After this FA Cup match with Birmingham, Zhang Xu's strength was recognized by manager Wilson, and he gradually became the main team in the first team. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

At the same time, his spirit of not admitting defeat and fighting to the end has also been admired and recognized by his teammates, and Zhang Xu has also completely integrated into the big family of the team.

Zhang Xu likes this title more, because he usually occasionally plays the online game World of Warcraft, and he still likes this game, especially the orc race.

On the one hand, because the orcs are wild and full of explosive power, on the other hand, Warcraft is a game that pays attention to team combat, and the same is true of football, one person can't make a team, but a team can make a person!

After the FA Cup match, Zhang Xu's nickname of "Warcraft Zhang" spread out, and it was known to the whole club, and even head coach Wilson teased him with this nickname during training breaks.

What's worse is that this nickname is also known by Blade fans, and the title of "Warcraft Zhang" has been uploaded on the Blade fan forum website for a while, and almost every Blade fan knows that the Chinese Zhang in their team has now become "Warcraft Zhang"!

What made Zhang Xu speechless the most was that when he and Nicola were walking in Sheffield, an aunt shopping in a supermarket came up to them, and they actually recognized him at a glance and shouted affectionately, "Wow, you are 'Warcraft Zhang'!" Makes Nicola burst out laughing.

Anyway, at least Zhang Xu has been accepted by Sheffield United and Blade fans, and he has become a real Blade!

Sheffield United were supposed to play Gilchet away in the 29th round of the First Division seven days after this game, but it had to be postponed due to the national competition.

As a result, the most recent official game will have to wait until February 11, which is the thirtieth round of the league, Sheffield United host Wycombe.

Without a game for nearly half a month, it was a rare break for the Sheffield United players, who were exhausted in the FA Cup, to recover as much as possible for the more intensive fixtures to come.

However, Zhang Xuke is not happy, first, his physical fitness is fine, and one night is enough to recover seventy-seven, eighty-eight, and second, since the game with Birmingham, he deeply feels the lack of his ability, and wants to improve his ability and water quality faster. And the competition has helped him too much, he urgently needs a lot of games, with the help of the system, to improve himself quickly.

However, this time he had to wait for half a month, but he was in a hurry, and he could only devote himself to crazy training.

Zhang Xu's training can indeed only be described by the word "crazy", not to mention that the daily training volume is twice as high as other training volumes, and the training time is nearly 4 hours longer than that of ordinary players!

At the same time, in order to improve the effect of training, Zhang Xu spent a certain amount of valuable experience and used the current stimulation training mode.

As for the more expensive stars to substitute for the coaching and training mode, Zhang Xu is reluctant, maybe he will not consider it until the experience points are too much to spend.

Even so, the cost of 1 experience point per hour still made Zhang Xu very distressed, especially when he used this training and coaching mode for the first time.

But since he turned it on once, he thinks it's worth the money!

The reason is simple!

As long as there is the slightest irregularity or incorrectness in his movements, a trace of electricity will burst out of his body, giving him a fierce stimulation.

The irritation of this current is too strong, and it can make Zhang Xu tremble all at once. At first, he was really a little unaccustomed to it, and before he could do anything, he was already electrocuted.

Later, he got used to it, and after thousands of electric shock stimulation, Zhang Xu was used to electric shock stimulation, and he was no longer so afraid psychologically.

At the same time, with the help of electric shock stimulation counseling training, his small movements were gradually corrected, and by the end, the number of electric shocks he received every day had dropped to less than 100 times.

Although it is a dozen points of experience consumption every day, there are attribute points rewarded for the effect of training almost every day, and there is no change in a day or two, but after a long time, it accumulates over time, and it is more considerable.

Of course, there was a major event that happened during this period, which had nothing to do with Zhang Xu, but it made Zhang Xu have an endless yearning in his heart.

This is the annual European Golden Globe Awards ceremony.

Founded in 1946, France Football has become an authoritative professional magazine in world football with its rigor, fairness and fun. In 1995, France Football also expanded its Ballon d'Or selection to include players from other continents who played in Europe.

The historical heritage and rigorous operating philosophy make the Ballon d'Or the best tool to measure the value of players in European football, and it has become a coveted honor for all players. France Football strives for the impartiality and authority of the Ballon d'Or, and in terms of judators, they select authoritative football journalists from the most authoritative sports media in 52 European countries to score the best players of the year. The 50 candidates were carefully selected by the editorial board of France Football. In the selection, the score is not completely based on the performance of the national team, but the overall performance of the player's individual year.

This year's European Ballon d'Or was won by Messi, who plays for Barcelona, and this is the third consecutive year he has won the European Ballon d'Or.

Sitting on the sofa and watching Messi holding the glittering Golden Ball trophy on TV, Zhang Xu had a yearning for the European Golden Ball Award for the first time.

One day, I will stand on that podium and lift the much-anticipated Golden Ball! This was the strong desire that rose in Zhang Xu's heart at that moment.

With such lofty ideals, Zhang Xu's motivation for training is more sufficient.

In order to be able to stand on that podium one day, he once again increased the amount of training and extended the training time.

As long as the body can still bear it, as long as the physical fitness coach or team doctor does not stop, then continue to practice and practice to the death.

The daily training time is all the time except sleeping, in fact, even when sleeping, he is still training hard with the help of the system.

This is his life, simple and boring, but this is a true portrayal of a dream-chasing boy working hard for his ideals.

On February 11, 2012, Zhang Xu's long-awaited competition finally arrived.

It was a home game against Wycombe, who are a weak team and have had a miserable season. So far, they have played 29 league games, with seven wins, five draws and 17 defeats to accumulate 26 points, and are already on the verge of the relegation zone.

Sheffield United, on the other hand, has 16 wins, 5 draws and 6 losses with 53 points and is currently ranked fourth.

Facing such a weak team and playing at home, Sheffield United will not let go of such a good opportunity to grab points.

As a result, head coach Wilson sent all the team's main players to the game, and Zhang Xu once again appeared on Bramall Lane as a starter.

In fact, before this game, Zhang Xu had gained enough experience points after nearly half a month of hard work, and it was more than enough to upgrade, but Zhang Xu considered that his opponents were weak, so he was not in a hurry to upgrade.

He plans to level up during key matches, and then allocate important free stat points to the stat points that are most needed in key matches.

Even if he didn't choose to upgrade, in the past half a month, the system still gave him more than a dozen attribute points, which made his strength greatly improved again. That's the main reason why Wilson has scheduled him to start again.

At the beginning of the game, Sheffield United took the initiative in the game, and Zhang Xu's defensive pressure was not great, so while he did his job, he also intervened from time to time to participate in the attack on Wycombe.

In the eleventh minute, the opponent made a long pass, intending to pass to his striker, but Zhang Xu stopped the ball with an accurate position and a jumping chest, and easily stopped the football and then gave it to Williamson.

Williams immediately pushed forward with the football, and after encountering the pressure of the opponent's midfielder, he passed the football back to Zhang Xu, who waved for the ball.

This is not the first time Zhang Xu has waved for the ball, since the game against Birmingham, he has been involved in the team's defensive organization in an interesting way, and occasionally makes a cameo role in the attacking organization.

In addition to running and passing, sometimes you have to ask your teammates for the ball, whether it's waving or shouting, it's a way to ask for the ball.

When Zhang Xu was training, he gradually increased the number of times he asked for the ball.

Since everyone has recognized Zhang Xu's strength and accepted him emotionally, when Zhang Xu asked for the ball, there was no psychological obstacle for his teammates.

After Zhang Xu received the football, he used his speed to shake the midfield of Wei Combi, who was about to grab back, and then directly entered the opponent's half.

Zhang Xu's dribbling skills have improved rapidly, and he currently has nearly 40 attribute values, so there is no difficulty in dribbling, and it is not a particularly difficult thing for him.

However, soon, the opponent's back came up, and Zhang Xu's dribbling action was automatically terminated, and he had to push the ball to Michael who received it on the right.

Michael teamed up with forwards Evans and Williamson to shake off the defense of three Wycombe players in quick succession. Pushing to the inside edge of the box on the right side, he spotted his chance and fired a cold shot.

Football hits the net! Sheffield United are up 1-0!

With a goal, Sheffield United played more comfortably.

In the 23rd minute of the game, Evans was in the penalty area, received a cross from Cresswell, and headed the ball into the net.

Sheffield United 2:0 Wycombe!

After the rematch in the second half, Wycombe still didn't see much change.

This time, Zhang Xu once again showed his violent long-range shot.

In the 65th minute of the game, Michael and Evans staggered left and right on the edge of Wycombe's penalty area, but they couldn't break through Wycombe's defense.

A through ball was blocked by the opponent with his legs, and the football rolled to the edge of the penalty area, and Zhang Xu just happened to arrive with a horse.

Seeing such an opportunity, Zhang Xu didn't even think about it, directly picked up his thick thighs and slapped them the football.

The ball turned into a bolt of lightning and instantly passed through the defence of several Wycombe defenders and hung into the far corner of the goal.

Wycombe's goalkeeper could do nothing about the powerful and awkwardly angled shot, and could only watch as the ball flew into the net.

The ball is in!

Zhang Xu scored the first goal of the league!

Sheffield United also relied on this goal to win the opponent with a score of 3:0!
