Chapter 286 Rookie Wall?
Just before Werder Bremen's home game against Hertha Berlin, as far away as Munich, the "Munich Daily" published an article by Timo Brauer.

The article points to glory.

"Rong's performance in the warm-up match has made countless people applaud him. He seems to have recovered the performance of the first half of the season. The strange state in the last two league rounds of the first half of the season has disappeared. We randomly interviewed some Werder Bremen fans who watched these two warm-up matches.

"In my opinion, it's quite the opposite. Rong's current excellent form is just an illusion. Behind this outstanding performance, there are huge hidden dangers. Ladies and gentlemen, I am definitely not shocking when I say this. What is Rong's sharpest weapon now? I think anyone can answer it. It is speed. Yes, it is speed. Rong's speed is the most important reason why he scored nine goals in the first half of the season. When he sprints, almost no one can stop him in the Bundesliga. You just need to run hard, but is that really the case?"

"I believe that the coaches of the Bundesliga team are not idiots. In the first half of the season, because they didn't know enough about Rong, they gave him a lot of opportunities, but if they didn't know how to deal with Rong after being abused by Rong once, then I can only say that they are not qualified to be the head coach of a Bundesliga team. Obviously, Rong has outstanding advantages, but also outstanding shortcomings. His speed is fast enough, but his speed needs space to display. What if we compress his space near the penalty area? Is there any room for his speed? No. Besides speed, he also has What? No. I don’t know if you still remember the match between Werder Bremen and Bayern Munich at home? In the first half of that game, Hitzfeld’s team strictly restricted Rong’s space. As a result, Rong played like sleepwalking in that half. Although Bayern Munich eventually lost the game. But I think the way Hitzfeld dealt with Rong in the first half should be a reference for many coaches. Contain the space and limit his speed, then Rong can’t do anything... It’s simple, right? Right? The man of the season in the first half of the season was restrained so easily, which makes people feel unreal, but it is true. After all, Rong has only been in contact with football for two years. Although he is amazingly talented, he still lacks a lot of experience and is still immature... "

"Except for speed, he doesn't have any other weapons that can be used, and his body is far from being strong. Just look at his performance in the last two rounds of the league in the first half of the season... When he gave up his speed weapon, what did he do? It's horrible! This is the truth!"

Rongguang's miraculous performance in the first half of the season was originally the focus of media reports and attention.

Everyone has been discussing why Rong Guang, a boy who has just landed in European football, can have such an amazing performance.

At the same time, his strange performance in the last two rounds of the first half of the season also made everyone very curious.

So now when the "Munich Daily" published this article under the banner of revealing the glory, it immediately attracted everyone's attention.

Many people found that Timo Brower's analysis was very reasonable.

Rongguang's outstanding performance last season was basically all due to speed.Nine out of ten of his goals are scored by speed, and his offensive contribution is also due to his super speed.

Without the pace, his performance was the same as in the first half against Bayern Munich.

For a player with such a single characteristic, it is really easy to contain him.

Just don't let him rush up the speed.

Many media quickly reposted Timo Brauer's article, and the speed of transmission on the Internet was even faster.

Some media even gave this article some very gimmicky names in the process of dissemination, in order to sensationalize and attract attention.

For example, "Rong's Fatal Flaw!" "Ah, what "The Unbearable Behind the Halo of Genius! "ah……

Anyway, no matter how shocking it is, readers must only read the title, and they can't wait to read the text.

The title party is rampant...

Even the Chinese media was affected, and the Chinese journalists who stayed in Germany were surprised when they read this article.

They really never thought that behind Rongguang's outstanding performance, there was such a crisis hidden!
Before, they were all dazzled by the outstanding performance of Rong Guaiao. When the truth was presented to them, their minds went blank almost instantly.

This……

There is a "rookie wall" in the NBA, which means that a rookie will perform very well in the first year, but that is because everyone does not know him enough.In the second year, he is no longer unfamiliar and mysterious in the eyes of everyone, and his strengths and weaknesses are well known to everyone, then his performance will plummet, which is far from the amazing performance in the first year.

This is the "Rookie Wall".

This problem also exists in football.Many players are often very good in their first season in the professional league, which makes people exclaim "another supernova is rising".

But when everyone expects him to continue this excellent state in the second season, their state often begins to decline, from amazing to mediocre...

The Chinese reporters originally thought that the glorious rookie wall should reappear next season no matter what.So in the first season, they didn't think about it that much at all, they just simply enjoyed the enjoyment brought by the glory.

Who would have thought that looking at the meaning of the article now, it seems that the glorious rookie wall will appear in the second half of the season? !

This article by Timo Brower soon appeared in domestic media.

Some media reprinted the entire article, while others only intercepted fragments and added their own comments.

But no matter how you do it, the meaning is the same, that is, "The German media found out the crisis behind Rongguang's amazing performance, and Rongguang has been thoroughly researched by the opponent!"

In fact, Timo Brower's article did not clearly point out that the current glory has been thoroughly studied by the opponent.This is a classic example of information changing as it spreads.

That's how the rumors started...

The panic of the domestic media has also brought an atmosphere of worry to the domestic fans.

Chinese fans read the analysis in the article and found that what was said was very reasonable.

When Rongguang played well in the first half of the season, it was all about his speed.

And once he doesn't use his speed, his performance will be compromised immediately.It's not that the reporters are talking nonsense, the fans have seen it too.Every game of Rongguang will be broadcast live on CCTV, and these fans are also in front of the TV, so they all know what Rongguang did in the first half of the season.

What the German media says is true!
This thought reverberated in their minds, making him feel horrified—could Rongguang's performance in the second half of the season plummet?

"The "Munich Daily" exposed Rong's weaknesses ahead of time, will this affect us?" As soon as a new day's work began, Dieter Hoeness, the manager of Hertha Berlin, took a copy of the "Munich Daily" and knocked on the door of coach Hans Meyer's office.

Meier took the paper and read it.

"No." He shook his head. "It doesn't have any impact. I believe that not only our family has noticed Rong's problem. It's just that we didn't say it. This is no longer a secret, right?"

"I'm worried that Schaff and the others will make temporary adjustments before the game..." Hoeness Jr. frowned.

"No. It's too late to make adjustments at this time. Even if they knew that Rong had some kind of problem, they couldn't react." Hans Meyer looked at the reporter's signature on the newspaper, "This Timo Brower's timing is really good, and I don't know if he did it on purpose or a coincidence..."

"I'm talking about that kind of adjustment. They can remove Rong and let Elton play..." Hoeness Jr. was still worried.

Hans Meyer laughed and comforted the club's manager: "Don't worry, Dieter. The situation you mentioned is absolutely impossible. The relationship between Elton and Schaaf is very bad, and Schaaff has already determined to ban the Brazilian who defected to Schalke 04 in advance. So he absolutely cannot give Elton the opportunity to replace Rong in the starting lineup. We don't need to consider this possibility."

Dieter Hoeness, the younger brother of Uli Hoeness, thought about it carefully, and the situation seemed to be what Hans Meyer said.

So he was also relieved.

Deborah pointed to the laptop screen for Rong Guang to see.

"The "Munich Daily" has already begun to speak ill of you, Rong. Timo Brauer pointed out your problem. You have nothing but speed. So if your opponent wants to contain you, it is easy. Yesterday, five media reprinted the report, and today, there are ten more. In addition, many Chinese media also reported. As I said, the media has fired up your topic.

Deborah explained the situation to Rong Guang.

"At this time, as long as I behave well, I can ignite my emotions?"

Rong Guang asked back.

Deborah nodded: "Yes, everyone is talking bad about you. When they are worried about you, if you perform well and exceed their expectations, the sensation will be incomparable. At that time, if you come forward for an interview, even if you only accept an interview with one media, it will attract widespread attention."

"Then it's easy!" During the winter break training camp, Glory has been practicing his extraordinary skills, and he is quite confident in himself.He's convinced he's got most of his ball feel back.

Yoga, he doesn't go to Teacher Mia to practice now - Teacher Mia has gone back to Hollywood, and he can't find anyone there.However, he can also practice at home by himself, even though the intensity of the practice is not as great as before.That's enough.

Rongguang is confident that he will surprise everyone in the match against Hertha Berlin.

"But that Timo Brower's name seems familiar?"

"He will be the first one to label you as a 'parallel importer'." Deborah introduced succinctly.

"Damn it! It's him!" As soon as he mentioned this nickname, Rong Guang became emotional.When he was in Bayern Munich, he was called a parallel importer. It feels really bad to be looked down upon.Later, this nickname accompanied him from Bayern Munich to Werder Bremen. It was not until he performed well in the game that this nickname was gradually forgotten by people.

But the title of "parallel imports" still left a very deep impression on Rongguang.

He was very upset when he thought that he was a magnificent South American Copa Libertadores champion and was called a "parallel importer".

Unexpectedly, this nickname was actually obtained by this person!

"Why does he keep fighting against me?" Rong Guang asked.

"There are many reasons. Maybe it's because you are in the limelight, and criticizing you can earn attention, which is a kind of gimmick. It may also be because of personal reasons, such as personal prejudice."

"so what should I do?"

"Ignore him. This kind of person, the more you pay attention to him, the more energetic he will be. He may be waiting for you to scold him, and then take the opportunity to hype."

"Then let him jump around like this?"

"Of course not, you just need to know how to play the guitar on the court. Isn't his criticism also about your poor performance on the court? Then show him your performance. When your performance gets better and better, he will naturally shut up."

Rong Guang nodded and accepted Deborah's suggestion.

After the failed contract with Adidas, he paid more attention to Deborah's opinion.

He found that his previous positioning of Deborah was wrong.Before, he just hoped that Deborah would stay by his side, and then rely on his own salary to make enough 100 million, and just pay off the debt.

He never expected Deborah to be useful in the actual brokerage job.

But now it seems that Deborah is very serious about being an agent. Her opinions in this regard are indeed professional and worth listening to.

Therefore, Rong Guang could not simply regard Deborah as a poor person in need of help, but a trustworthy partner at work who could really help him.
