53 The Meaning of Football (Part I)
Denilson slowly turned around and placed this little replica football ornament on the head of the bed across from him!
That's when he left Brazil, Mentor Terley? A gift from Santana, when he was given a gift, Terrey? Santana had high hopes for him.
"I hope you can one day win a real European Ballon d'Or!"
As long as he thinks of this loving and majestic teacher, Denilson has a face of respect, because it was he who excavated Denelson, it can also be said that he created Denilson, and even Denilson's joining Kaiserslautern came from his acquiescence.
"Is he okay now?" Denilson muttered to himself, but put down his luggage.
Coming to the bedside, Denelson grabbed the replica Golden Globe trophy at the head of the bed and carefully wiped the dust on it, he had forgotten about it for a long time, and only now did he remember it again.
"If you want to go to Europe, then you have to learn to persevere, learn to adapt, Brazil and Europe are two very different football worlds, there is the core of football in this world, but Europe has European styles and rules, if you can't adapt, or you don't want to adapt at all, then you can't succeed in Europe!"
Remembering what Santana had said when he went to leave, Denilson's heart struck a shock, for he felt that his mentor was like an unpredictable prophet, and what he said seemed to be a warning to him now.
Gently putting the trophy back, Denilson walked out of the apartment, went to the phone booth on the street downstairs, and dialed directly from Santana's home.
There was a beep in the phone, and then, just when Denelson thought it was going to go unanswered, he was arrested.
"Hey, find ...... Who? The voice on the other side of the phone was a little weak, even indistinct, but Denelson clearly recognized it as the teacher's voice.
"Mr. Santana, I'm Denilson? Morality? Oliveira! Denelson said with some excitement.
"Oh... It's you! Sounding a little disappointed on the other side of the phone, he sighed, "I didn't expect you to actually call!" ”
Denelson was surprised: "Why do you say that? ”
Santana smiled reluctantly, "Yang Cheng came to Brazil to see me a few days ago!" ”
Denilson was stunned, what was he doing in Brazil?
"Don't get me wrong, when I finalized your transfer before, I chatted with him for a long time, and left contact information between each other, some time ago I was unwell and went to the hospital, Yang Cheng came to Brazil to visit me after he knew about it, and we talked about you!"
Denilson was silent, and after a while, he suddenly remembered and asked with concern, "You went to the hospital?" What's the problem? Okay, no? ”
"I'm sick, the cerebral blood supply is insufficient, and now it's not very convenient to move, and it's a bit hard to speak!" Santana replied with a wry smile.
People who are all 65 years old, and there are problems everywhere all over their bodies, which really makes people think that they can't recognize their old age.
"Do you know what Yang Cheng said about you?" Santana asked.
Denilson was tempted to say whether he wanted to know or not, because in his opinion, Yang Cheng must have said a lot of bad things about him.
How do you know that Santana smiled and said: "He lied to me, he said that you have a good life in Germany, you have performed very well, and you have become a key player in the front court of the team, hehe, he must not know, I have always had the habit of reading the newspaper, I also paid attention to Kaiserslautern, and I paid more attention to you, and your agent also approached me to contact you to help you return to China." ”
"I know, Yang Cheng just doesn't want me to be disappointed, he wants me to be happy, and I thank him for his kindness, but when I heard the rumors that you were leaving Kaiserslautern, I was thinking, will you call me again?"
Denelson really felt the urge to cry at this moment, because he respected the old man so much, but ......
"No matter what happens to me in the future, you will always be the person I respect the most!" Denelson assured.
Santana smiled reassuringly, "I know, you're a good boy, Denilson, but I think you should listen to my advice, stay in Europe, and don't want to come back easily, otherwise your efforts will be wasted!" ”
As if having said so much and being a little hard, Santana took a few breaths before pausing before continuing: "Do you remember what I said to you on the day you came to leave? ”
"Hmm!" Denelson replied.
"Actually, I didn't say that, I talked to Yang Cheng when I talked to him, he has a lot of confidence in you, he always thinks that you can succeed in Europe, but the premise is that you have to take the initiative to adapt to the European style of football, like Ronaldo and others."
Denilson was completely stunned at this moment.
'He's a very special manager, young, passionate and ambitious, always knows exactly what he wants, so I always believe that you can succeed with his team because you have to adapt yourself to him!'
Santana's words made Denilson completely silent and entangled, because he found that the Yang Cheng in his impression seemed to be a little different from the Yang Cheng from Santana's mouth.
Which one is the real Yang Cheng?
…………

Hanging up Santana's phone, Denilson headed to Fritz with a stomach full of doubts? Tillingen behind the Walter Stadium.
Due to the team's consecutive draws, the fans left the stadium early, and the team was on holiday and the players were disbanded, and the whole Tilingen looked empty and lonely.
From a distance, I saw that on the training ground, Yang Cheng was leaning against the goalpost, sitting on the grass, thinking about something.
When Denelson came over, he immediately disturbed Yang Cheng.
The latter was a little surprised, he didn't expect Denelson to appear at this time.
"What's the matter?" Yang Cheng's tone was a little stiff, and his mood was not very good.
"I just called back to Brazil, me and Terei? Mr. Santana talked for a long time! Denilson crouched down, picked up the grass clippings from the ground, and held them in his hands.
Yang Cheng retracted his coldness and sighed with some regret.
Terrey? Santana, a master of art who deserves a lot of respect!
It has been said that there have only been two great men in the history of Brazilian football, one is the football king Pele, and the other is the great man in the field of coaching. Santana, it is he who made Brazilian football synonymous with art.
Zico, Socrates, Falcao and other bright stars are from his tune, and his Brazil is also known as the most powerful Brazil of all time, and even Pereira, Zagallo, Scolari and others agree that Santana is the most undoubted great man in Brazilian football.
"Some coaches are wise strategists, some coaches are charismatic leaders, and some are majestic fathers. Santana not only has the characteristics of these coaches, but even sublimates them, he has raised football to the level of art, and he has spread the influence of samba football art to the world! ”
"He's a role model for me too!"
Yang Cheng seemed to be talking to himself about his past life, and an authoritative media said that he was interested in Telai? Santana's evaluation, and it was only after reading these evaluations that Yang Cheng really got to know the head coach.
