Chapter 4: Legendary Jerseys
"Hao, you should know that this is a training ground, a public place, that kind of incident shouldn't happen here, you are a little indulgent, that will not be good for your future career, do you understand?" In the office, Wenger admonished Xiang Hao in a gentle voice.
The biggest news in Arsenal's training session on Monday was a couple kissing on the training ground. Although training hadn't started at that time, after all, the Arsenal players came one after another and saw that scene. If they were somewhere else, the players might not have cared, but this was a scene that had never happened before at the Kearney training ground, so they naturally stood there and watched the excitement. In the end, Arsene Wenger had to come over in person to get the hormonal overcrowd back on track. Xiang Hao was naturally brought here to be punished.
"I know, boss, I assure you." Seeing that Wenger didn't mean to be angry, Xiang Hao's originally uneasy heart was also put down, without any rebuttal, and quickly nodded honestly.
In fact, Xiang Hao regretted it the moment he put his mouth down, knowing that he had beaten Meng Lang a little bit with this kiss, but he couldn't stand the sweet mouth of the K girl, and it was greasy, so he couldn't stop it, so he could only watch the show for that group of people. It wasn't until Wenger came to his side with an iron face that Xiang Hao felt that something was wrong, and she was going back, and she was going to be scolded.
But fortunately, the old man is not a strict head coach as others say, Xiang Hao doesn't want to be driven back on the first day he is on the first team, that: one: this: read: novel 3w.ybdu, it will be big.
"If you know, it's good." Without the sophistry and perfunctory coping of his imagination, Wenger couldn't help but nod secretly.
Arsene Wenger values the talent of his players, but he also values the savvy of these men, or whether they are teachable. Undoubtedly, Xiang Hao's humble attitude made Wenger quite satisfied, and this mature heart is enough to ensure that he can achieve greater achievements on the court and go further.
Although he was more satisfied with Xiang Hao in his heart, Wenger's originally peaceful face sank slightly, and said: "The next punishment is also necessary, it is also helpful for you to integrate into this collective, and it is also a test for you." ”
"Test?" Xiang Hao didn't understand what Wenger's sudden 'contrast' meant, so he couldn't help asking.
"Okay, Hao, then you have to listen to my arrangement, let's go, go and choose your jersey first, that's the first thing you do in the first team, and the most important thing." Wenger didn't answer, Rice glanced at him, then smiled and patted Xiang Hao on the shoulder, led him away, and took him to the equipment room.
Xiang Hao saw that they didn't say anything, and it was inconvenient to ask more, he knew that Wenger would definitely not deliberately target him. Xiang Hao has heard about his cultivation of young players since his previous life, and in this life, Xiang Hao knows that his attention and promotion of young players will only be more, and he will listen to the arrangement. And since they all let themselves choose the shirt and prove that they will still be in the first team, nothing else matters.
Xiang Hao is indeed worried about what the first jersey of his career will be, as Uncle Rice said, choosing a jersey number is not a trivial matter.
In the eyes of many players, the number can not only indicate what position they play on the field, but also represent a good or bad meaning to some extent, giving themselves psychological hints. The vast majority of players have their own preferred numbers, even if they can't get the one they are most satisfied with, they will choose the number that can be related to the number in their hearts.
Xiang Hao experienced such a rebirth as a rebellious thing, and did not reject this statement, so he naturally hoped that he could choose a good jersey number, so he asked Rice out loud, "Coach Rice, what are the remaining jerseys?" ”
Compared with lucky numbers, Xiang Hao prefers to wear a legendary jersey. Being able to wear a legendary jersey is not only a recognition of your own strength, but also a representation of the coach's importance to you, and it is the best source of motivation for the players. It is impossible for Xiang Hao not to be eager, after all, Walcoat has got Henry's No. 14, but unfortunately, now Arsenal should not have any legendary jerseys, and it may be more realistic to choose a good number.
"Hehe, see for yourself, the empty numbers are here." Les smiled and opened a row of wardrobes and let Xiang Hao choose by himself.
As soon as Xiang Hao saw Rice talking so well, he immediately went to turn over these jerseys by himself, he focused on the number between 12-15, before 12, he must have been selected, although Xiang Hao has the confidence to gain a foothold in the first team, but he will not be so ****, as soon as he comes up, he will grab the number with others, affecting his relationship with those main teammates, and being invisibly suppressed.
As for the 25 after, except for some special reasons for the players, it is basically the choice of the players between the first team and the reserve team, since they are on the first team, they don't plan to play in the reserve team, and they want to choose the number within 25.
There is no need to choose more, 12-25, there are only three left, needless to say the first one, No. 13, the previous one was the unlucky Hleb who had just left Arsenal to go to Barcelona, and the number was also unlucky, Xiang Hao was the first to rule this out.
The second is the number 18, which is a very auspicious number, but in the Arsenal team, it is an unlucky number. Needless to say, the previous Sigan was basically a member of the team who spent time in a hospital bed, and the later Sylvester and Squealazzi were not only unlucky, but also had the name of carrying waste materials. 18, it's more like a falling flower here, it won't last long, Xiang Hao is not very satisfied.
Another No. 23, you can also consider, the star is very good, and the previous team member is the famous Thor? Campbell, who later ranked 15th among Arsenal's top 50 superstars. And what is even more starry is the great basketball god Joe Gang Leader, although he and himself are not in tune at all now, but his name is so good, he chose 23, maybe he can get into the fairy spirit, become a god as soon as possible, and make a name for himself on the football field. It's a pity that it's too close to 25, and the number of God is not as auspicious as the number 18, which is a fly in the ointment.
Rice kept looking at Xiang Hao's expression, saw his eyes wandering between No. 18 and No. 23, he was also a player, faintly understood Xiang Hao's psychological thoughts, couldn't help nodding secretly, always kind eyes with a hint of smile, turned around and opened the leftmost room of the wardrobe, took out a jersey and unfolded it, and said: "Hao, look at this number, do you dare to wear it?" ”
White characters on a red background, impressively printed with the Arabic numeral "6" and a string of letters "adams" - Adams, seeing this number, this name, Xiang Hao was stunned.
No. 6, Adams, may not be known to younger fans, but Xiang Hao joined the Arsenal junior academy at the age of 7, so he naturally understands the meaning of this number and name, which represents the most iron-blooded and tenacious era of Arsenal, and it is also the era of eternal loyalty.
Later, Arsenal's official website selected the top 50 superstars, and King Thierry of Highbury? Thierry Henry's ability to become the number one star in the club's more than 100-year history has raised a lot of doubts, especially among fans who have watched football for a long time in the UK. And it is not Bergkamp, who is close behind him, who thinks he has the ability to challenge Henry's position, but the owner of the No. 6 shirt, Tony? Adams.
This Arsenal's eternal captain, a natural leader, has blessed Highbury for 19 years with his loyal soul, from playing in the first team at the age of 17 to retiring from winning the Premier League title at the age of 36, and has never left Arsenal.
Adams is not only a staunch enforcer of Graham's ugly football, but also a defender of Arsene Wenger's flamboyant football, it was he who took the lead in quitting alcohol and allowed Arsene Wenger's transformation plan to be implemented, and it was he who taught Patrick Vieira to become a qualified captain for the next generation of Arsenal. And when Adams retired, Arsenal also sealed his No. 6 shirt.
It wasn't until last season that it welcomed its new owner, Senderos, who is considered Arsenal's future defensive hope. It's a pity that the Swede lived up to this legendary number, and this season he was sent to AC Milan, and this number was also taken back by the club, and now Rice has taken it out again, which surprised and delighted Xiang Hao.
As soon as this Arsenal's most legendary and traditional number appeared, Xiang Hao, whose eyes lit up, snatched the dress away. He didn't care why Rice deliberately took out this jersey at the last moment, anyway, he was No. 6, Shun!
Afraid that Rice would take it back again, Xiang Hao quickly took off his shirt and put the jersey inside. What is there to dare not wear, the Swedes can't hold down this jersey, it doesn't mean that they can't hold it down, "Rice, how is it, does it fit well?" ”
After getting the jersey that he was satisfied with, Xiang Hao was very happy, turned around in a circle, posed a few poss, and asked a stinky question.
Les looked at Xiang Hao's childlike appearance, his kind eyes narrowed into a slit, nodded incessantly, and said with satisfaction: "Not bad, Hao, your figure is better than I imagined, you turn your clothes open again and let me see." As he spoke, Les was about to reach out and lift Xiang Hao's clothes.
"Hey, Coach Rice, I'm not a fan of that, I'm going to train first." As soon as Xiang Hao saw Uncle Rice move his hands and feet, his face changed in fright, and he didn't have time to show off, so he quickly slipped away and ran away.
"I don't have that hobby, I'm just very happy with your figure."
When Les heard his words, he was not annoyed, but just shook his head helplessly and explained. This explanation made Xiang Hao run farther, and soon disappeared, and the explanation could not be finished, so Rice had to go back to Wenger first.
"How's it going, did he pick it right?" Standing on the balcony of the corridor, watching his team members jogging on the opposite field, Wenger did not look back, and directly asked Xiang Hao about the situation.
"Hehe, it's No. 6, we underestimated that kid's guts." Rice smiled and told Wenger what happened in the equipment room, and added at the end, "Hao's figure is really good." ”
Wenger was stunned for a moment, then nodded with satisfaction, "That's good, let's announce the numbers of our team for the new season in a few days." ”
