Football: I am a goalkeeper, averaging 1 goal per game

After the signing session, Xu Jin returned to the club.

Today's autograph session is a way for him to understand why England is sometimes called "England"!

At a signing event, Xu Jin met three male fans who asked him to leave a hickey!

There was even a male fan who asked Xu Jin to sign his own underwear!

Fortunately, Collins, who had been standing by the side, stepped forward in time.

Otherwise, Xu Jin felt that the atmosphere at the scene would be very awkward!

After returning to the club.

Xu Jin entered his training ground.

Start to carry out your own training arrangements step by step.

Every day during the day, he trains with his club teammates.

In the evening, after washing up, enter the 【Training Ground】for training.

The task of lifting dumbbells was completed before the match against Forest U18.

Xu Jin could clearly feel that the strength of his arms had greatly improved.

At the same time, his bone density also increased to 1.45!

……

"Nottingham Forest, but a very difficult opponent!"

Tomorrow is the match between Middlesbrough and Nottingham Forest.

Before the game, at the tactical analysis meeting hosted by head coach Leonardo, Xu Jin listened attentively.

"Their U18 youth team reached the final of the FA Youth Cup last season."

"Although in the end we lost to Manchester United with a score of 1:3."

"But it created the U18 level game with the largest audience in football history, which shows the intensity of that game!"

"Coupled with the fact that their first team re-elevated through the play-offs and returned to the Premier League after 23 years of absence from the Premier League last season, the fighting will of the entire club is very high!"

"So, our game tomorrow will be very difficult!"

After Leonardo finished speaking, he picked up a marker and wrote a series of numbers on the whiteboard.

5212.

"5212! As you can see, this is the main formation of Forest U18."

"The main goalkeeper should still be Porter. Last season, he created a record of 10 clean sheets! He is a very difficult opponent!"

"However, he also has a shortcoming, that is, he is not very good at handling ground balls!"

"Lam, Xu Jin! You two must remember this."

Forward Lamb and goalkeeper Xu Jin nodded at the same time.

"Got it, coach!"

Leonardo nodded, and continued:

"Then, five defenders, with Powell and Adama on the left and right wings!"

"The characteristic of the two of them is their speed, especially Adama!"

"Although his limit speed is not as good as Xu Jin's, he has a very big advantage, that is, the physical strength that can support the whole field running!"

"This is the heat map of Adama's last 10 games made by the club's technical team. As you can see, his running range covers almost the entire stadium!"

A heat map of the stadium appeared on the LCD TV next to the whiteboard.

Among them, as Leonardo said, it is almost the same, except for the four corner areas of the court, the other areas are either red or yellow.

Xu Jin looked at the heat map and thought to himself: In a match against Forest U18, the head coach asked the club's technical team to make a heat map?Liverpool don't have this treatment!It seems that Coach Leonardo is very concerned about our game against Forest!

Middlesbrough is a small club after all.

The club does not have a dedicated technical analysis team for their youth teams.

At the same time, because there is not much attention to the youth team's games, apart from the official data of each game, except for the shooting and ball possession rate, there are no other personal ball possession rates and related data about the players on the field.

Therefore, for this heat map, Leon must have asked the technical team of the club's first team to make it hard by watching the game video.

"Then, it's their midfielder!"

"Crience!"

"You should also pay attention to this man! He is 195 meters tall and weighs 98 kilograms! As a midfielder, his ability to pass the ball and organize offense... can only be regarded as average. However, you must pay attention to his powerful long-range shots and restricted areas The ability to grab points within!"

"Last season, he played 18 times for Forest U33 and scored 6 goals, including 2 long shots and 4 headers!"

"However, he still has a dawn. Because of his size, his speed is not fast, so he basically plays stances. David, Johnson, you two should know how to do it?"

David and Johnson stood up: "Of course! Keep him out of the penalty area!"

Leonardo nodded, and continued:

"Next, there are the two strikers of the forest."

"Taylor and Ozon."

"Taylor has the characteristics of a tough playing style and good physical strength. He often steals the ball from the defender's feet."

"And Ao Song is a player with a very keen sense of smell in front of the goal!"

Having said that, Leonardo put the marker pen on the name of "Criens" and drew a forward arrow.

"Because of this kind of frontcourt match, Forest U18 often adopts offensive tactics, that is, Kriens shoots from a long distance. If they don't score, then Tek and Osong will grab the second point."

"Therefore, Xu Jin, you must pay attention. Facing their shots, if you can hug the football, you must hug it!"

"Osunta knows how to pick up the leak!"

Xu Jin nodded, expressing his understanding.

Leonardo then drew two more circles over the names of Powell and Adama.

"Secondly, the backcourt serves like a forest, and the goalkeeper Porter can't open his feet."

"He's just going to get their two speedy defenders, and then Powell and Adama come out wide."

"When those two go down the wing, it's either going to knock down the triangle and pass the ball to Cranes."

"Either you wait for Cranes to come into the box and just cross.

"So, for tomorrow's game, you must pay attention to this point of Kriens!"

……

This tactical analysis meeting lasted for six hours.

It can be regarded as setting a record when Xu entered the team.

After leaving the tactical room, Xu Jin glanced at the youth league leaderboard in the North Division in the corridor of the club, and finally understood why Leonardo was so excited today.

Today, Middlesbrough and Nottingham Forest U18s share 9 points.

However, Boro ranked first because of its goal difference advantage.

If Boro can win this match against Forest and take all 3 points, then Boro will be able to lead the standings!

For the Middlesbrough u18 youth team, this is definitely a moment that can be recorded in the history of the club!

They even managed to lead the standings!

If this continues, it is even possible to enter the additional knockout rounds of this season!

This is a result that the u18 youth team has never thought about since the establishment of the Mibao team!

In the 22-23 season, they are making history.

And as the creator of this history.

Xu Jin was naturally guarded at the very center of the crowd.

Hamilton stared at the standings: "You say, after this season, how much can we promise to be worth?"

The former main goalkeeper Terry said: "I think it must be over ten million!"

Bailey said: "Bullshit! Tens of millions are known to everyone. What we are betting now is the exact amount."

Xu Jin frowned when he heard Bailey's words, and thought in his heart: Huh?Why did you start betting all of a sudden?

David said: "Same as Bellingham, around 8000 million?"

Johnson shook his head: "I don't think it's possible! After all, Bellingham still has the blessing of a Dortmund status."

"Um……"

Hamilton nodded: "I think it should be around 2000 million!"

Terry shook his head: "How could it be so low! Xu, now we are the top player in the scoring list!"

Hamilton said: "Because...Xu is too special. After all, his main job on the field is goalkeeper, but how much transfer budget can most clubs invest in the goalkeeper position?"

It was only at this time that Terry suddenly realized: "That's right! After watching Xu's goal highlights all day today, I almost forgot that Xu is a goalkeeper!"

Hamilton nodded, and then said: "So! Xu, don't you really consider changing your position on the field? With your ability, if you change to a forward or a midfielder, I think you can definitely surpass Bellingham in time." , Create a new record for the transfer value of a player under the age of 20!"

Xu Jin chuckled.

"Forget it, I think it's pretty good now, I can keep the goal, and I can run to the frontcourt to play."

David and Johnson on the side complained at the same time: "Ha, you will have fun then, have you ever thought about the two of us? Every time you run out of the restricted area, both of us are sweating!"

"Okay, I'm tired from today's tactical analysis meeting! Go back and rest."

Xu Jin rubbed his neck while talking: "By the way, what time will we gather tomorrow?"

David said: "12 o'clock!"
