Zhigao Supreme: The Legend of Greenery

Chapter 53 Confidence
In Antwerp in September, it was rainy.

In the early morning, under the drizzle, Yu Liang came to the empty training ground again wearing a sweater and a football under his feet.

Because yesterday was a game day, the training session this morning was cancelled, and the team will conduct some recovery training in the afternoon.

But for Yu Liang, these times are precious.

At this time, Yu Liang is like a sponge, fully absorbing nutrients, using every spare time to train and improve his level.

After more than a month of training, Yu Liang's sense of the ball has improved a lot, at least now when he dribbles the ball, he won't be staggering like he was a few months ago.

"When did he come?"

Unbeaten in three rounds, accumulating five points, although this kind of start is a little flat, but Van Aker is very satisfied with this kind of start.

Players can get half a day off, but as the head coach of the team, there is no such treatment.

At eight o'clock in the morning, Van Aker came to the club.

Standing at the gate of the club, Van Aker could clearly see Yu Liang training alone in the training ground.

He has heard that Yu Liang comes to train early every morning and stays for extra practice every night.It's just that he didn't care, every club has no shortage of hardworking players, such as Mihem, who is also a training madman.

But there was no training session this morning, and Fan Ake was a little surprised that Yu Liang was able to continue training.

"Ho Ho, he's been here very early! I can see him every day after I wake up."

The club's doorman, Uncle Hank, glanced at Van Aker next to him, and then set his sights on the training ground.

"Maybe, he will take my job!"

"Hehe... Old man, even if he wants to get an extra salary, it depends on whether I want to!"

Listening to Hank's joke there, Van Acker laughed.

I am very satisfied with Yu Liang's diligent performance.

"Huh, if Dong is as diligent as Yu Liang, maybe..."

Thinking of this, Van Aker shook his head, and then walked directly into the club.

In the afternoon, the training ground became lively. Although the sky was still drizzling, the restorative training was still going on as usual.

Unbeaten in three rounds, with five points, they are ranked fifth in the league. Although the results are not particularly ideal, the players are very relaxed.From time to time, there will be bursts of laughter in the training ground.

Before the start of the season, when the team is preparing for training, although there will be some fans and reporters on the sidelines of the training court every day, there have never been so many.

Standing outside the training ground, Lu Bing frowned as he watched Yu Liang and King Dong who were seriously training in the training ground.

For him, coming to Belgium is an opportunity and a breakthrough in his career.It is a pity that his future has begun to look bleak now.

Just like Yu Liang and King Dong in the arena.

The moment they joined Manchester United pushed their lives to a high point, and they were accompanied by flowers, applause and praise.But in Antwerp, they who have been unable to get the chance to play for a long time are facing a long wait. Just like him, they don't know the way forward.

After returning to the office last night, he had already packed his luggage. As long as he settled the rent with the landlord, he could fly back to China immediately.

But before leaving, he wanted to interview Yu Liang and King Dong.

After the two-hour training session ended, Lu Bing walked to the side of the training ground to find Yu Liang and King Dong.

"Yu Liang, King Dong!"

"Brother Lu!"

Yu Liang, who was chatting with King Dong, wiped the rain off his face, turned around and saw Lu Bing.

After staying in Antwerp for more than a month, Yu Liang and Lu Bing were already very familiar with each other, so they called Brother Lu directly.

"The training is over, can we chat together?"

Lu Bing smiled at Yu Liang, and then extended an invitation.

"Okay! But you have to wait a while, I'm going to take a shower!"

"No problem, I'll wait for you at JohnnyD'Hooge Cafe!"

After coming to Antwerp, he fell in love with JohnnyD'Hooge Cafe, not only because the coffee here is delicious, but more importantly, the environment here is good, and he likes to write manuscripts here very much.

"sure no problem!"

After speaking, Yu Liang and King Dong left the training ground.

Back in the locker room, after taking a shower, Yu Liang and King Dong came directly to Johnny D'Hooge Cafe.

"Brother Lu, your complexion is not very good?"

Hearing King Dong's question, Yu Liang realized that Lu Bing's complexion was indeed not very good.

"Hehe, I didn't have a good rest last night to catch up on the manuscript! How is it? Three rounds of the new season have passed, how do you feel?"

After taking a sip of coffee, Lu Bing asked Yu Liang and King Dong.

"pretty good."

Although he only played once in the three rounds, King Dong scored a goal and helped the team equalize the score. It feels pretty good.

Seeing that Yu Liang didn't speak, Lu Bing asked again, "Yu Liang, how about you? You haven't played a game for Antwerp so far. What do you think now?"

"I don't have any ideas, just train hard and wait for the chance to play!"

Seeing Yu Liang still so confident, Lu Bing smiled.Although it's only been a month, every time he thinks of Yu Liang today, he always thinks of what he said at the press conference when he joined Antwerp on loan.

"Then what do you think is the reason for the delay in being able to play?"

Lu Bing was very curious about where Yu Liang's confidence came from.

When it comes to the skills at the feet, Yu Liang is not as good as many domestic players.When it comes to physical fitness, it is not top-notch in China.

But whether on or off the court, Yu Liang maintained his confidence.

Is it possible to maintain self-confidence only by relying on the pursuit of victory and perseverance?
Lu Bing didn't believe it.

He really wanted to know what kind of answer Yu Liang, who had never had a chance to play in Antwerp, would give.

He doesn't believe in a player who remains optimistic and confident even when a team doesn't get a chance to play.

Through Yu Liang's hesitation just now, he knew that Yu Liang had wavered.

"do not know!"

Hearing Lu Bing's question, Yu Liang smiled, and immediately returned to normal.

"As far as I know, you are the hardest-trained player in the entire team, but under such circumstances, you still haven't been able to usher in your debut in Antwerp. Do you have any other ideas?"

"No! As a player, hard training is a must! I have many deficiencies. In order to make up for my deficiencies, I can only train hard! As for the issue of playing, I want to wait until my level reaches the level of the head coach. Demand, the first show is naturally a matter of course."

In fact, after three rounds of the league and a cup match in late August, Yu Liang no longer believed Van Ake's words of an indefinite team ban.

In these four games, Mehm, Holfart and King Dong all played, and he was the only one who didn't get the chance to play. Then there is only one problem. His technical level has not yet met Van Acker's needs. .

"Then when do you think you will be able to meet Van Acker's request?"

In Lu Bing's view, Yu Liang has every chance to play.

Among Antwerp's current midfielders, Soleimani and Di Gregorio have not fully recovered from their injuries, and they will have to wait at least the beginning of next month to play.The team's offensive organization can only rely on Wellbist, but Wellbist is relatively balanced in all aspects and has a limited view of the overall situation. It happens that Yu Liang can make up for this.

"Maybe the next game, maybe the next game!"

"Okay, so what are your goals in Antwerp?"

Seeing Yu Liang so maturely avoiding the truth, Lu Bing could only change the subject.

"Let's advance! This is the common goal of all of us, and I think we can achieve it!"

"Xiao Dong, what about you? As a center forward, besides helping the team advance, do you have other goals, such as the league Golden Boot?"

King Dong looked at Lu Bing and smiled shyly.

"League Golden Boots? I haven't thought about this. Work hard to play every game! It would be even better if you can win this."

Glancing at King Dong and Yu Liang, Lu Bing found that there was a big difference between the two.

Both of them have the fine traditional modesty of the Chinese people, but Yu Liang always shows strong self-confidence, while King Dong shows humility more often.

Modesty, in some cases, is a virtue.But in another case, what is shown is lack of self-confidence.

Football is a game of the jungle.

The eleven positions on the field are reserved for those who can.

But if you only have ability without self-confidence, you will naturally not be able to occupy this position for a long time, and vice versa.

Only with both ability and self-confidence can one become an indispensable member of a team.

If Yu Liang's self-confidence and tenacity can be placed on King Dong, perhaps King Dong has already become a member of Manchester United at this time, standing shoulder to shoulder with Rooney and Ronaldo.

"I might have to go back home!"

After taking a sip of coffee, Lu Bing looked at the street outside the window with some reluctance.

"Visiting relatives?"

"no!"

"why?"

Except for Zhang Wenxin, Yu Liang really didn't get along so well with a reporter.For Lu Bing's return to the country, Yu Liang was a little puzzled, and at the same time he also had some reluctance!

"There is no valuable news, the editor-in-chief told me to go back to China."

Yu Liang smiled and shook his head, then looked at Lu Bing and asked, "Are you really willing to go back like this?"

"do not know!"

From a personal point of view, Lu Bing is of course unwilling to go back like this.Since Yu Liang joined on loan until now, he has been following up and reporting, and going back now feels like giving up all his previous efforts.

But considering the issue from the perspective of the newspaper, Lu Bing understands the approach of the editor-in-chief.

"You can tell your editor-in-chief directly, if you give up now, the loss in the future may be even greater! If you lose a little now and persevere, the future gain will be incomparable!"

Yu Liang knew that Lu Bing News' decision had a lot to do with the performance of the two of them.

But Yu Liang firmly believed that he and King Dong would create a miracle in Antwerp!
Looking at the confident Yu Liang, Lu Bing's frowning brows gradually relaxed, and he sighed in his heart: "Yes, you Yu Liang can be so confident, why should I hesitate!"

At this moment, Lu Bing made the most correct choice in his life!
