足球是项简单的运动

你只需要抢球 传球 进球

奥脱福 这座球场矗立于
Old Trafford. This pitch sits in the middle of the
这个国家最大的工业城市的中心
largest industrial estate in the country.
那边 那里是纺织厂工人的看台
Over there, that’s where the cotton boys stand.
还有木工 码头工人 碾磨工的地盘
There’s the joiners, the dockers, the millers.
他们来这前没什么共同点
Nothing in common until they’re here.
我们就是他们的骄傲 在周末
We are their pride…at the end of the week.
我们是他们生活的全部
We set the world to rights for them.
至少直到周日早晨
At least till Sunday morning.
我们欠他们太多 你想在他们面前踢球
And we owe them the best. Now, you want to play in front of them,
我和巴斯比先生需要知道
me and Mr Busby need to know
你能在每周六下午三点
you’ll give us the best in front of

these 80,000, 3pm on a Saturday.
但是现在 这座球场 这支球队
But right now, this ground,
不欠你博比·查尔顿任何东西
this club, owes Mr Bobby Charlton exactly nothing.
你准备抱怨还是工作
Are you going to bleat or work?
这就是成功与失败的区别
That separates those who make it from those who don’t.
我…我要工作
I…I’m going to work.
我们在做伟大的事 博比
We’re doing great things, Bobby.
你会成功的 我保证
It’s all here for you, I promise.
-你有几只脚 -两只
-How many feet have you got? -Two.
你为什么不两只都用
Why aren’t you using both?
我一直更擅长用右脚
I’ve always preferred me right.
-训练过左脚吗 用过左脚吗 没有吗 -没有
-Ever practise with your left? Play with your left? No? -No.
那你怎么知道你更擅长右脚
So how do you know you prefer your right?
看到那堵墙了吗 用左脚
See that wall? Left foot,
然后右脚 左脚 右脚 尽全力踢对着墙射
then right, then left, then right. As much power as you can muster.
每天至少一小时
Shoot at that wall for an hour every day, at least.
-并且尽量确保周围没人 -为什么
-And try and make sure no-one else is around. -Why’s that?
我们不想让大家都知道你的实力
We don’t want everyone knowing how good you are.

Not yet. Go on.
最少用心练一小时 好吗
An hour, mind, at least. All right?
如果你在射程范围内有一个绝佳机会
No, if you’re in range of the goal and you fancy your chances…
别抬头看 踢球的上部射大力地滚球
never look up. Just hit it low and hard, through the top of the ball.
不 要是不看 我肯定错失机会
Oh, no, if I don’t look, I’ll definitely miss.
要是你不知道球往哪滚 对方门将也不知道
If you don’t know where it’s going, neither does their keeper.
大家会原谅球员射门不进
Crowd forgives a player who shoots and misses.
但他们不会原谅球员有机会不射门
They never forgive a player who had a chance and doesn’t.
你想过要当主帅吗
Did you never want to be a manager?
没有 我不擅长毕恭毕敬
No…No, I’m not so good at tugging my forelock,
跟董事会打交道
dealing with the board.
算了吧 巴斯比先生 他才是外交官
No…Mr Busby, he’s the diplomat.
我是个教练 在草场上我能看到阴霾中的曙光
I’m a coach. You put me on the grass, I can see the future on a foggy day.
看着球员们闪耀 就是对我的回报
That’s my reward. Seeing that spark, watching it flame.
你怀念踢球吗
Do you not miss playing?

你说的倒轻松 你17岁已经上阵英格兰杯赛了
That’s easy for you to say, with your England cap at 17.
人人都爱你 伟大的邓肯·爱德华兹
Everybody loves you, mighty Duncan Edwards.
我也曾像你一样 时刻努力训练
I went through the same as you, and I grafted every hour of every day.
我不是得到一个一线位置 而是抢到的
I didn’t get handed a place in the team. I stole one.
努力挤进球队 还要努力保住位置
It’s a struggle to get in the team. It’s a struggle to stay in.
但如果你没有为其
But if you don’t have the guts to fight for
奋斗15年的决心
that for the next 15 years of your life,
你最好赶紧打包回家吧
you’d best get back on the train home.
那就太愚蠢了 因为其实你♥他♥妈♥的很棒
Which would be stupid, cos you’re bloody good, actually.
