Restricted Superstar

The Internet was not mainstream at the end of 2006 and early 2007. Costa didn’t know that the Internet had become a mess. He went on to introduce:...Xiao Donggao is a player with great potential, Benfica, Sporting Lisbon, Boavista, etc. The club is also paying attention to him, but we are the first to get there. Under our training, Xiao Donggao's ability will be quickly improved. In addition, he is the type of player we like, and once he is trained in professional football, he can grow quickly. I think he has a good future. His technical ability will continue to evolve and bring fans to enjoy..."

Finally, Costa gave Gao Xiaodong a meaningful look and said: "We look forward to him showing his abilities and scoring more goals!"

Gao Xiaodong was speechless, this old guy, he didn't forget to stimulate me at this time.

Costa finished speaking, and then it was Gao Xiaodong’s turn to speak. He first showed his No. 99 jersey. He is not a first-team player. He wants No. 9, No. 10, No. 11, but that’s impossible. The numbers are worn by the core of the team and have a symbolic meaning, so Gao Xiaodong applied for such a strange number.

After showing the jersey, Gao Xiaodong said: “It’s an honor to be a member of the great Porto. I like Portugal. I like Porto. Well, I also hate Benfica and Sporting Lisbon. I like Porto’s greatest star Deco. He He is my idol. I hope to adapt to this place quickly and leave my name in the history of Porto like Deco. Finally, I wish the Porto team will always be the champion, and I wish the fans of Porto happy forever."

After speaking, Gao Xiaodong went to the court to show his footwork accompanied by the top of the club. Although Gao Xiaodong's skills are only between professional and amateur, there is no problem showing his footwork. Professional players have more skills. It is in confrontation, consciousness and imagination, not technology.

Playing in such a grand stadium is stressful. Even if there are not many fans, Gao Xiaodong’s footwork is slightly abnormal and did not receive much applause. However, it also dispels some fans’ doubts and worries to a certain extent, at least He is a fat guy who can still play football.

Signing a contract is just a show, it is not important, and the interview after signing is not important, just a few words of the old saying, what is important is the next step of Gao Xiaodong's arrangements.

It has been less than two weeks since the winter transfer window closes on February 1, so arrangements must be made immediately where Gao Xiaodong will play.

Gao Xiaodong is 18 years old this year. He can play in the U18 League, U19 League, Reserve League and Portuguese Super League. Of course, he can also be loaned out to play in the Portuguese Super League, Portuguese First, Portuguese Second, and Portuguese Third, as long as there is a club willing to ask him. .

After the signing ceremony, Costa summoned the head coaches of the three echelons and the first team to discuss the placement of Gao Xiaodong.

After watching Gao Xiaodong's game and training videos, the 60-year-old Jesuado, the head coach of the first team. Ferreira immediately said bluntly: "Xiao Donggao is not up to the level of the first team, and he can't even play as a substitute. Let's talk about it in a year or two. I have something to go."

The status and power of the first-team head coach is far greater than that of the echelon coaches. Ferreira is unwilling to waste time on Gao Xiaodong. Even the chairman Costa has no choice but to interfere with the head coach's business.

Although Gao Xiaodong hopes to catch the Dongfeng of Porto's first team and win a championship, Ferreira said that he can't even play as a substitute, and he will give up. If he can't play, even if Porto won the League Cup and the Champions League three. The crown king has nothing to do with him.

Costa said to the three echelon coaches: "The three of you talk about your views."

Due to the old grievances between Gao Xiaodong and U17 coach Pereira, Pereira made Gao Xiaodong's reputation in the echelon coaches, saying that he was a thorn, bad water, and affect the unity of the team, so the three echelon coaches are all I don't want Gao Xiaodong, but I can't say no directly.

U19 head coach Paul laughed and said: "It's not a simple matter. Gao is 18 years old this year, and he just happens to play the U18 league with Adolf."

U18 head coach Adolf Lopez thought, Paul, this bad bear wants to hurt me, he immediately said: "Gao Xiaodong is in good health and has a sophisticated consciousness. I think I should play U19 league with U19. ."

Paul quickly refused: "You should train according to your age group, you can't leapfrog, and he hasn't reached the level of leapfrog."

Costa watched Paul and Lopez pushing around and didn't want Gao Xiaodong, so he asked the reserve coach Grebel, "What do you think of Xiaodong Gao?"

Greebel is a Dutchman. He has a picky vision and doesn't want Gao Xiaodong. He said in a high-sounding manner: "He is still playing in the reserve league. Why not follow Lopez? The biggest change in players is from 18 to 21. In the past three years, this is a player’s "finalized" period. Instead of playing as a substitute in the reserve team, it is better to go to U18U19 to play the main force. The purpose of training is to compete. If you train for a week and you do not have a game on the weekend, then How do you know whether you are training well or not? The only criterion for testing training is competition. Young people must compete as much as possible."

Gao Xiaodong didn't understand Portuguese, and the translator didn't translate for him. He could only stand there like a deaf man and wait.

Costa heard the meaning of the three coaches. He didn't want it, but wanted to dodge it. So where exactly should Gao Xiaodong be trained? By the way, I should ask Gao Xiaodong his own opinion, this kid is very opinionated.

Costa said to Gao Xiaodong: "Gao, you must not be able to enter the first team, do you have any plans for yourself?"

Gao Xiaodong naturally had a direct plan, he had already calculated it.

According to the rules of the system, the youth league is not considered a professional league and cannot get points. If you don’t get points, playing more games won’t help Gao Xiaodong’s promotion. The improvement by his own hard training is too limited. Mainly It still depends on the system, so Gao Xiaodong either chooses to stay in the first team to play in the Portuguese Super League, or rent out to play in the low-level leagues. Of course, if there is a Portuguese Super League team that wants him, it would be better, but in terms of his ability, This is basically a fantasy.

So Gao Xiaodong's remaining choices are the three choices of Portuguese C, Portuguese B, and Portuguese A.

According to system regulations, the Portuguese Super League is a second-tier league, Portugal A is a third-tier league, Portuguese second is a fourth-tier league, and the semi-professional Portuguese C third is a fifth-tier league.

Win a game in the Portuguese Super League with 2 points, a tie with 1 point, a substitute win with 1 point, a tie with 0.5 points, a game with a starter win by 1 point, a tie with 0.5 points, a substitute win with 0.5 points, A tie with 0.1 points, a 0.5 point win in Portuguese second, no other points, a 0.1 point win in Portuguese third, no other points.

In this case, if you want to upgrade as soon as possible, Portugal C must not go. It takes only 0.1 points to win a game, 10 points to win 100 games, and 300 games to win to upgrade. Even if you are a cup champion, you will have to play for at least 8 years and fight for eight years. , Even if Gao Xiaodong is mentally disabled, he will never choose Portuguese C.

Portuguese second wins a game with 0.5 points, 10 games with 5 points, 60 games with 30 points, at least two seasons, and one championship. If there is no bet with Costa Na’s old fox, it doesn’t matter if Gao Xiaodong is promoted to professional D-level in two seasons. Anyway, Gao Xiaodong is only 18 years old, but with the bet, Gao Xiaodong will score 20 goals in three and a half seasons. It was a cup match with Portuguese Super League goals, other levels are not counted, so choosing Portuguese second to complete the task is too thrilling, accidentally, the old hen turned into a duck, the 200,000 euros in hand became 8,000, which is absolutely unbearable by Gao Xiaodong of.

Then there is only one option left, which is to go to Portugal League, and to go to the strongest team, even if it is a substitute, there are 0.5 points for a win, and 0.1 points for a tie. If the starter comes on, then a win is 1 Points, plus goals scored, as long as the luck is not bad, two seasons can almost be upgraded, if you win another cup championship, the upgrade will be faster.

The key to the question is, will there be a Portuguese team that wants him?

However, no matter whether there is a Portuguese team or not, Gao Xiaodong must make the choice of renting out. Only in this way can he have the hope of upgrading. So Gao Xiaodong said without hesitation: "Chairman, I want to rent out. The Portuguese second and Portuguese first exercise, I think the game with adults is more able to exercise people."

Hearing Gao Xiaodong said that he wanted to rent out to play adult games, the three echelon coaches were surprised and funny. They said that adult games are more exercisers, but they are also more prone to injuries. Once injured, they will easily miss the ball season. Countless talents are all. It was ruined by injuries, and Gao Xiaodong's power had the upper hand in teenagers. It would not take advantage of adults. However, they were not familiar with Gao Xiaodong, and of course they would not tell him.

Costa promised Gao Xiaodong not to set up obstacles to his loan, so he agreed and said: "You can go out on loan. We will release the news to see which teams want you. Let's pick one. Now this For a while, you will be training with U18 for the time being, which team will rent you, and then which team will you leave to report to, okay, coach Lopez."

As soon as Lopez heard it, he practiced with him for less than ten days. Without worrying that he would make trouble, he said generously: "No problem, I will definitely make him improve during this time."
