Chapter 30 Vidic(1/2)

 Levi's troubles are naturally different from Suker's. He is certainly not unfamiliar with the rules of the game. As for the rhythm of the game, Levi, who has adapted to the fast pace of England, will not have difficulty adapting to the level of the Mainz youth team.

The problem lies in his control of his body.

Oh, this of course does not mean that he has lost control of his body after soul penetration, but it means that after a summer of training, he is somewhat uncomfortable with his body, which has become significantly stronger.

It’s not difficult to understand. When you suddenly change from a skinny bamboo pole to a fat man, you will also find that the originally easy movements suddenly become difficult.

Of course, Levi is not so exaggerated. The changes brought about by his sharp decrease in body fat rate are probably that he used to use three points of force to take off the ball, but now he has to use four points of force; he used to run three steps per second, but now the same force takes two.

You can only run five steps per second.

In normal life, this change is not even noticeable at all, but on the ever-changing court, it is enough to make him feel like a different person.

He felt that no matter what action he made, it was a beat slower than he expected. Don't underestimate this slow beat. If you are slower when dribbling the ball, you may not be able to avoid the opponent's tackle; when intercepting,

If you take a slow shot, your opponent will take advantage of you.

All in all, in the few minutes after Levi came on the stage, he felt quite powerless.

It's like the Jedi Knights are old, their lightsabers are worn out and aging, and they will inevitably lose their power. At this time, they need a bottle of Force God... Uh-huh, no, Levi is the other way around. He should be unable to do his job.

The body becomes stronger, but the consciousness cannot keep up.

……

"It's just a little trouble," Tuchel responded to Klopp with a smile. "When Li adapts to the changes in his body, he will recover naturally."

"No, no, Thomas," Klopp waved his hand, "You know, I want more than just his recovery."

"Well, it can't be done in a short time," Tuchel said with a frown, "Can you wait? Can the first team wait?"

"Before the winter break, this is the bottom line I give you," Klopp became serious. "Before then, I want to see a core figure who can support the first team's midfield!"

"You really gave me a difficult problem..." Tuchel stared at the field, thoughtfully.

……

At this moment, the situation on the field changed again.

Originally, because Levi was in trouble, the substitute side fell into a clear disadvantage again, but now, the situation seems to have reversed.

The key to the turnaround still lies with Levi.

Although the changes in his body were unexpected and did cause trouble for more than ten minutes, was Levi a guy who couldn't get up after falling?

From the first time he was intercepted while dribbling the ball, he was looking for countermeasures.

And now, he has found it.

Yes, I can't adapt to the changes in my body in such a short period of time. I can't break through, steal the ball, and it's even difficult to pass the ball. So, I won't do these things.

This is not a retreat, but a change in strategy. He can't do these detailed tasks for the time being, but his physical fitness and athletic ability are still there.

Don’t forget what he did to make his fortune.

You know, in defense, many times as long as he runs into position, he is a threat to the attacker. With his excellent physical fitness and prediction, he can always appear in the most dangerous position at the first time. Although he does not dare to take a shot,

To put it bluntly, even if you put up a pole in that position, it would be fatal!

Soon, he became a thick and airtight wall in his own backcourt, curbing the opponent's offensive momentum.

After the defense was good, he also improved in the offense.

If you can't dribble, it doesn't matter. Just run to the most suitable position and handle it with one kick.

So, we saw a Levi who never sticks to the ball, but is always active at the front of the penalty area. Every time he receives the ball, he will deal with it immediately, either by sending a quick pass or with a heavy shot. Although

He can't dribble, but because he always receives the ball in dangerous areas, just one kick is enough to create a threat.

Finally, in the 24th minute after he came on the field, Levi was about 23 meters away from the goal in front of the penalty area. Following Giroud's counterattack, he hit a powerful long-range shot without stopping the ball, breaking the goal.

The opponent's goal also completely destroyed the morale of the main team.

Seeing Levi like this, Tuchel smiled, turned around and punched Klopp on the shoulder:

"Okay, Jurgen, it seems that your question is not too difficult..."

"Hahahaha!"

The two looked at each other and laughed.

……

Generally speaking, Giroud and Levi's debut in the youth team was quite successful, although Levi did not actually meet his original expectations.

As for Suker, in any case, his strange behavior did not affect his signing. I don’t know if it was because his physical fitness was so unbelievable that Tuchel couldn’t bear to part with it. After all, he still succeeded in becoming a Mainz player.

A member of the youth team, but now he can only train alone.

So, naturally, Levi and Giroud decided to invite Suk and Andy to have a good meal together in the evening to celebrate.

Although Su Ke still looks cold, but having just received a contract and real money, he will naturally not refuse this kind of dinner. After all, it can save a meal.

Here!

During the dinner, Andy smiled mysteriously after congratulating his three young players:

"Li, do you know what the results of my trip to Russia were?"

When Andy said this, Levi remembered that after the former came back from Russia, he first raced with Su Ke and then reported to the club. He really forgot to ask about this.

"Tell me, who did you sign this time?" Levi put down the bread in his hand and asked with interest.

"On the list you gave me, I only signed one person."

Hmm?

This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading!

Then why do you still act like you have achieved a lot of results?

Andy continued:

"I signed the first person on your list - Nemanja Vidic, and he has a strong desire to transfer!"

"Also, I gave Nemanja's video to Jurgen today, and just before dinner, Jurgen called me."

At this point, Andy paused and gave up.

However, Li Wei's curiosity was aroused and he consciously praised him.

"What did the boss say?"

Andy smiled proudly and then said:

"Jurgen said they have decided to make an offer to Spartak Moscow!"

With a "clang" sound, the fork in Giroud's hand fell on the table.

"How could it be so fast?" Giroud asked in surprise.

You know, a team's decision to recruit players cannot be decided in a short while. It must go through a long period of inspection and screening. A situation like what Andy said, let alone encounter it, Giroud Lian

Never heard of it!

"If it's him, I don't think there's anything surprising," Levi said. "The boss must have seen Vidic's strength."

"That's right!" Andy slapped the table, startling everyone, "Nemanja's strength is definitely not worse than Leo's, how could he be in a place like Moscow?"

The Leo in Andy's mouth is naturally Leeds United's number one central defender at that time - Rio Ferdinand.

The 26-year-old Ferdinand is already capable of competing for the top spot in the world, but Levi knows very well that Andy is not exaggerating. Vidic, who later became Ferdinand's best partner, is by no means inferior to the former.

Therefore, Andy was able to sign him and successfully encourage him to transfer, which really surprised Levi.

In the list that Levi gave him, the order of ranking was actually very particular. The one ranked first was usually the one with the highest achievements in the future, but it was also the one that Levi thought was the most difficult to sign, such as in France.

The first one on the list is Franck Ribery.

As for the Russian Super League, there are not many stars that Levi has an impression of. The first one is naturally Vidic who plays for the traditional giants Spartak Moscow in the Russian Super League at this time.

However, he did not hold out much hope for this, because Vidic is already 23 years old and must have been famous for a long time. The difficulty of signing must not be low; on the contrary, several people after Vidic, Arshavin, Akin

In Levi's opinion, Feev, Pavlyuchenko and Skrtel are more confident.

But the reality was exactly the opposite of what he expected. Arshavin was already the top star of Zenit St. Petersburg. The 19-year-old Akinfeev had already played for the CSKA Moscow first team two years ago and was the youngest player on the team.

The young talents who are valued by the media, Pavlyuchenko and Skrtel have also made their mark in their respective teams.

Moreover, the first three are all native Russians and have no intention of changing agents outside their home country. Skrtel just transferred this year and has no intention of changing agencies.

On the contrary, it was Vidic. Although he came to Spartak Moscow for a record-breaking transfer fee for a defender in the Russian Premier League, his first season was not pleasant due to injuries, unsuitability and other reasons, so he signed with Andersen.

Dee Gray hit it off immediately, fired his agent and joined Andy, after all the latter promised to recommend him to the five major leagues.

I have to say that Levi and Andy were really lucky this time. If it comes to next season in the next half year (the Russian Super League starts the new season in the spring), Vidic will become the absolute core of the team's defense.

And he will soon be spotted by Ferguson.

By then, let alone Mainz and Klopp, even if Andy wants to be his agent, he may not be able to succeed.
