Volume 1: The Hero Appears, People Pay Attention Chapter 344 The Birth of a Loyal Minister (Guaranteed First Update)
Carlton Cole would become Liverpool's best winger in the decade. He was also selected by fans to be ranked 21st in the latest version of the list of "One Hundred Liverpool Stars Who Shocked the Kop Stands".
It shows his ability.
But at this time, he still took some of it away from his youth.
No one present knew what this kid would achieve in the future, not even himself. His highest wish so far is to officially become a member of Liverpool's first team.
Therefore, for the first time in his career, he represented the first team in the official Premier League. Such a game actually did not attract much attention.
Carlton Cole's debut didn't have any amazing performance, it could only be regarded as quite satisfactory.
He didn't score a goal or assist.
But for Carlton Cole, this is already a dream.
Being able to play in the Premier League, he became the first of that group of youth teams and reserve teams.
This was enough to make him proud for a long time. He never imagined that he would be compared with the passing stars in the history of Liverpool Football Club.
After Carlton Cole came on the field, Liverpool scored two more goals until the end of the game, and finally defeated Wigan Athletic with a score of 6:0.
This ended the game without any suspense.
Although there was no outstanding performance in the game, which was quite satisfactory, after returning to the locker room, Carlton Cole was congratulated by all the first-team players.
Captain Gerrard and vice-captain Chen Yingxiong. With Reina taking the lead, everyone stepped forward to hug Cole as he entered, while others clapped, cheered, and whistled nearby.
This grand welcome ceremony shocked Carlton Cole.
After being hugged, he froze in place. Somewhat overwhelmed.
"You deserve this, young man." Captain Gerrard came out. Standing at the front of the team, he said to Carlton Cole. "congratulations!"
Chen Yingxiong, who was standing behind him, winked at him and looked happy for him. He doesn't look like his senior at all. More like a best friend of his own generation.
This is the best star of the first team... He is so kind to me...
Although Carlton Cole was participating in the League Cup and FA Cup. Already understand Chen Yingxiong's character and temper. But he always thought that Chen Yingxiong's attitude was towards the entire reserve team. In fact, that's the case.
After joining the first team, Carlton Cole remained relatively low-key. Although he is the star second only to Chen Yingxiong in the reserve team, when it comes to the first team, he is nothing... Everyone here is more experienced and famous than him.
Especially his idol, Chen Yingxiong.
With such a mood in mind, he has always kept a low profile and has never shown any arrogance like a young man in front of the Liverpool first team players.
Because of this, he didn't know that he was actually very pleasing to the eyes of the first-team stars.
Only now did he see Chen Yingxiong blinking at him. He suddenly felt a sense of pride - the hero was so kind to me! He only treats me!
This kind of treatment immediately made him have the urge to burst into tears.
He was really moved.
At this moment, he made a decision - as long as the Liverpool team does not drive him away, he will never leave! Even if you are here as a substitute, no!
Because he likes the atmosphere within this team.
He really enjoyed it.
Even a big star like Chen Yingxiong is so kind to him, what else is wrong with the atmosphere of this team?
Carlton Cole is a player who has been trained by the Liverpool youth team. It stands to reason that such a player should have a deep affection for the team he cultivates. So Carlton Cole does not plan to leave Liverpool, which is a normal emotion. Any player the team has developed themselves. If he was still a fan of the team, he would not want to leave the team.
This is the same whether it is Barcelona, Real Madrid, AC Milan and other giants.
But there is a prerequisite for this, that is, the player can get enough playing opportunities in his favorite team.
Or let’s put it another way~~-< >-Net.Updated starting lineup~~ **Badly, he can become the main player in this team, even the core of the flag.
But one team only has one flag, so how can there be so many places?
Therefore, many players trained by their respective teams' youth training camps ended up being cheaper for other clubs.
Among them, Real Madrid is a typical example. Although Real Madrid's youth training level is one of the best in Spain, Real Madrid has not added new second-team players to its first team for many years. The good seeds they cultivated eventually nourished clubs of all sizes in Spain.
Even a famous family like Barcelona is the same. Think about why Piqué and Cesc Fabregas left La Masia? Don’t you think you’ll have a chance to play at Manchester United and Arsenal? Bojan, the genius who was originally considered Barcelona's new Messi, later transferred and left because he couldn't play in Barcelona.
There are many such players in world football.
But no one accused them of being disloyal to their team. Because the fault is not with them, but with the team and club that didn't give them a chance.
But there is another situation in world football.
He came from the youth training camp of his team, and was a loyal fan of the team since childhood, and finally entered the first team. However, he did not get the promise of an absolute main force, did not become the core, and was not even a banner. With such an experience, I am afraid that many loyal and brave people will also leave the team and find another way.
But this person did not, he stated that he was willing to be a substitute in the team, just because he was a fan of the team.
This person is Real Madrid's "Golden Wolf" Guti. Although he finally left Real Madrid, he was already in the twilight of his career at that time. His best years and golden years were all dedicated to Real Madrid and the bench at the Bernabeu...
This is true loyalty, although some people would say it is blind loyalty.
Carlton Cole finally made the same decision as Guti, that is, he would never leave the team even if he was a substitute.
This is amazing.
※※※
Carlton Cole's welcome in the first team was just a small episode, although it was a very important thing for him, making him smile alone for several days. However, the big stars of the first team did not take this matter to heart, so they did not know that Cole had made such a vow because of their action.
Their minds are now on the semi-final with Barcelona.
Liverpool's preparations for the match against Barcelona began after they won the championship four rounds in advance.
Although Liverpool did not have an advantage in the semi-final schedule, because they played at home first and then away, Liverpool was very confident.
When asked by reporters about the schedule, Chen Yingxiong asked him back: "Home first and then away? What's wrong?"
The reporter thought Chen Yingxiong did not know the mystery of the schedule, and began to popularize Chen Yingxiong.
"If you play at home first and then away, it will be bad for you, but good for Barcelona, because even if they lose the first game, they will return to their home court in the second round, and there will still be room for maneuver..."
Chen Yingxiong did not let the reporter continue, he interrupted him.
"That's very simple, can't we completely end the suspense in the first round?"
He looked at the reporter as if he was an idiot.
The reporter's face gradually became worse when he looked at him.
He cursed in his heart: "You are an idiot! Your whole family is an idiot! Do you think it is easy to completely destroy Barcelona in the first round?! Do you think Barcelona is the same as Dortmund?!"
The reporter was furious and hysterical in his heart, but he remained silent on the surface.
He also knew what kind of fucked up temper Chen Yingxiong had.
Whoever provokes him will be in trouble.
He didn't want to be Chen Yingxiong's target. In ancient times, people had to kill something to sacrifice before the army went out. If he couldn't help it at this time and bumped into someone's blade, he couldn't blame anyone else...
So he was a shrinking grandson, pretending not to understand what Chen Yingxiong's eyes meant.
On the surface, he remained calm, but he had a plan for how to deal with Chen Yingxiong.
The simplest way to deal with such arrogant people is to fan the flames. Report what Chen Yingxiong just said with exaggeration. I believe that with Barcelona's hatred for Chen Yingxiong, the fire will be easily provoked.
He was not worried about being attacked for distorting the facts, because the main point he said was correct, at most it was a little exaggerated...
For reporters, exaggeration is not their job? If they write a report without exaggeration, do they still have the nerve to call themselves "reporters"?
So this reporter did this without any psychological burden at all...
※※※
Chen Yingxiong certainly knew that he would get himself into trouble by saying this. However, this kind of trouble is just like a daily routine for him, especially when the opponent is Barcelona. Even if he doesn't create trouble, trouble will definitely find him.
Since the relationship is like this, why should he show gentlemanly manners? He must do his best to provoke and anger the opponent.
Then when the opponent loses his cool, he will give the opponent a fatal blow!
As the saying goes, I want to kill you and humiliate you!
This is Chen Yingxiong's fighting philosophy.
So he once again provoked a war of words between Barcelona.
He knew that the reporter would spread his words, because he said this just to let him help him spread it.
What a useful media...
If you throw a bone to it, it will run out to chase it, and bring it back to itself to claim credit after catching it. (To be continued...)
