For Qin Shou, this time was also extremely tormenting.

On the one hand, his performance is not as bright as before, and the other point is that many media have criticized his style of play, believing that he plays too alone, sacrificing the interests of the team as a whole, and is one of the culprits of the team's current predicament.

Regarding the media's critical remarks, Qin Shou didn't take it seriously at all. When he performs well, he praises it as much as he can, and when he plays averagely, he can't wait to reduce himself to the scum of war.

If the player is not determined enough, maybe he really can't accept such ups and downs. How many young players in world football are extremely talented and potential, and their performances have blinded everyone's eyes when they first debuted, and the media has blown it up, as if he is the next football king. And when the players don't perform well, the media devalue them like **** on the side of the road, penniless.

One moment it was as high as a cloud, and the next moment it fell into the abyss, and many young players gradually disappeared in front of everyone's eyes in this back and forth, and finally fell into mediocrity.

Fortunately, Qin Shou has a strong heart, he is very clear about his future, he has chosen the path of professional football, then he must be successful. He will never stop halfway until he has made a lot of money.

Having stayed in a place like the UK where the media industry is highly developed and paparazzi are rampant, Qin Shou also knows the temperament of media reporters very well, so when he is praised, he can still recognize himself. In the same way, when he is in trouble, he remains unfazed - there is always a time when difficulties have passed, and before dawn, there is always darkness. As long as there is light, then there will never be despair.

And Qin Shouzhi's suffering, or rather uncomfortable, is because the team as a whole has problems, and he, as the core figure of the team, has not been able to lead the team out of the quagmire - although he has worked hard. But in the context of his teammates' sluggish state, he also has a feeling of powerlessness.

But Qin Shou is still confident about the future of the team.

Having played alongside his teammates for so long, he knows exactly what his teammates are. They are young, they are full of energy, and they have an extraordinary desire for victory and glory.

He believes that as long as they get through this difficult period, the team will slowly get back on track.

It's just that he's not sure how long this difficult period will be, and if it's shorter, the team can still be very competitive for the league title, if it's too long. Then, if you want to compete for honors, you can only look forward to next season.

Qin Shou looked up at the blue sky, he suddenly felt that he should have a good talk with head coach Simeone, he thought that the team had only one way to get out of the current predicament, and that was to win as soon as possible. With the current situation of the team, it is very difficult to get a win, and he has to shoulder a bigger responsibility as the heart of the team.

Now that the teammates are in a slump for the time being. Then he'll do it himself!

Qin Shou clenched his fists tightly, he didn't believe it, he couldn't lead the team to win yet!

………………………………………………………………………………………………………

When Courtois and Qin Shou sat on the ground silently, some players who also didn't have much training thought also came over. A group of people sat on the ground, in a daze, looking at the sky, all silent.

Such an eerie atmosphere of silence is really uncomfortable. Courtois, who has always been lively, began to have nothing to say.

"We've been doing really badly lately, and there's a lot of accusing us outside......"

Courtois is saying this lightly, where is the media accusing them. It's almost one-sided invective.

However, Courtois's voice opened the conversation to the players, and a group of people started to talk about it with righteous indignation.

"Those unethical guys, when we behave well, they praise us all! Now we're not behaving well, and we're almost calling us dogs......"

"It's so damning! What bastards this group of people is! ”

"Well, don't talk about that, we're really bad."

"It's all out there saying that we're caught in a cycle of invincibility, and you think we're really caught in some kind of curse."

"It's possible. There are indeed many such strange circles in world football, like why England have not won against Sweden in 30 years, Germany is almost unbeaten on penalties, and Portugal burps when they hit a penalty...... Alas, I think we all worked hard during the game, but why can't we win? ”

"What went wrong?"

The big guys are talking about it, and the conversation is endless, but the topic of conversation is always on the team's performance in the recent period.

Qin Shou didn't speak, just quietly watched his teammates discuss on the lawn.

He didn't want to participate in such a meaningless discussion, but Courtois didn't want to let him go, he touched Qin Shou with his arm and threw out the core question of everyone's discussion: "Qin, you also tell me, what's wrong?" ”

The big guy stopped expressing his opinions and looked at Qin Shou.

Today's Qin Shou has already won the respect of his teammates with his excellent performance and stable performance, coupled with Qin Shou's core identity, so everyone is willing to listen to Qin Shou's opinion.

Qin Shou glanced around, and seeing that everyone was looking at him with burning eyes, Qin Shou lowered his head and thought for a while, but instead of directly answering Courtois's question, he told a small story.

"In the ancient times of our country, there was a general, he was just a child of a poor family, and through his own efforts, he became an excellent general, and he defeated many other famous generals who were famous at that time. This inevitably made him arrogant, thinking that he was the best general in the world and the most capable of fighting. And under his long-term pride, in the end he was defeated by another general who was not very famous. ”

This is an improved version of the allusion to the "proud soldiers will be defeated", the story is small and simple, and the Atletico players present can understand and understand the meaning.

People can have pursuits, and they must have pursuits, but when they have achieved certain achievements, they can't be blindly arrogant and arrogant, and they can't think that they are invincible.

Some of the players' cheeks suddenly turned a little red.

Qin Shou didn't make it clear, but thinking about the team's successive victories, especially the change of mentality after the victory over the powerful Barcelona, isn't this the story of "arrogant soldiers will be defeated" in Qin Shou's mouth?

Seeing that most of his teammates understood the meaning of the story he told, Qin Shou smiled before continuing: "Actually, I think we lost at the right time. ”

The teammates were surprised and looked at Qin Shou with their mouths wide open. What does it mean to lose, and to lose at the right time?

'I think we had a bit of a mentality problem after a back-to-back win. Seeing that his teammates nodded, Qin Shou continued, "The poor performance during this period of time can be regarded as a wake-up call for us. If we don't adjust our mindset and be clear about our goals, it's likely that our performance will continue to be poor. ”

The teammates nodded, and after listening to the little story Qin Shou told before, and understanding the meaning, everyone thought deeply about this. It's just, what does this have to do with losing at the right time?

Qin Shou continued to tell the story: "Once upon a time, there was a farmer who raised a lot of sheep in the fence of his yard, but one day, he found that his sheep were missing. But he didn't care, thinking that he had lost one when he went out to herd sheep. But then every day he would find that one sheep was missing from the flock, and then he would look for the cause, and find that it was a hole in the fence through which the wolf had gotten in, and each time he took a sheep.

The farmers then rushed to repair the fence and plug the hole.

The neighbor said to him, "Your sheep have been taken away by wolves, why do you have to repair the fence, because the sheep that have been taken away will not come back anyway."

The farmer replied that the lost sheep would not come back, but that the fence would be repaired and the remaining sheep would not be taken away. As long as the fence is intact, the past can only become the past, and the remaining sheep can continue to give birth to new sheep, and life will still be full of hope. ”

It's called Healing.

Qin Shou did not explain why he lost at the right time, he hoped that through this little story, his teammates would understand something.

Some of the Atletico players kept their heads down in contemplation, as if they had thought of something, and kept nodding their heads.

Seeing this, Qin Shou finally smiled: "I think it's much better to find these problems early than to find them later." When we are at our most proud, we suddenly fall into a trough, which gives us more time to correct our mistakes, and we can also have more time to make up for them as soon as possible. And when we get rid of all the shortcomings, we will still be a strong team and we will still be able to challenge for glory. ”

After a few moments, the teammates woke up from their contemplation and spoke again.

"Qin, I see what you mean. The sooner we lose, the sooner we can understand that we can't be proud, we must have a good mentality and a firm belief in winning. ”

"yes, we're losing now, so we can wake up sooner. If we get into such a situation in the second half of the league, even if we find the mistake and correct it, it will be too late, and the league championship will already be in someone else's pocket! ”

"That's right! We lost just in time! Ha, I suddenly feel that losing is not a bad thing, and I am full of confidence for the future games......"

"Temporary difficulties can't stop us, we're going to patch up the fence."

"Qin, the story you tell is so good, it's a pity that you don't write fairy tales. Are all Chinese like you? ”

Seeing that his teammates seemed to have their faces full of brilliance at this moment, Qin Shou smiled happily. (To be continued.) )
