Chu Zhongtian stood in front of the head coach and clenched his fists tightly. He didn't care about the eyes of others at all, and he didn't think about whether it was appropriate for him to do this, he just wanted to get a place for himself now, and he was willing to do anything that offended people for this.

"This game is in your plan, boss, are you going to win or lose?"

After hearing Chu Zhongtian's question, Eames grinned and laughed.

"Why are you asking such a question, Chinese boy?"

"Because I hate losing, I want to help the team win, and now we're down by a goal......"

"Hah!" Eames simply laughed out loud, and he interrupted Chu Zhongtian's words. "I'm surprised to hear you say that. When we were on a losing streak in the warm-ups, I thought you liked to lose. ”

These words made Chu Zhongtian's face red. He knew what the head coach was referring to: in the warm-up game, in order to fight with Russell, he completely ignored the team's results and fought alone on the field, but not only did not prove that he was better than Russell, but pulled the whole team as a funeral.

"I'm sorry, boss. I've already reflected on what I've done on the bench and I'm sorry for the trouble I've done......"

This was the first time Chu Zhongtian had apologized to others for the matter between him and Russell.

Eames interrupted him with a wave of his hand: "You should apologize to your teammates, to those who still trusted you during the game, but you failed to live up to their trust." ”

"I'll apologize to them, but now I want to win this game."

'You're just a defensive midfielder, what can you change when you play? Can it help us score? Eames stared at Chu Zhongtian and asked, he didn't seem to care about the game at all.

"I can help the team defend solidly and then give other people more attacking opportunities." Chu Zhongtian replied.

※※※

Emily found Chu Zhongtian standing up, and then walked towards Eames, and then the two of them looked at each other like that, saying something. It's a pity that the distance is too far and the scene is too noisy, and she can't hear anything.

Her attention also shifted from the game itself to the sidelines. It wasn't a good enough game and Wimbledon was lackluster, so there was nothing to look out for.

※※※

"Where do you get your confidence?" Eames looked at the Chinese boy in front of him with interest.

"I've always been very confident defensively."

Eames laughed: "I thought about those nine warm-up games again......"

Chu Zhongtian opened his mouth to explain, but in fact, it was his own ghost and abnormal performance.

Eames didn't give him a chance to explain.

"I've always had a question. I heard that when Emily first came to you for a tryout, you turned her down, and it seemed that you didn't want to play, why did you come? ”

"I didn't want to play before, then I wanted to."

Hearing this answer, Eames smiled and shook his head: "Your answer is too simple, but it doesn't matter. Do you really want to play football now? ”

Chu Zhongtian nodded. He's not lying to be able to play. He really wants to play, he wants the feeling of the game, he wants to win on the football pitch.

Eames was silent for a while, and Chu Zhongtian didn't let go, just standing in front of the head coach.

The people next to him still looked at him strangely, and wondered why the boss, who was not very good-tempered, had not lost his temper and chased him away.

After being silent for a while, Eames raised his head again and said to Chu Zhongtian: "I made a bet with someone, and he doesn't seem to be very optimistic about your future in this team......

When Ingrid, who was sitting next to Eames, heard this, his face changed, and he wanted to stop Eames from talking, but when he thought that if he stopped it by speaking out, wouldn't it be equivalent to admitting that "someone" was him? If you let the players know what kind of prejudice he has against him as a coach, it will not be easy to deal with the relationship...... So I had to hold back the anger in my heart and continue to listen.

"I made a bet with him for a hundred pounds, do you think I'm going to win, Chinese boy?"

Chu Zhongtian was a little stunned, but he quickly regained his composure.

"Yes. Definitely, boss. He nodded in the affirmative.

Eames slapped him on the face: "You go warm up, come to me in five minutes." ”

Chu Zhongtian got the answer he wanted, he quickly turned around, for fear that the head coach would change his mind again, and rushed to the warm-up area under the surprised eyes of everyone.

※※※

Ingrid finally waited for Chu Zhongtian to leave, and then he couldn't wait to ask the teacher: "When did I stop looking at him, Terry?" ”

"Don't you don't believe he's going to be the heart of this team?"

"Not being the core and not being optimistic are two different concepts entirely, Terry?"

"Oops, it's all the same anyway......" Eames suddenly stood up and yelled at Russell, who was still on the bench, "Go warm up!" Russell, how long are you going to sit down? ”

※※※

Seeing Chu Zhongtian rushing over to the head coach and saying a few words, he was allowed to warm up, Russell looked surprised: "Isn't it?" Is that okay too? ”

He was feeling frustrated that he had wasted his chance when he heard the manager suddenly call his name.

"Go warm up! Russell, how long are you going to sit? ”

※※※

Chu Zhongtian was warming up for the leg press and pull, when he saw Russell running over with a happy face.

"What did you say to the boss, Chu?" Russell felt that Chu Zhongtian must have said something that could make the boss change his mind.

"It's nothing, I asked him if he wanted to win or lose."

After hearing Chu Zhongtian's answer, Russell opened his mouth wide, and it took a long time for him to burst out with a sentence: "You are so bold......

Chu Zhongtian asked him again: "Do you want to win or lose?" ”

Russell felt that Chu Zhongtian's question was very stupid: "No one wants to lose. ”

Chu Zhongtian nodded, and then suddenly stretched out his hand to Russell.

"It's ......," Russell didn't figure out.

"Let's work together, I'll protect your rear when you get on the pitch, and you'll be responsible for organising the attack in front. Don't worry about losing the ball, I'll get it back for you. Chu Zhongtian looked at Russell Dao.

Russell did not expect that the Chinese, who had been humiliated and teased by himself before and had a fight with him, would take the initiative to reach out to him. Although he made peace with Chu Zhongtian, he didn't think that he would really hold hands with him.

This hand is up, but it is not just a matter of peace, but cooperation.

It means that the relationship between the two of them will never be the same again.

"Are you serious?" He asked.

"Aren't you going to fit together?" Chu Zhongtian asked rhetorically. "You attack, I defend, we are combined."

Russell remembered the day at the King's Ranch when the two of them were left alone for training.

"Shall I compose the head?" He laughed.

"You're tall, so you'll take advantage of it." Chu Zhongtian didn't care about this title, he just wanted to play now.

Russell waved his hand over and slapped it Chu Zhongtian's palm.

"Deal."

※※※

"Terry, tell me clearly, what's going on?" Ingrid was unrelenting.

"Actually, I had the idea of changing people for a long time...... Why do you think I put the two of them on the bench instead of in the starting lineup? ”

"Huh?" Ingrid was stunned for a moment, then reacted. "Don't change the subject!"

Unexpectedly, Eames looked at his partner with a serious expression: "I'm serious." You really don't see anything? ”

Ingrid also fell silent, pondering Eames' intentions. He then linked the bench to the squad for the previous game. "You're going to teach them a lesson?"

Eames snapped his fingers: "Correct!" If you don't give them some color, they really think that the head coach of my team is a decoration. You see, they're all honest now, right? Knowing that you took the initiative to bow your head to me and admit your mistake, when have you ever seen them do this before? ”

Ingrid shook his head. He only remembered that even if Eames and himself went into battle in person, Chu and Russell still only had each other in their eyes, like two angry bulls.

"Wardy (Wardy's nickname) can play in multiple positions at the back, so it's a bit of a waste to play a regular in one position. And I'm hoping to make him slowly change his role this season, from player to ......coach," Eames said to Ingrid. 'Sidwell doesn't help the team much in attack, he's a midfielder and if I'm going to play a double midfielder I need him, but if I need to attack he's not very useful. Am I too ruthless to say that? Well, but it doesn't matter, Sidwell can't hear it anyway...... Russell and Chu have always been in the same group when they trained, and they had some tacit understanding, and letting them play at the same time was also out of consideration for cultivating their tacit understanding......"

Hearing this, Ingrid laughed: "Ha! I think about those nine consecutive defeats, and there is no tacit understanding between them! ”

"That's because the two of them are completely more stubborn than I could have imagined." Eames wasn't embarrassed.

Speaking of stubbornness, Ingrid nodded in agreement. He had a very deep understanding of the stubbornness of these two people, after those additional punishments. None of them took the initiative to beg for mercy, no matter how difficult the rules of punishment were, and they never complained. Maybe it's because they don't want to make a fool of themselves in front of their "enemies", but if they don't stick to their own grievances with each other, they will never be able to do it.

Ingrid suddenly reacted that he had come to ask the teacher for sin......

"I almost digressed from the topic again! Coming back to my question - I just don't think Chu can be the core of our team, he's a defender who can only defend, and it's impossible for such a player to be the core. I don't think I'm doing anything wrong. ”

Eames he, hey, hey, he

"Don't laugh, you answer my question!"

"You can't look at people with old eyes, Nicky. Didn't you notice that after more than a month of torture, Chinese boys have made progress? ”

Ingrid remembered those "punishments" after training, and it seemed that the further he went, the better Chu's performance became.

'When we went to play the Supporters' Cup away, I gave them homework and coach Breham supervised them. There were two of them that Chu was not good at, but by the time we returned to the King's Ranch, they had already completed their training and returned. Do you know what that means? ”

"He's improved a lot in terms of ball control, so those drills that he didn't do well before can be done in a normal amount of time." Ingrid thought about it for a moment and came up with an answer.

Eames nodded, "That's it. ”

"Well, I'll admit he's better than he was before, but the 'core' isn't something that everyone can do. In fact, Kevin Cooper is at the heart of who we are. ”

Eames pouted: "It seems that it will not be easy to win your hundred pounds......"

was complaining, Chu Zhongtian and Russell had returned to him. Chu Zhongtian was still standing in front of Eames, just blocking his view. He tilted his head, and then pulled Chu Zhongtian aside: "Remember not to stand in front of me in the future." ”

Then he got up from his seat and said to the two young men who were full of expectations: "Actually, your task is very simple, you go up and replace Wodi and be responsible for the midfield defense, and Russell, you replace Sidwell, responsible for organizing the attack. These things are your job, isn't that difficult? ”

"It's not hard, boss." The two men replied in unison.

Eames looked at his watch, fifteen minutes into the second half, thirty minutes to go, and only one goal behind.

He said to Chu Zhongtian: "The last word: the boss wants to win." ”
