Yes, Chang Sheng certainly knows that this is Gorka.

Because he knows.

After answering Stramaccioni, Chang Sheng turned his head back and looked at Gorka, who was seriously leading the team in training on the field.

Although his face Changsheng recognized, Changsheng felt that the person in front of him was so unfamiliar......

Is this the "genius" Gorka he remembers?

It's really different from the "genius" he remembers......

When Gorka came to Furmello to look for him, Chang Sheng was moved by his words and decided to give him a chance to make amends.

But to be honest, Chang Sheng didn't believe much that Gorka could make up for his mistakes.

He thinks that Gorka will definitely lose the motivation to move on after three minutes of heat, as before. He would complain that the coaching job was boring and hard, and he didn't have the patience to get along with the little kids.

Maybe in a year's time, he will leave the Furmelo training base on his own initiative, and he won't even think to say a word to himself, as if he had never been here.

At that time, Chang Sheng wanted to give Gorka a year, even if Gorka did not take the initiative to leave Lazio during this year, he would have to come to see his work at that time. If he is found to be incompetent as a coach, he will be expelled.

Since then, he has nothing to do with him, and he gave him a chance, but he didn't prove his strength, so it's no wonder that others.

But when he gave Gorka a chance, he forgot about it in a blink of an eye.

There are so many things that you have to do everything yourself. The affairs of the first team are too busy, who has time to care about the affairs of an ordinary rookie coach of the youth team.

So the one-year appointment has actually arrived, but Chang Sheng forgot about it.

If it weren't for the fact that I happened to come to the academy to find players this time, and I happened to want to take a turn. Maybe he won't remember to let Gorka just stay in the academy......

Now after seeing Gorka, Chang Sheng remembered everything about the meeting between the two a year ago.

※※※

One player was cut off by a defender who used his body to fight not long after the lap drill began, so he had to switch to the middle to grab the ball.

However, the player seems to be a little unhappy with the coach's arrangement.

When he reached the middle, he almost stood still, and even if he did, he did so symbolically after two steps and then stopped.

The football passed around him. He didn't even care.

There are two people who come to the middle to be responsible for grabbing the circle.

The players who pass the ball on the periphery see that he is a bully among these two people, so he deliberately passes to his side when passing, and he continues to defend passively, so the pass will always go smoothly.

But in this way, it seems that this set of training will continue in this cycle indefinitely. Anyway, people in the circle can't grab the ball, and people outside the circle can't lose the ball, so the offense and defense can't be interchanged, and these people will always be the same.

Even Chang Sheng frowned when he saw it, and he asked Stramaccioni next to him: "Who is the tall and thin man in the middle?" ”

He was referring to the little player who was passive and defensive.

As the director of the academy, Stramaccioni is still quite proficient in business and knows all his players well.

He already knew who it was. So as soon as Chang Sheng asked a rhetorical question, he immediately replied: "Andrea Borg." The Czech youngster, only 16 years old, but he has outstanding talent, and he is outstanding in the U17s......"

Chang Sheng frowned and said, "Outstanding? ”

It was at this moment that they all heard a whistle.

Gorka whistled and suspended training.

Then I saw him go in. Stopped the talented young player.

"Andrea, what are you doing?"

The young player spread his hands to Gorka and said, "Coach, I don't think this kind of training is reasonable!" ”

"How unreasonable?"

"Lap-grabbing training is just passing. Why is physical contact allowed? ”

Young players and coaches are theoretical.

"Because physical contact is a real game, you always have to deal with physical contact. Adapt ahead of time in training. It's better than rushing into a game. Gorka said.

"I'm good at the technique, I'm fast, I can shake them off early and then make a pass......"

The young player doesn't seem to be convinced, but it can be seen that he is very confident in his skills.

Gorka didn't refute him, but nodded: "Okay, let's go one-on-one, you try to get rid of my pass." ”

※※※

Seeing Gorka whistle and pause the game, and then argue with that little genius Borg, the corners of Chang Sheng's mouth involuntarily curled.

The words that Gorka had spoken to him a year ago rang in his ears again.

"I regret that I was young and ignorant, impulsive and willful. So I'm in this situation now. But...... My life is still a long time compared to my career, I have already made a mistake once when I was younger, and I don't want to make a second mistake......"

Gorka and Borg in front of them have already set up their positions.

The other players also stopped training and curiously gathered around the two men to watch their showdown.

Borg started dribbling the ball about fifteen yards from Gorka, who met him.

The two men soon met, and the young players around them all held their breath, nervously watching the matchup.

Chang Sheng suddenly felt that this scene was familiar......

Sure enough, just as Borg was about to perform a feint to shake off Gorka, Gorka slammed into him and knocked Borg, who was doing a feint, to the ground.

Everything came to an abrupt halt.

There was a burst of exclamations among the onlookers.

Borg fell to the ground and rolled several laps before stopping the castration.

Gorka stood next to him and looked at him from above: "You lost, Andrea. ”

Borg was knocked into a bit of a daze, and then he shouted: "Isn't this a foul, coach!" ”

"It's a foul, but your offense is also finished. I stopped your offense with a foul, so you lost. ”

"That's not right...... Borg looked terrified. He felt like he might have been fooled......

"What's wrong with that? Is it strictly forbidden to foul in the game? Can you make your opponents act like a gentleman in front of you? Gorka asked rhetorically to Borg, who was sitting on the ground. This is a football game, and a football game is a sport that allows physical contact and confrontation. If you're not even physically resistant, what are you playing? A person who does not like physical contact and is afraid of confrontation cannot become a qualified professional football player! ”

Gorka raised the volume.

"You think you're talented, Andrea? I don't know how many people I have seen who are more talented than you, who can become professional players and play professional games, which one is not talented? What does it mean to be talented? If you don't even have the determination and courage to face the odds, I advise you to leave Vermelo as soon as possible. Professional football isn't for you, and football isn't for you. ”

Borg sat on the floor, staring blankly at Gorka, his Academy coach suddenly becoming so agitated that he couldn't understand why......

He certainly won't understand why. The off-field winning is clear.

Maybe it's from this Borg that Gorka sees himself, right?

Wasn't he the same person he used to be? Relying on his outstanding talent, he can play better than the average player casually, so he doesn't take his training seriously, he doesn't care about fighting against others, and in the end he is even afraid of confrontation.

Ultimately...... After being cleaned up by himself, he was kicked out of Getafe's youth team.

And then. He didn't even play in a serious professional league before retiring.

"You're better and more talented than your peers. That's your advantage, but you should cherish it! You should do better than everyone else on this basis and not indulge yourself! You don't want to do today's training, go to the side and train alone. Reflect on what your problem is. When is the reflection clear, when will come and tell me. And let you come back again! ”

Gorka's words were so majestic that the young Borg got up in fright, and without saying a word, he obediently ran to the side to train alone.

Gorka blew his whistle and said to the other players: "Nothing to see, keep training, boys!" ”

※※※

"I ...... I'm fully aware of my problems, I've never taken football seriously...... I thought I could just become a star with my talent. But I was wrong...... So coach, please give me a chance. I retired early because I couldn't get used to the intense professional football. Then I did a lot of jobs, gas stations, restaurants...... I've done it all. But I didn't do anything for long, and it wasn't until I went to watch your Champions League final at the Bernabeu that I realized that I still like football and I want to do something that I like...... So please, coach, please give me a chance, give me a chance to do it all over again......"

These are the words of Gorka when he begged Chang Sheng to give him a chance.

Now Chang Sheng thinks that Gorka is really reflective and fully aware of his mistakes.

His hatred of Borg may also have a sense of regret for his past.

If he had listened to himself back then, maybe he would be a different person today, right?

"Gorka has been really good throughout the year, so I let him train with a team on his own. He's got into shape very quickly, it's unbelievable that he hasn't coached before......"

Stramacioni introduced Chang Sheng from the side.

Chang Sheng nodded.

Twelve years ago, Gorka was the thorn in the thorn when he took over the Getafe youth team, and now it is Gorka's turn to clean up the thorn himself......

What a perfect cycle.

In this cycle, Gorka went through many stories that changed his entire life.

But anyway, like he said, his career is short, but his life is still long. Just because he did something wrong when he was young doesn't mean he has been denied in this life.

Fortunately, he recognized his problem in time, so he still has a chance to start over.

And after he became a coach, he also shared his experience with the young players, so that those young people would take fewer detours, which may also make up for his original regrets......
