This was the moment that pic of their became philis and gets the skirts. Because neither of their careers really saw the sun again in the shadow of this moment. 6 years later on the show left the football stage inside posting a picture of his career highlights he was 29 years old and mom you had to leave the dalton family 2020 its ok more than 3 months to find a new club the 28 year old joined Pusey Eindhoven to rebuild his career the media calls its an escape. From the fish most. Viewed shoeless sounded really exciting it was always this feeling you have to you have to hew have to i thought i had to keep struggling on. We are moved by stories of magical beings. Not to see individual city feeds to parry a palace all on the right side to give us high. Heroes are people we look up to because they solve problems they inspire us. Football stadiums are stage for here right epics some place you can carry their message on the pitch use this beautiful game to actually change the world for better do something do anything. We have incredible power. But im sure they didnt need to last and. Why did a world cup win a say goodbye with these words lets go back to a time when he was just a new comer in the world of football. But he was 18 years old when he scored 20 goals in his 1st 2 seasons and he didnt have a chance in the worlds. Best left minds after 2 years as coach said goodbye with these words. You speak of the internets another classic of a tee shot game show list next clump live of his must also just a stepping stone on his journey to the top to move to chelsea and scored 8 goals in his 1st year at Stamford Bridge and guts in. His career was even more promising than just 17 his started out and dont want us the german bund its fast its a perfect technique he was part of a few clubs dont want super squads who want to german titles by the age of 19 a year later he decided to move on because every club wanted to model you know. Saying im sure london which is a. Modern i was a british village will be enough to scare me about that superstar mario joined by and and the most renowned manager at that time and in 20 foot seen both players were boosted on to the biggest stage there its the whats come so how do you top bags like this. When you leave brought on gazza in the 88th minute of the final he whispered into his. Modern shoulder welsh you are better than mens. He told him what no 22 year old should be told you are better than god. You have like that amazing more and then you become whole and everythings gone sure lisette i could push myself for 3 or 4 weeks but then i fell into the deepest of holes i didnt want to play football anymore i was completely down. Plus once you have been the best the world wont settle for anything less if suddenly they were expected to be superhuman foxworth thought surely in 2015 for 32000000 euros ignoring that he had struggles in his 2nd season at chelsea he was expected to play like a World Champion all because off from one assist surely couldnt deliver suddenly the hero needed help i did anyone notice. Im supposed to need help people think about sports psychology ok this is something that you dont need when there are there were things go wrong and i would strongly disagree with that point of view its hard to deal with success as well as that as it is hard to deal with you know losses or if you shoot. Same with that so its by and the one that can turned out to be a Good Team Player thats not an all conquering one man army at 1st thats a performed as usual. In 27 games to sports 10 times like in the smallest season in dolphin wants. His performance in the 2nd season was still ok but he rarely played the full 90 minutes with every match he turned more into gladiolus coaching substitute so what did he do he really lifts his famous field goal over and over like a. He reenacted the t. V. Commentary. Posted this clip himself on social media and he published a book for kids titles. The hero knew he was quickly running out of chances to pick himself up again at this point a pac sun began to fall. Model that starts himself as a lowly commercial after commercial he posed as a top solitary Fighter Pilot and nobody told him that is not who you are la you look at the go go go so he kept going. And what you have commercial depict in him as a lonely hero he became the only hero. In 2016 things seem to take its turn on the backs of. Champions well youre not supposed to. It seems too good to be true. Surely the choices fall in the minds hold still must to play and thats a return to the prodigal son. Though his new father didnt want top us well coming what sounded more like a 1st aid service for a broken man enjoy a transfer coup. And often an. Extra. Gods message leave there well moments of joy for this whats coming to you. But there were few and far between when was the wrong choice the former champions found themselves on the bench and facing public criticism. Does not solve. Very well nisar. Really. Did they really not care whether just sick and tired. Tired of people judging of others having to defend them good ones if i ns i need. The lesson in values and what if question my most often them of the gun so that one would notice to them your mission and always having cameras pointed at them. In 2017 minute thats it was diagnosed with a red metabolic illness which can cause for teeth in a way to gain both things he was criticized for the elders sounded like a possible reason from obvious failure to fulfill his promise as a world class player its an illness that can be caused by too much pressure. But if the case is tough. Its hard to show that youre well that will its a business where every sort of weakness could be used against you thats kind of the reasons why a psychologist work more and more the fuel sports. Their doctors to alan. In 20. 4 years some other girl and the model come out thats ensured i had to stand by their teammates went to the next one. The heroes were not good. Manny was seen in this commercial while knowing in self pity for having been left out and in that same year his start in the 4 parts of can naturally about how we felt to handle the expectations and screen compass army was. And will surely even had his pep talk to toot on his skin. Fall 7 times stand up. But every time he stood up he stood up a tiny bit small. He starts women might perhaps believes at least 80 percent off and then pick athletes go through post a limping depression a time before and during a tournament its emotionally tough creating huge pressure. It seems unlikely that Football Players would be spared from Something Like that especially after becoming the worlds capirossi. And they suffer in silence on the set talking openly and honestly about things is impossible in this business you always have to play a certain role to survive. So if you can hear us need help what advice but a therapist get well like whatever i work with. Came back after you to excess or very successful at the time i make sure that dont just talk about the success because to me its important that there is some sort of identity of themselves that does not just include their last or their latest success.

W news live from berlin americas newly elected president pushes ahead with his transition joe biden makes plans to fill critical posts but how much cooperation can he expect from the Trump White House will also be hearing from germanys chancellor giving her 1st on camera remarks on the election. Im sorry kelly welcome to the program joe biden has signaled that he wants to get to work immediately forming his administration he is expected to start by naming a 12 member Coronavirus Task force later today but his efforts may be hampered by president Donald Trumps continuing refusal to concede the election. Greeted by chance of losing. The u. S. President ial motorcade waves its way to Trump National golf course for the 2nd day in a row. Donald trump taking a shot at forgetting and alexion loss. He spent the morning in stubborn denial of his defeat refusing to concede to Democrat Joe Biden and giving air to disproven theories of Election Fraud several prominent republicans in congress have made supportive statements saying the elections not over yet. Theres a lot of shenanigans going on here if our President Trump i would take all this to court fight back and from a Republican Point of view mellon balloting is a nightmare for us the post office is now the new Election Center now more than all the republicans have expressed more confidence in the electoral process while saying trumps legacy will endure. He is without question the most powerful voice in our party. He will have an enormous impact on our party going forward. I believe the great majority of people who voted for donald trump want to make sure that his principles and his policies are pursued. With the Trump Administration planning multiple legal challenges over the voting process and concession speech still seems far off. And for more lets bring in our chief Political Correspondent belinda crane who is joining us here in the studio melinda i mean we just saw a little bit in terms of what could be ahead in the next weeks in the next bomb just walk us through what is likely happening on the ground on both sides right now in the u. S. Well i think 1st of all that question about donald trump not yet having conceded the election i think its really important to signal why that is important and the reason is that that peaceful transition from one president to another is the very essence of democracy and if the loser doesnt concede he essentially once again as donald trump has done so often in the past is calling the election itself into question and sending a message to his supporters this thing is still open and that of course is extremely important for whether americans will accept this new president when he moves into office on the 20th of january and therefore thats relevant as long as this doesnt happen this concession theres essentially open Unfinished Business so thats one thing secondly the big question now is will republicans be ready to Work Together with joe biden he has certainly reached out his hand we heard that in the speech on saturday from him will they take that hand it depends very much among other things on a Runoff Election in georgia a critical Runoff Election that will determine the composition of the senate should the republicans win that election then it will be a completely blocked senate very very difficult to get some of the bigger proposals especially in regard to tax policy through but that doesnt mean joe biden wont have other options there not the options of preference executive orders and so on he can also do a lot in the climate area through Foreign Policy but hes going to need all the political experience he has very big. Questions about you know how he will be able to govern with what sort of facility in the country meantime we know that International Leaders have been reacting to his election for example we have are standing by this hour for german chancellor Angela Merkel to speak is this typical that we would see her give a speech at this point not necessarily in the more distant past but exactly on this day 4 years ago she also gave a statement after she had congratulated in writing which shes done here as well so you wonder well why did she need to speak again last time it was quite interesting because what she did is she congratulated donald trump the new president but then she said america has a long history of democracy of values like respect for the rule of law human rights and so when and then she said on that basis we offer President Trump our close cooperation in other words she sent a little bit of conditionality and a warning that were going to be looking for this new administration under trying to uphold those values if we want to Work Together of course the administration often didnt do that and i think we might hear her speak about the importance of returning to those values and of course multilateralism because the trumpet ministration has absolutely re now its multilateralism on climate on the iran treaty on very important arms control treaties and i think there will be much rejoicing the chance is always discreet restraint she probably wont show it but there will be much rejoicing here that even if things are going to be made challenging transatlantic say when it relations the fact is were going to see a return to much more predictability in multilateralism talks with us a little bit about what has been happening in the past 4 years because the german chancellor trump they havent exactly have the best for they should chip we have in the snow in fact that book from john bolton from the former Security National 6. Already advisor for donald trump who then spilled all the beans in his tell all book he said that trump looked down on the chancellor i dont want to do too much of that psychologizing speculation but many people say trump has a problem with strong women it got off to a difficult start right with the very 1st visit that the chancellor made in washington where trump greatly surprised her as i said shes usually restrained but you could see it in her expression when he said that he and she had something in common because president obama had eavesdropped on both of their phones and then there was that Famous Oval Office meeting where she suggested they have a handshake and he didnt respond and he didnt shake hands and that was pretty corona it was considered a diplomatic occasion to shake hands he didnt do it then she tried to go there with a lot of c. E. O. s from important German Companies to say trade investment they are a win win for both sides that message wasnt really heard a lot of bashing of germany in terms of trade relations and then of course pilgrimages by the chancellor and french president macron to try to save the iran agreement a much pressure from both of them as well to try to see if the climate paris climate treaty when the u. S. It was going to renounce it none of those worked and then we also saw the u. S. Withdrawal from crucial arms control agreements that very much affect your money and all that pressure in regard to nato and defense spending again and again in fact going so far as President Trump after one nato summit saying that he viewed the European Union as rivals and opponents because of this whole issue of defense spending so so much friction and enormous unpredictability and i think that will be a subject that is really creating a lot of relief here in of europe of course. Its not just europe that has been watching this election it is also the world which is watching in anticipation with what this president elect might do with this next term so lets get a closer look now at what a biden presidency could mean for the rest of the worlds. The worlds policeman that was the role the u. S. Took on at the end of the 20th century under bill clinton nato bombed serbia to stop its aggression in kosovo under george w. Bush wars in afghanistan and iraq u. S. Troops are still stationed in both countries even barack obama who promised an end to stupid wars authorized the bombing of libya. That policeman role largely ended in 2016 when donald trump announced an america 1st agenda the u. S. Would no longer try to solve the worlds problems. He backed out of major treaties and criticised alliances like nato rattling nerves in europe and beyond. And he embraced authoritarian leaders from Vladimir Putin in russia to kim jong un in north korea. Joe biden has promised to restore what he calls americas place at the head of the table grave. Ill be a president will stand with our allies and friends and make it clear to our adversaries the days of cozying up to dictators is over oh its always stand for our values of human rights and dignity and worker common purpose for more secure peaceful and prosperous world. In the middle east that means rejoining the 2015 Iran Nuclear Deal that trump abandoned biden says that would also help rein in irans military provocations and reduce the risk of a new war in the region. Many experts consider china the biggest Foreign Policy challenge for the coming years biden has harshly criticized the chinese human rights record hes expected to try to rally allies to push back against chinese trade policies and its expanding influence around the world. On the environment biden says that on day one of his administration the u. S. Will rejoin the Paris Climate Accord limiting Carbon Emissions which trump quit and he wants to call a new Climate Summit to convince other major polluters to go beyond the commitments theyve already made and hes commits the us to do so as well. In many ways a biden presidency would be a return to a more traditional american role but hell have to work hard to restore trust from our allies who feel scarred from the last 4 years. And. And lets drill down deeper into some of those issues we are joined by our chief Political Correspondent melinda crane and we also have to mention that were standing by this hour the german chancellor Angela Merkel is also expected to speak at any moment in the meantime though belinda you know were going to get to some of those issues that we just saw in the piece there but just give us the broader picture here because you know biden ran on a platform build back better a lot of his agenda was very much focused on dealing with some of the immediate issues in the United States right now coronavirus pandemic for example bringing the country back together an incredibly polarized nation where does Foreign Policy fit into all of this because it wasnt such a big focus on the campaign trail well we heard in the piece about china so lets start there because that is very important and nobody should expect i think that joe biden now as of 20 january will embrace china and suddenly everything will be cozy the fact is he. He also sees china as a strategic rival and i think we will see him press harder on issues like human rights i think he will also be putting some tough questions to allies like germany germany has declared its own reset on china policy but i think questions may be asked in washington about how meaningful that reset really is and are the germans possibly willing to risk their good trade relations with china in order to push harder on issues like human rights i think the Foreign Office here is quite aware of that they know that there will be some tough pressure on china at the same time i think they clearly realize joe biden and his administration will be looking for in Multi Lateral approach awesome ves of the china because you can achieve a great deal more with that kind of an approach. Climate is an area where even if there is some resistance in a very polarized Senate Joe Biden will be able to do some things also via Foreign Policy one of his 1st acts will be to rejoin the paris treaty for example and he simply did that he can by executive order thats how donald trump announced that he was leaving it so the fact is that climate matters in the u. S. Have long been very difficult to get through the senate and many of the kioto protocol as well was designed to get around that difficulty in the u. S. Its not an ideal state of affairs youd much rather do things legislatively but if it cant be done there are methods where you can start a ball rolling Via Executive action and the same goes for cooperation on the International Level on climate related issues and we will certainly see that we also depending where the Republican Party goes even in a divided congress we might see some willingness to make. Some Big Investments in Green Infrastructure and i think the Republican Party is really going to be doing a lot of soul searching about where they want to go but it could be you could get some buy in on that you probably wont get buy in on some of the things that joe biden wanted to do to essentially reduce economic inequality in the us meaning tax increases on the wealthy raising corporate taxes could be a tough sell with a divided senate probably will be a tough sell i know that the stock markets like that i think personally that its difficult for the u. S. People are going to be awaiting action also on systemic racism and part of that action that joe biden wanted to take was economic to better the situation of black americans who for example have long been discriminated against in the Housing Market talk with us a little bit about the challenges that hes facing when it comes to governing because i mean you mentioned you know if the senate doesnt go republican we dont know that by the way at this hour because there are still some runoff races that still have yet to take place but you know hes not only facing the challenge of of bringing the republicans on board with his agenda when it comes to governing but also facing the challenge with a very Progressive Left within his own party this was something that donald trump used in order to mobilize voters he made them afraid of a socalled socialist policies in the United States talk with us about how he might be able to strike some sort of middle ground will that be possible or are we set to see gridlock now for the next 4 years. Cortez who of course is the leading figure in that left wing in the Democratic Party and a very powerful one at her young age she made it very clear over the weekend that she is going to be looking for real action precisely on these issues like systemic racism. Socio economic. The and that will action does mean tax policy now she didnt talk so much about the levers that she thinks would actually be feasible to use in a divided congress but you can be sure that that movement is not going to go away and i think to biden and harriss credit must be said they are both moderate politicians who nonetheless have seen the importance of a Progressive Agenda at this time both of them are deeply aware that movements like black lives matter and the recognition of inequality and the way that it is eating away at the middle class are crucial areas where they must be seen to act and joe biden is a very experienced politician he had 40 years of experience in the senate he had 40 years of work in malayalam just going to interrupt you here mention to our viewers on that were standing by for german chancellor Angela Merkel to speak at this hour she stepped up to the podium much less and. Went home ladies and gentlemen. This is a woman 95 and 2020. Really as germans like every night of november in and by this i think i need to begin because theres such a lot of feedback in the room should i start again. Its ok if. I said ok now. Ok man adama town ladies and gentlemen is the day on the 9th of november 20 twentieths we didnt know in germany like every night of november think of the worst and the best things that happened to our history we think of the atrocities of 1938 and the many programs committed against jewish people in our country the synagogues set on fire jewish property burnt and destroyed. We remember. The terrible crime of the show committed by germany with great shame and we think of the 9th of november nights human they t 9 been enjoying one of the people here right in the new year from right near here the fall of the berlin wall 1st opened and then fell. And just a few weeks ago on the 3rd of october we celebrated the 30th anniversary of german unity without. The faces particularly of the americans it wouldnt have been possible and i will always be grateful theyre grateful for their confidence in us we germans experience it directly just how important the role of the United States of america is for liberty and democracy in the world. We experience directly firsthand just how important german American Friendship how important Transatlantic Relations are for germany for europe and for the world because of it for folks the entire world watches the u. S. President ial elections every 4 years with particular attention now and once again American Voters have chosen their president elect us i want to congratulate joe biden as the 42nd president elects. He has a great deal of experience in Foreign Policy hes very familiar with germany and europe and i remember very good meetings and talks that we have had has i also want to congratulate come along harris the Vice President elect as the 1st woman in this recession and as the daughter of 2 immigrants to america for many she is an inspiration an example of what is possible in america. And i look forward to meeting her by and the friendship of our 2 countries is one that has stood the test of time for many decades many people here and there live with this german American Friendship it is a treasure that we must preserve that we must cherish and we must pass on to a new generation those of europeans and americans of germans and americans we are allies in nato we share common values from the dignity of the individual from the rule of law and democracy and we have common interests as well i mean the United States of america germany as part of the European Union must stand together to tackle to make sure challenges facing us in this day and age we must stand side by side to cope with the test that is the pandemic we must fight against global warming. We must fight against terrorism stop and stand side by side for an open Global Economy and for free trade with this is the foundation of our course parity on both sides of the atlantic we germans and europeans know that this partnership in the 21st centurys one that requires us to take on more responsibility of america may remain our most important ally but the expectation quite rightly on us. Is that we make. Efforts to ensure for our own security and to assist. Our convictions in the world and we as europeans have long set off down this road and it has been a time of conflict in which the us voters. Gave such a great deal of responsibility to joe biden and come out how i said i wish them every success god bless and thank you. You have been watching german chancellor Angela Merkel speaking. In berlin today congratulating joe biden on his win for the u. S. Presidency and also Vice President komla harris elected in these historic election d. W. Is melinda crane our chief Political Correspondent is joining us here in the studio for reaction of big stress here on the importance of the United States globally when it comes to democracy when it comes to freedom when it comes to rule of law. Really stressing also the importance of of the relationship with germany and the United States it sounds like shes expecting a great reset in relations indeed as i said before the chancellor tends to be very measured and restrained but that was a downright emotional speech in part where she talked about the treasure of Transatlantic Relations and how very important that had been and i dont know if its just me but i think its quite interesting that she began with this historic day and the examples of the tyranny that germany had experienced both through the nazi epoch and then during the cold war and that she linked those examples of tyranny then to the healing role that america had played also in promoting a democratic socialization here in germany and i think it probably wont have escaped many viewers notice that during those days when the outcome of the u. S. Election was unsure we heard german politicians reminding americans about the importance of respect for the voting process the importance of respect and trust in democratic democratic rules and proceedings and i think between the lines i saw some of that here as well with the chancellor essentially perhaps reminding us that. The u. S. Is democratic system itself was at stake in this election certainly a very resoundingly affirmation of what she hopes will be possible with this new administration and also a very resolving affirmation of coming to her as absolutely we have to talk about that because of course she is the 1st woman she is the 1st woman of color elected to the vice presidency in the United States no matter what your politics are that is a historic moment and the chancellor saying shes looking forward to meeting her isnt she yeah that was also very nice and very personal again from a leader who is not always all that personal. You know were seeing this picture right behind us come a harris in her white suit that white suit is the color worn by the suffragettes those who fought for womens rights 100 years ago and the chancellor basically talking about the significance of a woman person of color taking this important Important Office for the 1st time and coming to harris herself in her speech on saturday talked about the fact that her mother had told her you should be the 1st woman to do things but not the last and coming out saying many little girls are watching this and now know what is possible for them as well certainly that is what the chancellor has been as a woman leader in this country it will model for many many women and i think shes looking at as as a comrade absolutely absolutely shes also looking toward joe biden we have to say and she she mentioned his experience she mentioned the fact that hes a friend of europe she mentioned the fact that they have had productive great meetings in the past what could should we be looking at here when it comes to the relationship that could be had between these 2 well i certainly think that there will be a big push on climate climate is a subject that is of great importance to the chancellor she essentially. Lee the term that joe biden likes to use build back better those are words that she herself used in the pandemic as the 1st rescue packages were rolling out that she said you know we have to do this right and we have to send the right signals to the economy so i think there will be definitely some some good room for collaboration there then trade issues she talked about the importance of trade. There are going to be some challenges there joe biden is not a. Free trader who is going to return us to the old unfettered globalization he would like to see measures put in place in the u. S. To bring supply chains home to at least some degree we may see border adjustment taxes put into place or something resembling that there could be some challenges there with germany but i think what we can be assured of and the chancellor basically was stressing this there will be dialogue there will be attempts to find compromises there will be work within multilateral institutions whether its the w. H. O. For Health Whether its the w t o for trade nato we will no longer see the u. S. Turning its back on multilateralism and that is basically what we saw over the past 4 years again german chancellor Angela Merkel speaking just a short while ago acknowledging the u. S. Election the importance of that relationship between the u. S. And germany congratulating joe biden and comma laris melinda crane our chief Political Correspondent here in the studio breaking it all down for us were going to take a short break now who will be back again at the top of the hour here on d w news but in the meantime we want to tell you that World Leaders have been sending messages of congratulations to biden and his running mate kamel harris but 2 notable exceptions are russia and china which have yet to hell the incoming president. Bidens triumph is being celebre. Aged well beyond the borders of the u. S. World leaders from every continent have congratulated the new president elect. The civil war new on the years stands ready to intensify cooperation with the new administration and the new congress theres a lot to do if you go we can strengthen our ties from our foundation of friendship and partnership. Britain germany france and other European Countries were the 1st along with canada to set neck and regulations most expressed parts of renewed unity and cooperation following 4 years of tense diplomacy. Very much to working with President Biden and his team on a lot of crucial stuff for us in that in the weeks and months ahead. Climate change trade International Security many many many many other issues on the streets there appears to have been a collective sigh of relief from europe. I am relieved because these last days of insecurity that were weighing on my heart have been lifted will not merit the last few years is over. For us to see what i meant that he said that will certainly be a new political direction especially when it comes to the environment. The french and i see a Brighter Future than before. To asia. But in seems open to accepting peoples different viewpoints and wants to move forward in a united manner thats positive. Africa. I am absolutely thrilled that bidens one and a little bit scared about what i do next
