Chapter 19 Integration into the team
Chapter 19: Integrating into the Team "Hmm! β
With a muffled snort, the hero in the sandbag formation is once again knocked down head-on by the sandbag. Although it wasn't too painful, the sourness coming from the tip of his nose still made him uncomfortable for a while. He shrugged the bridge of his nose, and water was already instinctively welling up in his eyes.
"Hey, man, come over and get some rest and some ice water. You've been practicing for 2 hours. Aimar, who had been watching with interest for a while, said.
"Got it, Pablo."
It's 2 p.m., the hottest part of the day. Although the weather in Spain has always been good, the training ground at this time is also like a furnace under the direct sun, which is uncomfortable.
Training in such weather, the hero's body is lost very quickly. At this time, his sweat had completely soaked his training clothes, and his whole body seemed to be soaked by heavy rain.
"Hmm!"
After picking up the ice water and taking a sip, the hero couldn't help but hum in comfort. A refreshing chill flowed down the throat and spread to the whole body, extinguishing the heat of the body.
Even because of the scorching summer, some unhappy moods have been comforted and calmed at this time.
In training, taking such a bite from time to time has become the happiest thing for heroes in training.
After drinking, he was reluctant to put the water bottle down immediately, but put it on his fiery face, and made a humming sound in comfort.
Seeing the greedy little appearance of the hero, Aimar on the side couldn't help but smile.
It was only then that he remembered that the hero was just an 18-year-old, not the wolf-like shooter he had been in the tryout that day.
"Smack, little one, is it really effective for you to practice this thing?"
Although he couldn't bear to interrupt the hero's enjoyment, driven by curiosity, Aimar patted the hero on the shoulder and asked curiously.
"Oh, you said this" didn't mind being disturbed, and after the hero was stunned for a moment, he explained to the expectant Aimar.
Since the whole Valencia team returned from the warm-up match, the training equipment of the heroes has become a hot topic of discussion for the whole team every day. Through the efforts of generations of Chinese kung fu superstars, Chinese kung fu at this time has become one of the most impressive marks of foreigners on China.
At this time, it is as if Spider-Man suddenly pulled spider silk and landed in front of you from the sky, and a moment of commotion and curiosity is inevitable.
Even head coach Rafael Benitez was no exception, and when he first saw these things, he pulled Bernard and the two of them for a long time, and looked up and down with surprise and approval from time to time.
With Bernard's support, Benitez did not let the strangeness hinder the hero's training plan. Having worked with Bernard for a long time, he knows that his partner is not joking about this kind of thing, and these innovative training tools and methods of heroes are indeed effective.
So, instead of stopping him, he often took time to observe the hero's training with relish.
Rafa Benitez is not a master of words, he is more of an Italian style manager, managing players and teams is not his interest, he is more concerned with the team's tactics and the development and training of players. To put it simply, it's the style of an old-fashioned, nerdy.
Heroes, something he'd never heard of, were as exciting and curious to him as a nerd getting a brand new book.
In this way, the hero's unique training method was allowed to be retained, and he also earned the nickname Kung Fu Kid in the Valencia team.
"Really?! The Chinese are incredible. β
After listening to the hero's detailed description, Aimar looked at the sandbag array with incredible eyes, as if he couldn't believe that such a simple and strange thing could have such a big effect.
"Hey, kung fu kid, can you teach me a trick or two?" It seemed that he couldn't wait to experience the magic of kung fu for himself, Aimar continued.
"No problem."
Without any hesitation, the hero readily agreed.
For the gentle Argentine star, the hero had a very good opinion of him from the beginning of the trial. After the game, Aimar became his closest and first team-mate in the Valencia squad.
Plus, his help to the hero in the tryout. Reasonably, the hero feels that he has no reason to refuse.
It's just that when it comes to choosing what kung fu to teach Aimar, the hero has a problem. The kung fu he knows, whether it is Tongzigong or playing legs, takes time to practice before it can be effective and helpful.
If he casually handed Aimar a few tricks, the hero couldn't get over it, which would make Aimar feel like he was just fooling himself.
After thinking about it for a while, the hero's eyes lit up and he immediately made a decision. He thought of the strange joy he had when he first taught Bernard the Boy Skill Consolidation.
Anyway, no matter how weird it is, it's a joy after all, and although the hero himself doesn't understand why this is so, he knows that the other party should like it.
Now that he had made a decision, he didn't delay any time, and repeated what he had said to Bernard to Aymar before.
Sure enough, Aimar also showed that strange joy after hearing this. Not only patted the hero's shoulder with satisfaction, but also nodded to the hero with a satisfied expression that you are really a brother.
Why is that? Because of his upbringing and upbringing, the hero who has not yet understood the affairs of men and women is still confused and cannot understand the deep meaning of Bernard and Aimar's smiles.
Soon after, something happened that deepened his doubts.
Aimar, who has a good personality and has always been popular, understands that good things can't be enjoyed alone, and after trying to consolidate this article, he quietly spread the news to the entire Valencia team.
Then, all of a sudden, the new hero, integrated into Valencia at a speed beyond common sense, and got on good terms with almost everyone.
What's going on. At first, the hero himself had a stomach problem, and he didn't know why he became so attractive in an instant. It wasn't until he got acquainted with it, and everyone began to deliberately start to knock on Tong Zigong from time to time, that he suddenly realized what was going on with the meaningful eyes of the Argentines looking at him a few days after teaching Aimargu this story.
In his heart, he was grateful to Aimar again.
The hero is well aware that with Aimar's status in the Valencia team, there is no need for him to befriend his teammates in this way.
Or rather, he could have taught these teammates on his own without having to pull the hero in. Because the hero's childlike skills are not high-end dangerous goods in Chinese film and television works after all, if you are not careful, you will go crazy, just some postures and tips.
Therefore, Aimar did this intentionally to help the hero integrate into Valencia as much as possible.
Integration is not just about being a part of the team, but about building relationships with everyone in the team, from small to large, in order to be truly part of the team.
It is not easy to do this, in addition to personal experience, it requires the cooperation of seniority, status and even prestige. This is especially difficult for young players like Hero.
Originally, the hero had a headache about it, and there was not much public talk between him and these long-established professional players. So, he thought he wouldn't be able to do it until around the middle of the season.
After really integrating into the team, it will be of great use to a young player who has just debuted like Hero. From the cultivation of tacit understanding with teammates to the opportunity to get passes on the pitch, it is all closely related.
Therefore, Aimar can be said to have done the hero a great favor after the trial match this time. It is because of this that the friendship between the hero and Aimar begins to be truly established.
In addition, the hero actually got a benefit from this that he didn't expect, let's just call it a benefit.
It wasn't long before he became the most influential woman friend of the Valencia team, and all the Valencia staff and the female families of the players filled him with gratitude that he himself could not understand.
But until he actually became a man, he didn't understand what his teammates' weird smiles meant, and where the sincere gratitude of women he had never met or who had only met in person came from.
Of course, that's a story for later, so let's not mention it for now.
Anyway, the hero's football path has taken a solid step forward.
The current full and simple days make the hero feel very comfortable.
However, those days will soon come to an end, as the new La Liga season is about to begin. And more importantly, Valencia's opponent in the first La Liga game is the opponent of the hero's dreams.
Although it is not his former parent club Barcelona, it has enough weight.
"Why is there a yellow man here?! Hell, get him out of here, the yellow race can play football, what are you kidding me. It seems that La Masia is also starting to be dazzled, and even admitted a yellow person, do they take money?! β
To this day, Valladolid coach InΓ‘cio's harsh sarcasm will ring in the hero's ears from time to time and become one of the sources of motivation for his hard training.
Playing the field, scoring goals, and then slapping him in the face, these are the words that the hero must have silently recited in his heart several times whenever he thinks of these words.
Seeing that the start time is getting closer and closer, the hero's performance on the training ground is becoming more and more active, and in order to play, he must first work hard to get into the squad for Benitez.
"Little guy, pay attention to the training scale, don't work too hard. I'll go home first, bye-bye. β
"Oh, got it. Bye. β
After saying goodbye to Aimar, the hero did not leave there, and worked hard in the training base where only one person remained.
Bang, bang, bang, bang
At this time, he is training for his own long-range shots, and he still needs more hard work and study in long-range shots than shots in the box.
Swinging his right leg tied to the iron sandbag, he kicked the ball towards the goal 23 meters away. It wasn't until sweat flowed into his eyes that the hero stopped, wiped the sweat, and rested a little.
At this time, although it is already sunset, and the clouds in the sky are burning red at dusk, there is still a little time before the hero finishes training.
But today, he was destined not to finish this training homework, because he welcomed a visitor.
"Hello, are you the new player from Valencia?"
"I'm Ruud, a reporter for Valencia's Supersport, can I ask you a few questions?"
A young voice suddenly sounded, and the hero turned his head to see a handsome white white man in a suit and leather shoes, dressed appropriately, appearing behind him, with a friendly smile on his face.
But, the smile is too fake.
