Chapter 19 Jersey No. 13

St. Pauli Club.

Zhen Shaolong, Kruze and Freiberg all came to the first team to report on the first day.

Under the leadership of the staff, they first went to the locker room, selected their own wardrobe, and received training jerseys.

After packing up the things, go to the infirmary for physical examination.

Physical testing is a project that must be carried out before entering a professional team. The physical testing of general clubs focuses on checking whether players have hidden dangers of illness, and secondly, having a comprehensive understanding of their physical condition.

The former is not needed.

Zhen Shaolong, Kruze and Freiberg are all players of the St. Pauli Youth Team. They undergo several physical examinations every year. The club has records of their health.

Physical testing is mainly aimed at physical abilities.

For example, fat content, grip strength, muscle stretching, explosive power, etc. are all within the range of the test.

These data can help head coach Bergman and other coaching staff members to have a detailed understanding of their physical condition.

There are many physical test projects, and it took nearly a morning.

At noon, Zhen Shaolong and the other two went to the restaurant to have a meal and finally met the first-team players who had finished training.

Zhen Shaolong and the other three have been staying in the youth team. They can't be completely unfamiliar with the first team, nor can they call out a few names at all. They just stayed in the corner to eat. However, many of the players who were dining recognized them, especially Zhen Shaolong sitting opposite him.

"Look! It's that Asian boy!"

"His name is Zhen!"

"Yes, it's him!"

"I heard in the morning that new players joined, but I didn't expect that this Asian boy is really there."

"Other, two. By the way, that short man is called Frey, I know him, the genius of the youth team!"

"There is another guy who doesn't know his name..."

“…”

The players in the restaurant talked without any evasion. Kruze was a little sad because he was the only one who was called "the guy who didn't know the name".

Zhen Shaolong and Freiberg both laughed.

at the same time.

Head coach Bergman went to the infirmary and checked the physical test results of Zhen Shaolong and the other three. The detailed data were not very meaningful. Bergman mainly looked at the final evaluation-

One is the injury rating.

One is the ability to confront.

The ability to confront each other is easy to understand. When players participate on the court, they will definitely face physical confrontation with their opponents.

This evaluation data is very important.

Strong confrontation ability is a big plus point for players. In the professional league, physical confrontation is very important. Whether it is offense or defense, you need to fight against your opponent. As long as you have strong confrontation ability, even if you have poor skills, your performance will not be too bad.

The three people's confrontational ability assessment is not optimistic.

Kruze has the highest evaluation of confrontational ability, with a rating of B+, which is almost at the mid-level in the first team.

Freiberg, secondly, has a rating value of B-, barely qualified.

Zhen Shaolong...

“D?”

Even though Bergman was prepared, he was still surprised to see this rating, "Are you sure?"

In front of Bergman is Holm, a nutritionist, a physical exercise expert, and is also responsible for first-team physical training.

Holm nodded affirmatively, "Of course, I'm sure, he's too thin, and has poor strength and endurance. The only advantage is that he's not easy to get injured." He pointed to one under the physical test form, "His injury rating is A+, which is rare, and should be the highest in the team."

Bergman was a little relieved.

However, poor combat ability to level D means that it is difficult to perform in the game. What's the use of not being easy to get injured?

Bergman regretted letting Zhen Shaolong enter the first team.

Afterwards, Bergman checked the injury ratings of Kruze and Freiberg, namely B- and C.

B-It's nothing to reach, it's at a normal level.

C is a bit bad.

Injury rating C means that it is easy to get injured in the game.

A young player under 20 years old, with such a low injury rating, means that his future career may be full of ups and downs.

afternoon.

Zhen Shaolong and the other two finally met head coach Bergman.

It was an internal training ground next to the locker room. It used to be a five-person football venue, but now half of it is used as a storage room. There are also several sports equipment for players to exercise nearby.

"You can choose the number you want." Bergman asked them to choose the number, and then they could go to the training ground.

You don't want any number.

Although there are no exact rules, each team follows a general concept: select numbers in sequence from the defensive position to the offensive position.

No. 1 is undoubtedly the goalkeeper's number.

From 2 to 6, the defensive line numbers (there are also defensive midfielders).

No. 7, wing forward, forward.

No. 8, core midfielder.

No. 9, the team's center and core forward.

No. 10, the team's soul, midfielder, front midfielder, organizer.

No. 11, shadow forward, assaulter.

...

After the 11th, there is no definite concept, but the numbers of good numbers must have been used by other players.

Among the St. Pauli team, the only numbers that can be used before No. 30 are 13, 19, 21 and 25.

Kruze chose No. 25.

Freiberg chose No. 21.

It was Zhen Shaolong's turn, and he said a little strangely, "Don't you choose No. 13? No. 13 is very far ahead?"

"No. 13? No, Zhen, I suggest you choose No. 19." Freiberg kept wavering his hands, his face saying 'Don't do that'.

"Why?"

"Don't you know the meaning of No. 13?" Kruze asked.

"Is it a taboo? I know that people who believe in Catholicism and Christianity are very taboo about the number thirteen..."

"Who cares about that!" Freiberg scrambled to popularize common sense for Mr. Zhen. "The pressure on No. 13 is too great. Ged Muller, you must have heard of this name. He is a German bomber and a legendary star! He still maintains the World Cup goal record!"

Kruze nodded, "In Germany, No. 13 represents 'the best', the best recognized by everyone. In the German national team, No. 13 belongs to Riddle, then Volar, and now Barack... So no one will choose No. 13 unless he is confident of being the best."

Zhen Shaolong understood.

"Then you are No. 19." Bergman said with a smile as he listened to the discussion of the three of them.

"No, I choose No. 13. Is that OK, Mr. Bergman?" Zhen Shaolong asked seriously.

"It's OK, but... are you sure?" Bergman looked at Zhen Shaolong with some confusion.

"Do you want to be a joke?"

Kruze persuaded, "As long as you wear the No. 13 jersey, you will be under heavy pressure. Zhen, you have to think clearly."
