Vol 5 Chapter 161: Wang Xiaolei

The Chinese men's football team plans to conduct a European practice session from the end of July to the beginning of August, the purpose of which is to cope with the upcoming Asian Cup qualifier group stage. 【No pop-up window ..】
In the Asian Cup qualifier group stage, the Chinese team was divided into group e, staggered the strong teams Japan, South Korea, Saudi Arabia and other teams, and Iraq, Palestine and Singapore, this group of teams is still relatively strong Weak, there is great hope for the Chinese team to qualify.
This is an analysis of the Chinese team's qualifying situation at home and abroad.
But as the fans thought, the Chinese team was always "unexpected". In the group stage qualifiers that were held in February and March this year, the Chinese team defeated Palestine, but lost to the volatile Iraq in the country. The prospects for the Chinese team's qualifying are not very optimistic.
If the Chinese team ca n’t pass the Asian Cup qualifiers, it ’s really
shameful and big
, so the Chinese Football Association paid attention to the performance of the national team and organized this European training session. Before the Singapore game, let the national football team play against the strong European teams and experience the feeling of playing against the strong teams. When it comes time to play against a fish bag team like Singapore, there will never be any surprises?
The Chinese Football Association really attaches great importance to this training session. They have also mobilized tens of millions of dollars to play against the strong European teams.
The warm-up match agreement reached between the Chinese team and Manchester City also has funds in the name of sponsorship. The sponsorship fee is 2 million yuan. Manchester City can also get 2 million yuan in a warm-up game at its own door, which is nearly 20 euros in income. This kind of good thing is the same as a pie in the sky.
As a result, Manchester City Club and Wan Sheng have no reason to refuse.
After the agreement was reached, the domestic media made a lot of publicity, because this game is very promising. The reputation of the Chinese team in the country is not very good, but Chinese fans actually support it. Many fans scold the Chinese team, but they still watch the Chinese team's games again and again. After all, they are the football teams of their own countries. Who else can they support without support?
Manchester City is also very popular.
In contrast, Manchester City's popularity is very positive, because Manchester City hate strength, and it was the Premier League champion last season. More importantly, Manchester City's head coach Wan Sheng is a Chinese. Manchester City also has two Chinese players, Sun Jihai and Wang Xiaolei. Because of this, many domestic fans like to call Manchester City the 'China Overseas Team'. Even the reports of Salary Sports have been titled "China Overseas Team vs China Team" to focus on the coverage of the game.
The center of natural reporting becomes the player.
Sun Jihai and Wang Xiaolei are very critical players.
Sun Jihai and Wang Xiaolei are going to participate in the national team's collective training, and it is a little late to return to Manchester City to prepare for training. Wansheng feels very angry about this, but he can also understand Sun Jihai. Withdrew from the national team after training.
However, after confirming the warm-up match with the Chinese team, Sun Jihai and the two returned to the team for training together, because they will then play on behalf of Manchester City.
A domestic reporter interviewed Zhu Guanghu and confirmed the news. "They are all very good players, but now they are warming up against Manchester City. They are first a professional player playing in a European club and then a member of the national team, so they will play on behalf of Manchester City.
This is very reasonable, at least Wansheng is very satisfied.
He is not unpatriotic, but it is difficult to imagine the national team players training, will occupy the club training time, which will directly affect his pre-season preparations, naturally. It will also affect the player's preparation for the club. It is difficult to say that the Chinese team's approach is correct.
The most important thing is that the training of the Chinese team is really difficult to have any effect. That kind of training is too far away from Manchester City's preparation.
Anyway. After the warm-up match was finalized, both Sun Jihai and Wang Xiaolei became the focus of domestic media attention.
...
Sun Jihai has been used to becoming a focal point. He has become a famous star. Manchester City has his place, and the national team has his place. When he joined Manchester City. It became the focus of domestic media reports. After Manchester City played a stable role, it was frequently concerned by domestic media.
In contrast, Wang Xiaolei is different.
In fact, since he came to Europe, he has n’t received much attention. When he was in Derbyshire, he was loaned out to play in the lower leagues. After coming to Manchester City, he played the second goalkeeper and played few times. In spite of this, he still entered Zhu Guanghu ’s big list and became the No. 3 goalkeeper of the Chinese team, but as the No. 3 goalkeeper, he will not receive much attention. Even if he does not return to the national team training, not many people care After all, he belongs to the kind of players who rarely play.
But Wang Xiaolei is still very satisfied with the current situation, because he is only under 19 years old!
In the year when he first came to Europe and joined the Derbyshire youth team, Wang Xiaolei was only a little over 16 years old. After six months of training in Derbyshire, he was loaned to the lower league team. The subsequent life is training, loan, Training, loaning, his strength and experience have also increased.
It has been in Europe for almost three years. Wang Xiaolei has grown from a child to a real professional player, but in fact, he is still under 19 years old.
At this age, most European 'football geniuses' are still waiting for opportunities for young people, and he has become the second goalkeeper of the defending champion Manchester City of the Premier League and the third goalkeeper of the Chinese national football team.
The goalkeeper's position originally required a lot of experience. The goalkeeper wants to really become the main force of the strong team, he must experience a long wait. Many goalkeepers need to be 25 years old before they can sit in the top position of a top league team.
Wang Xiaolei is not yet 19 years old, he still has a lot of time.
During these times, Wang Xiaolei also set goals for himself. The first is to always maintain his state, strive to improve himself, and strive for the success of David James.
David James is almost 37 years old. The goalkeeper can always play longer than other players, but the 37-year-old is also a veteran. James is still in the state, but everyone knows that it is difficult for him to persist for too long. So there are still many opportunities for Wang Xiaolei.
As long as he can be trusted by the head coach, Wang Xiaolei can become the No. 1 goalkeeper of the top teams in the Premier League. At that time, it is much easier for the national team to fight for the main position. Then it will be like Sun Jihai, and domestic public opinion will support him. Become the No. 1 goalkeeper-the main goalkeeper of a Premier League Premier League team. Is it not yet qualified as the number one goalkeeper of the Chinese national team?
This is Wang Xiaolei's goal.
So he didn't care much about his lack of fame.
But when the attention came, Wang Xiaolei still felt different and became the focus of everyone's attention. There will always be a huge sense of achievement and honor. When Manchester City and the Chinese team are going to play, domestic media will compete with Wang Xiaolei for an interview.
After training every day, when Wang Xiaolei walked out of the club's door, there was a large group of reporters, most of them domestic reporters. There are also a small number of local journalists who also hope to conduct a brief interview with Wang Xiaolei.
This feeling of being the focus of everyone makes Wang Xiaolei really excited.
He enjoyed this feeling very much.
Wang Xiaolei experienced this feeling for the first time, he felt so beautiful, when a domestic reporter interviewed him, Wang, "I don't know if I can play, but the boss should let me go." But in fact he is still a bit I'm worried that he won't be able to play, because after all, he is only the second goalkeeper, and most of the time he plays David James. He did not have absolute confidence in whether Wansheng would let him play.
So in training, Wang Xiaolei was also troubled by this incident.
This affects the efficiency of his training and makes many mistakes in the training arena.
Diamares, Pierce and others have noticed Wang Xiaolei's situation. They reminded them again and again, but they did not play any role. At the same time, Wan Sheng also noticed that Wang Xiaolei always seemed to be distracted in training.
He is a bit strange.
Wang Xiaolei's training is still very serious on weekdays, why is this happening now? He thought of the upcoming warm-up match with the Chinese team, and he had some speculations in his heart.
In the middle of training, he called Wang Xiaolei.
"Xiao Lei. You have to be more serious in training." Wan Sheng reminded.
Wang Xiaolei lowered his head, uneasy, and apologized, "I'm sorry. Boss."
"Look up and look at me."
Wang Xiaolei raised his head in fear, and saw that the coach was staring at him. Those eyes were full of majesty, as if he could see through his heart in an instant.
Looking at the child's disturbed look in front of him, Wan Sheng's lips flicked. Asked, "It is said that many reporters want to interview you? You are now a big star."
"No ... no, boss."
"What's not?"
"Yes, yes, there are a few reporters, but I didn't say anything."
Wan Sheng shook his head and decided to say it directly, "Are you thinking about playing against the Chinese team?"
Wang Xiaolei panicked, but eventually nodded, "Uh."
"Are you worried about not being able to play?" Wan Sheng continued to ask after seeing Wang Xiaolei nodding, "Do you want to play?"
There was a fiery flash in Wang Xiaolei's eyes, and he nodded immediately, "Think, I really want to play, but that's a game with the Chinese team."
"why?"
Wang Xiaolei was still a little scared, but he did n’t dare to lie in front of Wansheng, and he could only express his thoughts, "When those people interviewed, they asked me if I would play, and I said big things. Since I said it, I can Don't want to hold back ... "
Wang Zhu seemed to have some courage, and then continued, "And I am in the national team, many teammates look down on me, they think I am young, some are jealous of me playing in the United Kingdom, and some people said in my face I ’m just lucky. If I ca n’t play with the Chinese team, they will definitely look down on me. I want to prove myself. I do n’t want to be looked down on and ridiculed.
Wan Sheng listened to these words and nodded, but he could understand Wang Xiaolei's feelings.
Although it is a hearsay, it is not so harmonious within the Chinese national team. The quality of the national players is not necessarily high. They are jealous of Wang Xiaolei playing in Manchester City.
Before Wang Xiaolei was 19 years old, he could become Manchester City's No. 2 goalkeeper. His achievements were naturally jealous, and the 'old qualification' bullied the 'young newcomer'. This kind of thing is common to all teams.
He told the truth.
In fact, Wang Xiaolei's worries are not necessary at all. Manchester City and the Chinese team, Sun Jihai and Wang Xiaolei will almost certainly play. The Manchester City club will not be able to stop Wang Xiaolei from playing, and Wan Sheng will not do that.
Wansheng also intends to increase Wang Xiaolei's appearances in the new season so that he can increase some game experience and grow up slowly.
But Wan Sheng did not give a definite answer, he said sternly, "If you continue this way, I'm sure you won't have a chance to play at that time. Do you understand?"
"If you want to play at that time, you have to complete the training tasks stipulated in the past few days, and you need to practice at the right time. Your reaction speed is very fast, and I took this point before taking you to Europe. But your shortcomings are also obvious. Whenever you come to the game, you will be a little nervous. I hope you can be calmer in the game. "
"Can you make an appearance at that time? Do you understand the performance these days?"
Wang Xiaolei nodded immediately.
Immediately he reacted and the coach gave himself a promise. The interpreter said that as long as he performed well in the past few days, he would have a chance.
Suddenly he became a little excited.
"Go, return to the field to continue training." Wan Sheng said.
"Okay, boss, I will work hard!" Wang Xiaolei had a goal and was suddenly full of motivation. When he thought of playing in the game with the Chinese team in a few days, he felt full of energy.
Wan Sheng looked at Wang Xiaolei and nodded in satisfaction.
This young man was brought to Europe by himself. He has a completely different path from his previous life in memory, so how far he can go is really worth looking forward to.
...
At the end of July, Manchester City played the first warm-up match ~ EbookFREE.me ~ The opponent was Nottingham Forest.
Wan Sheng is no stranger to Nottingham Forest. Their head coach Hasen is also an old opponent and old friend. Although Nottingham Forest suffered a relegation, Hassen still retained the position of head coach. The club believes he can lead Nottingham Forest back to the British League.
When the two teams played against each other, Wan Sheng and Hasen also stood on the sidelines and talked together.
They talked about Manchester City, Nottingham Forest, and exchanged coaching experience with each other. Hassen proposed to rent Manchester City players. Of course, it is the youth team. They ca n’t afford to rent Manchester City first team players. There is no first team player Ken. Play for the first league.
Wan Sheng thought of the ‘less promising young people’ of the youth team, let them go to the lower league to practice, and the final result with their potential is to confuse the lower league.
This is professional football.
Effort is very important, but the potential is more important. It is meaningless to work hard without the potential. Those young players are loaned out and even sold to other clubs. (To be continued.)
