My football skills are so strong! I am the king of control

Chapter 11

In just a moment, the training ground was silent. Only Lin Chen continued to dribble the ball and launch a counterattack as if no one was around.

Wijnaldum was dribbled past and Lin Chen faced the back line with only defender Gomez left in front of him.

After continuous bicycle shaking, cut to the left!

He raised his foot as if to attack, and Gomez rushed forward to grab the ball.

But in the next second, Lin Chen turned around and dunked!

Another tap and another knock!

The perfect rhythm connection actually shook Gomez hard!

Klopp stared at Lin Chen. What followed was the most critical moment to test a player.

Klopp's team has always emphasized one point during the Dortmund period:

"I don't care how well you dribble the ball, or how beautifully you dribble past the defense, or how good your pass is."

"I only look at your finishing. If you don't have the ability to kill the game, you will never be a unique player."

After Lin Chen passed Gomez, although his body staggered a little, he relied on his strong core ability to hold Gomez on his side and forced his way into the penalty area.

Facing Mignolet who had already left the goal and tried his best to block his shooting space, Lin Chen could hardly see any shooting opportunities.

It was a small field with six players and a very small goal. In addition, Mignolet attacked in time and performed a standard blocking move, which not only blocked the ball on the ground, but also blocked the high shot with his hand.

Although there seemed to be no space, Lin Chen focused his eyes and then lightly touched with his toes.

It was this subtle, light touch that actually enabled him to pass through the opponent's crotch!

Mignolet was hit in the crotch, his body instantly lost confidence and he fell backwards.

Lin Chen accelerated from the side, flashed past Mignolet, took two steps and pushed the ball flat, scoring steadily into the empty goal!

Group A leads by one to zero!

Everything happened so fast that Group B hadn't even recovered until Lin Chen scored the goal.

Wijnaldum looked at Mignolet, who looked at Gomez, and all three of them had a look on their faces like, 'What just happened?'

Assistant coach Kravitz was so excited that he danced with joy.

"Boss!"

“Boss!!!”

"baby!!!"

Kravitz tried his best to lower his voice and seemed to have taken stimulants next to Klopp, but Klopp's face was calm at this time.

"What are you excited about?"

"Don't you see many young people like this in Dortmund?"

"Whether it is just a flash of inspiration or whether he really has this ability, we still need to observe."

Klopp spoke calmly and his facial expression was calm, but Kravitz keenly noticed the hand holding the whistle.

"Boss, if you're not excited, why are your hands shaking? Do you have Parkinson's disease?"

Klopp coughed twice and whispered: "If you keep talking nonsense, I will deduct one week's salary from you."

The threat was effective and Kravis immediately shut up.

Wijnaldum walked towards his own half while staring at Lin Chen.

After scoring the goal, the young man not only did not celebrate, but also did not feel any excitement. Instead, he joked with his teammates as if he had been in the first team for a long time.

There's a sophistication about him that doesn't belong to a 17-year-old.

After a while, the training continued, and Klopp seemed to have only Lin Chen in his eyes.

He wanted to know whether the young man in front of him was really so good at confrontation and had a certain ability to advance.

But as the pace of the game became faster and faster, Lin Chen not only did not fall behind, but still showed strong confrontation in the middle lane.

Wijnaldum looked at Lin Chen, gritting his teeth in anger. As a first-line player, tall and strong, Wijnaldum has always been responsible for intercepting, stealing and sweeping in Liverpool's midfield.

But now, facing a young man who had just been promoted, he was completely suppressed in the confrontation that he was best at.

As more and more goals were scored, the atmosphere in the confrontational training began to become lively.

It was originally an internal confrontation within the team. After Klopp recorded the data in the early stage, there was no need to confront each other anymore. Lin Chen became more and more relaxed as the game went on, and finally the one-hour long group training confrontation ended.

Klopp was holding a record form containing the scores of midfielders, and Lin Chen was ranked first.

But he did not announce it. Instead, he gave a few simple instructions and announced the end of the training.

"There will be the last physical test before the start of the season in the afternoon. All players must participate. The items include physical fitness test, strength test and basic physical health coefficient."

"It officially starts at 3 o'clock, everyone please don't be late!"

After Klopp's announcement, the players left quickly, with Ojo following closely behind Lin Chen.

"No buddy, you're too awesome!"

“Are you a monster? How on earth did you manage to stand up to Wijnaldum? Can you teach me?!”

On the way back to the hotel, Ojo kept pestering Lin Chen.

But Lin Chen just smiled and evaded the question. Any normal person would not be able to explain such a thing to others.

Since he was only temporarily transferred to the first team, the club did not arrange a hotel for Ocho. In order to facilitate the physical test in the afternoon, he stayed in Lin Chen's room.

The two played a football game for a while and set off on time at two o'clock to go to the club for the physical test.

When we arrived at the club headquarters, it was just 2:30 and few first-team players had arrived yet.

Mane and Firmino were doing warm-up exercises and chatting about family matters. Seeing this, Lin Chen came over and started doing the warm-up exercises in the same way.

"Lin, you did very well in training today."

Mane greeted Lin Chen first, and Lin Chen responded with a smile, and the few of them started chatting.

This is what Lin Chen wants. Only by chatting more with the first-team can he integrate into the big team as soon as possible. Only by integrating into the team can he get a chance to play as soon as possible.

At 2:50 pm, the first-team players were basically all there, and Klopp's team counted the number of people and decided to start early.

The first item is the physical fitness test of the shuttle run. Within the specified 20 minutes, the player who makes the most shuttle runs will get a higher score.

Lin Chen's current physical attribute is 76, which is not high, but for a 17-year-old young man, it is very rare to have a physical attribute of 76.

Lin Chen is focusing on improving his physical attributes. If he wants to play as an all-around midfielder, physical fitness is the foundation.

After the first test, Lin Chen ranked 14th.

Immediately following the second item, the strength test attribute officially began.

Kravitz can figure out roughly how much a player can deadlift without having to measure.

For the highest level players in Liverpool's first team, the deadlift is around twice their body weight.

This weight is also the most applicable calculation formula in the fitness industry. Therefore, when the players took turns to go on the court, the weight they pulled was similar to what Kravitz estimated.

Until it was Lin Chen's turn, almost everyone was concentrating on staring at the young man who slowly walked to the barbell.

Since the morning training, people have been curious about Lin Chen's strength.

Kravitz looked at Lin Chen's physical test data.

"If you multiply your weight by two, you can lift about 76 kg."

Kravitz also waved his hand and asked the staff to take out the 150kg barbell, but Lin Chen spoke.

"200."

The staff member was stunned and asked, "Mr. Duo?"

Lin Chen confirmed again.

"200 kilograms."

Kravis was shocked.

"Don't be so stubborn, Lin."

Lin Chen smiled and shook his head.
