Chapter 683 Can I not be in a hurry?

The World Association of Professional Players, referred to as FIFPro, is estimated that even some senior fans may not have heard of this organization, but it is a real international organization. There are 42 member professional players unions under it, and a total of nearly [-] professional players are members of this organization.

Since [-], the World Professional Players Association has started a selection of the best players of the season and the best team. In order to create differences and at the same time highlight their own advantages, they are different from the European Golden Globe Awards, World Footballer and World Football Magazine. The world's best players are all different.

Their selection method is a bit similar to the player of the season of the English Professional Players Association, that is, a voting list is sent to all members, and they choose the best and most outstanding player in the past season.

In other words, getting an honor is basically equivalent to being recognized by the vast majority of professional players in the world.

The history of this award is not long. It was born in [-]. The first two awards were given to Ronaldinho of Barcelona, ​​while the subsequent two awards were given to Yang Yang.

This organization also seems to have limited funds. It can't hold a grand awards show like the rich and powerful FIFA, and it can't cooperate with TV stations like the European Golden Globes. It can't even hold a small awards show like World Football.

Last year, I just sent the trophy to Liverpool, asked Liverpool officials to cooperate to take a few photos, and sent it back to them to post on the official website. Even if I won the award, it was even more shabby than some newspaper awards.

But this year looks a little better. Philippe Piatt, the chairman of the World Professional Players Association, came to Liverpool with the trophy himself. With the permission of Liverpool, he presented the award in the press conference hall in Melwood and arranged the scene a little bit. Gerrard also participated in receiving the award.

Yang Yang got the best player and was also shortlisted for the best team of the season, while Gerrard was the midfielder who was shortlisted for the best team of the season, so both of them got the award.

As for Liverpool's coach Benitez, he lost to Ferguson in the selection of the best coach award.

Although the Manchester United coach's Champions League win is a bit thrilling, it does reflect his coaching ability and has won the appreciation and affirmation of countless players, especially considering his coaching history and past records at Manchester United.

Many people say that the best player in the world selected by FIFPro is the wind vane of the two supreme awards in December. This is of course a reference, but it is not necessarily because Ronaldinho won this award in [-], but lost to Cannavaro in the end, and it has only been awarded three times in total, so it is not a reference.

But they came here to present the award with great intentions, and it was another worldwide trophy. Yang Yang also gave the opponent enough face, took advantage of the training intervals, took the rest time, and met the requirements of the opponent, and even specially accepted an exclusive interview with Philip Piatt and his assistant at the carefully arranged scene.

"I am very grateful to FIFPro for presenting this important award to me. At the same time, I would also like to thank you for your efforts and contributions to protecting the rights and interests of players over the past few years. I would also like to thank all the more than 5 professional players who voted in the world. Regardless of whether you choose me or not, I still thank you all because we are a big family."

For his award, Yang Yang said he would like to thank his teammates, coaches and all the staff in Liverpool and the national team, as well as his family and friends. He is honored to receive this award.

The trophy is quite big, but the workmanship is really average, and there is also an award certificate, which is also quite large.

Perhaps because of the cameo appearance, after asking many questions as usual, Philip Piatt and others asked about Yang Yang's transfer in summer, because there was a lot of noise about Yang Yang's transfer to Barcelona at that time, but in the end it didn't matter.

This question is indeed very sensitive. If it was asked by other reporters, Yang Yang would definitely not answer it.

But this time, he thought about it for a while, still maintaining a smile, saying that many times the transfer is not decided by himself, it involves many, many aspects, and it really can't be explained clearly for a while.

"What I want to say is that I am very, very happy to stay in Liverpool. I like this team, the fans here, and the city, including the two rows of peach trees in front of my house. I don't think about anything now. The only thing I want to do is to play hard for Liverpool. I believe we can achieve a good result this season."

Afterwards, Yang Yang answered a few more questions from the other party, and then ended the award presentation this time.

From the beginning to the end, Yang Yang maintained a kind smile, and was not angry because of the other party's offense. This is the most basic etiquette and demeanor.

So much so that after sending Philip Piatt away, Gerrard shook his head and smiled wryly.

"I'm really worried you're going to jump up."

"Not at all." Yang Yang smiled. He guessed that the other party was also trying to create a gimmick and increase some attention.

And I heard that after they presented the awards in Liverpool, they would go to nearby Manchester to Manchester United's Carrington training base to present awards to Ronaldinho, Ferguson and Ferdinand.

Ferguson is the best coach of the year, Ronaldinho and Ferdinand are shortlisted for the best team of the year.

"Tell me, if they ask Cristiano the same question, what will they look like?" Yang Yang suddenly thought curiously, and the more he thought about it, the more funny he felt.

…………

…………

In the afternoon, in the western suburbs of Manchester, Manchester United's Carrington training base.

Just as he sent off Philippe Piat and others, Cristiano Ronaldo opened the large and thick book in front of him. In fact, there was nothing in it, only a certificate that was ridiculed by Yang Yang as a three-good student award in elementary school.

It is said to be a certificate, but it is actually nothing, except that the name is written in a very large size. It is probably for taking pictures. You should at least get a leather case or something. It looks better, and it will not be as shabby as it is now, right?

Seeing the bitter expression of the Portuguese, Ferguson and Ferdinand couldn't help being a little amused.

Ronaldinho was holding back just now, because the other party also asked about his summer transfer, and he asked in front of Ferguson, which is really a bit inappropriate.

But people are here to give awards, so it's not easy to accuse them face to face, right?

"What's going on recently?" The Portuguese was a little irritable.

The main reason is that he has indeed been a little unhappy recently.

The ankle surgery in the summer went well, but the recovery was very slow. As a result, he missed the team's summer preparations, and even missed the first few rounds of the new season, and he hasn't played well yet.

It's the end of October, and the awards season will be in one month. Ronaldinho is very worried.

The more you worry, the more anxious you become, and the more anxious you become, the less you can type.

"MD, if I knew they awarded the best player to Yang Yang, I wouldn't have come to accept the award. I just found a reason to get over it." The Portuguese was still aggrieved.

"Don't be so irritable, and don't put too much pressure on yourself. Sometimes maintaining a normal mind will make it easier for you to find the state." Ferguson comforted.

Little Luo looked at his mentor, and really wanted to refute, can I not be in a hurry?

But in the end, he held back.

In front of Ferguson, he didn't dare to be too messy, because he knew that Ferguson didn't have a good temper.

"It's strange to say that recently, the official overseas TV station of the Premier League has been doing Yang Yang's program every day, and it keeps blowing him up. I heard the news from the tabloids before, and I heard that Yang Yang spent money." Ferdinand said.

"Spending money?" Xiao Luo was a little surprised.

Now is a sensitive time, but he is very concerned about any news about Yang Yang.

"Last year, Yang Yang fought against Kaka, and the whole Fleet Street supported him, but this year is different. He is fighting against you this year. There are still many media in Fleet Street that support you. So it is reported that Yang Yang spent money on the Premier League channel to buy exposure."

Speaking of this, Ferdinand curled his lips, but he couldn't see whether he believed it or not.

Ronaldinho was lost in thought, apparently analyzing the authenticity of this matter, and he felt that it was indeed necessary to have a good chat with his agent Mendes, at least to do something.

"Don't think too much about it. It's the official TV station of the Premier League. IMG is responsible for the management and operation. As long as you perform well, you don't need to buy it at all. They will praise you for free. The fact is that as early as last year, the Premier League channel has been promoting Yang Yang. But before and after the winter break, if you performed better, they immediately turned to praise you."

After Ferguson finished speaking, he looked at Ronaldinho and Ferdinand, motioned them not to think too much, then turned and left.

The so-called head coach of the season of the World Professional Players Association is not in his eyes at all. Accepting the award and accepting interviews are just to avoid offending the other party.

"The old man is right. If you want to fight, you have to come out in a better state." Ferdinand also encouraged.

Cristiano Ronaldo secretly groaned in his heart, why didn't he know?
I don't know why, but this season he always feels as if his whole body has been taken out. He can't get back the hunger and passion for the game that broke out in the second half of last season, and he always feels a little bit unmotivated.

In fact, his performance this season is also good. He played four rounds in the league and scored two goals and two assists. He played three rounds in the Champions League and scored one goal. He scored three goals and two assists in seven rounds. This report card is really good for him.

But compared with the crazy goals in the second half of last season, it is still much inferior.

But Yang Yang is like a stable robot. So far this season, the Premier League has scored [-] goals and [-] assists, and the Champions League has also scored [-] goals and [-] assists.

There is a saying that is true, there is no harm without comparison.

It is precisely because Yang Yang's performance is too dazzling that it contrasts with Cristiano Ronaldo's performance is too shabby.

However, Liverpool will play Chelsea away next, which is a tough battle.

Scolari's team has always been very good at defending. The last time Ronaldinho failed at Stamford Bridge, this time it is estimated that Yang Yang will also suffer.

It would be a good thing if he could interrupt his scoring state.

The Portuguese secretly looked forward to it.
