Chapter 10 Training
Wu Feng didn't know that before he officially played, his name was already known by many German second teams, and vowed to teach a goalkeeper comparable to Oliver in the game.
At this time, in the Karlsruhe FC training ground, goalkeeper coach Sebastian is trying to correct Wu Feng's goalkeeping skills.
"Hey, Wu, you need to practice the skills of catching the ball and pounceing on the ball now, there are many different ways to catch the ball, your previous goalkeeping skills are really bad, although your reactions, predictions, and speed are very powerful, but your goalkeeping skills need to be re-practiced. You need to understand that there are many different ways to catch the ball, and you need to master it. Since you want to become a professional footballer, then you need to master these basic skills. ”
Before officially signing Wu Feng, Sebastian was carefully observing Wu Feng, and he knew that Wu Feng would definitely be favored by Mr. Becker, so he did a lot of training plans for Wu Feng's goalkeeping skills yesterday.
Catch training is just one of them; What else to pick, save, hold the ball, and even include kick-off, throwing, etc., these skills need to be mastered by Wu Feng, and there is not much time left for him, and the German second division is about to begin.
"You should know by now that you have the strengths, your reflexes, your anticipation, your speed is far better than a lot of goalkeepers, and I'm sure you're even better than Oliver, that's your biggest asset to be the best goalkeeper. However, your basic skills are not solid enough, which may be the biggest constraint for you. ”
After the training, Sebastian asked Wu Feng to carefully analyze him, and then explained that he had tailored a training plan for him.
When the night came, Wu Feng finally finished the first day of training, even with his perennial exercise, he couldn't help but feel a little overwhelmed in the face of these simple and tedious basic movements.
But what he didn't know was that his performance had shocked coach Sebastian, and he had done five times as much training as Sebastian. Originally, Sebastian just trained Wu Feng as planned, but during the training process, he found that Wu Feng's potential was far more than that, so he increased the amount of training, but it was only increased to five times that Wu Feng felt a little unbearable.
The original plan is no longer something that ordinary people can stick to, and after increasing it by five times, it is not at all possible that the human physique can complete it, Sebastian was still afraid of Wu Feng's body after the training, so he carefully checked it for him, only to find that he did not have any discomfort at all except for being a little tired, so he put his mind at ease.
After returning to the apartment, Wu Feng casually made some noodles to eat for dinner, his body was too tired, and after eating, he sat quietly on the balcony and ran the family martial arts, which lasted for more than three hours, and did not end until eleven o'clock in the evening.
The fatigue of training during the day finally recovered after three days of operation, but the acupuncture points in the body still failed to continue to get through, which is what grandpa said that the bottleneck was encountered, and only by accumulating over time can it be slowly opened.
"Wu, cheer up, we need to keep improving!" Sebastian is extremely excited, after this week's training, he began to get excited, Wu Feng's progress is too fast, earth-shaking changes have taken place in just one week, the original basic skills are not enough, at this moment it can be said that he can be completely compared to the team's original main goalkeeper Raman, this is a real genius.
Genius means that you can't look at it with common sense, there's no doubt about that, Sebastian has seen a lot of geniuses, all kinds of football geniuses. But in the goalkeeper position, Wu Feng is naturally the most different, his reaction and prediction ability is too strong, and the rest needs his game experience to accumulate, but one day, he will become the greatest goalkeeper.
As a goalkeeper, it's not that glamorous, and sometimes the goalkeeper has nothing to do for almost the entire game.
However, the role of the goalkeeper is too great, because if they make a mistake, they are likely to be responsible for conceding the goal, or even losing the game, and in the most important moments, it is more likely that the team's hard work will be wasted.
On the football pitch, other positions seem to be more showy, but the requirements for the goalkeeper are absolutely the highest because it is a position where mistakes are not allowed.
Goalkeepers, on the other hand, not only need excellent technology, but also good enough hardware. Height, which is very important, a short goalkeeper may be bombarded with high-altitude balls by opponents. The height of 1.8 meters is definitely relatively short among the goalkeepers, and Wu Feng is less than 1.8 meters.
Although the five items of bounce, speed, flexibility, coordination, and stability can be improved from training, the innate quality is dominant, which is also indispensable.
And psychological quality, willpower and other internal qualities are also very important; Because the goalkeeper position is under a lot of pressure, they need to face a lot of unexpected situations, and they can't be careless at all. There are also some key moments when they also need to make decisive choices, and hesitation is definitely a bad quality for goalkeepers.
In yesterday's game, Wu Feng showed decisiveness and focus that Sebastian appreciated the most, and these are the foundation for becoming a good goalkeeper in the future.
"Woo, you need to keep improving, you're going to be surprised by how fast you're improving, I'm going to get you some information and videos, I think you need to look at the performances of the great goalkeepers so that it helps you improve." Sebastian said happily to Wu Feng.
"I wanted to study some of the technical characteristics of Yashin the Black Spider, who is the greatest goalkeeper in the history of football. I think his technical characteristics should suit me well and I want to be a goalkeeper like that. Wu Feng said with some expectation, although he had not seen Yaxin's skills with his own eyes, but in the games he had played in his previous life, Yaxin was the most senior goalkeeper.
And after this period of training, he naturally knows more. To become a great goalkeeper like Yashin, who is well-rounded, well-positioned, extremely fast, solid in catching the ball, brave in attacking and winning the ball, and especially good at saving penalty kicks, these are all in line with his own characteristics, his own reactions, his ability to observe his surroundings, his speed and strength are far beyond ordinary people.
"No, I don't recommend that you learn some of Yashin's technical characteristics, you can get some experience from the videos of those great goalkeepers, but it doesn't mean that you just want to be them. My favourite goalkeeper is Oliver, who is full of courage and domineering. But Yashin is 1.85 meters, Oliver is 1.88 meters, and even Buffon is more than 1.9 meters tall. Their technical characteristics may not be suitable for you, you need to find your own characteristics. Sebastian seriously analyzed with Wu Feng and said that he felt that Wu Feng could even surpass these goalkeepers.
