"Hahahahaha!"

"Lao Wu, you should feel relieved now!"

"The time for the competition is imminent. If we let them adapt and adjust slowly, it will definitely be too late!"

"So it's better to let these young people solve the 'problem' themselves!"

At this time, head coach Gao Qiang said happily to Wu Yuandong.

At this time, Gao Qiang and Wu Yuandong were standing in a corner of the training ground, quietly watching the performance of these young people.

"Haha, yes, Director Gao!"

"Now I am finally relieved!"

"I didn't expect that brat like Shen Xiao could integrate into the team so quickly!"

Wu Yuandong watched Shen Xiao chatting happily with his teammates on the court, and his face was suddenly filled with smiles.

"That's right! This young man Shen Xiao is indeed a good prospect!"

"As soon as he entered the team, I gave him a 'hard problem' and told him in front of everyone that he should be the main forward and captain."

"I didn't expect that he would resolve it in such a short time. It's really amazing!"

"Shen Xiao is indeed the best choice for team captain!"

"He has a unique personal charm! Shen Xiao not only impresses everyone with his skills, but he also has strong cohesion among the team members!"

Gao Qiang nodded to Wu Yuandong. At this moment, he looked at Shen Xiao in the training ground and couldn't help but praise him.

"Director Gao, I won't dare to praise him like this in front of him in the future!"

"After all, Shen Xiao is not that old. I'm afraid that young people will not be able to help but boast and become impetuous and proud!"

At this time, Wu Yuandong quickly "calmed down" and then said to Gao Qiang.

"I know! Lao Wu, you care about the children, but I also care about the talents!"

"For Shen Xiao, we will train him well in the future! If possible, recommend him to the adult men's national team as soon as possible!"

"With football talents like Shen Xiao, our Chinese football team has a promising future!"

"Okay, let's stop nagging here. The training props have almost been placed at the training ground by the staff. It's time for us to 'train' these young people!"

Gao Qiang smiled at Wu Yuandong, and then the two immediately walked into the training ground.

When head coach Gao Qiang came to the training ground, he clearly felt the change in the team's atmosphere.

This team has a different mental outlook than the team fifteen minutes ago.

It's like a pack of wild wolves suddenly finding a leader.

Especially during the training of the national youth players that day, Gao Qiang also clearly felt that there was an invisible "leader" and "tactical center C" leading everyone.

As the head coach, Gao Qiang was also happy to see the results, and he couldn't help but fall in love with Shen Xiao even more.

A whole day of training has made the players' relationship deeper, and everyone is familiar with each other's characteristics.

While Gao Qiang and Wu Yuandong assigned training tasks to the players, they were not idle either.

Gao Qiang and his coaching staff, after observing the performance of the players throughout the day and the previous few days, finally determined the 21-man roster and field positions of the National Youth Team.

Because each team's coach uses each player differently.

All the players on the team are also from different football clubs, and they play the same or different positions in their own league teams.

Therefore, based on his personal understanding of the players, the head coach may not allow certain players to play familiar positions in the club.

This is just like Messi. In the Barcelona club, his position is the right winger.

Messi's main task in Barcelona is to break through and attack to score goals.

However, when Messi is in the Argentina national team, the head coach allows him to spend more time in the attacking midfielder position, because Messi plays more of an organizer role in the national team.

Therefore, the coaching team of the National Youth Team finally formed the final lineup for the World Youth Championship in Qatar based on the characteristics of each player.

Head Coach: Gao Qiang

Forwards: Shen Xiao, Li Xing, Geng Changan

Midfielder: Qin Yin, Yao Qin, Tan Lang, Wen Shuai, Zhang Xi, Xi Wei, Dong Yin, Kaishan Shan

Defenders: Zhou Jun, Fu Yongqiao, Deng Li, Li Jun, Feng Yu, Zeng Wenxian, Yang Yu, Liu Xiaojie

Goalkeepers: Huang Jian, Dong Xing

After Gao Qiang got the final 21-man roster, he finally took a deep breath.

Because for this period of time, Gao Qiang has been struggling with the final team's lineup and play style.

After all, it is impossible for the players of the National Youth Team to have training almost every week and professional League Cup games to play on weekends like they do in football clubs.

However, players like the National Youth, National Olympics and National Team almost all need to be temporarily recruited from various clubs before the competition.

Therefore, the biggest headache for the head coach is personnel selection and final tactical arrangements.

But when Shen Xiao came to the team, all the problems that had been giving head coach Gao Qiang a headache were solved.

What makes Gao Qiang especially gratified is that when he looks at the roster at the moment, the starting lineup and formation are almost "presented" in Gao Qiang's mind.

The next day, when the players stepped into the training ground again, everyone saw the final lineup at the entrance of the training ground.

When some players found that their positions were different from those in the club, they readily accepted the adjustments and arrangements made by the coaching staff.

During the break at noon that day, the coaching staff also registered the jersey numbers of all the players, so that each player could coordinate with each other on his or her preferred number.

However, all the players seemed to have a "tacit understanding" and made zero choices for a certain number!

This number is the team’s No. 10!

No one chose, so Shen Xiao’s jersey number finally got the number 10.

The owners of the No. 10 jersey are almost always recognized as the core and leader of the team.

When Shen Xiao knew that he would wear the No. 10 jersey to represent the National Youth Team, he not only expressed gratitude to his teammates for their trust, but also felt the great responsibility of his own.

In the next few days of training, Shen Xiao's cooperation with his teammates became even more tacit.

Shen Xiao also continued to exude his "charm" during training. He showed his strong personal and organizational abilities.

However, some players originally had some "personal opinions" and grudges against Shen Xiao, but later on, they completely admired their team's captain.

Slowly, time came to the weekend.

The team's top management and manager decided to arrive in Qatar, the venue of the game, one day early.

Their idea is to arrive at the competition venue early so that the players can adapt to the local climate and venue as quickly as possible.

The National Youth Team arrived at the airport wearing uniform and strict uniforms and carrying suitcases of various sizes.

"Smile, are you nervous? After all, this is your first time representing the country!"

At this time, before boarding the plane, Wu Yuandong smiled and asked Shen Xiao beside him.

As a member of the coaching staff, Wu Yuandong also has to accompany the team to Qatar.

So this World Youth Championship in Qatar happens to be the first "cooperation" between uncle and nephew Wu Yuandong and Shen Xiao.

Privately, both uncle and nephew have never forgotten their "promise", which is to lead the Chinese team to win the World Cup together.

"not nervous!"

"Uncle Dong, my goal for this World Youth Championship is to win the championship!"

At this time, Shen Xiao still said to Wu Yuandong with a confident face.

"You brat, you are ambitious!"

"Then you must brag!"

"If you dare to win the championship, I will get married!"

"Before setting off, I have asked my neighbors Aunt Liu and Aunt Zhang for help. I will ask them to introduce my wife to me when I have time!"

Wu Yuandong looked at Shen Xiao's expression and said to Shen Xiao "without showing any weakness".

"haha, really?"

"Uncle Dong, you are really a piece of rotten wood... you can eventually be carved!"

"Hahahahaha!"

After Shen Xiao finished speaking, he quickly took the boarding pass and ran towards the computer case.

"Hey! You little bastard!"

"If you don't win the championship by then, let's see how I beat you!"
Chapter completed!
