屎波可以練,但心態決定境界——昔日紅魔中場醉駕被新特蘭解約

一直都有唔少大球會青訓出品起初表現搶眼,年紀輕輕就為一隊上陣,但之後越踢越沉,慢慢消失喺大家視線。能夠喺大球會如曼聯,由青訓系統提升到一隊,兼得到上陣機會,天份一定唔會差得去邊,最終表現不似預期,原因以傷患同心態居多,當然都有際遇因素,甚至一開始就被高估,不過個人傾向認為年輕球員喺大球會爭扎求存已經唔易,能夠突破重重難關上到一隊應該「爛船都有三斤釘」,所以相信前面三個因素較為重要。


以下呢位仁兄喺越踢越沉嘅大球會青訓產品之中,算係比較好彩,因為佢起碼係踢緊英冠球隊、英格蘭老牌球會新特蘭,香港球迷少睇英冠,但當地有好多人睇。佢就係前曼聯中場吉遜 (Darron Gibson) 。


現年30歲嘅吉遜,17歲先加入曼聯二隊,18歲就首次為一隊喺聯賽盃上陣,喺2005-06球季係曼聯預備隊取得三冠嘅主力成員,2008-09球季以21歲之齡分別喺英超及歐聯首次上陣。不過老實講,印象中佢喺曼聯多年表現只係平平,最令人深刻可能係分別喺歐聯八強同四強入過波,離隊前共為紅魔上陣過31場。後來佢喺2011-12季中轉投愛華頓,應該係比較適合佢級數嘅球隊,的確得到莫耶斯重用,一度成為球隊核心之一。


不過自從吉遜喺2013-14球季膝部重傷,喺拖肥就慢慢由主力陣容淡出,最後喺2016-17季中加盟新特蘭。今年三月中,吉遜因為駕駛期間撞到路邊私家車,被揭發懷疑醉酒駕駛,於4月17日需要出庭應訊。喺佢被捕第二日,新特蘭發聲明指,查明事件之前,要求吉遜停賽,又話球會十分重視球員紀律,將會對於類似事件嚴厲處理。


直至3月31日,新特蘭官方再次發出聲明,表示經過對吉遜嘅停賽之後,雙方已經達成解約協議。吉遜同新特蘭合約本來喺今個夏天到期。翻查新聞,原來吉遜並非第一次醉酒惹事,喺17-18球季開始前,一段影片於網上流傳,佢喺飲酒之後批評球隊是 "shit" ,又鬧隊友:

引用“We’re fucking shit,” he said, before being asked whether that bothered him. “Of course I am [bothered]. I don’t want to be shit. There are too many people are the club who don’t give a fuck.”

Asked to whom he was referring, he replied: “You tell me”, and appeared to suggest that Lamine Koné, Jeremain Lens and Wahbi Khazri were among those not pulling their weight for Sunderland, who were relegated to the Championship last season after finishing bottom of the Premier League.

Gibson responded, “Right, there’s one,” when the name of Koné was put to him; when Lens and Khazri were mentioned he responded “Next one” on both occasions.

When it was put to Gibson that drinking after a heavy defeat did not necessarily present the most committed picture, he said: “Right, I might be off my face in here but I still want to play for Sunderland. The rest of them fucking don’t though, the rest of them don’t.”

雖然佢喺影片中表明雖然球隊不濟,但仍然願意為球隊效力,不過都顯示出佢有紀律問題。傷患同心態,吉遜兩樣都中,唔知佢下一家球會係咩級數呢?
