1068 Profound Sorcerer's Stone(1/2)
Every time he talks to Gao Shen, Pogba changes his career.
I still remember, the first time I met Gao Shen, he was still a player of Manchester United.
At that time, he was worried about renewing his contract with Manchester United and Ferguson's positioning of him. He changed several agents, but no one dared to challenge Ferguson, which made him miserable.
The emergence of Gao Shen brought him a new choice.
He chose to go to Leeds United.
After playing for Leeds United for two years, Pogba has grown very quickly.
Sarri and his team, as well as the coaches and staff of Leeds United, fulfilled the promise Gao Shen made to him back then, and the White Rose was promoted from the English Championship to the Premier League and became a dark horse in the Premier League.
.
Pogba has also won the attention of many strong European teams with his outstanding performance at Leeds United.
He began to enter the national team and began to join the ranks of well-known European stars.
At this time, Real Madrid paid a transfer fee of 60 million euros for him and took him away from Leeds United.
Going to Real Madrid is really a step to the top for Pogba.
He was even a little hesitant.
His idol Zidane is at Real Madrid, and Gao Shen is also at Real Madrid. They both called Pogba and persuaded the French midfielder to join Real Madrid because he vaguely felt that this would be a choice that would change his career.
Real Madrid has many excellent midfielders, such as Toni Kroos and Modric, the Spanish player Isco who is about the same age and not as famous as him, and the talented Italian midfielder Verratti...
…
In a team like Real Madrid, there is never a shortage of stars.
But Pogba is still here!
Because Gao Shen said something to him.
"If you want to be the best player in the world, come to Real Madrid!"
Pogba is here!
The intensity of Buenaventura and Pintus' summer training camp is indeed very scary.
As early as when he was at Leeds United, Pogba had been mentioned and reported in the media.
Although he had been mentally prepared for the training, he realized that all his preparations were in vain.
Every training session by the advanced coaching staff is like squeezing out all your potential and limits, and sometimes you may even feel that you won't be able to hold on for the next second.
Especially long-distance running after a high-intensity training session is really challenging.
In fact, in the training sessions of the previous week, especially the last long-distance run, Pogba wanted to give up every time. He really couldn't run anymore. He gritted his teeth and couldn't run anymore.
But when he saw that everyone, including handsome young men like Isco and Verratti, were gritting their teeth and persisting, he felt that he could not lose.
Both of them are his competitors. They can persist, why can't he?
Besides, in terms of body, blood, and all aspects, his physical fitness and running ability should be better than theirs. How could he lose in the field where he is best and most confident?
With this belief and this energy, Pogba persisted.
So, gradually, he adapted.
And he also discovered that training under Sarri at Leeds United turned out to be so happy.
The training camp at Real Madrid is very tiring, not only physically but also mentally.
Analysis and summary after each training session, every mistake needs to be corrected and improved.
These are similar to Leeds United, and it will not be difficult for Pogba to adapt.
It's just that the teammates around him are too strong, and their brain circuits are too fast.
Especially in training, Pogba failed to keep up with many of their passing ideas, resulting in a lot of mistakes.
He mentioned this to Gao Shen, and Gao Shen gave him an idea.
invite to a meal!
"At Real Madrid, there is no problem that cannot be solved by inviting someone to a meal."
"If so, please give me two meals!"
So, like Illarramendi, Pogba wrote an invitation to treat on the blackboard.
Everyone arrived and they started hanging out with Pogba.
He discovered that Real Madrid during the dinner was very different from what he had imagined.
Cristiano Ronaldo looks very unruly, but in fact he is a very nice person. He will even chat with Pogba about things in the nightclub, including how to pick up girls in Madrid.
One of them is, "On non-match days, it is best not to go past 12 o'clock, otherwise, you will be punished to death by the boss tomorrow morning."
Why?
"Because he has spies everywhere in Madrid. Sometimes I even think that he might even know how many Durex you used with your girlfriend last night. You can't hide it."
Pogba felt that what they said was too scary.
Boss, what a good person that is, how is this possible?
But I have to say that treating guests to dinner is a really good way to get closer.
Gradually, Pogba became acquainted with them, and they began to tell him some of his habits in the game, some secret codes, and some of his preferences when playing football.
As time went by and as they became familiar with each other, Pogba gradually integrated into them.
He began to be able to cooperate with his teammates on the court.
Sometimes, it can even be that kind of continuous cooperation.
Pogba discovered that it is not difficult to keep up with the brain circuits of these geniuses.
And time passed by unconsciously.
The new season is about to start.
At this time, Gao Shen called him to his office again.
…
"I heard that you moved into a new house?"
As soon as he sat down, Gao Shen started chatting casually about his family affairs.
Pogba smiled and nodded, "It's in La Finca. It's a lot of money to rent for a year."
The La Finca community is in the western suburbs of Madrid. It is a new wealthy community. Cristiano Ronaldo and others live there.
Many young people like to live there, all of which are single-family villas.
"It's good. Keep working harder and perform better. I'll apply for a contract renewal for you later, and then I'll buy one myself." Gao Shen encouraged.
Pogba nodded heavily, he really thought so.
Gao Shen chatted with him again, talking about some trivial daily matters, including getting along with his teammates in the team, the situation at home, etc.
This is because Gao Shen remembered that Pogba's brother didn't seem to be a reliable person, so he paid more attention to him.
When the time was almost up, Gao Shen started to get to the point.
"Next week, we will play Barcelona at home, so I will consider starting you in this league game this weekend."
Pogba looked at Gao Shen with some surprise. Starting the first game of the new season? And it was at home.
"Is there any problem?" Gao Shen looked at Pogba's expression and asked.
Pogba immediately shook his head again. He was confident in his own strength.
Gao Shen smiled.
Whether in memory or as I know him now, Pogba actually has a big heart.
As Gao Shen often says, this is what a top star must possess.
"As we emphasize in daily training, our midfielder is as important as the heart, and you will be the player we rely on most in this game." Gao Shen looked at Pogba and said with expectation.
.
Pogba felt the weight of Gao Shen's words, and also felt the coach's ardent expectations for him.
"Don't worry, boss, I won't disappoint you."
"I believe it." Gao Shen said with a smile, "When the time comes, let the entire Bernabeu fans and everyone in the world see your strength!"
Pogba nodded solemnly.
…
Watching Pogba leave, Gao Shen also stood up and walked back to his desk.
Buenaventura has just submitted a report that Xabi Alonso's recovery is not as good as expected, and it is recommended to use Casemiro or Illarramendi in the first game.
Gao Shen himself thought about it for a while and finally chose Casemiro.
