Chapter 148: Shame
"Yo, Mauro!" When Gao Zheng saw Icardi in the first-team dressing room, he greeted him with surprise and delight. "I'm so glad to see you here!"
However, Icardi's response was very cold, and he didn't even look at the enthusiastic Gao Zheng, let alone respond.
Captain Palombo said next to him: "Mauro trained with us during the pre-season training camp, everyone is familiar with it, I don't think we need to introduce it anymore!" ”
By the time he said that, Icardi had already stepped into his place and started putting things down.
However, Pelle seemed to be unhappy with Icardi's cold attitude towards Gao Zheng, and he walked straight up, looked down at the other party condescendingly, and asked in a contemptuous tone that anyone could hear: "You also play as a striker?" ”
When everyone in the locker room heard this, their ears pricked up - since Pelle first arrived in Sampdoria, they had only heard this word once, and it was used on Gao Zheng, and they really didn't expect that there would be a chance to hear it again......
If that's enough for everyone to think of, then what will be even more unexpected is yet to come...... I saw Mauro Icardi meet Pelle's gaze without flinching: "What, you want to see and learn?" ”
There was a commotion in the locker room - what is this!
When Icardi came to the first team training camp in the summer, everyone had been in contact with each other for almost two months, and they all knew that he was a somewhat shy and relatively taciturn person, maybe only a little more open when facing Gao Zheng, but it was no different from a dumb person to others......
I didn't expect such a shy person to dare to choke Pelle back in person!
Even Pelle didn't expect the other party to say this, he was stunned for a moment, looked left and right, and saw the complicated eyes of his teammates. This made him feel a little shameless, so he posted it viciously: "Aha! I can't wait! Let's see if you can take my starting spot! ”
Someone saw the excitement and touched another center, Bertani, and Bertani hurriedly waved his hand, which seemed to mean "When the second is a second, don't pull me in"......
Palombo didn't expect Pelle and Icardi to be so incompatible, as far as he knew, the two had no contact at all, and they didn't even know each other.
He set his eyes on Gao Zheng for help - the only thing he was sure of was that whether it was Pelle or Icardi, he had a good relationship with Gao Zheng......
Gao Zheng only recovered from the sudden conflict at this time. He really didn't expect Pelle to stand out for himself and completely catch himself off guard.
Seeing that the two of them were about to top the bull, Gao Zheng hurriedly rushed up and separated them between them: "Eh, misunderstanding, misunderstanding......" He turned his head to Pelle and said, "Mauro and I have known each other since we were in the reserves, and we are friends......
But Icardi didn't appreciate it: "You're my opponent!" ”
Pelle immediately shouted: "Hey, what kind of attitude do you have!" ”
"What does my attitude have to do with you?" Icardi showed no signs of weakness.
"Why doesn't it matter? Gao is the person I admire the most in the team, and if you don't respect him, you will disrespect me! ”
"Idiot ......"
"Bastard, who are you talking about!"
The two stood apart from Gao Zheng.
No matter how Gao Zheng persuaded him, it was useless, and the other teammates also came up to persuade him when they saw that the matter was going to make a big fuss, but this could not stop the hostile behavior of the two people.
In the end, Gao Zheng couldn't bear it anymore and yelled: "I don't care!" What do you like? ”
After yelling, he returned to his position and really didn't care about the two of them anymore.
His move caused silence in the dressing room, and the sound of arguing and fighting died down.
Everyone was a little confused - this was the first time they had seen Gao Zheng angry, and the Chinese had the impression that there was always a smile on his face, and all kinds of smiles seemed to be his signature label. Even in the face of Atezori's unfair treatment, he had a smile on his face, nothing more than a smile of sarcasm or disdain......
I didn't expect him to lose his temper so bluntly.
After Gao Zheng walked back, Pelle and Icardi, who were originally inseparable, faced each other and looked at each other.
But instead of arguing, they snorted at each other and went their separate ways—Icardi continued to pack his things, while Pelle turned and walked back to his seat.
The others were dumbfounded—they didn't expect the originally noisy scene to end like this......
Captain Palombo looked at Gao Zheng, then at Icardi and Pelle, they were all busy with their own things, as if nothing had happened before.
As the captain, he couldn't figure out the young people now.

"Icardi from the reserve team is working hard in training." During a break in training, assistant coach Carrillo spoke to head coach Yacini about his observations in practice.
'I noticed that Pelle was also very positive in training today. Achini voiced his observations.
Then the two looked at each other and smiled.
'Whether Icardi plays or not, he's already made a difference on his first day in the first team.
In the speculation of Yacini and Carrillo, Icardi and Pelle are both forwards and are in similar positions, and there will certainly be competition.
Despite the fact that Pelle is now the main striker, Icardi has also performed very well in the development team, and the Argentine talent may not be so easy to be underdog. So on the first day of training with the first team, you will definitely try to prove his quality in front of the coach.
And Pelle naturally felt the threat shown by Icardi, which is why he worked so hard in training......
Well, it must be so.
The two coaches were convinced of their own judgment.
※※※
Palombo thinks that the conflict between Icardi and Pelle can become an instability within the team, and any instability at the most critical moment in the team's quest for promotion could lead to a season of hard work.
As the captain, it is necessary for him to nip this risk in the bud.
Although Gao Zheng lost his temper in the locker room, he felt that it was probably up to Gao Zheng to solve this matter.
So he planned to have a good talk with Gao Zheng again, let him suppress his anger, and persuade those two people with the overall situation as the priority.
But just as he was about to do so, he saw that during lunch, Gao Zheng brought Pelle and Icardi to a table......
"I never felt like my friend A and my friend B could be friends, everyone was independent and had different thoughts and feelings. No matter what you do off the court, I don't care. But I hope it doesn't affect the performance on the field. Now there are five league games left until the end of the regular season, whether we can make it to the promotion play-offs or not depends on the last five games, and I don't want to stay in the second division after a season of hard work. “
Gao Zheng said very seriously.
Neither Pelle nor Icardi were silent.
"Alright, let's eat!" Gao Zheng clapped his hands and began to eat.
Pelle and Icardi, who were sitting next to him, looked at each other, and then, as if they were competing in training, they began to eat with their heads down almost simultaneously, as if they had lost to each other if they were behind.
Seeing this scene next to him, Palombo felt that he didn't need to look for Gao Zheng anymore......
