and said with a smile: "Oh, I didn't expect to meet you here. . I haven’t heard from you for a long time, Mr. Frank.”
Chen Mo had a sunny smile on his face, but a teasing smile appeared at the corner of his mouth.
Rijkaard shook hands with him, rolled his eyes and said with a smile: "Didn't you hear from me? That's not all because of you!"
Rijkaard pulled away from the bench and sat down, lighting a cigarette and pretending to be unhappy.
This is normal. He was still coaching Barcelona a few months ago and had the opportunity to lead Barcelona to win the Champions League. However, he was defeated by Arsenal led by Chen Mo in the Champions League final.
The championship was gone, and Laporta was fired.
However, as the first coach to coach Chen Mo in the adult team, and as someone who already admired Chen Mo's style of play and character, Rijkaard did not express his anger at Chen Mo.
What's more, it's not just the past interactions, it's just that Chen Mo is willing to stay at Arsenal, which has been in financial difficulties in recent years, and he actually led Arsenal to defeat his dream second team Barcelona and win the Champions League.
Rijkaard now admires Chen Mo even more.
I admire both his skills and his character.
Soon, under the introduction of Rijkaard, Chen Mo also said hello to Gullit.
However, Gullit did not have much friendship with Chen Mo, and this ancient beast who once competed with Maradona had a rather arrogant personality. After saying hello, he sat next to him smoking, drinking coconut juice, and watching. Hot girls in bikinis coming and going.
Seeing this, Chen Mo hugged the chubby Keli to his side, but he didn't notice that Gulit rolled his eyes speechlessly after seeing this detail, "The little guy is quite protective of his food."
Chen Mo didn't know what Gullit was thinking and just chatted with Rijkaard with a smile.
Through chatting, Chen Mo learned about the other party’s purpose of coming to the United States.
Nothing serious, mainly because he was fired by Barcelona.
Normally, you can just find a team after being fired. After all, he is also the Champions League champion coach, so it is easy to find a team to coach.
only.
After experiencing the situation in the second half of last season when Barcelona needed to build a dual-core system due to the rise of Messi, Rijkaard found that his tactical ability was indeed lagging behind other top coaches.
So I prepared to take some time off for myself and think about my future plans.
A rich man, who is also an athlete himself, naturally cannot stay at home during the holidays, so Rijkaard asked Gullit to come to the United States for vacation.
After chatting for a while, Rijkaard drank coconut juice, glanced at Chen Mo's left foot under the table, and raised his eyebrows: "How is your foot recovering?"
"The doctor said that the effect of the operation was very good, and the wound has almost recovered. However, you know this stuff. It is useless to look at films and other things. You have to go through rehabilitation training to know the answer."
Chen Mo took a bite of the sandwich handed over by Keli with a serious look in his eyes.
However, it's not too solemn.
After going through the injury science for the past two months, he discovered that this injury is actually not as exaggerated as the rumor outside [if you get it, you will retire on the spot].
The most typical example is Da Luo.
Many people said that Ronaldo was ruined by frequent injuries, but after communicating with doctors these days, Chen Mo realized that Ronaldo's premature demise was not only due to injuries, but also due to man-made disasters.
In 2000, Ronaldo suffered a major injury to his right knee and ruptured the patellar tendon in his right knee.
This disease is more troublesome than Chen Mo's ruptured cruciate ligament.
At that time, the doctor at the hospital gave Ronaldo a diagnosis that recommended six to nine months of recuperation, [he would not be able to walk within six months and would not be able to participate in training within nine months], but at that time Ronaldo only recuperated for four months before making a comeback.
Inter Milan gave the reason that the team doctor made a misjudgment and believed that Ronaldo's recovery from injury was far better than expected and he could return to the team early. As a result, Ronaldo suffered another serious injury seven minutes after coming off the bench and completely ruptured the patellar tendon in his right knee.
Completely broken!
It's not like Chen Mo's ligament was broken, but it was completely broken!
This injury caused Ronaldo to be reimbursed for two seasons.
Of course, in the end, all the blame was placed on the team doctor, who was said to have made a misjudgment, but Chen Mo knew that Inter Milan's final result that season was fifth in the league, and Serie A had four Champions League seats.
It happened that the team doctor's diagnosis was wrong, it happened that Inter Milan was competing for a Champions League spot, and the game when Ronaldo came back was the very crucial Coppa Italia final.
If the three of them are put together exactly, will Ronaldo be destroyed by injuries or man-made disasters?
Without evidence, it can only be a matter of opinion and wisdom.
This is why Keli would rather risk falling out with all Arsenal shareholders and force Chen Mo to the United States for treatment.
She is a wild rose who has a very hard time trusting people.
Moreover, after suffering such a horrific injury in 2000, Ronaldo lost his individual explosive ability, which even in Chen Mo's opinion was still extremely terrifying.
But he still won the 2002 World Cup Golden Boot, and then won the La Liga Golden Boot in the 2004 season. With 31 goals in a single season, he could even compete for the European Golden Boot.
I can only say that there are reasons why people are called aliens.
but.
Everyone's physique and mental toughness are different. There are monsters like Robacho who can still stand on top of the world despite serious injuries, and there are also Shang Yongzhong who is completely unable to recover after suffering injuries like Pato Deisler. .
How far Chen Mo can recover in the end depends on two days of training on the ground after the cast is removed, and whether he can defeat his inner demons!
Yes, inner demons.
It sounds a bit fantasy, but it's easy to understand with another adjective - psychological trauma.
Many veterans who have been on the battlefield will suffer from psychological trauma after retirement. They will have stress reactions when hearing certain words or sounds. They are even afraid of hearing the sound of firecrackers or seeing sharp props.
Football players also suffer similar psychological symptoms after suffering serious injuries.
Of course, compared to battlefields and soldiers, the psychological trauma of players will definitely be much lighter, but ordinary people do not have as strong a psychological quality as soldiers.
This is why many players can clearly feel that after suffering injuries, those players no longer have the explosive power of the past.
Not only because of the physical reasons, but also because the players are very panicked and afraid that they will get injured again if they try their best.
This is actually a subconscious self-protection reaction.
Just like chasing a girl and giving everything but being let down, next time you meet a girl you like, even if you like her again, you will definitely restrain yourself a lot.
This reaction can be called "learning to be smart", but in fact it is the inner pain that makes people's own self-protection reactions contribute to "learning to be smart".
This is like why people need to eat, because they will be hungry.
But why are you hungry?
Because if you don’t eat when you are hungry, you will die. This is a warning from your body.
This is primal instinct.
"I don't know if I can bear it."
While chatting with Rijkaard, Chen Mo had a lot of thoughts in his heart. Thinking of this, there was some hesitation and fear in his eyes.
Yes, fear!
because
[Baggio’s hidden talent—Champion’s Heart (0/100)]
[Withstand the pain of the injury a hundred times, and the pain will be doubled]
[Effectiveness: The injury will be completely healed after rehabilitation training, and the injured part will receive the "Reinforced Iron Bone MAX+" bonus]
[Limited time: thirty-three days (the wound will heal after thirty-three days. If you want to summon this talent again, you need to re-open the healed wound)]
The injury is completely healed!
Extremely tempting!
But I recalled the feeling of being injured two months ago, the heart-wrenching feeling that my whole body was about to faint from the pain.
Chen Mo frowned unconsciously.
pain! It hurts so much!
It almost killed him that time, and now he has to endure it a hundred times!
The pain of a ruptured hamstring!
And the pain is doubled!
However, this is where Chen Mo feels uncomfortable!
This talent is not mandatory!
He needs Chen Mo to make his own choice!
If you feel that you cannot bear the double pain a hundred times, then let the injury heal on its own.
But it is a cruciate ligament after all. After natural healing, whether Chen Mo can return to his original peak state, no one knows!
It is to take a step back and gamble on luck, betting that I will be the lucky one who can still return to the top despite suffering a major injury.
He still grits his teeth and works hard, endures pain that ordinary people cannot bear, and endures psychological trauma that far exceeds that of similarly injured players, but he can control his destiny in his own hands!
Kneel down and pray for rain, or dig canals thousands of miles away to provide water?
How to choose between the two roads.
The decision lies with Chen Mo himself!
His thoughts were getting more and more confused, and seeing Chen Mo's expression getting heavier and heavier, Rijkaard looked thoughtful in his eyes, drank up the coconut juice in one gulp, and said with a smile: "It seems that I have picked the wrong topic. But... I remember When you were promoted to the Barcelona first team, the first thing you said to me was that you wanted to be better than Xavi, better than Guardiola, better than Cruyff, and even better than Maradona and Maradona. Players."
Chen Mo was stunned by the sudden words. Rijkaard stood up and patted his flowered shirt, with a teasing smile on his lips: "It's good to be ambitious, but now it seems that you are falling behind. I mean Xiao Mo, You don’t want to be laughed at by Leo with the Golden Globe Award in the future.”
"."
Speechless, he didn't expect Rijkaard to show up. Chen Mo's heavy mood turned into speechless again, but he thought about Messi winking at himself on the podium holding the Golden Globe Award.
Thinking of this picture, Chen Mo's slightly hesitant eyes showed a hint of perseverance and a hint of ferocity!
Feeling the change in Chen Mo's eyes, Rijkaard turned and left, smiled and waved his hand: "Haha, I'm leaving then, but Luther and I will stay here for a while. If you want to find someone to chat, You can call me."
This guy is always good at teaching others.
Watching Rijkaard's leaving figure, Chen Mo shook his head in amusement. The perseverance and ferocity in his eyes gradually disappeared, replaced by calmness and gratitude like water.
Rijkaard is very dark-looking and very tough on the court, but in private he is actually a kind-hearted and easy-going person who is good at teaching others.
When Chen Mo was 16 years old and preparing to join the Barcelona first team, because Laporta was unwilling to sell players at low prices, Chen Mo could not get a non-European quota and could only play ten games a season.
Somewhat angry, Chen Mo wanted to leave at that time, but thinking of the teachings of Guardiola and Coach Zach Joseph, he still signed a short-term contract with Barcelona with a release fee of 20 million euros.
Twenty million euros is a lot, but compared to Chen Mo's talent, it is still very low.
Everyone in the Barcelona team knew Chen Mo's talent. At that time, Laporta did not want Chen Mo to play in any game, let alone ten games, because he wanted to force Chen Mo to re-sign the contract.
But Rijkaard cared about talent and still let Chen Mo play, and this was how the subsequent development took place.
Chen Mo has always been grateful to Rijkaard.
Chen Mo was a little emotional. On the other side, Rijkaard and Rijkaard were walking on the beach. Gullit was eating hot dogs and glanced at the sexy bikini beauties coming and going. He asked curiously: "Why are you helping that little guy? He But he's Argentinian."
Hearing this question, Rijkaard was stunned and said with a smile: "It doesn't matter what the Argentinian is, I just like to watch him play."
.
The days passed.
Chen Mo was injured at the end of August. Now more than two months have passed, and some earth-shaking changes have taken place in the football world.
The center of the storm is undoubtedly Manchester United.
Now that thirteen rounds of the Premier League have passed, Manchester United has won twelve and drawn one of thirteen games, ranking first with 37 points. As the absolute core of Manchester United's offense, Ronaldo's condition is indeed getting stronger day by day.
Fifteen goals scored in thirteen games!
You must know that this is not later, in this era, thirty goals can win the European Golden Boot! Two years ago Henry won the European Golden Boot with 31 goals!
Now that the schedule is not even halfway through, Cristiano Ronaldo has scored fifteen goals!
And after he scored twice against Manchester City in the twelfth round, he also made his signature [siu~~~] for the first time.
Suddenly, the outside world claimed that Manchester United would make a comeback and reassert their dominance!
Many media and fans have even started to build momentum, claiming that the Golden Globe Award in December this year should be awarded to Ronaldo!
Very nonsense.
It's not that Ronaldo didn't perform well this season, but the Ballon d'Or is awarded to the player with the best performance last season.
This year is the 0708 season, and last season Chen Mo led the team to win the Champions League championship and the America's Cup championship, achieving the national team Grand Slam, but
This does not affect the harsh words of extreme fans.
Ever since, as Ronaldo's condition got better and better, and as the Ballon d'Or award ceremony drew closer, public opinion from the outside became more and more turbulent, and fans from both sides became quarrelsome.
However, because Chen Mo was injured and retired for two months, there were no news reports during this period. In addition, due to the sudden loss of Chen Mo, Arsenal's current performance has dropped to sixth in the league.
Gradually, fans who like Chen Mo and Arsenal began to be at a disadvantage.
The outside world was turbulent, but none of this affected Chen Mo.
"Be careful and don't be too hasty."
Boston, beach house.
The waves caress the beach and the trees sway in the sun.
In the backyard of the villa, under the watchful eyes of a group of relatives, friends and doctors, Chen Mo, who was wearing casual shorts and short sleeves and had the cast off his left foot, stood up from the wheelchair with his right foot on the ground with the help of Yuechi Xun and Keli.
The sea breeze blows on my face.
Under everyone's expectant and worried eyes, Chen Mo gently stepped on the soft gravel with his left foot. Then, amidst the exclamations, Chen Mo closed his eyes and took a deep breath, and took a somewhat unfamiliar step towards the blue sea. Left foot.
