Chapter 90 Selected followers

Zhang Yang didn't continue chatting with Weston. After lunch, he returned to the head coach's office, and then asked Aldous to notify David Livermore to come over.

The first-team players are taking a lunch break.

Most of them went to the club dormitory, and some were in the locker room, looking for a small corner to rest for a while.

Livermore was one of the few. He just stayed in the locker room, found a hidden corner to lie down, and listened to music to relax.

Usually, it won't be long before I fall asleep.

He was woken up today.

"Mr. Furnival?" Livermore was a little surprised, he sat up and took off his earphones.

Aldous nodded and said, "David, go to the head coach's office. Zhang said he has something to do with you."

"Boss?"

Livermore was a little puzzled, but he got up and went to the head coach's office. When he got outside the door, he saw Zhang Yang writing and drawing on the table, writing and drawing on a piece of paper with his brows furrowed, as if he was Why things bother.

"Boom! Boom! Boom!"

Livermore knocked on the door politely.

Zhang Yang raised his head, waved him to sit down, and then said, "David, I want to talk to you."

"Talk about what?"

"Talk about you, about football, about the team, or about the future?" Zhang Yang explained in a very general way, and found that Livermore seemed to be very nervous.

It was the first time he had encountered such a situation.

Although he is the head coach of the team, due to his young age, few players will be nervous when talking to him. If a few young players still talk about the past, David Livermore is already 24 years old. I'm still two years older, so what's there to be nervous about?
Livermore was not only nervous, but his expression became a little scared.

Just as Zhang Yang was about to speak, Livermore immediately said anxiously, "Boss, no, Mr. Head Coach, aren't you going to terminate my contract? Is it because of my poor performance in the last game? But you have to trust me, I will definitely Work hard! I still want to stay in the team, even if I play as a substitute, it doesn't matter whether I play or not..."

Zhang Yang's face turned dark immediately, "I didn't intend to terminate the contract with you! Besides, I never got involved in the contract issues between the club and the players."

After hearing this, Livermore looked at Zhang Yang carefully, as if he doubted the authenticity of the words, but when he saw that serious expression, he took a long breath and became much more relaxed.

"It's better not to terminate the contract!"

Zhang Yang didn't understand. He asked, "You signed a guarantee contract with the club, right? Why are you afraid of terminating the contract? If the club unilaterally terminates the contract, you should get all the remaining salary."

"That's not much!" Livermore sighed and said, "My weekly salary is [-] pounds. I renewed my contract in May last year, and the contract still has a period of one and a half years."

"A two-year contract?"

Livermore nodded and said, "Yes, when the contract expires, I will leave the team, but if I leave the team, I can only go to the lower leagues to find a job. My agent told me that I can stay in Miller." Wall, just try not to leave, because it is difficult for him to negotiate a contract with the same salary for me."

"If you leave Millwall, will you go to another club for a lower salary?"

Livermore shrugged, "My agent said it would be great if a club would sign me."

"Then why don't you consider leaving?" Zhang Yang asked, "I mean, if you don't think you are going to be a professional player, why don't you find other ways out? For example, to learn some skills, to do other things. Work. You can't spend your whole life at Millwall."

Livermore looked down.

He seemed to be thinking, then raised his head, and said hesitantly, "My younger sister is still in middle school, and my mother raised me from a young age, but I am a single-parent family, and my father left when I was a child. We only Can live on government relief money. In order to provide for her sister to go to a good school, she also worked some bad jobs..."

"Bad job?"

Livermore seemed to be taken aback, and stood up suddenly, "You look down on my mother too?"

Zhang Yang reacted immediately and explained, "Sorry, I didn't realize it just now, I understand your mother, she is great."

"My mum hasn't had that job since I've been a pro," Livermore said calmly. "My income is just enough for my sister to go to school. If I quit... I mean, leave Millwall. , looking for other jobs, the income will be reduced, and my sister can only transfer to another school."

Zhang Yang understood a little bit, but he still had some doubts, "What school does your sister go to? It's so expensive?"

"St. Paul Girls' High School!" Livermore said with some pride.

Zhang Yang was in awe.

There are nine public schools in the UK, and St. Paul's Girls' High School is one of them. It is also the only public school that only admits girls. Countless families who want their children to receive an elite education will try their best to hope that their children can enter this school. It's less than one percent. To be admitted to St. Paul's Girls' High School must be a very promising and outstanding student.

The so-called "public schools" in the UK are not literally "public schools", but the exact opposite. They are all pure "noble schools", and the fees are quite high.

Zhang Yang doesn't know the specific charges, but tens of thousands of pounds a year is still very easy.

He somewhat understood Livermore's situation.

Under such pressure, it's no wonder that he would rather "dumb his days" in Millwall and continue to play as a substitute than choose to leave to face a future that may be a little confused.

Zhang Yang changed the subject and asked the question he wanted to know, "David, what will happen to you when you become a big star?"

"Become a big star? Me?"

Livermore pointed at himself, as if he couldn't imagine, "I can't become a big star, it's hard for me to even play now!"

"I mean 'if'!" Zhang Yang twitched the corner of his mouth.

Livermore finally looked squarely at the problem, "What if? Well, I haven't thought about it, because I feel like... well, if I become a big star, I will definitely make more money, right? I will make my family's life Better yet, buy more new clothes for my younger sister, she can’t keep up with her classmates. I will also take my family to travel around so that my younger sister can see more of the outside world, and my mother said it would be good for her future.”

"How much money?"

"Save it up! If you need it in the future, it's always good to have more money in your account." Livermore said as a matter of course.

Zhang Yang nodded in satisfaction.

This is the 'decent' answer!
----

After Livermore left, a question suddenly appeared in Zhang Yang's mind——
Livermore?

A brawny man with an obviously slow mind, well-developed limbs, a simple mind, and a single mind in doing things.

his sister?

Can the IQ reach the level of St. Paul's Girls' High School?

This is not right!

Livermore's father left early, his mother worked 'that kind of work' for quite a while to raise him, and his sister, who was just starting middle school, was about ten years younger.

"So that's how it is..."

Zhang Yang suddenly realized, and shook his head annoyedly, thinking when did he become gossip, and then continued to think about the follower of the 'Yanling bewitching'.

He made a choice.

What he considers is not the player's family, the pressure, that has nothing to do with football, it is the player's own business.

He considers the player's potential and character.

Weston also has potential, but improving his ability in a certain aspect may only make up for his shortcomings, and it will not make him a player with outstanding performance. At that time, he will still only be able to serve as a substitute.

Livermore was different.

Livermore has many, many shortcomings, but his body is extremely strong, and he can play an amazing role on the court.

The last game is proof.

Livermore's sudden appearance disrupted Watford's defense and Millwall was able to get a chance.

What if you give Livermore a thought about his ability?

Like, long shot!

With Livermore's strong long-range shooting ability and strong physical support, he may be able to become the team's turret.

He's a threat whenever he gets the chance!

Apart from the abilities of the two, what Zhang Yang considers is character. A cheerful young man like Weston, even if his ability improves, will think that he is a 'genius' and will not be grateful to him.

Livermore was different.

He is a person in a desperate situation. If he is given the opportunity to succeed, he will definitely give back all kinds of trust.
