Chapter 623: The Former Tsar (2)
Russia is once a football powerhouse, and the most important thing is that Russia's youth training is still very strong, and the foundation of youth training lies in the love of Russians for football. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info
But on the other hand, a high-latitude country like Russia is not suitable for football, which is what Li Weifeng has always been curious about.
When you enter the oval indoor soccer field, you can only see young players practicing, and it turns out that in the summer, the indoor court here can be opened to the roof.
Training is the simplest basic training, passing and receiving training, Li Weifeng suddenly remembered that when he was a child, he also started training like this.
"I told them to stop," Mr. Arshavin said.
"No, don't bother them, I just want to take a look, can I take a picture?"
"Of course."
Li Weifeng took some photos, including this beautiful indoor court, "Is there a lot of investment here?" ”
Li Weifeng knows that Arshavin should not be bad for money, but after all, the player's career is only a few years, don't look at the high annual salary, but in general, he is not so rich.
"It's okay, you know, in Russia, which is vast and sparsely populated, land prices will not be as expensive as in China."
"Hahaha, that's right."
At this moment, there was a noise not far away, and I saw a coach scolding the young player.
"Yuri, what's the matter with you, how many times have I said it, pass the ball to a straight line, a straight line, do you know what a straight line is?"
Arshavin walked over with Li Weifeng and Yang Chen, and Arshavin asked, "What's wrong?" ”
"Nothing, boss, passing problems."
Regarding football, there is no need for words, Li Weifeng understands that when the kid passed the ball just now, he was looking at people, not passing it to the running line.
For example, if you're going to hit a moving target, you have to add a little bit of lead, and if you're aiming at the object itself, that's 100% no.
That's why in a lot of low-level games, the pass goes to the back of the running player's butt.
The best way to solve this problem is to make sure that the passing line and the running line are in a straight line, or parallel line, when passing the ball, so that the running player does not need to slow down to get the ball.
It's very simple, but this is the basic skills, and the basic skills need to be practiced from an early age, Li Weifeng feels that the basic skills of the children here are already good compared with China, but the coach is still so serious.
The kid was about to cry, but instead of comforting him, Arshavin touched his head, "The coach is right, you'll know later." ”
Li Weifeng recorded this scene with his mobile phone, "Your training here is too strict. ”
"Yes, we have to be responsible for every penny that their parents put in, and they came here to be stars."
"Yes," Li Weifeng was a little embarrassed, he felt that he should not be suitable for being a youth coach, and he would be soft-hearted.
Passing and receiving the ball is very boring, and there is nothing to see, Arshavin proposed to go to the restaurant to eat something, Li Weifeng nodded, the visit here is indeed so much to see.
The restaurant is a low-rise building with a dark red exterior and a glass curtain wall, from which you can directly see the situation on the training ground, presumably to facilitate the coach to monitor the situation on the training ground when he drinks afternoon tea.
Li Weifeng, Arshavin, and Yang Chen were leaning against the glass curtain wall, and when they saw the boss coming, the staff of the restaurant immediately came over.
"What to drink, there's no menu here, but the usual Western food is available."
Just finished drinking coffee, in fact, the two of them didn't need anything, Yang Chen said, "Two glasses of water." ”
"Then I'll have a glass of water," Arshavin said.
Li Weifeng asked: "Have you ever thought about opening a football school in China, and we can partner together?" ”
Arshavin smiled slightly, "I'm not a career-minded person, and I don't want to make the business so big and too tired." ”
Li Weifeng also smiled, "That's the same." ”
In fact, when they came in just now, the two found that the decoration on the walls of the restaurant was all posters of the boss, both from the national team and the club.
Of course, the most conspicuous thing is the poster of Arshavin when he was at Arsenal, Yang Chen pointed to the poster on the wall, "That is when you are most proud." ”
Arshavin turned his head to look, "You can't say that. ”
"Why? Isn't joining Arsenal satisfying? ”
Arshavin shook his head, "Actually, my favorite is Bayern Munich. ”
Both of them have heard of this, when Arshavin recommended himself several times after the 2008 European Cup became popular, wanting to go to Bayern Munich, or even reduce his salary, but Bayern was not interested in him at all.
Li Weifeng slapped the table, "People are more angry than people, if I can join Arsenal, I must be crazy." ”
"Haha," Arshavin laughed, "this is life, you envy my life, I envy other people's." ”
"The next question, which can be difficult to answer, was the most memorable fight of your career?"
Arshavin said: "It's not a difficult question for me, because in the quarter-final of Euro 2008 against the Netherlands, I scored a goal in extra time to help Russia qualify. ”
The two thought about it for a while, it was indeed a very classic game, and it was also a game in which Arshavin became a god.
"It's been 10 years,"
"yes, time flies," Arshavin said.
Yang Chen thought of a question, "Will you consider being the head coach of Russia in the future?" ”
Arshavin was stunned, this issue has been discussed in the Russian media, but he himself has not thought about it, it is very simple, he still feels too much pressure, he is too tender, "Not for the time being, I may go to Germany to study." ”
"Really? That's great, Yang Chen is also studying coaching courses in Germany, you two can be together. ”
"I have no opinion," Mr. Yang said.
After chatting all morning, the two found that Arshavin was different from other Russians, probably because of the baby face, which seemed approachable and gave people a sense of intimacy.
"Stay for lunch, I can introduce you to the staff here."
The two glanced at each other, "Don't bother, we still have something, let's make an appointment later, we'll invite you." ”
Arshavin spread his hands, "Okay, I'm not reluctant, and you said about partnering to open a football school, I thought about it." ”
"What? Changed your mind? ”
"Yes, I was thinking, if one day I can't open a football school in Russia, then maybe going to China would be a good choice."
As soon as these words came out, the three of them laughed.
