"He passed the test to go to the first team?"
Kevin Keegan was also surprised when he heard the news.
The trial team also has levels for player testing. There is a level for players who go to the first team, and there is a level for players who go to the second team.
Normally, only two or three people from a 30-person trial team will make it to the first team, including "recommended students" like Walcott.
So now that I heard that Mike actually intended to let Wang Xiaodong join the first team, Kevin Keegan's curiosity was also aroused.
"Yes, his position is midfielder." Mike answered honestly.
"In other words, he took his girlfriend to celebrate that night?" Speaking of this, Kevin Keegan showed a smile on his lips.
It was also a car accident. If Wang Xiaodong had just been selected, people could say that he was triumphant and extremely happy, but if Wang Xiaodong failed in the trial training, people would even think that he was unwilling to take revenge on society.
According to Kevin Keegan, young people should be more lively.
"Since he is a defensive midfielder, his defensive ability should be good, right?"
"Of course, Mr. Keegan!" When he mentioned Wang Xiaodong, the excitement in Mike's eyes was even greater than when he mentioned Walcott just now. After all, Walcott was recommended by Kevin Keegan, but he discovered Wang Xiaodong himself.
Seeing Mike's reaction, Kevin Keegan also became interested in Wang Xiaodong.
"Dong's defense is nothing to say. He is simply a natural defender! Not only does he have excellent defensive awareness, but his body is also incredibly strong. And you may have heard that after the car accident, you, your driver, and his female companion all He fainted, but he stood up at the scene of the car accident with only some scratches. Such physical fitness is not something ordinary people have..."
Just as Mike and Kevin Keegan introduced Wang Xiaodong's "heroic deeds", the ward door on the other side was also opened.
"Hey, you're awake? You seem to be recovering well." Wang Xiaodong strutted into the ward and placed a fruit basket on the bedside.
Rebecca's forehead was wrapped with gauze. Seeing Wang Xiaodong's arrival, her teeth itched with hatred.
"Why do I have so much gauze wrapped around the top of my head and all you have to do is put a Band-Aid on it?"
"Maybe my car saw that you already had two airbags, so it gave me all the protection." Wang Xiaodong explained, pointing to Rebecca's full hospital gown.
Muscles can protect the body, and fat can often do the same.
Except for the serious head bump, Rebecca's body was not seriously injured in other parts of her body.
"Okay, okay, don't be angry, come on, eat a banana!" Wang Xiaodong said, taking out a banana from the fruit basket and peeling it.
"If I had known that your driving skills were so bad, I wouldn't have gotten into your car." Rebecca was a little annoyed. She originally wanted to use Wang Xiaodong to find out some inside information about Southampton, but she failed to find out the information and was hospitalized first.
Does what colleagues in the industry refer to as “selling one’s body” include this?
"It's none of my business? I'm overtaking and going the wrong way at the opposite corner. I can't even hide from that situation! You're lucky to be alive. Why don't you be grateful?"
After Wang Xiaodong finished speaking, he subconsciously took a bite.
Looking at the half banana left in his hand, Wang Xiaodong blinked, "Do you still want to eat it?"
"Get lost!" Rebecca rolled her eyes. She really didn't want to talk to Wang Xiaodong anymore.
After eating three bananas in a row, Wang Xiaodong didn't want to make trouble for himself when Rebecca saw that Rebecca didn't pay much attention to him, so he stood up and left.
Looking at Wang Xiaodong's back, Rebecca was so angry that she kicked her feet in bed.
In the past, when I was sick, even if I had a cold or fever, there would be a lot of male classmates asking me for help.
Now that there was a car accident, Wang Xiaodong ate a few bananas in front of her and left without even saying a word of greeting. The gap in her heart was really huge.
"Oh, by the way, I owe you a favor this time. After you are discharged from the hospital, I will find time to interview you again. Don't worry, I will definitely tell you everything I know by then!"
With a "bang" sound, Wang Xiaodong closed the door.
"Damn Dong, let's see what I write about you after I'm discharged from the hospital!" Rebecca drew small circles in her heart, cursing the other person.
Not walking far in the corridor, Mike's eyes lit up, "Hey, isn't that Dong?"
"winter!"
Mike took three steps at a time and ran up, "Dong, why are you here?"
"What?" Monk Wang Xiaodong was confused, "Mr. Mike, what did you say? And why are you here?"
"Why am I here? Of course I'm here to visit the patient!" Mike said angrily, "Dong, don't tell me you don't know who you hit, right?"
"Of course I know." Wang Xiaodong looked indifferent, "Isn't it Kevin Keegan? That old guy who helped the kitten go through the back door! What happened to the England Merit? It's not my fault, he violated the traffic first rule!"
The meritorious veteran of British football was described by Wang Xiaodong as a heinous traffic killer, but Mike did not react at all.
The reason is simple. Wang Xiaodong knows that the other party is Scottish. Although he has deep feelings for Southampton, he has no loyalty to Elizabeth II.
"Dong, you know, you are in big trouble! Mr. Keegan has become the head coach of Southampton!" Mike said succinctly.
"What? He became a regular? This is really difficult!" Wang Xiaodong became anxious when he heard that this old guy actually became the head coach of Southampton.
My immediate boss was rushed into the hospital before I even joined the team. When I join the team, I won’t be allowed to have the other party’s shoes on me, right?
"Mr. Mike, what should I do?"
"Ha, you guys have times when you are anxious!" Mike laughed, then stretched out two fingers, "There are two ways. One, you go to the second team to play for a while, and then transfer if there is a chance, or Wait until Mr. Keegan fails to lead the team to the Premier League after one season, then resign and leave."
"Then what if he succeeds in reaching the Super League? Do I still have to wait for his contract to expire?" Wang Xiaodong was obviously not satisfied with the first method.
"Two, come with me now and apologize to the old man in person. Maybe he will be in a good mood and forgive you directly!"
"This... this..." Wang Xiaodong hesitated, "Who knows what his temper is like? If he scolds me and then still excludes me, am I not asking for trouble? And now the media and newspapers in England They are all attacking me, calling me a 'murderer', and they are jealous and hateful. Who knows if the old guy has read the newspaper?"
"Hey, hey, hey, Mr. Keegan is also a famous football player, is he so unworthy in your eyes?" Mike curled his lips, "Dong, to tell you the truth, I have told Mr. Keegan about your situation recently, and he is so unworthy in your eyes?" You are very interested. Especially after you were unscathed after the car accident, with a player like this defending the back of the team, why should he be worried?"
"you mean..."
"What I mean is that you should take this opportunity to meet Mr. Keegan first. Regardless of whether he is good or bad, get to know him first and become familiar with him. Maybe Mr. Keegan will not pursue you after he is happy!"
"I shouldn't have pursued it in the first place. He was the one who went backwards first!" Wang Xiaodong muttered softly.
"Dong! It doesn't matter who is responsible for the car accident. The important thing is that you must first establish a good relationship with the head coach of the first team. If you build a good relationship, you may be able to play with the team after two or three months of training. Well, don’t forget that the club is in a special period now, regardless of age or seniority, as long as they have the ability, minors can also play!”
"If you say so... Okay, then I'll go with you to meet him." Wang Xiaodong thought about it and finally compromised, "But let's start with the ugly words. If that guy is a stubborn old man, don't blame me for not giving him face. It's no big deal for me. It is better to stop playing football and return to my old profession to play football than to be put in his shoes."
"Okay, okay, stop inking. Mr. Keegan is not that kind of person. You will know when you see him."
"Okay then, take me to which ward he is in."
"You're just going to go there like this?" Mike looked at Wang Xiaodong's empty hands, "You have to buy a gift anyway, right?"
"It's okay, I have the gift, let's go up first!" After saying that, Wang Xiaodong took Mike's hand and walked into the elevator again.
Three minutes later, Kevin Keegan, who was on the hospital bed, looked at the fruit basket with three missing bananas in front of him, then looked at Wang Xiaodong, who was sitting on the chair scratching his head and forcing a smile, and took the initiative to stretch out his right hand: "Dong. , welcome you to Southampton."
At the same time, in another ward, looking at the empty bedside and the ward door swinging back and forth, recalling the look in Wang Xiaodong's face when he rushed in just now and said, "If you don't eat it, I'll take it away." Ka was so angry that he shouted bitterly: "Dong, just wait for me! After I am discharged from the hospital, if you play a game, I will blackmail you!"
