Full synopsis:
Thanks for the question! I’m in the Dutch second division. How do I save myself?
Yu Wang thought his golden finger would be a System like [King of the Pitch], [Football Prodigy], or [Master of the Back Line].
Who could have guessed he’d get an old-timer comeback System instead!
[In 2034, after you’ve been retired for years, you watch 27-year-old kid Lamine Yamal, three years younger than you, weave through the opposition like nobody can stop him at the World Cup in Saudi Arabia. At that moment, you regret everything.]
[You regret wasting your time and your youth.]
[If you could turn back time, you swear you’d live your life properly all over again! But you know time can’t be turned back!]
[A saying flashes through your mind: The best time to plant a tree was ten years ago. The second-best time is now!]
[So you resolve to make a comeback!]
[Old-Timer Comeback Gift Pack being delivered...]
What? An old-timer comeback?
This isn’t some made-up story about a retired player returning to the field. I’m only eighteen, okay?!
But after receiving the beginner’s reward, Yu Wang immediately changed his tune.
Who says this System is useless? This System is amazing!
A very familiar and comfortable rhythm, five stars, keep it up! 😏 Because this story is set relatively late, around the time Teng Hai took over at Manchester City, some seemingly outrageous aspects of the contracts and event handling are actually quite normal. If you think it's outrageous, think about the development contract Mbappe had at 13, and think about Yamal's release clause 😏😏😏
The book is good, and the pacing is comfortable, but I just don't have a good impression of Arsenal as a team, and there are a few minor flaws. I would definitely recommend it anyway, and I wish the author continued success in writing! 👍 (I'm only deducting one star because I personally don't have a good impression of Arsenal)
I personally quite like it.
The narrative flows smoothly, it's great! Didn't the author read any other works by their peers before writing this? The trial card pack was instantly canceled; if I hadn't read some decent articles beforehand, I would have just speedrunned through the beginning with the trial card. 🤦
Although the protagonist levels up too quickly, it cannot overshadow the author's exceptional understanding of football and control over the main storyline.
It's well-written; it doesn't overshadow the main character, nor is it overly exaggerated.
