"Maybe you're a good coach, but I don't have much to do with you." Frightened by Li Bin's firm words, the scout was silent for a while, but soon, he realized that he was in big trouble today.

In this world, the most terrifying thing is not to meet those loyal and affectionate guys. Professional football is full of cold-bloodedness, and as a scout, how to sophistry about feelings and careers is a must. However, what they are afraid of is that they meet such a serious coach: they can list the weaknesses and shortcomings of the giant team in the form of data in detail, so that any player who has seen it will be convinced, and they have not studied it deeply enough, but they can't refute him, and the name of their own giant coach, and the other party doesn't care - such a guy with skills is the most annoying.

He is a scout for Manchester United, there is no need to pay attention to the coach of such a small team, "You are just to let him stay, I don't need to pay attention to you, you have no right to meddle in this matter, this is his own business." ”

"But you have no right to decide, Joseph, say it yourself, what do you think?" Li Bin turned his head.

The scout had already lost - Li Bin didn't pay any more attention to him. His morale has been lost by Li Bin. Now, he's not an enemy, Giuseppe Rossi's restless heart is.

Giuseppe Rossi was silently flipping through the information that Li Bin gave him about Manchester United's academy, and only after half a day did he look up again.

Giuseppe Rossi flipped through the profile, and although the information on the profile told him that it might not be easy for him to get a place at Manchester United, he still found it difficult to accept.

Ferguson has a good reputation for promoting young people, which is why he accepted Manchester United's invitation for anything, but now, the information in front of him tells him that he and Ferguson still have a few years to go before they ask for a young age.

Four years is too long for a restless heart.

"Head, did you make this for me?" Looking at this information, Rosie also raised his head, "To keep me?" ”

"To admonish you. I'm not sure you'll stay, but I'll have to tell you how dangerous the road ahead of you is. After all, I've taught you for so many years, and I can't bear to see you kill yourself. ”

Li Bin's words made Rossi silent for a long time before he spoke again, "Head, Manchester United is now in a period of tactical change. Rossi looked up, "That's what you told me when you gave me a tactical lesson. Because of the fight against Juventus, Ferguson had the idea of reform, he was trying to continentalize Manchester United's style of football, and I have a place there, right? ”

Seeing the change in his attitude, Li Bin knew that he had begun to be tempted. The information he sorted out overnight was directly and easily handed over to him, making him begin to believe that he was indeed thinking about him. This also made him start to waver and ask himself for advice.

"Son, I believe that with your talent, there is such a possibility." Li Bin immediately spoke, "But, you have to understand that you can succeed at Manchester United, but you can also fail. One possibility is that you lead Manchester United's style of football and it becomes a success, but the other possibility is that you become another Veron. You could be in trouble. But if you stay, you're here, you're 100% successful, and then you can go to the top three in the north, where you can start the best chapter of your career. Joseph, you are in a period of high ball, and this time is very important for you, and if you don't get a good development, you will be unlucky. Think about it, do you want a 100% smooth career, or do you want to dedicate your life to a coach who has already failed half of his attempts? You have to understand, how many times Ferguson has failed, he can come again, because he has Manchester United behind him, he succeeds once, he is still the meritorious coach Ferguson, and if you fail once, you are nothing, you have nothing behind you, your path, you have to choose your own way. I still suggest that you stay and have a second look. ”

Rosie was silent for a long time before speaking again, "Actually, sir, I'd love to stay, but as you know, Parma is bankrupt now. Speaking of this problem, Giuseppe Rossi also directly found the simplest reason, "It's not that I'm disloyal, it's the team's problem......"

"The team is just a trusteeship, and it's far from bankruptcy. Rest assured, we can't go bankrupt. Li Bin said, "Parma doesn't owe much, it's not a matter at all, the amount of repayment is very small, at most we just don't have money to bring in reinforcements, and we won't have no money to pay salaries." Your share of salary will never be in arrears. ”

"However, if there is no money to bring in reinforcements, doesn't it mean that the team has lost its ambitions?" Giuseppe Rossi said, "I want to leave a team like this, what's wrong? ”

"We have a saying in China: heroes come out of troubled times. The more you get to the point where the team is bad, the more you can show a person's ability. Next season, the average age of Parma will drop to 23 years old, and there is only Gilardino alone in the forward line, so you have a lot of opportunities. You don't want to be loyal to Parma, I understand it, you don't need to be loyal to it, and I never advise the players to be loyal - everyone has to think about themselves, let people sacrifice their own interests I don't do it, if you want to go to the places that are more suitable for you, I will send you off, but you think for yourself, the striker with a lot of opportunities in the Young Janissaries, or the substitute in the big team, which one can get you more honor? All you need to do is think about yourself. ”

Rosie stopped talking, and Li Bin was silent, he knew that at this time, his own words were almost done. How to make a choice is the business of the person in front of you.

"Head, I'm just looking for something better." Rosie still spoke, "I want to pursue the dream of a better life, and you have always been my role model. You have gone from being an unpopular Chinese in football circles to becoming the youth director of the Serie A Seven Sisters' team, you are my role model, and I want to pursue my dreams like you. ”

"Children, there is a price to be paid for pursuing your dreams, and it is very difficult for you to pursue your dreams without investment." Li Bin took a sip of wine and said softly, "You said that I succeeded in pursuing my dream, which is indeed true, but do you know what kind of price I paid?" I came to Italy when I was not yet twenty years old, and I have been here for more than ten years, and I have been in football for nine years. Except for the first year, when I was studying for coaching qualifications, I was not qualified to participate in football, and since then, I have been serving the football team. But do you know how I worked? I went to look at the potential kids in Italy, wrote a four-page report for each of them, and handed them over to the team. And for every player the team signed, I was paid 60,000 lira. At that time, there were no euros, so you probably understand what 60,000 lira meant, right? ”

Rosie nodded, "Sixty thousand lira, that's probably a small amount of money." ”

"When converted into dollars, it's in your early thirties, less than forty dollars." Li Bin took a sip of wine, "Rarely, isn't it?" But it's still good. Sometimes, I work as a technical scout. Before every game, I went on foot to watch the game, and after watching the game, I had to stay up all night to write a 13-page report and hand it to the team, and I had to work for eight hours in exchange for less than 10,000 lira. Eight hours, in exchange for that little money...... There is a price to be paid for pursuing your dreams, and it is beautiful to fly into the clouds, but it is also cold. Child, I don't want you to go to England, not for myself. To be honest, I'm not sure how many days I'll be in Parma, so why should I keep you? I have paid the price for you, I know what kind of price you need to pay if you want to succeed, I don't want you to take a detour again. You said that you saw the persistent dream from me, but didn't I see the continuation of hope from you? ”

Rosie opened her lips slightly, but, after half a day, he couldn't say anything—

Giuseppe Rossi finally decided to go back and think about it.

Li Bin also knows that he has done his best. Manchester United gave him a weekly salary of tens of thousands, provided him with a villa, and the promise of a big team and a good coach. And ...... for yourself Italy is not allowed to sign contracts with players under the age of 18, and they can only rely on eloquence to persuade him to stay, so that he can think about it, which is the end of the day.

This is already the best situation, the people of Manchester United are speechless, Rossi is also a little hesitant, this is already the best situation, the rest is Rossi's own business.

And this is also the limit of what Li Bin can do.

"Congratulations, Mr. Coach, you have kept the most promising player in your team." Looking at the departing Rossi, Manchester United's scouts turned around and smiled at Li Bin, "First provoke me, then analyze the data to let him know his own risks, and then combine his own experience to tell him the danger and make him willing to stay - you did a very good job." ”

"Your demeanor is admirable." Li Bin looked at the scout, and he was a little surprised, but he still kept smiling.

"I'm representing the image of Manchester United, a big club with the demeanor of a big club." The scout smiled and continued, "But I have one more question – do you really think that Mr. Ferguson is not as good as Mr. Wenger in training new talents? ”

Li Bin pondered for a moment before speaking, "Mr. Wenger's patience in cultivating newcomers is unparalleled, and he is not ashamed. However, Mr Arsene Wenger has sometimes been too pampered with his players and in that regard, he is not very good. It's you here today, so I'm going to talk a lot about the age of Ferguson, but if the person who comes is an Arsenal coach, I'm talking about Wenger's neglect of technical training - it's just a statement, don't care, Ferguson and Wenger are both very good coaches. ”

The scout looked at Li Bin, and after a long time spoke again, "You are a good guy, no matter how hard you try, Parma will not be saved." Parma have too much debt, and it's not something that a coach's hard work can save. ”

"But, at least for now, I'm still the coach of Parma, and since I'm in the coaching position, I'm going to do my job as a coach. And, as I said just now, I did it not for Parma, but for Rossi himself. I'm a coach and I have to think about the future of the players and that's what a coach has to do. ”

"Responsible? But no matter how well you analyze it, but you also have to admit that there are miracles in this world, you don't know what the future looks like, in doing so, you may delay his chance, maybe he can really play well at Manchester United, do you really have no psychological burden? ”

"I don't have any psychological burden on this." Li Bin replied.

Yes, miracles may happen, but such miracles do not happen. Li Bin knows that the end of Rossi's trip to Manchester United is to be repeatedly rented out by Manchester United, and then sold to Villarreal for 6 million euros in 2007, where he played and almost transferred to Barcelona for 35 million, but he was unlucky, suffered an injury, broke his leg twice and then tossed and turned, and returned to Fiorentina to play for 15 million euros in 2013, until he was 26 years old, he became the core player of Fiorentina, the best scorer in Serie A, The absolute main force of the Italian team - such a thing, Li Bin knows it very well.

How could he be unhappy as a time-traveler who saved a player's career and gave him the possibility to develop in a better direction?
