The midfield king of football life

Chapter 19 19 Rejecting an invitation from Ajax

After several days of inner struggle, Li Feng finally decided not to go to the Ajax youth training camp.

When Li Feng told Pilar about this decision, Pilar was furious.

"Feng, you are the stupidest and stupidest person I have ever seen. Do you know what it means for you to go to Ajax? To improve and train together with talented players, and to get advice from famous coaches. This is a huge attraction for any player, but you just gave up. You don't understand, you don't understand."

Li Feng remained silent, seeing Pilar's excited expression, he didn't know what to say.

After a while, Li Feng said slowly: "Although I have only been in Rotterdam for one year, I am already used to life here. I know that going to Ajax may be more beneficial to my career development, but I cherish everything about you and Rotterdam even more. I think as long as I work hard, I can also achieve results in Feyenoord."

Hearing what Li Feng said, Pilar stopped talking.

"Okay, Feng, I support your decision! That's good, you can play with me from time to time. I can also witness every progress you make." Pilar spread his hands and said.

Although Li Feng gave up his plan to go to the Ajax youth training talent camp, it didn't mean he gave up on growing up. On the contrary, after listening to Alex's words, Li Feng started cruel self-abuse training.

All great players, in addition to talent, the rest is 100% hard work.

During this period of time, Li Feng found a lot of game videos of outstanding midfielders on the Internet, studied them at home alone, and then took a notebook to record what he wanted to learn.

For example: Rui Costa is a Portuguese master midfielder, his most powerful thing is his precise long pass; Pirlo is also the best midfielder of the Rossoneri AC Milan, his free kick, precise long pass, and organizational ability are also among the best at the time; Rivaldo, an all-around midfielder, one of the midfielders with strong organizational and scoring abilities;

Li Feng recorded the characteristics and strengths of these midfield masters, and then listed the special training subjects:
1. Ball control, ball protection and dribbling are the most basic skills of a midfielder. If you can't control the ball, you can't pass the ball.

2. Touch the ball, a good first touch can lead to better reception and control of the ball.

3. Passing, accurate long and short passes can make the offense more concise and effective.

4. Physical fitness, keep running to have a chance to catch the ball

After Li Feng recorded these training subjects, he went to the youth training camp to find coach Molenco to guide him on how to arrange training reasonably.When Molenco saw the densely packed notes written in Li Feng's notebook, he couldn't help being surprised. This was the first time that Molenco saw a player take the initiative to study the training subjects carefully.

In fact, what Li Feng recorded was very rough. He just wrote down the general things. Take the contact ball as an example. The first touch can be controlled in front of him, or he can catch the ball and stop in the space in front of him to get rid of the opponent.

Coach Morenco patiently subdivided these major categories of subjects to Li Feng, and then told him how Li Feng should train.

From this weather, Li Feng started his crazy practice.

Players of the same age would sometimes joke about whether Li Feng had been hit recently, and vented all his energy on training.

During the rest time every day, Li Feng took the ball to the small park near his home to train alone. From the beginning when Li Feng brought the ball to the park, and then he bounced the ball all the way to the park. He has already become famous in the small park near their home.

After arriving at the park, Li Feng performed simple warm-up exercises, placed obstacles on the ground, and began to practice around the pole.The practice around the stem is mainly to practice the ball protection and get rid of the technique in the midfield.Coach Molenco said that this is the simplest and most practical technique, and all fancy turning movements are not as practical as this.As long as he can get rid of the defensive players smoothly, he will either drive straight into Huanglong, or play the ball coquettishly, just like a midfielder.

For example, when you are dribbling the ball forward, someone is pressing from the right back. At this time, when you can see that the defensive player is about to press you, lower your center of gravity, smash the ball with your right foot continuously, and turn around with your left foot. At the same time, pay attention to the physical confrontation and not be squeezed away by the defensive player with your body. The moment you suddenly smash the ball and turn around, you will get rid of the defensive player, and then you can accept the applause of the audience like a midfielder.

The basic exercises that Li Feng is doing now are all preparations for becoming a top midfielder on the court in the future.

As the saying goes, if the foundation is laid firmly, the cowhide will run away.

When Li Feng practiced alone, it was fine. When he was in the youth training camp, Li Feng also practiced with all his might.

In the U12 team, Laxi, Calcidorp, Villena, Kongolo, Karim, Jorgensen, Basha, Konos, Mara, Truida, Jones, etc. have all been destroyed by Li Feng.

2 short pass to 2 long pass, then 4 short pass, 4 running pass, 4 long pass behind, and then turned into a confrontation match, and then everyone wanted to have the urge to beat Li Feng, but Li Feng's actual age was the youngest among them.So in the end, he was willingly destroyed.

Since then, Li Feng has been dubbed the "training little devil" by his teammates in the youth training camp. However, during the training with his teammates, their basic skills have improved significantly, and the relationship between them has also become better and better. The tacit understanding is also getting higher and higher.

While Li Feng was concentrating on training, Ajax's scout Alex took time to find Li Feng. Alex didn't understand Li Feng's refusal of Ajax's invitation. He felt that Ajax's youth training was better than Feyenoord's from any angle.

In the end, it was indeed Li Feng's slap in the face: "I want to beat your Ajax talent youth training camp, so that I can feel a sense of accomplishment."

When Alex heard Li Feng's words, he almost vomited blood. Thousands of grass and mud horses galloped past in his heart, and he thought to himself: "Damn it, you won't be ranked in the Ajax Talent Youth Academy with such a small potential, okay?"

But Alex still replied with a gentlemanly smile: "I hope you will think about it again. You are welcome to join us at the Ajax Talent Youth Academy at any time."

During this boring and heavy training, Li Feng spent 6 years in Feyenoord's youth training camp. From short hair when he first entered Feyenoord's youth training camp, he became a handsome guy with long hair now.His height has also grown to 1.7 meters eight. If you don't look carefully, you can't tell that he is 15 years old.In the past few years, Li Feng has become even more famous in the Feyenoord youth training camp. Basically, he has won all the honors in the Feyenoord youth training camp. He and another talented player Wijnaldum are called Feyenoord's "twin stars".
