God of Green
Chapter 37
Everyone in the youth team, including the coach and players, knows that the Alkmaar first team has not performed well this season. In addition to the weak forward attack, the midfield and backcourt also have their own problems.
This is naturally not a good thing for the first team, but for the players of the youth team, it means that they have seen the opportunity to be promoted to the first team, play in the Dutch Eredivisie, and sign a professional contract.
Therefore, the performance of the youth team this season is actually very good. It is currently ranked third in the Dutch Youth League standings. This is because the players were stimulated by the poor performance of the first team and competed to perform in order to attract the favor of the first team coach Van Gaal.
As a result, Van Gaal did not promote anyone from the youth team during the winter break, but signed three more foreign players.
It is difficult to evaluate the two defenders. After all, they have professional game experience and can fight as soon as they come.
But Jiang Xiaolin's joining did pour cold water on the players of the youth team.
How could a 16-year-old Chinese boy who had no experience in youth training for a professional team and had only played in the amateur league of the fourth division win over them, win the favor of Van Gaal, and directly sign a professional contract with the first team?
This is what the youth team players can't figure out.
They haven't seen Jiang Xiaolin's game with their own eyes. Even if someone says that Jiang Xiaolin scored five goals in a single game in amateur games or internal training games of the first team, they are skeptical.
On the one hand, they doubt whether Jiang Xiaolin has scored so many goals, and on the other hand, they doubt the value of Jiang Xiaolin's goals.
So, on the first morning when Jiang Xiaolin officially participated in the youth team training, Crofts saw that more than 20 players in the team ignored Jiang Xiaolin.
Except for the training content arranged by Freeman, which sometimes forced the players in the same group to call Jiang Xiaolin, no one took the initiative to talk to Jiang Xiaolin or communicate with him at other times.
Moreover, Jiang Xiaolin's amateurism in most technical training projects aggravated the players' disgust and hatred towards Jiang Xiaolin.
The training of players, no matter how they are trained in normal times, will eventually return to the game.
Football is a team sport, and one person cannot play alone.
If a player is boycotted by the whole team and cannot be accepted by the players, how can he play?
Seeing Jiang Xiaolin's situation, Crofts knew that he had to solve this problem.
Otherwise, it would be useless to train Jiang Xiaolin's skills on the training ground without practicing in the game.
You must know that Jiang Xiaolin is a potential new star that Van Gaal has taken a fancy to. He must ensure that Jiang Xiaolin's strength is improved and he is ready to play for Van Gaal at any time.
Therefore, at the end of the morning training, Crofts followed the method used by Van Gaal and asked Jiang Xiaolin to place 20 balls on the penalty area line to practice shooting.
And let Freeman end the training of other players and ask everyone to come and watch.
In this morning's training, Jiang Xiaolin's technical performance was really unconvincing, except that his physical fitness was beyond the reach of most people.
Now, when the head coach asked everyone to watch Jiang Xiaolin's shooting training, the players naturally murmured and talked in private, ready to come and see the joke.
According to normal thinking, if a professional player has good shooting skills, his dribbling and passing skills will not be too bad.
The same is true in reverse. Players who are good at dribbling, breaking through, and passing will not be too bad at shooting.
This is why some goalkeepers of professional teams can play as forwards in amateur competitions, and they can kill all sides and score several goals in a game.
Therefore, seeing that Jiang Xiaolin's dribbling and passing skills are very poor, everyone does not believe that his shooting skills can be that good.
Therefore, when Crofts asked everyone to come and watch Jiang Xiaolin's shooting training, everyone stood around the penalty area and watched with the mentality of watching a joke.
Including the main goalkeeper of the youth team, Elmer, he was also full of confidence.
What he was thinking was that he must give Jiang Xiaolin a warning, and it would be best if Jiang Xiaolin could not score a goal, so that Crofts could see Jiang Xiaolin's strength and send Jiang Xiaolin to U17, U15, or even U13.
As a result, when Jiang Xiaolin completed his first shot and sent the ball accurately into the dead corner at the bottom of the far post, all the players were stunned.
Including assistant coach Freeman, who was also surprised.
Although he knew more than the players, he had never seen Jiang Xiaolin's game in person, so he was not prepared for Jiang Xiaolin's accurate and violent shot.
Everyone was surprised by Jiang Xiaolin's first goal, and they did not expect Jiang Xiaolin to have such a shooting skill.
However, one ball could not tell anything, and it was complete.It could all be a lucky shot, and everyone continued to watch Jiang Xiaolin's shooting performance with a skeptical attitude.
However, the further it went, the worse everyone's face became. Elmer, who was in charge of the goalkeeping, had a hot and black face.
This was not a game, and no one interfered. With the full 20-point shooting attribute guarantee, Jiang Xiaolin was completely aiming at whatever he was shooting, and every shot went straight to the blind spot, with unparalleled accuracy.
Moreover, Jiang Xiaolin's shot was powerful and fast, making it difficult for Elmer to see the ball path before saving it.
Moving in advance to save the ball was completely a gamble on luck.
Elmer's strength level was not comparable to Sergio Romero.
He did not have Romero's quick reaction, nor Romero's rich experience, nor Romero's ability to respond on the spot.
As a result, he had almost no way to deal with every shot that Jiang Xiaolin made that went straight to the blind spot.
Except for two balls that moved in advance and bet on the right direction to save the ball, Jiang Xiaolin's other 18 shots all went into the goal.
This is probably the difference between the goalkeeper of the Alkmaar Youth Team and the goalkeeper of the Argentina Olympic Team!
They are completely different and far apart.
The goal frame hit rate is 100%, and the goal rate is 90%, which makes everyone except Crofts on the youth team training ground stunned.
Such a goal frame hit rate and goal rate are simply too terrifying, unheard of, and no one has even thought about it.
Now the players of the youth team finally know why Jiang Xiaolin was favored by Van Gaal and signed directly into the first team.
This is simply the foundation of a world-class striker!
As long as his shortcomings such as dribbling, breakthrough, passing and receiving are slightly improved and compensated, and meet the standards for professional games, he can be put in the Dutch League to attack the city!
If such a player is not signed, will it wait for competitors to sign and then use him to break the goal of their own team?
In the face of absolute strength, everyone was convinced and no longer had any jealousy.
It was completely reasonable for Jiang Xiaolin to be chosen by Van Gaal and directly sign a first-team contract!
