Volume 1 Chapter 398 Maradona II
"Me"
At the post-match press conference at Goodison Park, when the reporter asked Ye Qiu about his views and feelings about this game, the head coach, who has always been very good at facing the media, was somewhat choked up and speechless.
"It was a great game and I think no matter how many years have passed, I will remember this fight"
After calming down, Ye Qiu took a deep breath and answered this question.
"Perhaps, there are no superstars in this game, there is no hearty offensive battle, but this game is enough to ⊥ everyone to feel the passion and charm of football, I don't know if everyone feels this way, but I really forgot everything else completely, I only have one thought in my head, win this game"
Many reporters present nodded their heads after listening to Ye Qiu's words, and many of them were also deeply infected, because when you integrate your feelings and thoughts into a team and into a football game, you can feel this kind of feeling of joy and sadness along with the process of the game.
"Is that why you got carried away and shouted in the final stages of the game?" A reporter raised his hand and stood up and asked.
Ye Qiu touched his throat, coughed, nodded and smiled in a slightly hoarse voice: "Yes, I think about it now, those moves are indeed not appropriate, some of them were too much, but I really didn't think too much about it at the time, I think, my players have worked hard enough, we fought for a full ninety minutes, we shouldn't give up in advance the moment before the whistle sounds"
'If we haven't been able to beat the opponent until the whistle blows, then I'll think, let's draw, it's hard to accept, but this is football, but until the whistle blows, we can't give up, even if there's only one minute, one second left, we have to continue to give it our all.'
"I'm very proud of my players, they finished a great game and I believe that all the Tottenham Hotspur players, the fans, including the coaching staff, will be able to get a lot out of this game, because this game is telling us a truth, as long as you never give up, it will happen sooner or later."
After Ye Qiu finished answering the question, the press officer of Goodison Park Stadium pointed out the next visitor, a female reporter stood up with red eyes and sobs, "Mr. Ye Qiu, I was very moved when I saw your excitement in the game and heard you say this, I have always felt that you are the best and best head coach."
"Xie Lu, thank you," Ye Qiu folded his hands towards her and made a gesture of thanks.
"What I want to ask is, did you ever think that the team would be able to score in the last moments? Why do you feel this way? ”
Ye Qiu thought for a while, nodded and said, "I know that many people will doubt that there are only four minutes left, how can you still feel like you can score?" Bragging and afterthought, right? ”
Ye Qiu's slightly self-deprecating words made everyone present laugh, including Moyes, who was sitting next to him.
'But I really, really feel that way, I trust my players a lot, I'm sure they don't give up easily, we're going to try until the last minute, the last second, so I've always had confidence in my team that we can beat everybody.'
"It's okay to say I'm confident, I'm blind, I'm arrogant, but if as the manager of a team, even I don't have confidence in my team, then I want to ask you, what should I use to influence my players? Tell them that we can beat all our opponents? ”
"I wouldn't say we're the strongest, and I don't dare say we can win every game, but what I dare say is that we go out on the football pitch every game with the belief that we must win, and we will finish every game with the belief of winning and stick to the last minute and the last second."
"No matter what the game is, no matter what the score is, I always believe that as long as we are willing to pay, work hard, and fight, we will definitely be able to get the result we want."
When he said this, Ye Qiu paused and took a deep breath, "I know that there will definitely be many people who think we are lucky, saying that we scored at the last moment, but I don't think it's luck at all, and I don't think we're lucky at all, on the contrary, I think it's the result of our efforts, and the result of all of us not giving up and persevering until the end."
"That's what my players deserve because they put in their own effort and no one can erase the hard work and dedication of my players and put it down to luck when they scored the last moments"
Ye Qiu's words received a lot of applause from the audience, and he also used these words to block a lot of comments that may appear in the newspaper tomorrow morning, that is, to attribute Tottenham Hotspur's goal to luck, or a flash of inspiration in the player's last moment, which is definitely ignored by everyone in Tottenham Hotspur's collective.
What is luck called? What is a flash of inspiration?
Could it be that all the hard work that the players have put in before has been in vain? Could it be that Beckham fought until he stood on the sidelines and vomited, could Fabregas stand up after holding up to the worst, could Alves fight until his leg was injured, and did Messi fight until his consciousness was a little blurred, are these all fake?
Ye Qiu does not reject freedom of speech, but if the freedom of speech of these uncrowned kings hurts him and his players, then he will definitely fight back, because this is a kind of protection for his players and a responsibility to the team.
"Mr. Ye Qiu, I very much agree with your statement, this is not just a kind of luck, so, I want to ask, what do you think of Messi's last moment? It's an absolute genius technique that almost never happens in the Premier League."
The male reporter's question was immediately responded to by many people present, in the Premier League, there are really very few, at least Ye Qiu has never seen such a genius play of five people in a row, so many people want to hear Ye Qiu's opinion, because they can all expect that this will become a big news that the whole world will hear tomorrow.
Even many of them have already thought about giving Leo Messi the title of Maradona II tomorrow.
'When I brought him from Spain to London, I said that he was a true talent, and I never doubted Messi's potential and ability, and I never doubted that sooner or later he would give me, the team, all the Premier League fans, and even the fans of the whole world
'He's a genius but we have to see that he's still young, he's got a lot of shortcomings and weaknesses, he needs to keep improving, I have no doubt that he has the potential to be the best player in the world and I'm sure after this game he's going to get better and better.'
"Here, I also want to make an appeal, the continentalization and technical style of Premier League football has been a well-known trend, but we still haven't kept up with some enforcement standards, I think we should appropriately adjust the enforcement and sentencing of referees, and use the most severe means to combat brutal fouls and violent aggression against players on the football field."
"Only in this way will we be able to attract more and more talented players to the Premier League and increase the impact and spectacle of the Premier League, which I believe all Premier League fans want and want to see.
Ye Qiu's words once again gave him a round of warm applause, because he is not only the head coach of Tottenham Hotspur, but also the owner of Tottenham Hotspur, and he has no problem saying this at all.
The whole press conference completely turned into a one-man show for Ye Qiu from the beginning, and as the host, Moyes was miserably ignored by the media, and it was not until the second half that the media asked him about his views on Tottenham Hotspur.
Although Moyes lost this game, he gave Tottenham Hotspur a high evaluation, believing that Tottenham Hotspur has improved very much this season, and now Tottenham Hotspur even has the strength to break into the top four of the league.
"At the beginning of the season, a lot of people, including me, had a bad opinion of Tottenham Hotspur, this team has a lot of ups and downs, it doesn't look like a team that can do well in the league at all, because the league depends on stability, but after entering the month, Tottenham Hotspur has been impressive, very solid."
'Of course, Tottenham Hotspur is a very young team at the moment, but at the same time a very strong and competitive team, we did not perform as well as our opponents in this game, and we have learned a lot through this game.
'The feeling I get from Tottenham right now is that as long as they can maintain the performance and momentum in this game, then their top-four finish is not an empty talk, but a very good chance of becoming a fact'
For Moyes's high evaluation, Ye Qiu also reciprocated, believing that Everton is very promising to break into European competitions this season, and he also feels that Moyes is one of the best managers in the Premier League at the moment, and he firmly believes that Moyes can lead Everton to rise.
After touting each other, the two head coaches did not forget to shake hands and hug politely after the press conference, allowing all the reporters and media present to take pictures to highlight the friendly atmosphere between the two sides.
For Tottenham Hotspur's away defeat to Everton, the next day immediately became the focus of major newspapers in Europe and even the world, although Manchester United, Arsenal, Chelsea and Liverpool have beaten their opponents to win in this round, but everyone's focus is still on Tottenham Hotspur.
Messi's five-man goal in a row at the critical moment in the last minute of this game was voted the best goal of the round by the Premier League, and it was even considered that it may become the best goal in the Premier League this season, and Messi, the Argentine youngster, can also be said to be famous for one goal, becoming the focus of attention of the world's media, and the title of Maradona II naturally fell on his head.
The Argentine Ole newspaper published a front-page headline about Messi's right-footed goal after five people in a row, and the newspaper gave Messi the crown of Maradona II, believing that the young Tottenham Hotspur talent will become the future hope of Argentine football in the future.
"Since 19RU, Maradona single-handedly brought Argentina to the top of the World Cup, we have been constantly looking for Maradona's successor, and we have been ushering in one super talent after another."
"From Ortega to Gallardo to Veron, from Aimar to Riquelme to Lisandro, one by one Argentine young talents have been crowned with the title of Maradona II, but we can feel that no one has ever been as close to Maradona as Leo Messi, and even when we saw that one minute after the game between Tottenham Hotspur and Everton, Leo Messi relied on the strength of one person to pass five defenders in a row and send the ball into the goal, at that moment, I think what I'm seeing is Maradona."
"Almost the same height, the same flowing long hair, the same outstanding foot skills, the same amazing leadership charisma that saves the team from danger with his individual ability at critical moments, all of this reminds us of Maradona in the distance"
"But Leo Messi still has a long, long way to go, he has a manager who trusts him very well and knows his quality very well, Ye Qiu is recognized by the whole world as the best manager at training young players, his mind is more mature, the misfortune of his childhood, and his hard time on the bench at Chelsea for a year, these experiences will make him more mature and cherish what he has so far."
"These have brought him closer to Maradona than anyone else, and the only hidden danger is the common distress of all geniuses, injuries"
"We sincerely hope that Ye Qiu and Tottenham Hotspur can take better measures to protect the future hope of Argentine football, because we firmly believe that a better and healthier Messi will bring more and greater contributions to Tottenham Hotspur and Argentine football."
Messi's title of Maradona II is not only conferred by newspapers in Argentina, but almost all parts of the world, including Europe, Asia and South America, have given him the title of Maradona II because of his succession, believing that this talented super-talent will have the potential to grow into the future Maradona
Tottenham Hotspur treated this coldly, Ye Qiu publicly stated that Messi will not become Maradona, there are many big differences between the two, he believes that Messi will become the top star in the world, but it must not be Maradona II.
"He will be Messi I," Ye Qiu responded with a smile.
And when Messi suddenly became famous and became the object of praise in the whole world, he did not get carried away at all, but kept expressing his gratitude to the club for the manager, and said that Maradona was his idol and goal, but he did not feel that he was Maradona II.
"In Argentina, all children who like to play football will like Maradona and dream of becoming Maradona, but there will always be only one Maradona, no one can be Maradona, because he is a myth in our hearts, everyone can only be themselves, and that's enough"
And for the rumors that all of a sudden there are many teams interested in him, Messi has always been calm.
'There's no way I'm going to leave Tottenham, I'm fine here, I've got the best manager and the best team-mates and we're going to play the best football, so I can't think of a reason to leave Tottenham
All of a sudden, the world's media were ridiculing and ridiculing Chelsea and Barcelona, and even many Chelsea fans expressed their dissatisfaction with Mourinho, because it was he who threw a talent like Leo Messi back to the youth team last season, which eventually led to Messi's switch to Tottenham Hotspur, and now the Argentine is shining.
"We have sent away the future Maradona for nothing," the Chelsea fans cried out with remorse.
Barcelona also suffered badly, because a year ago they had hoped to get Leo Messi for 2.5 million euros, but because there were Ronaldinho and Giuli in the left winger and right winger positions at that time, and some of the youth team players in the team also performed well, so Barcelona rejected Chelsea's offer and Messi's self-nomination.
And now, the Argentine's value is at least five times higher, and it is likely to continue to climb in the future, Barcelona fans regret that their intestines are green, and they call Laporta a cheat.
When hyping Messi, the media did not forget to give high praise to Tottenham Hotspur's away win over Everton, believing that Tottenham Hotspur's unity and tenacity in this game have greatly improved the team's combat effectiveness.
"The top four in the league should be careful, you have a wolf-like Tottenham Hotspur team behind you, who are waiting for their opportunity and ready to pull them off and replace them at any time"
The Guardian has issued a stern warning to the top four teams in the league in their final commentary, and they don't think it's a surprise to finish in the top four with Tottenham Hotspur's getting better and better.
Looking at the top four teams in the league, Manchester United and Chelsea continue to lead the Premier League table all the way, the two teams bite each other tightly, and now Manchester United is back at the top, while Chelsea are back in second, but the gap between the two teams has always remained between one and two points, and whoever makes a mistake and loses a point can be replaced.
Three days after the first round of the league, Tottenham Hotspur will host the Red Devils Manchester United
The most dangerous is Arsenal and Liverpool, these two teams are fourth and third in the league respectively, and there is a danger of being pulled down by Tottenham Hotspur, especially Arsenal, this team has performed relatively average in the league this season, and its form has been a little up and down, currently 8 points more than Tottenham Hotspur, if one is not careful, it may fall into the top four anytime and anywhere.
But there are also a considerable number of people who have given high praise and expectations to the rise of Tottenham Hotspur, hoping that this team can inject a fresh atmosphere into the Premier League, especially Tottenham Hotspur's admiration and belief in technical skills and attacking football this season, which has made all Premier League fans shine.
Tottenham Hotspur fans kept chanting that the fantastic art football of the past had finally returned to White Hart Lane.
The stadium with its idyllic name has finally welcomed back the football that corresponds to its name
