i want to be king

Chapter 100 The death of genius
Receiving long passes, especially long-distance long passes over 30 meters, belongs to the category of basic skills of professional players.

In the case of no interference, if you can't stop a 30-meter long pass with one foot stably, this is definitely not a professional player with solid basic skills.

But if it is defensive player interference, or moving at high speed, if you want to stop a 30-meter long pass, and you have to stop with one kick, this is quite skillful.

Albertini is a defensive midfielder with a relatively deep position. If he directly instigates a counterattack after taking the ball and hits the back with a long pass, the distance must be more than 30 meters. However, Sudong advances at high speed and must stop the ball with one kick before he has a chance to complete the next move.

But it seems that Su Dong's performance was not up to standard when he trained with Albertini for the first time.

……

"Two problems, first, the judgment of the ball path is not accurate."

Albertini pointed out the problems Sudong exposed when he received the ball.

"This is caused by many reasons, such as you are not familiar with my pass, the timing is not in place, etc., but there are also many factors on your own, and the judgment of the ball path still needs to be further improved, so as to adapt to various passes on the court."

"The second problem is that the unloading force is not clever enough when stopping the ball. This is also very important, especially when receiving a long pass. If the unloading force is not in place, the ball will not stop stably at all. Sometimes you even have to stop the ball with a second foot. This will miss the best time."

As the saying goes, as soon as an expert makes a move, he will know if there is any.

Albertini is a master of long passes. After practicing with Su Dong for about ten minutes, he immediately pointed out the two most serious problems of Su Dong in receiving long passes.

"Actually, it can be seen from your stoppage that your basic skills are very solid, and you have been working hard to avoid bouncing the ball. This is worthy of recognition, but you still need to continue to strengthen your practice. Receiving long passes is also one of the basic skills of a center forward."

If the long pass bounces after hitting the ground, the speed of the ball will be faster and it will be more difficult to control. This is the basis.

Su Dong was convinced and asked, "Demi, will you practice more every afternoon from now on?"

"Of course." Albertini smiled.

Su Dong got a satisfactory answer and nodded with a smile.

……

"You're asking too much of him, Demy."

After Su Dong walked away and ran to continue training with Pepe and Ronnie, Andre Cruz came to Albertini's side and said with a smile.

"Is it tall?" Albertini asked back, "I think it's average."

Andre Crews shook his head with a wry smile, isn't this guy in need of a beating?
"You are right. He does have great potential. Not only his body, but also his running position and game input, and his technical characteristics are also very comprehensive. This is really quite good. You know, on the court, if you want to be a core player, you must be comprehensive, otherwise you will definitely be strangled to death by the opponent."

"The higher the level of the game, the greater the intensity, the higher the comprehensive requirements for the players, and the core players must be a level higher."

Of course Andre Cruz knows this, but this is precisely why he is optimistic about Su Dong.

"He is still relatively immature and needs more games to hone. For now, he has good potential, but compared with Kluivert, he is still far behind, especially when receiving long passes. Even Kluivert in Milan is top-notch in this respect."

"Also, his left foot has started to hinder his overall development."

Andre Cruz had to admit that Albertini was really good at knowing people.

"I don't deny what you said, but you should also pay attention to that he also has flashes that Kluivert doesn't have. For example, his speed, such a height with such a speed, is amazing, and his diligence. The most important thing is his concentration. We all know that Kluivert was destroyed by himself."

Back then, Kluivert, who became famous as a teenager, was invincible on the court, but he was also a troublemaker off the court.

He once had a car accident, killed someone, and was arrested for speeding shortly afterwards. This made him spurned by Dutch fans, especially in [-], a Dutch woman sued Kluivert and three friends.

It was precisely because of this case that Kluivert left the Apennines and joined AC Milan.

At that time, it happened that AC Milan did not pick up new and old players, the locker room was chaotic, and Kluivert failed to meet the expectations of the fans in Milan.

A generation of geniuses fell, and even after switching to Barcelona, ​​they failed to repeat the courage of the year.

Andre Kruse is right, Kluivert is more ruined by his youthful and frivolous hands.

"Professional football is a vanity fair. Andrei, the more famous you are, the more temptations you will have around you. His test has just begun."

Albertini is a veteran, and a very successful veteran at that, he has experienced all the storms of professional football.

"What about yours?" Andre Cruz asked back.

"So, you see, I'm also practicing more, you think I'm free to help you train that kid?"

Having said that, Albertini turned his head to look at Su Dong, feeling uncertain.

In Sporting Lisbon's current striker lineup, Jardl is the natural starter. Nikule is a club with a lot of money to introduce, and at the same time he is the confidant of coach Boloni. He must be ranked second, and Sudong can only be ranked third.

This is very embarrassing.

Strictly speaking, there will not be too many opportunities and time for the third center to play, especially when the first two centers are not injured or sick, they are more likely to play in some garbage time.

Su Dong's situation may be better, but not much better.

Andre Cruz followed Albertini's eyes and noticed Su Dong who was training with Ronnie and Pepega. He also clearly knew the current difficulties Su Dong faced, but unlike Albertini, he was more optimistic.

"Trust me, this kid is always up for surprises!"

"I hope so," murmured Albertini.

…………

…………

Albertini's joining caused a wave of excitement, and even a lot of European media came to Lisbon for interviews, but it passed quickly because Ronaldo was about to join Real Madrid.

This caused an uproar all over the world, stealing all the limelight.

As the most dazzling star in the World Cup, Ronaldo's every move has attracted the attention of the world, and his conflict with Inter Milan coach Cooper is even more obvious, and it is not surprising to leave the team.

After introducing the two superstars Figo and Zidane for two consecutive years, Real Madrid has locked its eyes on Ronaldo. This is absolutely normal, and it also makes the media and fans all over the world excited.

Su Dong is equally excited, because Ronaldo is his idol.

If the Brazilian superstar really comes to Madrid, it will be much more convenient to watch the football from Lisbon.

Ronnie didn't like it, and he didn't even think about going to Madrid to watch the game.

This is mainly because he is also called Ronaldo.

It's just that, in order to distinguish him from Ronaldo and Ronaldo Jr., many people call him Ronaldo Jr.

Some even call him Mini Luo.

This is really uncomfortable for Ronnie, who has machismo.

It's as if Su Dong resisted the nickname "Little God of War" in his bones.

……

Returning to Lisbon from Madeira, Su Dong and Ronnie seemed to just change places for training.

They still get up early in the morning to train, they still have to practice one hour of yoga every day, they still have to go to the gym every day, and they still have to practice for a long time after training every day...

This is already a habit for them.

Unlike last season, Jardl is no longer staying to work on their shooting.

After the Brazilian striker went through the peak of last season, he seems to be unable to adjust his state this season.

In their place are André Cruz, Pepe and Albertini.

The five of them always stay behind after the training, and make up a small half of the court to practice by themselves.

Nikule also stayed for additional training, but he declined the invitation of Andre Cruz and still chose to be alone.

It can be seen that after the serious injury last season, the Romanian center is also eager to express himself in the new season, so he trains very hard, but his personality is a bit out of place, and he has never been able to integrate into the team.

Perhaps seeing that Ronnie is particularly devoted to training, Quaresma often stays for extra training.

The two former sports tower three heroes are now once again competing in the first team.

But on the other hand, Edgar Marcelino is absent from the training list of the first team this season.

Jose Semedo said that this was a very painful blow to Marcelino, and he was even devastated.

The absence of the first team training camp means that it will be more difficult for him to enter the first team.

Coach Boloni didn't even give Marcelino the chance to train with the first team. It can be seen that the status of this player in his mind has plummeted, and he was basically sentenced to death.

Xue Linlin's lesson made Su Dong more sober and worked harder.

But in the warm-up match of the summer training camp, head coach Boloni paid more attention to Jadel and Nikule. The two almost occupied most of the playing time of the warm-up match. Su Dong could only get some garbage time between the two.

Just as everyone was worried about before, Jadell's performance in the warm-up match was not satisfactory, and Nikule began to gradually replace him, faintly showing the posture of attacking the starting main striker in the new season.

On the other hand, after entering August, all the second qualifying rounds of the UEFA Champions League have been played, and UEFA has begun to draw for the third round of qualifying matches.

As a result, Sporting Lisbon's luck in the draw was quite bad, and they even drew the giant team from Italy, Inter Milan.

This made the whole of Alcochetti miserable.

Everyone knows that Inter Milan was the runner-up in Serie A last season, and their overall strength is extraordinary.

Facing such a powerful opponent, what can Sporting Lisbon do to fight Inter Milan?
