Chapter 448: Captain
Now Ricardo is past the age to tremble in front of the manager.
The Golden Ball Award, the halo of the world footballer, the honor of the Triple Crown, the Serie A champion, the La Liga champion, the top scorer in Serie A, the top scorer in La Liga, and the top scorer in the history of the Copa America......
A long list of accolades has made him one of the most recognizable stars on the planet.
He can play personality, he can play big names, he can not bird any manager, he has this qualification.
On the contrary, any manager needs to take care of his emotions, need to take care of his dressing room status, and take any demands on him seriously.
However, Licardo politely asked Dunga to sit down, and said with a smile: "Boss, what do you want to talk to us about?" ”
Dunga glanced around the room and replied, "Your teammates have gone out to have fun, aren't you going?" Girls in Venezuela are warm, beautiful, and open-minded. ”
"I'm married, sir," Kaka smiled shyly, "I'm very faithful to marriage. ”
Ricardo smiled: "I'm more interested in football than women. ”
"That's good," Dunga nodded in satisfaction, "but on the night of the championship, wouldn't it be nice for you to stay in your room and not get together with your teammates." ”
Ricardo said domineeringly: "I have my own style and habits, and everyone knows that no one will say anything. ”
Kaka also thought it was funny. Ronaldo and Ronaldinho did not join the team. Carlos and other old qualifications have withdrawn from the national team, Gilberto, Gilberto. Veteran players such as Silva lack prestige, not to mention other young players, Ricardo is the highest-ranking player in this team despite his youth, and no one dares to say anything about him.
"Although I'm trying to downplay my personal heroism when facing the media," Dunga looked at Ricardo and smiled at Kaka, "but I know very well that you two are the biggest contributors to the championship this time we can win the championship." ”
"No, we're a strong team," Licardo laughed, "even without me and Kaka, there would have been others who stepped up and led the team to the championship." ”
He didn't say anything, and in another time and space, although the Brazilian team did not have him and Kaka, it was still Robinho and Baptista who broke out to win the Copa America.
Kaka nodded in agreement.
Dunga, of course, didn't know anything about the other plane. Hearing Ricardo say that, he could only think that the two stars were very humble, which made him even more satisfied.
"Listen, I'm thinking about something," Dunga said with a smile put away and seriousness, "Ronnie is getting older, and after recovering from such a serious injury, I think it should be difficult for him to get back to the top......"
"He'll be back to the top." Ricardo interrupted him.
Dunga was not displeased. He had long heard that the brothers Ricardo and Ronaldo had a deep relationship. "Sorry, maybe I didn't use the right words. But age is the enemy of all athletes, isn't it? And, even though Ronnie is still the best goalscorer in the world, his personality, his style of play, makes him unfit to be the captain of a team. ”
"Captain?"
"Yes, Captain," Dunga said, "will you be able to take on this duty?" ”
Ricardo was silent. To say yes seems too immodest. To say that you can't do it is against your heart.
"I want you to agree," Dunga looked at Kaka again, "and you're the second captain in my mind." I want you to play a leadership role and lead the team to the World Cup qualifiers and lead us to the World Cup. ”
"It's a big decision, sir," said Ricardo, "I need to think about it, and I think you need to think about it too. ”
"Me too, I need to think about it, I'm not sure I'm going to be a qualified second captain." Kaka nodded in agreement.
Dunga smiled, "I've thought about it seriously. Believe me, I see leadership in you. You can be a good captain. ”
After a pause, Dunga said: "In this Copa America, my tactics are basically centered on you, and you have lived up to my expectations and handed in a perfect answer. Even if Ronnie and Ronaldinho come back, I think I'm still going to put you at the heart of the team. ”
This time Ricardo did not refuse. He likes the feeling of being at the core. As for Ronaldo...... It's good to feed him the ball yourself.
"No problem."
"You have to keep it up, I don't want you to rise and fall like some of your predecessors. Stay away from alcohol, drugs, don't indulge in nightclubs, and don't spend too much energy on women. Listen, I have high expectations for you, and I hope to win the 2010 World Cup with you. Don't let me down! ”
Ricardo laughed, "I'll do what I have to do." ”
Kaka also nodded: "Me too." ”
"Alright," Dunga said, standing up, "then I won't disturb your entertainment, and enjoy it!" ”
After Dunga left, Kaka spoke, "Licardo, would you like to be the captain?" ”
"Why not," said Ricardo blandly, "do you think I can be a good captain?" ”
"Absolutely!" Kaka said seriously, "Just like Mr. Dunga said, you are actually a leader!" I think you can be a good captain. Ronnie is a good player, but he doesn't necessarily make a good captain. He wasn't very engaged in training and didn't talk much in games. ”
"Then I'll give it a try." Ricardo laughed.
"I'll support you."
"Of course you have to support me, because you are the second captain."
"Me? Can I really? I don't think I'm the material to be a captain. Kaka looked a little unconfident.
"Now of course you're not," Ricardo analyzed, "the captain can't be a good gentleman, and you can't think that no one should be offended. But the captain must also be able to reconcile with the mud and be able to adjust the contradictions between the players. Sometimes, the captain has to help the manager suppress some players; Sometimes, the captain has to represent the players and put pressure on the manager. These qualities, for the time being, you do not have. ”
Kaka said dejectedly, "I'm really not fit to be the captain. ”
"But these can be learned," said Ricardo with a smile, "don't panic, you promise Dunga first, and I'll teach you how to be a good captain." ”
"How do you know so much?" Kaka was a little confused, "You're 4 years younger than me. And you didn't be a captain either, I remember, you never were a captain when you were in the youth team of São Paulo. ”
Ricardo smiled: "Maybe I'm better at observation than you, I've been paying attention to how the captain of the team deals with all kinds of contradictions, and learning while observing." ”
Kaka thought thoughtfully: "Then I'm going to start studying too." ”
