Against Arsenal, Liang Qiqi sat on the bench again.

In fact, this is not a surprising thing, since Hao Dong announced that Zhou Yi would be the organizational core of the team, Liang Qiqi should understand that he was reduced to a substitute.

There weren't as many people in the team as there were before, which made him very disappointed.

is also very unwilling.

He couldn't accept this reality, but now he can only wait, waiting for the opportunity that belongs to him, just like Zhou Yi waited for the opportunity at the beginning.

Liang Qiqi knew that Zhou Yi's physical fitness was not good, so in continuous high-intensity games, this kid would definitely not be able to persevere.

And the outstanding performance on the court needs to be supported by physical fitness, and he doesn't believe that Zhou Yi can still show any decent performance when he can't even run.

When Zhou Yi is not in good physical condition or performs poorly, that is his chance!

This time, I'm going to get back what I lost!

The main position, and others attach importance to themselves!

Arsenal's under-17 team is also outstanding. In English football, Arsenal's youth academy has always been well-known, and they have also produced a number of stars who are now playing in professional football.

Arsene Wenger, Arsenal manager, is also known for his emphasis on youth development and his willingness to give young players opportunities.

Arsenal's first-team squad has a number of young players who have been promoted from the Academy.

Some of these young players have already played in the first team, others have been training with the first team, starting or coming off the bench in the Carabao Cup or less important leagues, and most of the time playing with the youth team.

So it's not appropriate to say that these people are pure youth team players, in fact, they are already youth team players with first-team ability.

And today, these players also appeared in the match against the Chinese teenagers.

For example, forward Jack Wilshere, such as back Francis Cochlin, such as striker Gille Sunu.

All three are players on professional contracts, but due to the overcrowding of the first team, they are not guaranteed to play regularly in the first team, so they still play with the youth team most of the time.

Cochring made his first professional league appearance of his career in Arsenal's home league game against Sheffield United some time ago, when he came off the bench in a 6-0 thrashing of Sheffield United.

Wilshere, on the other hand, started that game and scored a goal.

Jack Wilshere is already considered a key figure in the future of LinkedIn Glen, and his talent has thrilled the media and fans throughout England.

Some have compared him to Cesc Fabregas. Cesc Fabregas, who now captains Arsenal as a midfielder, made his first senior appearance at the age of 16, while Wilshere was 16.

Arsenal fans think it's too beautiful to think that Arsenal's midfield will be made up of Cesc Fabregas and Wilshere in the future......

It stands to reason that an Arsenal youth team with such a strong squad should have been in full control of the tempo from the start of the game and then quickly settled the battle and let the rest of the time become garbage time.

Standing on the sidelines of the youth team's training ground, Tim Kitter, who wears a cap, thinks so.

This is the first time he has watched this group of Chinese teenagers play, and he believes that from the analysis of the results of the past few games, the strength of this Chinese team should not be strong, it is normal for them to lose to Arsenal, and the suspense is just a few goals lost.

As for the match against Borussia Dortmund...... Kist chose to forget.

But when the game started, Kitter found that things weren't quite what he had imagined.

Wilshere's Arsenal youth army did not have the absolute upper hand against the Chinese teenagers.

In midfield, on the other hand, there was a bit of a stalemate......

Kitter doesn't have to deliberately look for a Chinese teenager on the pitch who is Zhou Yi, the football will help him draw his attention - when the Chinese team is in possession, the other Chinese players will basically pass the football to the same person.

The player wearing the No. 16 jersey of the Chinese team is his target Zhou Yi.

At first glance, Zhou Yi's passing is very plain and simple, with no dazzling fancy passes, such as using the outside instep to make an arc, bypassing three defenders, and accurately sending it to the feet of his teammates, or passing a long pass that is close to the ground forty meters away, like a scalpel-like precision from the two defenders who tackle the ball, and send it to the feet of the striker......

Such a pass, fifteen minutes into the game, Kister did not see a single kick.

He just runs, catches, passes, runs, catches, passes.

Many of the passes are short distances of about five to ten meters, which are not very difficult and have little technical content.

But Kist, a scout who has read countless people, certainly doesn't think Zhou Yi is a parallel commodity because of this.

He quickly saw the meaning in these bland passes.

He squinted his eyes and carefully observed Zhou Yi's every run and pass to catch the ball, and he found that all of Zhou Yi's actions on the court were not as "understated" as he showed, and naturally it was not accidental.

Every run he makes seems to be carefully calculated, always able to run into the open to catch the ball, so that when he receives the ball, he is basically undisturbed.

He just run, catch the ball and pass the ball, and he was able to make the Chinese team fight for a draw with the Arsenal youth team in the midfield, and it was 15 minutes after the opening game, and the Arsenal youth team had not been able to score a goal!

Keist kind of understood why Klopp was interested in this kid.

This is a Harvey-esque player!

In Barcelona, Xavi has always been an unobtrusive but very important figure. In the eyes of many, he may not be as popular as Brazilian Ronaldinho or as dazzling as Argentine prodigy Lionel Messi, but anyone who really understands what Barcelona football means will understand Xavi's role and value in that team.

In the early days of Rijkaard's tenure at Barcelona, Xavi's main position was not stable, and his role in the team was not as important as Deco and Ronaldinho.

But in the latter stages of Rijkaard's tenure, Xavi's role became increasingly apparent.

Now that Pep Guardiola, who also came from the La Masia system, is in charge of Barcelona's first team, Xavi's importance is immediately highlighted.

He is already a well-deserved midfield heart for this team.

With the cooperation of Iniesta, Buzquez and Messi, Xavi sorted out Barcelona's midfield.

This discovery surprised Keyter a little.

With his understanding of the level of Chinese football, he really didn't expect that there would be such an alternative player among Chinese players.

Which club does he play for in China?

It wasn't just Borussia Dortmund's scout Tim Kitter who was surprised, but also Arsenal's head of academy Liam Brady, who was watching from the sidelines.

He had been courteous to the Chinese guests and had been accompanying him on the sidelines to watch the game.

But after only ten minutes of watching, he became focused and earnest.

Of course, he is not looking at Wilshere, he already knows a lot about the current Arsenal youth team, what positions each child is good at, and he knows the technical characteristics by heart.

His eyes were locked on the Chinese team's No. 16.

Although in the ten minutes of the game, Zhou Yi has not passed anything that can threaten the Arsenal goal.

But as a coach who has been training youth football for more than a decade, this is purely a sense of football.

He could see a little bit of the doorway from every run of Zhou Yi.

I thought it was just a game in the form of a walk-and-go, but I didn't expect to make a new discovery now. But Brady didn't jump to conclusions right away.

He also needed more observation, and in his working life, he had seen countless gifted children, some of whom were as talented as the scorching sun. But in the end, these people all fell, and they didn't even wait for a chance to shine.

Just because a child is talented doesn't mean he has the ability to make his mark in professional football.

Brady remained silent and continued to observe Zhou Yi.

In addition to Borussia Dortmund's scouts and Arsenal's head of academy, perhaps the more surprising person was Jack Wilshere on the pitch.

Originally, he didn't pay much attention to this competition.

For him, it was just a remedy to keep him in shape after he didn't make the first-team squad.

Since participating in a series of warm-up games with the team's senior team this summer, Wilshere has set his sights on establishing himself in the first team and becoming a true 'Gunners'.

After starting the league game against Sheffield United and scoring a goal, his mind was largely off the youth team. He believes that in today's youth team at this level of competition, his strength is outstanding and he can't find an opponent.

There is no point in improving himself in the youth team competition, he still has to go to a bigger stage, but challenge stronger opponents.

At first, he knew that he was not selected for the first team squad for this game, and he was still a little disappointed, and his mood was not very high, so it was naturally impossible to concentrate in this youth team game.

Fifteen minutes later, however, he noticed that the youth team was a little different.

Before the game, I heard that this is a youth team from China, and it is a recording session of a reality TV show, including him, all the Arsenal youth team players think that this game must be very good, and it will be solved casually, maybe after the game, they will not even get their jerseys wet.

But now they thought the goal would come easily was late and they didn't know when it would come.

Wilshire is already feeling the pressure.

At first he didn't pay attention to his opponent, but now when he starts to pay attention to his opponent, he finds that in his turf - in the midfield area, he seems to have met his opponent......
