The chill wind of Manchester had a different bite after the Champions League triumph. It felt sharper, reminding Nathan that even as champions, the Premier League grind was relentless. His Overall Rating: S+ was a badge of honor, but also a bullseye. Every team wanted to be the one to knock off the double winners.
His Masterful Dribbling and Unparalleled Agility (from his Glide of Messi (50%) mastery) felt incredibly natural now, an instinct rather than a skill. He could weave through congested training drills with a fluidity that made teammates gasp. He also spent time delving into the Legacy Archive, especially the "Art of Space Creation," learning how the legends moved without the ball, drawing defenders, and opening up unseen pathways. It was like learning a secret language of football.
