I Want to Be the King of Football

The morning after the game, Manchester Carrington training base.

Nuno Cruise received the newly released test data from the Manchester City team doctor, which records in detail the test results that Su Dong has just completed. Some of the important data indicators are viewed by Nuno Cruise Draw a black line on the side.

Finally, the person in charge of Su Dong's personal coaching staff put down the report in his hand, nodded and smiled with the surrounding team doctors and personal trainers, and finally looked at Su Dong, who had already been sweating profusely.

"Various test results are good, and it should be possible to play on weekends."

As soon as Nuno Cruise finished speaking, Su Dong was relieved and laughed.

Although nominally, Nuno Cruise is an expert hired by Su Dong, but in fact, he decides whether Su Dong can play the key, and after every game, he will test Su Dong's physical indicators.

Of course, Su Dong can object, or even disobey Nuno Cruise's professional opinions, but this is irresponsible to himself.

The outside world generally believes that with Su Dong’s current state, it is not a problem to play until the age of 40, but this is based on Su Dong’s ability to follow the opinions of the personal coaching team and cooperate with them. If he is headstrong, God knows how long he can play?

Su Dong asked himself that he is not an expert in this area, but he believes in professionalism and science.

This should be regarded as his greatest feature.

Of course, sometimes, especially when he is prevented from playing, he will still feel a little depressed, because this is equivalent to spending money to find a leader for himself, controlling his body.

To some extent, the body of a professional player does not belong to him.

Not to mention Nuno Cruz, if in some games, Guardiola forced Su Dong to play, he really can't refuse.

Of course, this is just an assumption, because once this is done, it means that the cooperation between the two parties is broken, and the final result is that no one can get any benefit. The head coach will not do this kind of thing under normal circumstances.

Especially facing a superstar like Su Dong.

"Everyone and I are working intensively to prepare for you this summer training program. Our preliminary estimate is that you have to lose at least five kilograms to make the whole person lighter, so that the load on your legs will be effectively reduced."

"Weight loss by five kilograms?" Su Dong frowned.

Nuno Cruise nodded affirmatively, "This is just the beginning. It is estimated that some weight will be reduced every year."

"But in this case, my physical strength will definitely decline." Su Dong was a little embarrassed.

In fact, he now has a lot of technical moves, and even many goals on the court, are achieved by physical superiority.

Especially in recent years, in European football, there is basically no defender who can take advantage of Su Dong's body, especially after the generation of central defenders such as Lucio and Vidic get old, Su Dong has played in European football. Altar is invincible.

Just like the game against Real Madrid, Ramos and Albiol were in front of Su Dong, basically not enough.

But if there is no tyrannical body, the threat of Su Dong will drop a lot.

"This is an inevitable result, and it is a slow decline process, the impact will not be so big." Nuno Cruise explained, "And you should also know that after age, physical function will decline, transformation is Sure, you have to reduce your physical contact appropriately, otherwise, you will get more and more injuries."

Just like Drogba, his body was a bull when he was young. Who can handle him in European football?

But the result of relying too much on the body is that after getting older, the kicking method has not had time to transform, and more and more injuries.

To put it bluntly, as I get older, my body functions decline, and my body strength is not as good as that of young people.

"Don't worry, we have done deductions. Even if you don't rely on your body, as long as you can maintain your body's flexibility, speed and explosiveness, the skills at your feet are still delicate, and your threat on the court will not be weakened. It's just that the team builds tactics. Appropriate adjustments must be made when the time comes."

Su Dong doesn't doubt Nuno Cruise's professionalism, so he must have a whole set of plans.

…

Defeating Real Madrid four to one at home has become the most exciting thing for Manchester City.

Even players who are optimistic about the team’s prospects can’t believe that their team can reach the quarter-finals in the Champions League for the first time, and now they beat Real Madrid 4-1 in the first leg with one foot. Semi-finals.

That was the Champions League semi-final!

What does this mean?

The whole world knows that all the teams that have reached the semi-finals of the Champions League basically have the strength to win the championship. There is no much suspense about who will enter the final and who will win the championship.

After all, the team that can climb out of the group stage, which is a test of strength, to the brutal knockout stage, is definitely not simple.

Manchester City is now even faintly becoming a big hit.

However, even if it really crossed Real Madrid, Barcelona is in front of Manchester City, it is not easy to enter the finals.

But this will not affect the mood of the Manchester City players. Everyone is very satisfied to be able to advance to the semi-finals.

You know, many of the Manchester City players have participated in the Champions League for the first time.

I believe fans know how high this event is in the hearts of all professional players in the world.

The players are in a good mood, recovery training is also a good time, the coaching staff also relax the requirements appropriately, the training content is mainly recovery, and the intensity is not strong, so Carrington is full of players' laughter.

Until the end of training, Guardiola reminded the players to forget the game last night.

"When facing Sunderland the day after tomorrow, I hope you can completely forget this game, forget the Champions League for now, and go to the Bernabeu next week. We need to forget the first leg score and still go all out."

When Guardiola said this, his expression was extremely serious.

Obviously, he is worried that the team's mood is too inflated.

This is the most likely problem for all recruits, and Manchester City is a recruit in the Champions League.

Why are the knockouts cruel?

Because it is highly targeted.

Is it a lot to lead three goals?

Saying more is a lot, but saying less is very little.

At the beginning, AC Milan lost four goals away, and it can be reversed back to home. Isn't Real Madrid only three goals behind?

In the Bernabeu, Real Madrid scored three goals for Manchester City. Was it difficult to reverse the total score?

It's really not difficult at all.

If Manchester City do not have a deep awareness of this, blindly indulge in the lead in the first leg, and feel that the right to advancement is the winning ticket, then at the Bernabeu Stadium, they may be reversed by Real Madrid at any time and even be completely humiliated.

If nothing else, Real Madrid's offensive power, if it really goes smoothly, God knows how many goals they can score?

Guardiola's admonition comes from this, and he hopes that everyone can clean up and guard against arrogance and impetuosity.

…

After returning to the locker room, Su Dong also kept the players, and once again reiterated the coach's admonition.

High morale is good, but arrogance is not.

Manchester City is now winning consecutive games, and the momentum is very strong. The most important thing is to play steadily and play well in every game instead of thinking too much about the future.

For example, the semi-finals.

That was the hype of the media. For Manchester City, the promotion right has not yet secured a chance to win, and the Bernabeu battle is still very risky. A little carelessness may overturn the boat in the gutter, so Guardiola ordered anyone to ban discussion of the semi-finals.

"I have experienced many hard fights, many big wins, and even the biggest reversal in the history of the Champions League. I participated in it. So I understand the cruelty of the Champions League better than any of you."

"Maybe it's just an inadvertent thought, just a slight slack, or even just a trivial mistake, which may lead to the entire game, and even our entire season's efforts, all fall short."

Su Dong told his teammates that the more critical the game is, the more he must maintain a calm mind and control his emotions.

The most important thing in the Champions League knockouts is not how strong they are, but how stable they play.

"In fact, you can look at it. In the history of the Champions League, all the teams that won the championship have achieved very stable results in the knockout rounds. Even if it is the Barcelona I played for, although the game process has been ups and downs, the overall results are still relatively good. stable."

"If you want to talk about champion status, only teams with stable and high-level performance will have champion status!"

Today's Su Dong is fully qualified to talk about seniority and the past in front of his teammates.

In this Manchester City, no one has more experience in the Champions League than him.

Most importantly, Manchester City's players are also very convinced of him.

...

...

Over the weekend, in the 31st round of the Premier League, Manchester City played against Sunderland at home.

Guardiola has rotated the team, and the players have indeed been affected by the recent momentum. Some optimism, coupled with the exhaustion accumulated from multi-line combat, broke out in the last game of March. , Resulting in poor performance of the team.

The first goal was lost in the 31st minute of the first half. Fortunately, before the end of the first half, Dzeko broke into the penalty area and created a penalty. Aguero calmly took the penalty and equalized the score for Manchester City.

After that, neither side was able to score again.

Manchester City controlled the situation on the field and launched a fierce attack on Sunderland, but it was never effective. UU看书www.uukanshu.com broke through the goal of the Black Cat, and Sunderland failed to exert strong pressure on Manchester City. Effective counterattack.

Until the 75th minute, Guardiola used the last substitution place and replaced Milner with Su Dong.

Three forwards were present at the same time, which put a lot of pressure on Sunderland.

In the eighty-fifth minute, it was Su Dong who received a diagonal pass from Leighton Bynes and entered the penalty area from the left rib. After passing the defensive player, his right foot volleyed the goal from the far corner to reverse the score for Manchester City. .

Just two minutes later, Aguero received a pass from Sudong, broke through the periphery of the penalty area, created a foul by the opponent, and won a free kick for Manchester City.

Su Dong did his part and took the penalty personally. With a weird deciduous kick, he pierced the goal guarded by Mignolet and made another victory for Manchester City, three to one!

This score was also maintained to the end of the game.

Manchester City finally relied on Su Dong's score from the bench to reverse Sunderland three to one.
