Chapter 11 Speed
()
"I heard Hadick tell you yesterday's story," Fernandez said.
Zhang Yang smiled and said nothing. He thought that being a nail house is not something to be proud of. And behind this is a lot of hardships and grievances. He didn't want to think about it anymore. A man, a real man, look forward with his head held high!
"To be honest, I'm very curious about your experience. If possible, can I tell me?" Fernandez said as he sat on the turf.
Zhang Yang laughed. He had a good impression of the Marseille first-team head coach Jean Fernandez. Although he was a famous French coach, Fernandez did not put on airs. This is not to say that Fernandez was not majestic. Majesty and intentional airs were different. Zhang Yang remembered that when he went to Lyon to request a trial, the assistant coach of Lyon, the fat white man, had nostrils on the sky. He regarded himself as a clown and did not give himself a chance to try. He only thought that he was not good enough and humiliated himself as a subjective person!
"No problem, Mr. Coach." Zhang Yang nodded. There was nothing wrong with saying. He didn't feel embarrassed. Since you asked, he would naturally say it. Moreover, Zhang Yang is not sure whether he was accepted and signed by the Marseille team. He wants to seize any possible opportunity.
He is a ghost, and he just took the opportunity to tell his experiences and told Fernandez about his efforts and efforts, and his persistence in facing difficulties. He hoped to impress Fernandez.
Such a talented player who pursues his football dream and suffers all his hardships and still refuses to give up, if you don’t win it quickly, what are you waiting for?
Well, that's what he thought!
When an individual makes all his efforts, all he has to do is wait for the judgment, and he still has to use all possibilities to strive for the final good result!
At first, only Fernandez was listening, and then Pierre was attracted by the story. Other youth team coaches, including Levi, also came to listen to Zhang Yang's silent story.
In Zhang Yang's story, such a scene emerged in everyone's mind: family and friends raised money so selflessly for this 19-year-old young player to come to France just to be able to continue their football dreams and continue to step onto the green field. This young man was alone in a foreign country and suffered all his hardships. He was rejected countless times, and wanted to give up countless times, but he gritted his teeth and persevered.
After listening to the true story of Zhang Yang, the coaches sighed.
Their eyes looked at Zhang Yang differently. This young man deserves their respect. This persistent pursuit of dreams is easy to say but difficult to do.
Levi, assistant coach of the Marseille youth team, also became very good at Zhang Yang. He questioned Zhang Yang just now, not because he had any prejudice against Zhang Yang, but because of a serious work attitude.
However, at this time, Levi still had a mystery in his heart.
"Zhang, you failed the trial yesterday, why are you here again today?"
Several other people, including youth team head coach Pierre, also nodded, which is what they don’t understand, because, generally speaking, after being rejected by the team, the players will not come again, because the focus on the football field is strength after all. The coaches think that your strength has not met the requirements, so it is useless if you come a hundred times. Generally speaking, the players in the trial training know this. After they fail the trial training, they either go home in shame or go to another place to apply for trial training, so that they will not come to the same club to try their luck.
Zhang Yang looked at the youth team head coach Pierre, and his face was also a little strange, "I really want to say it?"
"certainly."
"That's because Mr. Pierre is the first of the many coaches I have met after coming to France to be fair. I think he should be a good person and will not drive me away..." Zhang Yang said with a embarrassed look on his face.
The coaches of the Marseille team looked at each other and then laughed. After Pierre was stunned, he was a little amused. He did not expect that Zhang Yang's decision was actually because of the good impression he showed.
"Thank you, Hadick, my friend, I think we want to thank you for helping the team attract such a potential player," he joked with Pierre.
Pierre also laughed. This was really amazing.
After laughing, the coaches sighed again. If, if, before, there was a club who was really willing to lower their posture and give Zhang Yang a fair opportunity to the rookie who came to the door, and truly observe the player with great care, then Zhang Yang would not be able to come to the Marseille team at this moment. Moreover, you should know that this kid came to the Marseille team for the second time to try out.
Unlike the sighs of everyone, Zhang Yang's eyes widened. He just heard clearly what Mr. Fernandez said? He said he was a potential player! Yes, he heard it correctly, that's what he said! That's to say - he is a player of the Marseille youth team?
At this moment, Zhang Yang's brain even lost the ability to think.
There is only one thought in his mind: he has become a professional player? The Marseille team is going to sign a contract with him? Is this true? This is true!
He looked up and stared at Pierre, his eyes were so serious and serious, "Mr. Pierre, are you really sure you are willing to sign me?" He did not ask the first team head coach Fernandez. At this moment, Zhang Yang has not forgotten who the head coach of the youth team is, and this is the person who truly controls his own destiny!
"Of course, how could you think it's impossible?" Pierre said with a smile. "Do you think I'm a person who doesn't say anything?"
"No! No! No! I don't mean that, I-" Zhang Yang was already a little incoherent, and he said excitedly, "I'm just so happy, haha, I'm so happy!"
Zhang Yang laughed, he looked up at the sky. The sky in Marseille was a little foggy, but Zhang Yang felt that he could feel the warmth of the sun through the fog! His whole body and mind were relaxed, and he had been forcibly suppressing and insisting on himself, making him look like a tight spring. At this moment, all the pressure was released and the spring was completely bounced off.
Zhang Yang's chest was fluctuating rapidly. He wanted to suppress his excitement, but found that it was useless. He had been working hard for his football dream and to become a professional player! For countless days, whether it was cold winter or hot summer, Isn't this the goal of training, training and competition?
Zhang Yang asked loudly again, "Coach, you are not kidding."
"No, today is not April Fool's Day." Pierre said with a smile, "But before that, we still have a small program to perform. If we pass this program, we can sign a contract."
Zhang Yang immediately became nervous. There was a mini program? What does it mean?
Could it be that there is any change of mind?
Could it be that I was so happy again? Zhang Yang began to be nervous.
"Physical examination?" Zhang Yang heard that he was going to have a physical examination, but his nervousness and worry just now disappeared immediately. What he was most afraid of was the physical examination. Although he was not the tall muscular man, he had a very good physique. When he was in the youth team of the half-way team in China, Zhang Yang was the first in every physical test! Others had to compete for the second place!
Zhang Yang has absolute confidence in his own body!
"No problem. When will it start?" Zhang Yang couldn't wait to say how eager he was to make a decision earlier. Only when he really signed the contract and became a member of the Marseille team could he really fall into the ground.
Pierre nodded and signaled physical coach Spike to come.
While physical coach Spike took Zhang Yang for a physical examination, Fernandez was also discussing what Zhang Yang would do about Zhang Yang's future.
Fernandez saw Zhang Yang's characteristics very clearly. It should be said that aside from the fast speed factor, Zhang Yang's strength is really bad, his foot skills are really not very good, and his shooting skills are also very average according to Pierre's observation yesterday. However, in today's assessment, one thing was discovered, that is, Zhang Yang's ability to stagnate the air is very strong, which gives him an advantage when heading the ball.
What satisfied Fernandez the most was Zhang Yang's speed, Zhang Yang's physique was also good. Such a player is a good player in defensive counterattack! Of course, what worried Fernandez the most was Zhang Yang's shooting skills. After all, football matches are not track and field competitions, and it is not enough for anyone to run fast. In the end, shooting skills are still tested. The most important thing is to hit the ball to the goal net!
Now, Fernandez is talking to Pierre. His idea is to put Zhang Yang in the youth team for a while and focus on training Zhang Yang's shooting skills. Given Zhang Yang's age and foundation, Fernandez does not ask this kid to become a player with superb shooting skills. However, at least, it is necessary to improve a lot than it is now to have the chance to play in the Ligue 1.
Pierre had no objection to Fernandez's arrangements, and the same was his idea. During this period, he helped Zhang Yang's system training to improve as much as possible! He knew that Fernandez was interested in Zhang Yang and would sooner or later take Zhang Yang to the first team, so his task was to improve Zhang Yang's level as much as possible and strive to reach the level of a first-team substitute. Pierre was quite satisfied.
And he will have a sense of accomplishment. Zhang Yang's current strength is very bad. If he can train such a player to become a talent, this will be the greatest praise and affirmation of his work for Pierre!
Zhang Yang followed physical training coach Spike for a physical examination.
First of all, it is a simple measurement of basic body data, including height, weight, etc. What surprised Zhang Yang was that the physical fitness coach of the Marseille team also specially measured Zhang Yang's feet size and calves circumference.
After measuring the basic physical data, Spike arranged for Zhang Yang to measure the 100-meter run. At this time, Spike himself was also looking forward to it. Just now, both the head coaches Fernandez and Pierre told him that when measuring the 100-meter speed of this Chinese guy, you should pay special attention to it, and they need exact data.
Obviously, speed is the strength of this young man!
Spike arranged for Zhang Yang to conduct five consecutive 100-meter sprints.
He recorded the results of these five hundred-meter runs on the report paper: eleven seconds one, eleven seconds three, eleven seconds five, eleven seconds seven or eight, eleven seconds nine.
When Spike pressed the timer and recorded, his fingers were trembling slightly. The young man's fastest speed of 11 seconds reached 11 seconds. God, is the Marseille team really going to produce Ronaldo? He is a physical coach, and of course he knows what Zhang Yang's speed means! You must know that the 100-meter speed at the peak of the "Alien" Ronaldo was only 10 seconds three or five seconds!
You should know that among ordinary players, those with a speed of more than 12 seconds, are relatively fast, and Zhang Yang's 100-meter speed will pull down most of these players in one second. What is the concept of pulling down one second? It means that in a 100-meter sprint, they will throw down the opponent by about ten meters far away.
