In the coming period, York City's schedule is also relatively dense, and it is more important to face opponents like Bolton Wanderers and Scanthorpe in succession.

Therefore, the York City coaching staff also attaches great importance to this, and it is important to rotate and recover well in such a schedule to avoid the accumulation of injuries and fatigue.

Fortunately, captain Karlstrom has recovered from injury at this time and will return soon, which has greatly strengthened York City's squad depth and given Scaloni more room to maneuver in the use of troops.

As the owner of the club, Pan Yi is very relaxed when the team is busy.

After all, the internal affairs of the team are now in the hands of Chairman Jason McGill, the director of business and external relations is in charge of Victor Horta, the team has Scaloni and De Zerbi in terms of games and training, and Graham Potter in the youth department......

Is there anything he needs to do personally?

No.

However, Pan Yi did not let himself be idle.

The training of the youth academy is to let Potter preside, but in terms of players, Pan Yi still has to shoot.

Now that the youth training system is gradually getting up, he has to help the team enrich some talents, otherwise he just relies on scouts to get it, when will he have to wait until he can hold it up?

After all, the scouting network has only just been rolled out, and it is impossible to catch so many good players so quickly to fill the various echelons of the club.

As soon as Pan Yi made a move, of course, he was all hand-to-hand, and many people had already been brought to York City during this time.

With the experience of poaching at Chelsea, Pan Yi basically does not touch the princes of those big teams, but goes to some small clubs to talk to people, including the clubs in the Dragon Kingdom.

There are some Dragons players who have proven their potential in his previous life, so let's try to see if we can get them to England to train.

Maybe he will practice it in advance like Lin Liangming?

After all, the level of training here is not comparable in China......

——

"Hey, Yellow!" Pan Yi came to the training ground of the reserve team, and saw Huang Zichang from a distance who was still strengthening his physical training after finishing regular training.

As soon as the latter saw Pan Yi, he immediately ran over and called out politely: "Boss!" ”

Huang Zichang is from the echelon of Jiangsu Suning, and was also selected for the U19 national youth team of Longguo last year.

He has delicate skills, strong self-confidence, and a diligent attitude, and he has the demeanor of a general on the court, which is the type that Pan Yi admires more.

In Pan Yi's previous life, Huang Zichang was still inconspicuous now, and he didn't even play in Jiangsu's first team, but in 2018, he will usher in an outbreak.

Within a year, he achieved the national triple jump: he was selected for the Dragon National Men's Football Team, the U23 National Team and the U21 National Olympic Selection Team at the same time, and he performed well.

However, it is precisely because of this fucked spirit of "use it to death" that Huang Zichang finally suffered a fatigue fracture due to overfatigue and was reimbursed for the whole season.

Even after recovering from injury and returning to the game, it was obvious that his form was not as good as before, so he directly became a short-lived representative.

Therefore, Pan Yi decided to "save" him in this life, save some money, and see if he can reach a higher height.

And now he is 20 years old, older than many of the current York City first-team players, but obviously not up to the requirements of the first team in terms of strength, so just put him in the reserve team to train and play.

What makes Pan Yi feel relieved is that Huang Zichang is still as he understood in his previous life, his professional attitude is still quite good, and he often trains himself, but Pan Yi wants to persuade him to take it easy, after all, he is afraid that he will "repeat the mistakes of the past".

If he has the chance, he can go to the first team and try to play in some less important games, after all, there are no good candidates for the first team forward at the moment.

"Ready, let's go watch the game." Pan Yi patted Huang Zichang's shoulder.

There is a big highlight in this round of the Premier League, and that is Manchester City's home game against Manchester United.

So Pan Yi called a few young players from the Dragon Kingdom to watch the game together.

Yorkshire is so close to Manchester, just over an hour's drive away, so it's time to wait for the players to finish training before they go.

And that's to help them progress!

After all, the players of the Dragon Kingdom were too indifferent to the international vision in China.

Now that I'm in the UK, it's about taking them to see more high-level events and opening their eyes.

Watching live in front of the TV is a different story!

If you want to really understand the changes in the whole formation during the game, the movement of the players, you must not be limited to a small screen, otherwise, there will be no need for scouts, everyone can choose players at home watching TV.

Moreover, the atmosphere of the top event site can also make them yearn for the competition and life here, and make them work harder!

"Okay!" After hearing this, Huang Zichang in front of him looked excited, nodded his head in agreement, and then turned around and ran to the locker room.

Pan Yi nodded, walked around the sidelines, and came to the other side of the training ground.

It can be seen that Dai Weijun, Zhu Chenjie and others are still training as a team under the arrangement of U19 youth team coach Bernhard Peters, so Pan Yi didn't bother them, just stood aside and watched silently.

In this team, they don't stand out at all, and they can even be said to be a little behind their teammates.

Now they are split into two sides to play a small attacking game, with the likes of Camavinga, Saliba and Kvaratskhelia on the other side.

Camavinga's side is younger but more technically superior, especially from Georgia's Kvaratskhelia, who is superior in skill on the pitch and is often able to show a lot of good play in a row, drawing cheers from his team-mates on the pitch.

It is precisely because of the level of excellence in all aspects that the 16-year-old Camavinga, Saliba and Kvaratskhelia have all been promoted to the under-19 youth team training.

"Hey, over here!" Kvaratskhelia ran along the left touchline towards the baseline, his hands raised high.

Camavinga, who played in midfield today, clearly saw him and sent a very penetrating diagonal pass through the gap between the two defenders and just right in front of Kvaratskhelia.

Kvaratskhelia made a trip, passed one player on the other side, continued to accelerate, and passed another one, down and crossed!

Zhu Chenjie in the middle tried his best to overwhelm the other party, and the physical confrontation was very intense, but Saliba, who was at the front today, took the advantage, blocked Zhu Chenjie behind him, jumped high, and hit the goal with a header!

The ball was saved by the goalkeeper, but Kvaratskhelia was already clever enough to run from the left side to the ribs, exactly in the direction of the ball.

Kvaratskhelia unloaded very lightly, stopped the ball firmly to his right, and calmly got up and fired a powerful right-footed shot!

This time it's in!

The wonderful goal also caused the young people to cheer.

At this time, Potter didn't know when he also came to the training ground and stood beside Pan Yi.

"Where did you find these treasures? Some of them are even from places like Georgia......"

Hearing Potter's question, Pan Yi did not answer directly, but said with a smile: "You can say whether you are satisfied or not." ”

Potter nodded: "Of course I am satisfied." Kvaratskhelia, in particular, his technique is always imaginative, and even we are often amazed by his performances! ”

"He's still a little thinner." Pan Yi said, "It's still necessary to strengthen some exercise." But there is no need to force it, the imagination of young people is still the most important. ”

"Of course!" Potter nodded and smiled, "They are still at the age of developing their skills, we will try to tap into their talent as much as possible, and they will definitely become the jewels of the club in the future." ”

"These two guys from our Dragon Kingdom are not bad, right?" Pan Yi pointed to the court and said.

"Well, Dai Weijun's performance has exceeded the maturity of his age, and his impact and creativity on the court are also impressive." "And Zhu Chenjie can be said to be a natural defender, very good at using his bounce and height advantage to defend. But the basic skills are a little worse, and they need to be honed again. ”

Pan Yi nodded in understanding.

It's not that domestic players don't have talent, but they are often prone to deviate in the process of growth.

If it can be corrected in their youth and adolescence, there is still hope!

"These kids are also very good, your vision is awesome!" Potter suddenly pointed to another training ground.

That's where the Under-16s train and they're training to catch the ball and shoot.

Now in front of the gate, it is Liu Shao Ziyang from the Dragon Kingdom, and the one who just crossed the defender and shot hard is Musiala, a dual national of Germany and England.

"He's got a lot more solid fundamentals, so it looks like he's comfortable with the next move after he stops the ball." Graham Potter is clearly full of praise for Musiala: "He's technically good, he's very perceptive, he's good at handling the ball in tight spaces, and he's always confident on the pitch and can play with stride. ”

"He's not bad at archery, isn't he?" Pan Yi asked with a smile.

"Yes, but he's best at the number 10 position, which is the traditional attacking midfielder. Of course, his speed and technique allow him to play on the wings as well. But when it comes to archery, I think he's stronger. ”

As he spoke, Potter pointed to the black player who was now on the field preparing to catch the ball.

I saw that he gently picked up the ball passed by the coach, but he didn't mean to dribble, but directly volleyed through the gate guarded by Liu Shao Ziyang.

"Oh, you mean Vashi." Pan Yi said.

The future goalscorer for France's Under-21 squad made his way into Montpellier's first team at the age of 17 and became the team's top scorer in his second Ligue 1 season at the age of 18.

However, Pan Yi knew that this guy was like Baker and Armand, and he only learned about it when he played FM games through an UP master at Station B......

But he is also very good in reality, and his wonderful performances have also attracted the attention of many teams, and if nothing else, he should be poached by bigger teams soon.

Unlike Musiala, Wahi is more of a pure shooter, which is why Potter would say that Wahi's marksmanship is better.

"A lot of the goalscorers in football, whether it's Romario or Ruud van Nistelrooy, they have a characteristic, which is that they stop the ball very well, they are very calm, and then the next move is very lethal, which is considered to be the instinct of a goalscorer."

"Washi has this instinct too?" Pan Yi was a little surprised.

He knew Wahi was good, but he didn't expect Potter to compare him to players of the caliber of Romario and Ruud van Nistelrooy.

"No, it's not just an instinct, it's also a technique, a technique that uses the simplest, most direct, most effective and standardized actions to stop the ball and shoot." Potter explained, "Sometimes, on the football pitch, it's not a good thing to be fancy about it. Musiala's dribbling was really wonderful, but sometimes he delayed the plane because he wanted to show himself too fancy. But Wahi, on the other hand, was very decisive when it came to shooting opportunities. ”

Pan Yi couldn't stop nodding after hearing this.

In his previous life, many people mentioned Wahi and would say that he "only eats cakes", but in this way, being able to eat good cakes is actually a reflection of his shooting talent.

Like the huge changes after Manchester City replaced Sterling with Haaland in the previous life, it can still reflect the importance of eating cake forwards.

'Musiala has a lot of qualities, his movement off the ball, his team-mates and his innate sense of co-ordinated pace, which for a player is even more impressive than his amazing skills. However, his shortcomings are obvious, that is, he is too sticky to the ball, and often slows down the pace at times. ”

"Wahi is the opposite, his movements are very simple and effective, but he seems out of place with his teammates on the field, and his personality is a bit extreme, which is why he does not cooperate with his teammates much on the field. If he can go one step further and strengthen the connection and cooperation with his teammates, I believe his future will be brighter. ”

Potter emphasized the difference between these two young players again, and Pan Yi also secretly praised Potter for being really sharp-eyed and knowing so much about the young players under him in a short period of time.

Musiala is not to mention, his strongest is dribbling, and sometimes the team will be dragged down because of his excessive dribbling, whether it is the future Bayern Munich or the German team;

As for Wahi, his temper is indeed more ordinary. In fact, if Pan Yi hadn't brought him to York City early, this guy would have even been fired from Caen for fighting with his teammates in the locker room......

"It's up to you to craft them." Pan Yi smiled, "I'm just waiting to see you wield your Harry Potter wand and say: Arvada gnaws big melons!" ”

Porter's black question mark face: "????? That's for life! ”

——

After the win over Wrexham, York City continued to run high in the next few league games.

First, a 2-0 home win over Scenthorpe, with Baker and Armand scoring a goal each; Then after 90 minutes of hard-fought away battle, York City continued to hold on to the top of the league table thanks to a direct second-half free-kick from Marcos Alonso, beating Bolton Wanderers 1-0.

However, like York City, which has won consecutive games, Sheffield United, the "giants" of League One this season, has also shown very tenacious tenacity, and is still chasing after the same consecutive wins.

York City then visited Bellingham and won 3-0 thanks to Baker's goal and Kulusevski's brace to take three more points from the away side.

By the way, in this game, Dragon Country teenager Huang Zichang got the opportunity to play for York City for the first time.

He came on as a substitute for Armand in the 76th minute and made a couple of breakthroughs on the pitch, but unfortunately missed the goal and failed to find the back of the net.

But his appearance still attracted the attention of the domestic media in the Dragon Kingdom, and everyone said that Pan Yi might be about to bring a second Lin Liangming to the Dragon Kingdom!

However, after winning consecutive victories, York City was unexpectedly upset in the next round of the League One away game against Fleetwood, and almost failed to find any way in the face of the home team's tenacious bucket defense, but in the 78th minute of the second half, due to a handball foul by De Ligt was awarded a penalty, and finally lost 0:1 away.

The defeat in this game obviously affected the morale of the York City players, who tasted defeat again in the next league game with a 1-0 defeat at home to Northampton!

It was York City's first two-game losing streak of the season and its first defeat at home.

Luckily, Sheffield United were unable to make a winning streak to catch up on the points, with only 72 points after 36 rounds, 11 points behind York City at 83.

Fleetwood, on the other hand, rushed straight to third place after beating York City, but they also have only 67 points.

In other words, even with a poor record of two consecutive defeats, York City is still very safe now, after all, the top two in League One can go straight to the Championship!

And in the next round against Milton Keynes, Scaloni is actually quite entangled.

Because three days after this game, we will usher in the FA Cup quarter-finals on March 12.

If it is not rotated, it will inevitably affect the FA Cup;

If you rotate and you lose...... Three consecutive defeats will affect the morale of the whole team even more!

After all things considered, Scaloni decided to make some rotations in the game.

Among them, Baker and many other key players did not play in this game, but Jonathan Parkin and Huang Zichang were given the starting opportunities, Joe Partington was brought on in midfield, and De Ligt was partnered with Miles Edison in the back line.

In this game, York City was based on defense, and Milton Keynes Dons wanted to play the offense against the visitors, but they obviously didn't expect that York City, which has always liked to play offensive football, would be so sharp once they played defensive counterattacks in League One.

Just in the first half, Huang Zichang used his amazing speed to tear through the opponent's defense twice, got two goals, and then assisted Joe Partington, who was inserted in the back row, to score a goal from a distance in the second half, 3:0!

York City also ended the losing streak with such a hearty victory and announced the return of its king!

And the two goals of Huang Zichang, a young player in the Dragon Country, naturally made the media and fans in the Dragon Country climax, and even began to look forward to his performance after being selected for the national team.

However, in response to this rumor, Pan Yi said in an interview with reporters: "Now Xiaohuang still needs more time to temper and more experience in the game. As the technical advisor of the Dragon National Team, I have not recommended his idea to Mr. Lippi for the time being. In addition, I hope that the national teams at all levels will not recruit him for the time being, and his current physical condition is not very good. ”

These words immediately cooled down domestic attention to him.

This is Pan Yi's protection of Huang Zichang.

He's only just arrived in Europe and scoring a goal or two in a League One game really doesn't mean much.

If he is promoted to the sky at this time, or if he starts to be called up by national teams at all levels, it will definitely not benefit him.

Don't repeat the tragedy of the previous life!

Of course, for the British media, they are more focused on York City's next game.

That's the quarter-finals of the FA Cup, away to Swansea! (End of chapter)
