Chapter 24

How to become an excellent goalkeeper?

How can you prove that a player is already a good goalkeeper?

"Physical fitness?"

Mourinho looked up at Zhou Liran in front of him with his notebook, and then without hesitation put a check mark behind this line.

During the observation training in the past few days, Mourinho sighed countless times in his mind that Zhou Liran in front of him not only had a face made of iron, but his whole body seemed to be made of iron, strong and durable. Combining the past information of the youth team, Mourinho can confirm that the 17-year-old boy in front of him has the excellent physical talent that many players dream of.

"Basic skills?"

The right hand holding the pen slid down to this item. Mourinho once again made a check mark without hesitation, and raised his hand to write a note below.

[Started goalkeeper training at the age of 13. He has solid basic skills, delicate footwork, excellent dribbling, clean and crisp pounce techniques, and a keen sense of smell in front of the goal. It is necessary to continue to strengthen endurance and reaction speed training, but you cannot only train these two items. Basic training must be practiced every day. ]

After the first two items, there is the "character" option that Mourinho values ​​​​very much. At first, he made a check mark, but after he held the tip of the pen and thought about it for a while, he used the pen to paint out the previous check marks. Black, put a question mark next to it again.

An excellent football player must not be irritable, flamboyant, or explosive at the slightest sign. He is the last line of defense on the court. He must remain calm at all times and concentrate on the game no matter what happens on and off the court. If the referee does not blow the whistle for the end of the game or the timeout of the game, then he must be honest. Standing in front of the goal, guarding against the football that may rush towards the goal at any time.

Mourinho previously ticked off Zhou Liran's character because whether he has signed a new agent these days, is being chased by reporters for interviews, or is being taken to and from work in a high-profile manner by him, Zhou Liran will always be that kind of person. Mourinho was very satisfied with his calm look, so he made a check.

But - it's also possible that this child has a strong receptive ability and doesn't show his joy, or maybe he is pretending that he has a good personality?

But no matter which one it is, you can always tell if it's a mule or a horse when it's out for a walk.

Mourinho quickly went through the remaining options, then put the pen and paper in his hand on the table, "I already have an idea about your training plan for the next two months of vacation. I will help you in the next few days." You write a training plan, and I will give it to Mendes directly and ask him to arrange people for you."

"

No," Mourinho waved his hand and continued: "After I finish writing the training plan. You should rest beforehand. By the way, Mendes will come to pick you up to meet someone later. Just follow him directly."

Zhou Liran's style was to nod directly, but he could probably guess what he was going to do when he nodded directly before. He knew who he was going to meet, but now that Mourinho suddenly said this, Zhou Liran really didn't know.

"Coach, who are you going to meet?"

"You'll know when you get there."

Zhou Liran: ...

My lord is really annoying.

I really don’t want to admit that I was once such an adult.

Zhou Liran left the office and went back to the locker room to change clothes and then looked at the time. It was three o'clock in the afternoon. By the time Mendes drove him to an indoor football field, it was already four o'clock in the afternoon.

"I have rented this indoor football field, and you can all train here in the next few months." Mendes bent down and picked up a football from the cart and threw it to Zhou Liran, "Do you want to try it now? "

Zhou Liran caught the football and held it in his arms, saying "33 Binding" in his mind, but he said the exact opposite, "Don't you want to see someone? I'll wait for him to come over first."

"Is that okay?" Des smiled and nodded, "Then you sit here for a while. There are drinks and other things here. If you want to drink, you can take it. Then I will pick up that person first."

"Okay."

Zhou Liran watched. Mendes left, turned around and took a bottle of mineral water in his hand. However, he did not unscrew the cap of the bottle. Instead, he placed his hand on the cap of the bottle, preparing to wait until he heard the sound of someone coming again. Unscrew it and take a sip of water.

When he raised his head and looked at the man whose name Mourinho and Mendes had concealed, who might be a well-known player or a well-known coach, he spat out a mouthful of water in an exaggerated way to show his shock - he didn't quite He is good at expressing these, so he inevitably needs to use props.

After an unknown amount of time, there was a noise outside, and Mendes's voice rang out immediately.

"Ritter, look who's coming?"

After hearing the voice, Zhou Liran immediately unscrewed the water bottle and took a sip of water. Then he lowered his head and looked at Mendes who was walking towards him and who was following him. of a man.

The person was wearing clothes and pants that could be seen everywhere in the streets of Britain. He also wore a black hat that covered most of his face. Zhou Liran did not recognize who he was at the first time. When the person came to him, he pulled off the hat and raised it. Lifting his chin, Zhou Liran's brain buzzed: This face, this little curly hair, a traitor!

Ah, no, no...

Zhou Liran quickly swallowed the water in his mouth and decided not to act surprised. He stood up directly and extended his hand to the visitor, "Hello, Ronaldo, nice to meet you."

Cristiano Ronaldo, in the future Cristiano Ronaldo in the media's mouth is now Ronaldinho, a frequent visitor in news media reports, and the protagonist who set off a bloody storm in the entire British football world after last year's World Cup incident.

At that time, he was not the starting goalkeeper, and he never cared much about these things, but even so, he could hear the voices of people around him complaining about Ronaldo anytime and anywhere. His teammates were okay, and he just took them to training and stopped complaining. But when he went home, his stepfather, Mr. Carter, also drank and cursed Ronaldo, which made Zhou Liran a little overwhelmed - Mr. Carter not only scolded, but also sought approval from Zhou Liran, a professional player, to confirm that Ronaldo was What a damn traitor, he doesn't deserve to be at Manchester United!

God, Mr. Carter is obviously a Chelsea fan, otherwise he would not send his cheap son to Chelsea youth training... In front of the World Cup, no matter what the reason is, it is true anger, fanning the flames, or just following the trend and swearing. , in short, all the media and fans are on the same front.

Before reaching this age, Zhou Liran didn't think it was anything when he saw the rumors on the Internet. He would even downplay and think about who had never been scolded. But in this era, he is still an Englishman. If he doesn't curse a few words, his registered residence will be suspected, then... In short, I can only say that, really, the words "turbulent and bloody" are light words.

"You'd better be really happy." Ronaldinho twitched his lips indifferently, walked onto the court, raised his foot towards the goal and fired a shot, "Iron-faced Superman? You'd better be really happy." "

Zhou Liran: ...

Oh, the English are taking a big blame.
