[分享] 魯尼熱愛10號球衣

Roo loves no.10 shirt
魯尼熱愛10號
Wayne Rooney this season took up the iconic no.10 at Old Trafford, and as he reveals part two of this interview, he's hoping to follow in the footsteps of some of the footballing greats to have donned the shirt...
韋恩.魯尼本賽季得到了10號球衣，正如在訪問中披露的，他希望身穿這件球衣追隨那些足壇巨星的腳步……
Why did you change your number this season – were you offered the No.10 shirt?
本賽季為什麽改變球衣號碼——是球隊的決定嗎？
When Ruud [van Nistelrooy] left and no-one took it the following season I asked the manager and David Gill if I could have the shirt. I had to wait a year until the new kit came out [at the start of this season], but as soon as that happened I was given the shirt, which was great. Ten has always been my favourite number.
當範尼離開之後，接下來的賽季沒人接手這件球衣。所以我就詢問了經理和吉爾是否可以把這件球衣給我。我不得不等到新款球衣出來的時候【本賽季開始】。新款球衣一面世我就得到了10號，這真是偉大。10號一直是我最喜歡的號碼。
Did you know much about the history behind the shirt at United – Denis Law, Mark Hughes and Ruud van Nistelrooy, of course, are all former holders…
你知道曼聯歷史上有多少偉大的10號嗎？丹尼斯.勞、馬克.修斯和範尼，當然，那都是這件球衣的前主人。
They were all great players who scored so many goals for the club so I knew what a big number it was for me to take. But that great history makes wearing the shirt feel even better and also makes it more of a challenge to succeed. I always keep my first shirt of every new season so I’ve got the first no.10 one I wore against Chelsea [in the Community Shield] up at home.
他們都是偉大的球員，他們都進了很多球，所以能得到這樣一個偉大的號碼很榮幸。但是偉大的歷史只會讓這件球衣更加閃耀，也會讓穿上它的人更有進取心。我一直保留著我每個賽季的第一件球衣。所以我把和切爾西比賽時穿的球衣掛在家裏。
It’s also an iconic shirt throughout world football – Puskas, Pele, Platini, Maradona, Baggio, Zidane and now Ronaldinho have all worn it – was that in your mind too?
在整個足球世界中10號也是偉大的號碼——普斯卡什、普拉蒂尼、馬拉多納、巴喬、齊達內和現在的羅納爾迪尼奧都穿10號。你也想過這些嗎？
Yeah, it’s definitely been an important number down the years. It’s probably more of a traditional number in South America for the best players to wear no.10. When you look at the players that have worn it, it feels great to have the number. Hopefully when I’ve finished people will look back and say the same thing about me.
是的，多年來這一直是個特別的號碼。可能對於南美洲來說這是個傳統的號碼，最好的球員都穿10號。看看穿這個號碼的球員就能感到這是個偉大的號碼。希望我不會辜負這個號碼。
Have you got a favourite no.10 that you used to watch as a youngster?
你小時候最喜歡的10號是誰？
Not really. Duncan Ferguson was a big hero of mine but he was no.9 when I was a kid. He did switch to no.10 when I broke into the team at Everton though. Michael Owen is probably the no.10 I remember watching the most. Even though he played for Liverpool, I still always enjoyed watching him.
沒什麽吧。鄧肯.弗格森是個大英雄，但是那時候他是9號。不過後來等我擠進埃弗頓一線隊之後改到了10號。邁克爾.歐文可能是我看過最多的10號。即便他為利物浦踢球，我還是很喜歡看他的比賽。
Pele and Maradona were both great no.10s, what have you seen of them in action?
貝利和馬拉多納都是偉大的10號，你怎麽看他們？
I’ve watched a lot of videos of Pele and you can see what a brilliant footballer he was. He had two great feet, was strong in the air and was also a very good athlete. He’s rightly up there as one of the best players of all time. But, in my eyes, Maradona is definitely the best player there has ever been. He had pace, great skill and an unbelievable desire to win.
我看過不少貝利的錄像，你能發現他是個多麽厲害的球員。他左右腳都很好，空中能力也夠強，跑的也快。他可以說是歷史上最好的球員之一。但是在我眼中，馬拉多納才是最好的。他有速度、優秀的技術和難以置信的求勝心。
Maradona has said that he believes you have a strong claim to be the best footballer in the world – do compliments like that inspire you as a player?
馬拉多納說過他相信你能成為世界最好的球員，他很欣賞你的足球？
It’s good to hear nice comments from anyone, but it’s amazing when it comes from someone like Maradona. It gives you great confidence to go out there and try and be as good as them.
能得到表揚總是好的。但是能得到馬拉多納的表揚就實在是個驚喜。這能給你信心更進一步。
Denis Law is one of the most famous no.10s at United. It must have been nice to be presented with your new shirt by him?
丹尼斯.勞是曼聯最著名的10號。能繼承他的衣缽很好吧？
It was fantastic. He was an unbelievable player, he scored so many goals for the club and for him to hand the shirt over to me was a real honour. He was a player who could score any kind of goal. He wasn’t the tallest but he was very good in the air. He was also a very brave player and a real goal poacher inside the box.
很好。他是個難以置信的球員，打進了太多進球。能繼承這件球衣是個真正的榮譽。他是個天生的射手。身高不是最高，但卻是空霸。也是個非常勇敢的球員，禁區內嗅覺靈敏。
He said recently that he believes you, Ronaldo and Tevez can form a new holy trinity at United…
最近他說相信你、羅納爾多和特維斯可以組成新的鐵三角……
Really? I hadn’t heard that! If we can get anywhere near that then it would be amazing. It’s great to hear things like that, but the likes of myself, Ronaldo and Carlos will tend to get more of the praise as we score the goals. The three of us know the importance of the other lads in the side and the part they play in helping the team be successful, so it’s not just about the players who score the goals.
真的？這我可不知道！如果我們能在任何方面接近的話就太好了。很高興聽到這個，但是作為我、羅納爾多和特維斯將隨著進球的增多得到更多贊揚。我們3個知道球隊中其他人的重要性。他們也幫助球隊成功，所以這不僅是進球的球員。
Your first goal in the no.10 shirt came against Roma in October – what do you remember about the goal?
你穿10號的第一個進球是10月份在羅馬身上取得的——你還記得嗎？
It was similar to the second one I scored against AC Milan last season. I hit it early, made good contact and thankfully it went into the far corner. It was a relief to get that first goal because I’d missed the first few games of the season with my broken foot. It was even more pleasing that it came in such an important game.
就像去年在AC身上取得的第2個進球。我很早就起腳了，觸球感覺很好。感謝上帝球奔遠角去了。我賽季初因為受傷錯過了一些比賽，能在這麽重要的比賽中進球也算個小小的補償吧。
How do you feel you’re developing as a striker – would you liken yourself to any of the aforementioned front men?
你覺得自己正在變成一個射手嗎？你希望成為前面說到的那些偉大的球員嗎？
Not really. I think it’s difficult for you to compare yourself to someone else, but I certainly hope I can become as good as them. I’ve definitely changed the way I play this season in the fact that I’ve played further up front rather than in behind a main striker; that’s something Carlos has done. I’d probably say I’ve enjoyed that role more as you seem to get more chances and hopefully that means I’ll end up with more goals.
也不是。我覺得和其他人比較很難。但是我確實希望能像他們一樣好。本賽季我也確實改變了自己的比賽風格，事實上我更加靠前而不是在後面當影子殺手。那是特維斯做的事情。我可能會說自己更希望呆在前面，因為會有更多機會，希望這意味著我本賽季能進更多球。
