Godfather of national football

Chapter 206 Attitude Determines Everything

Chapter 206 Attitude Determines Everything

In October, there is already a tinge of coolness in Shanghai. Today, Li Guo returned to his apartment as usual after a day of training.

After taking a shower, open a bottle of beer, nestle comfortably on the sofa, turn on the computer, and check your email.

After deleting more than 10 spam emails, a familiar name suddenly came into view - Ren Kai.

For Ren Kai, Li Guo has a deep impression. He played in Sao Paulo, Brazil, and his skills are flashy. I don't like him very much.

"What is he doing with me?"

Click on the email link sent by Ren Kai, it turned out to be a video, which was compiled by Ren Kai himself, about his latest situation.

Looking at it, Li Guo's eyes sparkled, "Is this guy going to Ukraine to play football?"

The game scenes in the video are all pictures of Ren Kai wearing the Shakhtar Donetsk jersey to participate in the game. What does this mean?
It is self-evident to people in the football circle that the Ukrainian Super League has a rough style of play. If Ren Kai was still the same embroidered pillow as before, he would have been shoveled over in 10 minutes. The meaning of Ren Kai sending this video to Li Guo is very clear, he has changed.

What's even more rare is that this kid can take the initiative to contact him, and he doesn't have the temper of the so-called "Chinese Kaka" back then.

"Okay, then I'll go and see him," Li Guo thought to himself.

*****
Donetsk, a large city in eastern Ukraine, is famous for its industry and football.

In terms of football, among other things, the city has a great team, Shakhtar Donetsk, and a great stadium, Donbas Arena.

Li Guo went directly to the training base of Shakhtar Donetsk to find Ren Kai. Because of the appointment in advance, it was easy for Li Guo to enter the training base.

"Ren Kai, why did you leave Sao Paulo and come here? The climate and customs of this place and Sao Paulo are very different."

"Want to hear the truth?"

Li Guo nodded.

"Ever since you dismissed me from the national team, I've been thinking about whether I need to change."

"Haha, hate me?"

"Of course not," Ren Kai chuckled, "After much deliberation, I think what you said is still reasonable. My style of play is soft, so I came here. I think if I can gain a foothold in the Ukrainian Super League, you should no longer think that my style of play is soft."

"Then are you the main force now?"

"Not...not yet,"

"The list of 18 people?"

Ren Kai nodded, "Every game can be included in the squad."

"That's not bad," Li Guo chuckled, "By the way, can I get tickets for the weekend? I want to watch your game."

"This bag is on me," Ren Kai assured, patting his chest.

*****
On the weekend, at the Donbas Arena, Li Guo was wrapped in a thick down jacket to watch the game. Due to lack of preparation, Li Guo almost froze like a dog these days. Fortunately, he asked Ren Kai to borrow some coats, otherwise he would have turned into an ice sculpture.

This game is Shakhtar Donetsk vs. Kharkov at home. The opponent is not too strong. Ren Kai also started as the midfielder.

In the position of the national team, Ren Kai faces competition from Hao Junmin and Zheng Zhi. It is not easy to enter the national team.

After the start of the game, Li Guo turned on the coaching assistance system to scan Ren Kai, and found that Ren Kai's various statistics did not improve, which also proved that there is really little room for improvement after the football player finishes his youth training.

Of course, the coaching assistance system is not a panacea. For example, players' mentality and experience cannot be seen. At least in terms of mentality, Ren Kai's progress is still obvious and he has become more mature.

Ren Kai worked very hard on the court, and scored the ball in place a few times, but he always felt that something was missing. To be honest, what a player who plays an attacking midfielder may need is talent, and talent cannot be cultivated.

Suddenly, with a fast break from Shakhtar Donetsk, Li Guo's eyes were attracted by a player of the opponent.

"Is that Chinese?" Li Guo asked himself.

Kharkov's No. 22 is like a midfield sweeper. It has a strong interception ability at the midfielder position. It seems to be equipped with a motor.

Li Guo turned on the coach assistant system and glanced at No. 22. His ability value is 67 and his potential value is 85.

"Chinese?"

"Chinese?"

"Chinese?"

"You're so noisy, why don't you just ask at halftime," Allardyce said.

"Haha, sorry Big Sam, I get excited when I see good players."

Li Guo seeing a good player is like a pervert seeing a beautiful woman. How can he wait until the halftime break? He immediately contacted the professional football data company he usually cooperates with, and soon Li Guo got the number 22 data.

Name Chen Deng, height 185, born in Dalian in 1990, immigrated to Ukraine with his parents since he was a child, and now plays in Kharkov as a defensive midfielder.

"Don't watch it, go block him in the player tunnel," Li Guo thought to himself.

*****
At the end of halftime, Ren Kai turned his head to look for Li Guo, but he was disappointed when he saw that Li Guo's place was empty.

"It seems that the head is still dissatisfied with me!" Thinking of this, Ren Kai is still very disappointed. Seeing that the national football team led by Li Guo is getting better and better, but he can't even make the squad. He also played for more than 10 years. Why did he fail so much.

Ren Kai couldn't figure it out. He lowered his head and returned to the player tunnel. In the slightly dark player tunnel, someone called him, "Why are you lowering your head?"

"Head, so you didn't leave."

"Hehe, why should I leave?"

Li Guo walked over and put his hand on Ren Kai's shoulder, "Have you ever heard a saying that everything is determined by attitude."

Ren Kai nodded, "Milu said."

"Yes, you have changed, and you have receded from the original unrealistic pride. I think I will have a place for you in my national team in the future."

Ren Kai was so excited that he almost shed tears, his hard work finally paid off, Li Guo patted him, "Go to the locker room first."

After Ren Kai left, Li Guo went to the next target. When Chen Deng appeared in Li Guo's line of sight, Li Guo smiled, but the other party was a little dazed.

"Do you know me?"

"of course."

"Then can you guess why I'm looking for you?"

Chen Deng seemed a little stunned, shook his head and said, "No."

Li Guo smiled again, and said, "By the way, are you still Chinese?"

"Yes."

"That's easy."

Chen Deng was taken aback again. Li Guo knew that according to FIFA regulations, when the national team is called up, the players must come and the club must release them.

After asking clearly, Li Guo turned around and was about to leave. At this moment, Chen Deng seemed to understand something, "Do you want me to join the national team?"

"Yes, and in the future, don't call him "you", but call him head."
