The Hoffenheim national soccer player David Raum had the slogan “Living the dream” tattooed on his chest during the winter break. In the first game after the winter break he scored a goal, which made it possible for him to present this lettering when cheering. He lived “the dream of every little football boy in Germany, and that’s why the saying fits very well,” said Raum after the 3-1 win against Augsburg.
“Living the dream” is subtle and intellectual and refutes the cliché that football professionals are spoiled young millionaires. Rather, David Raum’s touching message shows how committed the professionals to the literary genre of poetry albums are, above all to the classic “Three angels may accompany you / in your whole world / and the three angels that I mean / are: love, happiness and more money. “
Incidentally, good trainers have long known how to use the magic of the calendar for themselves. “Champions go their way to the end,” said Hansi Flick to his Bayern players before they defeated Paris Saint-Germain in the Champions League final. Shortly before, he had already touched their hearts with the sentence that one does not have success, success is “only rented. And the rent is due every day”.
As we have now learned, David Raum has commissioned further tattoos for the few remaining areas of skin, allegedly “We only think from game to game” and “The table is only a snapshot”. According to SZ research, Munich tattoo studios have also received new orders, including “The gate comes to whoever wants it most” (Lewandowski), “Every rainbow is a smile from heaven” (Goretzka), “Me I get vaccinated because my teammates are important to me “(Kimmich),” Failure is not the opposite of success, it is part of it “(Nübel) and” Talking is silver, talking more is gold “(Müller).
You can also hear that the Dortmund and possible new Munich Haaland is planning the wisdom “Don’t enclose your life, live your exit clause”. This is by no means objectionable, because Haaland knows that every new day is the first day of the rest of his life.
