Andy Gray is in a good mood recently.

After walking out of Eddie's office last time, he felt light and light, as if a heavy burden had been lifted off him.

He never thought that his uncle could have such a reasonable side.

From that moment on, he realized that his luck seemed to have changed. When he was preparing for the agent qualification examination, he felt that he had divine help and was even more confident about passing the exam. Compared with when he was preparing for the A-level coaching qualification examination,

The fear and trembling are completely different.

Even the little players who usually annoyed him so much that he wanted to cover their ears seemed to have become more well-behaved.

Although the recent turmoil at Leeds United inevitably made him a little angry, after all, he had long known that the club had strong external players and strong internal control, and he had been mentally prepared for this day to come, so he was relieved quickly.

It's a pity. If I had become an agent earlier and made a lot of money, I might be able to save the club now!

Well, he must admit that the good mood during this period made him a little inflated.

Since he passed the exam with certainty, it was only a matter of time before he became an official FIFA-approved agent. Therefore, he felt that he should take time to pay attention to his future employer.

The agent industry is very particular about connections and qualifications. Andy Gray, a newbie, naturally cannot get a share of the big agents. He is also not like Guardiola, Ronaldinho's brother, who has a

Relatives of superstars can live close to each other.

Oh, you can’t say that, his uncle is a superstar, but it’s a pity that he was still wearing crotchless pants when he was walking around the court.

However, Andy, who has great ambitions, does not bother to find some mediocre players in lower-level leagues. In his opinion, he must find some potential stocks that are expected to soar.

So, as a former Leeds scout and coach, he naturally turned his attention to Sopuak.

There is no need to think about Lennon and Milner. As Sopuak's most dazzling twin stars after the Young Guards, they have already been taken advantage of. What's more, Andy is quite familiar with their agents.

, even if you want to poach someone, you can’t lose that face.

Looking further down, Andy is very interested in Carlton Cole, who just joined at the beginning of this year. This black guy has become the main center of Leeds United U18 echelon. He is tall, strong and has excellent strength. He has participated in all competitions.

Scored seven goals in eleven youth team games.

When he approached Cole, the other party was also very happy, because Andy was the first agent to come to him.

Moreover, Andy was an acquaintance, and with Eddie Gray as his connection, Cole felt that Andy should be trustworthy, so he agreed to him without saying a word, and signed the contract only after Andy obtained the qualification as an agent.

"Andy, do you have any other players under your name?" After the two reached a verbal agreement, Cole began to chat with Andy again.

"No, you are the first lucky one, Carlton." Andy was a little embarrassed, but he still wanted to make a fool of himself, acting as if you were the first and took advantage.

"I heard that you recommended Lee to the team. Didn't you sign him?" Cole was a little confused.

"Lee?" Cole's question brought back Andy's memories, and he recalled the game that made him decide to change his career. Wasn't it Levi's debut?

However, Andy stopped paying attention to the youth team games after that, Levi? Did he play again later?

"You reminded me, Carlton, I will go talk to Li."

That being said, Andy decided to watch a youth team game first. After all, he only watched one Levi game and there has been no news since. Who knows if he is a flash in the pan?

※※※※※※

On Saturday, April 12, in the sixth round of the FA Youth Cup, or it can also be called the quarter-finals, the Leeds United youth team faced Southampton at home. Levi played for the Leeds United youth team for the first time.

Wait, why did this happen suddenly?

Let's turn the clock back 10 days.

After Bill's alternative enlightenment, Levi determined the direction of his efforts.

It is very simple to say that in the past year or two, his goal is nothing more than to transfer to a team that allows him to play in the first team. And to achieve this goal, he must get more opportunities to play in the youth team.

There are more outstanding performances in youth team games.

In order to play in the game, what he has to do at this stage is to use his strengths and avoid weaknesses.

His advantages are good physical fitness, a lot of running, and excellent one-on-one defensive ability. Then he will do these tasks well and only do four things on the court: running, marking, stealing, and passing.

I wasted like that against Manchester United last time.

Although the skills of dribbling, passing, and shooting are not used for the time being, they will never be abandoned in daily practice. Levi firmly believes that as time goes by, they will eventually come into use one day.

In addition, for the special training with Messi that he had been thinking about but could not use even though he already had it, he also took Lennon and Milner to train together every day, specifically training one-on-one with these two. After all, they are both speed and dishing.

Although it is not as good as Messi to lead the madman, but because it is not as good as Messi, the difficulty is just right for the current Levi.

But Milner has already trained with the first team and can only train with Levi on weekends, so Lennon is still the main training partner.

Lennon was very excited at first to have such a legitimate opportunity to abuse Levi. Although he had already shaken hands with Levi and made peace, no matter how close he was to his roommates in the dormitory, he would torture you to death while playing Dota.

Likewise, boys’ friendship is sometimes so contradictory.

However, Lennon soon discovered something was wrong.

Obviously, everyone practices from morning to night, but this guy Li Wei is still very good. Even after passing him more than ten times, he still looks high-spirited.

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

But Lennon couldn't take it anymore. Not to mention that after a day of training, he had very little energy left. Even if he was full of energy, he would definitely be exhausted by dribbling the ball one-on-one dozens of times.

And it was not only physically difficult, but also psychologically. After the initial freshness wore off, this repetitive and monotonous training almost made him want to vomit.

He even began to wonder if Li Wei was deliberately retaliating against him!

In the end, it was Levi who lured and threatened Lennon with the promise of cooking boiled meat slices on weekends, and he forced Lennon to grit his teeth and persevere.

※※※※※※

Levi's unremitting training was naturally noticed by Eddie and David. The two people who had previously complained about his negative training performance were relieved of their doubts.

Therefore, in the youth league away game against Bolton on April 5, Levi once again came on as a substitute.

At that time, there was already a new candidate for the head coach of the first team. Peter Reid, a famous player from Bolton and Everton who had coached Manchester City and Southampton, took over the Leeds United coach and served as caretaker coach until the end of the season.<

/p>

Oh, by the way, when Maradona scored the goal of the century against England in the 1986 World Cup, one of the five defensive players he passed was Peter Reid.

He lost to Liverpool 1-3 in his first league game after taking office, which disappointed many Leeds fans who had expected a coaching change to be like a knife change. But soon, in his second league game, he led Leeds United to a crazy 6-1 away game.

The victory over Charlton has rekindled hope among Leeds United fans.

This first-team victory also had a positive impact on the young players of the Leeds United youth team. Their morale was greatly boosted. Lennon and Cole pushed the young Bolton players in the nest and beat them wildly. In the first half,

It took a four-goal lead.

Therefore, for the purpose of inspecting the players, Eddie replaced three young players at the beginning of the second half, including Levi.

This is the longest official competition time he has received since his rebirth.

It's rare to encounter such a soft persimmon as Bolton. Leeds United's young players are all thinking about improving their statistics. Especially the several substitutes who come on the field, their desire to score goals is even stronger.

As a result of Leeds United's efforts, the second half turned into a half-court attack and defense, which was even more thorough than the first half. The two full-backs had almost squeezed the two original wingers into inside forwards.

The only one who can still remain calm is Levi, except for Carson who is limited by his position in front of the goal and cannot advance forward.

Levi, who was once bitten by a snake, kept in mind the lessons of the previous two games and stayed in the backcourt honestly.

However, although Bolton were weak, they were not completely powerless to fight back. Especially after Leeds United replaced Lennon and Cole, the two core figures in the frontcourt, in the second half, their control was not as terrifying as the ball possession rate showed.

Therefore, when Leeds United pressed heavily and the defense was empty, the Boltonians also found several good opportunities.

In the 61st minute, Ward was intercepted by Bolton forward Lukeman near the center circle.

Ward knew very well that there was nothing behind him, so he quickly turned around and grabbed it.

In order to get rid of Ward, Lookman immediately chose to throw the ball forward vigorously.

Unexpectedly, Li Wei, who had been paying attention to this place for a long time, caught him and easily accepted the ball sent by Lukman.

A counterattack that could have resulted in more strikes and fewer opportunities was strangled in the cradle by Levi.

In the 78th minute, Leeds United's corner kick was cleared and reached the feet of Lookman in midfield. Lookman did not hesitate, quickly dribbled the ball forward and launched a counterattack.

At this time, Levi only had center back Raheem Johnson as his teammate next to him, and four people from the opponent team were already pressing up, creating a four-on-two situation in the half.

Under such circumstances, Li Wei did not dare to rush forward and could only choose to fight and retreat.

Retreating to near the top of the penalty area, Levi could no longer retreat and stood firm. Lookman was getting closer and closer to him, and finally, it was time to make changes.

Lookman chose to pass diagonally to the right.

Levi had anticipated this move a long time ago. Because the distance was too close, the opponent had no room to shoot. If he were to pass someone, the sacrifice would be too high because the distance was too close. The most likely option would be a diagonal pass to the wing.

In the blink of an eye, Levi relied on his astonishing reaction speed to stab the ball sideways with all his strength, narrowly missing the ball and slightly changing its trajectory.

Although it was only a small change, for offensive players traveling at high speed, a small change was enough to undo all their previous efforts. Bolton winger Wood on the right had to change direction and turn around to chase the ball.

When he got the ball, it was already near the baseline, and Leeds United's left-back Adams was able to arrive calmly and destroy the ball.

Another extremely threatening counterattack was successfully eliminated by Li Wei.

Bolton's young players also failed to counterattack twice in a row and could no longer muster the courage to resist. They had no choice but to be slaughtered by others. In the end, they were defeated by the Leeds United youth team 0-10.
