Chapter 19

May 25th

was supposed to be an ordinary day, but it became the first monument in Zhou Liran's life.

That morning, the title of Iron Masked Superman appeared in major newspapers in England, and his name, Iron Masked Superman Zhou Liran, spread throughout England.

This afternoon, he completed an exclusive training session with the team in order to allow him to return to the home team as quickly as possible, and successfully asked coach Mourinho to take him to the home team.

Still that afternoon, coach Ben was spitting at Mourinho in his office.

"The home team's game has ended a long time ago. Which is the next game? Is it a friendly match for the club in two months? Huh?"

"Are you waiting for the next game? You obviously don't want to sign this contract. Your home team has no money. You want to be greedy for two hundred pounds?"

"You didn't tell me to take Ritter away now. He should still be the goalkeeper of our youth team!"

"Why are you all on vacation now? Did you ask Ritter to go over and show you the door? You did this and completely delayed Ritter!"

Ben Wallen was very angry. The home team Chelsea ended its final match with Everton 1:1 on May 13th. In a Premier League match, they failed to successfully defend the Premier League title. On May 19, the last game of the 2006-07 season ended, defeating Manchester United and winning the FA Cup, barely making up for the fact that the Champions League and the Premier League missed the championship. Pity.

It is now May 25th. Well-known players are still being interviewed by reporters and appearing on TV shows. Most of the players have already gone to the beach to bask in the sun and take vacations to wait for the start of next season. Ben Wallen so generously encouraged Zhou Liran to go. Isn't one of the reasons for the home team just that the home team doesn't need anyone as a goalkeeper? Even if Zhou Liran is asked to join the home team, it will be two months later.

The results of it? Mourinho actually wants to bring Zhou Liran to the home team right now!

No wonder Mourinho took the initiative to talk to Zhou Liran after the exclusive training ended. He was still standing on the edge of the court and was having fun? Ben Warren really wants to go back and slap himself!

Ben Wallen was very angry. Mourinho touched his nose guiltily after being scolded by him. He had no intention of refuting at first. After all, he deserved to be scolded for robbing other people's players, but after hearing Ben Wallen's words Mourinho couldn't bear the last sentence, "Delaying him? No, no, no, you are delaying him by letting him continue to play the game."

"What is actual combat? Let a player put himself in training The accumulation in the game is slowly transformed into various successful experiences, and let them remember this successful experience. But Ritter's current accumulation is far from enough, he needs more training!"

"How come he doesn't train enough ! "He has been training every day since he was 13 years old..."

"If he trains enough, he won't be a superman," Mourinho calmly interrupted Ben Wallen's still excited words. , "If he trains enough, I don't think he will be hit in the face by a football so often. Do you think being hit in the face by a football is a good thing? Even if Ritter's face is really made of iron, it shouldn't be "In the last ten minutes of the afternoon training, he has been catching the ball with his face. If he can jump higher, stretch his arms long enough, and react faster to catch the football, then he should be able to catch the ball

with his face." Can last longer. I don't think Iron Mask is a good name. When he can get rid of the name Iron Mask, he will really grow up and he will make great progress. Space, it would be the greatest irresponsibility for him to let him go into actual combat now."

Ben Warren opened his mouth and was speechless for a moment.

Mourinho stopped talking, lowered his head and continued to flip through the ball-fighting contract in front of him.

"Won't you have to take a vacation if you wait a few more days?"

Mourinho raised his head and smiled, "That's right, but I will prepare all training items before starting the vacation and keep an eye on him. Training. I will let Ritter play in the five club friendly games after the start of next season. If he can keep a clean sheet, then he will continue to play. I will make a substitution when he can no longer keep a clean sheet.

" He frowned subconsciously, "Zero shutout? Your demands on him are too high. He is just a newcomer..."

"You also know that he is a newcomer? Which newcomer can compete with the main goalkeeper for the starting position as soon as he comes up? Or is it with Cech? Except for being unable to play due to injury, Cech has always been the starting goalkeeper. He is now competing with Cech for the position. If I don't ask too much for him, if he can't do it, Why should I let him continue to start the game after keeping zero opponents?

"Fame? I don't care about that."

Ben Wallen said nothing because he knew that Mourinho in front of him was really ruthless. After being pressed on the bench for so long... Ben Wallen sighed softly, stopped pestering Mourinho, and turned to leave. When he reached the door of the office, he reached out and patted Zhou Liran on the shoulder, "Okay, I'll go back to work first, and you continue to chat with your coach."

Zhou Liran nodded with red eyes, knowing that this coach was here before Help him, "Thank you, coach."

Ben Wallen waved his hand and left the office. Mourinho waved his hand for Zhou Liran to sit in front of him.

"This saving bonus...are you short of money?"

Zhou Liran was stunned for a moment, but he didn't expect Mourinho to say this as his first sentence.

"Don't want to ask for money from your family?"

Zhou Liran nodded quickly, "Yes, I want to be independent as soon as possible."

"Then you can take a comprehensive test after you come here tomorrow, and then we will evaluate it based on your actual situation and daily training progress. To arrange specific training programs, by the way, your physical and mental conditions must also be taken into consideration." Mourinho said softly, "Because it is a training during the holiday, I can only apply for part of the training for you. " It's a subsidy, but you still have to get the bulk of it." "If you have to wait another two months

, then after the start of next season, I can use the team's funds to hire a coach for you, and you don't have to spend money."

Momo pursed her lips, and kept ringing the alarm bell in her heart: What is he going to do? The direction of this conversation is not quite right!

"It's up to you now. Do you want to continue training during the holidays or wait until the new season starts?"

Is this still a choice? You have made such a big deal for me before, saying that if I train well during the holidays, I will start as a goalkeeper next season, but now you are asking me to choose whether to continue training?

Zhou Liran lowered his head silently, "I want to continue training."

Mourinho nodded slightly, "Okay, I understand, then you go out and discuss this matter with your father?"

"Okay, thank you coach. "

Is it over like this?

Zhou Liran stood up confused. After going out, he looked up and saw his stepfather: Because he is under eighteen years old, he needs a guardian if he changes the contract... But does this have anything to do with what Mourinho said just now? Advise him to spend his own family's money first? Don't be too eager to be independent?

...

That evening, Zhou Liran received a phone call.

"Hello, hello? Who are you?"

"Hello, I'm Mendes. Do you need an agent?"

Zhou Liran: ...

Is this - so that's it? Or is that really the case?
