Chapter 52 - Chapter 53

The Beloved

After guessing it was impossible to find Beckham, Xiao Ming began to worry about whether Manchester United would loan Beckham to Leiden Oriental, the British-Central team. Just use his mind to think about the gap between the British-Central and the Premier League. Isn’t Ferguson worried that Beckham would not get enough exercise in the British-Central?

It’s no wonder that Xiao Ming has never seen the world. Beckham made him feel restless. You should know that Barack’s fame and achievements in world football will not be smaller than Beckham in the future, but Beckham’s future commercial value will be far above Barack!

If fans don’t know Barack’s name, then there are many other names that are not fans who know Beckham! Beckham is a microcosm of the high commercialization of modern football, allowing people to know that stars can not only bring passion on the court, but also become the focus of the spotlight off the court!

If Beckham plays for a while in Leiden East, it will become a kind of capital for Leiden East in the future. Leiden East, which has no history, wants to attract more and better players and attract more attention, any factors must be taken into account. This will become a very important step for Leiden East's future development!

Xiao Ming, who was anxiously waiting, soon received the news. Manchester United refused Leiden Oriental's transfer request for Beckham without any surprise. Even though Xiao Ming shouted out a high price of 5 million pounds - although Manchester United's chairman Edwards was a little moved, he was rejected by Ferguson. They just agreed to Leiden Oriental's loan request for Beckham. From now on, Leiden Oriental can loan Beckham until the end of the season, and Manchester United will not be allowed to recall Beckham in advance.

The last one is Xiao Ming strongly requested to add it, because he knew that for a player like Beckham, if he wants to truly display his abilities, he needs to adapt to the team and the team needs to adapt to him. Xiao Ming doesn't want to lose Beckham just after adjusting his team's tactics. If that's the case, it's better not to come.

After learning the news, Xiao Ming sighed. As expected, Sir Ferguson was not confused. You should know that spending five million to buy a young player now is simply a sky-high price, but Ferguson was unmoved and was willing to rent it out to death. When there was no way, Xiao Ming could only settle for the second best.

Xiao Ming sighed at the moment when Ferguson was really cunning and began to prepare to welcome this future heartthrob.

Of course, Beckham is still just a young sunny boy now, and Xiao Ming will not take the initiative to welcome Beckham. It’s not that he is too arrogant. The main reason is that other players in the team think that Xiao Ming values ​​this young player who has loaned from Manchester United to surpass them. You should know that even Jin Kraze and Barack would come to the team to report it themselves after signing a contract with Leiden East. If Xiao is obviously too enthusiastic, it will make it difficult for Beckham to integrate into the team.

After blinking and thinking about it, Xiao Ming became a little strange. Isn’t it just November now? How can I transfer? Is the loan not subject to the transfer period?

Xiao Ming is still not very familiar with England's transfer rules. Although for Premier League teams, they can only introduce players in two transfer periods, for teams of other levels, they can transfer at any time after the start of each season, and it will not be truly closed until the transfer period in February of the following year, and there will be no restrictions on loans.

Manchester United agreed to loan Beckham to Leiden Oriental, which also had various factors in it. At this time in history, Beckham was loaned to Preston, who is also a British-Central team because he could not get a stable number of appearances at Manchester United. Leiden Oriental is also a British-Central team, and it is not uncommon to be able to loan Beckham.

In Xiao Ming's view, with Beckham's ability, even the English League One team will rush to loan, but in fact, he can think so, but others may not think so. After all, Beckham is less than 20 years old and has only played six times in the Premier League. His performance is not very eye-catching, and he is not as good as Gillespie's performance. Otherwise, he would not be him but Gillespie. What's more, teams in the League One level are not willing to choose to loan players, especially young players who are not likely to buy them. If they are not used on loan, they are useless, and if they can't play in the game, they will help top teams train young players, so Leiden Oriental has no competitors.

For Ferguson, he agreed to loan Beckham to Leiden Oriental because Leiden Oriental is now the leader of the English C League, and the overall strength of the team is strong. Secondly, Leiden Oriental's training base is good, so Ferguson is relieved. Third, Leiden Oriental has entered the top 16 of the League Cup. He may play in the next game against Liverpool. It is also a good exercise for such a strong team. Moreover, looking at Leiden Oriental's performance in the League Cup, he may have the same outstanding performance in the FA Cup. Beckham's chance of meeting a strong team is much greater than that of other English C teams!

The last reason is probably that Leiden East meets Liverpool, and Ferguson is probably happy to let Beckham, a proud disciple, cause some trouble for Liverpool...

This old man who is full of red face and always likes to chew gum for nothing is not as harmless as he looks...

As for Beckham himself, since the team wants to loan him out, he is willing to go to a place where he can play in the game to maintain his form. After all, it is just a loan, not a transfer. Ferguson also promised him before that as long as he maintains his form, he will gradually make him the main player next season.

As for why he chose Leiden East instead of another team, Preston, in addition to Leiden East being stronger, there is another very important reason - Beckham was born in London, and the area where he was born happened to be Walthamstot where Leiden East is located, and Leidenstone, not far from Leiden City...

Anyway, they are playing in the English Premier League, so it is always better to choose a team in my hometown...

"David, welcome you."

Beckham was still a little nervous when he pushed open Xiao Ming's office. As a Waltham Stowe, he was still a little concerned about the hometown team of Leiden Oriental. At least he knew that Leiden Oriental is now an Asian. At the same time, this Asian American had a very good temper. Last season, he almost had a conflict with a group of irritable fans and directly scolded him on the court...

However, when he saw that the boss and head coach was just a young man who was a few years older than him, he couldn't help but be surprised.

After Xiao Ming smiled and said something to Beckham, Beckham came to his senses: "Thank you, boss."

Now Beckham is not the heartthrob with a changeable image in the future. His middle-parted blonde hair is no different from the sunny boy who hit Wimbledon with a shocking shot that Xiao Ming saw in later generations. He still had a shy smile on his face.

"So fucking handsome." Xiao Ming sighed. He still liked the current Beckham more. On the contrary, he believed that the future Beckham was far less handsome than the current Beckham...

"I hope you don't feel bad about being in a British-Central team, and don't doubt that I can't use you. I know a lot about your characteristics. Believe me, you will definitely find the fun of playing football here, even if it's only half a year." Xiao Ming said confidently.

Beckham nodded. He believed the words of this young boss. In Leiden East, he could have more opportunities to play, which is one of the reasons why Beckham agreed to be loaned to the British C team. Now that the boss promises to use him well, what else is he not satisfied with?

After getting Beckham done, Xiao Ming began to consider how to arrange Beckham to play.

Of course, such players cannot be placed on the bench, but Xiao Ming also knows that players like Beckham are not like Barack. They can immediately work in a lineup. Just like Xiao Ming used to play live games, Beckham is not the first choice for some players because he is not fast and the accuracy of the cross is difficult to reflect immediately. Players like this need to play their greatest role and ability in the environment he is familiar with.

Xiao Ming had a very simple thought before. Anyway, there is no right forward in Leiden East's main lineup now. The attack on the right is basically done by Carl's assist and Hackby often pulling to the side. It is enough to let Beckham play the right forward, but after thinking about it carefully, he found that there seemed to be no player in the main lineup who could be taken down.

All three midfielders are very important. Barack is the hub connecting the midfield and frontcourt, and Wilkinson is the guarantee of defense. Holland's speed can make up for Wilkinson's slow turn. He can often return to the central defender to help defend. Jin Kraze is even more unable to replace him. His speed and breakthrough ability are incomparable to Beckham.

The two forwards cannot be replaced. The combination of one high and one fast is the basic configuration. Hack is more important than speed, and Ward's ability to grab points is more important. With Beckham's cross, it would be a waste not to have a center in the penalty area who has excellent grab points.

After thinking about it, I can only make plans on the defender.

At this time, Xiao Ming realized that he had no mature tactical style before, and he sent the eleven best players in the team to the court and let them play by themselves. Although he also arranged some targeted tactics in some games, most of the time he still relied on the players' own state and abilities to play.

To put it well, this is called being unconventional, and to put it in a bad way, it is simply a method of hurting people with its original nature and having the least technical content.

After discussing with the coaching staff for a long time, Xiao Ming finally determined his first set of tactics.

With Leiden East's current attack lineup, it was a bit of a waste to use four defenders, so Xiao Ming decided to take left-back McCassy from the main lineup, and then let Holland return to the defense line to play the center back, push Carl into the midfield and form an offensive partner on the right. Although Carl is a right-back, his attack ability is not bad and his speed is faster than Beckham. He pulled out the gap, giving Beckham free time to cross. As for the left, Jinklaze's offense is enough to make the opponent's right-hand side have no chance of attacking, and Holland and Wilkinson take turns to fill the left side, so there will be no major problems in defense.

Now Leiden East's offensive lineup has a sharp breakthrough from Jin Kraze on the left, Beckham's accurate cross from the right, and Barack, who can be inserted at any time, has excellent long-range shooting ability, which simply replicates Manchester United's terrifying midfield offensive line in the future!

In the future, Manchester United's midfielder will use Giggs to break through on the left, Beckham makes a cross from the right, Scholes in the middle is not showing any signs of his appearance, and he occasionally inserts a long shot to solve the opponent!

Although this lineup may not be as natural as Manchester United in the future, it is a waste of money to use a slaughter to kill a chicken!

On the training ground, Beckham quickly won his position in the team with his sunny smile, accurate free kicks and excellent crosses. The first person to be happy was center Ward. Having a cross-exact wing road is a great thing for him, the center!

Beckham was also surprised by the ability of some players in Leiden Oriental on the court, especially Jin Kraze. In Beckham's opinion, his personal ability is not even worse than his teammate Giggs! Can the English-Central team have such an outstanding player?

In the next game, Leiden Oriental began to show its strength in the league.

The first game Beckham participated for Leiden Oriental was the first round of the Qualifying Cup knockout round, and he played against Swansea, which was ranked in the middle of the British and C rankings at home. The game was very easy to win. Leiden Oriental, who started all the main players, easily defeated his opponent with a score of 2-0. In the 37th minute of the game, Beckham used a beautiful cross on the right to help Ward open the first record!

"Bei's arc!" Xiao Ming was almost excited and burst into tears. He knew that history and watching history happen around him were completely different. Seeing that Bei Shuai, who is still so young, kicking the full moon scimitar in the game, Xiao Ming was simply unparalleledly satisfied.

In the next round of the league, Leiden East won again. In this game, Beckham did not assist or scored a goal. However, other teammates discovered one of Beckham's advantages, that is, although he is good at crossing, Beckham is still very capable of running. He actively returns to defend while defending and can stand up when attacking. Although there is no technical statistics, his teammates estimated Beckham's running distance in the game, and he is probably not inferior to Barack, who is recognized as the best runner in the team!

Now everyone was convinced by Xiao Ming's move to put Beckham in the main lineup. The role of such a midfielder who can run and run and actively returns to defend is not easily expressed by technical statistics. In Leiden East, Barack's performance on the court is not as eye-catching as Jin Clarze, but the players in the team all recognize that Barack's role on the court is not as smaller as Jin Clarze. Beckham's role on the court is not just crossing and free kicks, not to mention that Beckham's crossing and free kicks are still so outstanding!

Xiao Ming felt extremely relieved to see Beckham integrate into the team so quickly. At the same time, he also held a glimmer of hope in his heart, allowing Beckham to understand the uniqueness of Leiden East, and perhaps there will be a chance to keep him...

After having three midfielders, including Jin Kraze, Barack and Beckham, and the cooperation between these people is more skillful, Xiao Ming has the courage to compete with Liverpool head-on!

If you want to fight against Liverpool, which has super midfielders such as Barnes, Redknapp and McManaman, in the midfield, Leiden East cannot be too far behind the opponent!

Moreover, after entering the fourth round of the League Cup, Xiao Ming lost his role in his invincible mystery in the League Cup. The third round of the League Cup is relatively easy to get. At the same time, Leiden Oriental has sent all the main players in these games, that is, don't expect Liverpool to be inadequate in terms of strength towards Leiden Oriental like Sunderland.
