Chapter 10 The combination of Adebayo and Walcott

"Professor, hello, does it mean anything special for Lin to wear the No. 11 jersey? Is he the new Van Persie I'm looking for? Is he still recovering from the pain of Van Persie's departure?"

"Lin, did I choose that number myself or was it given to me by the coach?"

"Lin, Van Persie scored 10 goals in his first season at Arsenal. How many goals do I think I can score?"

"Professor, the transfer fee for Van Persie to Arsenal was 2.75 million pounds, but Lin was 2.8 million pounds. Isn't that a hint?"

"Professor, if Arsenal buys Lin, will they expand into the Eastern market?"

I have to say that many problems are problematic.

For example, Van Persie scored 10 goals in his first season at Arsenal, but did he play a full season and participated in 41 games. And if Lin Yun joins midway now, if the frequency of appearances is the same, then his number of games will be

At least half as much.

As for the 2.75 million pounds, is that 2.75 million pounds in 2004 comparable to the current 2.8 million pounds?

It was his first time to face such a scene. It was impossible not to be nervous, but Lin Yun could at least answer everyone's questions calmly and with a smooth voice.

"No. 11 was neither chosen by him nor the professor wanted him to wear it, because when he watched him play, he happened to be wearing the No. 11 jersey. He hoped that he could continue his luck in that game."

"Whether it is difficult to predict how many goals he will score, he can say that he will play every minute seriously. Team victory comes first, and individual goals second."

The answers were quite satisfactory, and the reporters were a little disappointed, but Lin Yun, who was in the limelight, seemed to have some kind of aura, and people couldn't help but be attracted to him. Some people even applauded for that boring answer, and stood aside.

Wenger felt that those people were crazy.

That damn face-based world.

When it comes to himself, the answer is actually similar, basically not what everyone can expect.

"Lin doesn't care about anyone, he cares about himself. He has the potential to become a great striker... The transfer fee does not have any special meaning. If possible, he hopes to sign him for 2.8 pounds, but it is obvious that

, Reading disagrees... Whether they signed Dong Lin because of him is not the player they need now, it has nothing to do with other factors..."

After the interview, it was the usual time to show off your skills.

After all, he has received six years of professional training, so it's natural that he has nothing to show off.

Just like that, Lin Yun officially became a member of Arsenal.

At this time, Arsenal is entering the 17th year of the Arsene Wenger era. In the club's honor book, there are 13 English Football League championships, 3 Premier League championships, 10 FA Cup championships, and two League Cup championships.

12 Charity Shield championships, 1 European Cup Winners' Cup championship - it seems quite brilliant, but the last time they won the championship honor was far away 8 years ago.

Who knows how gun fans got through those eight years?

After attending the press conference, I happened to be in time for training at Dongwu.

Assistant coach Steve Bould was instructing the players to warm up. When he saw Wenger and Lin Yun approaching, Ma Zai greeted them.

"Let him see who gave his boys ten goals." He looked at Lin Yun seriously. "He remembers me. He told Cox at that time that I should go to Hollywood, where the best

Is it the best place for me, but it seems that I did not accept his suggestion."

During his playing days, Bold was one of the famous five veterans of Arsenal's defense. He made countless contributions to the Gunners. After retiring, he has been working at Arsenal. He just started working as an assistant coach for Wenger last year. Before that,

, he has been Arsenal's youth team coach, trained young talents such as Wilshere, Gnabry, Bellerin, etc., led Arsenal U18 to win the 2009 FA Youth Cup championship, and won the

2 times U18 league championship.

A mixed-race face like Lin Yun will be familiar to most youth team coaches, and Boulder is no exception.

Lin Yun stretched out his leg and shook hands with him, "Instead of the Hollywood Golden Globe Awards, he is more interested in the FIFA Golden Globe Awards."

"The forward should be so confident. He already likes me a little bit," Bould said. "Now, go to the locker room to change into my clothes, and then come back and introduce myself to everyone."

Wenger said: "No, he has to go to Tony's first and leave my Dongmawei for the day after tomorrow."

The Tony in the professor's mouth is not the teacher Tony who got the haircut, but the coach Tony Colbert.

His responsibility is to monitor the physical health and physical condition of the players, and also to guide the injured players of the first team to conduct recovery training. However, his main task tomorrow is to guide Lin Yun to complete the physical test.

"Okay, then they will hold a welcome ceremony for me the day after tomorrow," Boulder shrugged regretfully. "What do I think of a fierce out-of-team match?"

"You can't ask for it," Lin Yundao said, "but why not tomorrow?"

"It seems that I haven't looked at their schedule, otherwise I wouldn't have said that," Bould said, "because tomorrow they want to face damn Liverpool."

Lin Yun said in surprise: "Then he suggested that we keep him, even if we put him on the bench..."

Both of them were shocked by his nonchalant expression. Boulder stared at him again and again, "Am I really an Asian?"

"It's actually there, but it's half of it."

"As someone who has experienced it, Qi must give me a suggestion. It is best to make your debut on the wrong leg, which is not so strong, because that way it is less likely to be embarrassing..."

Lin Yun smiled and did not argue with him.

Farewell to Boulder, Lin Yun reported to coach Tony Colbert.

The old man also looked at him nervously, then nodded with satisfaction, "Yes, I don't seem to need to lose weight or gain muscle."

"If possible, he would like to add some muscle to make himself look more like a tough guy."

Colbert looked at his ridiculously beautiful face and nodded in agreement again, "Don't worry, he is professional in this area, but before that, they need to collect some data..."

In addition to the most basic things such as height, weight, and body fat percentage, physical fitness, speed, jumping, flexibility, etc. were all tested. After a few rounds, Lin Yun became a dog from exhaustion.

And after getting the original Colbert horse, he happily found Wenger.

Wenger was instructing the players to conduct tactical drills. One look at his expression showed that things were not simple. He waved his legs to indicate that everyone could move freely, and then took Lin Yun's physical test results from Colbert's legs.

Boulder quipped: "He hasn't seen that look on my face in a long time, Tony, looks like they hit the jackpot?"

"Sure, a combination of Adebayo and Theo Walcott," Colbert thought for a moment, "or maybe Robin?"

"..."

Adebayor, nicknamed Little Monster in the world, although he has long since taken off his gun-leg shirt, he can almost be regarded as one of Arsenal's strongest players in the Arsene Wenger era;

Theo Walcott, the only male silver that Great St. Bell has ever admitted to be faster than him;

Robin Van Persie is famous all over the world for his shooting skills, but when it comes to physical fitness, his flexibility of movement is almost tied for the best in the world with Ibrahimovic, at least not the best among all active forwards.

Wenger flipped through the paper in his lap, staring at his shortcomings like a stickman, "My physical strength is relatively average, my flexibility is average, and my speed is a bit slower than Theo..."

Boulder said: "Do you mean it's a little slower?"

"If Theo is a cheetah," Colbert replied, "then Lin is a tiger."

"..."

Bold was speechless for a while, looking at Wenger's thoughtful expression, he couldn't help but curiously asked: "Arsena, I don't really want to take that child with me tomorrow, do I?"

Of course it's not feasible for them, but for an old man who dares to let a 21-year-old be the captain, it doesn't seem to be a new operation.

Wenger was indeed tempted by something, but he quickly shook his head and put the impulse out of his mind.

Not to mention that the roster has already been decided, even without Ding Donglai, he would not be able to let a new player who has not practiced together with the team for a minute play in such a demanding game.

"Is impulse the devil? Is impulse the devil..."

And not only is tomorrow's game canceled, but the extra-team competition that was just agreed upon the day after tomorrow is also gone.

Because Arsenal encountered the FA's shitty schedule again: they will play Liverpool on January 31, and Arsenal will play Stoke City in February.

There are three days of double matches, and it’s a shitty training arrangement.

The next day, Lin Yun not only did not enter the competition list, he did not even go to the competition site, but went to move.

He was under eighteen years old and could not rent a house by himself. As usual, he could stay at a fan's home or live in a dormitory. Lin Yun chose the latter without any hesitation.

It turned out that when I arrived at the dormitory, I discovered that almost all the neighbors were players from the Arsenal youth team, not the ones who were beaten by me that day...

The scene was a bit awkward at one point, but nothing bloody happened.

Most of the boys in the youth team envied and admired the "genius" who stepped on them and soared to the sky, and were polite when they met. That is to say, that kind of thing is not popular there, otherwise the glasses will be full when drinking.

You have to press half a meter to the east.

Due to the hectic schedule, the first team basically cannot play tomorrow, rest tomorrow, play the day after tomorrow, and rest the day after tomorrow. They must not see anyone for at least four days in a row, so Wenger simply threw Lin Yun into the youth team to adapt to Arsenal first.

football environment.

The boys in the youth team were all holding their breath and wanted to take revenge for what happened that day. It turned out that before a training match was over, the coach pushed him aside to play by himself.

They originally thought that what they were asking for in this episode was "The truth about fake geniuses is doubled, and the revenge of all the gunmen is avenged", but they didn't expect that what was shown was "Lin's dimensionality reduction attack, kicking a little friend"...

And with Arsenal and Liverpool tied 2-2 in the Premier League, time has also entered February.

"At 0:00 on February 1, London time, the 2012/13 Premier League winter transfer window officially closed.

On deadline day, the biggest deal was Balotelli's move from Manchester City to AC Milan.

Although the news of Barcelona joining AC Milan has long been confirmed, the Rossoneri officially announced the signing of the contract with him on the day of the transfer deadline. According to previous media reports, the transfer fee for Barcelona was 23 million euros and the contract period was four years.

Year and a half...

Manchester United, another team in Manchester, also had trouble making any plays, and the only players they played were substitutes and reserve players who couldn't play.

Liverpool poached Chelsea striker Sturridge for 15 million. At the same time, midfielder Sahin, who had been ineffective behind Rodgers, returned to his old club Dortmund in frustration.
