Chapter 15 The Coach's Determination [Rewards and More]
The next day, Lin Quan got up early in the morning.
After breakfast, he took his football and rode his bike to the base for training.
Werder Bremen's training base is very close to the Weser Stadium, which is a landmark building in the city of Bremen.
So even for a newcomer like Lin Quan, as long as he knows the direction of the stadium, he will not get lost.
Because the team has already gone on holiday, the club is also in a semi-holiday state.
Uncle Graves, the security guard at the base, was surprised that there were still players coming to train at this time.
"Hey, kid, are you really a player on our team?"
He looked Lin Quan up and down. He had never seen him in the team before, and he was not wearing a Werder Bremen jersey, so he was very suspicious of Lin Quan's identity.
"It's genuine. If you don't believe it, you can call the club's management, Mr. Essien, Mr. Allofs, or if you have the phone number of the club's chairman, Mr. Klaus Fischer, you can call him too."
Lin Quan stood calmly at the gate of the base and was not nervous at all when facing the security guard's questions.
Seeing that he listed out the names of several club managers in one breath and appeared calm and composed, Graves was already about 70% convinced.
However, Germans are more rigid, or to put it nicely, rigorous.
He actually called the club manager Alofs to confirm Lin Quan's identity.
Alofs had just met Lin Quan yesterday. He was very surprised to hear from Graves that Lin Quan came to the club for extra training.
So he drove over personally and took Lin Quan to the team's training base.
"That's the training ground for the youth team, this is the training ground for the home team, the locker room is over here, and this is..."
After introducing the various facilities at the training base, Alov paused and said earnestly: "It is a good thing to take the initiative to increase training, but you must be careful to control the amount of training and not overtrain yourself.
You are still young, there is plenty of time, no need to rush! "
Although he is not optimistic about Lin Quan's ability to perfectly integrate into Werder Bremen's tactical system, he admires or likes hardworking players like Lin Quan.
Especially when a player is still very young, it is a very valuable quality to be able to resist the temptation of the world outside the court, calm down, consolidate his foundation, and work hard to improve his skills.
Lin Quan nodded. After some contact, he felt that Alovs was easy to get along with.
It can be seen that he has feelings for the club, but seeing how worried he seems, the rumors that he wants to leave may be true.
In the dimension before Lin Quan traveled through time, Allofs left Werder Bremen in 2013.
That season, Werder Bremen narrowly avoided relegation until the last game. Perhaps the poor results were the biggest reason that prompted him to make up his mind to leave.
In other words, if the team's record improves this season, Allofs might not choose to leave.
But this has little to do with Lin Quan. He is just here on loan to play for one year. When the loan contract expires next year, he will most likely leave.
By that time, whether Allofs and head coach Thomas Love stayed or left would have little to do with him.
…
For a period of time afterwards, Lin Quan went to the club for training every day as usual.
The main contents of training are divided into training with the ball and training without the ball, which are some regular training contents of professional teams.
The amount of training at the beginning was not large, mainly because I was afraid of getting injured.
Later, after my physical condition has adjusted, I will slowly increase the amount of training.
After the training volume reaches a certain level, it will stabilize and no longer increase.
At his age, he is in a critical stage of growth, and excessive training will cause irreversible damage to his body.
Every time Lin Quan trained, Allofs would quietly observe on the sidelines for a while.
A week later, there was one more person on the sidelines.
Lin Quan didn't know this person, but seeing how familiar the other person was with Alovs, he had some guesses about the other person's identity.
The two men did not disturb Lin Quan's training, they just came over occasionally to take a look and chat for a few minutes.
"Thomas, what do you think of him?"
Alofs has been observing Lin Quan for two weeks and has a very good understanding of Lin Quan's technical abilities.
This is a young player with very solid skills, delicate footwork and great spirituality.
In him, Alofs saw the shadows of Xavi, Iniesta and even Messi.

The opponent seemed to have combined the strengths of these three people into one, possessing both organizational and finishing abilities.
As expected of a product from La Masia, it is indeed a fine product! Unfortunately, there is no actual combat drill at present, so he cannot verify his judgment, so he is not sure whether his judgment is correct.
So he asked his good friend and partner, the club's head coach Thomas Schaaf, to come and watch Lin Quan's training.
Schaff stared at him for a long time before answering, "His skills are very good, but he is too young."
There are many potential new stars in football, but not many of them can really make it.
Take the Golden Boy Award as an example. Players who can win the Golden Boy Award must have their performance recognized by everyone during the period when they win the award.
However, their subsequent careers were not all smooth sailing. Many of them failed to make it and were called super duper players.
For example, Anderson, the European golden boy bought by Manchester United at a high price, did not play well at all in Manchester United, resulting in this 20 million euro signing being criticized.
Anderson was at least 19 years old when he joined Manchester United, and Lin Quan is only 16 years old this year.
The risk of betting on him is probably greater than the risk Ferguson bet on Anderson.
Allofs obviously disagreed with this statement: "I don't think we can deny his ability just because he is young. Don't forget that you hold the record for the youngest appearance for Werder Bremen. If the coach at that time also denied young players like you, then would you still be able to succeed?"
"Shaf, you've changed. You've become conservative. Is it because the team's poor record has made you conservative and lost your previous calmness and confidence?"
Thomas Schaff fell silent after hearing his friend's words. He couldn't help but wonder: Is it really me who has changed? The club was still in the championship group of the league three seasons ago, but suddenly collapsed in the season before last and fell directly into the relegation team.
The situation further deteriorated last season and the team almost fell into the abyss of relegation.
This summer, fourteen players, including main goalkeeper Wiese, have transferred away, half of whom are the team's main players.
Under this situation, the team's pressure to avoid relegation in the new season is unprecedentedly huge, and he cannot afford to make any mistakes.
And he probably became conservative under such great pressure! "You're right, I shouldn't be so conservative!"
"With our current lineup, no matter how conservative we are, we can't guarantee that we can stay in the league. In this case, we might as well give it a try!"
Thanks to classmate 'I want to become an immortal' for the reward, thank you very much! (End of this chapter)
