Hearing Gu Ran's words, Coach Carter's eyes suddenly shrank.
Just now, he was praying loudly, hoping that God would give him a left back!
What a coincidence, right?
Is this God's arrangement?
...Shit!
How could such a coincidence happen?
Coach Carter sneered, and then looked at Gu Ran with piercing eyes, "Boy, if my guess is correct, you just said that because you want to join the school team, right? Haha, this kind of little trick is totally useless in my eyes. It’s useless. So, you’d better leave before I lose my temper with you.”
Wow, you were actually seen through?
This coach has two skills!
But I can never admit it!
If you admit this, then there is really no chance of joining the school team!
Gu Ran calmed down, showed off his realistic acting skills, and said firmly: "No, coach, I can really play left back. If you don't believe me, you can test me."
In his previous life, Gu Ran played as a forward in the opposition team, and his left foot was his reverse foot. He had never played as a left back.
However, he often plays the position of an inverted forward in the wild team, which is the position that Ronaldo played in the early days - left forward.
There are many outstanding forwards in football, who are essentially inverted forwards, such as early Cristiano Ronaldo, Messi, Neymar, Robben, Henry, etc., etc.
Among them, Messi is particularly worth mentioning.
Messi is a right-handed player, and Messi's left foot can be said to be a golden left foot.
After Messi gets the ball on the court, he likes to dribble the ball laterally from the right front court, which is his inverse foot area, to the edge of the penalty area, and then wait for an opportunity to kick and hit the goal.
Messi's method can no longer be regarded as an inverse cut, but an inverse cut.
This cross-cutting route, as well as Messi's own dribbling and breakthrough abilities, always make it difficult for the opponent's defenders to guard against, so Messi's inverse-foot cross-cutting is also called the "Messi Corridor".
With Gu Ran's previous experience as a reverse-footed striker and his familiarity with the left side of the court, his claim that he could play as a left back was not pure deception.
Of course, whether you can play is one thing, whether you play well or not is another matter.
What the school team lacks now is not a forward, but a left back. If Gu Ran said he was a forward, then Coach Carter would definitely not be interested.
It is not impossible to join the team as a "left back" and then slowly return to the forward line.
Just like the "Great Sage" Bale who came out of Southampton, Bale started out as a left-back. It wasn't until he went to Tottenham that he was transformed into a forward, and he is still one of the top forwards of this era. !
And the head coach Villas-Boas, who transformed Bale into a striker, still relies on this matter to brag to everyone...
In short, Gu Ran's strategy is to join the school team first. As long as he joins the school team and patiently goes whoring for a few days, he will have everything.
Seeing Gu Ran's determined expression, Coach Carter couldn't help but hesitate, "Okay, Chinese boy, I have to admit that I really need a qualified left back now - listen clearly, I need more than just a left back." Defender, what I need is a qualified left back. I don't expect you to reach Olin's level at all, but if you can prove that you are a qualified left back, I can consider making an exception and letting you join my team. "
Gu Ran breathed a sigh of relief and said with a calm expression: "Thank you, coach."
Coach Carter said coldly: "Don't be in a hurry to thank me, Chinese boy. Our school team is one of the best high school football teams in the UK! We defeated more than a dozen high school teams in the Southern Division in the qualifying round. We got a ticket to the top 32 of the national group stage. Therefore, not just any cat or dog can join our school team, our team entrance examination is very strict and comprehensive."
Gu Ran said with a solemn expression: "I understand, coach, I respect the achievements of the Bucks Steel Horns very much. I also know that the Bucks Steel Horns are very powerful among high schools across the country. These are all achieved under your leadership." achievements.”
——My career in my previous life was not in vain!
This is the art of workplace language, a required course in social universities!
How can a British guy with little knowledge in this area stand up to this kind of art?
Coach Carter's serious old face suddenly relaxed a little.
His disciples are all rusty ones, with high-end chassis configurations and colored lights, but the CPU and graphics cards inside are all 286-level.
How can this Chinese guy speak so nicely? And it’s so right? Um?
Coach Carter nodded to Gu Ran with satisfaction, "Listen, our team entry assessment used to take at least two weeks, but now, the situation is special, so I will simplify this assessment. First, test how confrontational you are as a defensive player - you can randomly pick an opponent from the players of our school team and have a one-on-one match."
"Thank you coach for giving me this opportunity."
Gu Ran calmly pointed at Xi Tiao, who was wrestling with his teammates in the distance, "I chose Xi Tiao as my opponent because we had a one-on-one duel before."
Choosing Xitiao as his opponent was actually not just to fulfill the agreement, Gu Ran also had deeper considerations.
Rusty's strength attribute is indeed very high, and Rusty's defensive skills such as close pressing, collision, interception, and tackle are also considered good in high school amateur competitions.
However, Rusty's starting, dribbling, speed, and turning are all weak points, and can even be said to be failing.
Since Gu Ran had to accept a one-on-one confrontation test as a defender, he chose Rusty Strip to launch the attack.
Rusty Stripe himself is the main defender, and his strength is defense, not offense.
Let Rusty Strip attack, and it will naturally be difficult for Rusty Strip to take advantage of his interceptions, steals, blocking, etc.
The only advantage that Rusty Strip can show is collision.
And Gu Ran now also has the skill of reasonable collision to use, and his strength attribute is also passed. Coupled with the experience of playing wild football in his previous life, he can collide completely without any rust.
And if Gu Ran chooses other forwards and midfielders from the school team, then with Gu Ran's current defensive ability, he will definitely show his timidity in front of the coach.
Therefore, choosing Rusty Bar as your opponent is the smartest thing to do.
"You choose Rusty Strip? Are you sure?" Carter sneered: "Boy, I don't care about your private grudges. Even if you fall in love with his mother, it's none of my business. But I want to tell you, you choose A very dangerous opponent."
The corner of Gu Ran's mouth rose with confidence, "Coach, I'm not afraid of danger. And the more dangerous it is, the more interesting it is, isn't it? I'm sure I want to go one-on-one with Rusty Stripe."
Carter's brows knitted together, his expression a little worried: "You...could you have really fallen in love with his mother?"
Damn it!
Gu Ran said quickly: "No, no! Absolutely not!"
"That's good……"
Coach Carter muttered in a low voice: "Then no one will be killed..."
