Chapter 13: So Fast?!
On the eastern outskirts of Amsterdam, the wooded and beautiful surroundings are home to the Ajax Training Base, the training base of the future. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info
A few chic small buildings, a dozen training turfs, on which countless superstars have been born, Cruyff, Van Basten......
As soon as you enter the base, there is a statue of Cruyff, the most prominent representative of Ajax.
At three o'clock in the afternoon, the heat was unbearable.
Chen Fan and Thomson walked into the base, looking at the statue, Chen Fan sighed: "Peerless Tianjiao! ”
Thomson said without blushing and heartbeat: "Perhaps, in the future, there will also be a statue of you standing here." ”
Chen Fan's eyes became fiery, and he nodded thoughtfully and said, "It's possible." ”
With a super all-around superstar system, of course, to become a superstar, then you will have a place here.
Thomson almost choked on his own saliva, he coughed violently and painfully, Chen Fan patted him on the shoulder and said, "You're okay, don't you believe me?" ”
"Didn't you say I'm going to be a superstar?"
"In that case, I'm qualified to stand here."
Thomson coughed even harder.
"It's good for young people to have such dreams."
At this time, a voice sounded beside them, and the two turned their heads to look at the one who suddenly appeared, in his forties, white, with an ordinary appearance, and a pair of golden eyebrows.
The middle-aged man looked at the statue of Cruyff and said: "Van Basten saw this statue for the first time and said something like this, and later he became the best striker in the world at that time." ”
"He was only twelve years old."
The middle-aged man shifted his gaze to the two of them, stretched out his hand to Thomson and said: "Hello, my name is David, I am the coach of the youth team, Mr. Rick van den Berg said in the morning, you come at three o'clock in the afternoon, you are very punctual, I like such people." ”
Thomson nodded to him and said politely, "Hello, I'm Thomson, Chen Fan's agent." ”
David looked at Thomson with a smile and said, "I know you." ”
Thomson's face flushed, and a hint of embarrassment appeared.
Chen Fan did not refute the identity of Thomson's agent, since he completed my request, let him be his agent.
David shifted his gaze to Chen Fan, looked at him carefully and said, "You are Chen Fan?" ”
Chen Fan stretched out his hand and took the initiative to shake hands with him, nodded and said, "Yes, sir." ”
"Rick van den Berg told me about you, but I have my own principles, and since he has given me the power, it means that he is very comfortable with me, and I will not be biased in any way towards you."
David thought that Chen Fan had found Rick van den Berg through connections, and Rick van den Berg had no choice but to agree to the young man for a trial.
How strong can a player who has been denied by Mr. Michels be?
If he had known that Arkadiusz Milik had been blown up by Chen Fan yesterday afternoon, perhaps he would not have had such thoughts.
Rick van den Berg didn't tell him about it, mainly because he didn't want to influence him, hoping that he could confirm Chen Fan's ability through his own judgment.
If Chen Fan can show the level of yesterday afternoon's game during the tryout, David will definitely keep him.
David, who was kept in the dark, didn't think Chen Fan was strong.
Thomson and Chen Fan didn't react, which made David feel a slight strange emotion in his heart, could they have no fear?
"We'll talk as we walk."
David let go of the doubts in his mind and led the two of them towards the training turf.
Anyway, everything is in my hands, no matter what your relationship is, as long as you don't have the ability, I won't give anyone face!
"The afternoon procedure is like this, first with a fitness test, then training with the team, and finally depending on your ability to determine whether you can stay or not."
Chen Fan asked, "What are the items of the physical fitness test?" ”
Sure enough, people who have not undergone vocational training do not even know this.
"We have a lot less physical tests than other places, only 30 meters and 3,000 meters, and we value the main technical and tactical awareness of the place, and the youth team has increased the ability to play," David said. ”
It turned out that there were only two physical tests, Chen Fan breathed a sigh of relief, thirty meters should be a test of acceleration ability, and three thousand meters is the endurance level.
Thomson nodded on the side and said: "In this regard, Ajax has its own understanding, and Eindhoven has several more physical fitness tests. ”
David said lightly: "Eindhoven? How can their youth training compare to ours! ”
"Don't look at how many superstars they have been playing in the league for the past few years, and how many superstars have they developed for the Netherlands?"
"Also, in terms of the number of wins in the Eredivisie, we are far ahead!"
In the long 110 years of the Eredivisie, Ajax won a total of 29 titles, PSV Eindhoven won 19 times, and in the more expensive Champions League, Ajax won four times, while PSV Eindhoven won only once in 1988.
Therefore, Ajax has always looked down on its strong competitor.
……
Amsterdam in July is hot, 3 p.m. is the hottest time of the day, and there are only a few youth team coaches on the turf, except for Chen Fan and Thomson.
They were here to help test, and to take a casual look at Chen Fan's speed and endurance level.
Ajax general manager Rick van den Berg chose this time period, and indeed intended to test Chen Fan.
Chen Fan didn't think too much about it, he did a serious warm-up on the turf, his speed was good, and he was not only a member of the football team at school, but also a member of the track and field team.
So there is not much pressure on the physical fitness test, all he has to do is to show his best level.
David stood in the shade of a tree chatting with his assistants, observing Chen Fan from time to time, while Thomson stood under another tree, constantly wiping the sweat from his forehead with a tissue.
Ten minutes later, Chen Fan wiped the sweat from his forehead, came to David's side and said, "Mr. David, it's okay." ”
David didn't speak, but gestured to the two assistants, who lazily walked towards the turf.
"Ready...... Run! ”
Chen Fan had just stood up when the password had already been issued.
didn't have time to worry about the coach's difficulties, Chen Fan was slightly stunned, and then ran desperately!
He ran for his life just like he had saved the little girl on PrinsHendrikkade Street yesterday afternoon.
The nickname of the little cheetah did not come for nothing, and the coach standing at the finish line only felt a gust of wind blowing in his face, and surprise appeared on his face.
However, he did not forget his own work, and pressed the stopwatch when Chen Fan just crossed the line.
"How much?"
Thomson rushed over from the shade of the tree despite the heat, he knew that Chen Fan's speed was fast, but to what extent, he didn't know.
Judging from Chen Fan's performance just now, the results should be very good.
The coach looked at the stopwatch, and a shock flashed in his eyes, three seconds seventy-one, how is it possible?
Did you press it fast?
Impossible!
"Three seconds seventy-one!"
The coach didn't hide it.
Thomson's eyes widened, suspecting that he had misheard, and asked, "Three seconds seventy-one?" ”
The coach nodded.
Thomson hugged Chen Fan who came over and said loudly: "Three seconds seventy-one!" You ran three seconds seventy-one! ”
Chen Fan didn't know how good this result was, and said dissatisfiedly: "I gave the order before I could stand firm, I should be faster than this." ”
Thomson exclaimed, "It's okay, do you know how many 30 meters Carlos runs?" ”
"His best time is 3.75 seconds!"
"You're faster than him!"
Carlos is known as the fastest full-back in the world, and Thomson mentioned the Brazilian star yesterday when he saw Chen Fan playing full-back.
"It's not that fast, it's only 0.04 seconds!"
Chen Fan shook his head and said.
I could have been faster.
David, who was standing in the shade of the tree, looked at Thomson's excited appearance and knew that Chen Fan's grades were good.
Although Chen Fan ran without a reference object, based on years of experience, he felt that Chen Fan's speed was indeed good.
How much is it, that Thomson who is going bankrupt is so excited.
"Carl, what's the grade!"
He shouted at the assistant who was timing him.
"Three seconds seventy-one!"
David was stunned for a moment, and the assistant next to him blurted out: "So fast!" ”
In his impression, the average young player's 30-meter score is more than 4 seconds, those who are particularly good are around 3.9 seconds, and very few people can run to 3.8 seconds, which is already rare.
The player's pace is almost at its peak in his youth, and he can only maintain it for the rest of the day, not let it fall.
Chen Fan's achievement is rare in the world, and it is enough to stand out from the crowd!
