Chapter 104 Annie: I just want to be quiet and be an ordinary person...
The next day, the day before the Rugby Golden Fleece competition, Gu Ran still got up early, took a taxi to school after having breakfast.
Excitement for the upcoming home game is already palpable across campus.
When Gu Ran walked on campus, he would always meet people he didn't know who would greet him friendly and cheer him on.
Many students clapped hands with him and wished him good luck in tomorrow's competition.
There is also a large group of enthusiastic and lightly dressed female fans who are desperately leaning on him...
annoying.
Gu Ran finally entered the training ground.
The training of the Bucks Steel Horns that day was still mainly based on passing and receiving cooperation and new formation drills. By the way, they also practiced the offense and defense of set balls.
After a day of rest and two days of training, the cooperation of the Bucks Steel Horns has improved a lot compared to before.
The tactical play of the Bucks Steel Horns became completely clear after two actual battles.
Before, when Olin was still there, the Bucks and Steel Horns used a style of breakthrough from the left, which was very simple.
After Olin left, the Bucks Steel Horns could only temporarily switch to the No. 9 and a half play style with Watergate as the new core.
But now, Carter directly straightened Gu Ran to the "true core" position. Although the left back was also used as the engine, the style of play with Gu Ran as the true core was full of on-the-spot variability.
This style of play is still dominated by No. 9 and a half in the early stage, giving the opponent the illusion that Minato is the core force, but when Minato is targeted, Gu Ran can find an opportunity to start, and everyone else must actively cooperate with Gu Ran's running bit to support.
Although Gu Ran can also break through from the left, under normal circumstances, a reverse-footed left back like Gu Ran is more inclined to break through halftime and cut inside, then involve the opposite defense line, and then play the ball to the opposite weak area.
The internal cut alone is several times stronger than the previous "Olin Core" tactic.
Carter called this set of tactical routines with obvious changes "selling dogs" tactics.
Watergate:……
All day today, the Bucks and Steel Horns have been rehearsing with this tactic.
Gu Ran's performance was still eye-catching, without any flaws, and the other players either failed to keep up with Gu Ran's sprint, or did not maintain a good offensive and defensive formation, causing Carter to spout wildly.
Under Carter's "assist", Gu Ran easily got 10 white training bubbles today.
The talent points for automatic exchange have also accumulated to 3!
With these 3 talent points, tomorrow's game against the Rugby School Golden Fleece team will be even more confident!
Before the game starts tomorrow afternoon, it would be even better if I could go whoring the Golden Fleece for nothing...
After today's training is all over.
Coach Carter summoned the main players and gave them a lecture:
"Tomorrow is our final match in the group stage!"
"We had one draw and one win before, and got 4 points. According to the points in Group E, as long as we draw in the end, we can qualify!"
"Yeah!!!" The players of the Bucks Steel Horns couldn't wait to celebrate.
Coach Carter immediately frowned and said: "Don't be too happy! The opponent is the Rugby School Golden Fleece team! They are regular champions of the National High School Football Championship!"
"They are very powerful!"
"Their school is the birthplace of modern rugby. Each of their players—even if they are substitute players, is physically very strong, and their sprinting, intercepting, and sprinting abilities are the best among all high school students!"
"So I ask you to be fully mentally prepared! Tomorrow will definitely be a fierce battle!"
"As I said before, the Rugby Golden Fleece team may not send their main players to play, because they look down on our 3 points."
"This is our best chance!"
"I don't want much! Just a draw!"
Having said that, Coach Carter looked around with sharp eyes: "Tell me, do you have confidence?"
"Yes! Coach! We are confident!"
"Dry the Golden Fleece!"
"Advance to the top 16!"
The players of the Bucks Steel Horns raised their arms and shouted in unison!
Gu Ran's blood was also boiling, and he shouted along with him.
It doesn't matter whether you are in the second grade or not, the important thing is...you must qualify for the group stage!
Coach Carter nodded in satisfaction, "Very good, take a good rest after going back tonight, don't think about messes before going to bed, think more about the tactical drills in the past two days-disband!"
"Yes, coach!"
"Gu, come here." Coach Carter called Gu Ran to his side.
"Coach, what's the matter?"
"Gu," Coach Carter said softly, "How is your rest recently? How is your physical reserve?"
Gu Ran immediately said: "Coach, my physical fitness is full, and my state is completely fine."
Coach Carter asked again: "The last two days... haven't you been in love?"
Gu Ran quickly replied: "No! Absolutely not!"
Coach Carter nodded in satisfaction, "That's good, your physical fitness is your biggest shortcoming at present. If you need, I can help you contact Teacher Maria and ask her to work overtime tonight. Get some physical therapy."
What the hell!
do not!
Something will happen!
My body, he is not under my control!
Gu Ran hurriedly said: "No need for a coach! My physical fitness is really fine! Don't bother Teacher Maria to work overtime."
Coach Carter said: "Gu, you are now the core of our Bucks Steel Horns team. You have this privilege. Don't be embarrassed to ask for it."
Gu Ran said: "Coach, don't worry, when it's time to make a request, I will make it myself."
Coach Carter nodded, "Okay. Gu, to be honest, you are a good seed. I knew it from the first moment I saw you. Of course, if you can help the Bucks Steel Horns qualify for the group and score 16 Strong, then you have the opportunity to take a step further on the road to professionalism. Do you understand what I mean?"
professional path?
Why did the big sprayer coach suddenly bring up this topic?
Gu Ran was stunned for a moment, then shrugged helplessly, "Coach, I'm Chinese, you know, I'm stuck with the labor certification in your country."
Of course Gu Ran wanted to become a football superstar.
But the reality is that if you don't solve the labor certification, you can't even think about playing professional leagues in the UK.
In the next few years, it is simply impossible to expect the group of national team players to kick up the FIFA rankings.
Things like labor certification cannot be solved by Gu Ran alone.
Carter showed a mysterious smile, "Gu, if, I mean, if, if there is such a club that can help you get a labor permit, would you be willing to sign with him?"
Gu Ran's eyes lit up, and he said excitedly, "Of course! Coach! You mean—"
Carter cleared his throat, "No, I'm just saying if."
gan...
This made my blood boil, and it turned out to be an if.
Gu Ran was powerless to complain.
Carter added: "No matter what, what you have to do now is to play football with all your heart and soul, release all your own potential to me, and score more than 8...8.5 points in every game-scoring 16 points. Being strong is the first step for you to prove that you can play in the professional league."
So, the implication is that...
There is a second step behind?third step?the fourth step?
Coach Carter, aren't you PUAing me again?
Alright, alright, I will continue to cooperate.
Gu Ran had a realistic and firm expression on his face, "Coach, don't worry, in tomorrow's game, I will turn my golden fleece into a silver bald man!"
Coach Carter almost couldn't hold back his laughter!
"...Ahem, um! Good!" Coach Carter tried to keep a straight face, "Go, go home early and rest."
"Yes! Coach!"
Gu Ran picked up his backpack, turned around and left the training ground.
Coach Carter turned around and chuckled, "Silver bald...hahaha, this kid! He really looks like me when I was young!"
……
Back home that night, Gu Ran sat by the swimming pool and soaked his feet after eating, and felt the massage of kissing fish and crisps by the way.
Not to mention, it's quite cool to have a large group of kissing fish biting their toes.
Just when I was comfortable, the phone rang.
Gu Ran picked it up and saw that it was a call from an unfamiliar number.
Is it for a shared lease?
Gu Ran quickly picked up the phone, "Hello? How are you?"
"Hello..." The girl on the opposite side was obviously taken aback, "You, are you a boy?"
"Yes."
"I thought the renters were girls."
"If you mind, then forget it." Gu Ran didn't mean to force anything.
The girl on the phone giggled, "No, no, I don't mind. On the contrary, it suits me! I'm French, I'm here for tourism, I really like the dune beach environment, living in your big house must be It would be a very pleasant thing. But your rent is too high, and if it can be reduced, I think I will be happier."
Are you happy, none of my business?
Gu Ran frowned slightly, "How much do you want to reduce?"
The girl on the phone said with a smile: "How about a half discount? Of course, it would be best if I could get a full exemption. I can use other methods to compensate. I...maybe did it."
The tone of the last sentence is a bit off.
Damn... she wants to use that way to pay off! ?
Who am I now?
Gu Ran immediately said seriously: "I'm sorry, miss, I'm a decent person, I only recognize money but not people, you misread people, so please don't call me again."
"Oh... how about I show you my picture first?"
Snapped.
Before the other party could finish speaking, Gu Ran hung up the phone directly.
Damn, what grade, you still want to prostitute me for nothing? ? ?
Gu Ran threw away the phone, and continued to enjoy the service of Kiss Fish.
……
On the other side, in a small hotel.
A female assistant in professional attire put down the phone and said to the woman sitting in the dark with a big hat covering half of her pretty face: "The investigation is over, the landlord of the sea view villa is a boy, but it sounds like Very honest, he said he only recognizes money but not people."
"A boy?" The beautiful woman said slowly with a melancholy voice: "This is a bit troublesome, but if he is honest, then he can be considered. But...be safe, try another phone tomorrow, and send him some information by the way." A picture like that."
"But, you can obviously stay at the Ritz Hotel! Why do you have to go to such a remote and strange place to share a room with a stranger! What if he finds out your identity and discloses your information to a tabloid reporter? But what can I do, my Miss Anne!"
"It's okay, just prepare a non-disclosure agreement for me, the big deal is, I'll just pay him more."
The beauty known as Miss Anne slowly looked out the window, and said melancholy: "...I just want to be quiet and be an ordinary person now."
