"Ooh!"
A sharp voice rang out from the stadium's studio. The Sky Sports commentator stood up, clutching his head, his emotions instantly drawn into the stadium, "Opening goal! A world-class Long Shot! From Number 31 Maël!
"I must re-introduce this player from Arsenal. He completed a brace of assists in his debut. This is only the second professional league match of his career, and unexpectedly, he has another goal!
"Four rounds into the EFL Championship, two appearances, one goal and two assists! You can't help but wonder how high he can go in the future! Sheffield United takes the lead at home. Maël scores Gareth Speed's first goal since taking office. This is a moment to be remembered!"
As he spoke, he turned his gaze to the coach's seat on the sidelines, wanting to see Gareth Speed's reaction.
Unexpectedly, the young coach had already clenched his fists and rushed to the sideline, trembling and celebrating to the sky.
Indeed, how delightful it is for the team to take the lead at the start of his first game in charge.
The balance of victory now leans towards him, and he is very likely to achieve a beautiful start!
What's more, he is starting his coaching career with such a wonderful world-class goal!
The stadium director also knew what to do at this time, switching the camera to Gareth Speed on the sidelines. He opened his mouth wide, roaring, cheering, and venting the pressure of recent times, "Yeah!"
Soon, his direct line of assistant coaches rushed up and jumped on his back, bending him over.
The red tie hung on his chest, adding a bit of festive feeling to their celebration team. This is definitely a memorable moment.
"What did I say! What did I say!"
Among the celebrating crowd, the original Chief Scout Joelson was the most excited. After Gareth Speed took office, he naturally entered the coaching staff and became an assistant coach.
"He's simply the King of Long Shots!"
Joelson smiled proudly, with a kind of joy and excitement that his views had been confirmed, a complete Wang Yousheng incarnate.
"You deserve the credit."
Gareth Speed hammered his shoulders a few times, saying the words he wanted to hear most, not as a compliment, but as a heartfelt affirmation.
After celebrating, he came to the sidelines, looking at the young man celebrating in the corner flag area, with a look of envy.
Was he seeing his younger self? No. More than that, he saw a rising star, beginning to write his own story in the EFL Championship, a league that has written countless inspirational epics.
"Even if it's not instant fame, it's a promising future."
Gareth Speed smiled, thinking that if he continues to develop well, there will be an even bigger stage waiting for him.
...
Colney Training Base, youth team meeting room.
The heatwave of Maël's goal quickly spread here. Listening to the commentator's passionate roar and watching Maël sliding out on his knees, the players and coaching staff all covered their foreheads.
"Oh my god! The first goal is here!"
"F*ck. World-class goal!"
"Unbelievably easy, he seemed divinely helped in that position, this goal was scored so beautifully!"
The players clenched their fists tightly, their bodies trembling. This trembling became more intense as they understood what this goal meant.
It is conceivable that Maël will quickly secure his place as a starter for Sheffield United and make a name for himself in the EFL Championship.
By the end of the season, he may score more than 5 goals and assist more than 5 goals, creating 10+ goals.
When he returns to Arsenal next season, he will undoubtedly enter the first team and be valued by Wenger, gradually competing for a starting opportunity.
For him, anything is really possible! "Look, look!"
Head coach Hans sat at the front, radiant and full of pride: "I said long ago that only you know yourself best, understand your shortcomings, know what you should strengthen, and how to train.
"Without those countless days and nights of hard work, Maël would never have become the Maël he is today, and scoring in the EFL Championship would be a pipe dream.
"Gilbert is the same. I often talk to him. He told me about his recent situation. After going to the team, he trained with Maël and improved rapidly! "The best role model is right in front of you. I hope you don't waste time and learn from their strengths!"
Hans actually knew very well that people like Maël, who suddenly had an epiphany, and Gilbert, who had talent and then worked hard to soar, were just outliers.
But he still hoped that the players on his team could maintain hope for the future, at least not lose their fighting spirit.
"How much is the goal bonus?" Another little money-lover asked, as if there were always players curious about this.
"2500 Pounds."
Hans looked at him and smiled: "They also have clauses for salary increases based on the number of appearances. After this goal, Maël should easily complete the salary increase in the future."
Speaking of which, he remembered the pair of shoes he had lent to Maël.
Everything happened so fast. From that young man wearing worn-out shoes to today's protagonist on the EFL Championship stage, Maël only took a very short time.
Wait, at this rate, wouldn't his shoes really become a collector's item in the future?
Hans's eyes narrowed, and he kept this matter in mind.
France, Aix.
"Goal!!"
The long sound of the French commentator rang from the TV. Uncle Clermont was the first to stand up from the sofa, his eyes widened as he raised his arms. "Beautiful! Beautiful! Goal! Goal!!"
At this time, the others turned their heads and slowly reacted.
"Is it Maël?"
Auntie raised her eyebrows, surprised. She immediately got up and clapped her hands heavily. "This is the first time, remember this day."
She didn't understand what this goal represented, but she knew that her nephew was a winger... or a forward. The forward's job is to score goals, and her nephew completed his job well.
In her opinion, this was already very good.
The worry of seeing her nephew not playing a few days ago disappeared at this moment, and the family celebrated again, even more enthusiastically than last time.
"Ava!"
Clermont excitedly picked up Ava, swung her around twice, and said with a smile, "How about we go to England to watch your brother's game in a week or two?"
"Go to England?"
Surprise appeared in Ava's big eyes, and she clapped her little hands and said, "Okay, okay, I want my brother to take me to England to eat delicious English food!"
"All you know is eating."
Auntie muttered, then looked at her husband, a little worried: "The second and third children are still in school, going at this time will definitely have an impact, and..."
Obviously, her biggest concern was not the studies of the second and third children, but those things she didn't say at the end.
"Maël is all alone over there, besides the people from the club, it's still the people from the club. Life is too monotonous."
Clermont put Ava down and replied, "He called yesterday and invited us to come over, telling us not to worry about money."
"Isn't this not so good..." Auntie was a little embarrassed, and her words seemed hesitant.
"Don't be so coy. Your nephew took the initiative to invite us, so let's go and take advantage of it and go abroad."
Clermont shook his head, glanced at her, and raised his chin. "You don't know how much your nephew is making now. Just that kick just now might have earned back our round-trip commuting expenses."
Auntie rolled her eyes at him, as if to say, what are you showing off to me for?
