Chapter 292: Plan Ahead
The next day, Newcastle's first-team break ended, and all the stars had to report to the Rigberton training base by 8.30am.
And first-team rookies Nasser Balakit and Gigi are obviously the first to come!
When assistant coach Alan Shearer arrived at the training base an hour and a half early, as usual, Gigi and Balakit were already jogging on the No. 1 lawn to warm up!
Two fun little guys!
The fiery morning sun, the golden morning glow, the wisps of breeze, and the crisp birdsong...... Everything in Rigberton is bathed in the glow of the red sky that is slowly rising from the beaches of Newcastle. Standing on the sidelines of the training ground and looking at the two hard-working teenagers on the turquoise field, it was as if he had seen a bright future for Newcastle...... Ever since Lee came to Newcastle, it seems like all the bad has turned out to be the best overnight!
After watching the training of the two little ones in a soothing mood for a few minutes, Shearer did not make a noise and quietly returned to his office!
…… On the training ground!
“…… Hey, Gigi, do you guess we'll get a chance to play in the remaining two Premier League games? ”
It was Balachite who was questioned.
Don't look at Balaki's tall and seemingly similar to Peter Pan's Robben-style precociousness, but in terms of surname, he is very similar to Newcastle's future captain Steven Taylor - belongs to the kind of guy with a little perseverance and cunning in the simplicity, so when he came to the first team to report on the first day, he was already fantasizing about being able to eat a big fat man in one bite and dominate the Premier League!
"Uh...... If the team can take a big lead in the game and the two of us are lucky enough to be in the starting lineup, I think there should be a three-to-four-percent chance......
Gigi smiled in response to Bala's strange question, and accelerated forward, then paused abruptly, and then accelerated again...... The foot movement is so repeated!
Obviously training his explosiveness.
It seems that the smart half-breed rice bucket has long found that he is far behind others in terms of speed and explosiveness, and wants to make up for it through the usual workouts for the surname! But if the little guy knew that his innate physical fitness had already limited his development potential, I don't know how he would react?
"Oh, damn it, can't you comfort me with this? Three or four percent, such a probability...... Whew, how could Mr. Rice Bucket treat a genius like me like this? ”
Balaki grinned in pain and disappointment, but his heart had already blossomed!
Yesterday, when Lee Tong-beom said to youth team coach Miguel Pearson, "Let these two little guys report on the first team tomorrow", Balachite almost thought he had heard it wrong! You must know that after moving his position forward to the forward line at that time, he did not perform anything other than stirring up the Liverpool youth team penalty area, but wasted several scoring opportunities...... All night last night, Balakite was so excited that he didn't fall asleep!
What happened at Arsenal a year ago is vivid, and the Frenchman, who he regarded as his own father, dealt with it even more in despair. What's even more cruel is that for a young player who has just turned 17 years old, being returned by Arsenal is basically a death sentence for his football career!
Because even the godfather of young players Arsene Wenger is not optimistic about the guy, that team will want?
Therefore, Balachit had to transfer to Newcastle at a very low price and mix it up in the Under-18s...... So you can understand the excitement of Balakit's entry into the first team!
And just when Balacht was at his most desperate, and even he himself began to doubt his own strength and potential, the madman Lee, the only man in European football who could match Wenger in terms of training young players, appeared in front of him like a shining god and affirmed his potential...... At that moment, Balakit was like a landlubber that was about to drown, and when it was about to sink to the bottom, it suddenly got a life-saving driftwood...... Arsenal, Professor!
I, Balakit, will prove to you what a mistake you made in the first place!
And, of course, that damn guy, I'm going to beat you up on the pitch!
…… Half past eight in the morning!
After all the player reports, Lee Tong-beom introduced the two young players Gigi and Balachite to the first-team stars:
"Guys, I would like to introduce you to two lovely gentlemen, who will be the future ...... Newcastle" Lao Li smiled and pointed to the two of them: "I hope you can help them as you ...... your own family"
Led by captain Michael Owen, the veteran players extended a warm welcome to the arrival of these two juniors!
This is just a brief introduction, and the training starts in a few minutes. Gigi and Balakit joined the first team and trained seriously according to the coach's arrangement!
And the captain Owen was called aside by the boss Maniac Lee, and the two were discussing something!
After a while, Owen came over with a smile and took two documents, and patted Gigi and Balaqi's shoulders: "Lucky little guy, this is the training plan given to you by the boss, as long as you strictly follow this plan in the future, you will soon be able to play in the first team!" ”
"What's the plan?" Balakit took his own information first and took a general look: "This...... Did it work? Mr. Rice Bucket...... Uh, no, the boss knows a lot......"
After entering the first team, he had to change his name to Li Tongfan.
In the UK, managers are generally referred to as bosses!
"Stupid, how can the boss's stuff be useless?"
Gigi said thank you, took the information from the captain Owen, and then jumped up and patted the back of Balaqi's head, pointing to the distance: "Look at the envious eyes of your teammates, you can know that this is a treasure...... A sucker! ”
"Stupid" Bala turned his head to look at the new first-team teammates who were training in the distance, and sure enough, he found that the group of guys kept looking this way, and their eyes were full of envy...... So the Dutch teenager smiled, and hurriedly and carefully loaded the information in his hand into his duffel bag on the sidelines like a thief!
Owen, on the other hand, looked at Gigi in some surprise and found that the little guy was more clever than he had imagined.
That's right, in fact, not only the teammates are envious, but even Owen himself is a little envious of these two little guys!
Because according to the observation of his teammates in the last month or two, Li Tongfan will give each first-team player a very detailed and very personal training plan. At first, the hammers, who were a little suspicious at the beginning, were pleasantly surprised to find that the original plan had a surprising effect!
And what is more noteworthy is that the thicker the training information given by the boss to which player, it seems to indicate that the higher the status of this player in his heart, and the faster the ability of this lucky guy will improve!
Prior to that, Owen, Juan Mata and Steven Taylor were the first-team players with the most training profiles, with thirteen pages each, followed by goalkeepers Givens and Alan Smith with eight pages each...... As for the others, it ranges from one page to four or five pages!
Today, Gigi and Nasser Balacht have access to information that significantly exceeds the previous record for the highest number of pages. And Owen also noticed a small detail, when the boss looked at Gigi, there was obviously a little smile and appreciation in his eyes, and when he handed over the information to the two lucky winners, Owen counted carefully, Balachite got eighteen pages, and Gigi ...... It's an incredible thirty-eight pages!
Looking at this small forward called Gigi is very important in the heart of the boss!
…… After returning to the office, Li Tongfan yawned and rubbed his eyes!
Last night, in order to prepare the information for Jiji and Balaqi, Lao Li stayed up until two or three o'clock in the middle of the night!
Those data are the results of Lao Li's query from the FM system database, with a certain period of time forward-looking surname and predicted surname, according to the above method of training of course, the effect is amazing!
This method can be regarded as the latest cheating method developed by Li Tongfan after studying the FM2008 system database. At least in terms of buying people's hearts and pretending to be coerced, it is an invincible, all-old and young nirvana!
And the [Character Points] consumed every time you query the system database are not much!
Of course, all the information is taken out after being processed by the stuffy man, and a lot of shocking content is removed, and the material is disguised as simple and easy to understand as possible...... Even in order to prevent the secret from leaking, everything was copied by Li Tongfan himself word by word!
Michael Owen is right, among the two young players Gigi and Balachite, Li Tongfan values the most is of course the old acquaintance's mixed-race rice bucket!
But what Owen didn't know was that the reason why Balachte was able to get more information than him and Juan Mata was because the Dutchman was still young, and there were a lot of habits and technical moves on the court, so there were more things to take care of, not because Balacht was more important than them in Lao Li's mind!
…… For the next whole day, Li Tongfan never left his office!
In addition to making countless phone calls, I just took out my black notebook and wrote and drew on it!
Until dark!
This is a rare scene!
Because for a while, although he is used to being a hands-off shopkeeper, Li Tongfan will more or less spare a little time every day, wearing ink mirrors and standing on the side of the training ground like a telephone pole to pay attention to the team's training, after all, it is not good to leave everything to Alan Shearer, a hard-working man!
But Li Tongfan can't spare time these days!
Because the stuffy man has already started to scratch his ears and cheeks for next season's team's lineup!
First of all, there are a lot of Magpies first-team players who have to be cleaned these days!
What is certain is that 80 per cent of the familiar faces of the Newcastle first team will have to leave St James' Park next season. This is the cruelty of professional football, there is no way, only the strong can survive on the green field! In the next purge, if possible, Lao Li hopes to be able to send these "old people" who have played for Newcastle for several seasons to a club that is happy for both sides!
Secondly, someone will come when someone leaves!
Lee has been sifting through a wide range of players to determine which players are eligible to fight for Newcastle under his command and on the green pitch at St James' Park, and to win the supreme honour of football with him!
As things stand, the forward line should be strengthened, the midfield should be strengthened, the back line should be strengthened, and the goalkeeper also lacks a qualified substitute...... God, Li Tongfan patted his head and pinched his fingers, if he wants to make a difference on all fronts next season, every position of Newcastle must be replenished with fresh blood, and he must start as soon as possible!
There are many fans who are accustomed to thinking that the transfer between football club players is carried out after the end of the league and the opening of the international transfer market, which is actually a very fatal blind view, if as the head coach of a club you also have the same view as these fans, then you are miserable, waiting to eat the leftovers of others!
Because in addition to the transfer see-saw soap opera of some big-name red stars, in fact, the transfer matters of many powerful players have been finalized by both clubs before the transfer market opens, and it is enough to complete the procedures and make an announcement after the transfer market opens!
Everything was premeditated!
For Newcastle, the transfer fee for next season must be limited, because the "quasi-owner" Li Tongfan himself cannot provide too much transfer funds for the team, and Sir Hall, another major shareholder, although he loves the Magpies, will not be generous enough to spend tens of millions of pounds for Lao Li to squander!
Therefore, in addition to digging potential internally and using modifiers to modify players, Lao Li also has to rely on the prediction of this "scouting tool" to predict some demon players who are not famous for the time being but will shine sooner or later in the transfer market, or old players who are already very famous but are in a state of flux due to their age!
High-potential young players will become the cornerstone of Newcastle's future dominance in football step by step after training, and those old players are still in a state of decline, but their innate awareness and technical foundation are still there, even if they use FM-MM to modify, they will not consume too many [character points]!
It's a pity that such a player is very sought-after in the football market!
Li Tongfan will not be arrogant and arrogant to think that only with FM scouting tools in his hand is a "person who knows the goods", you must know that there are many scouts who are born with "sharp eyes" in international football, and a future star may pass by his own shoulder to shoulder if he is not careful.
Therefore, Lee Tong-fan must get it done before the other teams do it!
With the 37th round of Premier League fixtures just four days away, Newcastle will host Aston Villa at St James' Park!
Lee plans to make a trip to Germany, Italy and Spain before the start of this game to take next season's Newcastle strikers into his arms......
