Football's hand covers the sky

Chapter 323 Perfection

Gianluigi Buffon made his Serie A debut at the age of 17, secured his position as the starting goalkeeper at the age of 19, and broke the record of the goalkeeper's transfer value at the age of 23. To this day, there is still no goalkeeper who has broken Buffon's transfer value record.

In the past ten years of his career, Buffon has been in the top three in the world for a long time, and was even recognized as the world's number one goalkeeper for a long time.

Li Shou officially joined a professional football club at the age of 20, became the main goalkeeper at the age of 21, and moved to the Premier League giants Arsenal for 22 euros at the age of 2000.

In the season of transferring to the Premier League, he has only conceded one goal so far. He is the best goalkeeper in world football this season, none of them.

In the world of football, goalkeepers rarely become the focus and protagonist of a game, but this does not apply to Li Shou. Since Li Shou joined Arsenal and became the starter, Li Shou has always been the focus and even the protagonist on the field.

As for Buffon, he may not be able to attract as much attention as Li Shou, but as the best goalkeeper in the past ten years, his status does not need to be described.

Therefore, in the upcoming knockout round of the Champions League, fans from all over Europe and even the world are attracted. After all, the Champions League is a feast for fans all over the world, and its influence is higher than that of the five major leagues.

"Buffon is a great goalkeeper. I am honored to be able to compete with a great goalkeeper." Li Shou rarely introduced interviews before the game, but this time Li Shou expressed his respect for Buffon.

On the second day after Li Shou expressed his respect for Buffon, Buffon also accepted an interview with "Torino Sport", which even attracted great attention.

"It's not fair to compare me to Libby," said Buffon in the face of questions from "Turino Sport" columnist Oscar Roll.

"Unfair?" Rol suddenly became in a mood.

"It's unfair to me." Hearing this, Erol looked disappointed. What Luoer thought was that Buffon was going to do something, but in the end he praised his opponent.

"That's right." Luo Er nodded. After all, Buffon and Li Shou are 14 years apart in age.

"Hey~~ man, I'm not talking about age, although I'm 37 years old now, but I think I'm still in good shape." Buffon doesn't seem to think he's old.

"Then what unfairness are you referring to?" Luo Er asked curiously.

"Actually, I knew about Li's existence more than two years ago," Buffon said, which surprised Rolle.

"More than two years ago? At that time, Li should have been in Li Shou, right?" Luo Er obviously knew about Li Shou.

"Yes, I received a call more than two years ago, do you know Mr. Pellizzaro?" Buffon asked suddenly.

"I know, a goalkeeper coach who once played for Juventus" Pellizzaro is actually quite famous in Italy.

"Yes, Mr Pelizzaro called me one day and said he had found a goalkeeper who was almost perfect and talented," Buffon said.

"Perfect?" As a reporter, Rolle caught the key words in Buffon's words.

To describe a player, words such as excellent or top are generally used, such as goalkeeper, an excellent goalkeeper, a top goalkeeper, but a perfect goalkeeper has never been described like this.

"Yes, perfect, in my opinion, Lee is a perfect goalkeeper," Buffon confirmed with a penalty kick.

"Can you tell me what it takes to be a perfect goalkeeper?" Rolle asked excitedly, who is Buffon, one of the best goalkeepers in the past ten years, and has occupied the position of the world's number one goalkeeper for a long time.

"Prediction, reaction and instant explosive power" Buffon stretched out three fingers.

After Buffon said these three conditions, Rolle immediately understood the meaning of Buffon's words. Anticipation can help the goalkeeper occupy the position in advance and easily resolve some shots. However, there are too many accidents and uncertainties in football matches, which requires the goalkeeper's response. However, no matter how fast the reaction is, it needs explosive support.

"There are many goalkeepers who are good at anticipating and reacting, and I am one of them," Buffon said.

"Explosive power prevents all goalkeepers from going further." Rolle understood what Buffon meant.

"Yes, the human body is always limited and limited, and some things cannot be achieved with hard work." Speaking of this, Buffon showed a trace of envy on Li Shou's face.

Some things require talent, but some things can be acquired through hard work, but there are some things that don't mean hard work.

Buffon's interview has aroused great attention, and Li Shou is undoubtedly the focus of this attention. Anyone who likes football knows Buffon, but Li Shou is now crowned with the word "perfect" by the former world's number one goalkeeper.

"Although Li is a perfect goalkeeper, I believe that my teammates can break through the goal guarded by Li, and I will not give up easily." This is what Buffon said at the end of the interview, but obviously, everyone's focus is not on this.

"No, I still have a lot of shortcomings." Facing Buffon's title of "perfect goalkeeper", Li Shou said that it is impossible to be unhappy, but Li Shou would not admit it to the public.

Regardless of whether Li Shoucheng admits it or not, Buffon's remarks have won the support of many people, especially goalkeepers. Li Shou's instant explosive power is indeed the envy of all goalkeepers.

There are many goalkeepers with excellent reactions and predictions. Basically, the current top goalkeepers are not bad in this regard, but their instant explosive power is far from being comparable to Li Shou.

Because of Buffon's remarks, Wenger also talked to Li Shou once. The Arsenal head coach was afraid that this was Buffon's flattery. Especially after the English media joined, things seemed to be developing in an uncontrollable direction.

You know, the English media is the best in Europe in terms of praise, and I don't know how many geniuses in England have fallen for the praise of the English media.

"Head, although I am very happy to be praised as the number one goalkeeper, I don't think I can really afford the word perfect, but I will work hard to become a truly "perfect" goalkeeper." Li Shou looked directly at Wenger and said seriously.

Li Shou himself knows best, because Li Shou still has many attributes given by the system that Li Shou has not fully trained. Maybe Li Shou will be truly perfect when he reaches the full value of the attributes that day.

Wenger was worried about finding Li Shou, and his teammates kept teasing Li Shou for this title. However, all of this had little impact on Li Shou, because Li Shou had his own goal. As long as Li Shou firmly moved towards this goal, everything along the way would only be motivation rather than resistance.
