During the training the next day, Gao Xiaodong came to the stadium early, where he practiced playing balls and was familiar with the ball nature.

Seeing Oliveira's car coming, Gao Xiaodong ran over happily, pulling Oliveira's car door and bagging him.

Olivera smiled and said in English: "What do you want to do if you have nothing to do?"

Gao Xiaodong said straightforwardly in English: "The forward has no position, I play in the midfield."

Oliveira almost blurted out how you could play in the midfield. Suddenly, she thought of the comprehensive technical characteristics that Gao Xiaodong showed, so she changed her words and said, "Let's talk about it later."

Speaking of it again, Gao Xiaodong felt a little cold. Besides, it was actually almost a synonym that he didn't say, and I didn't know where he was again and again.

However, before Gao Xiaodong had time to find Oliveira again, the opportunity came. During the match, the deputy Zener, the defensive midfielder, was hit by his teammates in the thigh. Oliveira was worried that something had happened to him, so she quickly asked him to come down and rest. It was less than ten minutes left. Thinking that Gao Xiaodong asked to play in the midfield, he temporarily asked Gao Xiaodong to play for Zener for a while.

The defensive midfielder is a tiring job. Players with talented and spiritual self-representation are unwilling to do it, and it feels like a senior white-collar worker doing miscellaneous work.

Seeing the head coach ask Gao Xiaodong, the forward, to play as a defensive midfielder, Robert and several other players who have objections to Gao Xiaodong laughed and thought Gao Xiaodong had fallen out of favor with the coach.

After several months of intensive training, Gao Xiaodong was very physically strong. He held on to the forward position for a long time. After replacing Zener's position, he immediately ran wildly to launch a highly oppressive pressing towards his opponent.

Gao Xiaodong is very strong. Gao Xiaodong squeezes and leans on the snatch, and his opponent's position will be gone. His chassis is still very low. Once he gets the ball, his opponent cannot grab it, kick it, and kick it. In addition to the overall situation, passing and prediction, the position of the ball cannot be compared with Zener, so in terms of stealing, protecting the ball and defense coverage area, Zener is not better than Gao Xiaodong.

The most exciting thing is Gao Xiaodong's steal against Robert. Robert shot a fake shot and hit the goal. As soon as he passed a defender, Gao Xiaodong suddenly cut from the back to between Robert and the ball, leaned towards Robert and put him on his body.

Robert thought he was so tall and strong, and there was no problem squeezing Gao Xiaodong away, but as soon as he came into contact, he didn't expect that Gao Xiaodong's elbow would rise when he leaned against him. Robert was tall and Gao Xiaodong was short, and his ribs hit the tip of Gao Xiaodong's elbow.

Robert was hit by Gao Xiaodong and almost broke his anger by his elbow under his ribs.

Robert bent down and raised his hand and shouted Gao Xiaodong to beat someone.

However, Gao Xiaodong's movements were very hidden, and the amateur referee Oliveira did not see them. Even if he saw them, Oliveira would not say anything. For defensive players, it is normal to use small movements. Being good at using small movements means that this player is very experienced.

Gao Xiaodong's performance surprised Oliveira. Robert was strengthened during the winter break. After the main striker Brandi came back, Rexos's offense was definitely not a problem, but in defense, Rexos only had Zena, and Lopez and Nice were almost undefensive. Landis said that he had both offense and defense, but in fact he had strong offense and weak defense. Once he needed to strengthen his defense, he was only Zena, and he didn't even have a substitute. If Gao Xiaodong had enough physical fitness, he would be much more useful to Rexos than to play as a forward.

Oliveira decided to change Gao Xiaodong's position in the next two days to see if he can do a good job in the midfield defensive task.

Not to mention, although the level is only an S-level amateur player between amateur and professional, Gao Xiaodong's strong body and obscene personality make up for this shortcoming. He is not inferior to midfielders other than Zener in defense, but the difference is offense. But that doesn't matter. Oliveira used either Gao Xiaodong's offense, but let him be a thug. The offense includes Lopez, Nice, Lantino and others. Gao Xiaodong only needs to steal, press, and then pass the ball to his teammates.

Oliveira was very happy when she saw that Gao Xiaodong played well in the defensive midfielder. The problem that had troubled him for a long time was finally solved. Let's see how the effect was in actual combat.

...

In the 20th round, Rexos played against Estoril at home. This game is extremely important to Rexos. If they lose again in this game and the three competitors win again, the gap between them and Rio Avi and Guimaraes will be more than three points. Then Rexos will really repeat the mistakes of last season this season.

On the day of the game, Carus, the chairman of the club who has never liked to care about the team's affairs, came to the team's training base.

After watching the training for a while, Chairman Carus was a little dizzy. Even though he was a pseudo-fan, he could see that the black-haired Chinese man Gao Xiaodong played in a position that was not a striker, and the striker was not as close as his penalty area.

"Victor, where is Xiao Donggao's playing now?" Carus asked Oliveira after the morning training.

"Defense midfielder." Oliveira said.

"Isn't he a forward?" Carus said in confusion.

Oliveira didn't want to talk to the chairman too much. The argument had a bad impact on all aspects. Oliveira said: "He has a bad sense of smell at the striker, his running and shooting skills are just like that. In addition, he doesn't have a tacit understanding with Robert, so he asked him to go to the midfield to exercise."

Carus is not easy to fool. He looked up and said, "I have read the news recently. Xiao Donggao performed poorly. Do you think he still has the ability to play? If not, the end of this season, I will give it back to Porto."

Oliveira said: "It's hard to say. Before the age of 18, there are few players who are better than others. More changes in players are from the three years of 18 to 21. During this period, players will be greatly affected by the outside world. I call this period a player's "definition" period. During this period, whether there is a high-level training, whether the diet is healthy, whether the family has good guidance, and whether there is a good routine of work and rest will make a player very different."

Carus said oh, but in fact he didn't understand it very well, and said, "You make the decision. I just reminded me that I came today to encourage the players. Now we have reached the point where we have to win. I have prepared some bonuses and I will give it after the game. I must win this game."

The winning prize for the game is included in every player's contract. Oliveira does not like to repeat rewards, but now it is an extraordinary moment and something extraordinary must be done, so Oliveira nodded and agreed to Chairman Carus' rewards to the players.

After the training, the players came to the conference room for a short meeting, and the club chairman Carus Oliveira made an inspirational speech.

"...Fans all over the world know Porto, and fans in Europe know Boa Vista, but only Portugal fans know that there is also a Rexos in the Porto region. This is our shame. In the Porto region, our fans have as many fans as Porto, and they are stronger than Boa Vista. We have four generations of hardcore fans, such as Alexander, but we can only hang out in the Portuguese, which is a shame. This season, we must upgrade. In this game, we must win, which is one hundred thousand euros. If we win, all the players on the court have a share. If we don't win, I will take it away..."

After saying that, Carus opened the box and the colorful banknotes inside were exposed.
