Chapter 132 Chinese Genius
Everything is difficult at the beginning. After getting off to a good start, the team's internal mood and halftime changed 180 degrees.The atmosphere in the bus carrying the team is very relaxed.The players all started humming and dancing.David Winston was also happy to hear and see their actions happily.

The opponent in the next game is an old opponent, the mortal enemy of the Derby, Portsmouth, but at this time Portsmouth is not as big a threat to Southampton as Portsmouth was last season.Instead of introducing a strong player, they sold the young striker Yakubu.This instantly reduced the strength of the Portsmouth team.

There is still a week to go before the game, there is plenty of time to prepare for the game, and David Winston doesn't have all his attention on this game. Another person has attracted most of his attention In the past, that was Chen Jun.

After David Winston returned to Southampton, he took a day off and went to the Southampton youth team training ground the next day. This summer, Yue Hun spent a lot of money to repair the entire Staplewood training ground. The base has given this dilapidated base a new look, and has added a lot of high-tech elements.Yuehun added a new laboratory in the Staplewood base, in order to optimize the management of the athletes' mental and physical conditions, similar to the Milan laboratory.

On a sunny day, the breath of fresh air feels extra comfortable in David Winston's lungs, which is unmatched by some countries.

Chen Zhun did not drive to the Staplewood training base today, but chose to run there.This hearty feeling immediately surrounded David Winston's body.

David Winston gave the first team a holiday that day, which meant that David Winston could better take a look at the training situation of the youth team and the youth team.

The itinerary for this day is full, the youth team will play in the morning, and the youth team will play in the afternoon.

The youth team's training base is also completely new. When David Winston came, the youth team's game had already started. The youth team's head coach, Prost, and Les Reed, who is now the director of youth training, were present. Watching the battle.

David Winston walked over quietly and patted the two of them on the shoulder.

"Oh! My God, man, you scared me to death! Long time no see! David!!" Les Reed also patted David Winston on the shoulder, his eyes full of remember.

"Yes! Why are you here today!"

"I think our goals are the same." Les Reid finished speaking and looked at Gareth Bell and Theo Walcott running in the field.

"That's right, the same goal." David Winston followed Les Reed's eyes after finishing speaking.

On the field, Gareth Bale has been at the left wing position like a fish in water, frequently using his speed to eat the opponent raw, and Theo Walcott on the right formed the wing twin stars of the youth team.

David Winston looked at their performance on the field and couldn't help but nodded, expressing full affirmation.

"How is it! Are they ready to play in a higher league now!" David Winston asked the youth team coach Prost meaningfully.

"I have full confidence that they can go to the Premier League now and show the world what they can do, even though they are only 16 years old, but I believe they are definitely the future of Southampton."

David Winston watched thoughtfully.

Half an hour later, David Winston got what he wanted to see contentedly, and moved to the youth team training base.

When David Winston arrived at the youth team training base, he found that the morning training had ended, but there were still two figures practicing on the court.David Winston took a closer look, and it turned out to be Le Tissier and Chen Jun.It seems that God likes this boy from China very much.

"Hey, Chen, when you get the ball, first of all, don't think that I must pass the opponent, but calm down, see the situation around you, and pass the ball. In this way, you will bring great help to the whole team , first you have to remember that you are a member of the whole, and then you are yourself!"

"Understood, coach."

"Your basic skills are very solid, and your mind is not as bad at thinking as other Chinese players. You are a rare genius, but I hope you can forget the identity brought to you by the outside world and work hard to improve yourself here. .”

"Uh-huh!"

David Winston really heard the conversation between the two, and immediately felt that Le Tissier really cares about this Chinese kid and is a very professional head coach.

"Hey, are you making a fuss again!!" David Winston enthusiastically waved his hands towards the two people at the end of the training ground.

Leticier and Chen Jun looked at David Winston with incredulous expressions on their faces, and then Chen Jun waited for Leticier's reply.

"Hey, David, long time no see! Why do you have time to come here today?" Le Tissier asked David Winston with a smile.

David Winston pointed to Chen Jun beside Le Tissier, and said, "My target is him. I'm not here to catch up with you today! Haha!"

Le Tissier shrugged his shoulders with a smile, and said, "Chen, I can indeed let you see that he is very powerful. He is indeed a player you brought from China yourself. I really hope he is an England player!"

Chen Jun looked at the conversation between David Winston and Le Tissier with an expression of complete understanding.

"How is it? Has he adapted to England's game rhythm in training recently?" David Winston asked Le Tissier while gently stroking Chen Jun's black hair.

"Chen's daily progress can be seen with the naked eye. This place is very gratifying to me. It is also commendable when compared with children of the same age. His serious and hard work reminds me of my youth. Years. This kid is really rare. But his disadvantages are also obvious, his physical condition is very bad, but now the Southampton team's youth training method no longer blindly conducts physical training, so his body can only be Come little by little."

Le Tissier had asked Chen Jun to go back first, and then he and David Winston talked freely about Chen Jun.From the eyes of David Winston, it can be seen that Le Tissier really likes the child Chen Jun.

Looking at Chen Jun running under the sun, the two couldn't help but think of the scene that he can still run like this after so many years.
