Chapter 575
Odegaard thought about it and clenched Lin Chen's jersey in his hand.
"My goal is to grow into a midfielder as good as him in the future. I want to get more playing time, but before that, I will work hard to improve my abilities!"
When Odegaard said this, his eyes were fixed on Lin Chen.
In this game, he watched Lin Chen's performance intuitively and closely, including how to handle the ball, how to pass the ball, when to choose to dribble past opponents, and when to seek cooperation. Lin Chen's control of timing and rhythm on the field amazed Odegaard.
In the future, he will follow Lin Chen's example to improve his abilities and wisdom on the court!
Three days later, there was another European Cup qualifier. The opponent was relatively weak and was not at the same level as Spain's overall strength.
Therefore, Hierro made a comprehensive rotation, and Lin Chen and Rodri were allowed to leave the national team early and return to Liverpool.
This is Klopp's request, as he is worried that his two capable midfielders will be injured.
Whenever the national team reaches a major competition stage, players who have left the club will always suffer various injuries, which will pose a threat to the top clubs in coping with the tight schedule.
Fortunately, all the Liverpool stars who played for the national team returned intact!
Since the next game will not start until March 3, when Liverpool will face Chelsea in the Carabao Cup final, Liverpool players have plenty of rest before that.
Lin Chen spends most of his time every day watching movies with Maria, or playing passing games with Rodri in his back garden. The stingy guy would come out to make trouble from time to time.
Under the careful care of Lin Chen and Maria, the stingy guy grew bigger than before and started to become more mature. He seemed to understand human language and often helped Maria pick up express deliveries.
On the sixth day after returning to Liverpool, Lin Chen and Rodri were walking in the garden, discussing who made better barbecue.
"It must be Vivian's. Her cooking is better than Laura's." Rodri actually supported Vivian, which made Lin Chen worry about both Firmino and Laura.
Suddenly, Barnett walked into the yard.
Dolores greeted the two and immediately went to find Maria and Laura. The three of them now enjoyed sitting together and chatting.
"Dine at your house tonight. Ask Maria to prepare more good dishes instead of always ordering takeout."
Barnett raised the dry red wine in his hand. It had been a long time since he had a drink with Lin Chen.
When Rodri heard that there was a meal to be had, he naturally agreed with both hands!
"By the way, I have a piece of gossip. There is a private golf course for sale in the western suburbs. It covers an area of about 30,000 square meters. After it is purchased and renovated, it can be turned into a nice small golf practice range. It is very popular among wealthy businessmen."
"How about it, are you interested in playing with me?"
Barnett raised his eyebrows at Lin Chen. He had spent a lot of time to find out about this opportunity. This kind of finished golf course is rarely sold.
"A golf driving range?"
"What's the point of me playing this? I don't know much about golf."
Lin Chen didn't hear clearly at first. He was wondering whether to have fried steak or grilled prawns in the evening.
After Barnett emphasized it again, Lin Chen understood that Barnett was not asking him to play golf, but to become the owner of a golf driving range, which was an investment.
"Do you know why rich people like to play golf?"
"Every swing is calculated with money, and every hit is not a sign of accuracy, but a symbol of their status and financial strength. This may be why golf is so popular among the rich."
"Personally, I think it's because on such a large golf course, when they play one shot at a time, little by little along the route until they reach the end, they will feel like they have conquered the entire golf course."
