Non-mainstream goalkeeper

On April 23, at the Atletico Madrid training base, the team was conducting a daily group training match.

Chairman Cerezo sat next to Simeone, watching the situation on the field, and suddenly spoke up.

"Diego, have you noticed? In training matches, Zhang San often loses the ball, even more than one! Why is it that in official matches, he can be so stable and save so many incredible goals?"

Simeone replied calmly:"Boss, have you heard of the Great Revolution?"

"What do you mean?" Cerezo's face became even more confused.

"What I mean is that Zhang's emergence will trigger a revolution in the goalkeeping position, and some rules may even be rewritten, just like other historical goalkeepers!"

"How much is that worth!"Cerezzo sighed, and then silently calculated in his heart, if the team won all the championships, plus the players' value... it would be more confident to replace the new stadium next year!

Simeone looked at the boss's expression and knew that he was calculating money again, but as a head coach, he never cared about these things. After all, his coaching salary was among the best in Europe....

At this time in Barcelona, Enrique is cheering up the players

"Guys, we still have a chance! There are 4 games left and we are only 6 points behind. If we catch up with Atletico, our goal difference will be higher! So, we have to take the remaining 4 games seriously! Although we are out of the Champions League, we can still compete for other awards...."

The eyes of most Barcelona players are full of desire for the championship!...

In London, England, the sky was already covered with haze and it was drizzling.

Mendes and his team of data analysts came to a hidden cafe.

"Mr. Boro, you found a very private place!"Mendes warmly hugged a bald uncle in the room.

"This is the limit of what I can find! Mr. Mendes, what have you thought about Zhang's matter?"

"Oh, please tell coach Wenger that the contract price he gave does not reflect Zhang's status at all. I don't think it is a sincere number, but! I understand the economic situation of your Arsenal. My players and I are very interested in starting guarantee and future plans!"

"Of course, we are very clear about this!" Boro said,"But you should also know the difficulties of the team. The budget for the goalkeeper position is not high....Besides, Cech's performance this year is very impressive....so..."

When Mendes heard him say this, he became furious!

"It seems that Arsenal does not really want to discuss cooperation with us! In this case, let Coach Wenger come to talk in person next time!"After saying that, Mendes led his men to push the door and leave.

Looking at his leaving back, Boro Primorac sneered:"With such a temperament, you still come out to be an agent? Do you really think your players are a big piece of gold? Cut it off.~！"

Mendes got more and more angry as he returned to the car. The season was coming to an end and the players' performances were summarized.

The clubs that were interested in Zhang San before seemed to be just raising the price to interfere with other teams' choices!

AC Milan in Serie A cultivated Donnarumma,

Inter Milan had veteran Handanovic,

Manchester City's Joe Hart's season data was also very exciting, and

Chelsea's Courtois had some shining points since his return.......

The only clubs that can make a bid seem to be Manchester United, Real Madrid, Barcelona and Paris Saint-Germain...

"Boss, don't worry!" The analyst next to him said,"Zhang San's data is very good at the moment!"

"Although there are not many saves per game, it is only because Atletico's defense is strong enough to allow the opponent only 7 shooting opportunities per game. In most games, Zhang San can only stand alone in front of the goal...."

"But his ExpG2 value (Expected Goal Value) is over 1.25! The best in the top five leagues! Other top goalkeepers are generally around 1.1-1.15...This means that Zhang San's probability of saving a dangerous ball reaches its peak!"

"Moreover, Zhang San's current season pass number is as high as 770 times, second only to Neuer of Bayern Munich, and even catching up with some midfield offensive cores. His 80% pass success rate has reached a height that most goalkeepers cannot reach!"

After hearing him finish the detailed data, Mendes felt very comfortable:"You will be responsible for Zhang San's month-on-month data in the future. No matter how much your annual salary was before, it will be doubled now!"

"Thank you, boss!"

This is how Mendes, as a boss, trains his subordinates, plus money!...

On April 24, Atletico Madrid played against Malaga at home.

It was not easy for Atletico Madrid to win this game, because Godin was injured, Jimenez returned from injury, and captain Gabi was released from suspension....

Atletico Madrid suppressed Malaga throughout the game, with a shot ratio of 23:4, but the striker efficiency was extremely poor. In the end, they relied on Correa, who came on as a substitute, to score the winning goal and win the game.

At the same time, Barcelona defeated Sporting Gijon 6-0 and closely followed Atletico Madrid in the standings....

After finishing the training, Zhang San went to the Autonomous University of Madrid for a class.

Professor Smith was teaching sports psychology, a branch of psychology that studies the psychological characteristics and laws in sports.

After half a year of classes, Zhang San's mentality in his football career was very healthy, and he did not have any anxious thoughts at all. Instead, he went to counsel the teacher who was anxious because of his wife's illness....

"Zhang, I am very happy to teach you. Unfortunately, you are an athlete. If you want to be a coach after retirement, you can come to me for help. It will be very easy for you to pass the coach-level psychology certificate!"This is what Professor Smith said when Zhang San left....

The next day, Zhang San, who had just arrived at the team gate, was stopped by reporters. In front of him was his teammate Felipe who was being interviewed.

"Bayern's offense is strong, while our defense is very good. I think the gap between the two sides is small, and details will determine success or failure. We are in good shape now, which is a good thing for us. Godin? His absence obviously affects us, but I think Lucas and Savic will be good replacements."

Hearing Felipe's last sentence, Zhang San agreed in his heart. Indeed, the two together can replace Godin....

Then the reporter began to ask Zhang San:"Zhang, what do you think of the game against Bayern?"

"The whole team is looking forward to this game. Bayern has a very good team, but we are fearless. We will try our best and we are full of confidence in the game!"

Zhang San's words instantly made the fans not far away climax. This season, Zhang San's sudden appearance is like a savior!

"We have Griezmann, we have Zhang San, we have..."The fans started singing!...

In the afternoon, all the Bayern Munich players came to Madrid. As soon as they arrived at the hotel, reporters surrounded the bus.

Bayern chairman Rummenigge stood up in time to accept the interview and cover the team to enter the hotel.

"Atletico Madrid eliminated Barcelona and entered the semi-finals. We have absolute respect for them. They are a very strong team. Our coach told us that the atmosphere at the Calderon Stadium will be very intense, but I think our players can handle it."...
