Chapter 283

When Barack showed up at his rented apartment in Rome with his homework, his wife wondered if her husband wasn't with her. m..

Barack told him he had business to do.

"The training is over, Michelle, now it's private time." The wife frowned.

"Yes, training is over, but I still have homework."

The wife was shocked.

"Football practice and homework?"

So Barack told his wife everything he experienced today.

My wife also felt incredible after listening to it.

"They did it for you alone?"

she asked.

Barack nodded.

"So, I don't want to pass up this opportunity. I want to try again. I don't think I'm here to hug my thigh, I'm here to contribute my strength."

※※※

Both Chang Sheng and Baraka arrived at the training base early the next day, and then Chang Sheng checked the completion of Barak's "homework".

In response to Barack's answer, Chang Sheng put forward his own opinion.

But he didn't simply tell Barack whether he was right or wrong.

Because these things are not really right or wrong.

Chang Sheng is also very good at choosing ways and means. He wants to help Barack, but he can't stimulate Barack's self-esteem, so he never put on airs of his famous coach from the beginning to the end, but communicated with Barack on an equal footing.

Take the "batch assignment" thing as an example.

He didn't brusquely tell Barack what he was doing wrong.

Even if there is a problem, he just proposes his own solution, and then instead of using this to tell Barack that you did something wrong, he discusses it with Barack.

The two sides discussed how to play in this situation. Chang Sheng used his perspective as a head coach, while Ballack expounded his views more through his playing experience.

When their discussion is not enough, the morning training will start soon.

The new day of training is the same as before, Ballack is the protagonist in the training, and everyone arranges their training plan around him.

Then after the two training sessions in the morning and afternoon, I have the advantage of watching the tactical class in the video, and there are homework after class.

It just goes on and on every day, except that the content of the training is changing, and no one even notices the passage of time.

During this period of time, there were not so many media reporters in Lazio's training base, and everyone's attention fell on the national team match day.

The 2010 World Cup is over, and all European countries need to play qualifiers for the European Cup two years later. Teams from South America and Asia will start qualifying for the 2014 World Cup in Brazil.

The attention of the sports media all over the world is on the qualifiers of these major competitions.

For Chang Sheng, this is a good thing. When he carefully trained Ballack, he did not want to be disturbed by the media.

This quiet atmosphere is what he wants.

There seemed to be no impetuous atmosphere in the air at the Formello training base.

It's more about the peace of mind when everyone is absorbed in their work.

In this way, before we knew it, the two national team games were over, and those international players who participated in the national team games returned to the team one after another.

And Barack's little trouble is over.

At the end of the day, Ballack still attended the tactics class normally.

After the tactical class, he was still waiting for Chang Sheng to give him homework.

Chang Sheng told him that there was no homework left.

"You have worked hard these few days. You have to practice more in Formello, and you still have homework at home...but from now on, it's gone." Chang Sheng smiled and shook his head.

Only then did Ballack react to Gulai, the national team match day is over.

By the way, how did the two games of the German team go?

He was surprised that he didn't care at all.

In the past one and a half weeks, all his thoughts have been on training.

He didn't even feel tired, he didn't feel hard.

He knew this was his last chance.

Those media were right. He was kicked out by Chelsea. Although he expressed his willingness to cut his salary, Chelsea still ruthlessly abandoned him.

So what is the difference between him and those other teammates who came to Lazio after being unsatisfactory in the original club?

He definitely didn't come to Lazio to hug his thighs. He believed that Lazio didn't need to hug his thighs. He wanted to be reborn in Lazio like his teammates.

He is thirty-four years old, but he doesn't want to retire yet. In the last few years of his career, he doesn't want to give people the feeling of retirement, and he can continue to shine.

But first, he has to fit into Lazio's tactical system.

He must seize this opportunity so that he may participate in the European Cup two years later. Not surprisingly, that may be his last World Series.

So this is really my last chance.

When he found out that the training was over, he felt rather disappointed, as if he didn't want the training to end so early.

Chang Sheng naturally also noticed Barack's expression. In fact, he is the same as Barack. He also hopes that the training time can be longer, so that the effect will be less.

It's a pity that there is not enough time. He and his coaching team can only conduct such special training for Ballack in the national team competition. And the next national team training day, I don't know if there will be such an opportunity. Because if Ballack performs well, he will definitely be selected for the national team, and he will also leave Formello by then.

And if Ballack is not good enough to be selected for the national team, doesn't that mean that his efforts have failed?

In comparison, he still hopes that Ballack can be selected for the German national team, at least he succeeded.

"In fact, the training these days is just the beginning. Next, you need to observe, think, and apply more in training and competition. You will, unless you are injured. I will not put pressure on you. Yes, Michel, but I hope you will at least act more like a Lazio player than before."

Chang Sheng said.

Hearing what Chang Sheng said, Barack nodded.

In fact, he couldn't wait any longer. He wanted to see whether the things he practiced so hard in training were of any use, and whether his efforts were in vain.

He is eager to test himself through real competition.

When the players returned to Formello, Lazio's training returned to normal, the youth team returned to their own training ground, and the team's training subjects were no different from before.

They are preparing for the weekend's second round of the league, with Lazio hosting Bologna.

In this game, Chang Sheng carried out a large-scale rotation, and replaced many players who participated in the national team games. For example, those players who played the whole game in the two national team games must have been affected by their physical strength. very serious impact.

So when everyone saw that Ballack appeared in Lazio's roster for this game, it was not surprising.

If there is no way to get a chance to play in such a game, Ballack can really leave...

Of course, those who like to watch Lazio infighting are bound to be disappointed.

※※※

Ballack played because other players have national team competition tasks, so it just means that Ballack has no national team competition tasks, and he was abandoned by the German team!

So this game is not something worthy of Ballack's joy.

But Barack was just happy.

Judging from the pictures taken by reporters before the game, Ballack is still in a good mood, with a smile on his face.

Such an expression is really hard to believe that he is in a difficult situation in Lazio.

It would be fine if he was always smiling like this. Everyone can think that he pays attention to his personal image and does a good job on the surface. But in fact, it wasn't a cover-up. He had a gloomy expression before, and following him tens of meters away, he seemed to be able to feel the strong negative energy emanating from his body.

At that time, the criticism from the media made him feel great pressure, and his expression couldn't get better.

In terms of his situation, this expression is normal.

So why is he so happy now?

This is surprising.

Could it be that losing to the national team hit him too hard, causing Ballack to give up on himself?

※※※

Before this game, Chang Sheng was doing the final mobilization in the locker room.

Having just returned from participating in the national team competition, many people still seemed very tired. The Changsheng team was forced to make large-scale adjustments.

He naturally doesn't want his team to lose at home, for whatever reason.

So he was quite well prepared for this game.

And he asked the team to be at home to those Bologna.

Finally, as the players walked out of the locker room, he stopped Ballack.

"Calm down, don't get too excited, Michelle."

he said.

Barak smiled and nodded: "I didn't, boss."

This "boss" is really proficient.

Now he is used to this address. In the past one and a half weeks with the boss day and night, the two have improved their understanding and understanding of each other.

Moreover, Barack now admires Chang Sheng from the bottom of his heart. His success is inevitable, and it is not wrong to call him the boss.

"Go ahead, the team needs your contribution."

Chang Sheng knows that for a person like Barack, the most important thing is to express his needs for him.

Sure enough, upon hearing what Chang Sheng said, Barack's eyes flickered.

Then he came out.

The Stadio Olimpico in Rome is extremely lively today.

Because this is the first game of the new season at this stadium, whether it is the Super Bowl or the league, there was nothing like the Olympic Stadium before.

If the Italian Super Cup hadn't been moved to Yanjing, it stands to reason that it should be played here.

Lazio played away in the first round of the league, and now they have finally returned to their home court.

This is the first home game of the new season, so Lazio fans packed the Olimpico to the brim.

The Olympic Stadium, which can accommodate 72,000 people, was actually full.

This is not the focus of a strong dialogue.

Lazio won the first Triple Crown in Italian history last season, which added a lot of points to them.

The number of Lazio fans has increased significantly, and fans are more interested in watching the game live.

This is why Lotito insisted on building his own stadium. Seeing such a high attendance rate, the income of the Rome City Council on the final game day was cheaper. He really had reason to be upset.

Ballack laughed when he saw the almost packed Olympic Stadium on the pitch.

He has never been afraid of such a crowded environment.

The more people there are, the better he is.

Let this match be the rebirth of me, Michel Ballack! (To be continued.) q
