The next training was physical training. Eames tortured this group of players in various ways, as if they wouldn't let it go if they couldn't get up. The players privately complained whether the former Wimbledon player had a psychological distortion and enjoyed torture people.

However, the training of amateur teams does not have much technical content, and no one protests that the head coach is incompetent in training and is not as good as the level of the home.

After the afternoon training, most of the players said goodbye to their teammates and left in a dress of playing football. Just like they came to play football on weekdays, they went home just like this after playing football, which was very casual.

Kings Ranch is a very simple stadium, with no hot showers in the locker room. Even if it is cold water, there are only four spray heads. It’s okay to say that in summer, everyone can get used to washing cold water directly. What should I do when winter comes? No one thinks so much at the moment. Even if it is such a simple stadium, AFC Wimbledon may not have the money to rent.

Only a few people choose to simmer cold water here. In fact, everyone knows that taking a cold shower after strenuous exercise is not good for the health.

Chu Zhongtian is one of the few people. Because he is young and strong, he doesn't care whether it's good or not. He has almost been washed with sweat ten times, and his whole body is sticky. If he doesn't take a shower, it will be too uncomfortable. Besides, he has to take a shower when he returns to his residence, so he has to pay the water fee himself. It's better to wash it here.

"We'll go first, Chu." Xilin and Sullivan shouted in the shower in the locker room outside.

"Goodbye!" Chu Zhongtian responded while smearing his body with soap.

The cold water poured down from the spray head and washed his body. He felt very comfortable. Although he did not show any impatient mood during training, and although he liked physical training, he was also eager to do ball training like his teammates, and also longed for games... After all, he came here to play football, not here to practice running.

The joy of football cannot be experienced simply by running.

Chu Zhongtian remembered the plot of watching the Japanese cartoon "Football Young Player" before. The protagonist there was playing football to and from school, and he hated him to sleep with football. When he was a child, he had never done anything to play football to and from school, but he still did it when he was holding football to and from school... When he was very young, his father bought himself the first genuine leather football as a gift for him as a sixth birthday, and after he went out to play, he must take it home seriously and put it in the pool to clean it carefully...

At that time, he loved football so much: he couldn't bear to take off his newly bought jerseys even when he was sleeping, so he had to wear them while he was sleeping. At that time, he said that a beautiful jersey was the best and best clothes. He finally went out to play and took photos of his jerseys because this was his "fashion"; he had to wear the newly bought double-star shoes for a few laps even at home to feel the special elasticity brought by the rubber sole; on birthdays, nothing could make him more happy than receiving a gift like a new football.

Thinking about it now, it was so simple at that time... A genuine leather football, a new jersey, and a pair of new sneakers seemed like a treasure that could last a lifetime.

His love for football at that time was so pure without any impurities. At that time, he never thought about wearing the national team's jersey, winning glory for the country, and playing for the country. He didn't think about becoming a big professional football star. He didn't know what professional football is, nor did he know that playing football can become a big star. He just liked it simply, felt that playing football was very happy, he was very happy when he dribbled the ball, he was very happy when he blocked the opponent's breakthrough, he was very happy when he scored a goal, and he was very happy when he completed a wonderful pass. Of course, the most important thing was to win a game with his teammates, that was the happiest thing.

Later, as he grew older, these happiness gradually faded away from him.

He felt that some happiness would never be found.

Because of distractedness, I took a shower for a long time today. When Chu Zhongtian walked out of the bathroom, the locker room was empty. After changing his clothes alone, he walked out of the simple locker room, but was surprised to find Emily standing at the exit.

"The sky is getting darker and darker. I thought you have left. Only those who asked me found out that you are still inside. Hi, Chu." Emily greeted Chu Zhongtian.

"Hello, Emily." Chu Zhongtian came to his senses and said with a tribute. "Why are you here?"

"After helping the club to raise funds, I'll take a look at you. I didn't expect that when I came, your training was over. Is the training feeling okay?" Emily waited for Chu Zhongtian to come out at the door.

"Fortunately, they are all physical training, and I am best at it." Chu Zhongtian shrugged. "How is the fundraising matter?"

As soon as she talked about this, Emily laughed, with an unstoppable look of pride on her face. She stretched out two fingers to Chu Zhongtian:

"We only need £20,000 to rent the stadium for one year."

Chu Zhongtian noticed that what she said was "only 20,000 pounds". You should know that just eleven days ago, she said worriedly: "I think 20,000 pounds is too much, I don't know if we can get it together."

"Eleventh day has passed, we have raised 70,000!" She suddenly screamed loudly and screamed at Chu Zhongtian excitedly. "Seventy thousand pounds! It's enough to rent this stadium until 2006! We did it! We really did it! It took only eleven days to raise 70,000 pounds!!"

Chu Zhongtian watched Emily jump around him happily. He could see that the girl was really happy about it.

"We proved ourselves! Our love for Wimbledon football will not be weakened by the departure of that damn rich team! We can continue to use this stadium now, although it is small, but it doesn't matter..."

Emily suddenly calmed down again and looked up at the exterior wall of Kings Ranch. Compared to the home court used by Wimbledon, who was planning to move, it looked more like a middle school stadium.

"The Wimbledons were originally playing football on the public lawns in the city, and there were only 17,000 people in the Pulao Lane. We will always go back."

She looked up at the King's Ranch under the afterglow of the sunset. The court lost its original color and only had a brilliant golden color. It looked less dilapidated.

Chu Zhongtian suddenly thought that on the afternoon of the team's official establishment, the club's chairman Mr. Stewart said the same thing.

"Go to where you should go! Go to the top league! Go back to where you should go, Southwest London!"

The shouting in the small court was deafening, making him think he was in Old Trafford, or Wembley. The deafening shouting made him clench his fists and want to shout with them.

"What a pity. I can't stay here until the day I saw it."

Emily withdrew her gaze and turned her head to look at Chu Zhongtian.

"I'm just an international student." Chu Zhongtian shrugged and explained, "I will graduate four years later. Where will the team be then?"

Emily smiled: "No matter where you are in the future, when Wimbledon returns to the top league, I will definitely invite you back. You are Wimbledon's first player. Wimbledon's first foreign player in the new era, ha!"

Chu Zhongtian stretched out his hand to her: "A word is certain."

Emily held his hand: "A word is certain."

PS, two updates are over~~

Highlights: It is true that 70,000 pounds were raised in eleven days. You should know that Wimbledon is not a big club, and the number of fans is far less than that of those big teams. This shows that the loyalty of foreign fans to the teams they support is touching...

Also, please recommend it. It’s the last night of this week. Champion Legend is about to fall out of the homepage recommendation list. Please support from the front line~~~!
