By the way, when Friedman was discussing contract details with Li Yi, he had promised Li Yi that he would definitely guarantee Li Yi's main position after coming to Crystal Palace.
What I said just now seems to be going back on my word? Let Li Yi rely on his strength to compete for the job?
No, no.
Please believe that in this world, anything decided by people can never be truly fair and just!
When hanging out with Li Yi earlier, Friedman had already vented his anger with Li Yi on this matter. According to Friedman, Li Yi had just arrived and he knew that Li Yi would not be able to integrate into the team quickly. However,
None of this matters. As long as Li Yi doesn't behave too badly in training matches and Friedman recommends Li Yi to the top position, no one will say anything.
After all, Crystal Palace's current two forwards are really not worthy of reuse.
From this small detail, it is not difficult to see that at least in terms of employment, Friedman is much better than Magilton. If Magilton hadn't seen Vine's return, he couldn't wait to
I wanted to put Li Yi back on the bench, but without making any changes, Li Yi and qpr would not have reached this stage.
…
In fact, the adaptation training of any professional team is very similar. After all, it is too easy to be a "spy" these days. If there are any good training methods, no matter how closed-minded you are, a caring person can find out.
, Therefore, Li Yi did not find any difficulties in adapting to Xing during the morning's adaptation training. He handled the morning training easily. I don't know if the coach has played a role. The general attitude towards Li Yi within the Crystal Palace is quite friendly.
A player representative, together with Li Yi, enjoyed a pleasant lunch in the restaurant.
Looking at the teammates around him who were very friendly to him even though they were meeting for the first time, Li Yi smiled heartily while eating. At the same time, Li Yi was also looking forward to the afternoon training match.
Friedman opened a back door for himself. Regardless of his performance, he would determine the starting position. Apart from that, during the morning training, Li Yi, who already had an understanding of the strength of the two original forwards of Crystal Palace, relied on his own
Ability, I have 100% confidence to compete for that position.
As for why he is so confident? It’s no wonder that Li Yi is not confident! Not every team is like QPR and likes to use the 4-2-3-1 formation. Unfortunately, Friedman’s favorite formation is
5-3-2. So, if three people compete for two positions together, they will have no confidence at all, and Li Yi will lose his incredible self-confidence attributes.
After lunch, it was not suitable to jump into sports quickly, so I rested for a while with my teammates. At 2 o'clock in the afternoon, the practice match inside the Crystal Palace to "decided" the future starting lineup began.
After the game started, because the newcomer was only Li Yi, the competition for the main position seemed to be limited to the forward position, so the confrontation on the court was not too strong.
Even Li Yi, who was specially taken care of by Friedman and put most of the main players into the red team, found out a little speechlessly that his own situation on the court was, to say the least, not as good as that of a group of people who had some thoughts and worked hard.
Substitute black team.
Among them, the most active one was Clinton Morrison, who was originally the main player, but was squeezed out by Li Yi as a substitute for the first team in this game.
The people playing football on the field were all professional players, and no one was missing a brain. It seemed like a training match to determine the main lineup in the future, but the drawing was so coincidental that Li Yi was selected from the main team and he was selected as a substitute.
Team, said there is nothing fishy in this, does Morrison believe it?
Unwilling to be reduced to a substitute, from the first minute of this seemingly unimportant team training match, Morrison, who was holding back his energy and in excellent condition, almost became the only protagonist on the field.
The black team's three consecutive attacks ended at his feet. This should be said that Morrison is the protagonist. Why almost? The fundamental reason is that in terms of the ability to seize opportunities, Morrison is really...
Just imagine, if he was really awesome, why would Friedman have to go all the way to personally invite Li Yi?
Witnessing the laziness of his teammates on the red team on the court, Li Yi saw it in his eyes and felt anxious in his heart.
As a forward, Li Yi's duty on the court is to help the team attack the city. But at this moment, there is no follow-up support at all, and it is difficult to touch the ball. How can Li Yi perform?
Run back to half court and grab it yourself?
Just kidding, let alone Li Yi's poor defensive attributes, if he really goes back to half-court to participate in defense, can he successfully intercept the ball from the feet of the opponent's players? Even if he is lucky enough to intercept the ball, he will
How? Is it possible to ask Li Yi to give birth to a child and support him together, grab the ball, and then pass everyone on the field and take the ball into the opponent's goal? This kind of plot can only happen in novels, Li Yi
Currently, it's not possible.
In fact, the reason why this situation occurs is because of the mentality of the red team members.
As long as the red team's mentality is adjusted, Li Yi's opportunity will soon come to him.
No, when Li Yi was "sleepwalking" on the other side of the court and didn't know what to do, Friedman, who was sitting on the sidelines, couldn't stand it for the first time!
After waving hello to the referee's assistant and asking the other team to pause the game, Friedman called the red team members to him with a dark face. Without speaking, he just stared at the players for 1 or 2 minutes.
Finally, a few players couldn't stand the look in Friedman's eyes and said in defeat, "Sorry, coach, we know we were wrong!"
After waiting for so long, someone apologized. Friedman, who was already upset, smiled with a smile, and then said gloomily, "Did you think that you were the main force in the past? This training match, but...
It's the forward line that needs to be adjusted, so it doesn't matter whether you perform well or not?"
"..." Silence, collective silence. Although I thought what Friedman said in my heart, but look at Friedman's expression, at this time, who can be the vanguard to get in trouble with Friedman?
?
Even in this game, Li Yi, who did nothing wrong himself, is acting like a good baby at the moment, lowering his head and waiting to be punished, let alone those "perpetrators"?
"Good! Very good! Very good!" Three consecutive words of "good" came out of his mouth, but the degree of the word gradually increased. Friedman, who was really irritated by the negative attitude of the red team before the game, solemnly declared, "I
Now I’m officially notifying you! At the end of this training match, if you can’t beat the black team by 3 goals and have a ball possession rate of 60%+, you will be very honored to see the team before the start of the next league round.
Your name will not be on the big list! I won’t say anything more. It’s up to you how to choose!”
