The strongest blade in football

Chapter 8 Wang Nuo's Nickname

In the next week, while training with the team, Wang Nuo will take the initiative to deal with every teammate, trying to write down the names of his teammates and their playing characteristics.

Finally, it was no longer like the first formal training, where it was hard to tell who was who.

Wang Nuo can speak Flemish and French, and his English is not bad. No matter which teammate he is, he can communicate without any obstacles.

Through this period of observation, Wang Nuo has a deeper understanding of the U19 teammates, including some interesting guys.

The black brothers Lebia and Fanore are from a small town on the border with France. The brothers like dancing and are keen on teaching others to dance mechanically in the locker room.

Lebia even designed a full [-] dance celebrations, which are ready to be used by the first team in the future.

Morris, the main goalkeeper of the team, is the number one joker in the team, good at making up jokes and telling jokes.

It is said that in one game, he told a joke to the penalty shooter before saving the penalty kick, which caused the latter to laugh and miss the penalty kick and lose the game. After the game, Morris publicly stated that the opponent's joke was too low.

The team's substitute right back, Olivier, is called a missing full-back by his teammates. He often gets lost on the court and becomes a midfielder or even a striker.

Witt Ante reminded him many times to no avail, so he had to try to transfer him to the midfielder. As a result, he kicked and ran to the former full-back position, which became a joke in the team.

The team's locker room is full of laughter and laughter every day, and the atmosphere is relaxed. Wang Nuo is very glad that he came to the echelon of Standard Liege, not Anderlecht or Club Brugge.

He is very happy to play with the current team-mates. These guys are all at a good level and improve quickly with them.

The standard Liege U19 players also have a good impression of Wang Nuo. This young man from China is not only excellent in football skills, but also easy-going.

The most important thing is that Wang Nuo's extremely hard training habits make every teammate admire.

Basically, training starts at 10 o'clock every day, but Wang Nuo will arrive at the training ground before [-] o'clock, doing half an hour of strength alone and [-] minutes of aerobic.

The first person everyone sees when they come to training every morning is always Wang Nuo wrapped in a towel in the locker room.

Usually at this time, he has been rinsing out of the bathroom after practicing for an hour.

Standard Liege U19 has a tactical lesson of about half an hour before each training session. Wang Nuo is the only player who is allowed to record with a voice recorder.

When he gets home at night, he will carefully copy the experience of the tactical class into his notebook for a firmer grasp.

And after training in the afternoon, when everyone dragged their tired bodies home, Wang Nuo would stay and give himself some extra training with the ball.

In the first two days, after knowing the situation, Vetteant went to Wang Nuo specifically, told him that the intensity of this kind of training was too high, and asked Wang Nuo to stop immediately.

Wang Nuo agreed, but still silently started dribbling the ball from the center line, changing direction and dribbling all the way, passing the sign cones along the way, bringing the ball to the edge of the penalty area, and then kicked and shot.

The same movements, repeated over and over like a robot.

When Vetteant came back from work, he found that Wang Nuo was still training, and he had done it for an unknown number of times, and it was already dark.

"Hey! You can't just practice like this, it's too inefficient."

Witt Ante shook his head, "You don't need to practice so much, just focus on the daily training sessions."

Wang Nuo's answer was still sincere and firm, "Coach, don't worry, I know my body well, and I am not tired."

Vetteant helplessly shook the beard on his mouth.

He looked at Wang Nuo who was immersed in the training, and watched Wang Nuo constantly adjust his dribbling route, passing movements, and shooting skills.

Wittante finally understood that this guy really liked football, he liked it to the point of fanaticism, so naturally he wouldn't feel tired, and there was no doubt that any persuasion would not work.

So from that day on, Vetteant never interfered with Wang Nuo's additional training.

In the physical fitness test in early June, Wang Nuo's aerobic endurance ranked among the top three in the team, and his anaerobic endurance score was also among the best, which proved that Wang Nuo was in good physical condition and there was no need to worry.

After more than a week, Wang Nuo gained two more nicknames, which quickly spread.

Even Witt Ante knew about it, and accidentally called it out after a training session—they were "machine monster" and "water man" respectively.

Wang Nuo was a little confused. He probably understood the meaning of the machine monster, which meant that he was as tireless as a machine in training, but what did the water man mean?
Does it mean that you are a parallel importer?
Wang Nuo couldn't figure it out all the time. It wasn't until one time during a meal that he asked Issel, a big French man, that he got the correct answer.

"Because every time people see you, you just took a shower, and you are the one who works hard every time you train, and your hair is always wet, so of course you are a 'water man'."

Issel gloated, "The intensity of your training frightened them, and they all regarded you as a monster."

Wang Nuo smiled after hearing this, "There is an old saying in China that the stupid bird flies first. As a rookie in the team, of course I have to work harder to keep up with everyone."

Iser did not agree with Wang Nuo's statement at all, "You were in the top three in the aerobic endurance test the day before yesterday, and your teammates followed your pace almost at the same pace. If you are a stupid bird, then what will I do?"

"You can practice with me. It happens that it's too boring to be alone. After the training, we can conduct one-on-one offensive and defensive drills."

Wang Nuo knew that this would not convince Iser, so he added a little bit of temptation, "There is a restaurant whose milk sausage is very delicious."

I don't know if the second half of Wang Nuo's words played a role, but Iser actually stayed that afternoon.

He practiced with Wang Nuo until seven o'clock in the evening, during which Wang Nuo was unable to take care of himself in one-on-one offense and defense.

As Zoe said, Iser's footsteps are too slow, and a big man like him is a stump when he meets a winger with both explosive power and dexterity.

Usually there are only two options - foul, or be played in the palm of your hand.

In order to appease Issel's wounded heart, Wang Nuo took him to the restaurant of Zoe's house. Zooey sympathized with the new big central defender very much, and cooked for him herself, so that Wang Nuo and Issel could taste the real tasty.

Due to his physical condition, Zoe could not participate in the extra training after the game, which he expressed regret.

Wang Nuo really felt sorry for Zoe. Zoe's skills are excellent, both offensive and defensive, and she has a broad vision and an excellent overall view.

If such a player is not troubled by congenital heart disease, given time, he will definitely be able to shine in the League One.

It has to be said that reality is always cruel.

The days passed quickly and the team's planned two friendlies were just around the corner.

Finally, on the afternoon of June [-]th, head coach Witt Arranged the second intra-team match within half a month to decide who to take to Germany.
