102.
“The national team is different from the club. You don’t have Jamie.”
Before the convocation of the national team, to Brian’s question, Keating gave his own sincere advice.
“When I play for the national team, I don’t think there is anyone else who can score goals other than me. No, I tend to play thinking that there is no one other than me to break through, and no one to make a decisive pass other than me. Apart from the actual fact, in terms of mindset.”
It was the intention to play with that much responsibility, but Brian took Keating’s advice straight away.
[ Brian Lekka catches the ball again. ]
[Are you trying to break through again? ]
[Ah, I get lost again. ]
[Is it because he allowed the first goal? You seem to be in a hurry. ]
He attempted to break through alone and committed six turnovers in the first half alone.
[Belarus gets a good counterattack opportunity after a long time! ]
[Left empty! ]
[ Brian Lekka, hesitantly… ]
[I have to give it. I have to give it now! ]
[Sorry. Brian Recka! Again, by trying too hard, you miss a good opportunity. ]
Even in one of those situations, a pass to a teammate could have created a near-perfect chance.
[ Brian Recka checking the position of the goal post. ]
[The distance is quite far… Ah! Hit me again! ]
[hahahaha, I’m in a hurry. The distance was too far. ]
When Brian couldn’t break through, he actively attempted a mid-range shot in the second half, but this also failed to produce results.
Hue the great ducks army admiral is coming for u all
No matter how good he was at shooting, a random shot without calculating the distance and angle would never lead to a goal.
[ Brian Lekca again shoots wide off the target. ]
[Is this the fifth shot already? ]
Brian’s shots often went wide of the post or hit the body of the English defense before reaching the post.
[ Ah, Jamie Lee catches the ball again. ]
[Do you solve it yourself this time? ]
[He hit me! ]
[ Awesome! Jamie Lee, who gave Hugh Godfrey a series of decisive passes, scores a goal himself this time! ]
In the end, Jamie recorded 1 goal and 2 assists, while Brian only recorded turnovers and meaningless shots and was replaced just before the end of the game.
[England wins 3-0 against Belarus]
[ 1 goal, 2 assists, ‘MOM’ Jamie Lee]
[Jamie proved his ‘class’ in international competitions. ]
ㄴ [ Lead the victory by showing a menacing appearance for 90 minutes with low activity. ]
[ Hugh Godfrey found a solution. The correct answer is Jamie Lee. ]
[‘Hugh I met Jamie’, multi-goal explosion. ]
[ Add the missing 2%. Jamie who put wings on Hue]
As the match was a match in which several ‘new faces’ including Jamie made their debut, many articles were poured out the next day.
Among them, there were many articles related to Jamie, who led England to victory, and not a few articles related to Hugh Godfrey.
It was because Hugh Godfrey, who recently showed a lower-than-expected appearance at Tottenham, showed outstanding performance with the help of Jamie.
It was inevitable that English football, which had high expectations from him, could not help but pay attention.
[Brian Recka’s play was too selfish to be called a simple lack of skill]
[Was I too greedy? Brian Recka, who insisted on excessive play, was pointed out as the ‘culprit behind the defeat’. ]
Conversely, most of the articles about Brian were negative. No, it was just a negative article.
‘It’s a big deal.’
After the call-up for the national team, Jamie, who returned to Stoke City as vice-captain, was worried that Brian might be intimidated.
In a way, it was a reasonable concern. Concentration in the media and criticism from the people were going on at the same time.
Jamie, who is more than mentally good and close to brazen blood, would have been quite intimidated if he had gone through something similar in his first life, not his second life.
To put it a bit excessively, it was a situation in which people would naturally feel nervous and intimidated.
“Brian, don’t you look bad?”
“Yeah.”
Indeed, Brian appeared at the training ground with a lot of intimidation.
“Oh man, I can see everything. What should I do?”
“A slap in the back of the head?”
“Arthur, it backfires.”
However, no one could hastily comfort Brian. It was because clumsy consolation could rather be poison.
“Jay.”
Right after team training ended, Robin looked at me. Judging by his status in the team and his skills, he seemed to have judged that Jamie was the most suitable person to comfort.
Jamie nodded silently and walked over to Brian, who was preparing for personal training.
“Brian.”
Then, I called Brian.
“···Jay.”
Brian looked at Jamie with blank eyes.
“I am garbage now.”
And he made some shocking remarks.
‘…the condition is worse than expected?’
Jamie was momentarily taken aback.
I knew that Brian was originally a person who was easily swept away by the atmosphere around him, but he was still on the strong side of benevolence, so he didn’t know that he would even describe himself as ‘trash’ and blame himself.
“I couldn’t even shoot a shot that was useful. It can be said that it is almost useless.”
Fortunately, after hearing his words, I came up with a solution right away.
“this. I can’t help it. Garbage shouldn’t be on the field. Let’s retire.”
Jamie spit it out like that.
Rather, if the two of them were alone, he would not have made such a bold statement. But now, there are many players around me who can help me, such as Robin and Keating.
“···crazy.”
As expected, Robin, who had been listening to the conversation pretending not to, muttered abusive words without realizing it.
“What would have happened if the old man listening to the conversation pretending not to be there thought?”
“…?”
Jamie immediately turned his head to Robin.
“Robin is one of the best players in the Premier League off the ball. However, other areas, such as dribbling penetration and mid-range shooting, which are my strengths, are inferior to me. Right, Robin?”
“···yes.”
“Robin is a player who has a great advantage off the ball, but there must have been games where he didn’t use his organs well. What would Robin do then?”
Jamie turned his head back to Brian.
“How can I use my strengths again? How can I make more use of my strengths? Wouldn’t you have thought about this?”
“…”
Hue the great ducks army admiral is coming for u all
Neither Robin nor Brian said anything.
In Robin’s case, it was because it was true, and in Brian’s case, it was because Robin would have done it.
“Keeting, aren’t you similar?”
Jamie spoke to Keating, who unintentionally had a big impact on Brian’s ‘irrational number’ in the last game.
“yes.”
Keating readily admitted.
“Can you elaborate more on this?”
“Ugh. I’m afraid I’ll say something that backfires like last time, but I’ll just say it. I’ve been researching the timing to keep my focus alive.”
“For example?”
“The timing to maximize my strengths while reducing the risk when I fail. For example, when there is a teammate up front, Jamie nearby, and I have the ball. At that time, I thought that if I carried the ball myself, I could create good chances.”
Despite the sudden request to participate in the war, Keating naturally continued his explanation.
“It’s not just a story about Robin and Keating. Harry did it, Ben did too, and I did too.”
And Jamie continued Keating’s words naturally.
“Jay you too?”
Brian’s eyes widened slightly. He didn’t know anyone else, but he didn’t seem to think that even Jamie was like that.
“uh. We share the same weapon.”
“Kick?”
“yes. Think about where, from what angle, and under what circumstances you can save your kick. You can check it while practicing during your personal training session.”
Unlike Ben, I didn’t feed him 100 percent. It was Brian who was considerate in his own way to think and find a solution.
“······Well.”
Brian thought for a moment, then nodded briefly.
“Okay.”
**
After that, Brian went through extra training with more enthusiasm than usual. Even after the lights in the training ground were turned off, he remained alone to practice shooting.
‘It’s not a problem that can be solved overnight.’
However, Jamie didn’t think Brian would be able to get over it right away.
[‘Another’ interview controversy, Jamie Lee. ]
[“How many times is this?” Criticism after repeated gossip]
There were times when he, too, was attacked by the media.
[“I don’t know what the team is aiming for.” Jamie Lee’s bombshell remarks. ]
It’s a story of ‘Immature days’ that is often said.
To be precise, before returning to the past, he made many mistakes that were difficult to overlook because they were simple happenings, such as belittling his team or blaming his teammates.
Thanks to that, I ate a lot of swearing, but the criticism didn’t last long. With skill and as a result, everything has been eroded away.
However, Brian’s current situation was a bit different.
It was an act with good intentions, but the results did not follow, and even the intention was interpreted in a bad way. He seemed to have lost confidence in himself because of it.
In this case, there is nothing the people around you can do. You just have to prove yourself. That too while enduring criticism from the media.
This is never easy. Especially if you are a young player like Brian now.
‘It will take a month if it’s short, up to several months if it’s long.’
Jamie expected so.
But······.
[Gooool! Brian Recka! A nice mid-range goal from outside the penalty box! ]
[hahahahaha, it’s a different result from the last game against England. ]
[ That’s right. It is no exaggeration to say that the timing and angle are both perfect shots. ]
Brian was different.
Perhaps because he had already surpassed his limits, he showed himself overcoming it by scoring a 20-meter mid-range goal in the next league match. Considering that Jamie was absent due to physical recovery problems, it was an even more surprising achievement.
‘It’s gotten harder.’
Watching the scene from the bench, Jamie thought to herself.
‘Am I going to be reborn as a truly strong team like this?’
At the same time, I also felt that way.
It was also a fact proven by cases such as Brian, Robin, and Keating.
Isn’t there a saying ‘you can’t buy a class with money’. I wondered if a team would have to go through a similar process countless times in order to become a truly strong team, at least a team with a class.
if u see this you eather reading in epub or from somewhere other than noble so just bear with it it may break the flow but nothing can be done sigh
Manchester City, of course, have proven that that doesn’t always work, but on the contrary, they have also proven that you need astronomical amounts of money, not just mediocre money.
“It seems there have been some small ups and downs over the past few weeks. I’m glad you seem to have overcome it well now. It makes the team stronger.”
After the game, coach Milo said with a satisfied expression in the locker room. It seems he had similar thoughts to Jamie.
“It is not an exaggeration to say that if we beat the next opponent, we will cross the 8th or 9th ridge of winning the league. Then we can be stronger.”
if u see this you eather reading in epub or from somewhere other than noble so just bear with it it may break the flow but nothing can be done sigh
Milo then banged the whiteboard with his palm, just as former manager Charlie had done.
“Take West Ham United, let’s go catch Manchester City, the last gateway to winning the league.”
As the saying goes, if you win the next game, now if you catch Manchester City last, you can confirm the league title.
‘Let’s get stronger…’
Jamie really liked what Milo said.
