152 chapter 152
"What do you want to say?" When Casillas pushed open the locker room door and smashed the newspaper in front of Fran who had a complete record of the previous day's interview, Fran knew he was still coming. If you like it, you can get it
Casillas's tone was impulsive, and Fran's reaction was calm, which made several people in the locker room wonder if they should come forward and persuade them. Fran lowered her head to tie her shoelaces, and pedaled them for fit before she looked up and said to Casillas, "You're going to be ruined by that girlfriend of yours one day." β
Fran felt that everything he said was not wrong, and Sara Caponero was undoubtedly ruining Casillas's image on the outside, he used to be the team's San Cassi, and now? To add credibility, he repeated, "You're going to be ruined by that girlfriend of yours one day." β
He actually knew when he said that during the interview, he knew that there was going to be a quarrel with Igor, because in anyone's eyes, Sara was Casillas's image on the outside. Forlan was mentally tired at the time, and it seemed that all he needed to do was maintain the apparent peace of Real Madrid as if nothing had happened, and his words were not good, but Forlan did not regret it afterwards.
"Can we settle this issue privately after we disband?" Fran asked Casillas, who looked at him for a while, "You are not a friend of Casillas, so we can only solve it with the relationship between captain and vice-captain." β
Hearing this, Fran glanced at the locker room and motioned for them to retreat quickly, which was not a good show to watch. He pulled Ramos by the way, "Take a leave of absence for the two of us and the coach, and come later." "Regardless of whether it is approved or not, it is impossible for the two of them to train with the team normally today.
A few people came out of the locker room, and Ramos grabbed the doorknob to find that it had been locked from the inside by Fran. He glanced at Alonso, still uneasy, and asked, "Nothing will happen, will it?" "Depending on how you define 'accident', it won't be a fight." Alonso said this, but he still remembered with concern every word and tone of voice that the two men had just said.
"Actually, Fran's words are a little excessive," Marcelo carefully worded, "but Igor wouldn't be so angry?" Kaka patted Marcelo on the back of the head and didn't say much, but the meaning was obvious, don't think about it if you don't understand it.
"Actually, you don't have to be able to quarrel. Varane, who just left the locker room late to catch such a wave, felt that today was not going well, and he was a little uncertain about his speech, "Fran should be, can't make a noise?"
Ronaldo didn't speak, but he could already find that everyone seemed to have acquiesced to Igor's suppressed anger, which was all ignited by Fran's fuse yesterday. But Igor's anger is not only this season, but also against this club?
In the dressing room, Casillas was still curbing his anger, and now it has completely exploded, "I used to be the patron saint of Real Madrid, and now I am called a cancer of the team by the Portuguese. Do you think supporting Jose Mourinho will guarantee the stability of the club?"
"I don't think Sara Caponero is the same as you. Forlan knew that Casillas was angry, he was targeted too much and treated unfairly, and he didn't mind Casillas arguing with him, but he also needed to clarify his opinion, "Maybe you think she's speaking up for you, but I don't think it's good for you for her to be so blindly hostile to Mourinho." At a time when we are knocked out of the Copa del Rey, the league title is hopeless, and Champions League qualification is in jeopardy. β
"Why do they think you're stupid? You're obviously very good at talking, and pretty words come out of your mouth. Casillas shook his head with a mocking smile on the corner of his mouth when he saw that he suddenly threw so many reasons, and every time he always knew the current situation, "Everyone thinks that you are not easy, the media, the fans, everyone in the locker room, Jose asked me to clarify you, Raul called me to take care of you, Baldano told me that you were not a threat when he left, and even I thought Sergio just now that I finally couldn't help it, and you became the unlucky ghost who hit the gun." Everyone thinks you're not easy. He tilted his head as if he was really puzzled, and asked, "But where is it that you are not easy, and what have you done besides muddy the waters?"
Asked by Casillas, Fran himself was not sure if this was the case. Was he right? Fran didn't know, but he knew why he was doing it, "Igor, you want so much." But this sentence obviously made Casillas even more angry, "Please, Fran, I want too much? Why do they think you want less than the 'only' Real Madrid? Why do they all think that you want less, why is it easy for you to live with Real Madrid? You are always afraid of losing everything, and you want everything to have a perfect ending." β
In fact, Forlan also wants a lot, for now, whether he can really end up with Real Madrid is actually not very important to him, but everyone thinks that is his only dream. In fact, Casillas is right, and Fran himself knows that maybe he lost too much when he was young, and now he is always reluctant to lose what he has gained. The love of his teammates, the love of the fans, the love of the club, and the glory of the championship, he always thought that he didn't care at the beginning, but after getting it, he was reluctant to leave his palm.
"Everyone thinks that your thoughts and decisions are just for Real Madrid, everyone thinks about you not to be calculated by me and Mourinho, and everyone thinks that you are wronged. "The 'grievance' that Casillas spoke of was a little harsh to Fran's ears, and he couldn't say it well, if he could have joked 'because you're too shrewd, and smart people tend to prefer fools.'" But he couldn't say this at this moment, because both of them understood that Fran was not as stupid as he appeared, and it should be said that he was much more shrewd, "But Fran, when we are all on the same boat, and when we have all taken on so many responsibilities and received a lot of unfair accusations and treatment, why are you the only one who has been wronged-just because I want the position of captain?"
Fran felt a chill in his heart inexplicably, and the panicked coldness gradually seeped into his heart from the small hole pierced by a thin needle, faintly stinging and cold into his bones, he swallowed silently, and clenched his hands a little unnaturally. How long did Igor Casillas hide these words, or rather, how many years? But if he didn't know anything about it, I'm afraid Igor wouldn't believe it, right?
"It's always like this, what you say and do outside is your true temperament, a reflection of your character. As long as it's about Real Madrid, you don't care about me at the club or with the national team, you don't care because it's good for Real Madrid. Cassie's words were extremely fast, and sentences penetrated Forlan's ears, "There are a lot of controversies outside because I am the captain, everyone knows that Mourinho is biased towards you, I look forward to you when you declare a word of support for me, what are you doing? Lopes replaced me as the goalkeeper of the team, they are all speculating that I will lose my position, Arbeloa's guy openly supports Lopez, I look forward to you expressing your support for me, what are you doing? When even Alonso knows where you shoot, do you know what I'm thinking?"
He looked at Casillas, the Spaniard was at his best against a strong enemy, calm as water, free from interference, and able to safely erase all opportunities for his opponent. He was confronting himself with a fighting state, and when he realized this, Forlan shook his head in a daze, and Casillas chuckled, "But I know what you're thinking, you're thinking that Igor Casillas is already a person you trust and doesn't need your help, and these developments have no impact on Real Madrid, so you don't care." First of all, thank you for your trust, I know that this trust has not come easily. β
"It's not easy" was read by him very seriously, full of mockery, "but now it's different, in your opinion, I should be on the opposite side of Real Madrid, right?"
Casillas noticed that Fran had maintained a calm tone from the moment he entered the locker room, and he seemed to be well aware of everything, of what the TV words would be, of what he would do, of the conflict he would come to him, but he still said and did that.
Why did he do that? Casillas certainly understood, because Forlan thought he was doing things for the good of the club, and for him maybe everything was enough for the club, "When I'm on the opposite side of Real Madrid, you're going to be merciless against me, right?"
β... You say this as if I betrayed you by yesterday's actions. "Forlan heard Casillas' question, no, maybe Casillas was just saying, 'You will be merciless for Real Madrid' and there is no doubt about it. He finally couldn't help but interject, and with a slight flick of his fingers, Casillas noticed. Cassie was reluctant to discuss with him whether it was against Cassie or not, because Francisco Alvarez had always had one of the biggest pain points, as he thought.
Thinking of this, Casillas suddenly seemed to be less angry, because he had always won this argument, "You have a good relationship with Ramos, Ozil, Alonso, Ronaldo, Arbeloa and others, and the way you get along with everyone is different from person to person, but it is difficult for others to tell which of these people you are closer to," Casillas knows him better, he is very good to everyone, equally good. He will not hesitate to lend a hand to help someone in trouble, but if he is in trouble himself, he will never ask these people for help. "You seem to be very easy to get along with, but in fact, there are not many people who can really be put into your heart. You're really heartless. β
He is really a heartless person, from the bottom of his heart upwards, a little cold, gentle is like watching a fire on the other side, and understanding will only aggravate discouragement. Cassie thought that he was not as smart, spiritual and understanding as he was, and the only thing that led to him being truly better than himself in the end was probably that he had enough patience. He was able to watch the candles go out one by one with the peace of mind and promise not to cause a fire, which Casillas couldn't. So Casillas tried to rebel, and Francisco Γlvarez always chose to obey.
Isn't that what it is? Helping them, being friendly with them, is because they are teammates at Real Madrid, and they become friends. When they leave this club, he will not have too much sadness except for a few people, because there will be more people who will continue to follow this club.
Casillas actually knew it all along, but he also knew the importance of twenty years of friendship, and knew that he was the 'individual', so in fact, the rest of the people had nothing to do with him. Fran is insecure, never has been, he feels that there is nothing to lose that does not belong to him, he is a complete pessimist, "You still want to create some security for others out of thin air when you don't have any security yourself." This feeling is too strong. Apparently Fran," Casillas whispered, "I have seen so much about you, and I do not trust the friendship you have given me, though it has lasted twenty years. And how many twenty years does a person have?
"Believe it or not, it's still there. Fran finally couldn't sit still, he stood up and made eye level with Casillas, his eyes clearly revealing a sentence, 'What have you seen about me?' "I've told you everything, if you say that in the world of accidents if I knew of course I would-"
"Of course I do!" Casillas roared and choked the rest of Forlan's words, "Of course I do! Of course I do! I entered the first team in 1999, I waited so many years to be substituted, survived a series of tragic scores that almost shattered my self-confidence and self-esteem, and accompanied the first team for the fourteenth year now. What did I get in exchange? ambition, disloyalty, slump, cancer? All of them said that your whole heart is for this club, I am a cancer, you are loyal. Do you dare to ask yourself, right now, whether you love this club because you love it, or because you feel that you have nothing but this club, so you hold on to it. β
"Why do they think I love this club so much less than you do, just because you talk about it every day and speak for it without any scruples?"
"Don't dare. Fran replied calmly, with no sadness or joy in his eyes, but in fact, he began to be in a daze again. He remembered the afternoon when Bosque refused to promote himself to the first team, he himself squatted under a tree and poked at ants all afternoon, and Casillas stayed by his side to watch the blue sky and white clouds all afternoon. Twenty years, he thought, probably those words of Fang Cai offset the accompaniment of that afternoon, and he could still be the little chubby dun who was full of tears because of training saves but would be satisfied with a toffee, or the two good brothers who fell to the end and hugged for every victory.
Casillas was choked up by Fran's answer, thinking that he would have something to say. Although Fran is usually broken-mouthed and occasionally likes to be tough with others, he knows that sometimes keeping his mouth shut can save a lot of trouble, in fact, he actually knows the truth of restraint very well. He hardly has a head-on conflict with his acquaintances, and the other party is mean, and he tries to maintain the bottom line, which is not upbringing, but just self-preservation.
He always retains distrust of the crowd, silence always makes things develop in his hope, anyway, he feels that 'his face is big and not afraid of scolding', it is difficult to really immerse himself in a certain feeling or emotion, even when he is the most happy or the saddest, there is also a part of himself peeled off to look down on himself, be careful, don't get too carried away.
This is not a people-pleasing personality.
Purely for self-preservation.
Seeing that Cassie didn't seem to react, Fran opened his mouth and repeated, still answering his question, 'Do you dare to ask yourself,' "Don't dare," he looked at Cassie with a frown, "because I- I have a guilty conscience." β
The thoughts and struggles that he had suppressed in the depths of his soul that he himself had to get by and never delved into were picked out in the air by Casillas's words. Yes, he has a guilty conscience, he has always known that his love for Real Madrid has long been impure, and since this is the case, he will not think about it.
"I always thought it was a compliment for them to call you an iron man, but I suddenly felt like a fact. Do you know what I'm trying to say?" Casillas didn't find his statement amusing, and thought it weird, "They say you're an iron man, but the iron man has no heart. β
Fran had heard this phrase from Zidane once, and that time Zidane just jokingly relayed this assessment, but this time it was different. Hearing these words come out of Casillas's mouth, it was still different after all, Fran thought to himself, he felt the weight of his heart weigh down and couldn't breathe, he took a deep breath and tried to control it, and at last there was only a heavy gasp.
Thinking about this man was born without a heart, he was kind, upright, brave, loyal, you can use all the beautiful adjectives you can think of to describe him, but he just doesn't have that heart.
But this sentence came out of Casillas's mouth after all, it was still different.
There was a long silence in the locker room, and the moisture in the air seemed to condense into ice, freezing the Adam's apple of the two men so that they could not speak, and the torsos of the two men making them unable to move, only to suffer from the oppressive feeling of suffocation. It took a long time to barely regain his voice, and he looked at the angry Casillas and still softened, "Forget it, I admit that I was wrong, I was wrong." β
In fact, why bother, he already understood.
Do you still think you're really all for Real Madrid? Forlan thought to himself, how is that possible, I don't believe it for a long time, like you said, the tin man has no heart. I knew I wouldn't have anything without Real Madrid, so I clung to it.
He has the courage that a lion lacks, the scarecrow's longing mind, and even the hometown that the little girl wants to return to is beside him.
Probably "The Wizard of Oz" is just missing a heart to him.
"I'm going to say it anyway," Fran lowered his head and shook the corners of his mouth slightly, and when he finally looked up, he adjusted himself to the expression that he was best at, which was not the attitude he should have with Casillas, but who would care at this time, "I am not saying something to you, you want people to admire your achievements, and there will be a time when you will have to tolerate people's criticism of you." If criticism is not free, praise is meaningless, and there is no reason to just listen to praise. β
"They're just used to the best, but there's always only one best in the world. Casillas's voice gradually lowered, he had actually consciously said something too poking at Fran, and he regretted it a little, but he didn't know if Fran did it on purpose, and when he looked at his smile, Cassie swallowed back the apology that he had put on his lips.
Fran snorted, it wasn't a laugh if it wasn't cleared. He finally straightened his clothes, picked up the kettle, and prepared to leave the locker room. As soon as he grasped the doorknob of the locker room, he heard Casillas behind him say quietly, "One day, you will no longer be the best." β
After twisting the handle a few times and not opening the door, Fran suddenly remembered that he had locked the door earlier. Hearing Cassie's words, he didn't refute it, but finally spat out the most vicious sentence against Casillas today.
"Your fights, in the end, are all losers. β
In the 1213 season, Real Madrid ended up empty. Jose Mourinho then returned to Chelsea, and Igor has been heavily infamous ever since.
As for me, I just want to say, young people, never ridicule your ideals in front of others. Believe it or not, you must have paid a lot more for it than you imagined. - "Francisco: I'm Just a Defender"
The author has something to say: I knew it...... Can't tear it up at all...
Franlan doesn't quarrel at all...
In fact, it is not easy for both of them, and Cassie is much more difficult than Fran.
The two of them scolded each other on the spot
