Chapter 9: Hard Training and Teammates

At 7:30 in the morning, Li Qingshan opened his eyes. The summer sun comes very early www.biquge.info the room after seven o'clock has ushered in the scorching sunlight outside the window.

He rolled over and watched the half-hidden curtains sway gently in the early morning breeze, and the sun shimmered through the rickety cracks. Yang Bao was already humming a song in the bathroom and tossing his hair in the mirror.

Li Qingshan squinted his eyes slightly, the summer sun was always a little dazzling.

It was a hazy drowsiness that he had left, interrupted by the coldness of his cheeks.

Li Qingshan found that his pillow sheets were actually wet, he sat up and found that there were still a lot of wet places, basically the entire back and back of the head area were covered.

This is certainly not saliva from sleeping, but sweat. After Li Qingshan woke up, he felt that his whole body was sticky—his whole body was sweating.

It's like having a nightmare.

In fact, it was indeed a nightmare, he recalled.

For a whole night, several days had passed in his dream, because five hours had passed in the dream, and only an hour had passed in reality. I really don't know how people in the future will do it.

For the whole night, he practiced the two basic technical movements of "stopping the ball" and "heavy artillery" in his dreams. After each round, the muscles of the whole body are shaking, but a "recovery capsule" immediately returns the body to its optimal state, followed by a boring round of training..........

He found that it was much more difficult for him to improve his abilities than in the game, and he didn't know how many rounds of training he had gone through in his dreams, and his ability value had not changed at all.

The training he imagined was like a game, and after completing many technical moves, a burst of exciting music sounded, and the system reminded him that his ability value had improved.

However, the actual situation is that he practiced stopping the ball again and again, and each time the system pointed out several mistakes, it was not purely a situation where he suddenly had an epiphany after doing one action many times.

Lin Guo explained that basic technical practice is a process where practice makes perfect, and there is no black technology that suddenly gives people technical ability in the game of football training camp, and all training is the same as in reality, and you will be tired after practicing for a long time, and you may even be injured. It's just that soccer camps offer more training time.

"Success without hard work is in the air," Lin Guo finally concluded.

So he repeated it again and again, and did it again and again.

But his stats still haven't changed. But Li Qingshan is not discouraged - if he can improve through a day or two of training, then everyone in this world is Messi.

Soon Li Qingshan was interrupted by his own interfering throat - after sweating so much, his body was already hungry and thirsty.

So he got out of bed and went to the living room to drink a large glass of water. At this time, he sniffed the sweat on his body, and walked into the bathroom with a change of clothes.

When he came out of the shower, Yang Bao was already dressed up and ready to go out.

"Good morning," Li Qingshan greeted.

"Get up, Qingshan" Yang Bao said while arranging the collar of his shirt: "By the way, our team is going to go out and play together this afternoon, let's go together"

"I'm really sorry, Brother Yang, I found a part-time job, I went to play in a team, and I will go to the team's training later," Li Qingshan said.

"It seems that you promised Irma," Yang Bao had no surprised expression at all.

"I know FC United as a team, it was big news when they were formed. Kick Qingshan well, and I will pull a group of Chinese classmates to cheer you on. Yang Bao said.

Amateur teams don't have as many processes as professional teams, and there are no fan meetings, media interviews, etc. For Li Qingshan now, joining this team now is the same as Yang Bao working as a bartender at Newton's Sith Bar, which is just equivalent to a part-time job in his study career in the UK.

For playing in the amateur league in England, Li Qingshan is also full of expectations. England is now the birthplace of football, from the professional league to the amateur league, from top to bottom, forming a ten-level pyramid league system.

Being able to play in such a football environment for a few years, and then returning to China, when it comes to your life in England, can also have a strong touch.

Of course, he's just a rookie student who has just arrived in the UK, a newcomer to the team, and all he needs to do now is meet his team-mates.

Assistant coach Roy took Li Qingshan to the locker room and handed him over to the team's captain, Mike Lee. Norton was gone.

In general, it is the captain's responsibility to introduce new players to their teammates.

All of the players at FC United are English, or most of them Manchester. But most of them have a lot of experience.

For example, the team's captain, Dean Stout.

The captain was born at Burnley, who became the starting point of his football career. Although he has played for Burnley's youth and reserve teams on a number of occasions, in May 2008 Burnley did not intend to offer him a professional contract after completing his apprenticeship with Stout.

Championship club Piston then offered him an olive branch and offered him a one-year professional contract. In the 2008-09 season, he was given the number 35 shirt for Pston but was more likely to appear in the reserve league, and as a reserve team captain, Stott performed admirably, but Pston did not renew his contract at the end of the season when he was 20 years old.

As a 20-year-old player, for many clubs, the value of training has basically been lost. In the summer of 2009, Stott decided to leave professional football to join the semi-professional club Hyde United, where he played in the North Division of the National League that season, where he spent two seasons.

In the summer of 2011, Stott moved to FC United, wearing the number six shirt and making 53 appearances that season, making him an absolute mainstay of the team. This season he was appointed as the new captain of the team by Coach Marginson.

Dean Stott, who is 1.81 meters tall, looked at Li Qingshan with his head raised.

An East face guy, which is quite unusual for his team, in the FC United team, most of them are locals living in the local community. And Li Qingshan is the first foreign aid of FC United.

The other people in the locker room were very curious when they saw the captain bring a big man over, and they kept staring at Li Qingshan. After a moment of silence, the locker room was filled with noise again.

Adam, who defended Li Qingshan yesterday. Jones subconsciously touched the bruise under his ribs, and the big man left too much impression on him yesterday.

It felt like ..... he wasn't defending a human, he was a giant bear.

Dean Stocker introduced him one by one: "This is goalkeeper James Spencer, here's defender Lee Neville, this is striker Matthew Wolfendon, here's defender Jerome Wright, here's defender Adam Jones......... This is striker Mike. Norton, but our team's top scorer."

Hearing that this was the top scorer, Li Qingshan couldn't help but take a look. After seeing Mike. After Norton's appearance, he thought that this was a player with a fierce thug role, and people should not be deceitful.

His teammates welcomed him.

Adam. Jones, the central defender who had been fighting against Li Qingshan for a long time yesterday, also stepped forward and patted Li Qingshan on the shoulder to show friendship.

Finally, captain Dean Stott introduced Li Qingshan's origin - "He came to the trial yesterday and is a Chinese, please help him a lot." ”

Some people are very interested in Li Qingshan.

It was big news when FC United was formed, so fans in many parts of England knew the name of the seventh-tier amateur team. Every year, at the beginning of the season, a group of players come to the team for a tryout.

But this is the first time a foreigner has joined the team, especially a Chinese.

Sam Hall, who was born in 1994, imitated Bruce Lee and said, "Kung Fu! Kung fu! Li, do you Chinese know kung fu? ”

There is also interest in his size, who looks taller than the team's tallest two men, Matthew Wolfendon and goalkeeper Jon Vosnop.

Matthew Wolfendon asked Li Qingshan: "How tall are you, Lee?" ”

Li Qingshan replied: "One hundred and ninety centimeters." ”

After hearing this answer, Matthew patted Li Qingshan on the shoulder: "Congratulations, you are now the tallest person in FC United!" ”

This was the first time Li Qingshan and his teammates met.
