Football: Rejected by the national team, I flew to England

Chapter 0068 – With a big heart like Lin Xu, he shouldn’t worry about so many!!!

At this time.

The players have also warmed up.

Lin Xu got down from the court.

Southgate, who was standing on the sidelines, stopped him.

The young young marshal in England looked at the equally young and even a little young and immature in front of him, and asked with a smile, “Are you nervous?” ”

The first time you are in the national team squad, you can get a chance to play.

And it was in place of Kane.

Started at the World Qualifiers.

Although this has something to do with Kane’s recent sluggish performance at the club.

But Southgate still doubts from time to time that his decision is correct these days.

He and Darren’s personalities are not quite the same.

Darren is a man who makes a decision without thinking about the consequences.

And he will keep repeatedly questioning himself at Lin Xu’s age, can he withstand such a lot of pressure before the matter is finally concluded?

Will he be pulling out seedlings and growing.

Lin Xu is not the same as Bellingham, who was first recruited by him last year.

Bellingham moved to Dort before he was called up and played in the top flight, and Lin Xu is now just a Championship player who has played four official first-team games in the Championship relegation team.

Is it really appropriate to let Lin Xu withstand the attention of so many people and start the field?

Maybe it’s better to make the transition as Bellingham did, calling up first and slowly finding opportunities to give a little more playing time near the end of the game?

Southgate always had concerns of one kind or another.

But before the game.

When he saw that he was worried about such an assistant coach Holland telling him that otherwise Lin Xu would be put on the bench first and let Kane go on, Southgate hesitated and finally rejected the offer.

He knows.

Whether Lin Xu can withstand such pressure or not, from the moment he was called up to the national team, these pressures are destined to accompany Lin Xu’s entire career.

Kane is a very good player, there’s no doubt about that.

But Southgate’s instincts told him that Lin Xu was the piece of the puzzle that the England national team had been missing.

All this time he has been watching the games in Petersburg.

Lin Xu is improving almost every game.

From speed to ball control.

And it’s a clear progress.

That’s what surprised Southgate the most.

He can’t imagine how big a threat England will be up front if Lin Xu can continue to improve like this and wait until next year’s World Cup officially starts.

Or.

Even if next year’s World Cup doesn’t work.

As long as Lin Xu can keep improving, he can continue to realize his own talent.

Next.

Even the next one.

At Lin Xu’s age, there will always be a World Cup that will become the core of England and will take England to the Hercules Cup.

Even if the man who coached the national team at that time was no longer he Southgate, it didn’t matter, he was willing to keep this spark of hope for the Englishman.

Hearing Southgate’s question, Lin Bi looked around the court.

Andorra’s home stadium, despite its name, sounds big but really small.

Not even as big as their home stadium to Petersburg, a small team that has been mixed in League One in the past.

Let’s be honest.

If his international debut had been at a place like Wembley Stadium, where the stands were filled with 80,000 or 90,000 fans, he might have panicked.

But now.

Playing in such a small stadium that looks like a community stadium, there is really nothing to panic about.

“I’m not nervous, sir. Lin Xu looked at Southgate and said. ”

Some people on the national team call Southgate and call the boss, and some people will call the boss like Mr. Holland, but Lin Xu is still more accustomed to calling him Mr.

Every time he looked at the three-piece suit vest that Southgate wore, he felt that he was facing an English gentleman who was preparing to go to afternoon tea elegantly rather than a football coach.

Hear this answer.

Southgate glanced at Lin Xu.

The young man’s eyes were only full of fighting spirit, without the slightest hint of panic and nervousness.

The English young marshal’s mood suddenly relaxed.

Perhaps Holland is right.

It was he who thought too much.

Southgate thought to himself.

“Lin Xu has such a big heart, he shouldn’t worry so much. Just don’t be nervous. ”

Southgate patted Lin Xu’s shoulder.

If Darren were here, eighty percent would point to the National Stadium and the England fans who flew to Andorra and say, “Play well, this will be a new beginning.” ”

“But Southgate just looked at Lin Xu with gentle eyes, and finally said, go change clothes.”

Lin Xu nodded.

Turned around and walked towards the dressing room.

Foden caught up with him from behind.

Manchester City’s small midfielder walked beside Lin Xu, and the height gap between the two was particularly obvious.

However, Foden does not care, in the past few days at the St. George Park training base, the relationship between Foden and Lin Xu can already be described by leaps and bounds.

He smiled and walked to the dressing room with Lin Xu’s shoulder to shoulder, and asked as he walked, “What did the head say to you?” ”

Lin Xu smiled, “I didn’t say anything, Mr. asked me if I was nervous.” ”

“Ugh.”

Foden shrugged, “You’re making your debut, of course you’ll be nervous.” I remember making my debut and I was nervous that I couldn’t play. ”

“But it’s okay, I’m here.”

Foden has always been the youngest of Manchester City internationals, and now there is a younger Lin Xu than him, although Lin Xu is not from their Manchester City, but who let them play well.

With Lin Xu here, Foden can finally be a big brother.

Looking at Lin Xu, Foden had the expression of a big brother.

“I’ll pass the ball to you!”

7:55 p.m.

Ned in the live broadcast room also stopped making small talk.

“Okay, we can see that the players from both teams are already standing in the tunnel and the game is about to start.”
