Football: I can see player entries.

Chapter 247 Systematic Training Methods

Rafael, 18 years old, plays as a midfielder.

As a native of Burton, he joined Burton's youth team when he was ten years old.

Although his performance was never particularly outstanding, he still made it into the youth team.

He usually plays as a substitute attacking midfielder or central midfielder in the youth team.

He originally had little expectation for his football career, having been born in a small town and raised in a small team.

Despite not being particularly talented, his goal has always been to become a key player for Burton.

Until recently, Burton was promoted one rank per year.

League Two, League One, Championship, Premier League...

Last season, they even defeated Chelsea, who were also performing well, to win the FA Cup.

So, he was confused.

I always feel that the simple goals I set for myself have suddenly become much bigger.

Two years ago, Quinn, who was also a key player in the youth team, suddenly became a key player in the first team, which gave Rafael a slight boost.

Because the other person is very similar to him, and is not the most talented one.

As a result, they became an indispensable main force.

But he soon tragically discovered that his position overlapped with that of his idol.

Other established players can't take Quinn's place, so will it really be his turn?

And even in the youth team, there's someone ahead of him who consistently performs better...

The beginning of a struggle to pursue a dream.

He was suddenly excited when he heard that there would be special training sessions in groups this month, and that three outstanding players could be promoted directly to the first team.

The team's head coach will be watching the entire game; this might be his opportunity.

Since they've split into two teams, I'll definitely be the attacking midfielder on one of them.

However, after learning about the player roster, he immediately became depressed.

"This is not fair!"

"The best players are all in Group A!"

"We're definitely going to get utterly crushed!"

As a substitute, he was assigned to Lehmann's team in Group B.

Group A consists of their main players who were chasing points in the league last season.

Not only Rafael, but almost all the reserve team players looked dejected.

"Guys, quiet down."

"Let me say a few words."

Seeing their state, and noticing Lyman looking somewhat helpless, Li Yanqing decided to lend them a hand.

"As you all know, most of the people here are substitutes for the other side."

"But this allocation makes a lot of sense."

"If the two groups are more evenly matched, will you still only be able to play second fiddle to the better players?"

"Is being a supporting character always what you want?"

At this point, Li Yanqing glanced at the still bewildered players.

They certainly don't want to be mere supporting characters forever.

But in front of their teammates whom they spent every day with, they had little desire to win.

The skill gap is too large, and it's a friendly match, so it's impossible to fight as hard as in the finals...

"What I mean is, this is a great opportunity for you to showcase yourselves."

"Everyone knows you are weaker."

"including me."

"That's precisely why you have even more reason to win, isn't it?"

"If I just accept my fate like this, I'll never have a chance to be promoted to the first team in my lifetime."

"Do you prefer being a dockworker to football?"

"A porter? Absolutely not!" Raphael was the first to jump up.

Everyone knows that it is the poorest place in all of Burton, and these people came here in search of a way out.

Nobody wants to be trapped in a place that smells of fish, is dirty, and messy for the rest of their life.

The parents had to stay there for their sake, and their job was to take the parents somewhere else.

“Coach, nobody here wants to go to the dock.”

"But how can we bridge the gap in strength?"

"Simple, just listen to the coach." Li Yanqing was finally satisfied; he needed the players to show this kind of attitude.

"In my opinion, as long as you are willing to obey."

"At least two of the three first-team spots will be taken by Team B."

"All you have to do is trust us and work hard."

"If you've already given up, then pretend I didn't say anything..."

"No, no, what should we do, Coach?" It was clear that the children were quite reluctant to go to the dock again.

At this moment, they all looked at Li Yanqing expectantly.

They know this coach has produced young players like Quinn and Murphy, and now they hope the same thing will happen to them.

“Your head coach is him,” Li Yanqing suddenly pointed to Lehmann.

The latter was stunned on the spot.

What's going on? Didn't you want to go up and give a speech?

Why bring him up at the climax?

Does he seem like the type of head coach?

Fortunately, Neville came to his rescue in time.

"The head coach is in charge of the tactics; he will decide how you deal with Group A."

"As for what happens off the field, I'll handle that."

“We have a new set of training methods, with different training content for each person.”

"All you need to do is complete your tasks and then follow the head coach's instructions on the field."

That's all, nothing else.

"A new training method?" Raphael admitted that he was tempted.

"Can I improve faster than the other person?"

"If we could, we would all do our best."

If these coaches aren't lying, then this is indeed a good opportunity for him to break into the first team.

This might be the only chance.

In two years, he will turn twenty and then he will have to say goodbye to the youth training team.

If I can't find a team to play for...

Incredible.

"Then let's get started now, go to the court and warm up."

"Then, based on your location and technical strengths, we will arrange training!"

At this moment, Naveen seemed more like the head coach of Group B than Lehmann, and under his leadership, the players quickly swarmed out...

"Li, you didn't tell me any of this beforehand!"

What training methods?

"Also, how can these players compete with Group A?"

"You've witnessed Li Yichuan's strength!"

Lyman was clearly caught off guard and was slightly dissatisfied with the situation.

"If I had told you in advance, you wouldn't have achieved this effect."

"Don't you aspire to be the head coach?"

"This is a good opportunity to practice."

"Your players will be trained by me and Nave, and all the data will be given to you."

"All you need to do is use the right tactics to beat Group A."

"I've already considered things very carefully for you!"

Li Yanqing looked completely innocent; he had done all the work for Lyman except for tactics and command.

"As for the training results, you can completely trust Navey."

"You know what this kid is capable of..."
