Section 187 Underlying Rules
u8 update fastest reading network () Zhao Yaning did not pay too much attention to this honor, but he still has a little bit of thoughts. If he can get this honor, he will still be very happy. Jiuli said this, which made him look up in confusion.
After all, it wasn't a newspaper that presented the award, but the French Professional Footballers' Union. As a major authority in French professional football, they have a lot of influence, and if they can be recognized, Zhao Yaning will still be very happy.
Although he himself knew that he didn't actually deserve this award. If there is anyone who is the most qualified, it is Guingamp's Drogba who is more qualified, he is also a newcomer who has just played in Ligue 1, and he is about the same starting point as Zhao Yaning, but he is currently fourth on the shè list, behind Pauletta, Roundup, and Cisse. But his problem is that he is too old, and at 23 years old, he is no longer eligible to participate in the selection.
But considering the start of his career and his injury history in the early years, it's not an exaggeration to say that this is his rookie season.
"Joey, I don't mean to be dissatisfied with you, you've played really well this season and if you speak purely technically, I think you deserve the award for the best newcomer in Ligue 1. But, the problem is that you are not French. The award for the best newcomer in Ligue 1 has always been given to the French. No foreigner has ever won an award in Ligue 1, Joey, you are very good, but that doesn't mean you can break this convention. ”
Jiuli's words were very straightforward, which also made Zhao Yaning's face change a little.
"Ludovic, what do you mean by that? Are you saying that there is racial discrimination in the selection of such awards? Roundup asked, a little puzzled.
"Chris, you're not a kid anymore, it's time to grow up." Roten laughed, his tone was a little ridiculous, and he directly called Roundup's rǔ name, "You should know that when they say bullshit that everyone treats equally, they are simply talking nonsense." ”
"It's not nonsense, they really don't care much about skin, if you become a French citizen and are willing to serve the three sè flags, they may give you some opportunities." "But if it's for another country, it's going to be troublesome." ”
Several people were talking nonsense, which also made Zhao Yaning understand why the best newcomer in Ligue 1 has such an unspoken rule only for the French.
In Ligue 1, apart from the French, the most are Africans. The reason for the existence of such unspoken rules is actually aimed at Africans who play in Ligue 1.
And Zhao Yaning's luck is really not good enough, if it was before, although there are unspoken rules for this kind of thing, but if the performance is good enough, plus Monaco's status in Ligue 1 is high enough, and the media helps to talk, it is still possible. But in the early aftermath of 2002, it was a different story. In the 2002 World Cup, France lost 2-0 to Senegal – sadly, the Senegalese team is generally French and largely produced in Ligue 1.
At such times, I am afraid that the French will not consider giving their league prize to a foreigner. This kind of thing that cultivates foreign geniuses and ends up pitting themselves, if the French do it again, I am afraid that it will arouse public indignation.
"If you were French, I would think you were good enough to run for the best player in Ligue 1 now. But if you are a foreigner, then no matter how hard you try, you will not be able to get this honor. "And, if you're an American, you're still an Asian. They're definitely not going to open up to you. ”
Jiuli's words are even more malicious speculation.
But what he said is actually not unreasonable, anything involving the selection of journalists, the Football Association, etc., racial discrimination, nationality discrimination, these discrimination exist.
Latin players have always been extremely dominant in various selections. This is not unreasonable, after all, since the 70s, South American football has had an overwhelming technical advantage over European football, although European football can rely on tactics against South American football, but purely technically, compared to the technical players of South American football, there has always been a great distance.
Dutchman Michels created an all-out attack, counteracting the advantage of technical players with tactics. Later, although Germany lived through the Beckenbauer era, English football dominated the 80s, and the Italians used chain defense to create the glory of the mini-World Cup, in the end, a deep-seated notion has always been formed in people's minds: the technical ability of South American players is far superior to that of other countries.
Even in Europe, it is believed that the most skilled players are from Latin countries. Italian, Portuguese, and French players are always considered to be more skilled, while if a player is from England, Germany, the Netherlands, these countries, it is rarely considered to be the most skilled. Germans tend to be associated with willpower, the Dutch are often associated with their strong awareness, and England are often inseparable from the two types of speed strikers and versatile midfielders.
In addition to these countries, it is a little difficult to become a football superstar. The exceptions are not without exceptions, such as Eastern European players who tend to be looked down upon because of the impressive Yugoslavia. But this kind of exception often requires several times more effort than others. Other people can get all kinds of favor by relying on their own efforts in a season, while players from other countries, unless they have much better results than others, or have long-term stable performance, otherwise, if they just play like others, it will be difficult to get the same attention.
Spain, for example, is the biggest victim of this perception. As one of the five major leagues, Spain has one of the best leagues in the world, but because people have long had the impression of Spanish football as local sappers + foreign stars, it has also caused Spain to miss the Ballon d'Or for 50 years.
Raul in 2001 is the most typical example, he won the league title, the best shè in the Champions League, and also led the best shè in the league, scoring 45 goals in the year, which was second only to Ronaldo in those years, and his own team was also one of the strongest in Europe, Real Madrid, but in the selection, he also lost to Owen.
Even in Spain, you can imagine how difficult it is for people from other regions with no football tradition to gain recognition. For someone like Zhao Yaning from an underdeveloped football country, it is not enough to gain recognition in one or two seasons. Of course, if he can continue to play consistently for five or six seasons, or if he plays at an impressive level in a certain season, he can indeed get a lot of favor, but before that, if he wants to rely on his potential in exchange for attention, it will be questioned - has China ever produced good players? Does this land produce good players? How can a country without a football history have good players?
All these are his roadblocks. Unless he is extremely lucky, he will be questioned about all kinds of potential-related selections.
"If you're a Frenchman and you play a little badly, you'll have the best newcomer in your pocket. If you're a Brazilian, then if you can play at the level you are at, you can also take the title into your pocket. But if you're from Africa or Asia......" Gyuri shook his head, "then your chances of winning an award are basically zero." ”
These words made Zhao Yaning a little extremely frustrated. If he didn't do well enough, then he still had something to say, but since it was a matter of racial and national discrimination, then he had nothing to say.
He can't stand alone against the prejudices of a league or even a country.
What is especially hateful is that he can't even complain twice. That's the rule in football: all kinds of prejudices exist, they can, but they can only exist in private. You can think that blacks are stupid, you can think that South Americans are unprofessional, you can think that Asians are from the football desert, you can't do anything - you can think anything, it doesn't matter how you want to vote when you vote, but these thoughts can't be said. If someone dares to make these unspoken rules public, then he will be the unlucky one.
"I reckon that the last league rookie of the year will be Auxerre's Mex. Although Matisse is also good, as an offensive player, his play is much worse than Joey's. And Mex, after all, is a defensive player, and a defensive player doesn't need data to prove himself, and with his performance, give him the award of best newcomer, and no one can say anything. ”
Gyuli is still concerned about these issues, as he is also one of the candidates for the best player in Ligue 1. This season's Ligue 1 Player of the Year award was originally a nominee for Giuli, Pauletta, Sonny Anderson, Ronaldinho and other leaders of their respective clubs. However, because Lyon was beaten home and away by Monaco, Sonny Anderson's mediocre performance, coupled with his refusal to renew his contract, made him questionable and fell behind in the selection. And after Ronaldinho started in the second half of the season, he played less and less attentively, and he only cared about scandals with La Liga Premier League teams every day.
In the end, the only remaining judges were Pauletta and Giuli. It goes without saying that Giuli led Monaco to the top spot, while Pauletta's ability to stand out from the crowd in Ligue 1 has made him even more popular. It is not surprising who wins the best player of the two men, and the media also believes that if Monaco can really win the championship this season, then Gyuli's best player is basically decided. If you can't get it, that's when it depends on the situation.
"Forget it, these things are too troublesome, it's annoying to think about them, it's better to play seriously."
Compared with this kind of individual award competition, after all, it is more attractive to be a collective honor.
Thirty-one rounds have passed, and Monaco is still one point ahead of Lyon, with only seven rounds left, and for Monaco, the chances of winning the championship are still very good.
"There are pros and cons, if I were French, maybe I would have won the best newcomer in Ligue 1, but my reputation is just a new star. But I'm Chinese, it's different, I won this championship, and I became the first person in China to win the championship in the five major leagues, right? As long as I win this championship, the benefits and fame I can get in China are the best newcomers in Ligue 1, right?
That's enough. What is the best newcomer, and what is counted? It's just a bit of a name, and the most practical thing is the championship.
And now, what else can stop us from winning the championship?
------------------------
"We're broke."
In the office, the few people sitting around the table all had extremely ugly faces. The words that came out of the mouth of the club's president, Mr. Campora, were extremely difficult for them to accept.
"I'm going to tell the guys the news." Campora's words were very calm, but his words made Deschamps, who was sitting opposite him, jump up immediately, "Are you crazy, sir?" Tell the players that? Do you know what happens when you do this? They're going to lose the faith they had to get here, and we're going to lose the championship! ”
"But if they don't tell them, then they will have to be forced to accept the reality of the team's hasty sale of players at the end of the season, without the operation of agents, without their own investigation, maybe this transfer will affect them for the rest of their lives."
"But they can at least get this honor." Deschamps insisted.
"Didier, not everyone sees honor as their most important thing. Most people don't think about honor, they just think about income. There are more than fifty of us, those who want honor, and there are still opportunities, and I have to think about those who want money first. Didier, not everyone has your level and consciousness, you can't ask everyone to value only honor. I'll have to think about their future income, or they'll hate us in the future. Campola glanced at Deschamps, "I won't let any player hate us, because the relationship with the players is the only way for us to recover." ”ω· u(8) Update the fastest reading network
