Chapter 69 The Golden Generation (1)

As soon as the sky was dawn, old Colin, who was still sleeping, heard the familiar sound. He was used to it and just turned over and continued to close his eyes.

For old Colin, this is his alarm clock.

This is the sound of Colin getting up early and practicing in the morning. In the past few years, such things have not been broken almost every day. For a period of time, as Colin's father, the old Colin, who thought Colin should give up his football dream and return to reality, tried to dissuade him, but in the end he could not resist his son.

This was not a bad thing after all. This was the reason why Old Colin convinced him at that time. But at that time, he definitely did not expect that his son would have the chance to receive an invitation from Manchester City.

You know, that's Manchester City. He thinks the most powerful team in England.

Old Colin believes that his son has no reason to refuse the invitation, so although he did not reply to Mr. Harrison immediately, he has no doubt that his son is about to go to Manchester City. As for Cambridge United, Old Colin will thank them for discovering and raising his son.

Colin understood his father's idea very well. Although the reason why he fell in love with football was not because of his father, he fell in love with Manchester United instead of Manchester City was completely the opposite effect of his father's "forced influence".

Close the door, Colin began to run morning along the route he was used to.

As early as when Colin was in the amateur league, he had a nickname, which was given to him by his teammates, called pocket watches. There are two meanings. One is because Colin is very punctual. Even in the amateur league with a loose concept of time, he has never been late. The other is because he describes his training attitude.

The word "amateur" means that many people do not regard playing football as a real career. The main force here is football enthusiasts from all walks of life, of course, there are also those who yearn to become formal professional players one day, but more of them are just treating football as a side job or even hobbies.

For Colin at that time, he never gave up, of course his goal was professional players. Therefore, even though he had been determined by many professionals in training camp that he could not play professional football, he still demanded himself by the standards of professional players. Obviously, this is a bit out of place in the amateur league, but Colin, who has always persevered, is still like a pointer in a pocket watch, and will never stop unless there is a fault.

Training is always boring, especially for several years of training, but Colin has long been used to it.

Just as Colin had just run through a three-way intersection along the familiar road, he was right in front of his left. A figure he was very familiar with unexpectedly entered his vision.

Colin immediately frowned.

This is really a narrow road for enemies.

"What a coincidence." Before Colin could speak, George, who had joined the same route, obviously also discovered Colin. He immediately said with a strange smile.

"Yes, what a coincidence." Colin replied lukewarmly.

If Colin is a pocket watch that is always on time and never stops, then George in front of him is an out-of-control alarm clock, and you never know when it will ring. Colin and George, who have been a teammate for a season, are already old acquaintances. Although the process of getting to know each other is not pleasant at all. A few years ago, in an amateur game, the two met for the first time on the field as opponents. In that game, George almost caused a group fight between the two sides. At that time, George passed all the defenders on Colin, including the goalkeeper in an attack. This is not a lack of skilled players on the football field, but the problem is that George, who passed everyone, did not score the ball, but instead stopped the ball on the goal line, and then deliberately used his head to the penalty area.

There is no doubt that this seems to be a humiliation on the other side. Although Colin finally won the game in this game, George's goal made everyone remember him, including Colin. Since then, the two met on the court from time to time. Although the victory was mostly on Colin's side, George still did his own way.

The two of them gradually developed from bad impressions to their dislikes of each other now. But in line with what they just said, the enemy was narrow, and the two were attracted by Tang Hua at the same time, and eventually they played for Cambridge Union while making a mistake. In line with that sentence, the person who knows them best will always be their enemies.

Even if Colin disliked George, he had to admit that this annoying, self-righteous guy had something called talent. Colin had no doubt that George "degenerate" to the amateur league was not because his talent was not favored by others, but because of his personality. This also made Colin feel even more disgusted with George.

The gift is given by God, because Colin, whose talent is blocked from professional football, has no right to accuse people who waste their talents. But this does not prevent him from being full of disgust towards such people.

"I didn't expect you to be so early, can't you sleep?" Colin had no intention of running with George, but George had no choice but to come to him. He was not so arrogant that he asked the other party to stay away from him, so he still laughed at him lukewarmly.

"Yes, I can't sleep. I encountered something." He didn't feel angry, but said with a smile.

"There are things that you can't sleep with? This is new."

"Of course it's fresh." George glanced at Colin and smiled, "You know, that's Manchester United."

Manchester United?

As soon as he heard this name, Colin's pace suddenly slowed down. George, who had been moving in line with him, immediately passed him. But then, Colin quickly followed.

"What's the meaning?"

Colin had actually vaguely guessed something, but he still couldn't help asking.

"Does I need to say more bluntly in the literal meaning? You are not such a stupid person, even though you are a little worse than me in football," said George.

This is George.

Colin finally understood why George, who usually keeps up with tit-for-tat, was so calm just now. It turns out that the other party really wanted to say this sentence. He is a Manchester United fan. Everyone in the Cambridge United knows this, just as everyone knows that George's favorite team is Manchester City, so George thinks his words are completely enough to stimulate Colin.

Thinking of this, Colin couldn't help laughing.

"Are you sick?" Looking at Colin who was laughing inexplicably, George was stunned at first, then looked at Colin with a puzzled look, and said seriously.

"You're fucking sick." Colin finally stopped his smile and replied angrily, but the curve of his mouth could not be concealed. "Actually, I have a similar message to tell you, do you seem to know?"

"News?" George was stunned again, and then a bad premonition arose in his heart.

"God is really unfair sometimes. He didn't give me what I want." Colin looked at George and asked irresponsibly, "God is really fair sometimes. He didn't give you what you want."

"The philosopher," George twitched, and then he seemed to think of something, "Did you... have you received the invitation? Which club?"

"What do you think?" Colin smiled strangely.

"Manchester City?" George widened his eyes. When he saw Colin not denying it, he immediately cursed, "What a fuck."

Looking at George's appearance, Collin felt very happy and his steps under his feet felt much lighter. However, George seemed to be deeply hit and slowed down.

The two ran for about ten minutes, one after another, and soon Colin noticed that George followed again.

"What? Have you figured it out?" Colin deliberately teased the other party, but he never thought that George, who had just wanted to put on his wings to fight against God, seemed to have really calmed down at this time.

"It's okay, it's all that's the case anyway. It doesn't matter." George said in a relaxed tone.

"Yes. It's just Manchester City."

"Tsk." George sneered, "Is Manchester United so great? But that's it."

"But that's the case?" Colin suddenly became furious, "I've made you go there?"

"Hehe." George smiled, "You really don't say it. I've been there, but I couldn't help but fight with someone at that time. Otherwise, now you can only watch my back on the TV screen."

Collin was speechless, just feeling that he almost didn't breathe.

Of course, he could suspect that George was just bragging and not drafting. If an ordinary person had such an experience, he would have been bragging in the amateur league. However, Colin knew very well that if it were George, he would not have, because the person in front of him never cared about other people's thoughts. For him, the only fun seemed to be to live a person he didn't like on the court that he didn't even know even his mother.

So, since George said that, he has been there, and if it were someone else, Colin might still doubt whether he has this ability, but George is definitely possible. After fighting with him for several years, Colin knew his ability a few years ago.

"Who?" Colin asked suddenly.

“What who?”

"The person who fought with you."

"...it's all about you," George said with a lip silence, but in Colin's opinion, it was obvious that George did not mention this, but because he didn't want to mention that person.

"This person..." Colin's heart moved. "Now in Manchester United's first team?"

"...It's all your business." George was a little angry and began to change the subject. "I said, since we received the invitation, we should say goodbye, no, it's better not to see each other again, right?"
