Chapter 052: Keeping up with Ronaldo

Montpellier Head Coach's Office.

"Boss, what are you looking for me?"

Wen Jie, who ran up to the second floor from the training ground, gasped for breath, and the sweat on his head was enough to show that he had practiced hard and hard.

In the last five league games, although Wenjie has been given the opportunity to play in every game, he has only started two games, and the other three have been substitutes, playing a total of only 198 minutes.

Girard's choice of a player on the pitch is based on his recent form, and if he is not in good form in training, he will not get the chance to start.

Wen Jie's recent playing time is enough to show that his recent form is not good.

Fitness, tactical literacy, running ...... Wenjie still has a lot to offer.

In particular, his physical reserves, in the high-intensity fierce confrontation, the shortcomings of the young players' lack of physical reserves were exposed.

The opponents in the league are more and more experienced in Wenjie's defense, as long as they defend through assistance in the first 60 minutes, there is basically no need to mark Wenjie in the rest of the game, this kid's physical fitness is a problem.

As the league progressed, Wenjie discovered the problem.

Although he has the Daishonin system, in the sleepspace training ground, it is his ball skills that improve.

Wenjie has always believed that for young players, the most important thing should be to improve their skills.

But he is more and more aware that he is now walking on one leg, only focusing on the improvement of ball skills, not the improvement of physical fitness, how can he go far on the road of football when he walks lame?

"Xiaojie, sit down. I know you've been at a bottleneck in your career lately, I've been here and I've coached a lot of young players, and I think when I was in charge of the French youth team, Zinedine Zidane and Thierry Henry had the same problem at your age. ”

"Boss, I haven't heard you say it, you also coached Zidane and Henry, it's amazing!"

The stories of these stars, in the echelon of Paris Saint-Germain in the past, Wen Jie's ears are almost grinding out of cocoons, and the young players regard them as their idols.

Their own coach even coached them! In this way, I can be regarded as being out of the same door as these star divisions.

"That's a long time ago, if you want to hear it, feel free to come to me, I'll tell you, when they were young, they were naughty tricksters, but they didn't get me into trouble."

When he looks back, Girard feels as if it was yesterday, and the past is vivid.

"Hey, the years are not forgiving, think about it, Zidane has been retired for two years, fortunately, Henry is still playing in Barcelona, but he is also 32 years old this year. In my memory, they were still a group of bare-bottomed children, but I didn't expect them to be so old......"

Girard said thoughtfully.

Suddenly, he turned to Wen Jie and said, "It's far away." As soon as people get older, they tend to recall the past. It looks like I'm really old. ”

"Boss, you're not old, if you're old, why do you still kneel and celebrate every time we score? So, you're still young, boss. ”

Wenjie's quote is that Girard laughs heartily. "Haha, Xiaojie, your mouth, you smeared honey today."

After a few seconds, Girard said very seriously:

"Xiaojie, do you know why I asked you to come off the bench in the last few league games?"

After seeing Wenjie shake his head, Girard continued:

"You're only 17 years old, you're very young, you're very good compared to the rest of the players in our team, but you're not very consistent. Of course, this is what happens to every young player, and it was also the case with Zinedine Zidane and Thierry Henry when they were younger. However, you still have one more shortcoming. ”

"What are the shortcomings?"

"You don't have a lot of physical fitness, and that's a big reason why you're not in good shape. If you want to become a football star, you must not only have a football skill number, but also have good physical fitness, but also a strong psychological quality! ”

"Boss, what should I do?" A sentence hit his heart, and Wen Jie was very excited.

He wants to play in Europe's top five leagues, and he wants to be a star, to be the world footballer.

Seeing the burning passion in Wen Jie's eyes, Girard was very pleased.

If a potential rising star wants to become stronger from the bottom of his heart, he will become stronger and more powerful!

Instead of speaking, Girard turned on the TV.

"I've got a player's game highlights here, so you can take a look at it first."

The moment the TV screen was turned on, Wen Jie recognized the player in the picture at a glance.

"It turned out to be Cristiano Ronaldo!!"

Ronaldo in the picture can be called the big winner in 2008, he won the Premier League Golden Boot with 31 goals, also won the best player in the Premier League, and also won the European Golden Ball Award, the European Golden Boot Award, and won the honor of World Footballer, this year, Ronaldo is only 23 years old!

Cristiano Ronaldo is the idol that all young players are chasing, and Wenjie is no exception.

After watching the 5-minute video highlights, Girard said:

"Do you know why I let you watch Cristiano Ronaldo's video highlights?"

Wen Jie shook his head.

"Cristiano Ronaldo in the video is not only technically excellent, but also has great physical fitness, you can see just by looking at the lines of his muscles. But, you know what? When the 18-year-old Ronaldo transferred to Manchester United, although his skills were excellent, his body was very thin, and the Premier League is a very physical competition, and his weak physical fitness could not adapt to the Premier League at all.

So he approached his head coach, Sir Alex Ferguson, who arranged a lot of physical training for him. After 3 years of perseverance, he not only adapted to the Premier League, but also became the world footballer of the year!

Xiaojie, the football talent you showed on the pitch is not lower than Ronaldo's at all! All you lack now is a guide. I hope you can follow Cristiano Ronaldo's example and follow his example! With a goal, you'll be more aware of your shortcomings.

I asked our coaching staff to make a CD about Ronaldo's growth training for you, and there are many scientific methods about physical fitness training, which you use when you practice yourself. During normal training, I will also ask the coaching staff to arrange some training for you individually. ”

With that, Girard handed a disc to Wen Jie's hand.

Wenjie was very touched that his status as a loan player and Girard was not obligated to help him in this way.

"Boss, I'm ...... I'm going to train hard and work hard! ”

At this time, it seems redundant to say anything grateful.

I can only repay the "special care" of the head coach with hard training.

"The Daishonin system can help you replicate the player's skills in the sleepspace training ground, if only it could unlock the player's daily training!" Wen Jie thought to himself.
