Fox in the Penalty Area Chapter 221

"Congratulations, Jay! Your goal is really beautiful! Although all the media praises Hu, your goal is just as important. After all, without your ball, Leeds would just play against the Stan Park Rangers. It's a 3:3 level..."

Jay Adams interrupted the excited chatter of his agent on the phone: "There is no such thing, Oliver. You have to be clear, without my goal, Hu might be the first in Stan Park in 76 years. A quartet player...don't underestimate his ability to score goals."

"Ha, of course, that's what I said." The agent Oliver DeWitt on the other end of the phone sounded in a good mood. "One more thing, Jay. Bernard is injured. You have to seize this opportunity and try to be able to participate in the World Cup!"

Although he became famous very early and debuted early, there is a cold knowledge about Jay Adams: He has not participated in the World Cup until now...

Because of his outstanding performance in Leeds this season, the agent Oliver DeWitt certainly hopes that he will be selected for the England team with this performance and participate in the World Cup in the United States and Canada in June this year.

"Oliver..." Adams sighed, "Of course I hope to participate in the World Cup, but you say that, how do you want me to pick it up? Say I am very happy that Bernard's injury gave me a chance to participate in the World Cup?"

"Uh... Blame me, blame me." Agent DeWitt also realized that this matter could not be discussed in such a frivolous tone.

"Anyway, I don't think about the World Cup now. I just want to be able to play well in the club. You don't want to say those things on the Internet, have you heard, Oliver?"

"OK, OK. No problem, don't worry, Jay. I won't trouble you..."

After hanging up the phone, Jay Adams looked down at the news on the phone:

"...Harry Bernard hit the goal post in order to save the ball against Leeds and suffered a serious knee meniscus injury... At present, there is no further treatment plan for his knee meniscus injury. But according to other serious meniscus injuries in the past. From the subsequent recovery cases, it will take at least three to five months to recover... Even if he can play, it will be difficult for him to recover to his best physical condition... As the core of England's midfielder, even if he is only absent. The training camp before the World Cup will have a great impact on the team's performance..."

"Currently we have three sets of treatment plans. The first set is conservative treatment. This set has the fastest recovery speed and only takes two to six weeks, but the risk is the greatest and the hidden dangers are the most. I personally don't recommend it..."

In the team doctor's office of the Stan Park Rangers Club, team doctor John Lillis is introducing the current situation to the team's head coach Brooks and player Harry Bernard, who is sitting in a wheelchair.

"The second option is to remove the meniscus, so that it only takes two months to return to the court. But there will also be great risks in the future. So I personally recommend the third option-suture surgery. Once the operation is successful, It will take three to five months to recover. If the recovery goes well, maybe you can come back three weeks in advance..."

Harry Bernard interrupted Lilis' words: "Three to five months? Let's make a compromise, even if the recovery period is four months. Then when I recover, the World Cup will begin. Doesn't this mean I want to miss the World Cup?"

Lillis glanced at head coach Brooks, then nodded to Bernard: "You will have to give up the World Cup after surgery, Harry."

"That won't work, I can't give up the World Cup." Bernard shook his head and said in a very firm tone. "I choose the second plan to remove the meniscus."

"But Harry... the meniscus is equivalent to a bumper for the knee, and it is an important part of reducing the impact of bones and joints. The removal of the meniscus means that your physical function will be greatly reduced, and your career will also be reduced. Shorten..." Team doctor Lilis explained quickly.

Bernard waved his hand: "I know what effect the removal of the meniscus will have on my body, John. There will also be many hidden dangers in my future career. But the problem is that if I miss this World Cup, you think four years later, Will I be able to participate in the World Cup again when I am thirty-seven?"

Hearing him say this, Lillis was silent.

Yes, this year is likely to be the 33-year-old Bernard's last chance to participate in the World Cup. Four years later, at the age of 37, after this injury, whether he can maintain a good competitive form and get the chance to participate in the World Cup...It's really hard to say.

Whether it is conservative treatment, removal of the meniscus, or surgical suture, for Bernard, who is thirty-three years old, the damage to the body is huge and irreversible.

"More importantly, I am the captain of England, but I can't participate in the World Cup. How big is the impact on the team? Anyway, there are not a few years left in my professional career. I used the risks of these years to exchange for a participation. I think the chance of the World Cup is very cost-effective." Bernard finished his choice calmly.

Lillis was speechless, seeing that Bernard could not be persuaded, so he cast a look at Brooks for help.

Brooks opened his mouth and said: "Harry, there are no outsiders here, you don't have to maintain the image in the eyes of that other person..."

Bernard is a little sensitive to this sentence: "I didn't maintain my image, boss. I've always been that kind of person. Anyone who knows me knows that I never act. My team needs me. I can't be here. Leave them alone at the time."

Brooks shrugged: "Yes, you are the captain of the team, of course the team needs you. But do you think that after removing the meniscus, doesn't it have any effect on the team? You hurt the knee meniscus. It's not **** thumbs and toenails!"

Bernard was stunned.

There is a fact that he cannot avoid, that is, he was seriously injured after all, and his body can no longer return to its previous condition.

"Listen to me, Harry. Underwent surgery and rest in peace. As long as you recover well, you can also be selected for the England team to participate in the World Cup in four years..."

Lilis secretly breathed a sigh of relief. He felt that if there was a head coach, he would definitely be able to convince Bernard.

I don't think Bernard still shook his head and said, "No, boss. Even if you say, I'm so lucky that I won't have any major problems in the next four years, but it's nothing more than being a spectator on the bench. That's it."

Even Brooks was surprised by Bernard's attitude.

"Have you noticed the performance of Adams and Williams in yesterday's game, boss? Four years later, that England team will not have my position. In fact, I intend to finish this World Cup. Quit the England team. Then put all my energy on the club."

"Don't be impulsive, Harry!" Brooks was also anxious.

"I have been thinking about today since last night. I have thought about it in detail and everything, so I have no impulse, boss. I am not reconciled to end my national team career like this and bid farewell to the World Cup. I have to do the last fight." Bernard De has a firm attitude, as firm as his nickname, a tough guy, he doesn't know how to work around.

Facing Bernard who was as hard as steel, Brooks had nothing to say.

To persuade a professional player to give up what may be the last World Cup in his career, it is really difficult to succeed.

"... The Stan Park Rangers Club officially announced that Harry Bernard, who was seriously injured, will undergo surgery to remove the meniscus... This will greatly shorten his recovery time, enough to catch up with the World Cup opening in June... This news made many English fans breathe a sigh of relief. As the captain of the England team, if Bernard fails to participate in the World Cup, the blow to the team will be heavy and fatal..."

"Of course, some people think that Bernard's move is really risky. After the meniscus is removed, his physical condition will be affected and declined... Bernard explained that he made the decision after careful consideration~www .mtlnovel.com~ and said that no matter what the result is, he will not regret...we can only wish him good luck, and good luck to the England team..."

"In order to participate in the World Cup, I chose to remove the meniscus... Isn't this Bernard too hard?"

In the locker room of the training base, Hu Lai exclaimed at the news.

Pete Williams is not surprised at all: "This is what the'tough guy Harry' can do. Team interests are paramount, as for the individual... it doesn't matter. He is a very old-school player, the player he is now. Running out."

"Poor Adams, originally Bernard was injured, he is most likely to be selected as a substitute for the World Cup squad..." Charlie Porter glanced at Jay Adams in the distance and whispered.

Several young men looked secretly, Jay Adams was chatting with Ben Grist as usual, with no regrets on his face.

"Jay, would you not be reconciled if you didn't go to the World Cup in the end?" Ben Grist was asking Adams.

"Definitely. I think with my performance, I should be able to occupy a position in the England team, regardless of whether Bernard is injured or not."

Grist said with some worry: "Then Bernard chooses to remove the meniscus, he shouldn't miss the World Cup, but you just..."

"You fool, don't worry about this. Even if you can't go to this World Cup, I believe I will definitely be able to go to the next World Cup." Adams raised his hand and touched Grist's head and said with a smile.

Then he noticed the gaze from someone on the opposite side, and following the look, he saw Hulai, Williams, Potter, and Camara.

So he smiled and nodded to them.
