Coach, I want to play football!

Spain is different from the Premier League. There is a short holiday around Christmas to rest, which is about half a month.

So when the time came around Christmas, the Villarreal club also had a holiday.

The fact that the team is on holiday doesn't mean that Ye Qi is on holiday.I am alone in a foreign country, and I am not particularly cold about Christmas.

So using this time, he simply carried out additional training.During the day, I practiced in an empty training ground, and at night I went to work in a restaurant.

Ye Qi lived a two-point and one-line life in a small seaside town in Spain...

Because the coach was also on vacation, Ye Qi didn't know what he should train.

Simply continue to practice your free kick skills and physical fitness.

"My stamina is indeed not bad, but my explosiveness, speed and physical fitness are still far behind my teammates."

Ye Qi also knows his own shortcomings, so the morning training is usually to tie a huge tire around his waist with a rope, and then drag the tire to run.

It's not just running around, there is a ball under your feet, and you can also practice your dribbling ability by the way.

In the afternoon, I would use an obstacle in front of the goal to act as a simulated human wall, and then take a free kick outside the penalty area.

It has been five months since he came to the Villarreal youth team, and Ye Qi was surprised to find that his abilities were not limited to the system.

For example, the attribute value of the system can only be obtained in upgrades or rewards, but he found that he can also improve his attribute value through training.

For example, the original free kick attribute was only 35 points, but after his deliberate training in the past two months, it has risen to 38 points.

Although there is only a 3-point improvement, it is not obvious in terms of ability.

But for Ye Qi, this at least means that as long as he trains seriously and hard, there is still hope to improve his ability.

The Huaxia people have a characteristic. They are not afraid of hardship or tiredness, and they are not afraid of despair. What they fear is that they will not see any hope.

And now, Ye Qi saw his own hope!

This 3-point improvement in free kick ability is even happier than his five-point attribute value.

"Huh? Isn't the team on vacation? Why are there still people training?"

On the sidelines of the training ground, a group of people were visiting Villarreal's training base. One of them looked at Ye Qi who was "pulling tires" on the training ground and asked.

Ye Qi didn't notice that there were people around, he just gritted his teeth and dragged the tires to dribble, sweat dripping from his head onto the lawn one by one.

Leading the tour was Ruben Uria, the first-team assistant coach and temporary lead after Velazquez's dismissal.

Uriah didn't quite understand the situation, and turned to look at youth team coach Alvaro.

"His name is Ye Qi, and he is a Chinese player. He usually has the habit of extra training. He lives alone in Spain."

"In his words, there is nothing to do when he is on vacation, so before the vacation, when he applied for a vacation from me, he used the training base for some basic and maintenance training." Alvaro said.

The middle-aged man who visited said with a smile: "Is this sweaty appearance still basic?"

"How is this kid?"

Alvaro certainly understood the meaning of the opponent, "19 years old, the position is a center forward, but the inside forward on the wing can also play, but the pass is relatively poor, and the stopping technique is not good. Generally speaking, the technique is a bit bad, but There is still room to grow.”

"But the training is very hard, and extra training is his normal state. He also understands his shortcomings, so he is already trying to make up for his shortcomings subconsciously."

"Besides...he has been in the youth team for less than half a year, and he has improved very fast. Don't look at his current technical ability. It was even worse when he first came to the youth team."

"In addition to his hard work and hard work, the advantages are that he runs very well without the ball. Although he can't pass and catch the ball, he often finds his teammates to cooperate. He can often run out of space in the game, and his shooting skills... average Yeah, but it's weird to average more goals per game than some strikers who shoot better than him."

Speaking of Alvaro, he directly opened his little book, "In the past three months, he has played a total of seven games, four games as a substitute and three starts. A total of [-] minutes of playing time, scoring three goals and one Assist."

The middle-aged man who visited was a little surprised, "This statistic is not like that of a player with poor skills."

"Indeed, this kid was only a substitute in the youth team at the beginning. We have been short of personnel recently, so we have given him a lot of opportunities. I didn't expect this guy to seize the opportunity to directly improve from a marginal player to a regular player. Now he is the number two striker in my team," Alvaro said.

As Ye Qi's coach, he could almost see Ye Qi's progress in the past five months.

At first, Alvaro thought that after one year of training, Ye Qi could become a qualified youth team player, and in two years, he should be able to become a main force of the youth team or a substitute for the b team.

Unexpectedly, this guy was about to become the main force of the youth team in just five months.

The middle-aged man nodded, took out a small notebook from his pocket, and wrote and drew on it.

Outsiders didn't know what he was writing, only Alvaro saw a name on it-Gerard Moreno!

This is a young man he brought out in the youth team, and now he is playing in the b team.

Alvaro looked at Ye Qi who stopped to rest on the field and was wiping off his sweat.Xin said that this kid will probably face a great opportunity soon, and I don't know if he can seize this opportunity like he did in the youth team.

Ye Qi wiped off the sweat with a towel, and added some water.He turned his head to look in the direction of the sidelines, "Huh? Could it be that I felt wrong?"

When he was just training, he felt as if someone was looking at him, and he always felt that someone was watching him from the sidelines, but when he turned his head, there was no one outside the grille of the training ground.

Scratching his head, he thought it might be his own illusion.After a short rest, the next training session started again.

After finishing the day's extra training, it was already sunset time. After taking a shower and changing clothes, Ye Qi set off for the restaurant where he worked.

It's the Christmas holidays and the restaurant is doing very well.So Ye Qi now besides cleaning the dishes in the kitchen late at night, also serves as a waiter in the lobby during the peak dinner time.

The restaurant owner, Pazashino, was also more generous, giving him an extra salary of [-] euros this month.

This reminded Ye Qi of Madrid's stingy Grant, who is also a restaurant owner and also a Spaniard, why is there such a big difference?

For some reason during this time, Ye Qi always felt that his heartbeat would inexplicably speed up whenever he got close to Elena.So always deliberately avoid each other, try to reduce the two alone together.

"Oh...... When will the holiday end!" Ye Qi sighed in his heart.

After the holiday is over, the restaurant business will not be so busy, and I will devote more time to training.

The most important thing is that after the holiday, Elena will go to school in Valencia next door, and she hasn't graduated from university yet!
