After the training, Pablo came to the chairman's office.
"Chairman Carlos, there is something I must report to you."
Carlos raised his face from the computer, "Coach Pablo, what's the matter?"
Pablo said: "The Chinese player you signed participated in training today. I regret to tell you that he was unable to keep up with the intensity and rhythm of the team's training."
Carlos' expression remained unchanged, "Oh, I've already expected this. He is an amateur player. It is impossible for him to follow the training of a professional team right away. We need to give him some time."
The chairman takes great care of this young Chinese man.
Pablo paused and then said: "His physical fitness cannot even support a training session, which will affect the quality of our team's training."
Carlos looked at Pablo, "Then what do you mean..."
Pablo pondered again and decided to express his thoughts, "Chairman Carlos, I think it is best for this Chinese player to adapt to the youth team. And I suggest that he train with the U17 youth team, because he is afraid of U19
I can’t keep up either.”
Carlos took a deep look at Pablo and said, "Coach Pablo, I think you should understand why I signed Zhao."
Pablo said: "I understand, but as a coach, I can only consider whether this player has the ability to gain a foothold in my team."
Carlos said: "As the chairman, I can't think as simply as you think. The club needs to survive, and the players and coaches need to pay their salaries. This is my responsibility. Therefore, Zhao must stay in the adult team, regardless of whether he can keep up with the training."
.”
Pablo said: "But..."
"There are no buts." Carlos interrupted Pablo rudely, "Whether Zhao can play or not is up to you. Whether Zhao should stay in the adult team or not is up to me."
There was a fire in Pablo's heart, but he didn't dare to let it burn, he just endured it because he needed this job.
Carlos seemed to feel that his attitude just now was not very good, and added: "I don't want to interfere with the team's training and competition, but this is very important to the development of the club. I hope you understand."
After a moment of silence, Carlos said again: "During your game time, I will let Jose take Zhao to train so that he can adapt to the intensity of a professional team as soon as possible."
Pablo felt much better.
Boss Carlos is a good businessman, he does not interfere in team management, and his salary is not much worse than that of Segunda División.
Pablo felt that he should respect his decision.
"Okay, Chairman Carlos, I will also try my best to help him adapt to the team."
Carlos looked at Pablo with relief and said, "It's good if you understand like this. I still think this young man can give the team some help."
"I hope Zhao will live up to your expectations. Chairman Carlos, I'm going back."
After Pablo left the office, there was a sneer on his face.
Can Zhao help the team?
funny.
If he can help the team, St. Andrew's can beat Barcelona.
…
After the first training session, many people in the St. Andrew's team thought that Zhao Yang would be kicked out of the first team and transferred to the youth team.
Head coach Pablo clearly showed the distrust and impatience of the team Zhao Yang.
However, this did not happen.
Zhao Yang still trains step by step with the first team every day.
If there is any difference, Zhao Yang will train with Jose's youth team when playing games with the St. Andrew's team.
Jose has very high demands on Zhao Yang, even higher than those of the first team.
After Zhao Yang realized the gap between himself and the professional team, he trained extremely hard. He arrived at the stadium two hours early every day and worked an hour overtime to go home.
Two months later, Zhao Yang's physical fitness has made great progress and he can basically complete the training tasks of the first team.
It's impossible to keep up with the pace and intensity of a professional team in two months, but Zhao Yang is improving every day.
Pablo is biased against Chinese players, but he has to admit that the Chinese are very smart and can endure hardships.
Round 32 of Group 5 of La Liga 3.
Two months after joining St. Andrew's Club, Zhao Yang received the first opportunity of his career.
He was included in the squad for the match against Atlético Horta.
The Spanish Third Division is the fourth-level league in Spain. The league has 18 groups and 361 teams.
The grouping is the same as the 17 regions in the Spanish administrative divisions. The Andalusia region is divided into two groups, each group is under the jurisdiction of the regional football association.
The top four teams in each group participate in the promotion play-offs to the Segunda B League, while the bottom three in each group are relegated to the first-level regional league.
Eighteen group champions qualify for the Copa del Rey. The remaining teams and some teams from the second league participate in the Spanish Football Association Cup.
Starting from the 2008-09 season, the 18 group champions have the opportunity to be directly promoted to the second league. The 18 group champions will fight against each other, and the winner will be directly promoted.
The loser will participate in the second round of play-offs and compete with the winners of the second to fourth draws in each group for the final nine promotion places.
Atletico Horta is currently ranked 13th, almost in the middle, with no hope of advancement and no worries about relegation.
This also means that the Horta Athletic League has ended this season and will continue to compete in the Spanish Third Division next season.
St. Andrew's is currently ranked 6th and has great hopes of participating in the play-offs. Therefore, teammates and fans believe that Zhao Yang has a small chance of playing.
Head coach Pablo let Zhao Yang enter the squad mainly to cater to chairman Carlos' wishes.
Zhao Yang didn't think so.
The past two months of training have allowed Zhao Yang to regain his confidence. If he plays in the whole game, he will definitely not be strong enough.
But as a substitute, Zhao Yang felt that the extraordinary skills given to him by the system could create a threat.
In training, it was difficult for teammates from these professional teams to block Zhao Yang's breakthrough.
This is also the reason why Pablo is willing to let Zhao Yang be on the roster.
If Zhao Yang had made better passes after passing people, made better shot choices, and had more energy, Pablo would have used him as his main force.
After returning to his residence, Zhao Yang first called his parents to report the good news to them.
Zhao Yang has been in Spain for two months and has been training without playing a single match. Zhao Jianguo and his wife are worried about their son and ask about his condition almost every day.
After calling his parents, Zhao Yang told Wang Bin the news.
After arriving in Barcelona, the people who helped Zhao Yang the most were this enthusiastic old man and of course Miss Truth.
After hearing this, Wang Bin was very happy. Although he was very busy during this period, he said that he must come to watch his game and called on the Chinese to come and cheer him on.
After hearing Wang Bin say that he must come to watch his game, Zhao Yang regretted it a little.
Although Zhao Yang has confidence in himself, he also knows that Pablo has little hope of letting him play.
How disappointing it would be if Wang Bin and his compatriots came but could not see him appear.
But the words have been spoken, and there is no point in regretting it. He can only perform well in tomorrow's training and see if he can increase his chances of playing.
