Chapter 69 Activating Torres

The contract between Torres and Atletico Madrid has expired. In fact, the old club is just taking in Torres and does not want this child to continue to be displaced.

Now, Torres has a better home, and so does his own wishes, Atletico Madrid is naturally willing to let go.

In the end, Tottenham officially announced on January 23 that the Spanish holy boy, T9, came to White Hart Lane.

Torres' transfer fee is 10 million euros, but to be honest, he is not worthy of this price in his current state. You must know that when he left Chelsea, although he did not disclose the transfer fee, according to the English media, AC Milan only used 4 million euros took away the FMVP player who was once the European Cup final.

Mr. Wang, who was once a sensational 50 million bid, now has a low-key transfer of 10 million. I have to lament that the years have passed.

The efficiency of the Torres family is very high. They arrived in London on January 26 and were personally greeted by the sports director Fox to show their importance.

With regard to housing and other living issues, Fox led the family to solve them. With this help, many unnecessary troubles were reduced.

And Torres was a little flattered by the kindness expressed by Tottenham.

In professional football, strength speaks for itself.

When he was in such a sluggish state, Tottenham were still willing to "take in" himself, and he could receive such courtesy, which Torres did not expect.

After solving the housing problem, the Torres family was resettled.

Fox relayed to Torres that he needed a Feb. 1 report.

But Torres obviously couldn't wait any longer. After solving the housing problem, he threw all the trivial matters to his wife and hurried to Tottenham's training base.

He needs to prove one thing.

 …

In Tottenham's training ground, a training match is in progress.

The main substitute players from both sides are mixed and matched, but judging from the score, it is obvious that the yellow vest side temporarily has the advantage.

Torres, who reported on the first day, also appeared here. After an active warm-up, he stood on the sidelines to observe the training match.

His eyes focused more on the black-haired boy.

This Chinese who is now known as a European-level genius midfielder!

Looking at the running black-haired boy in the arena,

Torres showed a hint of surprise.

In Yi Le's midfield, he will not focus on himself too much. He knows how to cooperate with the striker and how to pass the ball comfortably.

This midfielder is obviously good news for every striker.

With Yi Le passing the ball again and again, the Korean made a crazy breakthrough on the right.

Every pass of Yi Le will fully cooperate with Sun Xingmin's strengths, allowing him to have enough sprint distance to take advantage of the opponent's speed.

After only watching the game for ten minutes, Torres had to admit that the Chinese was too much of a threat in the midfield.

This guy is a fort!

He has a lot of control and passes the ball with precision!

If it is an opponent, Torres really has enough headaches, but obviously he doesn't have to worry about it, because such a powerful player is his teammate!

"how do you feel?"

Just as Torres was concentrating on observing the arena, a voice suddenly sounded.

He turned his head and looked over, and found Boas standing beside him.

For Boas, Torres' mentality is a bit complicated.

Chelsea's terrible 'dressing room conflict' actually had its share.

At that time, all the starting point of Boas was to "activate Torres", so he recruited Mata and other players, and at the same time suppressed Lampard and other old-school players.

The reason why Boas won the support of Chelsea chairman Abramovich was also because Abramovich liked Torres so much at the time.

Torres shook his head, no longer thinking about these old things, looked at the stadium in front of him, and replied: "A great midfield lineup!"

There was a proud look on the corner of Boas's mouth. This is the midfield configuration he personally formed.

Whether it is Dele Alli or Elkeson, they are all top midfielders at the core level.

It's just that there is a monster in Tottenham's midfield to suppress them.

Boas said with a hint of amusement in the corner of his mouth, "Do you think Yi can activate you?"

"Please!" Torres raised his hands, made a gesture of surrender, and shook his head: "Don't mention this word, we have suffered enough for this."

Ha ha ha ha ha ha ha.....

Boas laughed heartily.

"Let's try it out?"

"no problem."

Boas clapped his hands loudly, interrupted the training match, and was anxious for the players to gather.

Yi Le and the others gathered, and they naturally saw a man standing in Boas, wearing a Tottenham training uniform, with short blond hair and freckles on his face.

The former Spanish Holy Child, Fernando Torres.

Both sides were looking at each other. At this time, Boas briefly introduced Torres, and then remixed the two teams to start the training match.

However, Yi Le did not play in this training match.

After the two teams started the match, Boas grabbed Yi Le's shoulders and said, "Observe Torres carefully. Whether you can activate him or not depends on you."

 …

The two stood on the sideline together, observing Torres' performance and occasionally talking.

Yi Le stared at Torres, who was once known as 'the most scoring center on the planet'.

Torres' playing style is a stand-up striker. If you let him break through, he may not be a good player, but let him stand in the penalty area and wait for the ball to maximize Torres' high level of stopping skills.

Yi Le hung the towel around his neck, held an energy drink in his hand, and squeezed it from time to time, but his eyes were fixed on the frontcourt.

He saw Torres running back and forth in the penalty area a little blindly. This may be due to his inability to adapt to Tottenham's tactics, and it is also a demon.

Once, because his teammates couldn't send him a comfortable pass, he often came to the middle circle to catch the ball.

This situation completely obliterated Torres' ability.

At the same time, Yi Le saw another problem.

He said to Boas on the side: "Elkerson has squeezed Torres' space too much, and he can't rush."

Torres' speed has always been good at it, but because of the reason Elkeson was ahead, Torres couldn't fully display his speed.

Afterwards, Yi Le saw Torres receive the ground pass, but the turning position was firmly stuck.

Yi Le couldn't help frowning and said: "He doesn't like this kind of pass, he should be better at that kind of high-altitude pass, preferably the kind of pass that can be kicked and get rid of directly."

"There is a problem with his mentality, his shots are not decisive, and he is not confident enough!"

Ten minutes later, Yi Le suddenly said in surprise: "His movement has caught up with our rhythm. He is very sensitive to tactics!"

Tottenham's tactics are total attack and total defense, the running position is very large, and the running position needs to be completed quickly during the rapid running process.

This is an extremely complex tactical system, but Torres was able to move correctly in just over ten minutes.

Although many of his moves seem to be half a beat, but this is already remarkable.

Upon hearing this, Boas said with a smile: "This is an old player. He has a strong ability to accept new tactics, because they have been exposed to too many tactical systems in their careers, and they can understand some of them by tapping around."

After finishing speaking, he turned to look at Yi Le and asked, "Are you sure?"

Yi Le wiped off the sweat on his face and said, "I'm not sure, I need to go out and try."

"very good."

 …

Torres is very disappointed, judging from his previous performance, his situation has not improved.

He kicked very uncomfortable!

He felt like a relic out of step with today's tactics.

At this time, he doesn't even remember the thrill of scoring goals in Liverpool.

Torres walked back with his head on his head. Suddenly, he felt someone tap his shoulder.

He turned his head and looked over, only to see a simple and honest smiling face.

"Want to score?"

Torres froze.

Yi Le looked at the other party with a dazed look, thinking that he couldn't understand English, so he repeated it in Spanish again.

Torres hurriedly waved his hand and said, "I can understand English, but what should you say?"

Yi Le smiled and repeated again: "Want to score a goal?"

think!

Too much to think about!

Torres looked at Yi Le suspiciously, and asked, "Do you have a solution?"

Yi Le chuckled and asked, "Do you trust me?"

Forehead.....

As a teammate, he should naturally believe it.

Moreover, Yi Le's recent performance can be said to be the top midfielder in Europe. Such a midfielder should be trustworthy.

Torres nodded subconsciously.

Yi Le smiled and said, "Then you run to the most familiar and most secure position, don't worry! The ball will definitely arrive!"

What a big tone!

Torres felt amused. He was about to complain when he suddenly felt the atmosphere around him suddenly change.

The defensive strength of the entire opponent's half began to shrink sharply, and Tottenham's No. 15 player, who had caused him a lot of trouble before, passed by him cursing.

"Shit! Why did Yi run to the opposite side?" Eric Dale groaned depressedly with his waist in his hands.

During the training match, the last thing Tottenham players want is to be placed opposite Yi Le, especially the defensive players.

Because they are too aware of how much offensive pressure Yi Le brings.

Even in the training match, their defensive ability soared due to the brutality of their own midfielder.

"Don't worry about Yi, remember to keep an eye on the frontcourt!"

"Our midfield doesn't shoot! We just need to contain the strikers!"

"come on! Come on!"

"Don't make Yi too proud!"
