Chapter 11: Yang Chen
At the end of July, Chen Lin and his entourage returned to BJ again, before head coach Tsoko and assistant coach Bucirini had rushed back to Italy to organize the team's training camp to prepare for next season's League C and 2. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info
And Chen Lin, Pugli and others also bought return tickets, but before leaving, Chen Lin went to the BJ sports training team. There is also a deep-sea pearl that is temporarily unknown and well hidden.
Yang Chen, one of the most accomplished players in Europe in the future, once became the leading scorer of the Bundesliga team Frankfurt. In 2002, China broke into the World Cup as the main striker. If General Fan's physical condition is one of the best among Chinese players, then a comparison between Yang Chen and him can be simply concluded that the height of 185cm is almost the same as that of General Fan, but the weight is heavier than General Fan, but if you think that Yang Chen is just a center in the traditional sense, it is a big mistake, the speed of more than 100 meters and 11 meters can definitely blind your dog's eyes.
Yang Chen, who was born in 1974, was still an 18-year-old hairy boy at this time, although he was selected for the national youth team, but his position in the BJ sports training team was a little embarrassing, and he was still in the BJ youth team at the age of 18, because there was a young genius Gao Feng who seemed to be more talented than him in the BJ youth team, Gao Feng, who was only more than two years older than Yang Chen, had proven himself in the national competition, and at the Olympic qualifiers held at the beginning of the year, head coach Xu Genbao even hesitated about who he and Hao Haidong would play. In addition, at this time, Gao Hongbo, the leading striker of the BJ senior team, was only 25 years old, and the golden combination composed of the two high schools firmly occupied the forward position of the BJ team, and Yang Chen almost did not see the possibility of replacing him.
In the future, the BJ sports training team was reorganized into BJ Guoan Club and became a strong team in the A League, but Yang Chen's opportunities were lackluster, and until 1998, before landing in the Bundesliga Frankfurt, Yang Chen had little fame in China.
Chen Lin only said three words to Yang Chen: "The fastest way to improve at your age is to compete, how likely do you think you are to replace Ergao and become the main striker of the BJ team?" ”
Although most of the young people's personalities are not afraid of tigers, and there are few convincing people, Yang Chen's personality belongs to a very calm and rational type, so he is not angry.
"Now there is no formal professionalism in China, there is no transfer system, if you want to go to other clubs to play, you can only go abroad, although Prato is only a Serie C team, but we can guarantee your position, this can be written into the contract."
Hearing this, Yang Chen wanted to speak and stopped. Chen Lin smiled and said: "I know that everyone hopes that they can go to Serie A, but I think it will take a process, do you think it is easier to stay in the domestic league that does not know what day the professionalism is to let the Serie A club know, or go to Prato, which is good enough to participate in the Coppa Italia and face to face with the Serie A team, is it easier to be discovered?" ”
After hearing this, Yang Chen was silent. A few days later, Chen Lin's group of people who flew from BJ to Italy had another yellow face.
Due to the imminent start of the second league, after reaching a basic intention with the BJ team, Chen Lin took Yang Chen to fly to Italy to participate in the pre-match training camp in advance, and his transfer procedures were handled by the staff of the Prato club who stayed behind.
Before the start of the season, Prato still have three friendlies to play, against Fiorentina and Empoli, who are also part of the same region, and Ravenna in the third division.
After Yang Chen arrived in Prato, the club had already found a dormitory for him, which was located near Chinatown, which was of course ordered by Chen Lin in advance, and Yang Chen was also surprised by the strong Chinese atmosphere here, familiar faces, familiar language, familiar signboard text, almost no feeling of going abroad, the original nervous mood was gradually replaced by a cordial feeling, after all, it was only 18 years old, no matter how calm and precocious, he was also full of worries about the foreign country with language barriers. Although there are not too many obstacles in life, Chen Lin still hired a language teacher for him, and learning Italian can more easily understand the coach's tactics and communicate with teammates.
Yang Chen underwent a comprehensive medical examination on the third day of his arrival in Prato, and Bucirini, who is also the team doctor and strength coach, excitedly said to Chen Lin after receiving the results: "Mr. President, this compatriot of yours is very good in physical fitness, and he is now the fastest player in the team. ”
Chen Lin smiled and nodded, there is nothing more face-saving than his own face. As for Yang Chen's speed, it is rated as a bright gold 17 in "FM2032". In FM2032, the qualities of players are divided into 20 grades, of which 10 or less is marked as white, 11-12 is green as "average", 13-14 is blue as "good", 15-16 is purple as "excellent", 17-18 is bright gold as "outstanding", and 19 or above is "unparalleled" dark gold.
"The lads you've brought in this year are very strong and we have a real hope this season." After a simple training camp, Toldo, Pexoto and others showed their original strength, which made the original Prato coaching staff, who were originally skeptical of him, begin to convince him.
"Of course!" Chen Lin thought so in his heart, and the information of these people in "FM2032" couldn't help but appear in his mind:
Toldo: CA/PA: 129/182
Pesotho: CA/PA: 126/167
Dhoni: CA/PA: 110/165
Gianni Qaeda: CA/PA: 105/158
Materazzi: CA/PA: 101/172
Yang Chen: CA/PA: 93/144
Anyway, he is also a future international player, although he has not yet reached the peak of his career, but his current strength is far beyond a group of players in the second league around him, you must know that the highest CA rating in the Prato team is only 91 Pitini.
However, just when everyone in the Prato club was full of ambition, three consecutive defeats in three friendly matches, 0:1 loss to Empoli, 0:4 loss to Fiorentina, 0:2 loss to Ravenna, no goal scored, Chen Lin from head to toe like a basin of cold water, ruthless analogy told him that football is not as simple as he imagined.
