Harvest Season
"Young man, your performance is great. I think it's time to start our new round of negotiations." As soon as Richard walked off the stage, a middle-aged man in a suit came over.
Richard felt reassured. It seemed that his performance today really made their hearts flutter! This is a big surprise for Richard. The reason why he came to the youth team of the Premier League team for trial training is because he can get more opportunities here. Although he may get opportunities to play in the English Championship or English Second Division, he will not be able to play in the Premier League. In the youth team of a Premier League team, his starting point will become even higher! Richard's performance in this game was far from amazing. Although he assisted his teammates to score the only goal of the game, and although his teammates began to cooperate with him afterwards, Richard's current strength is limited after all. If it weren't for the opponent's attack on Richard, The weather is not familiar enough, so I believe that today's scouting training session is likely to be different.
"Young man, I think everyone has seen your performance. Well, our coaching staff is quite satisfied with your performance." Coming to the office of the director of Tottenham's youth training camp, Richard sat quietly on a chair and listened to Tottenham's youth training camp. Said the supervisor. "But you also know that one trial cannot represent your full strength. It is our responsibility to sign players with potential for the team, and we must provide fresh blood for the team."
Richard suddenly paused in his heart. Hearing what the supervisor meant, wasn't he prepared to sign me?
Seeing that Richard seemed to want to speak, the director of the youth team smiled and waved to Richard and said, "That's it, young man. We have a preliminary understanding of your strength. Let's put it this way, your strength is pretty good. I I think if you can continue to maintain such strength, of course you still have to improve some deficiencies, I think the team will be very willing to sign you."
Richard let out a long sigh of relief. How could this evil manager with such evil taste learn how to scare people with surprise?
"But you also know that we are not a wealthy team and we don't have much money to invest in the youth team. So I'm sorry, Richard, the team wants to sign you very much, but we can't offer you a full-time contract. If If you are willing to stay, I think we will give you an apprenticeship contract, but you know, apart from providing you with training and accommodation, it is really difficult for us to provide you with an attractive salary." The middle-aged manager regretted He shrugged and said helplessly.
Richard was completely relieved now. As long as he could stay, it would be fine. As for salary, Richard only had an apprenticeship contract at Chelsea and had no salary at all. Besides, if Tottenham Hotspur wanted to use a long-term contract, Richard may not be happy! Richard is not the youth team player who had no hope before. Now with the incredible cheating device 'Perfect Midfield System', Richard believes that he can improve his strength quickly. Once his strength is obtained, Improvement, long-term contract is not conducive to Richard's future and money!
"I think I am happy to stay at Tottenham Hotspur. Thank you sir, this will be a signing that you can be proud of." Richard stretched out his right hand and shook hands with the middle-aged manager with a smile. "I think I can come to the team for training the day after tomorrow. Of course I need to move my luggage here in the past two days."
"Very good, the team will arrange your accommodation, and you can keep in touch with me at any time." The middle-aged manager took out a contract from the drawer with a cheerful expression. Of course he would be happy, as he would get a contract without spending a penny from the club. A young player with good strength, he has reason to be happy.
Seeing Richard sign the contract without hesitation, the middle-aged manager smiled even more relieved, but he would soon find out that he had made a huge mistake. This signing is both his most proud signing and the most unsuccessful signing in his life, because many fans and media will comment on this signing many years later. They all accused the director of not using a long-term contract. Leaving Richard, of course, what is more tragic is Arsenal's coaching directors, because they missed out on a new generation of football champions, and because of their carelessness, their rivals in the same city got Richard!
"Hey, Richard, remember you are the midfielder, your current position is the attacking midfielder, you need to organize the team's offense!" The youth team coach standing on the sidelines wearing sportswear shouted loudly towards the court.
"Hey, Richard, raise your head! You can't just dribble with your head down, you need to observe the movement of your teammates on the field! You need to pay attention to the rhythm on the field, and you need to send threatening passes to your teammates!" The youth team on the sidelines almost jumped and shouted towards the court.
"Rich, watch your feet! Pay attention to protect the ball, don't let your opponent easily break the ball at your feet!" the youth team coach shouted loudly with a straight face.
It has been more than a month since Richard arrived at Tottenham Hotspur, and he has gradually integrated into the current team. After he passed the trial training, he returned home and told his parents the news; after simply packing his luggage, Richard came to North London, and Richard started training with the new team.
Although there was a lot of discomfort in the new team at the beginning, after the initial difficulties, Richard gradually began to adapt to the new team; even though Richard seemed to be the player who was scolded the most by the coach, he believed in the team It can be seen from top to bottom that the coaching staff attaches great importance to Richard.
"Richard, this is your performance on the court during this period. When you go back, think about your shortcomings; your running positions need to be improved. Look at your useless runs on the court; of course you Your passing must also be improved to see how many effective threatening passes you can pass; of course you also make a lot of mistakes. The team does not need you to make much contribution on the defensive end now, but on the offensive end you need to help the ball. The team opened up the situation, but you, you can't even do the simplest dribbling, I wonder if we should terminate your contract!" The white-haired old coach handed Richard a CD with a straight face. , said in a stern voice.
"Mark, smile. You know you can't scare me like this. I have a very good psychological quality." Richard took the CD from the coach's hand with a smile. He knew his recent progress, and he also understood the coach. The team's fancy for him, coupled with his understanding of coach Mark's character, maybe Mark is very strict during training, but off the court, he is definitely a kind old man.
"Young man, the new season is about to start. You need to seize the time to improve. If you can guarantee that you will continue to make such progress in the next month, I think we will definitely be willing to recommend you to the first team." Mark said fiercely He glared at Richard and said angrily.
"Oh, old guy, I think I have fallen in love with you! Don't worry, I will continue to improve in the next month, and I will make you think that I am worthy of your recommendation!" Richard hugged Old York excitedly , this is the best news he has heard since coming to North London!
Richard sat in front of the TV seriously. The CD that Old York gave him recorded his performance on the court during this period. It can be seen that Old York and the others were also very attentive. They recorded in detail what Richard had committed on the court. Mistakes; for example, in the round just now, Richard was just dribbling the ball with his head down, without noticing that his teammates had moved into a better position than him; another example is the offense in this round, Richard's pass There was obviously some mistime, because the opponent saw Richard's passing route and intercepted it in time…
In this month, Richard finally truly experienced the power of the 'Perfect Midfield System'. In the 'Perfect Midfield System', Richard can receive two system trainings every week. Both trainings are simulated actual combat. Of course, Richard's opponents are all virtual players of similar strength to him; Richard had eight training sessions this month. In the initial training, Richard's performance was average. After the first four games, Richard only got 2,000 skill points. However, Richard performed well in the next four games. He won the best of the game twice and received excellent final evaluations twice. In these four training games, Richard gained 3,500 skill points.
Although Richard has an incredible cheating device, it does not affect Richard's efforts in daily training at all. Richard has achieved gratifying results through unremitting efforts in the past month, because he is very good every time he trains. Investment, because he can listen to the coaches' suggestions with an open mind, and because he is willing to correct his shortcomings; the simplest change is that although Richard's passing is still lacking, But now Richard Start learning to actively pass the ball to your teammates.
Richard's sweat was not in vain, and his efforts finally paid off; Richard is a player with great potential, and there are too many players better than him at Chelsea, but he does not get the attention of the coaches at all. The most important thing is The thing is that Richard didn't pay attention to his own shortcomings at all. Although he knew that his passing was not good, he stubbornly believed that his dribbling could help him get out of the predicament. However, after being kicked out of the Chelsea youth team, Richard began to face himself. Maybe His dribbling is good, but he also understands that his skills are not inferior to those of players of the same age. It can be said that he has no advantages at all, but it is different now. Richard, who has suffered setbacks, can position himself more clearly. , Richard, who understood his shortcomings, also began to try to make changes. After a month of training, Richard's short pass was no longer a tragic 59, but a just passing score of 60!
You must know that this is not improved by Richard using the 'perfect midfield system', this is a real success achieved through training!
As for the skill points this month, Richard has used these skill points where they are more needed. The youth team coaches hope that Richard can work hard at the midfielder position to create better opportunities for his teammates and be able to Organizing the team's offense, Richard is no stranger to this position. Richard often appears in this position in Chelsea's youth team. So Richard gritted his teeth and put all the skill points he had accumulated in a month into ball control. Now Richard's ball control ability has been significantly improved. With 5500 skill points, the ball control value has been increased to 83!
For Richard, this is a harvest season!
