Becoming a football god from Arsenal

Chapter 34 Then use heavy artillery to destroy Bramall Lane!
Over the next few days, Maher's physical fatigue gradually subsided, and he slowly increased the intensity of his strength training.

The proficiency progress is about to reach level 3, and he can’t wait.

The sooner he builds up his strength, the sooner he can add speed and coordination training to make up for his weaknesses.

He looks forward to having more means to deal with his opponents, and also looks forward to becoming a truly omnipotent person in the future.

On August 8, there were only two days left before the third round of the Championship away game against Middlesbrough.

At noon, in the gym.

Maher lay on the ground, his whole body trembling slightly, which then progressed to muscle twitching, numbness all over, and finally all feeling slowly disappeared.

He knew that this was the feeling of strength breaking through level 3!
[Skill: Strong lv3]

[Proficiency Progress: (1/2000)]

[Effect: After your body fat percentage decreases, you start to focus on improving your body's absolute strength. You gradually develop a strong body, become strong and powerful, and your ability to fight is greatly improved! ]

This is a brand new feeling, not only an improvement to his body, but also an improvement to his psychology!

A strong and powerful feeling of strength surged into his heart, giving him greater confidence and relaxation than before.

"call"

Mael looked up to the sky and exhaled, as if he had released all the hard work during that period of time, leaving only the joy and comfort of the moment.

This is a kind of spiritual enjoyment. The crazy secretion of dopamine and endorphins makes him feel like he is having a brain orgasm.

He couldn't sit still any longer, so he stood up and walked to the sandbag and punched it a few times, making it bang. He then used his shoulder to hit the sandbag that bounced back and forth.

A bit neurotic but understandable.

After returning home, he was just thinking of taking advantage of the good mood to give Gilbert some serious encouragement, but he found that the other party's face was not very good.

"I thought I had a chance to start this week."

Gilbert seemed to have just learned about this week's roster arrangement, and looked disappointed: "But I didn't expect that I would still be a substitute."

Maher was about to say something to comfort him, but Gilbert interrupted him with a wave of his hand.

His face looked even uglier, and his expression was vague: "What I find most unbelievable is that you didn't secure your place as a starter in that game, but instead became a substitute."

Mael's heart skipped a beat and he was in deep confusion.

Perhaps due to the breakthrough in strength, he did not feel depressed, but an indescribable strange feeling came to his mind.

The phone vibrated and someone called Maher.

He picked it up, and when he saw it was Jolson, he took it a little numbly, hoping that the person on the other end was there to talk about this matter.

“Mael, I don’t know if you have seen the match list that has just been released.”

Joelson's voice was clearly apologetic from the beginning, his words were incoherent, and he sighed from time to time: "I'm sorry, I may disappoint you, I want to say that it is definitely not your problem.

"It's the conflicts between the management and the coaching staff that led to this result, which makes you feel that it's sometimes the right time and sometimes the wrong place."

"fine."

Maher hesitated for a moment, but decided to ask directly: "Can you tell me exactly what happened?"

The voice on the other end fell silent, and after a while, it took a breath and spoke again: "You may have noticed that the recent training has added a 4-4-2 formation drill. This is Mr. Gary Speed's preparation for taking office.

“Kevin put you in the starting lineup last game and put Gilbert on the bench and gave him a chance, which was also Mr Gary Speed’s request.

"The price is that he must act as an intermediary between Kevin and the board of directors, facilitating the board of directors to pay the severance pay and fire Kevin as soon as possible.

“But after almost two weeks, Kevin still hasn’t heard from the board, so he’s starting to get anxious.”

When Mael heard this, his heart moved slightly and he had already guessed the general situation.

Gilbert angrily threw away the drink in his hand with a glare in his eyes.

The voice on the other end of the phone was filled with anger, "The way this bastard is expressing his anxiety is to pretend to use you two to put pressure on the board and Gary Speed!

"This coward, why can't he just fight for what he wants? If he really wants to save face, why doesn't he resign?

"Everyone can see now that reusing you and Gilbert will be extremely beneficial to the team both now and in the second half of the season!"

Jolson finally calmed down, apologized on behalf of the club, and then hung up the phone.

"What should we do now?" Gilbert asked, his face becoming even darker. "Pray that Kevin will be dismissed immediately."

Maher looked at him and added, "Also, I hope he can still maintain some professional ethics and give us a chance to play as a substitute tomorrow."

The next afternoon, at Middlesbrough's home ground, the Riverside Arena.

"OhWoOh!!"

The more than 30,000 home fans wearing red jerseys were very powerful, and their cheers lasted for a long time, which brought huge pressure to the visiting team at all times.

On the bench on the sidelines, Maher was wearing a substitute vest and sitting on the bench with Gilbert.

He could feel that the emotions of the entire team were once again on a taut string, and could burst out at any time.

The absence of these two people made everyone understand that the contradiction was far from being resolved, the image of revival was just an illusion, and someone had to leave!

Negativity, again, appears in everyone.

Sheffield United players played ugly football and were suppressed by Middlesbrough throughout the game, and the situation was precarious.

Maher was looking forward to a chance to play until half-time, but he stopped looking forward to it after the 70th minute of the second half.

"Oh!"

In the 87th minute of the game, Middlesbrough, who had a bad shooting feel today, finally scored a goal from a set-piece.

"Yeah!!" The home fans cheered excitedly. The player who scored the winning goal patted his chest wildly and ran to the sidelines to celebrate wildly. The whole stadium instantly fell into carnival.

Only the people of Sheffield United had numb eyes, as if they had lost their senses.

"Beep! Beep! Beep--!"

Soon, the game ended and Sheffield United lost the third round of the new season with a score of 0-1.

They all walked towards the locker room in a daze, and fell into silence again. Everything that happened in the last game seemed to be just a last glimmer of light before death.

On the way back, Maher found someone saying something in Kevin's ear, and then led Kevin to another place by another route.

He didn't take it seriously, thinking it was just a post-match interview.

Not long after returning to the locker room, Mr. Gary Speed, wearing a black suit and a brand new red tie, suddenly walked in with great energy.

"children."

He forced a smile out of his tiredness, just like usual, but this time with relief: "Kevin is fired! The new replacement will be me."

All the players looked up suddenly and the locker room was suddenly silent.

"Oh!" After a moment's reaction, they burst into loud cheers, as if they had scored a goal on the field.

Many people have really been waiting for this day for a long time!

Maher turned to look at Gilbert with a happy face, blending into the atmosphere, and the two of them high-fived each other to celebrate.

"I'll talk about the rest of the changes when I get back."

Gary Speed ​​knocked on the table, signaling everyone to be quiet and pay attention here, "For the next home game, we will return to Bramall Lane Stadium.

"When the time comes, I will return to you everything he has taken from you! I hope everyone will work together and use victory to make a good start for my coaching career!"

"Good!" Cheers broke out again in the locker room. Many people even stood up and swung their fists hard.

From this point of view, Gary Speed ​​has already defeated Kevin, even though he is just a young coach.

"He must be talking about the two of us!"

Gilbert, who was sitting next to Maher, came over excitedly and shouted, "I mean, he will give you the starting position and give me a chance to play!"

"definitely is."

Maher looked at the spirited young coach in front of him and suddenly felt a little bit of anticipation. Maybe they could do something together this season.

"How are you going to celebrate?" Gilbert joked with a smile.

"let me see."

Maher thought about it and thought that when the team returns to their home stadium next time, he might also make his debut at Bramall Lane. "Then... let's smash Bramall Lane with heavy artillery!"
