Team Spirit

Chapter 113 (1 words, 23 days) Step by step, step by step GOAT, the King of London emerges in his youth!

France Football: "Datford, a League Two team, has defeated Premier League giants three times! Can you handle this shot, a feat that has been honed over 113 years?"

Bild, the German newspaper: "The first English League Two team in history to win the League Cup – Dartford Royal VCD!"

The Italian newspaper La Repubblica reports: "The Golden Boy award is becoming increasingly prestigious! San Luca's performance as goalkeeper has even overshadowed Buffon!"

Spanish TV: "A huge upset in the EFL Cup! Dartford equalizes in extra time, then wins on penalties!"

Portuguese newspaper El País: "Sheringham missed another penalty after scoring one, losing the championship! Lu Kai missed five out of six penalties, winning with his focus!"

The Times of London: "On this day, King Arthur donned the green and white number seven jersey for Dartford! He's not called Lu Kai, he's called King Lu Arthur of English Football!"

???

Football media across Europe were shocked.

In these football powerhouses, if a team from Serie B, La Liga 2, 2. Bundesliga, or Ligue 2 were to win a domestic cup competition, it would be a dark horse miracle!

Cottford is in the English Third Division!
You're three levels behind!
In some of the aforementioned regions, players at this level are not qualified to participate in domestic cup competitions.

More than one cup competition has had a rule that only allows teams from the top and second divisions to participate.

You, as an ordinary person, don't even have a chance.

It's not that I look down on you, it's just that the difference in strength is really too great.

However, this time Green Gun went straight to the top.

The EFL Cup is a legitimate championship, an honor that top teams cherish.

Liverpool's five trophies last season included the EFL Cup, so it's impossible for the trophy to become worthless after Dartford won it, right?

Even back home, before the sheepdogs could even react, the media was already raving about Dartford, with each article boasting brilliant writing:

China Sports Daily: "BBK, GOAT every step of the way! Lu Kai scores ten goals and provides nine assists, sweeping all three major individual awards in the EFL Cup! Who can compete with him! Chinese audio-visual brand BBK is holding a special event to celebrate Dartford's championship victory, with 10% off everything! 10% off everything!"

amount……

This is a blatant advertisement; the writing is mediocre, but the angle is excellent.

The CEO of BBK even considered naming their future mobile phone brand... GOAT!
OPPO: ? ? ?
vivo: No!

Sports Weekly: "A draw against Tottenham, Arsenal no match! Little Green Gunner, ambitious, to conquer Manchester City and Manchester City!"

Dongqiudi (a sports website): "The sordid past is nothing to boast about, now London is our home! Forget the red, blue, white, and white teams, the green spears are creating a new legend! A new! legend!"

on the field.

Lu Kai, the MVP of the match, is being interviewed.

Reporter: "Lu Kai, congratulations! Why did you rush out of the goal so boldly? Was it your striker's keen instinct?"

Lu Kai nodded: "Yes, I know I can't just sit here and wait to die. If Tottenham had seen my performance in the FA Cup, they would probably know that I'm a goalkeeper who will leave his post."

Reporter: "Levy believes this match was unfair, ugly, and a persecution of Premier League teams by the English Professional Football League."

He believes that Dartford's miracle was nothing more than a deliberate fabrication, a false myth, and a tragedy for football.

"What do you think?"

The English Professional Football League (FLL) governs the three tiers of English football: League One, League Two, and League Three. However, with the Premier League's separation, they lost control of the most important top-tier league.

Lu Kai laughed and said, "He has too many flaws. First of all, does he even believe there are matches that are not influenced by human factors?"

"Any competition, as long as people are involved, will inevitably reflect the influence of people."

"But when this influence is in his favor, he pretends not to know and never mentions it."

“When things go against him, he’ll start criticizing them.”

Ultimately, it's because my own abilities weren't strong enough and my preparations weren't thorough enough.

"If Tottenham had bought two more star players in their prime before the start of the season, they wouldn't have had to go through extra time and a penalty shootout with us."

Reporter: "Are you saying Sheringham isn't good enough?"

Lu Kai shook his head: "That's what you said, but I don't think so. Both Sheringham and Poyet are excellent players and still have strong fighting power."

"The world belongs to the old generation, and to the new generation, but it will ultimately belong to the new generation!"

"Besides these veteran players, Tottenham needs more star players if they want to become a Premier League powerhouse."

"Of course, Tottenham fans can rest assured that this season will not be the one in which Tottenham spends the least money."

"This League Cup will not be the first title that Tottenham loses."

reporter:? ? ?

Everyone was confused.

I thought Lu Kai would offer comfort and blessings to Tottenham fans.

Unexpectedly, Lu Kai was rubbing salt into the wound!

Doesn't this mean we'll become mortal enemies with Tottenham?

Is this a case of a petty person gaining power?

But from Lu Kai's perspective, would Tottenham fans let him off the hook if he said a few nice words?

The grudge of losing the championship can only be settled with the championship.

Dartford will never offer a championship as compensation.

Once a feud is formed, it's not easy to resolve. Otherwise, where would all the fierce rivalries and derbies in the football world come from?

Moreover, for business reasons, Dartford will not maintain a friendly relationship with Tottenham.

On the one hand, a strained relationship means future encounters will be derbies, which can stimulate fan spending.

On the other hand, poor relationships can also effectively reduce the natural movement of players between the two sides.

Levy's decision to buy Dartford players is predictable and will likely lead to something.

In short, it's impossible to offer a price that satisfies Lu Kai.

When you want to do business with Lie Bapi, he talks to you about the spirit of contracts, sticking to the facts, refusing to engage in cutthroat competition, and that he has already paid you.

But when he wants to do business with you, he'll talk about friendship, importance, loyalty, family, and angel investors!

In contrast, Manchester United is the real friend worth getting to know better.

You quoted 80 million euros?
I'll offer 100 million!

Forget about whether it's worth it or not, let's just talk about whether it's expensive or not!

Expensive means good, and good means expensive!
Manchester United's business practices are truly admirable – taking from those with surplus and giving to those with insufficient resources!

During Lu Kai's interview, Ashley Young also came over and jokingly peeked into the shot, shouting happily, "Arsenal isn't even a top four! Not even a top four!"

It seems he has already seen the news published by Sports Weekly.

However, his Chinese is still a bit lacking, and his pronunciation is not very standard.

Arsenal: Are you kidding me? I think his pronunciation is perfect!
The temporary award stage was quickly set up.

First, there are some individual awards from this season's EFL Cup.

Lu Kai won the League Cup Golden Boot.

He tops the list with ten goals.

The second-place team only scored six goals.

But don't think it's too little, because normally, in competitions like the EFL Cup and FA Cup, three or four goals can be enough to win the Golden Boot.

Five or six balls is a lot.

While major competitions generally don't award trophies to the assist leader, they usually keep track of it among the general public.

Lu Kai won the championship again with nine assists.

Finally, Lu Kai went on stage for the second time to receive the Best Player award for the tournament.

He won three individual awards.

Eastwood scored four goals but had no assists.

Morgan scored four goals but received zero assists.

Holt scored three goals and had one assist.

Ashley Young scored two goals and provided two assists.

The Tottenham players then went on stage to receive their awards.

Being the runner-up is also an honor.

Unfortunately, the champions were too weak, and Tottenham's runner-up finish was truly unsatisfying.

Finally, the Dartford players took to the stage one by one, and the EFL Secretary General personally presented them with their championship medals.

Joyce assisted him from the side.

However, due to Dartford's excessive excitement and the fact that the team had never won an honor in such a prestigious event before, some players who were not eligible to receive medals according to the rules also went to collect their awards.

For example, Daniel.

When the rich guy is happy, he doesn't care about anything else.
Based on his own abilities, he would never win this medal in his lifetime.

But now, all it takes is a little shamelessness to get the honor.

At worst, we can just give a few "Green Gun Tea Girl" annual membership cards to the brothers who didn't win medals afterwards.

There are also former players like Simpson, George, and Jason, who are now staff members of the team.

Lu Kai did not stop them.

He even waved to Casper in the stands: "Casper, come down!"

Kasper was somewhat surprised, pointing to himself: "Me?"

Lu Kai nodded: "Quick, come down! Let's take a group photo! Hurry up..."

Kasper was a little embarrassed, since he wasn't even on the team's EFL Cup registration list.

He has only played one EFL Trophy match for Dartford so far, as a member of the team's youth academy.

However, the Dartford fans around him were all looking at Kasper, clapping and chanting, "Get off! Get off!"

"Oh? Is this Schmeichel?"

"My God, so this green-gun youth academy player next to him is his child?"

"Didn't you see the news? It's him!"

As more and more people gathered around, Schmeichel began to greet the fans warmly, then smiled and said to Kasper, "Go on."

"Feel the atmosphere of winning the championship."

"Winning a championship with different teams is different."

Kasper then climbed over the fence and onto the field.

The presenter also awarded him a medal.

At this point, the medals had all been awarded.

However, Dartford's side still lacks players like Lu Kai, Alfred, Victor, Jiang Mengyun, Emily, and Eva.

They were declared to have medals in the pre-competition application.

"Let's go, it's time for us to go up."

Lu Kai was the first to walk onto the podium, leaving Joyce and the EFL Secretary General somewhat embarrassed.

But Lu Kai took the initiative to hug Joyce: "Thank you for your continued support. You will always be family in Dartford!"

Joyce beamed.

Lu Kai then embraced the secretary-general, completely downplaying the medal incident.

The staff behind them followed suit, shaking hands and chatting without any awkwardness.

In the end, Lu Kai received the championship trophy.

The entire Dartford squad, a motley crew, stood on the podium.

Lu Kai: "We are..."

The next moment, the trophy was raised high.

The whole team cheered:

"champion!"

Wow!
The Cardiff Millennium Stadium erupted in applause.

Huang Jianxiang laughed and said, "Yes, Dartford is a debtor! The EFL owes them at least five medals! Okay, that's all for this match broadcast. If we want to see Dartford play again, we'll probably have to wait until next season."

"Hopefully they can qualify for the UEFA Cup group stage through the qualifiers, so we can broadcast more matches next season."

"Of course, theoretically, if Dartford can reach the UK Championship final this season, we will have another chance to meet!"

……

Catalonia, Spain.

"Has he won the championship?"

After watching the awards ceremony, Iniesta felt extremely uncomfortable.

This season, due to injuries to several Barcelona first-team players, Iniesta was called up to the first team, but did not get a chance to play.

There's no reason to regret this, because it's a remarkable achievement.

Seeing that Lu Kai had won the EFL Cup, Iniesta was not happy at all.

In theory, after he joins the first team, he should first play in cup competitions for more than a year, perform well, and gradually get substitute opportunities in the league.

Ultimately, you need to become an important rotation player to be able to play in the cup final.

Even if he thinks highly of himself, it would still take him three or four years, right?
Has Lu Kai really gotten so much ahead of him?

Moreover... if he wins the championship, he will be winning it by standing on the shoulders of the giant Barcelona.

But in Dartford, Lu Kai was that giant.

This is a qualitative difference.

"What do you think of him?" Iniesta asked, looking at Messi, the young player from the youth academy, who was standing next to him.

Messi remained serious and confident throughout, stating, "When I reach his age, I'll be better than him!"

A few seconds later, he added, "But if I had fought him back then, I would probably have lost!"

Iniesta nodded.

A very fair assessment.

Moreover, his assessment of Lu Kai is consistent with Iniesta's: He is not as strong as me, but he wins while I lose!

Because they are just individual players.

Lu Kai is the whole team!

Lisbon, Portugal.

"Hey, Cristiano Ronaldo, why are you still doing extra training?" Sporting Lisbon's first-team star Quaresma spotted Ronaldo doing extra training.

Cristiano Ronaldo did not reply.

Quaresma walked over and said, "You feel like you're going to be outdone by others, right?"

"Don't worry about these things, Chris."

"This year's EFL Cup was clearly scripted; that title didn't reflect his true ability."

"Didn't Tottenham appeal the referee's decision after the match, claiming it was unfair?"

"He's not on the same track as us; we'll join a powerhouse like Barcelona. Then, forget about non-top-tier cup competitions like the EFL Cup; even the FA Cup, the Copa del Rey, and even La Liga and the Champions League will be ours!"

Cristiano Ronaldo nodded.

But after Quaresma left, Ronaldo kept his eyes glued to the ball, his mind filled with thoughts of the English league.

Perhaps at this moment, he has made his choice between La Liga and the Premier League!

La Liga is great, but he wants to go to England first!
Amsterdam, The Netherlands.

Van der Vaart unleashed a series of powerful shots, sending the ball hurtling towards the goal.

After training, he called out to the tall guy not far away, "Hey, Ibrahimovic, help me get the ball."

Ibrahimovic, with his long, flowing hair, smiled and nodded, but as he turned away, his expression suddenly darkened, and he whispered, "Zlatan would never help someone else retrieve the ball!"

A few minutes later, he pushed a cart full of footballs to Van der Vaart.

no way.

People have to bow their heads under the roof.

Rafael van der Vaart is the heart of Ajax.

Ibrahimovic has just established himself in the team this season, and if he doesn't get along well with Van der Vaart, he could be relegated to the bench in no time.

Because Egyptian Prince Mido, who plays the same position, is more favored by the head coach.

If it weren't for Mido's disciplinary issues, Ibrahimovic wouldn't even have made it into the starting lineup this season.

"Is it because of Lu Kai?" Ibrahimovic chatted with Van der Vaart. "Actually, you don't need to worry. Not to mention that the Dutch league is far more prestigious than the English third division."

"We'll be able to play in the Champions League next season, but they'll only be able to play in the UEFA Cup at best, and they might not even qualify for the group stage."

"We are not in the same league as our opponents."

Van der Fate nodded and then stopped practicing.

Ibrahimovic breathed a sigh of relief; finally, he didn't have to retrieve the ball.

Watching Van der Vaart's retreating figure, Ibrahimovic repeated his earlier statement: "We are not in the same league!"

There can never be anyone else above Zlatan!
Whether you are Lu Kai or Van der Vaart!

……

"Quick, quick, switch it over! Asen Green's Love Diary is about to begin!"

In a small room, Vardy and a large group of friends are watching the hottest variety documentary.

At first, no one knew about the program being obscured.

Even after finding out, they still rejected it.

Especially after they were eliminated by Dartford.

But after Vardy saw a fleeting glimpse of himself on the show, he became a die-hard fan.

Of course, it's just a TV show.

He remains a die-hard Sheffield Wednesday fan and will never be a Dartford fan.

The program started soon.

In the video, Eva Green is pushing Lu Kai, who is in a wheelchair.

Lu Kai's voice rang out: "At first, we only wanted to draw with Chelsea."

The relevant images appeared.

"Later, we wanted to prove ourselves against the great team Liverpool."

"Later, we wanted to reclaim our former glory and tell the Arsenal team with which we have a long history that we did not want to lose."

"Then we arrived in Manchester, where we encountered a truly unforgettable resistance."

"Finally, when we beat Tottenham and stood up to look around, we realized... we were invincible in London!"

Eva Green's voice interjects: "Datford's stability in the EFL Cup reveals the story behind it all..."

The young people in the room were completely mesmerized, because Eva was just... well, because football was just so beautiful! If they had a suitor like Eva, they believed they would become football kings!
This episode of "My Love Diary in Asen Green" has undoubtedly set a new record.

Eva Green and Lu Kai became England's favorite on-screen couple thanks to this work.

The two were also selected as one of the top ten on-screen couples in Europe.

in the country, some people watch this series as a documentary to gain insights into European football.

Some people treat this as a lighthearted, entertaining show, something to watch without thinking too much.

Some people even treat this like a dating reality show, saying it's so sweet and romantic!

Just when people thought nothing bigger would happen this March.

Manchester United have released an official statement: After careful consideration, Sir Alex Ferguson will continue his management career at Manchester United!

The world of football exploded instantly!
If Dartford's EFL Cup victory was a gust of wind from Thunder Fifteen.

So Ferguson continuing to manage Manchester United was like a nuclear bomb being launched and then withdrawn... The whole world breathed a sigh of relief.

France Football: "The world of football has avoided a huge loss!"

AS: "As long as Ferguson is still there, Manchester United will remain Real Madrid's most important rival!"

Gazzetta dello Sport: "Next season, the Red Devils may set sail again!"

Bild: "The Godfather is still here! Ferguson may lead Manchester United into the 2.0 era!"

Subsequently, Sky Sports released an interview with Ferguson.

It discusses the main reason why Ferguson stayed on.

Ferguson: "Kessie knows I can't live without football, and she brought me back to Manchester United, but I already owe her too much, and I can't be so selfish."

"In the end, we made a bet."

"I will retire if Tottenham wins the EFL Cup."

"If Dartford wins, I will continue to manage."

“I deliberately picked Dartford because I knew they were going to lose.”

"But this team taught me a lesson. Lu Kai taught me a truth I had almost forgotten... because miracles happen in football!"

In response, England fans even took to the streets to thank Tottenham and Dartford.

"Those who call Tottenham trash and say they can't even beat a League Three team can shut up. Tottenham is showing consideration for the bigger picture!"

"Putting everything else aside, when our Manchester United faces Tottenham next season, we'll give them three points as a sign of respect!"

"From now on, Tottenham will be my third favorite team! Dartford is second!"

"Green Gun really lived up to expectations, he helped me get another magic boost!"

"Our team has been in poor form this season, allowing Arsenal to take the lead. If we hadn't been eliminated by Arsenal in the League Cup, we wouldn't have had any material to argue with Arsenal fans!"

Not only the fans, but also the Manchester United management are grateful to Dartford.

If Ferguson were to step down, Manchester United's commercial value and competitive level would be greatly diminished.

Since Ferguson is willing to stay, Manchester United's rejuvenation process can begin to meet his tactical needs.

Ferguson will decide on the big deal.

However, it's still good for senior management to prepare small gifts in advance.

Manchester Evening News: "Breaking news! Manchester United's top brass reveals they are 100% committed to Ashley Young! They want to bring him to Old Trafford as the successor to Giggs and Beckham!"

The Times: "A last-minute equalizer against Tottenham, a victory in life! Manchester United say they will be in talks with Dartford about Ashley Young's transfer in the coming period!"

The Echo: "Datford lives up to the Gunners' name! Following Morgan, another player from the Green Gunners has caught the eye of Manchester United!"

Sky Sports: "A football inspirational story: The Hornets' green redemption! After winning the EFL Cup final, Ashley Young looked at himself two years ago, abandoned by Watford, and said, 'Ashley, don't bow your head, or your crown will fall!'"

Kicker: "Another talented player emerges in the lower leagues, causing a sensation! In-depth analysis of Ashley Young's technical characteristics that have Manchester United excited!"

BBC: "Ashley Young Interview! From Ninth Tier to EFL Cup Champions, Here Are Five Things I Did Right!"

famous!

Following Lu Kai and Morgan, another British imperial star has emerged.

And he's even more popular than the previous two.

After all, Lu Kai wasn't destined for a life of luxury.

Morgan's role at Liverpool was merely that of a substitute.

But Ashley Young is the man who is going to be the successor to Giggs and Beckham!

Can this be the same?
If Lu Kai, due to his position as chairman of Dartford FC, is jokingly referred to as the "King of London," then Lu Kai is a prime example.

So Ashley Young is the Prince of London!

Despite the disadvantage of seniority, these days, princes are often more popular than kings!
The melancholic prince Baggio!

Piero, the Zebra Prince!

Totti, the Prince of Rome!

Bergkamp, ​​the Ice Prince!
Redondo, the Prince of the Pampas!

Prince Raúl of Spain!
Maldini, the prince of Milan!

Ballet Prince Van Basta!

I stand shoulder to shoulder with the legend, and the legend even wants to give me a cigarette!

Of course, considering that his contract was still in Lu Kai's hands, Ashley Young did not get carried away. In an interview with the BBC, he revealed the secret to his success.

"The fifth point, and the one I think is the most important, is that I met Lu! He is a good teacher, a good friend, a strict boss, and a reliable friend."

"He is... (ten thousand words omitted here)."

Even at Dartford, Ashley Young feared Manchester United whenever anyone asked about their intentions.

He often held a milk tea cup and loudly talked to himself in the shop: "I will definitely not go to Manchester United. I'm too young and can't handle it!"

"Datford is my home, and I want to stay here and shine forever! Of course, if it's necessary to sell me to contribute to the club's finances, I would be more than happy to do so."

"In short, Brother Lu, keep soaring high, and Xiao Yang will always be there for you!"

Lu Kai felt a little nauseous listening to this: "Alright, stop pretending. We won't hold you back. But like I said, if you really want to leave, you have to cooperate with the club and try to find a win-win solution."

"Oh, right, there's one more thing. Did your family buy lottery tickets for our English Third Division promotion?"

Ashley Young corrected, "It's winning the championship! Odds of 1 to 5,000 are a complete waste of money!"

Lu Kai nodded: "I heard the lottery company is buying back tickets..."

Ashley Young lamented, "Yeah! Before, it was three or five times the price, but after we won the championship, they probably panicked and bought back the players at ten times the price!"

"But my little brother is a real idiot. He grew up eating shit every day and he actually lost the ticket stub! And he repeatedly assured me that he absolutely did not hide the lottery ticket under the mattress at the foot of the bed."

Amorin asked curiously, "You went to check?"

Ashley Young shook his head: "No. He said he didn't hide the lottery ticket there, why should I check? I looked under the mattress near his head, and it wasn't there either!"

Amorin covered his head: "What makes you dare to use the word 'also'?!"

Lu Kai nodded, this was a good thing: "Anyway, my opinion is that since we've already bought it, we shouldn't sell it."

For the next period of time, Dartford will really be making a final push for the English Third Division!
They are currently ranked sixth in the league and have entered the promotion zone.

But that's not enough to guarantee safety.

With ten rounds left in the league, they need to finish in the top three in these ten matches!
If they can maintain their winning streak, it won't be difficult.

Because the points of the top seven teams are very close.

In fact... when Dartford made it into the top three, they were theoretically in contention for the title!
Dartford's journey in the EFL Cup and FA Cup this season has ended, but the remaining schedule is not easy.

Because they also reached the round of 16 in the UK Championship.

Therefore, we need to fight on two fronts.

Another factor that affects a team's performance is the "excavator" behavior of various teams!
As far as Lu Kai knew, mid-to-lower table teams in the Premier League such as Fulham, Sunderland, Bolton, Everton, and Charlton, as well as top teams in League One such as Manchester City, Crystal Palace, Nottingham Forest, and Wimbledon, all coveted Dartford's players.

Key players like Eastwood, Duff, Brad, Markov, Dawson, Holt, and Williams are all being closely followed by scouts.

This has both advantages and disadvantages.

The good thing is that it can motivate players to perform at their best; the bad thing is that it may interfere with their game performance.

Therefore, Dartford will need to closely monitor the players' form and help them adjust their mentality to perform better while maintaining teamwork.

Otherwise, relying solely on the individual abilities of these players, their record might not be good.

Because the players Dartford is currently facing are essentially leftovers from big clubs.

They have the ability to compete in League One and even the Premier League, but it's a stretch.

There are almost no true superstars among them.

If Dartford had players like Ronaldo, Messi, Ibrahimovic, Van der Vaart, Rooney, Robben, and Iniesta, Lu Kai would just have them do the work.

Team my ass, there's no need for that!
……

[Ding! You led your team to victory in the EFL Cup and have received a reward:]

【Magnet - Black Iron 2】

[Quick Start - Iron 2]

[Pull and Kick - Iron 2]

【Focus on Marking·Silver 3】

[First Shot - Iron: This refers to a shot without stopping the ball. Your volleying ability has been slightly improved.]

[Fancy Ball Control - Iron: Your ball control ability has been improved. It has been detected that you possess the Tango Rabona and Scorpion Kick skills. There is a chance to successfully execute both techniques, making you the most dazzling player on the field.]

[Kroos's Contact Lens: Player Item. Vision +1. Verbal Attack Power +5]

【Defensive Position: 69+1】

[Vertical Jump: 57+1]

[Ball control: 55+1+1]

Man-to-Man: 51+1

【Shot Pre-swing: 53+1】

[Vision: 6+1 (Additional boost, does not affect normal growth)]

!!!

The profits are good.

[Fancy ball control], it's all about looking cool.

So-called ball control and talent can sometimes be compensated for by these fancy moves.

It will also make fans think that you have very good skills.

Cristiano Ronaldo rose to become a rising star in the Premier League in his early years through this method.

But the best finds this time were player merchandise.

Ah-Kuan's contact lenses!
As we all know, language is an art, and Cross is an expert in it.

After joining Real Madrid from Bayern Munich, he bluntly stated that "Real Madrid is a level above Bayern Munich," earning him the nickname "the one who surpasses the top."

In an interview, he also mentioned some differences between playing Champions League away games for Real Madrid and Bayern Munich. At Real Madrid, you can go home immediately, but at Bayern, you have to attend a dinner party, which is frankly quite annoying.

When fans complained that he was overrated, saying that 190 out of 200 passes were back passes and that he could still earn 20 million euros a year, he bluntly said that the fans underestimated his salary.

When asked about injuries within the team, he said he couldn't answer because he rarely gets injured.

Lu Kai certainly didn't want A-Kuan's verbal attacks.

What he needs is a broader perspective.

The main point is that this +1 vision doesn't affect normal growth.

In other words, theoretically, Lu Kai's special attribute, which is at the maximum level of 7, can reach level 8!
If we add another camera like Harvey O'Neal, wouldn't we be able to stack them even higher?
Lu Kai himself has always been puzzled by this issue of vision.

He was already close to the maximum level, and his vision was indeed strong, but he always felt that the vision of those midfield masters was more than one level better than his.

Now it seems... that abnormal players may have certain attribute values ​​that exceed the upper limit of 7 or 100.

This is also very reasonable.

Otherwise, if you set Messi and Ronaldinho's ball control to 100, then most players would probably be below 90, which would cause numerical compression and cause the numerical values ​​to lose their original measuring ability.

The same principle applies to Akinfenwa's power.

On March 12, Dartford will host Yeowell, who are ranked first in the league.

Win 2-1.

The team was in such great form during this match.

Kasper, who started the game, also performed excellently, making a crucial save that seemed certain to be a goal.

He will have a lot of playing time in the coming period.

Because An Qi needs to recover from her injury.

Of course, Scott, the original backup goalkeeper, will also get some playing time.

After this match, Dartford climbed to fifth place in the standings.

March 15th, UK Championship Round of 16.

Dartford vs. Notts County.

This is also a League Two team, and they are ranked 22nd, meaning they are a relegated team.

Eastwood scored twice in this match and was named Man of the Match.

Lu Kai and Brad each scored and assisted.

Green Gunners advanced easily with a score of 4-2.

Ashley Young came on as a substitute but did not record any statistics.

After the game, Ashley Young approached Lu Kai and asked, "Lu, I feel like I've been benched a bit lately?"

Lu Kai was surprised: "Why would you think that? Why are you in such a hurry to transfer and leave?"

Ashley Young countered, "No, I just want to contribute more to the team. We can't afford to lose in the league, and I hope our team can be in League Two next season!"

Manchester United: ? ? ?
Lu Kai nodded: "I'm very happy that you have this awareness. In fact, your playing time was strictly in accordance with the instructions of pediatric growth medicine experts."

“You’ve grown two centimeters this year, and you’re 1.67 meters tall now. That’s a great start.”

"Fewer competitions, more rest, less protein loss, and more sleep, and you'll grow to 1.8 meters tall very quickly."

"Believe me, Maradona at 1.65 meters might be a king of football. But Maradona at 1.8 meters will become a god of football!"

"And you, my friend, you are Nain!"

Ashley Young was almost completely bewildered by those two or three sentences.

But this time, Ashley Young is determined, like a turtle eating a heavy weight!
Ashley Young: "I still want to play more games, Lu, please. If there's only one person left who's still loyal to Dartford, it will be me!"

Lu Kai tugged at the [Fabregas captain's armband] on his arm.

Really hammered.

This damn thing accelerates the growth of young players, but it definitely reduces their loyalty.

Just that one sentence set my heart ablaze... Pshaw... Fan Bingbing also said something similar!
Van Persie did it too!

“Alright, alright, I’ll arrange for you to start from now on. But you have to promise me one thing,” Lu Kai instructed. “I have absolutely no worries about your abilities.”

"You will definitely put up some great performances and stats, so you need to take extra care of yourself on the field."

"Pay close attention to the emotions and condition of the opposing defensive players."

"Remember, nothing is more important than your health!"

Ashley Young's eyes reddened.

As he rose to fame as the Prince of London, everyone only cared about how high he could fly.

Only Lu Kai was still concerned about whether he was tired from flying.

I knew I hadn't made the wrong choice!
After Ashley Young left, Alfred asked, "I've never seen a player who cares so much about his teammates' health."

Lu Kai nodded: "After all, if it's injured, it won't fetch a good price."

Alfred was taken aback: "You're really planning to sell Yang? He actually has a lot of potential, and you two have such a good relationship. If you keep him, maybe he'll agree to it."

Lu Kai shrugged: "You can't force a melon to ripen. Can you keep him for a year, or a second year? Given his current mood, unless his leg is broken by a tackle, he's definitely going to Manchester United."

Barton, who had overheard some of this, immediately stood up and muttered, "You want to break his leg, huh?"

Lu Kai and Alfred quickly pulled Barton back.

No, no, no, that's not what I meant.

Bro, are you serious?

You get all excited when it comes to beating up your teammates, huh?

Lu Kai explained, "Given Ashley Young's personality and the current environment, suppressing his data and performance will only have the opposite effect."

"Since he wants to fly, I will create the conditions for him."

"But people can't teach each other. Experiences can teach people in one go."

"He wouldn't listen to any of the precautions I mentioned."

"The English Second Division is different from the matches we used to play. This is a professional league, and promotion and relegation in professional leagues are particularly brutal!"

"There are even instances of players deliberately using dirty tactics to score one or two points."

Profits exceeding 300% allow one to trample on all human laws.

Professional football is a business that can easily involve millions or even tens of millions of pounds, so it's easy to imagine how much gray area there is.

Few players who lack awareness of danger and rely on their talent to dominate the field end up in a bad way.

It's not that having talent is a mistake, but if you have talent, you should know how to protect yourself, because possessing a treasure can be a crime.

Lu Kai: "And if Ashley Young really gets injured during this period, I don't think Manchester United will still want him. Because... do you really think Manchester United wants Ashley Young?"

Barton was taken aback.

Is not it?
Alfred frowned: "You mean... Ashley Young is just a smokescreen for Manchester United? They really want someone else?"

Lu Kai nodded.

Beckham's successor?
Giggs' successor?

From Ferguson's perspective on continental reforms, Ashley Young was indeed within the scope of selection.

But in reality, Ferguson has one hard requirement for selecting players at this stage – that's right, height!
He wouldn't even glance at any forward who wasn't at least 1.8 meters tall.

After all, Beckham and Giggs can still hold on for a few more years.

He would only consider players around 1.75 meters tall if he was extremely nervous.

But in any case, 1.65 meters is still a bit lacking.

It's not that Ferguson only chose people based on height, but if all other conditions were the same, why not choose the one with the height advantage?

Given Manchester United's current influence, they can definitely find a satisfactory player within the 1.8-meter range, let alone if the standard were raised to 1.9 meters.

If they can't find a team, then no other team in the football world can find one.

This is the status of Manchester United!

The player who truly catches Ferguson's eye and is worth a tryout at Manchester United for Dartford should be... Freddie Eastwood, who possesses an unpredictable shooting touch, an incredibly powerful shot, and a well-rounded attacking arsenal!
