248 Gratitude

"Coach, my cruciate ligament is torn, does that mean my life is over?" When Li Bin walked into the ward, he saw Rossi lying on the bed with a face that usually looked quite arrogant.

on, now pale and calm, expressionless.

He already knew the extent of his injury, and he also knew what he meant by saying that. As a football player, he knew very well what things would take away his health from him. Li Bin was worried about him, but after all, Li Bin still

As an outsider, Rossi, as a person involved, was not only worried, but even a little desperate.

This kind of despair made Li Bin not know how to deal with it for a while.

"Who said that? It's just a minor injury and it will recover quickly."

"Coach, are you lying to me? I don't know what kind of injury is a torn cruciate ligament? How can anyone successfully recover to full condition after suffering such an injury?"

His words made Li Bin not know what to say. He sat beside Rossi's bed and spoke after a while, "There are many people who can recover. Gullit suffered this."

Didn’t the injury recover? Ronaldo suffered two serious ligament injuries, but didn’t he also win the Ballon d’Or? You have nothing to worry about..."

"Before Gullit was injured, he was as famous as Maradona, but after the injury, he downgraded. Can Ronaldo play the same before and after the 2002 World Cup? Since the 2002 World Cup, he has even won the Golden Ball.

The chances of being in the top ten of the award are gone, and it’s obviously not as good as before.”

Rossi's retort left Li Bin speechless. After a long time, he sighed and spoke again, "If I had known, I wouldn't have said so much to you before."

"Li, you want me to pay attention to training and stay away from injuries, I know that. But it seems that I want to stay away from him, and he doesn't want to stay away from me." Rossi raised his head, his eyes seemed a little confused, "Li,

Now I understand what you said, why didn't you let me go to Manchester United? I have never been a forward with good luck and good ability. I have a little talent, but other than this little talent, I don't have enough luck.

.a game,

I just wanted to score a hat trick, but someone kicked me directly to the hospital bed, and the season was canceled. Such luck... I still have you to take care of me. Wanqi gives us daily nutritious meals and pays attention to health care, but I still

I couldn't guarantee my health, so I went to England and ate fish and chips every day. I'm not sure what I would be like. Maybe this is my destiny, and I shouldn't be a star. I have to be mediocre and achieve nothing in my life."

Li Bin pursed his lips. He couldn't say anything like you will get better. Rossi is also a player. Such a placebo, like boiled water, is of no use. But seeing Rossi's current virtue, he really felt sorry for him.

. He took a deep breath, cleared his thoughts, and then said, "Giuseppe, you should understand that a torn cruciate ligament is very harmful to a player."

It is said that the biggest damage is the damage to his speed. However, losing speed does not mean that a player is completely finished. You can regard this matter as a disaster, but if he is allowed to be like this

It would be inappropriate to knock you down. Don’t you think Ronaldo, Gullit and others have changed a lot? Well, let’s give another example, Raul

At the end of 2005, I tore my cruciate ligament in the El Clasico, so I rested for more than half a year and almost missed the World Cup. You know this, right?"

At the end of 2025, Raul tore his cruciate ligament due to an excessive tackle in Real Madrid's match against Barcelona and was bedridden for more than half a year. After that, he almost didn't make it in time to participate in the 2006 World Cup.

, although he caught up in the end, it also left some very bad reputations. Rossi naturally knew these things, but Rossi had his own doubts.

"Raul...he doesn't have speed to begin with."

"Yes, he is not a player who relies on speed to play, so after he was seriously injured, he could recover. Moreover, this season, he has reached the second peak of his career. So,

, why can't you use as little speed as possible when playing football? Giuseppe, sometimes when we watch football, we may not pay much attention to some issues. In fact, if you think about it carefully, real top players have

How many people have succeeded in becoming the number one in the world by relying on their own speed and explosive power?"

Rossi immediately frowned and wanted to retort, but when the words came to his lips, he couldn't say anything.

Ronaldo? He was indeed very fast in 1998, but his skills tended to become more mature after 2002. People recognized that he was strong in ability, but he was good in both the club and the national team. At the same time, there was a better Zidane and Robben.

?His speed is indeed very fast, but in various award selections, his

His status has always been very low. He is recognized in the football world as a person with a low football intelligence. His playing style is too lame and he is not smart enough. There are always a lot of fast horse players in the world, but it can be said that his injuries rely on his speed to achieve fame...

...Maybe Henry is one, but Henry has never won a Ballon d'Or.

In the evaluation of football players, speed is a very important item. Many people also believe that speed is necessary to become a good player. But in fact, if you know more about football, you will realize that many players do not have speed.

, he still played very well. To put it more realistically, players who really rely on speed have a high starting point, but the end point is often not that good.

When it comes to speed, the fastest among players are probably Ronaldo and Robben. However, Ronaldo’s lifelong club honors can be said to be shabby. Robben is not the boss in his own club, and the real

Irving is the one who has achieved results by relying on his speed to become the boss of the club. However, Irving's Ballon d'Or is known as the most prestigious one, and his so-called club honors that year were also a bunch of nobody.

It's just a trophy.

"It's fast. In a football match, the biggest achievement is just to get a counterattack opportunity. And you know, in a true duel at the highest level, counterattack opportunities are very few. Positional battles are always at a high level.

The most common scene in football, how to fight positional warfare well is the key to playing football.

Key. Young people play football and like to go fast. They feel that running at a lightning speed makes them feel relaxed and happy. It is much more enjoyable than using their brains to figure out coordination in a small area. However, you also know that if you encounter an opponent who can't defend, no matter how fast you are,

What's the use of being fast? Everyone is willing to have a Zidane who is as slow as a snail, but one

What is the lightning-fast Walcott without the place in England? Giuseppe, you regard injuries as torture, but rather as a kind of tempering: from now on,

You can no longer rely on speed to play football, but this can also stimulate you to use more skills to play football. You have potential in this area.

Strength can go a long way in this area. I have been thinking about how to persuade you to use less speed and more technology. Now that you are injured and your speed has dropped, it may be a good thing. Young people always

I don’t like to use my brain, but now you have to use your brain, isn’t that a good thing?”

Being fast, on the football field, is used to take advantage during counterattacks. Facing a large blank space, a fast forward can run hard. But apart from counterattacks, being fast is of no use. For top teams,

The duel has always been said to be an unnamed game in the competition, which makes people

There are very few opportunities to counterattack, so speed players are not very outstanding. Even Kaka, who is in the spotlight now, is a representative of extraordinary speed, but his long-range shooting and passing abilities are also very good.

Yes, even though we suffered a loss during the positional battle, there was nothing we could do about it.

It is precisely because of this that Li Bin told Rossi bluntly: Speed ​​is useless. That thing is used to increase the presence during duels between low-level teams. In top-level duels, no matter how fast you run, it is difficult to have an effect.

of.

Of course, this is a bit one-sided: Even in positional battles, explosive power is very useful. Unless you have Zidane's level of skills and body, it will be difficult to play well without explosive power. However, in front of Rossi, Li

Bin Ke won't mention those things.

"I will arrange new training for you. Your vision and ball control have been greatly improved recently, and your shooting skills have also been honed. With so many skills, even if your speed drops, what does it matter?

The big deal? You can still play well and you will still be the best player in Italy in the future, there is no doubt about it."

Rossi looked at Li Bin, and after a while, he shook his head, "Li, actually, just tell me that the current injury is highly likely to be cured."

"But do you believe it?"

"I will choose to believe it."

Do you really want to grasp the last straw?

"Giuseppe, sometimes, I think you know it, sometimes I will lie to you. But please believe me, whether I lie to you or scold you, the final purpose is still for your good.

.What I said is also that I hope you can go further and further in your football career and become more and more successful.

The better. I can tell you that you will definitely be able to recover, but that is the best case scenario. If you fail to achieve it, it will have a great impact on you. So, I will still tell you the worst case scenario, but,

Even in the worst-case scenario, you can still play well, right?"

Rossi nodded, "Yes, I know. Li, actually, when you spoke just now, I was thinking: I really have nothing to worry about."

"Why?"

"Because you are here." Rossi replied, "I have never been a very obedient good boy. I have hooked up with Manchester United and been involved with the top three in the north. Sometimes I refuse to listen to everything you say.

, I have been making you angry and causing you trouble. I am not loyal to the team and I don’t respect you enough.

But you have always been kind to me. Now, I am injured and the problem is very serious. But when I know that you have not given up helping me, I feel that since you are willing to help me, then I will definitely be able to recover. You help

I have overcome so many difficulties, and I will definitely be able to help me overcome them this time.”

Li Bin looked at him with a smile, but said nothing more.

"Li, I'm sorry."

"What happened again?"

"I was too disobedient in the past. People say that patients are the most helpless, and maybe it's true. As I was lying here, thinking about the past, I suddenly realized that if Palma gave up on me, I would

There must be no way out. Only then did I realize that you always helped me in the past and how much you helped me. Only then did I realize how lucky I am to have met you."

"Stupid kid, I'm the coach, how could I not help you? Take good care of your injuries, heal them, and then repay me with your playing skills." Li Bin touched his head, "It's a good thing to know how to be grateful.

But don’t lose your pride because of this. Don’t worry, Giuseppe, there is a place for you in Parma. Come back with your pride. Don’t worry, injuries will not defeat you so easily!”
