i want to be king

Chapter 274 Alien Mystery

Ronaldo's career can be said to be a history of blood and tears accompanied by injuries.

After making his debut in Brazil, he came to Eindhoven and scored 36 goals in 35 games in the first season, including 33 goals in the league, becoming famous for a while.

But in his second season at Eindhoven, after scoring twelve goals in thirteen games, he suffered the first serious knee injury in his career. It was a bad foul encountered in a game, and the patella injury of his right leg made him rest for two months.

That season in Barcelona was a rare and complete season for Ronaldo, and then he came to Inter Milan.

The competitive pressure and venue conditions of Serie A were a heavy burden for the young Ronaldo, especially the inexplicable injury before the World Cup final in France in [-], which became a nightmare that Ronaldo could not get rid of ever since.

On November 21, [-], when Inter Milan faced Lecce, Ronaldo's right foot unfortunately stepped into a hole in the field. The old injury recurred, and the patella of his right foot was partially broken. He was diagnosed with a comminuted fracture of the soft tissue of the knee. This time he was sidelined for five months.

This time, he invited the famous expert Dr. Seyan to perform the operation on him. It went well, but after four months of rest, he was eager to come back. Unexpectedly, Ronaldo, who had just come back and played as a substitute for 6 minutes, suddenly fell to the ground without any physical confrontation, so there was a heartbreaking scene that countless fans still remember many years later.

Ronaldo hugged his bruised right foot and cried bitterly!

It was still Dr. Cy Young who performed the surgery, but this time he stayed away from the game for more than a year.

According to the subsequent statement by the Inter Milan team doctor, it was mainly because the stadium at the Olympic Stadium in Rome was very slippery at the time. When Ronaldo tried to take off to compete for the top, his knee exerted uneven force, which caused the patellar ligament to be damaged.

With two consecutive serious injuries and two major surgeries, almost no one had hope for Ronaldo's career. Even the Inter Milan team doctor at the time speculated that Ronaldo might bid farewell to professional football. The Italian media even reported that Ronaldo would be in a wheelchair.

But everyone knows the final story.

Before the World Cup in Korea and Japan in [-], Ronaldo came back again and led the Brazil team to win the World Cup. He also became the World Cup Golden Boot and staged the return of the king!
But after two serious injuries, Ronaldo also completely turned into a vitreous physique, and has been entangled with injuries ever since.

……

Regarding his career, Ronaldo regretted leaving La Liga prematurely.

This is not to say that he regrets moving to Inter Milan, but that it is a bit early.

At that time, Serie A was known as the Little World Cup, and it was the league with the highest professional level in the world. Ronaldo had just played a good season in Barcelona.

"If I play two more years in La Liga to make myself more mature, I believe everything will be different." Ronaldo still regretted his transfer that year.

He was only 20 years old when he moved from Barcelona to Inter Milan.

"You are younger than me. Although your body is better than mine, you can't be careless, especially when you go to the Premier League. The physical confrontation there is more intense, the game rhythm is faster, the impact is stronger, and the physical requirements of the players are also higher. Being too young may not be a good thing."

Nowadays, apart from the two heroes of the Western Super League, the closest ones to Su Dong are Chelsea and Manchester United in the Premier League.

Only these wealthy teams with sufficient financial resources can afford Su Dong's high transfer fee.

"I will seriously consider it." Su Dong nodded in agreement.

In fact, he hasn't thought about it yet, and he doesn't even know whether he wants to leave Valencia.

In many cases, players can't help themselves in the transfer market.

Just like now, Su Dong really has a lot of say, but he can't decide whether other teams will pay for him.

You can't write a letter of recommendation yourself like applying for a job, send it to the desk of the chairman of the other club, and then recommend yourself to join, right?Isn't that a joke?
"Back then, I really never thought about leaving Barcelona. I even reached an agreement with them to renew the contract. We just signed it. At that time, we made an appointment. We celebrated the success of the contract renewal in a restaurant in the afternoon. But after nine o'clock in the evening, my agent informed me that Barcelona broke the contract!"

When talking about this incident, Ronaldo showed a look of unbearable expression. Obviously, the negotiation that year had a great impact on him, at least he still has resentment towards Barcelona.

"After so many years, they are still the same as before. They are always negotiating in a dark way. Maradona, Romario, me, Figo... We have all experienced this. In the future, Ronaldinho, or others, will certainly be the same. No one can escape."

Su Dong listened silently, he believed that what Ronaldo said was the truth.

Perhaps, the Brazilian really still wants him to join Real Madrid, so he will tell him this.

Barcelona's problems have a long history. Mendes told him that since the 80s, it has been difficult for Barcelona to retain a superstar like Ronaldo. This was the case before, and it will be the same now and in the future.

Maradona was only 24 years old when he left, Romario was only 28 years old when he left, Figo was only 27 years old when he left, Ronaldo was even younger, he left when he was only 20 years old.

Perhaps, when these superstars left Barcelona, ​​they did have their own problems, but there has never been a giant like Barcelona. Isn't this worth pondering?
Mendes also believes that Su Dong is not suitable to leave La Liga for the time being, because he is not mature enough.

Staying in La Liga, Su Dong won't have too many choices.

Among them, when Mendes told him about Barcelona, ​​he mentioned a sentence, which left a deep impression on Su Dong.

"If you really go to Barcelona, ​​you have to be mentally prepared, just play football with a salary, maybe two years, maybe three years, you will definitely leave!"

What Mendes wants to say is probably the same as what Ronaldo is saying now.

Su Dong also fell into deep thought again.

…………

…………

After a lapse of a week, La Liga rekindled the flames of war.

In the third round of No.30, Valencia played at home against Real Sociedad.

Since there is still a Champions League home game against Monaco in the semi-finals in the middle of the week, Valencia does not intend to do its best in this game.

In the first half, there was a fierce attack on Real Sociedad, Vicente and Su Dong scored a goal each.

During the half-time break, Benitez even replaced Su Dong in advance and let Mista play to save strength for the midweek Champions League.

But the situation turned around in the second half, first Harvey Alonso scored a goal, and then Karpin equalized the score for Real Sociedad with a penalty kick.

Two to two, the two sides finally shook hands and made peace.

……

Valencia drew Real Sociedad, Real Madrid beat Atletico Madrid, Barcelona won, but it doesn't matter anymore.

Everyone is clear that this season's La Liga title is already in Valencia's pocket.

In this case, it is only natural for Benitez to stay focused for the midweek Champions League.

If it affects the crucial semi-finals of the Champions League for this kind of game that has nothing to do with the overall situation, then the loss outweighs the gain.

Bat fans at Mestagna are well aware of this, too, so there was little reaction to the team's draw.

…………

…………

After playing Real Sociedad, the Valencia coaching staff held a tactical meeting, focusing on the midweek match against Monaco.

A focal point of discussion was Aimar's absence.

Su Dong, Vicente and Aimar are Valencia's offensive iron triangle, but this season, especially since the second half, Aimar's frequent injuries made Valencia rely more on Su Dong and Vicente for support.

Vicente is on the wing, and Su Dong occupies the middle. Therefore, in many cases, Valencia will adopt different tactics according to the opponent, such as adopting a four-four-two double striker tactic, or continue to adopt a four-two-three formation, but let Canobio serve as the attacking midfielder, and even let Sudong retreat to serve as the attacking midfielder.

The reason is also very simple. In the four-two-three formation, the position of the front midfielder is very important.

Facing Monaco, the game will be very difficult. Benitez needs Su Dongding to pose a threat at the front, because he knows very well that if Su Dong is withdrawn and Mista is at the front, he will not be able to support Monaco's two central defenders.

Monaco's double midfielder tactics force Valencia to take more flanks. Mista's threat to respond to the wing is far weaker than that of Sudong.

Benitez held a meeting to discuss, just to listen to the opinions of the players.

The results were clear, and none of the players had a problem.

The ball kicked back to Benitez's feet.

Monaco adopts a four-four-two formation with two midfielders in the midfield. Valencia should have focused on using this large space, but the absence of Aimar has had a great impact on Valencia, and Canobio has lost the trust of Benitez.

……

The meeting did not discuss any results, so Benitez called the players to the office to talk.

From captain Albert to vice-captain Baraja, but he still attaches great importance to Su Dong and Vicente.

After all, in addition to cooperating with Albelda and Baraja, this player's most important thing is to attack with Su Dong and Vicente's partners. If he doesn't call, it's like Canobio, and it's useless.

This is the semi-final of the Champions League, and the players can't give good opinions.

But Su Dong, he has always had a slightly more adventurous idea.

"Why not let David Silva have a try?" Su Dong suggested.

He likes to touch David Silva's head, and David Silva is only willing to let Su Dong touch his head.

For the strength of this young midfielder, Su Dong still understands that he is really good, but he is younger and weaker in physical confrontation, but his organization and passing skills are still very strong.

Benitez was a little surprised. It's not that he didn't think about David Silva, but he felt that he was too young.

But now, hearing what Su Dong said, he was really tempted.

　Woooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo ! !
