After kicking several times, Chu Zhongtian suddenly became interested, and planned to try to volley directly without stopping the ball - this is a difficult shooting action for professional players. So he used his chest to unload the power of the incoming ball, and then took a volley with his feet, and as expected, the ball was five or six meters off and flew straight down the alley.

He ran over to pick up the ball, only to see that the ball had fallen at the feet of another person.

"Boss?" When Chu Zhongtian saw who this person was, he was a little surprised.

And when Eames saw who was practicing here, his first reaction was surprise...... But he didn't show it.

"Now you just want to shoot straight at the goal without stopping? It's a little early. Eames picked up the ball on his toes and flipped back and forth with his left and right feet. Then he passed the ball to Chu Zhongtian.

Chu Zhongtian raised his foot to unload the football, and the action of stopping the ball was very standardized, after all, he had received professional training for ten years before coming here to play...... "I just want to try, hehe." Chu Zhongtian laughed a little embarrassedly.

"Why don't you go back?" Eames asked.

Chu Zhongtian asked rhetorically: "Didn't you go back too, boss?" ”

"I'm not done yet. Do you think seventy-five pounds a week is a good money? Even if it's just a part-time ......," Eames pointed to the cramped office behind him. "And the team's training is over, boy."

Chu Zhongtian shook his head: "The team's training is over, but mine is not yet, boss." ”

He stole the phrase Eames had said before: "Russell's season is over, but ours isn't".

Eames laughed, the kid was funny.

"What are you practicing? Shots? He walked over and looked at the white lines on the wall that had been cut out of stones, about the size of a goal.

"Hmm."

"Why are you thinking about practicing your shots?"

'I want to be able to contribute more to the team.' Chu Zhongtian replied honestly.

"Aren't you contributing enough? The heart of our defence? Eames asked with a smile.

"Defending only keeps the team from losing, but I want to win."

Hearing this, Eames frowned slightly and remained silent. Chu Zhongtian thought that his words made the boss angry, he remembered that the boss used to play as a guard, would he offend the boss who was born as a guard? He didn't dare to make a sound, but he kept pulling the football to the left, right, forward and backward, his body tossing and turning in a small area, and the soles of his shoes, the football and the concrete floor kept rubbing against each other, making a rustling sound.

There was silence between the two men for a long time before Eames suddenly asked, "What are you doing here?" ”

"Huh?" Chu Zhongtian didn't understand what the boss was referring to.

"This." Eames asked, pointing to his right foot, which was pulling the soccer ball back and forth, left and right.

"Uh...... It's Russell taught me how to practice ball control, and I practice it when I'm fine, and now it's a habit. ”

Chu Zhongtian didn't lie, even when he was working as a bartender in a bar, he kept plucking the football under his feet to practice.

Eames nodded: "I said how come you are making such rapid progress in terms of technology." It turns out that there are the best technical people in our team to be your coach, ha! It's a good habit, keep it up. He reached out and patted Chu Zhongtian on the shoulder, then turned around and walked towards his office.

He didn't give Chu Zhongtian any special guidance, nor did he tell him what the tricks and secrets of shooting were. The shooting techniques are those, and they are all talked about in training, a person who can shoot and a person who can't shoot, the difference is only in the skillful use of these techniques, and if you want to use them skillfully, you need to rely on a lot of targeted repetitive practice. Talent may be important, but it definitely can't overweigh a lot of hard, serious and correct training...... There's nothing to teach in this area, just practice. Anyway, this Chinese kid has toughness, patience, and willingness to practice, so let's practice. At most, I will let Kevin in my usual training. Cooper or Joe. Shirin took care of him.

Seeing Boss Eames walk back to the office, Chu Zhongtian returned to the parking lot and began to train again.

The sound of "bang bang bang" sounded again. Every time it rang, Rydecoims, sitting in his office, felt like the sound was ringing in his heart.

But I want to win.

This sentence is really nostalgic............ The locker room doors at Wembley Stadium were closed, and the pitch was already boiling over, and the noise was clearly audible through the cracks in the door.

Terry. Eames sat on the bench in the dressing room and will be a substitute in this important final. No way, who made him thirty-four? At this age, he was almost at the end of his career, and he decided to retire at the end of the season.

Reaching the FA Cup final was probably the best farewell performance, but the thought of their opponents being the invincible Liverpool made him a little dismayed. It looked like his final race at Wimbledon was going to end in defeat...... He's old, old enough to forget why his team is called the "Crazy Gang".

It's not just because they're brutal and ferocious.

Legendary coach Dave Brown, who single-handedly took Wimbledon from the fourth tier to the top flight in just four years, achieved the triple jump. Bassett (dave_bassett) put it this way: the spirit of madness is a "never-say-die attitude".

And it is this attitude that makes them dare to challenge their opponents who are far stronger than themselves, and repeatedly create miracles.

The brutal and direct kick is just one manifestation of this attitude, and what is on the outside is always the most noticeable, often forgetting the core essence of the surface.

In their first season in the English top flight, the underdogs, who were considered favourites to be the favourites, finished sixth in the league, beating Liverpool twice and Manchester United...... These classic games are thirty-four-year-old Terry. Eames had forgotten, even though those had only happened a year ago.

But some people haven't forgotten.

At this time "he" stood up.

The man was not wearing the captain's armband, and it was not the team's captain at the time, goalkeeper Bisant, but the fierce and vicious Pooh. Jones.

"I have a few words to say to you before I go out to race." He tilted his mouth and pointed at his teammates, looking unstoppable.

Jones has always been like that in the dressing room, and although he is not yet the captain, he has long been the boss of all the players. Today he even stole the manager's role - the job of encouraging the players before the game is usually done by the manager.

"The shit out there says Liverpool will never fail, but they're a bit of a problem with their brains." Jones poked his temple, his eyes widened, and said viciously. "They forgot that just one season ago, we beat those sissies twice!"

In the 86-87 season, Wimbledon had just been promoted to the top flight, and everyone thought they would be relegated. But this season, they have beaten Liverpool twice, once at their own home stadium at Prau Lane, and they have shown Liverpool what "hell" is. When the game was over, the Liverpool players almost ran into the lounge crying, saying "The fans at Wimbledon are horrible, this stadium is hell!" ”

The second meeting between the two teams this season was at Anfield, a stadium sacred to Liverpool fans. Jones led his team-mates to spit on the 'This is Anfield' sign before the winner of the winning goal in Anfield's win over Liverpool was Alan Brown. Cork.

Eames was on the pitch in both games and unlike today, he experienced those moments firsthand. Now Jones's words made his memory clear, and he remembered how wonderful it was to defeat an invincible enemy!

"Now I admit that this FA Cup final is probably going to make the old guys a little bit more serious and they have a lot more fans than we do. From the first two weeks of the game, everyone was saying 'Liverpool will win', 'Wimbledon is vulnerable to a serious Liverpool', 'Liverpool is the champion, glory to the Reds'...... If you want me to say it's all fart! I'm tired of hearing that! ”

Jones himself has a fierce face and a bad temper, and swear words are just his mantra, and the way he looks now makes him look even more hideous.

"I'll admit damn Liverpool are better than us, but I fucking want to win!!" The way he gritted his teeth, Eames still remembers.

"Is there anyone who doesn't want to win?" He asked.

No one said anything, everyone just looked up at him.

So Pooh. A smile appeared on Jones's villain's face, not a heart-warming smile, but a grin that made people feel fear and disgust, but the frenzied people liked it.

"It looks like everybody wants to win. Then you guys listen, let's go out in a while, let's give those old men with their nostrils open to the sky a little bit first! ”

And then Pooh. Jones led a group of maniacs, in the passage waiting for entry, and roared at the Liverpool players standing next to them for a full three minutes. The Liverpool players didn't expect this to happen while waiting for the entry, they had never seen this situation in their football careers, and they were all stunned and overwhelmed. And there are people who are Pooh. Jones's crazy look was stunned—they thought the madman was really going to kill him.

If anyone can't understand the feelings of these poor Liverpool players, go check out the guys. Richie's two films. In "Lock" (stock_and_two_smoking_barrels) and "Snatch," Pooh Brown. Jones plays the roles of thugs and killers, and he definitely plays them in his true colors...... The rest of the story is known throughout England.

Pooh. Jones stretchered Liverpool striker McMahon on a stretcher in the opening minute of the final, and this foul set the tone for this final - Liverpool gentlemen, your opponents are the madmen, please watch your feet and watch out for the championship trophy you booked!

In the final, the Wild Gang played a jaw-dropping game, and they completely dominated Liverpool with fierce pressing and crazy running. When Sanchez picks up Dennis. When Wise's free-kick header scored to help Wimbledon lead Liverpool 1-0, only the cheers of the crazy fans in the entire Wembley Stadium were silenced, and more than half of the Liverpool fans were silent, which even made the cheers of the Wimbledon fans seem a little thin, but who cares?

And when Dave. When Bassett saved Liverpool star Aldridge's penalty, their victory looked already irreversible.

In the end, the pre-game underdog Wimbledon defeated Liverpool, who had been dubbed "the whole world thought they were going to win", and took home the highest honour in the club's history, the FA Cup – the crowning honour of English football before the Premier League even existed, and far more significant than the League One title.

In that game, Eames sat on the bench off the field from start to finish, but he didn't lose that excitement at all. It was the last game of his career, and even if he sat down on the sidelines, he was thrilled and proud to be part of that "mad gang", and it was an honor for him to be able to fight alongside that group of crazy teammates who "never say die".

…… Eames, who had come back from his memories, heard the sound of "bang bang" again, and he packed up his things on the table and prepared to leave.

In the night, the street lamp in the corner of the parking lot was the only light source in that place, and Chu Zhongtian continued to train shooting in the dark. Eames was a little skeptical that he would be able to know where he was hitting every shot in such a dark situation.

He frowned and shouted loudly, "Chu! ”

Chu Zhongtian had just stopped the ball and was about to shoot again, when he heard the boss's shout, he quickly stopped and turned his head to look over.

"Stop practicing, football isn't the more time you spend the better, now can you see the position and range of the goal on the opposite wall?" Eames asked, pointing to the wall.

"I feel it, boss."

Eames laughed out loud, which he thought was ridiculous.

"You don't have the basics, it's just your feelings. Let's go home...... I remember you still have to work, right? ”

Chu Zhongtian nodded: "I've asked Boss John for leave, I'll go back at eight o'clock." ”

Eames looked at the watch on his wrist, it was just seven o'clock.

"Almost, you still have to eat dinner, you have to take a shower and change clothes, right? Let's go back. Eames waved at him, "Training is also about methods, and you can't figure it out by yourself." If you really want to practice, come here an hour early every time you train in the future, and I'll find someone to take you to practice. ”

Hearing the head coach say this, Chu Zhongtian became happy, he picked up the football and asked, "Really?" ”

"Can I still joke with you?" Eames actually had this idea for a long time, and every time they needed a long-range shot in the middle, such an idea would pop up in his mind - to increase the practice of shooting for Chu Zhongtian and train him. It's just that the team only has two days of joint practice time a week, and because he has to go to school, Chu Zhongtian still can't come to participate every time, and he has no chance to implement this idea. The Easter holidays may be an opportunity.

He was going to get Kevin. Cooper came to guide Chu Zhongtian to practice shooting, and when it comes to foot skills, Russell is the first in the team. When it comes to shooting skills, Kevin. Cooper is definitely the No.1 in the team, and no one can surpass him in this team today. That's why Kevin. Cooper was the team's top scorer, while Joe. The reason Schilling was only the second leading scorer was Joe in terms of shooting. Schilling is slightly inferior.

"In the future, you will come an hour early for every training session, and I will wait for you here. Now go back. ”

This time Chu Zhongtian did not disobey his orders again, he picked up the football, said goodbye to Eames, and ran away happily.

Looking at his back, Eames grinned and laughed.

What an interesting Chinese boy.

You don't want to lose, and I don't want to lose, boy.

※※※On the afternoon of the second team practice, Chu Zhongtian set off from the Dons Bar early and ran to the King's Ranch east of Kingston.

Then there he saw the early arrival of head coach Eames and captain Kevin. Cooper!

It was then that he realized that the person Eames had hired to teach him was the team's captain, the top scorer, and Kevin, who is currently ranked second in the mixed county league scorer list. Cooper, nicknamed Coopers.

This was a pleasant surprise to him, he had thought that a Shirin would do.

"I heard from the boss that you want to do shooting practice?" Kevin. Cooper asked Chu Zhongtian.

He was also a little surprised when he saw this Chinese boy. When Coach Eames said he would bring in the young players, he thought it was Bolger. Because Bolger has scored in these games, he thinks that the manager wants to strengthen Bolger's shooting skills and try to score more goals in the game. I will always be taken care of by the opponent in the field now, and it is a good idea to use Borger as a point to win...... Just a moment to see Chu Zhongtian, who turned out to be one of the few players in the team who couldn't shoot at goal...... "Well, I hope to be able to help the team more in attack." Chu Zhongtian nodded. Every time I see us in the back and we can't score, I think if I can use a long-range shot from the middle to force the opposition to push the defence out a little bit and create more space for the strikers in the box. ”

After hearing Chu Zhongtian's words, Cooper looked at Eames, who also nodded, obviously agreeing with Chu Zhongtian's statement.

Long-range shots are a great way to break down dense defences, not only to score goals themselves, but also to put psychological pressure on the opposition defence, forcing them to relax their guard on the strikers in the box.

Chu Zhongtian was right.

Cooper looked back at Chu Zhongtian.

"I'm not good at long-range shots, but the technique is the same, and the people who are good at long-range shots are just a little bit more powerful, and you don't have a problem with power. After the warm-up, let's get started. ”

Cooper pointed to the goal in front of him, and outside the penalty area, close to the penalty arc, a total of ten balls were lined up.
