The Ball at Your Feet

Although Deschamps said he would visit Zhao Yaning's house, he postponed this time to February. The reason is also very simple. Zhao Yaning's parents returned to Monaco to spend the New Year with their son.

February 1 is the Lunar New Year. If it was like last year and was alone, Zhao Yaning would not celebrate the New Year. But this year, Zhao Yaning's parents are by his side, so he naturally wants to take them home to celebrate the New Year together.

After hearing about Chinese New Year customs, Deschamps decided to visit Zhao Yaning's house after the New Year. The transfer is not a matter of urgency, there is no need to talk about it now. He doesn't know what Chinese New Year is about, but in his opinion, since it is a national holiday, then as a member of another nationality, don't make trouble.

Although Zhao Yaning doesn't mind, Deschamps himself is a Basque and belongs to a minority in France. Therefore, he is slightly more sensitive to this issue.

The return of Zhao Yaning's parents made Zhao Yaning extremely happy, and being able to spend a year with his family was really one of the things that made him happy this year.

It was just that this made Beibei feel a little embarrassed, but she had nowhere else to hide this time, and could only spend the New Year with Zhao Yaning's family here.

But fortunately, Beibei was originally a smart and sensible child, and there was no bad temper. Zhao Yaning's parents also liked her very much, which made her no longer feel entangled soon.

Seeing that his home is so appropriate, Zhao Yaning can naturally put more energy on the playing field.

In the last game in January, Monaco defeated Nantes 3:1.

And Zhao Yaning easily scored a goal in this game.

Less than twenty minutes after the opening, Zhao Yaning received a pass from Jiuli at the front of the penalty area, wiped it in, and easily broke the gate with a small angle push.

"Zhao Yaning scored a goal for Monaco again! He scored his seventh league goal this season! Seven goals in 17 games, such an efficiency is enough to make many genuine centers ashamed. Zhao Yaning used his outstanding performance, Tell people that he is the most anticipated player in Ligue 1!"

The narrator can obviously ignore that three of Zhao Yaning's goals are set-pieces. If only counting sports goals, four in 17 games can be regarded as an excellent level among wingers at most.

And immediately, Monaco once again expanded the score. Roundup's goal after a quick breakthrough allowed Monaco to further expand the score.

Although Nantes also resisted, after the start of the second half, they set off a wave of offensive and scored a goal, but Rothen’s corner kick created a new opportunity, and Zicos swept the ball into the chaos. The goal allowed Monaco to seal the victory 3:1.

After this game, Monaco also ushered in another good news: the Lyon team lost the game with Bastia, Monaco's points surpassed Lyon, leading by two points to top the list.

"It's really a good thing to be able to get this news. This news is our best New Year gift, Joey, Happy New Year." Deschamps was also very happy after the game. He was very happy to overtake Lyon.

"The next game is your Chinese New Year, Joey, that day I can’t give you a holiday. You have to play on the court. You know that our next game opponent is Sedan, and after Sedan, we My opponent is Lyon, I hope to bite the score, and then in the next game, we will widen the gap, so that we have a greater advantage in the next game."

Zhao Yaning nodded and agreed very happily.

But in this game, Monaco swallowed the first draw since the start of the second half of the season. Sedan and Monaco scored a 0:0 tie, and after this match, Lyon once again surpassed Monaco one point in the early game and returned to the top of the list.

This kind of battle has greatly exceeded the people's expectations. Although this year's Sedan played really well, they are good, but they are not good enough to compare with Monaco. What they rely on most is that their striker Kamara is in good condition and has shown full ability, but the problem is that Kamara's goals are only half of Roundup's, and his strength is simply not enough to support Sedan. The battle of Monaco.

But in this game, Monaco played without fighting spirit. After experiencing the harsh schedule of double matches a week and experiencing four victories, Monaco is not used to the sudden one-week match.

Zhao Yaning is obviously also one of these unsuitable people. His performance in the whole game was also extremely poor, and his handling of football several times was not decisive enough, making Monaco unable to knock on Sedan's defense. He seems to have walked into a wrong way that shouldn't be: just started to play himself and independent, then he started to be a little alone, even a little fancy. This style of play naturally made Petit shook his head again and again.

"Obviously, we have encountered some problem." The 0:0 score is not a big deal, but after the game ended, Deschamps rarely got angry in the locker room, "You played a terrible game. We have played double matches in a week for the past two weeks, and you all played well, but now, our tense period has passed, and you have played in a mess... What should I say? You guys, is it right? Can't you be a little more serious?"

Deschamps’ cursing sounded in the locker room all the time, “If this goes on, we won’t be able to play football. When you win, you will be proud, when you lose, you will be discouraged. The schedule is tight. You get tired, you lose the schedule, and you don't play seriously! What are you thinking about? I just find a group of kids to play football, and they will be more sensible and smarter than you!"

"Head, we didn't mean it." Roten raised his head and said.

"This is what I hate the most. You don't even realize that you are bad." Deschamps waved his fingers. "You have developed this habit subconsciously. You have long been used to a good one and a bad one. In the field, I played well in some games, but didn't play seriously in other games. This mentality is absolutely wrong!"

"Head, we are not Juventus, we can't get that kind of stability." Roundup also interjected.

The team didn't win the ball, and everyone was in a bad mood, but after all, this was not a loss. Everyone still believed that they should not receive such insults.

But Deschamps doesn't think so

"If you don't learn what it means to play stable football, then you will never be a champion." Deschamps pressed his resistance back with a stern look. "You feel very wronged, feel very wronged, and think that I am speaking like this. You are humiliated...but you will remember it for me! This is what I want to give you! I just want you to remember my humiliation to you! What do you think you are? A player from the Monaco team, a player from Ligue 1 , And even tomorrow’s La Liga, Serie A, Premier League players. You think you are top-notch, tomorrow stars with a brilliant future, don’t you? You are nothing!"

"You think you can be regarded as a star after a few good games? You think you can be complacent after a few limelights? How far are you?"

Some people are still not convinced, after all, it is just a draw.

"You guys a while ago, because the schedule was tight, you lost or tied the ball, I never scolded you, so now I scold you, you will find it strange, don't you?" Deschamps looked at the ball The team, he knows what everyone in the team thinks, "In your opinion, since I was able to bear it at that time, I should be able to bear it now, right?"

"Head, we know that now is a crucial time for the championship..."

"The whole season is a critical period. There are thirty-eight matches in the league, and you must not relax in one game." Deschamps directly gave Jiu Li a roll of eyes. Remember, I may not be a good coach with outstanding abilities, but I am definitely not a **** coach who will blame players for things that happen, and have results that belong to him. I attach great importance to achievements, but because of bad results, I irritate players. I don’t know how to do this kind of thing. What I said, I always remember that in the 38 league games, no game is secondary. I ask you to play every game well. It won’t be because of the team. This kind of reason blames you for entering the critical period of the championship."

"I blame you, because of this kind of game, not because you lose points because of your lack of ability, but because you lose points because of your improper attitude. I have already said that in my team, the ability is insufficient, and I can tolerate it. , But the attitude is not correct, I absolutely cannot tolerate it!"

"And you, your attitude right now is extremely improper."

Jiuli wanted to speak, but lowered his head without saying anything.

"Victory is good, winning streak is better, but no matter how you win, you shouldn't lose a sense of peace."

When Deschamps said this, his tone was much calmer, "It is good that you can fight against powerful enemies of any level. It is also good that you can not flinch in any situation. But you give me Remember, these skills are just the mentality that brave men should have. If you are weak and have this mentality, it should be enough, but you are the strong and the king. What I need you to have is not to be frightened and not to be in danger. In chaos, you can be calm in the face of anyone and regard victory as a habit, not a celebration of the king's heart."

"When you have that state of mind, come and tell me, you are first-class. Only if you can calmly deal with the enemy under any circumstances, you can say that you have a king's heart. At that time, you Just enough to be crowned."
