Football God.

"Little Santos, are you ready for a new challenge?"

As soon as these words came out, Santos immediately understood, and the smile on his face could not be concealed.

Heinrich knew Santos' answer just by looking at him, but Heinrich would not hide what he had to say.

Pointing to the seat in front of him, after Santos sat down happily, Heinrich put the pen in his hand aside, leaned on the soft sofa chair and said: "This season, Leeds United will be divided into two echelons. To participate in the game, each other's substitutes and each other's main force, in other words, I can't guarantee that you can play every game, but as long as you are healthy, I will create opportunities for you."

Santos had no objection to this, but was very happy that Heinrich could speak clearly.

In fact, within the Leeds United club, there are many players who were really introduced by Heinrich alone, but there are very few players who were invited by Heinrich himself to his home.

Santos automatically ignored that Heinrich bought one and got one free when Heinrich went to observe Diego. He has always been very proud that his husband went to Brazil and brought it to England.

This also makes Santos different from other players. Heinrich will not play tricks with him, and the young Brazilian boy does not understand those twists and turns. It is better to spread everything out.

The positions that overlap with Santos are undoubtedly Griezmann and Alan Smith.

In terms of height and strength, Santos is not as good as Alan Smith. In terms of speed, few can beat Griezmann.

But Santos has its own characteristics, which is the commonality of South American players. They are optimistic, cheerful, dribbling the ball is as simple and casual as eating and drinking, and they can turn the simple words of extraordinary into artistic body language!

In a short period of time, Santos didn't think about replacing him, even if he always thought that God was first and I was second, but that was something in the future.

Entering the first team is now Santos' goal, and Heinrich's words gave him an extra surprise: "Boss, you mean... I can go to the second team as the main force?!"

Heinrich originally thought that he wanted to comfort the child. After all, he has good abilities, and Heinrich was willing to work on him.

Hearing what Santos said now, Heinrich was taken aback for a moment, then nodded with a smile: "Yes, you are the main force of the second team, and I can guarantee you that."

In the next second, Heinrich was dazzled by the bright smile of Santos' kid.

The prepared words were useless, and Heinrich could see from the side surveillance that there was a kid named Etok wandering around waiting for Santos, so he didn’t stay any longer. He let the Brazilian boy leave early.

A few minutes later, someone knocked on the door of Heinrich's office.

"Come in."

It was Mr. Byron who pushed the door and came in, followed by Adolf, the coach of the Leeds United Youth Academy.

The biggest goal of a team's youth training camp is to provide good players for the first team. Adolf brought Jack out before, and now after he took over Santos, he knew that the kid would not stay under his command for long.

And the same attitude towards Jack, Adolf always pays close attention to every move of these teenagers. As soon as he heard that Santos was called by Heinrich, he immediately couldn't sit still, and he followed Here comes Mr. Byron.

Byron put the prepared materials on Heinrich's desk, then walked aside without saying a word, glanced at Bertram who was wearing a sculpture, and sat next to him, watching along with Bertram. to Heinrich.

And Adolf sat opposite Heinrich. He didn't notice how many people were in the room at all. The native English coach asked eagerly, "Sir, how is it? That kid Santos said the right thing, right?"

It sounds like parents are worried about their children. Heinrich can always value Adolf because he is extremely responsible for every young player.

The blond man smiled, unlike the ease with which he treated Santos, he straightened his back unconsciously after Adolf entered the door, and said with a smile: "Santos speaks English very well now, I think the effect of his learning from Gordon Some exceeded expectations.”

What I asked was not English, but the result, the result!

Can Santos enter the first team?

"However, this excellent player may not be able to play for the youth team in the future. He will enter the first team training starting tomorrow. In fact, I should congratulate you, Mr. Adolf, you have brought him well." Heinri Xi smiled softly when he spoke.

Although he was doomed to lose a strong general under his command, Adolf didn't feel disappointed at all. On the contrary, he was very happy. After all, this was his task, and he was naturally happy with the results.

He is fairly familiar with Heinrich, and he knows that as long as Heinrich nods, Santos's future road will not be too bumpy. It is a foregone conclusion, and Adolf is relieved. He took off his hat and took a sip of water. , Said: "Sir, you will not regret your decision. Santos is very good. I think there are not many Brazilian players as good as him in Europe."

"What's the good thing?" Although Santos was brought by Heinrich, he didn't know anything about Santos since then, except for watching the kid play football in Brazil.

The 16-year-old kid is actually at the critical moment of finalizing his style of play, so Heinrich couldn't wait to bring him in, and even leapfrogged him to the U17 league for training, and then he was promoted from the U17 head coach to the head of the youth training camp in Adolf When coaching, I took the second team to participate in the competition, all to polish this diamond that no one had discovered before.

Heinrich's understanding of Santos, sources and game videos, and occasional spectators at the youth training camp, his understanding is naturally not as deep as Adolf, who has taken him for a while.

Adolf did not hide his secrets, he said everything clearly: "Santos is very spiritual. It can be seen that he has put a lot of effort into football, which is the most among players I have ever seen! This kid's life is basically football. The feeling is very good, the physical fitness is also good, but it is a bit too open, and there is not much sense of cooperation."

Heinrich nodded. He knew that what he said was true. The common problem of South American players is that they like to work alone, and they have unrestrained personalities.

Those who can be restrained have become stars, and those who cannot be restrained have become ordinary people.

"Team cooperation and tactical understanding are not what I can teach him, but in the past few months, I have taught him what European football is, what is efficient instead of showing off, and he has learned very well."

These words finally made Heinrich smile, with a smile in his eyes, and the inevitable appreciation in his eyes looking at Adolf.

Some Brazilian players have become the darlings of the club because of their talents. The team tolerates and indulges him from top to bottom, which often backfires. Heinrich likes Adolf's attitude. Only by controlling the players can he really treat him well. It is also good for the future of the club.

But this made Heinrich a little curious: "Mr. Adolf, can I ask you a question?"

Adolf still had a smile on his face, apparently in a good mood: "What?"

"Why did you know that I must mention Santos to the first team after Santos came?" Heinrich was indeed a little puzzled. After all, he had never mentioned Santos to anyone, even Mr. Byron didn't even know that Cardolph's prediction was indeed a bit strong.

Adolf smiled and shook his head: "Seriously, sir, even if you didn't call him over for this matter this time, I still want to recommend Santos to you. It doesn't suit him anymore."

Heinrich was a little surprised: "Why?"

Adolf looked at Heinrich: "This season, sir, do you know how many goals he averaged per game?"

Heinrich shook his head. He only watched video clips and didn't pay attention to the score. After all, the score doesn't show much in many cases.

Adolf raised his two palms and gestured with seven fingers: "Seven, seven goals per game, sir. Now that the league has been held simultaneously in four games, he has scored 29 goals!"

...well, that sounds like a bit too much.

The youth team is actually the club's reserve force and will also participate in the corresponding league. Leeds United's second team also qualified for the professional league last season.

In the professional league, he averages seven goals per game, which is like a cheat!

Adolf continued: "This kid doesn't belong to the youth team. Sir, it's good for everyone to get him up early. He needs to go to a bigger stage to see."

There was another sentence that Adolf hesitated for a moment and restrained himself from saying.

Just after a game that just ended, the opponent's defender who had been stared at by Santos over and over again sat on the ground after the game. The 17-year-old boy cried loudly regardless of his image, which made Adolf fully understand Santos is a killer weapon, and a killer weapon that came across a level!

Especially Santos doesn't know what satisfaction is at all, he kicks when he has the ball, and scores when he has the ball, without even thinking about the result!

Heinrich and Adolf had a discussion based on the Santos game data, and it was already night when Adolf left, and Mr. Byron, who had been silent all the time, said after Adolf left: "Sir, there are indeed several The club made an offer to Santos."

"Then?" Heinrich said while looking at the computer screen, and began to check the possible formations.

"The club stopped with Mr. Mendes and declared that it was not for sale, but Santos has not made a statement."

"Understandable." With a smile on Heinrich's face, unlike the indifference of Griezmann's former agent after he became a man of heaven, Heinrich's expression is very relaxed at this moment, "Santos is here I am here because of me. Every player looks forward to his future. It is human nature. You cannot ask a player who has not played the main force to have too much affection for the club. The contract is just a contract, not a contract, and I will not hypnotize , everyone has the right to choose.”

"Sir...do you want to sell him?" These words made Mr. Byron have a bad association. The assistant coach who had gone through the trough of Leeds United before seemed to be very poor, and he wanted to hold all the players in the palm of his hand. Show it to others.

Heinrich tapped the keyboard, looked at Mr. Byron with those beautiful blue-green eyes, and said slowly with a smile as usual: "The choice is the player's right, but I also have my right."

Then, Heinrich took the printed list of the second team from the printer and pressed it directly on the table.

"The players I don't want to sell, no one can take them away."

===

In the middle of the week, Leeds United ushered in their opponents in the second round of the League Cup. The newly promoted to the Premier League through the play-offs is also an old friend of Leeds United.

Reading.

The Reading team in the away game looked very nervous. The bloody tragedy of last season was still vivid in my memory. Coach Maldermott even dismissed get out of class because of that game!

However, the excellent performance of the Reading team in the play-offs allowed Maldermott to keep his coaching position. He cherishes this hard-won opportunity. After all, the meaning of being the coach of the English Championship team is completely different from being the coach of the Premier League team!

Even if he leaves from Reading in the future, as long as he can get good results in the team and beautify his resume, the road ahead will be much easier.

Mr. Meldermott also paid special attention to the schedule. Their match against Leeds United in the first half of the season was arranged in the final round, which means that they are safe in the previous games. As long as Reading performs well, let them It's still possible for fans to forget about the big loss.

Unlucky enough to draw Leeds United in the League Cup!

What the hell!

I don't believe that there is nothing tricky in it and killed Maldermott, otherwise, why would they draw Leeds United so coincidentally!

If it is Manchester United, Manchester City and Arsenal, if you lose, you will lose. What you are afraid of is Chelsea and Leeds United!

Chelsea had a lot of grievances before, and Leeds United had just had a feud not long ago. It was hard for everyone, but what they were afraid of would happen, and they really got Leeds United!

And the moment the lottery results came out, Meldermott vaguely remembered what the blond-haired man said to him with a smile at the press conference after the massacre a few months ago.

"I am looking forward to Mr. Maldermott's team can also successfully qualify for the Premier League. I wish them well."

Well, your blessing came into effect, I didn't leave get out of class, and the Reading team also entered the Premier League, but no one knows what the result of waiting for Reading will be!

Meldermott frowned and turned around in the room. In order to prepare for the League Cup, he came to Leeds one day earlier. He thought that he would be greeted by protests from Leeds United fans, but who knew that his boss liked it? The giants' standards require their Leeds United fans to accept them indifferently when they come to their city. No reaction is actually the biggest reaction.

After studying Leeds United's games this season, Maldermott has only one thought——

Just, just don't win.

Back, can't go back.

If I dare to be conservative, my fans can tear him apart, but if I am aggressive, the memory of ten eggs is so clear...

Or, send the second team up to try it out?Even if you lose, you can call it military training, but it's not too ugly.

But at this moment, Maldermott's cell phone rang, and when he connected, he heard the assistant coach's excited voice: "Sir, the latest news! Leeds United sent a second team to participate in the League Cup! Some of them are substitute players, Reading can take revenge!"

Mr. Maldermott, who was still hesitating just now, straightened his back in an instant, and his eyes lit up.

Second team?

Everyone knows that Leeds United's bench lineup is weak. What are the two teams afraid of?

Mr. Maldermott, who was originally depressed, lifted his spirits all of a sudden. He stopped, smiled and said to the assistant coach: "Our chance has come."
