In fact, Lee Tong-fan noticed the Dutch teenager Nasser Balacht as early as the FM2007 era a year ago!

However, at that time the little one was still a member of Arsenal's Under-18 youth team. And the reason why Lao Li remembers Balaqi is not because of this young player's outstanding talent, but because the Dutch actually has the same exaggerated "surname" as the little oriental giant Yao Ming - high!

It's too high!

At the age of seventeen, he has a height of 1.94 meters, I don't know how much he will reach when he becomes an adult?

Such an innate advantage can take its place even in the NBA's long crowd. If it is changed to the green field, let the little Balachite choose the goalkeeper position or the center position, it is definitely a piece of jade that can be carved!

What's more worth mentioning is that the current Balavet is actually an attacking midfielder in FM2008, which is enough to show that the Dutch youngster's flexible surname and footwork are still good!

Sure enough, in the FM2008 system, it is not bad to give the key values for Balachite - [speed] [explosiveness] double fifteen, [passing] sixteen, as for [creativity], [bravery], [judgment], [calmness] and other values exceed ten...... For a 17-year-old underage player, that's already very high!

The only thing Li Tongfan can't figure out is why Arsene Wenger, a professor who has always been known for discovering and nurturing young talents, would be willing to sell future star Balachite to Newcastle?

And the transfer fee is only a mere 57.5 pounds?

…… As for the mixed-race rice bucket Jiji, in fact, Lao Li has never forgotten it!

It's just that on the one hand, because the Magpies' first team has been too busy in the past one or two months, Li Tongfan has no time to take care of this mixed-race rice bucket for the time being; On the other hand, Lao Li actually has some plans to continue to investigate this little guy's professional attitude.

You must know that if you want to become a truly great football player, in addition to your love for football, you must also have a heart that can withstand loneliness and know how to constantly learn from all aspects of experience, and have a clear plan for your career!

And now it looks like the little guy is doing a good job!

It can be seen from the FM2008 system that Gigi's position on the field is that of a striker. And he is actually the top scorer in Newcastle's Under-18 youth team, Gigi has scored a total of 13 goals in a limited 11 starts and eight substitute appearances!

That's a pretty piece of data!

To be honest, the excellent performance of the mixed-race rice bucket surprised Li Tongfan a little!

Think of the little guy's emaciated body, and then think of his scarred right leg...... Lao Li thought that even if he had made Gigi "mix" like Newcastle Youth through his relationship with Tolosi Tang, the little guy would only be a role player who was a bastard, who knows...... Could it be that the talent of this mixed-race rice bucket is unexpectedly good?

Li Tongfan opened the FM-mm with great interest, and soon retrieved Jiji's data!

However, to Lao Li's disappointment, the truth is the opposite of his guess, the evaluation of Jiji in the FM2008 system is not high, and it can even be said to be low!

Very low!

[Potential] 100, [Current Ability] 85!

Such a stature is extremely common among the many young players in the Newcastle Under-18 youth team!

Where is the talent?

What's even more terrifying is that the little guy's [Injury Tendency] is as high as 80, a typical glass human physique!

Judging by these combined numbers, among all 34 young players in the Magpies U18 youth team, Gigi's potential is not even in the top 20!

So why did the little guy become the top scorer for the Magpies youth team?

After carefully observing Gigi's data again, and comparing the relevant data of other players in the youth team, Lao Li finally found a clue - the gap between Jiji's [potential ability] and [current ability] is very, very small, only 15 points!

In other words, Gigi's [current ability] is at the top of the 34 U18 players!

Moreover, this small number of 85 [current ability] points is very reasonably allocated to the key genus that a striker should have - although [speed] and [explosiveness] are affected by the constitution and just past the double ten, [shooting], [dribbling], [technique], [field running] ...... And so on, all of them have reached the level of a first-class professional player!

On the contrary, the values of [Sliding], [Throw-in], [Corner], etc., are all zero!

There can only be one explanation for this phenomenon - Gigi is an extremely smart, extremely hard player!

He is said to be smart because Gigi has transformed all his potential into the ability to be a striker in the most scientific way possible in training, and has not wasted any points that are extremely valuable to him! Such a player clearly has a clever brain.

In other words, Gigi is the kind of person who can use his "brain" to kick a ball!

And he said that he worked hard because Gigi is the only player among the 34 young Under-18s who can improve [current ability] to such a percentage!

Such a high utilization ratio of [potential ability] to [current ability] is rare even among many international superstars. For example, in the 07-08 season, the world's hottest C-Ronaldo, [potential ability] got 196, but [current ability] is only 180...... Calculated up, C-Ronaldo's ability utilization rate is not even as good as Gigi's!

It's hard to imagine how much hard work and sweat it took for Jiji, who has mediocre talent, to have such a result!

However, the current level has basically reached the apex that Jiji can achieve in this life! No matter how hard this mixed-race rice bucket tries in the future, there will be no significant improvement!

Because, for the mixed-race rice bucket Gigi, the fatal flaw lies in the innate physical fitness and football potential!

However, are these two fatal shortcomings for other coaches still a problem in front of Lao Li?

As long as you have enough character points, you're all set!

…… The next afternoon.

The weather was clear.

Newcastle Rigberton Training Base!

With a grueling Old Trafford game just under the wheel and a few days to go for the next game against Aston Villa, the Newcastle first-team stars have been given two days off, so the base is a bit empty.

But it's empty, but it's not silent!

Because when Lee Tong Fan arrived at the Rigber training base, he was surprised to find a fierce match going on on the lawn of Court 4 - the Magpies U18 youth team was facing the penultimate round opponent of the first group of England's under-18 youth league, Liverpool youth team!

At this time, the game had reached the 70th minute of the game, and the away Liverpool youth team led the Magpies U18 echelon 3:1! And judging from the scene, the Magpie U18 echelon was firmly suppressed by the other side.

If this situation continues, it is estimated that it will not be long before the score gap between the two teams will widen!

Since it was a youth team game, there were hardly any fans or reporters who came here to watch the game! There are occasionally some middle-aged uncles or uncles with sunglasses and notebooks pointing on the sidelines, which should be full-time scouts!

Soon after Lao Li came to the sidelines, he was discovered by Miguel Pearson, the head coach of the U18 echelon!

The 32-year-old skinny England coach was obviously very surprised by the arrival of Li Tongfan! Because after the madman Lee became the head coach of the first team, today is the first time to pay attention to the U18 game!

Actually, Pearson misunderstood, the stuffy man didn't know there was a match before he came, he just came to observe the training of Balakit and Gigi...... But since there's a competition, it's the best!

"Lee, it's a pleasure for you to come ......"

Pearson was a mad admirer of Crazy Lee. In fact, there aren't many people in Newcastle who don't worship the madman Lee. Therefore, for Lao Li's arrival, Pearson immediately expressed a 120,000-point welcome: "The children have long wanted your personal guidance...... You see, in the eyes of these little ones, you are no different from God Almighty! ”

The vanity of the stuffy man has been greatly satisfied, but as a high-quality idol in the new era, Lao Li still expressed his modesty at the first time!

"Miguel, it doesn't seem to be a good situation......" Li Tongfan glanced at the situation on the court after a polite look!

As soon as he said about the game, Miguel Pearson's brow immediately furrowed: "The little guys have worked hard, but Liverpool has a few good seedlings ......"

Li Tongfan nodded in understanding.

Then take a closer look at the situation on the field!

Dutch teenager Nasser Balacht really appeared in the midfield position, this 1.94 meter tall young player is very eye-catching among his peers, with good skills under his feet and a strong ability to get rid of the spot! However, because they are far from goal, they are not much of a threat to Liverpool's youth team, as Balakit's threatening ball is wasted by his own strikers...... And Ji Ji, the key object of Li Tongfan's investigation, was not on the scene!

What's going on?

Could it be that Gigi didn't get a chance to start? No, according to FM2008 data, he is the striker with the most goals for Newcastle's Under-18s this season...... Turning his head and glancing at the bench not far away, he found that among a bunch of substitute players, the beautiful Jiji with thick black ear-length hair on his cheeks was sitting on the sidelines watching the game intently, sighing anxiously from time to time...... The little one has apparently not yet found out where he has arrived!

Seeing this, Li Tongfan had a plan in his heart! Turning his head and smiling, he suggested to Pearson: "Miguel, I think the big guy is more dangerous if he is closer to goal......

"You mean Balachipe?" Pearson looked at Li Tongfan's finger and was a little puzzled: "But his shooting and header are not very good......

"It's okay, let's try it!"

…… So, under Lao Li's "reading talent", Pearson quickly changed his tactics!

After the formation!

The 1.94m Nasser Balachit did pose a big threat to the opposition when he entered the Liverpool youth team's penalty area, but the Dutchman's poor shooting skills always made him miss the goal!

Seeing this, the sullen man turned around with a smile and asked Pierce: "Are there any substitutes who have a strong ability to seize opportunities?" Be flexible and play with your brain......"

"Gigi might give it a try!"

Pearson did not hesitate to "bite" Li Tongfan's bait, and turned around to beckon Jiji to come over to warm up!

It wasn't until this time that the young players of Newcastle U18 found out that the madman Lee who had saved Newcastle didn't know when he came to the sidelines, and all the hula came around!

The huge cheers that suddenly erupted from the little ones are enough to show the weight of Lao Li in the hearts of the little players!

After trying to put on the purest and most cordial face and greet these "flowers of Newcastle", Li Tongfan unceremoniously "overstepped his bounds" -- the right to start the on-the-spot command in place of Pierce!

Gigi was soon substituted and formed a new attacking combination for Newcastle's Under-18 team with Balachite!

In this way, the opportunity created by the Dutch big man was cheaper than Gigi, although he couldn't grasp it himself! The mixed-race rice bucket is significantly higher than its peers in the penalty area!

Newcastle U18 raised the most primitive and simple long pass at the request of Li Tongfan, and the young players obviously looked demoralized because they found out the arrival of the madman Lee! The score was finally equalized before the end of the game, and it was Gigi who scored for the team! The little guy caught Balachi's ball twice and sent the ball to the door of Liverpool's youth team twice!

In the end, the Magpies U18 echelon drew the "strong" Liverpool youth team under the change of formation of the madman Lee!

After signing autographs for the enthusiastic young players and fulfilling their request for a group photo, in the midst of everyone's envious eyes, Lee Tong-beom pointed to Balachit and Gigi and said to the head coach of the youth team, Miguel Pearson:

"Let these two little ones report to the first team tomorrow!"
