Chapter 1: Activates system functions

Sutton United: 3

Crystal Palace U-21: 0

At Gander Green Lane, more than a thousand Sutton United loyal supporters were attending to provide their support.

"Focus! Focus!!, defenders shouldn't be complacent!!"

Although the game entered the 90th minute, Sutton United led by 3 goals, and Alan Foster still did not feel comfortable.

4 minutes of extra time provided by the referee can reverse the outcome of the match.

He attempted to give calls to his men to stay concentrated and cautious.

Alan did not want to let down his team's fans, particularly after the defeat at the hands of Oldham Athletic in the last three days at Gander Green Lane.

The Us is unable to defend the advantage of 1 goal as a result of David's goal.

As a result of the neglect of players and coaches who were already comfortable, the Sutton United team was punished.

The Latics made an epic comeback by scoring 2 goals in the last minute.

Although this ongoing match is the only Papa John Cup in the group stage, if they win tonight, it will be their first win of the season.

So their spirits are boiling.

For Alan, this match is very important.

This match is the 6th match after taking over this body.

Alan doesn't have a single memory of his predecessor, so he's not good at managing the team.

Fortunately, when Alan regained consciousness he was already at home.

To find out about his predecessor, he rummaged through the house, especially the room next to the bedroom, which was filled with posters of football players such as Lionel Messi, Luis Suarez, and Cristiano Ronaldo, which convinced Alan that the world he was in was still the same.

There are several diaries about his predecessor also found in the room.

Coincidentally, the predecessor has the same name.

This may be why the predecessor's body was chosen.

July 10, 2021?

Alan also found out he transmigrated in the same year.

So the knowledge he has is not very useful.

He also thought of returning to his home country.

But.

Alan Foster is now different from the one before.

He has no family.

He is alone.

Now he has to proceed with living like Alan Foster, his predecessor.

With this second chance, Alan needs to have great determination and a goal.

He doesn't want to live a normal life.

'Be rich!'

The first thing he had to do was resign from his position as a football manager.

Although Alan had heard that the manager's wage was quite high, up to tens of millions a year.

But that's solely for the elite and world-class managers.

The annual salary earned by his predecessor was only 35 thousand, including bonuses.

Below the average annual salary in this country.

Furthermore, without the right ability, he is unqualified to be a good manager and is likely to be fired.

Alan is also anxious because at his workplace there are many contacts from his predecessor.

He didn't want them to be suspicious of him, it was exhausting to pretend to be someone else.

With all the savings belonging to his predecessor, Alan wants to use it as business capital.

In his past life, Alan was a successful businessman. He had over ten years of experience. So there is no difficulty for him to succeed.

But his intent should be forgotten when he knows that he has a system that can assist him to become a football manager.

But for system functions to be activated, he needs to complete a task given by the system.

*The managed team has to win one match.* (note: friendlies do not count)

Until today, he had to rely on Jason Goodliffe, who was the assistant manager.

Almost all of the tactics used by Alan are based on the capacities that Jason has.

Jason thinks that Alan wants to give him an opportunity and instruct him.

Jason didn't feel weird about Alen's acts.

He had heard rumors about a club from League One wanting to use Alan's services.

What Alan did was one of the preparatory steps before leaving the club.

Jason was very grateful for trusting him.

Furthermore, after moving up to promotion last season, the club simply hopes not to be relegation the season.

So he doesn't have to be scared to buy types of players according to his desires after getting advice from Alan.

*Phwwwwwwht*

"We finally won!" Jason said happily as he jogged towards Alan and then hugged Alan.

Although practically all of the opposing players under the age of 21 cannot deny Jason's superiority by using low-block defensive play and using the benefit of physical strength so well that it is tough for opposing players to penetrate the penalty box.

In addition, Sutton's players will be ready to counter-attack and are capable of scoring goals.

"Yes," Alan returned the hug.

Jason is the most vital person in this victory.

Alan and Jason walked up to the opposing team's coach to handshake.

....

*Ding!*

As Alan left the stadium, suddenly a familiar sound was heard.

"Finally"

*System function has been activated!*

[Notice]

[Manager]

[club]

*Note: the menu will open and close based on your desires*

A blue panel the size of a computer monitor appeared in front of him.

Alan looked around as if he was the only one who could see this panel.

'Close'

The blue panel began to disappear from his vision.

After thinking for a while, he chose to close the system first until he got home.

He was able to wait more than 50 days.

It's not a problem to wait another 15 minutes.
