Chapter 15: The New Season Begins (Cheers for Women's Football, Plus Chapter)
The World Cup final did not change because of the arrival of his butterfly, Zidane topped Materazzi and Italy won the title. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info
Riding a motorcycle, full of joy, Reeves officially embarked on the journey home, ignoring the charming and picturesque scenery along the way, ignoring the occasional whistle from the drag racers beside him, and only the hope for the new season and the hope for the future in his heart.
My father had already secured a loan from the family fund and started to contact the city of Parma, and if all went well, Parma had a new owner before the winter transfer window.
After the World Cup, Reeves and Sigrid spent some time in Germany to enjoy their time together, with Sigrid flying back to France to prepare for the start of the new semester, while Reeves drove his motorcycle to the training base to meet the team.
It was a successful and beautiful journey, Reeves thought so, completely walked out of the shadow of his previous life, let go of many shackles, learned to cherish the beauty of this life, and pursued the good life that belonged to him.
If Reeves before coming to Germany will grow into first-line stars such as Anelka and Romario at most, then Reeves after leaving Germany already has the possibility of becoming Henry and Ronaldo.
Back in France, his footballing life will face a new beginning.
――――――――――――――――――――
With the sun shining gently on the wet lawn, Reeves began the new season with the Lille first team.
In the morning, the main exercise is 8v5 in the range of 20m ×30m, which is a training program designed by the Clairefontaine football base in France, which can complete the best training effect with the least physical strength, and is one of the main training programs of the French team before the season. The defender can counterattack nearby, while the attacker's 8-man group needs to pass more than 8 times in a row to attack the goal, and can only attack the goal on the opposite side. The defender can calmly observe the passing of the attacking player and make the right judgment, so as to cultivate defensive awareness and reduce blind scramble.
The offense and defense on the field are lively, and the eyes of Puel, the best coach of last season, are only on Reeves.
If Lille's Champions League finish in Ligue 1 in 04/05 was just a surprise, then in 05/06 they finished in the top three again and entered the Champions League, which made all doubts disappear, and Lille are already the undisputed Ligue 1 powerhouse. They beat Ligue 1 hegemons Lyon 3-1 away and 4-0 at home twice last season, and deserved the title of "Lyon's nemesis". At the same time, France Football also awarded the Academy of the Year to the Lille Academy.
There are plenty of reasons for an increasingly strong northern side to be optimistic about the future, and it's time to pull Lyon down. At present, the team has a balanced three lines, the front court Oldumwinge, Keita, Debich Trident is in peak form, the midfield Bodmeier, Ja Macon, Dumont, Cabaye are balanced in attack and defense, and the backfield Tavlaritis, Tafrau, Bastos, Lichsteiner, Pristan, Schmitz, Vitakic and other talents are full of talent. Add to that the Reeves, who can do wonders, and it's a summer of hope.
However, Reeves still needs to be sculpted, and the first thing to solve is the coordination problem. On the court, Reeves prefers to complete the offense alone and rarely cooperates with his teammates.
Puel's eyes returned to the field, Reeves, who was born in Clay Fontaine, performed like a fish in water in the 8v5 confrontation practice in the range of 20m ×30m, both in terms of passing skills and passing timing were perfect, but he still couldn't suppress his nature, and occasionally showed signs of fighting alone.
Believe it or not, on the field, Reeves, who had just been in the rules for a long time, played up, dashing past three defenders in a row, the movements were gorgeous and smooth, pleasing to the eye, and continued to rush to goalkeeper Silva without stopping, and wanted to pass the last line of defense, but the experienced Silva poked the ball out of the bottom line.
Puel slapped his forehead angrily, this guy who loves to appear.
Fortunately, Reeves is a well-established Lillere and everyone is very tolerant of him, and improvisation like this is only encouraged in France, and no veteran player will stand up and express his authority.
Goalkeeper Silva got up from the ground, patted Reeves' head, and said with a smile: "Little Reeves, my goal is not so easy to miss." ”
Reeves also said with a smile: "It's just that my feet are slipping, and I can't say for sure next time!" ”
At this time, the three guards who had just been passed by Reeves also surrounded and joked.
Puel looked at the chatty and laughing Reeves with a little surprise, and was pleasantly surprised: "It's only been a summer, how can you become cheerful." Is it not easy to have an affair in Germany? 'Either way, it's a good change, because there used to be a smile on the faces of a handful of young players who came out of the Lille Academy, such as the young players in the squad, who are now very well with the whole team.
"Beep ......" Assistant Teacher Korot blew the whistle for the assembly.
Seeing that the players were all gathered together, Puel commented on the performance of everyone in the practice match, and ordered: "Here is a team of six, do the practice of getting rid of the passing and receiving the ball, Reeves, you come with me." ”
Reeves looked left and right, made sure that the coach called him, and followed the coach to the sideline nervously.
Puel patted Reeves on the shoulder and said kindly, "Hey, young man, don't be nervous, just talk about your heart." ”
Reeves rubbed his hair and smiled, "Well, I'll listen." Only then did he look at the familiar and unfamiliar man in front of him, familiar means that as a pure Lilleaure, of course, he is very familiar with one of the best coaches in Lille's history, since he took charge of Lille in 2002, he has led this sinking northern former powerhouse on the road to revival, this is a coach who is good at discovering new stars. Speaking of strangeness, Reeves has only played one game under him, and he has not had much contact. However, I heard from the seniors that the coach has a good temper and is very humorous.
While Reeves looked at Puel, Puel was also observing the most talented teenager in the history of Lille and even France. Young, handsome, confident, modest, this is visible at a glance, it is good to be young.
"Do you know your shortcomings?" Puel asked in a slightly teasing tone.
Reeves whispered embarrassedly, "My mother said I was so handsome, and the opponent couldn't help but disfigure me." ”
Puer's expression was extremely rich, he wanted to laugh but pretended to be serious, and continued with a forced smile: "What else? ”
Reeves pretended not to see it and looked down at his toes, "My dad said I was so good at the ball that opponents couldn't help but hail me on the legs." ”
Puel couldn't hold it anymore, and instead of looking at Reeves's pretended childlike image, he snorted deliberately.
Reeves replied seriously: "I'm a bit alone on the court, I will change this point slowly, and the communication is not enough, mainly because I am not very familiar with my teammates and seniors, I will slowly adapt to it." ”
Puel rubbed Reeves' shaggy black hair and smiled: "It's good that you know it in your heart, if you correct these two points, you will have a lot of opportunities in the new season." ”
Puel is also helpless in his heart, now the team's number one striker Oldumwinji was originally just a substitute, last season to seize the original number one striker Musilu, the opportunity of bad state, scored goals again and again, became the team's top scorer, after sending Musilu to Nice in the summer, Oldumwenji's agent Xu saw the team's reliance on him, and began to open his mouth to ask for a salary increase, although it is common to perform well and raise salaries, but the psychological price gap between the two sides is too large, and Oldumwinji himself has also been affected, I've been a little absent-minded in recent training.
Puel is a little worried about Oldumwenge's form in the new season, but the team's summer recruitment has ended, and he can only look at the rest of the team, Milares, Odd, and Fowegay are all useless substitutes in the front, only Reeves can be used, and he has decided to give more opportunities to this hard-working young man. Another point is that the chairman talked to him, and he vaguely mentioned that this young man will leave Lille next year to play, give him more opportunities this season, and sell him for a good price next summer. Although it was a pity, he knew that Lille and even Ligue 1 could not retain such a talented teenager, but he didn't expect to have plans to go abroad so early.
"Really? That's great! "With the news that there are plenty of opportunities for the new season, Reeves clenched his fists and was excited.
Throughout the Lille summer in late July, a young and handsome figure caught all eyes on the club's training ground, and Reeves' energetic and enthusiastic voice could be heard throughout the stadium.
-------------
As August approached, the summer break was finally over, and in the summer, Lille played five warm-up games, with three wins and two defeats, and Reeves came off the bench in the second half, performing well but not amazingly, less alone, more cooperation, and a total of three goals.
On the last day of July, France Football listed the 50 most noteworthy figures in Ligue 1 for the new season, with Coope, the current Ligue 1 appearance record holder, Marseille Francois Francois and Lyon Juninho in second and third place, and Reeves in 17th.
