Special mission: Protect the players.
As July began, Notts County continued to churn out news of new signings and player acquisitions.
– Hector Hernandez signs new four-year contract, vows to commit to Notts County for life
– Richard Hunter signs new five-year contract, becoming Notts County’s highest-paid player.
– Stefan Bonavić signs new five-year contract, I am getting better every day in this team.
– Agiane Renault signs new 4-year contract, will make teams that gave up on him regret it
– Case Ward signs new five-year contract, everything here is fun, not just football.
– Peter Gray, who signed a new four-year contract, is currently focusing on passing training.
– Sam Turner signs new five-year contract, takes charge of Notts County’s defence
Hunter will be paid £60,000 a week. All the key players will be paid more than £50,000 a week. There has also been news of new players being brought in.
– Sandor Guzmics signs two-year contract with Notts County as a free agent.
– Steven Taylor, Manchester City’s youth prospect, has signed a two-year contract with Notts County on a free transfer.
– Will Chinese goalkeeper Du Lei continue the legend of Wang Hui and Kim Si Woong?
– McDonald, £1.2m move to Notts County, Scotland’s best full-back.
– Elliot, transferred as a free agent, is known for his quick feet.
– Gonzalez, a free agent, is not afraid of competing with Hector.
McDonald’s stats are 49, Elliott’s are 44, and Gonzalez’s are 50, so they can compete for a starting spot in the second division, but they are difficult to find in the Premier League. The three players are players that the club’s scouts found with difficulty, and Ki-shin also agreed to recruit them.
Nice and Juan signed a youth contract. When Roberto came to sign the contract, he was forcibly taken to the hospital and examined. The results showed that if the bone that had not been properly attached was broken and reattached, he would be able to walk like a normal person. The company and the club each agreed to pay half of the treatment costs. It did not take a supernatural ability to recognize the talent of Juan, who was soon to turn 15.
Nice is currently working out. He eats meat four times a day to gain weight and build muscle. The physical coach he brought in for a lot of money will help Nice change his body to the right weight in three months. Nice, who was happy at first, says that he now gets cramps in his stomach whenever he eats.
Juan is developing a lifestyle of regular training, rest, and sleep. He wants to grow as tall as possible. He also focused on training positioning and movement when his teammates have the ball. He also started from the beginning to build basic skills that are somewhat lacking compared to dribbling and breakthrough.
Players with good dribbling and breakthrough skills are sometimes mistaken for having good fundamentals, but Juan’s trapping was only 4. His fundamentals are also 6, which is not bad for his age, but if he can improve these two, he will become an even better player. Juan was also impressed by the special training plan he had made for himself and a dedicated coach assigned to him, so he trained hard.
Du-Ray is also focusing on building his body. Unlike Nice, who builds his body with beef, Du-Ray built his body with chicken. This is because their constitutions are different. In particular, Du-Ray has weak arm and upper body muscles for a goalkeeper, so he needs to increase his lacking muscle strength.
These three should be considered as out of the line this season. It will take at least a year just to build up their bodies and build up their fundamentals. Juan and Nice, in particular, will have to put a lot of effort into training their movements without the ball. Their teamwork is a miserable 1.
Without exception, there has been a flood of transfer inquiries about Turner. Turner’s rating dropped after conceding a huge goal in the Champions League last year. This was because his weakness of not trying to get out of the goal was revealed in any situation. However, his rating actually improved after he showed a stable performance without wavering in the Championship.
There are many teams in the lower and middle leagues who want to take Turner, who reacts quickly and often makes super saves. Especially for teams that use defense-oriented tactics, Turner is someone they want to bring in even if it means pulling a golden carriage. The same goes for the top teams in the league. Manchester United’s De Gea is also a keeper who doesn’t make many appearances. Compared to De Gea, who makes mistakes occasionally, Turner rarely makes mistakes, so if he’s raised well, he can become a regular player, and with his current abilities, he’s good enough to sit on the bench.
Usually, when news of a player’s contract renewal comes out, the transfer inquiries tend to decrease. However, inquiries about Turner, Hector and Bonavich continued. There were also many inquiries about Hunter, but he was no match for the three as he declared in public that he would never leave Notts County.
Most of the players who had been in the team since the 4th division left the team. Except for the backup keeper and Dixon, they went to the 3rd or 4th division. Dixon cried after signing a 3-year contract with a weekly salary of 12,000 pounds. He knows his ability is lacking, but he wants to play at least one Premier League game. So he wanted to play as a substitute during the remaining 1 year of his contract, and the club gifted Dixon with a 3-year contract.
The team atmosphere was somewhat chaotic due to many players leaving. However, thanks to the efforts of Ki-shin and the club, the players were able to be kept. As teams that need to strengthen their players cannot continue to hold on to players with low potential, transfer inquiries began to decrease after mid-July.
However, as August began, inquiries about transferring Cha Beom-soo suddenly began to pour in. Since the Olympics are mainly for players under the age of 23, many scouts were watching. Korea surprised many people by winning three group matches.
And at the center of it all was Cha Beom-soo. Thanks to Cha Beom-soo, we were able to deploy one more attacking player. And yet, the defense was flawless, so the team’s performance went up a notch. In three games, we scored eight goals and conceded only two. We conceded one penalty kick and one free kick.
### I am the refreshing demarcation line ###
The atmosphere of the Korean team was harmonious. Korea won 1:0 in the semifinals and advanced to the finals, but Japan lost 2:3 and failed to advance to the finals. The sadness was doubled when they lost in the second half after scoring two goals in the first half.
The players gathered in front of the TV and watched the live broadcast. The main characters of the live broadcast were Cha Beom-soo and Kim Si-woong. They were waiting for the two players to return to renew their contracts, but when inquiries about Cha Beom-soo’s transfer came flooding in, the club hurriedly dispatched an employee to Japan. S Group stepped in and made the re-signing scene air live.
“How much is your weekly salary?”
“They say it’s worth over 50,000 pounds. I’m so jealous.”
Someone took out a cell phone.
“That’s about 7,500 in our money. If we make 300 million a month, that’s 3.6 billion a year. Brother Beomsu, you’re amazing.”
There was a big laugh. When Cha Beom-soo started directing the defense, the players were able to clear their heads and focus more on the game. If you position yourself according to Cha Beom-soo’s instructions and do what you did during training, there won’t be any problems. Since you don’t concede goals, you gain confidence, so you move without hesitation and your concentration increases, so you make fewer mistakes.
“I heard that Siwoong is worth over 20,000 pounds.”
“Oh my, this guy is using Siwoong’s name so carelessly.”
There was a lot of bickering. Since they had advanced to the finals, their exemption from military service had already been decided. So the players felt relieved. After signing the contract, they took pictures and then the reporters asked questions.
“The finals are in two days. Please tell us your determination for the finals.”
“I also heard that the gold medal is not made of pure gold, but is plated on the outside.”
Laughter swept over Cha Beom-su’s words.
“But I think the honor that comes with the medal is far more valuable than the gold. And I think the gold medal we won is not just ours, but belongs to all the people of the Republic of Korea. On behalf of everyone who supports us, I will definitely win the gold medal.”
A loud round of applause was heard through the TV. At that moment, Lee Cheong-su suddenly stood up and grumbled.
“Damn, I was going to rest and just have a rough go of the finals, but my eldest brother is hitting me. I should go and train some more.”
“Brother, teach me how to shoot. My son asked me why I can’t score a goal.”
Left back Son Hyun-min suddenly stood up. As the two seniors stood up, the other players noticed and moved their buttocks. At that moment, coach Shim opened his mouth.
“Rest first. Later in the evening, Beomsu and Siwoong will be doing personal training together.”
The players got back on their butts. But the atmosphere was much heavier than before. As the excitement of advancing to the finals subsided somewhat, Coach Shim opened his mouth again.
“Did you know that Beomsu and Siwoong train individually every day? When I told them to rest, they said that they trained more when they were in England. And they also said this.”
Coach Shim continued speaking, focusing the players’ attention.
“When I go back to England I have to deal with the ‘real guys’. They’re not as soft as the Olympic team.”
“Then, if we just trust in our Beomsu hyung, is it possible to win a gold medal?”
The players giggled at Lee Cheong-su’s words. The heavy atmosphere became lighter, but it was not as relaxed as before. The posture was relaxed, but the shoelaces were tied tightly, like a string that could be pulled taut at any time.
“Cheongsu, you keep trying to be like me. When did my Beomsu hyung become your older brother?”
Coach Shim’s words once again caused an explosion of laughter. In fact, the reason the players were gathered together to watch the contract signing between Cha Beom-soo and Kim Si-woong was to ease the tension. He hoped that by seeing the young players succeed, they would be a little more enthusiastic in the final game.
When the atmosphere became too heavy due to Cha Beom-soo’s remarks, Lee Cheong-soo quickly relaxed the atmosphere. He relaxed and tightened it, relaxed and tightened it again, and the atmosphere became really comfortable. An atmosphere of tension but no worries was formed, and the entire team was determined to win.
As the atmosphere became more appropriate, the director and coaches left first. If they continued to stay together, the atmosphere could easily become heavy again. Director Shim recalled a private conversation with Cha Beom-soo a few days ago.
“Starting around February of this year, the game suddenly got easier. You can kind of guess what the person who gets the ball is going to do. I had high expectations because it was the Olympics, but it’s easier than the championship here. I really want to win the gold medal.”
Coach Shim also had that feeling when he was a player. However, that feeling only lasted for two games and disappeared. After that, no matter how hard he tried, he never felt that feeling again. Cha Beom-soo has been in that state for half a year already.
‘I’m Pororo, and this guy is Nengsil.’
I want to be the national team coach. If only Cha Beom-soo were here, we could achieve good results. But not right away. If Cha Beom-soo, who is not even 20 years old, were to lead the defense of the senior national team, the team unity would be broken. The Olympic team is still made up of young players, so if you set the mood appropriately, everyone would be swept away, but it would be difficult for the senior national team. This is because Coach Shim himself does not have the charisma to lead the players, nor has he achieved absolute results as a player or coach.
