Chapter 993 He's back!

Yang Huanzhuo was standing aside, and couldn't help coughing twice when he heard the man in the white coat say such horrible things.

"Romeo, stop talking nonsense and get to the point!"

The man in the white coat named Romeo was a little embarrassed. He just wanted to show off in front of Young Master Huan.

But he still obeyed obediently and nodded, "Yes, Master Huan."

Then he looked at the crowd, "After we tested Messi, our research center found that Messi's right foot has not fully recovered and there are great hidden dangers. His left foot also has huge hidden dangers. If he is allowed to play right away, with the intensity of the Premier League, he will definitely be injured again within five games."

At this moment, Neuer immediately understood why the Saints had kept Messi out of the game from the very beginning.

Southampton's research center is not only world-class in medical care and data analysis, but also in injury prevention. Even American rugby clubs often come here to exchange ideas and learn.

So, if the people in the research center predict that Messi will suffer a serious injury to his left foot, then there is no doubt about it.

With so many people in the team, who hasn't benefited from this system?

When the research center first implemented this system, everyone found it annoying because after every training session and game, everyone had to undergo testing≦♂,..., and submit data. Sometimes even how much you urinated had to be tested, which was really annoying.

But gradually, as the system continues to improve and become more advanced, everyone benefits more and more from it.

By now, every player would probably feel uneasy if they left this system.

With it, players can understand their bodies more clearly and directly at any time and anywhere, even down to the details of what they can and cannot eat at each meal, whether they can do bad things with their wives and girlfriends at night, etc.

I don’t know when it started, but everyone has become dependent on it!

Without it, it would be a disaster.

"In the past period of time, we have developed a complete recovery training program for Messi to help him adjust his body, and now we have achieved quite good results, but we think it is not time for him to return to the game yet."

As soon as Romeo in the white coat finished speaking, head coach Ancelotti spoke.

"Yes, thank you Romeo and the medical colleagues for all their efforts, but the information we have in our coaching staff now shows that Messi is in very good physical condition and he is very eager to play."

When Ancelotti said this, sports psychology expert Dan Abraham nodded in agreement.

"Yes, I have been talking to him every day in the past few days. I can see that he has reached the limit of his tolerance. The reports from the outside media and the fans' irritability have brought him pressure. He needs to release the pressure and needs to play games."

After listening to this, Neuer looked at the people around him and decided to speak up.

"As the captain of the team, I would like to thank Romeo and all the experts for their efforts on behalf of the team. But I think that as professional players, we cherish our bodies more than anyone else. But many times, if we take a little risk appropriately, I don't think anything big will go wrong."

"On the contrary, as a professional player, I think that appropriate competitions can definitely stimulate the players' physical mechanisms, because all the training we have received since childhood is for competitions. Without competitions, what good will it do even if the body is in good shape?"

Neuer's personal testimony is still very convincing.

After listening to this, Yang Huan nodded and looked at Marcus du Satoy.

"Marcus, what do you think?"

Marcus Du Satoy glanced at everyone and nodded, "I agree with everyone's opinion. Maybe we are too cautious, but I think it is not unreasonable because Messi is the biggest star our team has ever signed. We cannot afford to make mistakes, especially with Kaka's previous experience at Real Madrid."

Everyone understood.

It should be said that the Premier League has no experience in successfully signing superstars from other leagues.

More than a decade ago, Manchester United signed Veron from Serie A, and later Chelsea signed Shevchenko from AC Milan. The deals for these two superstars eventually failed.

Although Manchester City later introduced David Silva and Aguero, everyone knows that these two players were still a long way from becoming superstars when they landed in the Premier League.

As for Tottenham Hotspur's introduction of Cristiano Ronaldo, the Portuguese himself is from the Premier League, and his physical fitness is also very suitable for the Premier League, so the risk is extremely low.

But Messi doesn't need to do that. In the past few years, he has been like a porcelain doll. Although he has been overused, he has always been carefully protected. Therefore, the people in the research center dare not be careless.

In fact, they don't want to make even the slightest mistake.

"OK!" Yang Huan nodded. He knew that he had to make this decision.

Because he is the boss of the Saints and everyone is responsible to him. If he doesn't do it, who will?

"Then let's do this. Let Messi play a game first. The medical department will arrange for someone to follow up and monitor him. If there is any problem, they will stop it immediately. The coaching staff also needs to cooperate in this regard. What do you think?"

Ancelotti nodded without hesitation, "We have no problem!"

"We too!"

Marcus du Satoy looked at his colleague and nodded, "We agree, Master Huan!"

"Okay, that's it, let Messi play, but before that we'd better keep it secret and keep a low profile."

But Yang Huan knew in his heart that the British media, especially those tabloid reporters, would not give face to anyone. As long as it could boost sales, they would dig out whatever the British Prime Minister was wearing.

If they had known in advance that Messi was going to play, who knows what would happen.

…………

…………

Following Master Huan's decision, every department of the club began to operate around this decision.

First, the medical department and the coaching staff drew up a plan. It can be seen that Ancelotti was already impatient, so he decided to arrange Messi's debut in the match against Chelsea.

The team leader Mathieu Le Tissier was immediately notified.

The Saints legend will lead the team to an away game and also have to go through a series of game procedures.

So, after receiving the notification from the coaching staff, Mathieu Le Tissier found Messi who had just arrived at the club early the next morning.

When the Argentine superstar heard this, he was stunned.

"Matthew, what did you say?" He looked at the team leader in front of him in disbelief. "You said...you said I would be scheduled to play? Against Chelsea?"

"Haha, yes, Leo, at least that's the news I received!" Matthew Le Tissier nodded. "For more details, I'm afraid you'll have to communicate with Carol to find out."

So, Messi quickly rushed to the head coach's office on the second floor of the first-team training building.

But in this office that originally belonged to Bielsa, the fat Italian man was not seen, but he was seen setting up the training ground through the window, so Messi immediately rushed downstairs again.

"Hey, sir, I heard that I... can play?" Messi was a little out of breath.

He ran so fast!

Ancelotti laughed when he saw him like this, and nodded, "Yes, Leo, Master Huan personally persuaded the medical department, and they agreed to let you play, but you have to accept their testing at any time."

"No problem, no matter how they test it, it's fine!" Messi became excited.

As long as he can play in the game, let alone being tested, even if he needs a closed injection, there is no problem.

The days without competitions are so damn depressing!

"You look like you're holding back all your energy, Leo!" Ancelotti said with a smile.

This is a good thing, proving that Messi has a strong desire to fight now and his condition must be extremely good.

"You used to be a professional player, sir, you should know how much I want to return to the football field!" Messi said lightly.

Ancelotti nodded. He was also a professional player and had also suffered injuries, so he could understand Messi's situation.

Even Messi is different from everyone else now because he came to Southampton with a sky-high halo but has never played a full game for the Saints.

But his arch-rival, Cristiano Ronaldo, is in great form, which invisibly puts huge pressure on Messi.

"Okay, but before we go on stage, let's make a gentleman's agreement."

"You say!" Messi nodded. As long as he could play in the game, he would say anything.

"The medical department will arrange for someone to follow you. You and we will have to cooperate with him. They are thinking about your health."

"I understand!" Messi nodded.

Apart from feeling depressed about not being able to participate in the game, Messi is really grateful to the medical department.

During the time he has been with the Saints, his physical recovery has been quite good. Even his right foot, which had been ravaged by injuries, seems to have returned to its pre-injury state, which makes him very excited.

"Also, you need to read this report carefully."

After saying that, Ancelotti took a thick document from his son and stuffed it into Messi's hands.

"What is this, sir?" Messi was stunned.

He is a football player, why does he need to study?

"Everything about your body is in here, even a lot of secrets, so... you know..."

Ancelotti's words immediately made Messi's expression serious.

"This was compiled by the medical department overnight. Take a good look at it. It may help you."

Messi nodded heavily, feeling a little touched in his heart.

The biggest impression he got from the Saints' employees was professionalism. Every department and every employee was very professional.

They each performed their duties and fulfilled their responsibilities, and together they maintained the Saints as a top team.

It is a very happy thing to play in such a team.

Because you don't need to worry about anything else, just play well, and everything else will be taken care of by dedicated professionals.

Therefore, many people who left the Saints miss the days of playing for this team, and many people even said again and again that they hope to have the opportunity to return to this team in their careers.

At least at this moment, Messi truly felt that being able to play for such a team in his life was a very satisfying thing.

"Okay, Leo, hurry back to the locker room and get ready. The game is tomorrow, and we need to practice tactics today."

When Messi heard this, he was ignited and nodded heavily.

"I can guarantee, Leo, tomorrow night at Stamford Bridge, you will surprise the whole world, and everyone who has doubted you, and let them all see your charm as the world's top star!"

Ancelotti couldn't help laughing at the end.

As a head coach, he can be said to have no regrets in his life, having coached two of the world's top superstars, Cristiano Ronaldo and Messi.

As for Stamford Bridge, Ancelotti has not forgotten how he was dismissed in disgrace.

Now, he is back!
