The Unconventional Center Forward

To be fair, this book is probably the best-written football novel on Qidian.

Is this an entertainment article or a sports article?

Good start. If you maintain this level of quality in the future, it'll be a sure thing. I've saved this.

Something feels off. Has something happened?

Regarding subscriptions, my personal thoughts are that most people reading sports novels on Qidian are probably long-time readers, and since it's mostly set in fictional worlds, the sense of immersion isn't very strong.

The Chinese national football team is third; my heart can't take it. This is outrageous!

It seems like there are fewer and fewer people writing about football these days... I hope this author will carry the torch.

Is this supposed to be about the entertainment industry? I've read over 70 chapters, and more than half of it is about entertainment unrelated to football. It's basically just a football-themed story.

To be honest, it's quite enjoyable to read, but the football world has been messed up! Football novels can't be divorced from reality, otherwise there's no sense of immersion. Changing names makes things chaotic because even though it's only changing one character, those people actually existed, so it gets confusing. There's also the timeline being thrown in, the football world isn't segmented, and there's no sense of continuity. The writing is pleasant, but the content is awkward.

You have to connect football novels to reality; otherwise, they feel completely unrelated.
