A local genius ruined by his personality, he was comparable to Sun Jihai at the age of 19, angered Xu Genbao at the age of 21, and retired at the age of 25

Character determines destiny, this truth that has long been said to be rotten by the world, but it can be applied to any era and any environment, let alone Chinese football. Throughout the history of Chinese football, I don't know how many local geniuses have been ruined by their personalities, leaving a place of lamentation. In addition to the star players such as Dong Fangzhuo and Zhang Xiaorui, who are familiar to fans, Wu Jun's deeds are also very representative:

Wu Jun was born in Dalian on October 8, 1977. As we all know, Dalian at that time can be called China's football city, and I don't know how many excellent players have been trained. Wu Jun was born and raised in Sisi, naturally affected by the environment, and has a special love for football since childhood. Taking advantage of the spare time of the Experimental Primary School in Xigang District, Dalian City, I sweated like rain on the green field.

Coincidentally, Sun Jihai, who is about the same age as Wu Jun, also studied at the Xigang District Experimental Primary School. Not only in the same school, but also in the same teacher's door to learn football skills. In other words, these two are like fake brothers.

Wu Jun's stubborn character has been reflected as early as his childhood. According to Zhang Bin, a teacher he shared with Sun Jihai, "He can't listen to what others say, he thinks it's good, how it's good, what he thinks is bad, what others can't say." ”

This kind of personality, there are good and bad. On the bad side, this personality can easily clash with others and turn small things into big things. Although Wu Jun will not take the initiative to bully others, as long as others provoke him, he will not finish with others. According to Teacher Zhang Bin, among the children he brought, Wu Jun's fights were famous. Similarly, Wu Jun is also the one who has been hit the most by Zhang Bin.

This kind of personality will obviously delay Wu Jun's development, even if it is Wu Jun himself, he admits this. He once said personally: "I am willing to drill the tip of the horn, for the sake of the sharp, but also to do, the character really delayed me a lot." ”

However, everything has advantages and disadvantages, and this personality also has a good side. As long as it is something that Wu Jun believes, he is particularly persistent. For example, in training, those boring basic movements, many children of the same age will choose to cope with things, but Wu Jun practiced repeatedly and steadily, over and over again, as long as the coach does not shout stop, he will not stop. So much so that once Coach Zhang Bin forgot to shout to Wu Jun to stop, and as a result, when Coach Zhang Bin remembered this, Wu Jun was about to practice and collapse, but this stubborn child still insisted on practicing there, and there was no idea of stealing and slipping...

It is with this dedication, coupled with his already good football talent, Wu Jun quickly stood out among his peers and became a member of the Dalian Wanda team with Sun Jihai.

Everyone may only remember Sun Jihai's young dezhi, who became the main force of the Dalian Wanda team at a young age. But few people remember that Wu Jun is also a model of juvenile devotion, and in 1996, when Wu Jun was 19 years old, he had become a regular in the starting lineup of Dalian Wanda. The two men, one at left-back and the other at right-back, are equally youthful and fearless, shining on the pitch.

Although the future achievements of these two people are not the same, in 1996, the 19-year-old Wu Jun was definitely comparable to his peer Sun Jihai.

Let me ask, these two people are the same age, the same is the main force of dalian Wanda team, the same talented supernova, the same is the focus of the team's training object, and even the position on the field echoes, if this can not be defined as "shoulder to shoulder", then what can be regarded as "shoulder to shoulder"?

It is worth mentioning that in the eyes of some connoisseurs, Wu Jun will even be stronger than Sun Jihai in some aspects. Even Sun Jihai himself has personally admitted that Wu Jun's talent is excellent and his skills are excellent.

But just as Wu Jun was preparing to make a big show, his personality was delaying his career. Not long after Xu Genbao took over the Dalian Wanda team, Wu Jun had a lot of trouble with his manager.

In a training session, Xu Genbao asked the players not to carry the ball, but to pass the football out. Wu Jun was on his head, ignoring Xu Genbao's order and taking the ball to the penalty area, which made Xu Genbao very annoyed. Therefore, Xu Genbao took the initiative to whistle and let Wu Jun stop. However, Sun Jihai on the side also performed the same operation as Wu Jun, not only with the ball, but also with a kick, Xu Genbao did not react at all.

After seeing Sun Jihai's operation, Wu Jun once again came up with the ball and was once again stopped by Xu Genbao's whistle. This made the stubborn Wu Jun very angry, and loudly asked his coach why he only blew him alone. In this way, the relationship between the two generals created a rift.

Of course, the above incident can only be regarded as an unpleasant vignette, far from reaching the point of angering Xu Genbao. The incident in which Wu Jun really angered Xu Genbao occurred in 1998, when he was 21 years old.

At that time, it had reached the end stage of the league, and the victory or defeat of the game could no longer affect the team's ranking. As a result, many old players have chosen a truce. As a young player, Wu Jun, because of the fever to more than 38 degrees, also had the idea of truce. He found Xu Genbao and asked for a break.

To be fair, Wu Jun's request is not excessive. However, because of the truce of many old players, there are not many people who can be used by Xu Genbao. Against this backdrop, the then Dalian coach asked Wu Jun to play in this game. Wu Jun has been injected, telling the team doctor that he can't play the game, which makes Xu Genbao extremely annoyed, publicly reprimanding Wu Jun at the pre-match preparation meeting, and publicly saying that he will not use a player like Wu Jun in the future.

This incident made the 21-year-old Wu Jun completely anger Xu Genbao. This directly led to the loss of the starting seat of the team, which was originally promising. Even if the Dalian team at that time, in the position of left back, there was no better choice than Wu Jun, but the Dalian team still abandoned Wu Jun without hesitation...

It is worth mentioning that the Dalian team has suffered a lot for this, and the next results have been greatly affected. Until the introduction of Andilsen, this can be considered to completely get rid of the negative impact of abandoning Wu Jun.

When things developed to this point, Wu Jun, a local genius in Dalian, could only look for opportunities by changing the doorway. At his level at the time, most of the teams in A and A could play the main force. So, for him, a transfer seems like a good choice.

However, the transfer system in the A-League at that time was a well-known delisting system, full of all kinds of cuts, and it was difficult for players to join their favorite teams. What's more, Wu Jun did not understand the rules of delisting and wrote the word "arbitrary" on the transfer application form. This directly led to the fact that he was originally at ease in the A and A League, but he was selected by the A and B team...

What's worse is that the A and B team that picked Wu Jun was also suspected of playing fake balls. With Wu Jun's upright personality, he naturally did not want to go along with the flow, which directly led to him being hidden by his new owner.

The player's career is not very long, Wu Jun, who was in the rising period at the time, first experienced the abandonment of the Dalian team, and then encountered the snow of the new owner, I don't know how much time was delayed. After he left the quagmire and transferred to Shenyang Jinde, he encountered injuries, which made Wu Jun discouraged, and simply made the decision to retire in 2002, the year he was 25 years old. A generation of new stars, thus falling.

Throughout Wu Jun's career, his football talent can not be described as bad, otherwise he would not be 19 years old and comparable to Sun Jihai. Unfortunately, the stubborn personality ruined the career of this Dalian genius, and the 21-year-old angered Xu Genbao, which directly led to a sharp turn in his career, which led to a scene where he hung up his boots at the age of 25, which made people sigh incomparably.
