Chapter 10

This was the first time that Zhou Liran expressed his displeasure so openly, which made the team members who were used to seeing Zhou Liran always chuckle and nod a little uncomfortable. However, it was precisely because of this difference that they really understood that Zhou Liran really didn't like this title. He was not joking or joking, but he really didn't like it.

Then they stopped shouting and pushed the prepared glass trophy to the bottom of the box.

"Ritter, don't worry, we won't call you that anymore," Cocker said, then changed the subject. "But have you figured out what we're going to call you in the future? How about we help you come up with a more catchy name?"

"Endrit Carter, Zhou Liran," Zhou Liran gritted his teeth, "Are these two names not enough for you to call? If you really want to vent your damn energy that has nowhere to go, now, immediately, go to the court to practice!"

"If you really think that with me in front of the goal you don't have to worry about the defense and don't have to continue to train seriously, guess why the team still spends so much money to keep you playing? What does he want? Because you can eat, because you eat a lot? Wouldn't it be better to transfer all that money directly to me, a goalkeeper who can keep the opponent scoreless? Am I not more reliable than you? What are you still looking at? What are you still doing? Go practice!"

They were practicing ball, and Zhou Liran was practiced by the ball.

However, after a few days of training with the ball, bah, and being beaten by pain, Zhou Liran has really improved a lot compared to before. Coupled with his indestructible body, he really looks a bit "very talented".

In the morning, Zhou Liran usually trains with the team. In the afternoon, Zhou Liran usually practiced with the ball. By the time the next game was approaching, Zhou Liran was rarely hit by the ball in the team.

On Saturday 17 March, Chelsea U18s faced Watford U18s at home.

What can I say about Watford's team? The home team finished third in the Championship last season and was promoted to the Premier League this season. The Watford home team has been struggling this year, not to mention the Watford U18, which doesn't have a single player who is still capable of performing well.

Why? Because the players who performed well were transferred to the home team by Watford's head coach Boothroyd to play.

Therefore, the players of Watford U18 have become accustomed to and accepted the setting of losing the game calmly, because no one will scold them anyway.

However, accepting the setting of losing the game does not mean that the players of the youth team will give up on the court. On the contrary, the players of Watford U18 played very hard on the court, because the carrot dangling in front of them was too fresh: as long as they played well, they would be directly noticed by the head coach of the home team and play for the home team in the Premier League. The bright future was right in front of them, and there were many vivid examples around them. How could they not want to work hard?

Their defense is even worse than Chelsea U18's. Almost every player is rushing forward, wanting to score a goal to show off.

When Coker dribbled the ball into the opposite penalty area, he found that the opposing goalkeeper took the initiative to run towards Coker. Coker was stunned for a moment and then quickly passed the ball to his teammate Leopold, who then shot directly into the empty goal and scored.

Leopold was also confused. His shooting after receiving the ball was a conditioned reaction. Who could have thought that he could score directly by pushing the ball into the empty goal? It’s not impossible for the goalkeeper to take the initiative, and Ritt also took the initiative to attack, but Ritt... well, let’s not think about Ritt at this wonderful moment of scoring a goal.

Woo woo woo Ritt, he never scored a goal when he played against Ritt in the team training match! It’s too difficult, it’s really too difficult! How can someone defend his teammates so fiercely? ah?

The goalkeeper of Watford U18 is so aggressive. Their forwards and midfielders will shoot as soon as they get the ball, no matter the angle or the strength, they will just shoot directly. No matter it is a miracle goal scored by great power or a lucky goal of a blind cat catching a dead mouse, in short, with such wave after wave of goal attacks, there will always be one or two balls that can fly into the opponent's goal.

This style of play will naturally fail against a team with excellent defense and goalkeeper, but now, which Englishman doesn’t know that Chelsea’s defense is terrible and that the home team’s defense basically relies on those three goalkeepers?

Chelsea U18 is no exception, because if there are any good players, they should be defending for the home team now instead of staying in the youth team.

Of course, these are what the English media say, not all rumors. Although they are a bit exaggerated, they do reflect Chelsea's current situation.

Let’s not talk about anything else, just say that because this game is a home game and today is Saturday, they dragged their families out for a walk and watched the game. They are now sitting in the stands, watching the Watford players' continuous offensive, their scalps tingling: It's over, we won’t lose this game badly, right?

The fans didn't even dare to drink their saliva. They stared at the grass in front of their own goal with wide eyes, watched their defender intercept the ball in front of the small penalty area, watched the ball fly across the small penalty area and straight into the goal, watched their goalkeeper hug the ball... Oh?

"How many goals is this?" Roy, who was sitting in the stands, couldn't help but turn around and ask his good friend Harris who came with him, "Is this the sixth goal in the first half? Is this the goalkeeper we bought this year?"

Harris used his hands to make a telescope and looked at the goalkeeper at the goal. After seeing clearly, he turned his head and shook his head at Roy, "I know him, he is Chinese. He was not newly bought this year. It seems that he came to our Chelsea several years ago."

Roy groaned softly, "He was such a good defender last year? Then why didn't Mourinho let him go to the home team last June?"

"Then I don't know," Harris continued to shake his head, "Who knows?"

"That……"

"Oh, stop talking and watch the game. Look! He's holding onto another football!"

Roy and Harris have been friends for many years. When they were young, their two families lived very close to each other. Although they moved a little farther away after growing up, they would still make plans to watch games together.

The two have been Chelsea fans since childhood. They grew up in their parents' arms watching Chelsea's football games. They would not go to away games with the youth team, but if the youth team played at home and they had nothing to do that day, they would come to watch the youth team's game.

The game ended quickly with the two men shouting and yelling, and they turned to look at each other in shock.

Soon, Roy spoke up first, "When is the next youth team game?"

"I think it was number 24, and it was also the home court."

"Then let's do it again?"

"Great! This goalkeeper is really good. At the end of the second half, I saw that our defenders were all exhausted, but he was still able to jump so high."

“But he got hit in the face hahahaha… I felt like he was getting hit in the face in the second half, especially in the last ten minutes.”

"Look at the faces of the Watford youth team players. They shot so many times but none of them went in. We even conceded two goals."

"Ha ha ha ha……"

"Wait, um, what's our goalkeeper's name?"

"Um... it seems like he's calling, uh... something like Enli?"

@Roy: I went to watch the Chelsea youth team’s game today! Our goalkeeper Endrit Carter is really awesome! Keep the opponent scoreless! So cool! 【picture】

A whole day passed. Roy returned home in the evening and opened Facebook to see how many people were discussing Endrit with him. It turned out that there were more than a dozen comments asking if this handsome guy was a male model? Could you please @ this male model, thank you.

Thank you for the heads up? Depend on! These guys didn’t even bother to read the text he posted, they just looked at the pictures!

Roy deleted the post with a curse, then reposted the text without the picture.

Then five days later, Roy received one like and one comment: Please like each other! !
