Chapter 44 Initial Training
"Morning, Victor."

Early the next morning, when Victor relied on the laws of his own biological clock, he woke up from his sleep, washed up again, and changed into the training clothes provided by the Arsenal club.Go out of your room and walk to the dining room next to the living room on the first floor.There, the staff of the Arsenal club have delivered breakfast to each dormitory building.

Just when Victor was holding a tray in his hand, thinking about what to eat in the morning.The voice of greeting immediately sounded around.

"Good morning." Victor immediately turned his head to look in the direction of the voice.At the same time, he also greeted the person who greeted him.

The person who greeted Victor was Merida from Spain, and he was also holding a tray in his hand.But he didn't stare at the early thinking like Victor did.Instead, he quickly picked up a few slices of bread and put them into the toaster.Then while waiting for the bread to be baked, I picked up some ham slices, a cup of coffee, and some vegetable and fruit salads.

"Victor," Merida said kindly when seeing Victor who was still suffering from "difficulty in choosing":
"Try these hams, it's not the best Iberian ham, but the taste of this ham reminds me of the sun in Catalonia, which is what England lacks the most."

"Yeah," Victor nodded immediately when he heard Merida's words, and couldn't help being amused by Merida's way of complaining about the weather in England in these two sentences.

But in the end, Victor was still not like Merida. Although he also sandwiched some bread, it was not the sliced ​​bread that was baked in the toaster like Merida.It's the kind of small round hard bread that's also used for sandwiches.There are also some eggs and fried bacon, as well as juice and water.

Then, Victor held the dinner plate and sat opposite Merida.

Victor and Merida just sat down and were not ready to chat with each other.Others also lived in this dormitory building, and other Arsenal youth team players also came one after another.

For a while, the voices of "Good morning" in the small restaurant came one after another.

"Victor," Merida quickly finished eating the slices of bread with ham, picked up a fruit and vegetable salad, and said to Victor who had finished the bread in his hand and was drinking juice while eating:
"I suddenly remembered something?"

Merida's English still has a very strong Spanish accent, so Victor didn't sound so comfortable.But it was still possible to tell what Merida was talking about.Then, Victor said:
"Merida, you can speak Spanish. My mother is Portuguese and I speak Portuguese, so I can understand most of Spanish."

"That's really great." Merida smiled immediately, just like the winter sunshine in Barcelona, ​​which made people feel warm.Then, Merida immediately switched to Spanish and said:

"It seems that Jack has a very bad impression of you. Last night, Teo and I called Jack who lived in another dormitory building and asked him to come to say hello to you. But not only did he not come, but he also Hang up the phone right away."

After hearing Merida's words, Victor suddenly didn't know how to answer Merida's words.After all, from the system, Victor learned that Jack Wilshere had a bad impression of him, even reaching the point of "hate".But don't those of you who are Jack Wilshere's teammates.Didn't you notice it at all?
"But Victor," Merida then began to read brokenly: "I think Jack may feel a little jealous of your worth, after all, even Special Olympics' transfer fee is not as good as yours. But don't hate Jack , he's a very conscious guy..."

Well, well, Victor suddenly remembered that the Merida in front of him was Spanish.This kind of thinking is not comparable to that of a careless young man from England.But Victor didn't want to explain anything to Merida. For example, Jack Wilshere is not like you, and he has a dislike for me.Wait for such words.

So Victor hurriedly drank the juice and water in his hand in two gulps.Then he spoke, speaking in Spanish that is not so standard and proficient, but can speak a little:

"I think we should go to the training ground. After I signed yesterday, the coach also told me the training time."

"Ah..." Merida's words were interrupted by Victor, but he heard Victor say the training time again.Therefore, in Victor's eyes, Merida is like a primary school student who notices that the students have already started class, so he wanders at the door of the classroom, planning to sneak into the classroom when the teacher turns around to write something on the blackboard.

"Okay, let's go." Victor stood up from his seat after clearing the plate in front of him, and said to Merida with the plate.

Just like the students in the university who go to class in groups according to the dormitory, the dormitories of the Arsenal youth team basically go to the youth team training in the Kearney base in pairs in each dormitory. field.However, the weather in England basically rains twice a day, each time for about half a day.

Therefore, following his roommates in the same dormitory building, Victor walked towards the youth team's indoor training ground.

When I entered the indoor training ground, I went directly to the locker room to change clothes.Well, Arsenal Club is indeed a big club, although Fulham Club's training base also built its own indoor training ground for youth teams and first-year teams.But even if it is the indoor training ground of the first team, the locker room is definitely not as luxurious as the one that belongs to the Arsenal youth team's indoor training ground.Not to mention the showers and relaxation pool.

After changing the sneakers, take off the rain-wet coat, and put it in the place where the coat is dried.Victor kept saying hello to the Arsenal youth players, who should now be called "teammates", around him.Then walked to the training ground.

Some people in the training ground have already started doing warm-up exercises, leg presses, stretching, and juggling the ball.There are also a few people passing the ball to each other.And Victor was always by his side, starting from eating, and then came together, and Merida, who came together, and the lockers in the locker room were all connected together, invited him to help each other stretch.

Suddenly, a pointed voice sounded:

"Hey, isn't this the 'big star' Victor Lee? Did he go to the wrong training ground?"

Victor followed the voice and looked, well, he is a bit shorter than himself, his hair is not cut too short, and the long one looks a little "cute".Yes, that is Arsenal's "Prince William", Jack Wilshere.

Maybe because he felt that Victor was much taller than himself, Jack Wilshere walked towards Victor, but he didn't walk to Victor's side.Instead, they stopped at a distance from Victor.Then, Jack Wilshere looked Victor up and down.He spoke with a trace of arrogance, and said in a tone of disdain for Victor:
"How can a 'big star' worth £800 million not even know the training ground?"

There was no laughter that matched Jack Wilshere as expected.Victor looked at Jack Wilshere, who was standing in front of him. Although he was some distance away, he still held his head up and put his hands on his waist.Then look around again.

Well, it seems that Jack Wilshere is not so popular, not to mention that there is no close friend around him, even when he "bullys" a new player, there is no one who fits with him.On the contrary, there were some non-white players like Denilson and the same dormitory building as Victor, with expressions like "Come on Victor, kill this nasty kid."

On the contrary, when Jack Wilshere looked at Victor with provocative eyes, he immediately walked over to a tall man who was also wearing the training uniform of the Arsenal club. In that game, Victor also saw He is a teammate of the youth team who sits on the bench off the field.

And he immediately grabbed Jack Wilshere's arm, and said while pulling, "Jack, do you want to be called to the office by the boss again? Isn't it because of this last time..."

"Let me go, Matthews. This time is different." Jack Wilshere struggled to break free from the pull of the person who called him "Matthews".Then Jack Wilshere's eyes, which were very large in his face, rolled away.Then he opened his mouth and said:
"Victor, wait for me, I have you to look at during team practice." After speaking, Jack Wilshere immediately took his own two legs, which looked so short due to his height. .Angrily walked to the other side.

Well, Victor can be said to be all kinds of confused now.Although Victor was mentally prepared for Jack Wilshere, he knew that he had a bad impression of himself.But I didn't expect him to have such a personality, why is he like this.And the tall man who came to drag Wilshere, who was called "Matthews" by Wilshere, walked in front of Victor.First, he stretched out his hand, and then said:
"Hi Victor, you played very well in that game. I'm Matthews, Matthews Conley. Welcome to join us."

"Hi Matthews." Victor also extended his hand and shook hands with Matthews Conley in front of him.And then Matthew S Conley was heard saying:
"Jack has such a personality, since he was a child. After coming to Arsenal, because the boss has always had great expectations of him, his personality has gradually become more..."

"It's okay." Victor immediately said to Matthew S Conley, who had an embarrassed expression on his face, that he didn't care about Jack Wilshere.However, the sudden whistle announced that Victor had come to the Arsenal youth team.The first training session starts now.
