Chapter 22: Isabella (2)
"Does it matter what I've done before? Besides, working as a stock manager has only made me more comfortable with everything I am doing now, and there are no disadvantages! Didn't the famous Jorge Mendes also be a video vendor and become a disco owner after his career grew? At that time, who knew that he could become an agent who would influence world football in the future? ”
Isabella, who had already guessed Saint-Tiago's reaction, interrupted him without scruples, and at this moment, Isabella was like a majestic rooster, blushing and saying loudly.
This is the first time she showed a gaffe in front of Saint-Tiago, obviously Isabella, who thought that this matter was safe, was in a hurry, seeing Saint-Tiago's somewhat dull expression, Isabella wanted to defend herself after coming to her senses but didn't know where to speak, she could only make Saint-Tiago believe in herself over and over again.
It looks like a futile struggle.
The breeze blows and the pale blue curtains flutter behind him, creating a wonderful work of art with Isabella in the slanting sun, and if Isabella herself doesn't mind, Santhiago thinks "Roaring Mad Woman" should be a good name.
“...... Well, I can't believe I was convinced by you! ”
I don't know why, looking at Isabella like a rival, San Tiago was suddenly convinced, and he spread his hands helplessly.
"Really... It's true... Cough... Don't worry, Santi, wait and see, I will definitely help you ..... to Boca Juniors" After a flash of disbelief, Isabella's face was immediately surrounded by a look of joy, and although she tried to calm herself, the joy of being affirmed from the heart could not be hidden.
Santiago shook his head at this, this time he finally knew why he wanted to promise Isabella, looking at her joyful expression, Santiago couldn't help but think of himself a few years ago, the self who was eager to play, eager to prove himself but repeatedly unable to get the opportunity.
Even if he knew that waiting and being willing to be calm was a path that every professional player must go through, but at that time, Saint-Tiago did not complain in his heart, and only those who have experienced it will know how fortunate it is to meet a manager who dares to use young players and dares to let go of young players.
Not everyone can succeed at first, but Santhiago is convinced that he will succeed and succeed again, and in a sense he and Isabella are actually the kind of people.
After once again telling Isabella whether the final contract was finalized or the result of her final contact with Boca Juniors, Santhiago sent her away, lazily lay back in bed, and set her future training plan.
Normally, before each training session of the Olympic team, Batista will convene a meeting with the coaching staff to determine the specific training content and plan of the class, and the team's medical team will also be involved in it, providing relevant information about the players' injuries and physical conditions, of course, not only the national Olympic team, but almost all clubs, the difference is only in the details.
So the players didn't have to get up too early, and Batista stipulated that the players of the national Olympic team should arrive at the training base at 10:30 in the morning, and if they were late, they would be severely punished by him. The first subject in training is the warm-up, except for the most basic cantering, stretching and other prescribed movements, the players generally love to grab the lap, but at this time the players training at the Maradona stadium can not play this game.
Because almost all the players of the national Olympic team on the training ground of Nuoda are undergoing high-intensity physical training, except for Romero, who is recovering from training.
The 21-year-old Romero helped Argentina's U20 national youth team win the South American runner-up and world championship as the main goalkeeper in 07, and landed in the Eredivisie from the Argentine domestic league Alkmaar.
Thankfully, with less than three months to go, Romero's injury is about to heal and he is now back on the ball, which makes it possible for him to play at the Olympics despite missing the rest of the season's Eredivisie games.
Coach Battista sent his assistants to start scouting the players scattered on all continents again, trying to see if there would be any new discoveries before the final list was confirmed, and then devoted himself to the national Olympic team. It has to be said that Batista is indeed a very dedicated coach of the national Olympic team, and to some extent he has a side that scares the players, and Santhiago was fortunate enough to try it on the second day of joining the team.
As we all know, except for the closed training camp, in the ordinary training camp, the players almost all live in hotels, but because the personnel are not neat this time, Santiago and others go back and forth to their home in Buenos Aires every day. A small number of players who don't own a property here also live in a nearby hotel, so after completing a training session each day, the players can leave the pitch and go where they want.
But to Santtiago's surprise, Batista was a coach who had the essence of the military training system, and he suddenly made an emergency gathering! After the group text message, the assistant coaches took the phone to reconfirm one by one, and then stood at the training ground with various instruments and waited for the arrival of the players.
When the half-believing players hurried to the pitch, they were dumbfounded when they saw this scene! And more importantly, before they could react, the assistant coach walked up with a serious face and took a tube to signal the player to blow first.
Seeing such a situation, Santiago wondered, what is this? Late-night spirometry?
But when he saw his friend Banega coming in a panic and woke up with a drunken face, Santiago understood everything. Dare to love this is a surprise inspection! This Mr. Battista is still really idle! But it makes sense when you think about it, South American players have always been difficult to control themselves, and every night falls when a new life begins for them, not to mention the players of the national Olympic team who have become famous and complacent at a young age, which can only be recruited by first-class talents!
Thinking of this, Santhiago breathed a sigh of relief, fortunately he stood firm today and was not dragged away by that guy from Banega, otherwise it would not be a good thing to leave a bad impression on the coach the next day! Looking at Banega, whose face was flushed, Santiago knew that this guy must have drunk a lot! I turned my head and saw that Di Maria was sleepy, yo, this guy really slept early enough! However, this rib-like body really needs more nourishment! What about this side? Eh, what's Riquelme's situation?
There is an imperceptible anger hidden under the calm face, and the slightly twitching brow has a sad expression! Kindness...... After unconsciously leaning over and taking a deep breath, the former veteran Santiago immediately judged that this was an unsatisfying taste! Seeing this overage player was not let go by the coaching staff! It's really inhumane, someone else, as a father of two children, has a rare XXOO life that has been interrupted! Is there any reason for this?
Shaking his head sadly, after making sure that he was safe, Santhiago triumphantly stepped forward and measured his alcohol content proudly under the envious eyes of his teammates, and almost sang an impromptu song with interest, but under the cold gaze of Batista, Santhiago dispelled this idea.
It seems that the coach is not lightly angry today!!
Looking back, as for why there are continuous large-scale physical training and late-night spot checks, the reason is because the Argentine Olympic team has a game, and in this case, when the dust is about to settle in the major leagues, the Argentine Football Association, which has never been very useful, has finally done a good thing.
After consulting Batista's consent, they made an appointment with a match for the boys of the national Olympic team on the 12th, the Cameroon national Olympic team.
