Without a lucrative long-term contract, who knows when you'll be able to book them, or if they'll even make time for you?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ma'el nodded again, indicating his understanding. It seemed like this needed to be prioritized.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He planned to mention it to Mendes. With his connections, finding an outstanding personal doctor shouldn't be difficult.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He just needed to prepare his wallet and get ready to hire the doctor at a high price.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>There's no other way; he needed to take care of his feathers, as his body was too important to him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Only with investment in this aspect could he maintain a long-term career and earn more money!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In the meantime, it was time for Mendes to find some social media operators for him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With his growing popularity, his Facebook fans had now surpassed 400,000.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He had also recently registered a new social media account on Instagram, planning to grow his new account alongside this new company's development.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He remembered the business of tens of thousands of dollars per advertisement post.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Preparing early in this area would likely help him become one of the first players to feast in the advertising endorsement market when it goes crazy!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"What about the rehabilitation equipment?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ma'el brought this up with Harry. While his personnel team was beginning to form, he needed to think comprehensively about the hardware.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In the future, more and more people would be around to serve him, and at that point, he'd need his own facilities and equipment.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It's not appropriate to always bring his physiotherapist to the club's gym, physiotherapy room, or rehabilitation room.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>What would the club's medical staff think?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>What about the other players?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Following the club's plan wouldn't meet his expectations for improving speed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Many stars with high personal standards have a complete set of similar equipment in their mansions, exclusively theirs, and often even more comprehensive and advanced than the club's.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He didn't think he was in a hurry. In three to four months, he'd be back in London. By then, he would certainly have his own villa.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>These pieces of equipment, the sooner they're prepared, the sooner he could benefit from their effects.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"The most important thing is the cryotherapy chamber.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Having been with the club for many years, Harry was definitely knowledgeable in this area. He patiently said, \"If you're determined to have a set of such equipment in your future home, this must be considered first.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Next would be an oxygen chamber, a sauna, a swimming pool, a gym—those are basic. Besides the basic equipment, you might need to purchase some specialized equipment based on your individual needs.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ma'el felt it would be costly just listening to this. He asked, \"How much would this whole set cost?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"The cheap ones are tens of thousands of pounds, the most expensive could be millions of pounds.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Harry shrugged and said, \"There are very few companies on the market with this technology, and monopoly pricing is like this.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ma'el looked up at the sky outside the gym. Oh well... he didn't want to get the whole set at once; he'd take his time.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>For now, he should focus on playing the league well and strive to earn more bonuses!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>......\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>On February 12, in the 30th round of the Championship, Sheffield United faced Millwall's challenge at Bramall Lane.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Round 30 can definitely be considered an important juncture. Whether in the 38-round Premier League or the 46-round Championship, the results at this time are highly valued.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After this round, all teams will roughly know where they stand this season and what specific goals they should strive for.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Sheffield United's overall goal was clear: to fight for the promotion spot this season!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But... whether aiming for the top two promotion zones or aiming for the playoff spots between third and sixth place are two entirely different strategies.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The former would require them to exert all their strength at this time and even deplete their combat power!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Abandoning the rotation of core players, risking injuries to main players, they'd gamble everything to achieve promotion in the 46-league campaign!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If they fail, the team could end up like last season under Kevin's leadership, collapsing entirely and finding it hard to maintain any competitiveness in the playoffs.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As for the latter, it's about advancing by retreating, ensuring the core players' physical condition while steadily progressing through the league.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Of course, this doesn't mean taking a step back directly from the promotion zone to preparing for the playoff games. No coach would foolishly manage a team like that.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It just means they wouldn't deplete the team's combat power, preparing slowly with a playoff mindset in mind.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Once the opportunity is ripe, they'd still switch to their strongest sprinting mode to qualify for automatic promotion or contest for it!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"The match begins! Millwall kicks off from the center circle. As a mid-upper team ranked seventh, they certainly have some ambition for a playoff spot!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Needless to say, both teams have a strong desire to win. In the last game, Sheffield United was blocked by Ipswich away from home and urgently needs a stabilizing home victory at this critical moment!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Steve Morrison! He received a yellow card, having tracked back all the way after losing the ball from the forward position! Upon physical contact, he knocked over Ma'el from behind, breaking up a counterattack opportunity!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"For his position as a forward, this yellow card is quite worthwhile!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"There are many Sheffield United players in the penalty area. If Ma'el successfully managed a crossing, the consequences could be unimaginable!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\".....\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Ma'el got the ball. He used his body to block Dunn and pulled the ball, preparing to forcibly turn. It was a feint!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"He charged in the opposite direction! The movement wasn't very smooth, but the speed was fast, and Dunn couldn't keep up with him!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"A direct through ball aimed at the middle! The ball speed was fast, and Robinson couldn't intercept it. The ball slipped past! Oh....! Evans followed with a slanting run. This was a classic direct pass-slash combination!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Wow.....! My God, how did he see that trajectory! I can confirm that Ma'el now has the ability to deliver ground threat balls!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Evans got into the penalty area, facing the goalkeeper, and shot!! The shot hit the goalkeeper, bounced back, and there's another attempt!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"The defender blocked his position, no way through now, he turned and passed back outside the penalty area, the ball speed was slow—it was a set-up! Ma'el followed up!!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"The Demon King descends! A world-class goal!! You still gotta watch him! This isn't a shot; this is a cannonball! A solid cannonball!! No goalkeeper would dare catch a ball like this!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\".....\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Is he going for it again?! He's very aggressive today, attempting a shot from this position, at least 40 yards from the goal!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Uhoh....!! Wonderful...Goal!!! Two to zero!!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Is he really not Gerrard? Not Adriano?! Quickly take off your mask and let us see your true face!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Look at the replay; the ball flew straight up and down, moving in a straight line! That represents incredible power! I'm sure it didn't deviate at all! It followed the intended path!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Goalkeeper Forder raised his hands. You can't blame him or his teammates for this shot. When someone delivers a shot like that, you can only sigh.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\".....\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Halftime. In the other match, Graham was substituted at halftime by Watford and no longer poses a scoring threat!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Ma'el! This monster from Korney! The pride of Aix! At the age of 17 years and 197 days, 24 Championship goals, he's topped the Championship scorer's table—a new record!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Who could imagine a player who's two and a half years short of 20?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"In his debut season, he simultaneously sits atop the secondary league's scoring and assists charts? Right now, he's truly the uncrowned king of the Championship!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Double chart number one! Absolutely unique!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\".....\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Before the second half began, Ma'el, who received the news, was very excited, feeling a long-standing knot in his heart finally resolved.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As he came onto the field, he walked behind Garrispeed and patted him on the back, reminding him, \"Don't forget you owe me 500 pounds. When will you pay up?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Tomorrow.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Garrispeed smiled, showing no signs of pain, jokingly said, \"If other club coaches knew that 500 pounds could buy the club a top scorer, their coaches would definitely go crazy.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Of course.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ma'el happily accepted the compliment, raised an eyebrow, and patted his back again, \"This must be the best deal you've ever done in your life.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Can I make another bet?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Garrispeed's face showed greed, raising an eyebrow, \"Let's bet on whether you can score a hat trick this match, 500 pounds.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"That's a bit stingy.\" Ma'el complained, reached out to high-five him, \"But I'll take it.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>```\u003C\u002Fp>",1483,"2026-06-03T06:44:03.643Z","2026-06-03T06:44:07.339Z",1,"novelbin.me","5ba518a330c772f7f5ffddf68558d02a65910d67c3e2b7da11e27345110638e5","from-arsenal-to-the-ball-god-chapter-99","from-arsenal-to-the-ball-god-chapter-97",391,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Ffrom-arsenal-to-the-ball-god-cover.jpg"]
