Chapter 62 The Long Story (Please add to your favorites)

Coach Casemiro once said that every player's goal should be to be the best!
Only by taking those people as our goals and benchmarks can we fully realize the gap between ourselves and them, and thus strive to improve ourselves.

Of course, this could lead to unrealistic ambitions, but for Wei Lai, it's always right to strive for it.

Set high goals, and then work towards achieving them step by step.

It's not necessarily true that you have to be playing in a top league at 16. After all, it's more common for people to be in the top five leagues in their 20s.

But ultimately, it is a goal!
Also, next year, He Chaoyue will probably be joining the Spanish Football Federation First Division, which is the third division of the Spanish football league, commonly known as the Spanish First Division!
Wei Lai believes he also needs to find a path to professional leagues!
El Niño?

At the hotel reception, a middle-aged man with a full beard was holding He Chaoyue's arm, as if he was constantly confirming something.

"It's you, El Niño!"

He Chaoyue didn't say anything, but Yang Fan, who was next to her, stepped forward, pulled the other person away, and stared at her with a wary look on his face.

The bearded man quickly waved his hand and said, "I meant no harm, I just..."

He Chaoyue finally spoke. He took a step forward, tugged at Yang Fan, then looked at the bearded man, nodded slowly, and said in Spanish, "Long time no see, Uncle Andrea!"

Andrea exclaimed in delight, "My God! I knew it was you! You look exactly the same as when you were a child! God! It's been so long, you've grown so much!"

“It’s been ten years!” He Chaoyue nodded; “How is Pimon?”

"That kid was alright, but he didn't continue to develop in football. Ever since you left, he seems to have lost interest in football!"

Andrea smiled and came closer, putting his arm around He Chaoyue's shoulder. Looking at He Chaoyue's training uniform, he said with a look of satisfaction, "I'm so glad to see that you're still sticking to playing football. You're the El Niño of our country!"

He Chaoyue immediately grinned; "Don't make fun of me, that's a nickname you guys gave me!"

Andrea pursed her lips: "Your father."

He Chaoyue: "He's working as a youth training coach!"

Andrea: "This is the best news I've heard today. It was truly an unfortunate accident!"

He Chaoyue didn't say anything. Andrea asked the receptionist for a piece of paper and a pen, and then quickly wrote down his contact information.

“I have other things to take care of. Here is my contact information. I am the general manager in Dusan. Shall we find some time to talk?”

He Chaoyue took the note and nodded: "Okay!"

After saying that, Andrea hugged He Chaoyue tightly again: "Kid, I'm really glad to see that you're still playing football!"

Watching Andrea leave, He Chaoyue's eyes flickered.

Yang Fan, who was standing to the side, couldn't understand Spanish and was completely confused.

"Old He, what's going on? Who's this bearded guy?"

He Chaoyue: "My dad's former teammate!"

"Your dad... uh... okay, I won't ask anymore!" Yang Fan immediately stopped, knowing that some things couldn't be mentioned.

He Chaoyue turned her head; "There's nothing I can't say, the past is the past."

At this moment, Yang Fan turned his head and saw Wei Lai and George walking out from the direction of the restaurant.

"Old Wei is out too, let's go take a look!"

After Wei Lai shook hands with George to say goodbye, He Chaoyue and Yang Fan immediately went up to him.

"How did the conversation go?" Yang Fan asked.

Wei Lai: "That's it. I just got a quick overview of the situation. He said he would recommend my information to various youth training programs in Europe!" He Chaoyue: "Don't get your hopes up too high. These freelance hunters cast a wide net, catch many fish, and then choose the best ones."

Wei Lai nodded; "I know, how did the talks go over there?"

Yang Fan shrugged; "Just like you, we're all freelance hunters or temporary workers, we don't have any real scouts at all!"

Everyone went upstairs together, preparing to return to their rooms.

They didn't have high hopes; they would try if there was an opportunity, or they could try to go abroad through some foreign clubs that cooperate with football schools.

This is also a way to study abroad!

In a simulated lesson, Shinji Kagawa patiently guided Wei Lai in mastering the fundamentals.

Wei Lai's progress is quite obvious. He has learned ball control, passing, and some ball-handling and dribbling moves quite well.

Of course, the key is whether you can apply these things in the competition.

"As a midfielder, composure is the most important element. You can't pass the ball blindly, and you can't pass it hastily. Midfielders have the highest frequency of passing and receiving the ball, so if you get impatient, the whole team will fall into an impatient state. The pace should be fast when it needs to be fast, and you should know how to slow down when it needs to be slow, so that your teammates can catch their breath! Relentless attacks may backfire!"

Wei Lai seemed somewhat distracted.

When performing movements, there is always a bit of sluggishness, unlike before when they were clean and crisp.

Shinji Kagawa saw all this and immediately stopped the training.

Is something bothering you?

Kagawa Shinji asked.

Wei Lai pursed his lips; "It is indeed a bit of a problem. I play a more defensive role in the team, but Coach Hairdryer said that modern football needs a more complete type of player, which means that in addition to the defensive end, I also need some other abilities."

"And sometimes it's quite frustrating. I can see some loopholes, understand the flow of the game, and know where to pass the ball for the greatest threat, but my own lack of ability prevents me from playing more freely!"

"Hmm," Shinji Kagawa nodded, understanding Wei Lai's thoughts.

"Generally speaking, in addition to passing and receiving the ball and controlling the tempo, midfielders also need the ability to advance the ball and create threats."

“Yes!” Wei Lai nodded; “But my position is too far back, so I can’t go too far forward. If I leave that defensive area and don’t retreat in time, the back line will be in danger.”

Shinji Kagawa: "Your ball-handling and ball-driving ability is indeed lacking, and your positioning too far forward is outside your job scope!"

Wei Lai: "That's what frustrates me. Sometimes opportunities are fleeting. I can see them clearly, but I'm helpless because I'm too far away from them."

Shinji Kagawa looked at Wei Lai with a smile and said, "But it's not like there's no way!"

Wei Lai suddenly looked up: "Is there a way?"

"Of course!"

Shinji Kagawa smiled and said, "These days, very few people play like this, but what do you think is the fastest way to transition between offense and defense?"

Wei Lai blinked and immediately said, "Pass the ball!"

“That’s right.” Shinji Kagawa: “A person can never outrun a ball, and the fastest way to transition between offense and defense is called a long pass!”

"Precision long passes allow you to instantly find threatening players in the attacking third from your own half, enabling a swift transition between offense and defense. This is much faster than passing and running or dribbling forward."
