Chapter 315 – Beyond the Legend (1)

315

Jorge just shrugged his shoulders at the explosive remarks, which would not be strange even if it became known to the public.

Shall we go here?
Judging by his reaction, I can see the potential without me having to say anything, and no matter how chaotic the situation is after the game, if the two of us are whispering together, I can’t help but pay attention.

When two superstars who are already attracting attention are whispering close to each other after a game, it is natural to look at them.

“Then see you next time.”

I walked away from him and organized my thoughts.

I don’t know why, but Jorge’s intention to transfer seems certain… It is also certain that Newcastle will not come here no matter how much they pour.

Once the decision to transfer is certain, except for Newcastle… The choices are narrowed down considerably.
It is said that there are many places to go as a player, but when you become a player like Jorge, there are fewer places to transfer to, so Jorge is an ordinary player.

Now only 27… No, he is the first player since Messi to win three consecutive Ballon d’Or titles at the young age of 26.
In addition, he is also a player who was recognized as an ace at Real Madrid.

With a player of this level, even the clubs that can be stabbed are limited.
No matter how much he doesn’t care about the salary or the league, the agent can’t either. As well as family and close friends.

Of course, it must be a financially rich club that can pay a ransom equivalent to the annual salary received at Real Madrid, and it must be a big club with a stature that can contain a player with a stature of that guy.

It also needs to be able to seriously aim for the Champions League, with enough power to satisfy the ambitious Jorge.

Well, this is it, as long as Jorge himself has the confidence to be able to carry, he may be lacking a bit… You must have the vision and financial power to be able to win in the long run.

In other words, meeting these conditions can only be limited to a few ‘big clubs’, and in the end, it means that Jorge has no choice but to choose.

I don’t know if he said he would give up his career and go to the Middle East or Chinese league, but unless someone threatens him with a knife, there’s no way that would happen.

In that sense, if you look at it roughly… Not even 5 options.
This is won There are 5 choices for the CSAT, but it would be fortunate if there were 5 choices here.

‘Besides, he’s Argentinian.’

Jorge, whose parents are Argentinians, spent his youth playing for Argentinian clubs.
Then he caught the eye of a scout and he signed for Athletic Club, better known as Athletic Bilbao in Spain.

This unique soccer team based on Basque pure-bloodism is a club where only players of “Basque blood” Can join.

In the 21st century, it may be said that it is pure blood in sports, but what can they do? Still, it’s not a tight-knit mess, but there is flexibility, such as admitting that even if you’re not of Basque blood or from Basque, you go through the Bilbao Youth, but… I want to see this as flexibility.

Anyway, Jorge grew up in Bilbao and made his La Liga debut at the age of 17.

The important thing here is that Jorge Garcia is Argentinian.
Messi’s homeland, Argentina.

Although they went through a “Bad breakup” In their later years, Barcelona’s status in South America, especially in Messi’s home country Argentina, is overwhelmingly higher than that of Real Madrid.

Of course, Jorge’s dream club is also Barcelona.
That’s the subject, but it’s questionable why he went to Real Madrid… Well, I guess the dream club is about ‘Barça even if I die!’.

By the way.
Things are pretty weird lately.

While Real Madrid, which had been on a winning streak, collapsed, Barcelona, ​​which collapsed, is reviving… What if Real’s ace goes to Barcelona?

Football fans love it so much that they die.
Real fan? Are you a real fan… Could there be more good news?

* * *

After crossing the big mountain called Real Madrid, Newcastle’s cruising continued.
In the league, in the cup competitions, in the Champions League.

Needless to say, Hong Min-joon is at the center of Newcastle’s propaganda.
Hong Min-joon’s performance was constant to the extent that ‘how many more goals he scored’ is now a matter of interest.

“This is Hong Min-jun, finally scoring the 50th goal in the 30th round of the league!!!”
“Aww!! History, the history of the EPL is being written here today!! Truly a living legend! This is Hong Min-jun, who is constantly breaking new records!!”
“For the first time in the history of the Premier League, we broke through the 40th goal in the league, became the top scorer for 5 consecutive years, scored 20 goals for 5 consecutive leagues, 30 goals for 4 consecutive leagues, and 40 goals for 3 consecutive leagues. “
“Now. Calm down. There are still seasons left, so it’s not 5 in a row, hee hee.”
“But it’s practically confirmed! We are more than 25 goals away from second place.”

The match against Man Utd was more concerned with whether Hong Min-joon would break through the 50th goal in the league than the match result.
It was Hong Min-jun, who was recording 47 goals and 15 assists in the league until the 29th round, so it was certain that he would break through 50 goals in the remaining games. It’s just a question of when that moment is.

The key was whether he scored his 50th goal by scoring a hat-trick against Manchester United, or whether he reached his 50th goal in the next or next game, but Hong Min-jun proudly completed a hat-trick against Manchester United in the 9th minute of the second half and climbed to the top of the 50th goal in the league. Stood

“Really… It’s an all-time scoring pace. In the 11/12 season, Lionel Messi scored 50 goals in 37 league games, setting an unbelievable record of 91 goals for the season? The record, which was thought to be an immortal record in modern football that will never be broken, finally meets its challenger for the first time after more than 20 years!”

Lionel Messi’s immortal record of 91 goals, which cannot be reproduced in modern football.
In fact, to be precise, it is not ’91 goals in a season’ but ’91 goals in a year’.

It’s not based on the 11/12 season, but from January to December 2012, that is, from the second half of the 11/12 season to the first half of the 12/13 season, the sum of the official game scores is 91 goals.

But that doesn’t overshadow Messi’s greatness.
Even in the 11/12 season alone, Messi scored 50 goals and 16 assists in 37 La Liga matches, 14 goals and 5 assists in 11 Champions League matches, as well as 73 goals in a total of 60 matches, including the Copa del Rey, Club World Cup, Super Cup, and Supercopa de España. 29 assists set an insane record.

If you add 12 goals and 1 help in 9 A matches here, 85 goals and 29 help in 69 games in the 11/12 season.
It becomes a ‘Legend of Legend’ record with over 100 attack points.

Truly G.O.A.T.
The number one player in modern football, a record that could be called a legend among legends—

“The most surprising thing about Hong Min-joon is that he missed a few games in the early part of the season by being selected for the Olympics. If you look at the horse’s 30 rounds, that’s 50 goals in 24 league starts. More than 2 goals per game!! Does this make sense!?”
“Yes, yes. Besides, Minjun Hong’s performance is not limited to the league. Didn’t he reach the 16th goal high with 4 goals and 1 assist against Real Madrid in the round of 16 of the Champions League? It is only one goal away from Ronaldo’s record of 17 goals. Although it is not easy to predict the outcome of the quarterfinal match against AT Madrid… I can’t imagine our Hong Min-jun not scoring a single goal in the first and second matches.”

It’s just a stepping stone to Hong Min-joon, a genius of incompetence.

“If you make it to the finals! If Newcastle make it to the final, they have five games left. This means that Hong Min-jun can break the Champions League record for most goals.”

We haven’t even played the quarterfinals of the Champions League yet, but people’s eyes have already gone to the distant final.

“Ah~ I’m really looking forward to it. By the way, we can’t forget the cup competition record, right? In the FA Cup and League Cup, he has scored 6 goals and 1 assist in 4 matches so far. Apparently, the cup competition is of relatively low importance, so the coach only gives a break, or even if he participates, he does not let him play full-time, and it is a little low.”
“It’s low, but it’s two attack points per game. This is so… Is this a poor record? It’s a standard that only applies to Hong Min-jun, really.”

The season is coming to an end, but Hong Min-joon’s stats are 72 goals and 22 assists in 36 games, with more than 10 games remaining.

The goal is already one goal away from Lionel Messi’s club-standard season record, and the Champions League’s most goals is only one goal away from Ronaldo’s 17 goals.

Considering the remaining games and the pace of accumulating attack points, Messi and Ronaldo’s record breaking is certain unless Hong Min-joon suffers an injury that will be out for the rest of the season tomorrow or his form is extremely poor.

With the 2038 World Cup two months ahead, all the eyes of the soccer world… No, the world’s attention was focused on Hong Min-joon’s toes.

To the moment when a legend, no more than a legend, is born.
