Red Rebels

Walcott dragged his heavy body out of the laboratory, tiredness written on his forehead clearly for everyone to see.

But what's more serious than tiredness is that he seems to lack fighting spirit!

He has never been a child who likes to fight. He goes to school in a disciplined manner, studies seriously, and trains meticulously. He is perfect in almost everything. Even in the youth training camp, he has always been the top one. one type.

He is smart, diligent, and talented at the same time. He has been immersed in the tactical system since he was a child, which makes him understand and be familiar with the tactical characteristics better than anyone else. This allows him to integrate into the first team better than anyone else.

So he had a career start that no one of his age could dream of, a much-anticipated game, a blockbuster debut, followed by astonishing sponsorships, dizzying honors, and now even Some people think that he should be selected for the England national team.

Oh my god, not long ago he was just an ordinary apprentice in the youth training camp. This change must have come too fast, right? It was so fast that even he himself could hardly adapt.

After becoming famous and having fans, Walcott gradually realized that he could not let them down, whether it was the club, the head coach, the fans, or even the experts who were optimistic about him!

So he began to want to perform better, and he began to be afraid of making mistakes, so when he could choose to break through and score by himself, he would make a move that even he himself felt timid at that moment. .

Mr. Mourinho sent him back to the reserve team and youth team. Many teammates who used to look at him with envy laughed at him behind his back, which made him feel very uncomfortable. He was eager to prove himself, but the result was It's that his performance is getting worse and worse, even in the reserve team and youth team.

"Take your time, you are in trouble, little tiger, be brave to face it and solve it!" Mullenstine always comforted him in a kind tone, but the more Mullenstine became like this, Walcott The more uncomfortable I feel.

Being famous as a teenager is a good thing, but in many cases, the pressure brought by becoming famous as a teenager is enough to crush a person.

Walking into the locker room, Walcott, who originally thought he would be the last to leave, found that Curtis, Kaká, Messi and Cech were all there, which surprised him and made him a little scared.

The people standing in front of him are all the club's leading stars. They are famous and famous all over the world, but Walcott is just a fledgling boy. In front of them, he is nothing.

"What's the matter, Theo, don't you like seeing us?" Kaka walked over with a smile.

Curtis immediately put his arm on his shoulder and pointed at Messi, "Or maybe you don't like seeing this guy?"

Everyone immediately laughed, while Walcott quickly shook his head and said no.

"Don't be nervous, Theo, we are joking. We are teammates. We shower and change clothes in the same locker room. We are equal. Relax, we are friends!" Kaka smiled and patted Walcott on the shoulder.

"Yeah, I heard that many new young players in English clubs now have to clean the shoes of old players. This is the tradition of English clubs, but we don't do it, because in our club, we pay attention to equality, you Equal to us!" Cech said in his slightly jerky English.

"Look, Ricardo, Peter talks like a philosopher!" Curtis teased.

Everyone burst into laughter, and even Walcott couldn't help but laugh, which greatly diluted the unfamiliarity between them.

"What's going on later?" Cech asked.

Walcott shook his head, wondering what this big brother was going to do.

"Don't you have a girlfriend?" Curtis stabbed out and asked suddenly.

Walcott shook his head. The focus of his life is football and studies. He has never had a girlfriend. However, a friend did say that he would introduce a very beautiful girl to him. However, he has been in a low mood recently.

I'm not even in the mood to pick up girls anymore.

"Oh my god, you really should hit the wall! I started to know how to pick up girls when I was 15 years old. Miss me..." Curtis looked very exaggerated and recounted his prestigious history in front of everyone, but I'm afraid he won't Someone has gone to find out how much of this is true and how much is false.

"Stop bragging. When you signed a professional contract with the club, you already had three girlfriends? Who believes it?" Kaka shook his head in disbelief and questioned. He felt that Curtis was getting better and better at bragging now.

"Hmph, someone who is still a virgin is not qualified to judge me, right, Peter!" Curtis retorted.

Kaka was speechless. He and his girlfriend still maintain a pure relationship. He once said in an interview with the media that he would keep his virginity until the day of marriage, and so would his girlfriend.

Everyone burst into laughter again.

Walcott was quickly pushed by this group of big brothers to take a shower and change into dry clothes. The group of people all piled into Cech's Audi off-road vehicle and slowly left the training base.

…………… Arriving at the highest level of the stadium, looking down from one of the corners, the entire stadium was unobstructed.

The green lawn, the red seats and the green-gold channel stands are quiet, and the staff are taking care of the turf.

It has been voted Europe's top golf course and lawn for two consecutive years and has always paid great attention to such details.

Cech seemed to be caressing his own child, gently caressing every seat in front of him, walking down the stairs, slowly, his slender fingers swept over every seat until he When I arrived in front of the fence of the stands on this level, I turned around, leaned my back against the fence, and couldn't help but laugh.

"I still remember that when Mr. Xiao Yu told me that such a new stadium was going to be built, I was not much older than you at that time. I was very surprised. I even thought at the time, if one day, the club really builds Given a stadium like this, would I still have the chance to play there?"

Curtis, Kaká, Messi and Walcott all came to him and browsed this quiet stadium, but the excitement and excitement in their hearts was difficult to describe in words.

For players who come out of the youth training camp, this is their football palace!

Playing a game here is simply their biggest dream in this life!

"Mr. Xiao Yu told me at that time that he was also under tremendous pressure on his shoulders, just like me at that time, but he did not lack confidence like me. On the contrary, he always believed that everything would get better, so he slowly Waiting for the opportunity, and then grabbing it, we have our stadium and our subsequent glory!”

Xiao Yu would never have thought that Cech would tell those things that happened back then. He just wanted Cech to use his personal experience to help Walcott. Who knew that Cech would use his personal experience to help Walcott? Methods.

"I lacked self-confidence at that time. I doubted myself. I joined the team with the title of talented goalkeeper, but I didn't get the opportunity to play for a long time. Do you know what it was like when I participated in the team training for the first time? ?" Cech asked Walcott funny.

The latter shook his head.

"I was kicked out of the stadium by Mr. Mourinho!"

"What?" Walcott was very surprised and looked at Curtis, Kaka and others.

Curtis and Messi, who were informed, nodded in affirmation.

"Peter had never been trained by a professional goalkeeper at that time. He didn't even know that his ankles needed to be bandaged. As a result, he was scolded severely by the old guy and kicked off the court." Curtis smiled. said.

Walcott looked shocked. He would never have thought that the super goalkeeper standing in front of him now, known as one of the best in football today, would have such a bad past, but seeing him When he talked about this matter, he had a smile on his face and was not troubled by it at all.

"I have to thank Mr. Mourinho. He made me understand in the first training session that only those who pay attention to details can succeed. But I didn't understand it at the time, and then I lacked playing opportunities for a long time. I My confidence began to waver, but Mr. Xiao Yu appeared."

"He didn't say a lot of good things, nor did he say anything to encourage or acknowledge me. He just told me that if I want to succeed, I must be able to endure loneliness, be able to withstand pressure, and regain confidence in myself. , be ready anytime and anywhere, waiting for the opportunity, and once the opportunity comes, seize it in one fell swoop!”

Having said this, Cech couldn't help but laugh again. Recalling his experience when he first joined the team, Cech felt that without that experience, there would be no Peter Cech today, especially Xiao Yu. A reminder to him back then.

“I am currently reading a book by the famous Czech novelist Milan Kundera. There is this passage in [The Unbearable Lightness of Being]: If eternal return is the heaviest burden, then our lives can be lived in all their splendor. , to compete with it. But is it really tragic if it is heavy, and really brilliant if it is light?"

“The heaviest burden weighs us down, sinks us, and pins us to the ground. … Perhaps the heaviest burden is also a symbol of the most fulfilling life. The heavier the burden, the closer our lives are to the earth, and the closer we are to the earth. Approaching truth and reality. On the contrary, there is no burden at all. People become lighter than the atmosphere and fly high. Farewell to the earth is also farewell to real life."

Walcott was stunned. He soon realized the profound meaning of Cech's words. He also understood why these teammates were still in the locker room at this time. They were not idle and bored. Qian didn't want to pull him out to chat on a whim, but wanted to help him get through the current predicament.

This made him feel moved from the bottom of his heart, moved by his teammates, and felt that he could play in such a club.

"My situation is similar to yours, Peter. In the early stages of the 2002 World Cup, I only had 18 minutes of experience in the group stage with the Brazilian national team. At that time, I felt that I was a dispensable passerby. I had no confidence in my own ability. A certain amount of doubt arose, and I even wanted to give up on myself.”

Kaka recalled his first World Cup trip. He felt that it was like a dream, with ups and downs, completely unexpected. At the same time, it was also the World Cup where he truly became famous, and he will always remember it.

"But at this time, Mr. Xiao Yu told me that I must have confidence in my own strength. He said that if I was not strong enough, Scolari would not take me to Asia and would not give me anything. Opportunities, and the fact that I was selected for the Brazilian national team is a recognition of my strength. What I have to do is keep my confidence and wait for the opportunity!"

"The next thing everyone knew, Ronaldinho got a red card against England and was suspended, and I knocked on the door of Scolari's hotel room the day before the semi-final and I analyzed it with him. I have my own thoughts and told him that I am ready and confident enough to be competent in any task he assigns to me."

"Originally I thought I had no chance, but who knew, I would start the next day, so I desperately seized the opportunity and tried my best to express myself. Even when I failed to prove my strength, I had enough confidence in myself. Confidence, because I believe that only when I am confident can I show my best condition and strength!"

Walcott had heard about Kaká. Even though he was still young at the time, it had already spread a lot. As a fan, it was impossible for him not to know about it, but he didn’t know that there was such a psychological process behind it. .

The two parties involved analyzed their past in front of themselves. Although compared with their current status as the world's top players, their past experiences are too unbelievable, but their success itself is the best persuasion. [^[half(.*)／[福*(生)~] w.n福s Update soon

"Theo, no one is perfect from the beginning. Everyone grows through bumps and bumps, so this is the training tradition of our first team."

"Whoever gets scolded the most by the old guy, whoever gets the worst punishment will be promoted!" Messi took over Curtis' words and said with a smile. This is also known as Mourinho's training of players. A unique feature.

But it’s no wonder that almost every one of Curtis, Terry, Drogba, Evra, Essien and others came through Mourinho’s scolding and punishment. Now every one of them is a European A well-known and powerful warrior.

Although it is uncomfortable to be punished, if you regard punishment as an incentive and help, your mood will be different.

"Since the old guy promoted you to the first team, it proves that you have enough strength to gain a foothold in the first team. Since the old guy chooses to let you start, it proves that you have enough strength to take on this important task. The only thing you need to do is to do your best. Give full play to your own strength and level without any other worries."

Kaka also took over what Curtis said, patted Walcott heavily on the shoulder, and encouraged: "We all think you can do it. You should work hard. After all, you are also a top student in our youth training camp. Why?" We can’t lose to a poor student like Cristiano, otherwise our youth training camp will be a failure!”

Kaka also made a rare joke about Ronaldinho, but the Portuguese was not present. Otherwise, if he knew that the scars of his poor academic performance were exposed again and laughed at, he would probably go crazy!
