Chapter 552 The daily routine of the Dutch team: eating, sleeping and playing against Lao Heng



Just based on how often he comes every day...

It’s really cool.

Giggs had a very long peak period in his football career and was in very good physical condition, so this is why Giggs always came several times a day.

Of course, cheating is wrong after all. Sleeping with your brother's wife is even more wrong. And letting your lover marry your brother so that he can sleep with his brother's wife and make a tryst more convenient is even more wrong.

But leaving aside the moral factors, Giggs can indeed be called the strongest winger at the turn of the century.

Giggs was excellent in everything on the field. Not only did he have super fast speed, but he also had skillful dribbling skills, surgically precise passes, a domineering attitude of confrontation, and key shots whenever he could find an opportunity.

There is a reason why Sir Alex Ferguson prefers Giggs.

It can be said that since the Class of 92 era, Manchester United has had countless big-name players, but the real core of Manchester United is not Beckham, not Ronaldo, not Scholes, not Rooney, nor Nani, but only Giggs.

When talking about Giggs, we have to mention another super winger on the left side - the Flying Dutchman, the Little Flying Stick, no, Robben.

In terms of fame and influence, Robben is generally recognized to be higher than Giggs.

Robben's dribbling speed on the wing is definitely the best in the world and is undisputed.

However, being the king of the wing is not just about speed, it also depends on footwork, confrontation, overall vision, crossing, and so on.

Robben is faster than Giggs, his breakthroughs are sharper, more spectacular and more exciting.

On the other hand, Giggs's speed of breaking through the wing is also very fast, second only to Robben's. But at the same time, Giggs's breaking style is relatively stable. He does not seem to be in a hurry to put all his abilities on speed, but pays attention to controlling the rhythm. At the same time, he will use his flexible knees to perform dazzling line-changing dribbling. When breaking through with the ball, he will also pay attention to the overall situation, try his best to help his teammates open up space, and then find the most appropriate time to cross the ball.

Therefore, Robben is more like a charging warrior, full of recklessness and blood, which is very exciting to watch.

Giggs is more like an instigator and a leader, and he does not fight alone to show how outstanding he is.

Both of them are kings of the left side, but their styles are different.

Robben cut inside after a high-speed breakthrough, while Giggs was more likely to pass the ball from the bottom.

To put it another way - Robben is the ADC on the right side and Giggs is the support on the left side.

In terms of style alone, Giggs himself cannot be compared with Robben's popularity.

But this really doesn't mean that Giggs is worse than Robben.

Robben’s biggest problem is his poor physical condition. He has obvious glass man attributes, which is also the most troublesome problem for speed wingers. Once injured, his speed limit will drop.

If Robben had not been troubled by injuries, his achievements would have been even higher, far more than just titles like "King of the Wings" and "King of Cutting Inside".

Except for being inferior to Robben in speed and cutting inside, Giggs' physique is much better than Robben. In 2011, Giggs was already 37 years old, but he could still start in games like the FA Cup final, and he could sleep with his wife, sleep with a model, and then find time to sleep with his brother's wife.

In addition, Giggs' dribbling ability, ball control ability, organizational ability, passing ability, defensive ability, physical ability, and peak time are all better than Robben's.

Overall, Giggs is really not inferior to Robben.

There are two very big reasons why Giggs has not surpassed Robben in fame.

The first reason is the national team.

Robben is the pride of the Dutch. The strength of the Dutch team in the World Cup is obvious to all. They are a frequent visitor to the top eight, top four, and even the championship and runner-up competitions.

But Giggs has never participated in the World Cup finals.

Giggs is Welsh and has English citizenship. He can choose to play for England. If he chooses to play for the Three Lions, the strength of the England team will be greatly improved to a level that can reach the semi-finals. Giggs himself can also gain higher reputation with his performance in the World Cup. At least he can compete with Robben in terms of reputation in world-class competitions.

However, Giggs did not choose to play for England, but insisted on playing for his native Wales, even though Wales did not have other outstanding players during his peak period, even though Wales could not enter the World Cup finals, and even though Giggs did not have any personal experience of the World Cup.

What is this called? This is called loyalty.

Although a person who is extremely unfaithful in marriage seems to be unsuitable to use the word loyalty, Giggs is indeed truly loyal to Manchester United and his own country.

Poor personal morality, but excellent public morality.

Human beings are complex higher animals. They have a sense of morality, but they also have animality. Giggs is an example of someone who is both unfaithful to his wife and loyal to his country.

Of course, no matter what, Giggs, who has never participated in the World Cup, is indeed much less famous than Robben in this regard. In addition, Giggs is one man, one city, has never transferred, and has never been involved in transfer rumors. The only scandal is the negative scandal such as the sister-in-law scandal, so Giggs is even less famous than Robben.

Robben's negative news is at most fighting.

But is this kind of news still considered negative for the Dutch? In the Netherlands, the three sticks were used as positive news. At that time, the Dutch team's training routine was a fixed cycle of eating, sleeping, Sneijder and Robben exchanging stick techniques, Sneijder and Robben fighting Huntelaar, and then eating and sleeping.

In addition to being inferior to Robben at the national team level, Giggs is also inferior to Robben at the club level, or in terms of personal awards and personal value.

Robben was born in Groningen and has played for PSV Eindhoven, Chelsea, Real Madrid and Bayern, five clubs in total. Every transfer was a gorgeous rise, with his personal value and weekly salary growing exponentially.

Giggs started playing for Manchester United at the age of 14 until he was 41, one man for one city, and there was never any transfer rumor.

Without transfer rumors, there would be no popularity and no increase in value.

The one-man-one-city approach also completely ties his honors to Manchester United, and the number of trophies he wins is naturally the same as Manchester United.

Therefore, judging from fame, worth and awards alone, Giggs is too low-key and is far from Robben's level.

But if we compare the two of them at the same age and in the same peak period, Giggs' overall strength is indeed higher than Robben's.

Every club will pursue Robben, but if Giggs can also be transferred, most clubs will choose Giggs.

Even though he slept with his wife and then the model, he still found time to sleep with his brother's wife.
