After Paris Saint-Germain Dropped Me, I Led England to Victory!

Marking this as "Read". I've only read up to chapter nine, and I can't contain my excitement and joy. I'll give it a five-star review first! The way the team dismissed the protagonist in this story is the most gentle and dignified I've ever seen with this kind of plot; it's a truly amicable parting.

It's very well written. The protagonist is very disciplined and has impeccable character, with no flaws—just my type. Chapters 77 and 78 were especially heartbreaking 😭. My personal interpretation of those chapters is that Wenger, a 69-year-old white-haired gentleman, has dedicated himself to the club for many years, especially after personally letting go of many players who could have…

It's rare to find a football novel that suits my taste. It has a system that helps it, but it's not the kind of novel where the protagonist mindlessly grinds stats and the opponent can prepare to kick off from the center circle the moment they get the ball. The only two points to criticize:

Beyond football, the author handled the protagonist's life and studies very well, creating natural and satisfying moments. The only downside was that the protagonist's first season was a bit too intense; perhaps a better approach would have been to consider Yamal's performance this season or Neymar's first and second seasons at Barcelona.

I rarely read male-oriented soccer novels, mainly because I feel that some of them have too much of a cheat code. The system comes along and the protagonist immediately learns certain skills without any practice, making them practically just costumes for a group of players. However, this novel strikes a perfect balance. Although it has a cheat code, the protagonist's hard work and dedication are also evident. I really like it! It was quite good in the beginning, but it got a bit weak later on.

This is a rare find. Having read 63 chapters, the author hasn't made any lewd jokes, which is unusual even in football novels or male-oriented fiction. It shows the author is a cultured person. The protagonist has a system, but he doesn't start at max level; it's more like a beginner's guide, and the protagonist genuinely works hard to improve.

It's very well written. I really like this kind of hard-working story, and there aren't any mindless plots, at least not from my current perspective. Even when they were removed from the Paris Saint-Germain team, it wasn't the kind of mindless mockery that led to their removal. It's pretty good.

The difference between fiction and reality lies in its dramatic element. The story unfolds more in the direction we want to see. In real life, Yan Yuan's European football career might have ended after being dismissed from Paris Saint-Germain. But it's precisely because of the drama that we witness his rebirth on the pitch.

A very good football novel, with both heartwarming moments and suspense, and the technical descriptions are also very detailed! Please keep up the good work and give the professor a brilliant and successful ending! As a long-time football fan, I was a fan of the Premier League from its very beginning, witnessing Arsenal's unbeaten season and the era when the two old men were vying for supremacy.

This is one of the best football novels I've read on Tomato. The author has a deep understanding of tactics, and the protagonist's personality is also very good. There are no flaws so far. It's an excellent football novel.
