The news that La Masia had once again welcomed a little genius soon spread.

On the second day after Farrell officially joined La Masia's academy, Academy director Moreno couldn't help but come to watch Farrell's training and praised his ball handling skills.

Moreno even said excitedly: "Thank God for bringing another genius to La Masia." "You must know that La Masia has been in a shortage of talents in recent years, although there are all kinds of good seedlings entering the academy every year, but there is really no one who can really be called a genius.

La Masia pays a lot of attention to the player's possession skills, and almost every academy student has practiced the ball control skills at most. Because of this, in today's football, any player who goes out of La Masia, whether an insider or a layman, can judge at a glance whether the player is really from La Masia. The difference is the player's ability to pass the ball.

Among the current academy students, Farrell, as a new junior student, has perfected his ball control skills, far surpassing his peers, and even putting him into a higher-level echelon compared with the big boys, I am afraid that he has a winning rate of most of them.

However, in a team, having good ball control skills is not everything, and football is a team game, not an individual show. So after thinking about it for a while, the director Moreno finally decided to put Farrell into the U10 team to explore the situation, to see if the kid could adapt to the team and find his place in the team.

As a result, a week after joining La Masia, Farrell was notified that he had officially joined the U10 team.

Farrell was overjoyed when he got the news, and his first thought was naturally to bring the news to Lianyin.

As a congratulatory gesture to Farrell, Lianyin gave him a peony. The only difference is that last time it was a white peony, this time it is an elegant pink.

Lian Yin smiled and said, "You are so good, you will definitely be welcomed by everyone." ”

Farrell took the pink peony like a baby, and was very happy in his heart, and after thinking about it, he assured Lianyin: "I will." As for what it means to be popular with everyone, Farrell is a little ignorant and doesn't fully understand, but if that's what Ligato wants, then he'll definitely try to achieve it.

The peony is a relatively delicate flower, which likes shade rather than drought, so Farrell couldn't wait to store it and raise it after returning home. After that, I had to take a look at it every morning to make sure that the peony was okay before I went to school.

After entering La Masia, Farrell became as busy as Legato.

Every morning, he has to go to school as usual, and in the afternoon, after lunch, the La Masia school bus will take him to the Gamble Sports City, where he will not only practice his skills, but also learn a lot about the culture of football. It wasn't until after night that the school bus took him home and the day was really over.

However, compared to the rento only has half a day off a week, Farrell has three days of rest a week, which is still much easier than the rento.

During these three days of rest, Farrell would make a good time to come to Las Ramblas, just to meet Lian Yin before she went to dance class, even if it was just to say "hello" and "goodbye", which was a kind of satisfaction for Farrell.

……

On the subject of how to become a popular person, it can be regarded as a relatively in-depth and difficult problem for Farrell, who is a little shy in his personality.

Farrell didn't want to live up to Lianyin's expectations of himself, so he tried his best to suppress the shyness in his heart and tried his best to integrate into the U10 echelon group. However, to his surprise, he didn't seem to have to do anything deliberately, and the students of his age around him seemed to like to talk and play with him.

Although, the most they said was: "Farrell, how did you practice your ball skills?" "Farrell, do you have time for the weekend? How about we practice together? "I heard you used to practice ball control against the wall by yourself? Let's practice together in the future. ”

In this situation, the little boy who finally mustered up the courage to "integrate" into the crowd was cowardly again, and the whole person was shy and shy like a girl, unable to say anything.

Fortunately, most of the children in the U10 echelon are cheerful and enthusiastic, and they don't care about Farrell's shy appearance at all, and even think that he is quite funny like this. When I'm fine, I always like to tease Farrell.

Although Farrell can't respond to these enthusiastic and cheerful children in words, he will respond to their friendliness in practical actions. For example, helping them out in practice, or passing a few assists to the little boy who plays as a striker in a match.

Also because of Farrell's multi-pass performance that never steals the limelight, Thiago, the small forward of the same team, especially likes Farrell. After a few matches, Thiago has become familiar with Farrell, and always likes to take Farrell's shoulders affectionately despite Farrell's protests and opposition, and preach to other teammates the "fact" that they are good brothers and good partners.

But everyone knew Thiago was wishful thinking, so the big guy never paid much attention to his self-hype.

But even so, Thiago is very self-assured. No way, who made him such a cheerful and enthusiastic person by nature, it seems to be very complementary to Farrell, who is shy and like a little girl.

Well, so they are destined to be good brothers and partners.

Because of this, Thiago, who joined the academy a year earlier than Farrell, took on the responsibility of taking care of Farrell on his own initiative.

Farrell didn't say anything, but gradually accepted this familiar friend.

……

After a mild and rainy early spring, Barcelona is back to sunny days.

In this sunny city, every time you look up at the sky, you will have a lot of vitality shining on your body along the sun. The whole person seems to have undergone some photosynthesis, not only consciously thriving, but also full of infinite motivation.

After honing his skills in the U10 for more than half a year, Farrell officially jumped to join the U13 team at the beginning of the following year.

Joining him in skipping the grade is the small forward Thiago who has to form a brotherly partnership with Farrell. But now Thiago no longer calls Farrell a brother and partner, but has changed to a newly learned word, called: good friend.
