003 Am I the villain?
Zheng Yaxin took the form and was stunned for a moment.
According to the usual routine in football novels, the trial assistant usually laughs three times at this time, and then looks at him with disdain, laughing at a high-minded mocking remark such as "The Chinese kid from the football desert also wants to play professional football, joke", "Can yellow people play football" and so on.
Why doesn't this youth assistant play according to the routine?
Zheng Yaxin glanced at Dennis Roquecal out of the corner of his eye, and confirmed that the latter had no intention of mocking him at all, so he pouted, walked to the side regretfully, and sat down on the table to fill out the form.
Soon, more than 100 players who had come to sign up for the tryout had all filled out the form, handed it to Dennis Rookkar, and arrived at the first tryout venue in twos and threes.
A tall coach has been waiting here for a long time.
It's Arsenal's head of academy, Mertesacker.
He was wearing a training suit with a whistle in his mouth and was communicating something with his assistant Dennis Roquecal.
It seems that Mertesacker is going to go out for a trial today.
Everyone exclaimed excitedly, congratulating themselves on their good luck today.
At this time, Zheng Yaxin saw Dennis Rockkal pointing at himself and whispering to Mertesacker, and suddenly his heart was alarmed, and he said in his heart, "Come on, you guy endured until now, and finally couldn't help showing his fox tail, and you still want to sneak and mock me?" Hmph~ Let me listen, what are you mocking! β
Thinking like this, Zheng Yaxin suddenly erected a pair of ears and listened carefully.
I heard Dennis Roquecal whisper to Mertesacker: "Boss, there's a Chinese here, playing in the goalkeeper position, you see... Are the trial conditions relaxed? We haven't had any Chinese players at Arsenal yet. β
Mertesacker frowned, "Chinese players? Not... That's a big market of 1.4 billion people, well, the trial conditions have to be relaxed, Carl, your idea is very good, this month's performance plus a penny. β
"Okay boss, I'm going to get busy."
Dennis Roquekar deliberately glanced at Zheng Yaxin, nodded, and walked quickly.
Zheng Yaxin: ???
Are Chinese players so popular?
How can you let Arsenal, who have always been known for their strictness, relax their standards just to get me through the trial?
This... How is it completely opposite to what is written in football novels?
It's hard for me to do what you look like!
Forget it, let's try it out first.
Zheng Yaxin sighed.
Although it seems that everything is in his favor at the moment, he is convinced that the villains will definitely jump out.
More than 100 young people of the same age stood aside, everyone looked at Zheng Yaxin with amazement, and exchanged words with people they knew well, and they talked about it.
"This guy is so tall, he can go play basketball."
"He's got a long arm span."
"I just saw his profile, he's Chinese......"
"Wow, Chinese are all local tycoons, buying and buying all over the world, and the Chinese owner has even bought the teams in the Premier League, La Liga, and Serie A." How did he choose to come and play? Instead of going home to inherit the family property? β
"Perhaps, he doesn't have that much money at home?"
"How is that possible? I know a little Chinese, and I often go over the wall to watch Chinese football forums (8 broadcast straight), where there are millionaires per capita. I heard from the people in the bar that in China, people who don't have assets of more than one million can't afford to play football, and the annual tuition fee of a football school alone is more than 100,000 yuan. β
"Hey~ So, this guy is still an invisible rich man? I'm so envious, I have eight brothers and sisters in my family, and I'm so poor..."
ββ¦β¦β
Zheng Yaxin listened to the talk of the players around him, and a sense of pride arose.
Originally, he thought that when he was in the Wolves team, everyone was polite to him because the boss was Chinese.
Didn't expect to be anywhere else. The image of Chinese Americans is also very good.
Today's China has long stood on top of the world, with a total GDP more than six times that of the United Kingdom, and in addition to per capita GDP, it is far away from the United Kingdom in all aspects.
The little British have no capital to be proud of themselves in front of the Chinese.
Of course, the pride in the bones of the British still exists, but only among the nobles and the upper class.
Ordinary British and Europeans are in a posture of looking up to China, and in their hearts, the Chinese are synonymous with "hard work" and "wealth".
Zheng Yaxin has the heart to explain to everyone: they are all garbage players eliminated by professional teams, he is not superior, his family is not rich, his parents are just farmers who have contracted hundreds of acres of land in the countryside, and by the way, they raise hundreds of cattle, facing the loess all day long, and they have a hard life...... After thinking about it, forget it.
Let's try out first.
Today I'm here for a tryout, not for a family......
He was a low-key person, and his education and poor family conditions did not allow him to show off.
At this time, Mertesacker came over with a smile on his face, looked him up and down, and said with a smile:
"Hey, it's Zheng, you're really tall, and it says you're from China?"
"Yes coach, I have an English passport."
Zheng Yaxin replied in fluent English without humility or arrogance, not at all inferior and stage frightened because model Sara is a German and Arsenal legend.
"Ahem, okay, Zheng... I have to remind you that we at Arsenal have a very high standard in our trials and hopefully you will pass the trials and help you get lucky. β
With that, Mertesacker stepped aside, looked down at the stack of forms in his hand, and kept pulling out one of them, holding it in his hand, and talking to the other assistant coach.
"The positions are very uneven, all strikers and midfielders, there are less than ten defenders, and there are only two goalkeepers..."
"That's only going to come in groups."
"Just play a 30-minute 11v11 training match."
"You watch each player carefully, focus on Zheng's performance, and after the game, give me his trial report as soon as possible."
After instructing the assistant coach, Mertesacker came back to everyone, clapped his hands, divided the 22 players into two teams, put on red vests and yellow vests respectively, stood in position on the field, and after a little mention, let the referee who was called temporarily blow the whistle for the start of the game.
According to the process, the first round of trials was supposed to test physical fitness and basic football skills, and the second round was no tactical confrontation, allowing players to play freely; In the third round, there was a tactical confrontation.
However, after looking at the player profiles, Mertesacker found that most of the players on trial today were players eliminated by other teams or semi-professional players, so he skipped the first step and went directly to the second step.
Since they are not newcomers, they naturally don't need so much foreplay.
Get straight to the point.
β¦β¦
Zheng Yaxin was wearing a yellow vest and standing alone in front of the goal with gloves, silently adapting to the changes brought about by the "god-level reaction" and "full-level goalkeeping awareness", and his heart was agitated.
Unexpectedly, he started the trial as the main goalkeeper so soon, and he thought he would have to wait at least half an hour.
At this point, there are two and a half hours left in the system countdown.
There's plenty of time.
Β£2,000 in exchange.
It's worth it!
As long as you pass this round of trials and the next round of trials, you should be able to sign with Arsenal.
Although he had never played in goalkeeper before, he was well aware of the importance of the position.
Put simply, a goalkeeper who stands in front of the goal must keep anyone or anyone who tries to get close to the goal.
Standing in front of the goal, the goalkeeper can only rely on the goal. Everyone else, opponents and even teammates can't believe it β because opponents will try to break down your goal, and your teammates will occasionally teach you how to behave with own goals.
ββThe ultimate cognition of a goalkeeper.
After the referee's whistle blew, the players on both sides fought back and forth.
Zheng Yaxin stood bored in front of the goal for a while, and suddenly realized that if no one shot in the whole game, wouldn't he have zero performance?
Can you pass the audition with zero performance?
I'm afraid it's hard!
Thinking of this, he couldn't stand any longer, and suddenly opened his mouth and shouted to the audience:
"Hey~!"
"The RED players are too rubbish."
"I haven't shot a shot in so long!"
"It seems that your career dream is going to be shattered today, hahaha...!"
Hearing this, everyone was suddenly stunned, and their eyes looked at Zheng Yaxin, who spoke amazingly.
The players of the yellow team looked puzzled and didn't know what kind of wind their goalkeeper was smoking.
The anger of the RED team players burned with a visible eye, and their facial expressions were like angry birds.
"Ahh This blue pool! β
"Brothers, can this be endured?"
"I can't bear it!!"
"Give him some color and see!"
"Get him!"
"Arrogant boy, I'll shoot you cry in a moment!"
"I'm going to get ten!!"
Boom β
The RED players all went berserk.
