Chapter 5: The First Arrival
Anelka and the others accompanied Ling Feng back to the hostel to take out his luggage, and secretly dug out the lottery ticket under the floor when no one was paying attention, and the group rushed to the players' dormitory.
To be honest, the environment of this dormitory is not bad, surrounded by quiet green space, the air is very good, and it can be regarded as the fragrance of birds and flowers.
If you have to say that there is a fly in the ointment, it is the interior of the dormitory......
Is this still a place for people to live? The room was full of clothes and socks, and as soon as he pushed the door, Ling Feng was almost shocked by the stench that came to his face......
Looking at Anelka's innocent eyes, Ling Feng gritted his teeth to help him clean up the house, but the hateful thing was that Anelka was still gloating beside him while gnawing on a banana: "I said Ling, there is no need for a man's house to be cleaned up so cleanly, it has been dirty again in a few days." ”
Ling Feng casually hooked a sock on the ground that had not known how many holes it had broken, and the sock landed impartially on the banana that Anelka was biting, but he just took a bite at this time......
A pig-killing howl resounded through the Parc des Princes stadium, startling a flock of resting birds.
Ignoring the chirping Anelka, Ling Feng went to the telephone hall at the door to call Uncle Wang and his "guardian" for a long distance, telling them that everything was going well here and that he had successfully passed the interview of the club, so that they should not worry, and talked about the old times, until Ling Feng couldn't stand their nagging and disconnected on the grounds that the phone was expensive.
Ling Feng picked up the phone again and wanted to call Han Jing's mother, but after the phone rang twice, he heard Han Jing's voice: "Hey, hello." ”
Ling Feng was stunned, he didn't expect it to be Han Jing who answered the phone, he didn't want to have any contact with Han Jing now, so he hung up ruthlessly.
On the other end of the phone, Han Jing took the hung up phone and sent a flute, vaguely, she guessed that it was Ling Feng calling, and a woman's sixth sense is always accurate.
Han Jing's mother asked, "Jingjing, who made the call?" ”
Han Jing barely squeezed out a smile: "I don't know, maybe it's a mistake." ”
Knowing her daughter Mo Ruomu, Han's mother looked at Han Jing's bitter smile, sighed, and walked back to her room.
Ling Feng didn't think about Han Jing ruthlessly, and in the midst of the coaxing of Anelka and the others, he paid out of his own pocket to invite them to a nearby Chinese restaurant to eat.
The owner of the Chinese restaurant is a Sichuan man in his forties, and when he learned that Ling Feng had successfully signed a contract with the Saint-Germain club, he was overjoyed and wanted to invite this meal, which made several people who originally wanted to slaughter Ling Feng uninterested. However, when the authentic Chinese dishes came up, a few gluttonous cats almost didn't get into the plates, and those who didn't know how to use chopsticks couldn't use knives and forks to handle a plate of cut dishes, so they had to get started......
After enjoying a hearty meal, a group of future football elites returned to the dormitory with a full stomach and talked and laughed, but tomorrow's training could not be delayed, and Peter looked terrible when he was angry......
At half past five in the morning the next day, Ling Feng got up, looked to the side, Anelka was not there, thinking that he ran to train by himself at five o'clock yesterday, Ling Feng secretly thought: "Nicholas is really a hardworking person, no wonder he has the top strength in Europe, now that he is here, he is afraid that he will also be regarded as an opponent." ”
Opponents, sometimes more than friends, can bring motivation to themselves.
After washing, Ling Feng put on a 20-kilogram lead block and came to the court, and sure enough, he saw Anelka working hard to practice the trick of shaking the tail of the ox.
"Nicholas, morning!"
Turning around and seeing that it was Ling Feng, Anelka came up with a smile to greet him: "Ling, you got up early, I didn't want to disturb you, so I didn't wake you up." ”
"What time do you usually wake up? You were there when I came yesterday. ”
"It's half past four, sometimes it's late, but I always came to the stadium at five o'clock, and I haven't had a break in three years except for rain and holidays." Anelka is a little proud that not everyone can train so hard.
"Nicholas, you're really great!" Ling Feng was sincerely admired.
"Thank you, Ling, but you're better than me, and I've made you my target." Anelka said seriously.
"I welcome challenges," Ling Feng smiled: "Let's train together, remember to call me when you get up in the future, two people can train faster than one person." ”
Ling Feng demonstrated to Anelka a few times how to flick the tail of the ox, Anelka looked straight and nodded, Ling Feng slowed down, he saw more clearly.
"That's how it works, it's good to be proficient, and I can barely do this movement after practicing it for three months." Ling Feng said with a smile.
Anelka smiled, gave Ling Feng a thumbs up, and continued to practice by himself, while Ling Feng also began to practice the ball blindfolded.
Anelka's training method for Ling Feng is very strange, and Ling Feng's explanation is: "This kind of practice can enhance the body's perception of the ball. ”
Although Anelka wants to learn from him, he is stubborn and wants to solve this damn cow's tail first, and he can't become a fat man in one bite, and he still understands this truth.
Half an hour later, other teammates also came to the court, and everyone consciously began to warm up and train.
At half-past six, head coach Peter•James arrived on the court with a group of large bags, and the young players immediately stopped their work and stood together because coaches rarely come so early......
Peter greeted everyone and went straight to the point: "Gentlemen, I want to tell you a good news, from today onwards your training volume will be increased, and ......" Peter paused, and asked the person behind him to open the package he brought, "You have to learn from Ling, and you should wear a 5-kilogram weight when running." ”
There was a wail......
Peter put away his smile and said solemnly: "Ling's weight-bearing training has brought a lot of inspiration to the club, but considering that you are still developing at an age, I don't add too much weight to you, you know, your current weight is only the weight that Ling carried when he was seven years old." ”
After a pause, Peter continued: "Abundant physical strength is one of your capital on the football field, so you must accept it. In addition, Mr. President said that if you are doing well, you can end the training early and let you go to the European Championship. ”
Suddenly there was a cheer from the young players, because the European Championship game is around 6 o'clock in the evening, and this time is the last period of the team's training, and if you run to watch it after training, it is usually only the second half left.
Peter smiled: "So what are you waiting for? Gentlemen, pack your gear and start your 10,000-meter physical training now! ”
The wails rang out again......
Anelka walked up to Peter and asked, "Coach, do you have 20 kg leggings?" ”
Peter glanced at him and said with a smile: "Nicholas, I know you want to surpass Ling, but you must know that Ling's weight-bearing practice has been going on for five years, and you are still at the beginning, so don't force it." ”
Ling Feng heard this, and said with a smile: "We have a saying in China called pulling out seedlings to grow, Nicholas, you should gradually adapt to the weight, otherwise it will be harmful to your body." ”
Anelka nodded, turned and went to pick up his gear.
Peter secretly said to Ling Feng: "Ling, there is really you, Nicholas doesn't sell anyone's account, now I only listen to you, please help me train him well in the future." ”
Ling Feng nodded, remembering the evaluation of Anelka in later generations, they all said that he was spoiled, if he knew that someone had always been better than him, there should not be such a situation.
After a day's training, all the little players collapsed on the bed one by one, complaining about Ling Feng, why did he come up with such a perverted training method. However, the person concerned ran to the club's gym like a nobody to continue his strength exercises, which is not such a condition in China, and it would be a pity not to use it.
Anelka silently followed Ling Feng to do strength exercises, Ling Feng knew that he was stubborn, and he didn't persuade him, maybe it would be better.
The training in the club is always boring, the morning is mainly warm-up and technique training, in the afternoon Peter will arrange some small-scale competition practice, but after the competition, everyone has to wear 5 kg leggings for endurance training (Ling Feng is 20 kg), and in the evening is the rest time, Ling Feng does strength exercises are added by himself.
Of course, the youth team is not all practice, and some friendly matches with the youth teams of other clubs are commonplace, but the most important game of the youth team is the French Youth League, also known as the U12 League.
The U12 league does not mean that players over the age of 12 can participate, but that players over the age of 12 can participate, which is relatively formal, but each club does not attach much importance to it, for teenagers, training is the first, and the game is just to increase their experience on the field.
Moreover, the heavy training has caused a general decline in the physical strength of the players, and the club is lazy to care about the children, as long as they don't get injured and don't get poured into double digits, they are basically fine. Not to mention anything else, the gap between 12-year-olds and 15-year-olds is much larger than that between 22-year-olds and 25-year-olds, and the level is not a level, what else is there to compare?
However, some small clubs attach great importance to the U12 league, hoping to develop some potential players from it, get better results for their team, or sell these players, so many teams participate in the U12 league with players over the age of 14 or 5 who are about to enter the first team.
Of course, it is important to promote fresh blood from the youth team and perform in the Under-12 league.
For Ling Feng, the U12 league is also the same chicken rib, and the future ace star of France, Anelka, is now a cut below his own strength, not to mention other opponents.
In the first game, Saint-Germain played against Bordeaux Youth, Ling Feng played half the game boringly, and after scoring five goals easily, he left Anelka and returned to the bench to chat with Peter......
In the second game, Ling Feng didn't play at all, and slept on the bench for 90 minutes......
Two weeks have passed, and the long-awaited European Championship has finally begun.
