After saying goodbye to Carl, Maher went to the side of the court with most of the players to stretch their muscles. This is necessary relaxation and can reduce muscle fatigue.
Head coach Hans seems to have left early and Mr Wenger is nowhere to be seen.
The tryout matches were cruel, and Hans certainly didn't want to announce the results on the spot, and he also tried to avoid communicating and saying goodbye to those players who didn't stay.
It would be better to go back first and then call and inform them one by one.
While stretching, Maher began to think about his future.
There is basically no problem in staying in the team, but I don't know if I will be noticed by Mr. Wenger or the scouts. I think the possibility of being selected after just one game is relatively small.
He is not in a hurry. Improving his strength is the most important thing at the moment.
Without the ability, it will be useless even if you join the first team or other professional teams.
"I have already secured a good training environment and plenty of time. My new goal is to be promoted to the first team."
Maher's mentality changed and he felt a sense of security, which could be considered an improvement. At least he didn't have to worry about returning to a life of displacement.
The first thing he thought about was what skills he should practice next?
Of course he would not give up practicing long-range shooting and strength, but he had intensified the practice of these two abilities before in order to prepare for today's trial match, hoping to equip himself with some powerful means to make a big splash.
Now that the tryouts are over, if I continue to only practice these two abilities in the future, I will inevitably feel top-heavy.
He has discovered from today's game that certain abilities must be acquired early.
Not to mention the highest level of lv5, you need to at least reach the average level of lv3 professional players.
Otherwise, when he really gets to the fiercely competitive professional league, he won't be able to adapt to the most basic game rhythm and won't be able to hold the ball.
At this time, even with level 5 long-range shooting, it is powerless.
"Therefore, multi-line development is necessary."
Maher made a decision and then started to make detailed plans. He first planned to practice several basic abilities to level 3, and then select one or two of them for special upgrades to level 4 or 5.
The most correct way to grow is to develop characteristics on the basis of ensuring basic abilities.
As for the basic technical skills, there are only four types: passing, stopping, dribbling and shooting!
In terms of physical aspects, they can basically be divided into four types: strength, speed, physical fitness, and coordination!
Don't think that abilities like ball control and coordination are unimportant. On the contrary, the more basic they are, the more they are the foundation for whether you can play a good game.
If the roots don't grow well, the ball can't be stopped, and every movement is so stiff as if it's going to fall, then everything is in vain.
"Practice the ability to cut inside while dribbling, and practice the ability to cross while passing."
Maher found out the two abilities he needed most right now, and then thought about his physical condition: "As for the body, I can train strength first, and when strength reaches level 3, I can add coordination."
After thinking about all this and finishing his stretching, he stood up, drank a few sips of water, and walked towards the dormitory.
As soon as he arrived at the dormitory, Maher saw a text message on his mobile phone.
The note showed that it was Mr. Hans' number - "Come to the office."
In order to make himself appear more formal, Maher suppressed his excitement, took a shower, and changed his clothes before setting off.
At the entrance of the Kearney training base, several scouts walked out.
Jolson from Sheffield United made a call almost instantly. The new season is about to begin. Big clubs don't need to rush to strengthen their teams, but small teams don't have time to rest.
They should seize every opportunity as much as possible, even if it may not be a good opportunity.
What Jolson wanted to do was to recommend Gilbert to the club while strongly recommending the number 31.
Even if it was a little risky and hasty, he had to do it.
The resource allocation mechanism of this world has determined that teams like them need to take greater risks when selecting players.
If there is a well-recognized outstanding young player, then the clubs that want him will definitely not only be Sheffield United, Leeds and Burnley.
By then, their competitors will definitely be of similar level to Dortmund, Benfica, Ajax, etc.
The call was quickly connected, and a voice came from the other end: "Any result? The transfer window is about to close. Once you make a decision, we will contact Arsenal immediately. This is our last chance to strengthen the team."
Before Jolson could interrupt, the voice on the other end kept on talking: "The other scouts have returned one after another, and the people they brought back are not satisfactory. Gilbert, who you are watching, is our last hope."
However, he did not feel any blame, as he knew how anxious the club management was at this moment.
Just as a Burnley scout said not long ago, after failing to get promoted to the Premier League last season, many of their outstanding players chose to leave.
Most of the remaining ones are either too old or ready to retire after their contracts are completed.
I wasn't a starter before, so I want to play in the Championship for a season to improve my personal value.
They undoubtedly lack the competitiveness and motivation to impact the Premier League.
If this continues, the team will not only fail to make it to the Premier League, but will also be at risk of relegation!
"Gilbert is fine. His ability is among the best in his age group in the UK."
After waiting for a long time, Jolson finally got the chance to speak: "It's almost impossible to buy him. Wenger sat on the sidelines and watched his game today. I think he will definitely pay attention to this player."
"No need to buy! No need to buy!"
The voice on the other end was filled with helplessness and anxiety: "In fact, I don't have any hope of buying Arsenal players. As long as I can rent them for a season and survive this season, I can find a way to do the rest."
"I know, Boss."
Jolson nodded, then continued: "But in today's game, the best player is not Gilbert."
".Who is that?"
"Arsenal's number 31, someone we never paid attention to."
"Haven't you noticed? Do you have a video tape? Send it to me."
"The information for this game should be available on the Arsenal official website, but for the others, I couldn't find it."
The voice on the other end fell silent. After a long while, a voice took a deep breath and said, "How good is it?"
Jolson touched his chin, and the sharpness and violence of Maher's long-range shot emerged in his mind. "He and Gilbert have their own characteristics. I think they are players of the same level and have the same force."
The other side did not speak for a long time, as if hesitating, until more than ten seconds passed, and then it seemed that he finally made up his mind: "I believe in your vision. In fact, if I don't believe in you anymore, I will have no one to rely on.
"I'll contact Arsenal, you don't have to worry about the rest, come back quickly, oh no, you just wait there and come back with the players!
"If the players you recommend can really help the team, believe me, I will love you forever."
Jolson couldn't help laughing. A chill ran down his back. "Forget the last one, Boss."
After hanging up the phone, he looked at the entrance of the Kearney training base, his expression slowly turning into melancholy.
He doesn't know whether the players recommended to the team this time can help the team, nor does he know whether the team can turn the crisis into safety this season.
No, his first concern should be whether the team's sporting director can loan the two players from Arsenal.
