winning hand

Looking at Yaya Toure who raised the question, Li Bin also noticed his uneasiness. He knew that he had to have a good chat with Yaya Toure. This big man with a dull personality had always been something he valued very much.

He doesn't talk much and has a relatively silent temperament, but if such a person has problems, he will be in greater trouble. Since he has problems, it is natural to pay attention to them.

"We can really talk about this issue in detail. In fact, I have also noticed that you are not in a good state recently."

Li Bin's words made Yaya raise her head, but she just glanced at Li Bin and lowered her head, "I will continue to work hard."

"I believe this, but how to work hard is a question. Yaya, sit down, maybe we can chat slowly." Li Bin sat down on the edge of the training ground and patted the lawn next to it. Yaya hesitated.

After a while, he still sat next to Li Bin.

"Tell me, you've been here for so long. What do you think of Parma?"

Yaya raised his head, as if looking at the sky, but without focus. This was not the topic he wanted to talk about. To Li Bin's question, he just nodded and agreed, "It's okay, the climate is very good, better than Belgium."

, as for other things, it’s not much different from Belgium.”

“Is it very different from Côte d’Ivoire?”

This question made Yaya laugh, "Head, Africa and Europe are two different worlds. Everything there is unimaginable to people here."

"I have been to Africa several times, and I know a little about it. It is indeed very difficult." Li Bin nodded, "Did you encounter anything unpleasant when you returned to China this time? After returning from the national team, you felt a little uncomfortable.

It feels right."

"Head, I just feel a lot of pressure." Yaya lowered his head and unconsciously picked up the grass on the ground. "When I was playing in Africa, I was the top star in the team. In Belgium, I was also a member of the team.

A rising star. But when I was in England, I failed the trial, and then when I arrived in Italy, I suddenly discovered that my talent was not necessarily better than others. I felt a little..."

"disappointment?"

Yaya shook her head, "It's fear. I think my talent may not be as strong as I imagined. In Africa and Belgium, I felt that my ability and potential were among the best, but when I arrived in Italy, I saw the

After meeting my teammates, I thought maybe that wasn't the case, and I was afraid, maybe Mr. Wenger was right."

During his time at Parma, he met a group of players with the most potential. Melo, Rossi, Arshavin, Milito and even Tudor. The existence of these people made Yaya Toure feel that his pretentious ability was also

Not so outstanding anymore.

As for skills, although his skills are very good, he is not very good at the midfielder position. He has good skills in ball control, passing, dribbling, and long-range shooting, but his basic skills in this position are

He was considered to be unqualified in terms of positioning and tackling. As for his concentration and game state, the team believed that they needed to be improved.

Compared with him, Melo's luck almost completely overwhelmed him. Physical fitness, technical ability, running, covering area, these tasks have been done well, and Melo has been sent to Real Madrid. And Parma's new Kai

Ta's skills were very comprehensive, which made him somewhat self-conscious, and Motta's organizational talent was much better than him. These people gave Toure a big blow.

A defensive midfielder like Tachinadi convinced Toure, but it did not scare him. It was the accumulation of experience and the sharpening of skills. Toure believed that he could reach that point one day. However, Mei

Luo, De Jong, Keita, Motta, there are endless good players around him, which made him suddenly realize that he might not be special.

This makes Yaya a little frustrated. For defensive players such as midfielders, defensive positioning, interception and steals are basic skills, while physical fitness is hardware, ball control, ball distribution, and long-range shooting are gradually supplemented. Momo's

His physical fitness and basic skills are not major problems. Although he is poor in ball control and shooting, he is still young after all. In time, although he cannot be expected to become Vieira, growing into a qualified defensive midfielder is definitely not a problem.

But how Yaya herself should grow has become a huge problem.

Although he never admitted it, he was deeply troubled by Wenger's refusal to join Arsenal. Although he had been comforting himself that it was not his problem, it was only after arriving in Serie A that he realized that his problem was very big.

The physical fitness that he was proud of was not the best, and his dream of being ranked second in Vieira was repeatedly hit, making Yaya feel extremely confused about his future.

No wonder Professor Wenger looks down on himself. Compared with the sense of position and focused training that his brother has been working hard for, his work seems helpless and ridiculous in high-level confrontations. He once laughed at his brother for not paying attention to the cultivation of offensive ability.

I only know how to practice defense, and I will never get a high salary no matter what. But now it seems that I am the stupid one. The competition in football is so fierce and cruel, and I am really naive enough to think that a few tricks can help me.

Earn a good salary?

This is what the coach often says, it's very silly and naive.

If the defense is not up to standard, he will never be able to become a qualified Vieira. Good technique is his advantage, but that is not the most important part after all. Besides, it is not that there are defensive midfielders with good organizational talents, but those defensive midfielders

His name is Redondo, Albertini, Guardiola, no matter what, it is impossible for him to be a tall and thick black man.

"Yaya, I have never paid attention to your psychological problems before. I have always felt that you are a real man. You are different from Arshavin. He is a sensitive and artistic person who likes to have a little emotion, but you are a

A real man, a man who can truly withstand the wind and rain, will not care about this... Maybe, I was wrong."

"You are not wrong." Toure immediately answered. He has always considered himself a strong person, and he did not allow others to doubt this. "Of course I am a man, but...well, I was just excited for the moment.

It’s nothing actually, forget what I said, I’m not worried about my future.”

"No, since we started talking, let's talk about it. I think there may be a reason why you are worried about the future. I remember you said that your biggest dream is to become Vieira - Yaya, why do you always

Do you think you will be Vieira in the future?"

Yaya immediately answered this question, "My brother said I am. And my coach has always taught me this, no matter which one. They told me that I will be the best defensive midfielder in the future, and I will be Patrick.

·No one can compare to me as a defensive midfielder like Vieira - isn't Vieira the best black player? Of course I hope to be him. I only lose, maybe it's not like that, but I will try my best.

.”

Maybe he is not Vieira. Patrick Vieira will not be accused of not playing defense seriously, will not be considered a softie, will not be ridiculed for not knowing how to defend a position. Patrick Vieira will not

Being considered an idiot who only knows how to play tricks, he won't be yelled at by the coach.

But he is definitely a good player.

He has never forgotten his dream of becoming a good player. He has always believed that he will be the best player in the world. He will not give up this dream easily.

"Yaya, I don't know if you have been told that besides Vieira, there are many other outstanding black players, such as Gullit and Rijkaard."

Yaya turned back to look at Li Bin, and after a long time she said, "Boss, I don't want to make a joke."

Yes, just kidding. This was Yaya's first reaction. I'm afraid no matter who it is, they will feel this way when they hear the coach comparing themselves with Rijkaard, Gullit and Van Basten.

When Gullit debuted, he was considered to be comparable to Maradona. Even if he experienced serious injuries, he could still create the Milan dynasty. And Rijkaard was the first defensive midfielder in the true sense.

Comparing yourself to them? That's a joke.

Although Vieira is excellent, he is a target that can be chased after all. But the Dutch Three Musketeers are legendary figures. No one would have such an idea. How many years have the Argentines called for the second Maradona, but they found

It's just one joke after another. Claiming that your target is the Three Musketeers of the Netherlands? That's what a fool does.

"I'm not kidding, I think the direction of your efforts is Gullit, not Vieira."

Gullit?

That World Footballer, Ballon d'Or winner, Bishop of the Milan dynasty, a player who was once considered qualified to rival Maradona, Gullit?

Isn't this a joke?

"Actually, Gullit is quite similar to you. He can play most positions on the court, just like you. Although his physical fitness is excellent, after suffering serious injuries, it is not considered to be top-notch.

His defensive awareness is not as good as Rijkaard's, his ball-handling skills are far behind Maradona, and his offensive ability is not as good as that of Platini and Zico of the same era. However, he is the best player in football history.

One of the better players, you know why?"

"Why?" Yaya asked, following Li Bin.

"First, work hard. Yaya, you must learn to work hard. In any game, at any moment, you must go all out to win, instead of letting your mood participate in defense, or thinking about how to show your strength from time to time.

Footwork."

"Secondly, Gullit's skills without any shortcomings are also another aspect. In this aspect, you have potential, but you need to further strengthen. In this aspect, I will arrange a coaching staff to help you."

"Then again, of course it's your character. Gullit has an extremely outstanding character, tough, calm, and domineering. That's the character of a leader. Of course, organizing the national team to cause trouble is his bad side. In this respect,

, he is worse than Platini. But better than Matthäus.

——In addition to these, the key is you, you do not have the temperament of a leader. The most important thing for a comprehensive player is to get the support of the whole team. You can always form local cooperation with your teammates to achieve local advantages. In this way

Only then can you help others while getting help from others.”

Li Bin told him his expectations for him, and Yaya Toure gradually regained his confidence.

Li Bin knew that his confusion was just a temporary loss of control. What he needed to give him was great confidence. Therefore, he might as well paint the picture bigger. Can Toure really catch up with Gullit? Li Bin

He didn't know if he could succeed if he tried, but he knew that if he didn't try, Toure would definitely not succeed.

"Yaya, you have to understand one thing: real men will not be intimidated by difficulties, let alone be defeated by difficulties. We can experience setbacks and failures, but no matter how many failures we have, they are just steps on our way to success.

Paving stones. Believe in yourself and you will always succeed. They

It is true that they are your competitors, but they are also your whetstone. Whether you are sharpened by them or you sharpen them depends on you. I have always felt that you are a man and will not

If you fall down easily, please tell me with your actions that I did not choose the wrong person."
