Chapter 13 They are the future
Chapter 13 They are the future
When Quinn saw the substitution sign raised, he felt a jolt in his heart.
What? He's the one getting replaced?
But it's still very early!
Even if he didn't perform well, that doesn't justify kicking him out now.
This situation only occurs when someone is unable to continue playing or has lost the club's trust.
Li Yanqing hadn't had time to give him the new contract yet, which naturally made him think of the second possibility.
Is the club planning to drop him?
He kept his head down and jogged off the field, not even daring to look at Li Yanqing.
But the latter immediately patted him on the shoulder and smiled broadly. "Rest for a bit, I have good news for you later."
"Good news?" This gesture quickly put Quinn at ease, but also left him somewhat puzzled.
If there's good news, why would you want to be the one to take the stage?
Li Yanqing did not explain, but continued to direct the game.
Unsurprisingly, they lost in the end.
In the second half, Jami and Ogradi were brought on in succession, but they were still unable to turn the tide. In fact, they conceded another goal because their counter-attack went too far.
Kevin was the most furious about this.
"Li! What are you doing?"
"I've already given you my support, and even fired Palmer for your sake!"
"Is this how you repay me?"
He was furious; clearly, the incident where Will ambushed him yesterday was now being blamed on Li Yanqing.
The money was spent, Pamo left, and the game was lost.
In his view, this was a sign that the other party was not convinced of his authority.
He suffered a series of setbacks as soon as he got involved in the team's affairs.
Is this a sign of defeat to oneself?
Did he warn himself to stop interfering in the team's affairs?
"Kevin, this is a competition, it's normal to win and lose."
"There are four games left, and we only need five points right now."
"I will lead the team to avoid relegation."
Kevin was dismissive of Li Yanqing's explanation; he was no longer bothered to pretend to be amiable.
When Will went to confront him, the two sides completely broke off relations.
Your assurances are meaningless!
"Anyway, if we fail, you're fired next season!"
"boom!"
Judging from the sound on the other end of the phone, it seemed that Kevin had smashed his phone forcefully.
Li Yanqing didn't say anything, but hung up the phone directly.
He suddenly figured it out.
Anyway, Quinn has already got his contract. He's just a temporary worker, why should he be afraid of the team manager?
Even when discussing the future, we need to focus on successfully avoiding relegation first.
He has more important things to do.
"Don't look so sad, Quinn. Even though we lost, I'm still giving you guys the day off tonight."
"Huh? Th...thank you, boss." Quinn, who was sitting on the training field deep in thought, was startled by Li Yanqing's sudden appearance.
"I was just thinking about the game."
"That's good, I can think about it more."
The latter nodded and sat down next to him.
"But I think you should think more about yourself."
What made you lose your composure during the match?
Li Yanqing was referring, of course, to the fact that his condition had suddenly and drastically deteriorated.
From the perspective of the competition, this means that he made significantly more mistakes.
"I......"
Quinn was silent for a moment before continuing.
"I don't want to lose, boss."
"Chowdhury can't play as a core player; he's too prone to making mistakes!"
"I keep thinking about covering for him, but I'm also worried about my own side, so..."
It must be said that his words made Li Yanqing very gratified.
At least he has the determination to win, which is why he values this kid so much.
In fact, Quinn has played three official matches in total, and this is the first time he has lost.
"Football is a competitive sport; there are winners and losers."
“Losing isn’t a terrible thing, Quinn.”
"What we should do is figure out why we lost?"
At this point, Li Yanqing stuffed the contract into his arms and then turned to leave.
"You don't need to come to training tomorrow. I'll give you a day off. Think it over carefully."
Looking at the head coach who had promoted him, Quinn seemed to finally understand something in that instant.
Then, he looked at the contract and slowly opened his mouth wide.
One thousand pounds?
That's fifty times his original salary!
The next day, at the training ground.
Although Li Yanqing gave Quinn a day off, he didn't rest and still came.
And it really scared the former.
Name: SiFrancis Quinn
Age: 16 years old.
Condition: Excellent.
Fatigue level: 30%.
Probability of injury: 1%.
Keywords: [Piercing Arrow], [A Flash of Inspiration], [A Player with Sudden Enlightenment].
In less than ten days, this kid suddenly gained a second entry!
A flash of inspiration, in layman's terms, is a spiritual insight.
Players with this skill are always highly intelligent and often perform unexpected maneuvers.
If he can master the technical feature terms, this kid will be a success!
However, this cannot be rushed; it requires sufficient time.
"Get Choudhury to work on defense, Chris!"
"Let's try a dual-mid-core formation!"
Li Yanqing immediately contacted Chris.
Before Quinn becomes the midfield maestro, let veteran Williamson mentor him first.
"Lee, don't you think you're being a little too biased towards Quinn?"
"We would give up the competition if necessary."
"Every game is important to us now."
Chris was very puzzled by this. In his eyes, there were many problematic players in the club, but he hadn't taken any of them into account.
They took extra care of this young man who had just come up from youth training.
If it weren't for Quinn, he wouldn't have gone to Kevin to bring Choudhury and Palmer back to the first team.
Ultimately, this led to the breakdown of his relationship with Kevin.
"Because I had high hopes for him, but he encountered some problems."
"It's just one game lost, it's nothing serious, Chris."
Li Yanqing suddenly thought of Mourinho, who was far away in Manchester.
Previously, Manchester United and Manchester City were six points apart. In order to win every game, they did not hesitate to make Rojo and Ibrahimovic play hard, and in the end, both of them were injured and had to leave the game.
His current situation is so similar to what it was back then.
The problem has simply become a psychological one for the players.
His disciple made a choice that was completely different from Mourinho's.
"Whether it's Quinn or Murphy, they are the future of the club."
"As for the game, we haven't reached our worst point yet, so please trust them!"
They will surprise us!
