Coward Buster

"See? Dejan is my good brother, he respects me a lot."

Mancini said with a smile.

"My brother is my brother, but that doesn't stop him from being a football scrub," Totti said.

Mancini: ...

"I'm Roberto Mancini, I've already played for the national team, and I scored a lot of goals last season!" Mancini said, sticking his neck out.

Today, he had to let this brat know his true ability.

"You wear number 10 and haven't even won a Golden Boot, and you dare call yourself a forward? No wonder the national team doesn't want you," Totti mocked.

"I'm Number 9.5, understand? Number 9.5?"

"Then don't wear number 10 if you have the guts. But the national team won't give you number 10 anyway."

Totti said.

Mancini was about to go crazy. He grabbed his hair and shouted, "Don't talk about the national team if you have the guts!"

"Fine, Sampdoria plays better without you, and Salzano moves better than you."

Totti pointed at the field and said.

Mancini: ...

Although he, Roberto Mancini, was a loyal and devoted person, he was willing to make an exception for this kid.

When this kid gets a girlfriend, no matter how much money or effort it takes, he'll definitely cuckold him!

Damn it!

Chiesa had already stepped onto the sidelines.

Enrico Chiesa had a feeling that he was specifically there to be substituted off for Dejan Lu.

But thinking about potentially being loaned out, staying with the team just to be subbed on wasn't too bad.

Currently, based on how the coach was using Dejan Lu, he should get quite a few appearances in a season.

The Roma players clearly had a mental issue.

Their passing speed had increased significantly.

But they didn't have the technical skill to match.

As soon as Giannini received the ball, he felt like he couldn't control it.

Seeing this, Dossena immediately rushed forward and kicked the ball. Giannini instinctively tried to get the ball back, and the ball happened to hit his leg and go out of bounds.

"Throw it, hurry!"

Pari reminded him.

Seeing this, Dossena rushed to the sideline and snatched the ball from the ball boy.

He directly threw the ball to Dejan Lu, who was coming to receive it. Dejan Lu twisted his body and swung his right foot.

Bang—

The ball flew straight from the left to the right.

Roma's defenders were still focused on Vialli. At this moment, they realized that Salzano had already sprinted into the penalty area.

Cervone immediately dove and stretched out his foot, narrowly blocking Salzano's shot out for a corner.

"Coach, am I going on?"

Chiesa turned and asked. The fourth official also looked at Boskov.

"Wait a bit longer."

"Wait for what?" Chiesa instinctively asked.

"Wait for a goal!"

Boskov said directly, his eyes never leaving Roma's penalty area.

Dossena walked directly to the corner flag. The players on both sides were not giving an inch inside the penalty area.

Sampdoria had scored quite a few goals from corners recently, and Roma didn't want to concede another one.

"Make some space for me, don't block my view."

Cervone shouted.

He shoved Pellegrini.

This kid was so close to him, was he trying to collide with the goalkeeper?

Pellegrini wanted to argue, but he was quickly warned by the referee.

Most leagues did not allow physical contact with the goalkeeper during set pieces. If Arteta's Arsenal were transplanted to Serie A of this era, they probably wouldn't even secure fourth place.

Dossena took a run-up and took the corner kick.

At the near post, Antonio Comi jumped up immediately, but he missed the ball.

Not only that, but he also affected the players in front of the goal, and players from both sides leaped up.

Sebastiano Nela quickly shook his head and headed the ball out.

The ball flew directly towards the edge of the penalty area.

Dejan Lu, who was preparing to leave the field, saw this and raised his right foot, flicking the ball towards the penalty area with the inside of his instep and turning to sprint.

Mauro was a step slower, and Dejan Lu adjusted his stride inside the penalty area. Players from both sides watched as Dejan Lu's right foot again struck the bottom of the ball.

Whoosh—

Clean and sharp.

The ball sailed over the heads of multiple players from both sides and went straight into the net from under the post.

The Roma goalkeeper Cervone remained in his bent-over ready position.

He was the biggest backdrop today.

"Substitution, direct substitution! The Roma players are planning something dirty!" Boskov rushed to the sideline and shouted at Chiesa.

The fourth official couldn't help but glance over.

Chiesa couldn't help but feel a little resentful.

He was also a young talent, wasn't he?

Was he coming onto the field just to bear the brunt of the Romans' anger for Dejan Lu?

However, he still had to come on.

Chiesa immediately began twisting his waist on the sideline, at least doing some stretching so he wouldn't get injured if he was fouled.

If he had a son in the future, he would definitely tell his son that it's better to be the boss in a small team than a subordinate to someone else.

"Good luck, Enrico."

Dejan Lu patted Chiesa's arm and walked towards the sideline.

"Go back and take a shower. The weather has turned cold recently, and you might catch a cold," Boskov said, leaning in.

Dejan Lu didn't refuse.

Italy had indeed changed.

According to the rules, he should have been on the bench with his teammates, munching on sunflower seeds. However, things could be flexible. Was a player who got injured still supposed to sit on the bench?

He had communicated with Boskov, and the Italian media probably wouldn't fabricate news like "Dejan substituted early, returns to locker room in anger."

After showering, Dejan Lu remembered Mancini, who was sitting in the stands.

He looked for a long time but couldn't find him, so he borrowed the stadium's phone.

"Why did you come to the home fans' stands?"

Dejan Lu asked in a low voice after sitting down.

This was a bit too daring.

"I just wanted to challenge them," Mancini said.

"He probably bought the wrong ticket."

Totti said.

"Shut up!"

Mancini snapped.

Totti sneered, "Dejan, if you want to win everything, the first thing you should do is not be teammates with people like him."

"It seems you two already know each other."

Dejan Lu said with a smile.

He didn't expect the Wolf King to have such high aggression.

"You said before you'd introduce me to Marco Lanna. Isn't he a defender?"

Totti changed the subject.

He was also afraid that Mancini would actually hit him, as he was an adult.

"Never mind, you two are different."

Dejan Lu said.

Lanna was a genuine sycophant, he should be sitting at the same table as Yamal, Felix, and Icardi.

Totti, on the other hand, was just unknowingly cuckolded hundreds or thousands of times, it wasn't his intention.

"I've thought about it, and I still want to stay at Roma."

Totti said.

His whole family were Roma fans.

"No one wants you to come to Genoa," Mancini sneered.

Totti didn't speak.

"Then stay in Rome. If you get into trouble, let me know, and I'll help you," Dejan said, patting Totti's shoulder with a smile, while inwardly offering his condolences to De Rossi.

He couldn't escape fate after all.

Sigh, you can't be a vice-captain forever.

In the end, Sampdoria won the match 5-0 against their opponent.

Rome received five yellow cards and two red cards.

After the game, it was already past midnight, and the entire team returned to the hotel together.

They still had to take a bus for over 500 kilometers tomorrow.

Dejan, unable to sleep, opened the system and immediately saw a notification.

[Your brother, Francesco Totti, has received a gift from fate.]

This kid, he considered King Lu a brother after their first meeting. He was so trusting, no wonder.

Fortunately, King Lu was a good person.

He continued reading.

[Totti still chose to stay in Rome, as it was the city of his birth. As your fanboy, Totti gradually mastered more than two playing styles on the field, making him even more unpredictable.]

[Off the field, the handsome Totti was adored by countless fans, both male and female. However, he still didn't listen to your advice to study properly, and Totti jokes became a staple of newspaper entertainment.]

[Just like the Totti jokes, Brasi still appeared in Totti's life. The Roman Prince fell again. High-level 'green tea' is not something a joke protagonist can handle. He once again became Brasi's prey, and the TV anchor became the object of envy for most women on the Apennines.]

[However, after your reminder, Totti quickly discovered the problem. He wasn't smart, but he knew who the good people were. Following your advice, Totti didn't make a scene immediately. Instead, he took precautions to prevent being blackmailed because of the child. At the same time, he pretended to win a big overseas travel prize after eating Monica's burger and took the opportunity to ask for your help in installing advanced and hidden surveillance equipment at home.]

[When he returned home, he acted as if nothing had happened. He even found another love because of this unjust situation. Having learned deeply from you, Totti didn't rush to end this marriage but silently collected evidence.]

[Finally, one day, the success of the Paris Hilton videotapes gave Totti inspiration. Since he had already been "hat-tricked" so many times, why not use this incident to benefit himself? With so many people involved, this kind of thing would be exposed sooner or later anyway. Totti, through an intermediary, sold all the home surveillance footage. The proceeds from these videotapes exceeded 20 million US dollars.]

[Because of the videotape incident, Totti's divorce case went very smoothly, and Brasi was left with almost nothing. Just as people were sympathizing with the Wolf King, they were surprised to discover that this symbol of Rome was appearing publicly on the street with a lady. Even more surprising was that the two of them had a child around ten years old. Calculating the timeline, the child was born less than two years after Totti's marriage. The entire Apennines had a new understanding of the Wolf King, who was not highly educated.]

[One day, Mancini, who had become a coach, led Inter Milan to victory against Rome. Instead of celebrating wildly, he rushed towards Totti, swinging his fists, his speed even faster than in his youth. The Roman players were about to help when they heard their captain shouting as he ran: "Calm down, calm down, I'm your brother-in-law..."]

This skill.

Does this mean King Lu will specialize in being a confidant for footballers who have been cuckolded in the future?
