Chapter 239: Depressed Matthias
As a newcomer to the team for less than a month, Fernandes has been in a happy mood during this time. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info
For no other reason, he has scored in two consecutive games, especially in the past match against Murcia, and his goal helped the team to victory, and it is not an exaggeration to say that he was the most important player in this game.
Of all the newcomers to the team, his performance is arguably the most outstanding, which is bound to attract more attention from coaches and improve his status in the team.
Although he still has a lot of problems with the team as a whole, his ability is enough to impress everyone, and he firmly believes that as long as he is given enough time, his performance will only get better and better, and then ...... Become the main force of the team!
He has the confidence to be able to do that, and the source of his confidence is a growing number of supporters. When he first joined the team, few fans in the town knew who he was, but now, with two goals in two games, there is an endless stream of fans who gather outside the training ground every day.
Fans held up posters and portraits of him, shouted his name, and after training, some fans screamed and frantically asked him for autographs and group photos.
Fernandes enjoys the feeling of being chased by adoration, and he thinks there's nothing wrong with it, because professional footballers are chasing two things, except for profit, and fame. The fans' pursuit will make him more powerful, which is the source of motivation for him to work harder on the field.
"Matthias, you're really popular, wow, a lot of fans like you!"
"What envy, Matthias! You've only been here for a long time, and you've gained so many fans. ”
"Keep it up, man, and as long as your good performance continues, you'll have more and more chasers."
Every team-mate who passed by the training ground would say a word of envy to Fernandes, who was surrounded by fans, and then give a thumbs up to show their admiration.
It was Fernandez's happiest moment, and it gave him a sense of accomplishment that the center of the world was in him.
Of course, just as the sunrise has sunset, and the tide rises and falls, there are two sides to everything in the world, and there are times when you are happy, and there are times when you are unhappy.
For Fernandes, whenever he is enthusiastic and enthusiastic to sign autographs for fans, as soon as Van Bizhuang appears, it is a time to embarrass him.
The reason is also very simple, Fan Bizhuang can always arouse greater interest and popularity of fans, and the cheers and applause of fans give him are more violent, that is, at this time, the fans who were originally around him will always suddenly become much less - because they are more willing to chase the Chinese teenager with a cool expression.
This made Fernandez angry, but helpless, of course he would not admit that he was inferior to the other party in strength, in his opinion, the other party was just one step ahead of him.
"It won't be long before the most popular player here will be me! Wait and see, Fan! ”
Every time at this time, Fernandez would clench his fists and cheer himself up firmly in his heart. And then...... There will be no then, because the big dog called "Spring Festival" will appear beside him, to be exact, under his feet, raise his hind legs, and pee on a puddle of sparse pee.
The very spiritual Spring Festival, as if he could feel the hostility of the guy in front of him to his master, always poured a basin of cold water on Fernández when he was full of ambition.
Fernandez felt that he was about to be made into a nervous breakdown by this man and a dog, the owner was an indifferent person, and he ignored himself, and this dog was a ghost elf, and every time he urinated under his feet, and then without waiting for himself to get angry, he ran away without a trace, and he couldn't get angry.
"Why are pets allowed in the training ground? Ahh ”
In response to Fernandez's rant, his teammates were all gloating and laughing. Even his friend Rosie covered her mouth and laughed.
"Matthias, don't bully the Chinese New Year, he's the team's special assistant coach, and if you provoke him, all your teammates will get you in trouble, uh, including me."
This is Rossi's "warning" to Fernandez.
Although Fernandes has not been in the team for a long time, he is also well aware of this, and at this training ground, the most popular, even if he is unwilling, has to admit that it is Fan Bizhuang. And in second place, it is not Riquelme, the team's attacking core, nor Diego, the team's top scorer. Fran, not the coaches of the team, but the one who wanders around the training ground...... Big Yellow Dog.
The players love it, the coaches love it, and the fans rejoice every time they see it, always bringing it all kinds of snacks from home......
With such a popular "special assistant coach", Fernandez did not dare to provoke even if he was bold.
However, if you think about it for a while, you think that the world is really crazy - a professional football club's training ground, let a pet in, and even put a position on this pet, special assistant coach, what is that...... Alas, what a man is not as good as a dog!
Spit and complain, the so-called injustice has a debtor, and Fernandez naturally blames his dissatisfaction on the head of the culprit Fan Bizhuang.
"Hmph, it won't be long before I defeat you and take your main position! When the time comes, it's up to you, and your dog, to continue to be so stubborn! ”
Fernandes is determined in his heart, and at the same time full of anticipation for the upcoming derby - his performance in the two rounds has been excellent, while Van Bizhuang has no goals, no assists, and is banned in the last round, and no one knows what his state will be.
With such a comparison, I should have a chance to squeeze him to the bench and become a starter, right?
However, Fernandez's expectations were disappointed after all, and after the day's training, assistant coach Mr. Ruben did not announce the disbandment of the team, but brought everyone together.
This is to announce the eighteen-man squad for Saturday's derby against Valencia.
"The starting eleven, goalkeeper Diego. López, defenders Javiventa, Diego. Godin, Gonzalo...... Midfielder Roman ...... Fan! The striker is ......"
The list of the starting eleven was all read out, and there was no name of his own, much to Fernandez's disappointment. Although he had expected it, he still seemed very unwilling when the facts were really in front of him. I worked so hard in training, and I tried my best to show myself in the game, scoring in two games in a row, which is extremely good, but I still couldn't impress the manager.
As if sensing his friend's unwillingness, Rosie patted him lightly on the shoulder: "Don't take it personally, Matthias." You're already good, but you've only been in the team for a short time, and you still need to build more chemistry with the big guys. Don't be discouraged and take your time. ”
Rosie still hasn't said a word, you are indeed very good, but the competitors you face are too strong, Fan, but you are even better than you!
Fernandez nodded silently, looking at the oriental boy who was surrounded by his teammates in the center not far away, the unwillingness and fighting spirit in his heart were becoming more and more vigorous.
"Time will tell how good I am and I'm going to be a real key player in this team, wait, Fan!"
…………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………
Time flies by like water.
Saturday arrived as scheduled, and the small town on this day seemed to be more boiling and lively.
Valencia's derby in the same area may not be as popular and influential as the Madrid derby, Real Madrid and Barcelona's national derby, but the so-called one mountain cannot tolerate two tigers, but as long as they are in the same place, then the fight between each other is always fierce and exciting, always full of gunpowder.
The teams from the capital city have a glorious history, they consider themselves to be city dwellers, they claim to be the representatives of the region, and there is only one attitude towards other teams in the same district, and that is disdain.
For example, Villarreal, Valencia calls them "country teams", and the players who play for this team, as well as the fans who support the team, call them "hillbillies" with contempt.
It is an undisguised disdain and contempt.
Villarreal is not a big club in the first place, and there aren't many honors in the history of the team, almost none, to be exact. But that doesn't stop them from loving football. Yes, they are hillbillies, but hillbillies also have dignity, and hillbillies also have a fanatical love for football.
For the merciless ridicule and contempt of the big brother in the same city, no one can accept such an insult.
This is the origin of the contradiction, one side is empty-eyed and high-minded, and the other side has to fight for its own dignity and its football dreams.
The townspeople poured out of their nests, those with tickets came to the Love Song Stadium early, and those who did not have tickets gathered in the square outside the stadium, or in the malls and bars not far away, and in the first game of the new season, they were unceremoniously knocked to the ground by Valencia, leaving disappointed amid the laughter of the other party.
Now that they have returned to their turf, they are bound to return all the "insults and embarrassments" they have received to each other! They are not players, they can't decide the performance in the game, all they can do is play the role of the twelfth man on the field, and this time, they must let those high city people know that the hillbilly can also play football well, and they can also ...... Overthrow the people of the city!
