The Golden Age of Football

Since the author is writing a football novel set in the 1990s, why not include the Chinese national football team? Some of the players from that era were quite skilled.

At that time, Serie A must have had a serious problem with discrimination against people of Asian descent, unlike the Bundesliga at its start, which at least had Cha Bum-kun.

The 1990s were indeed the golden age of football. My love for football began with AC Milan during that era. Baresi, Maldini, Costacurta, the Dutch trio, Donadoni, Tassotti—that was a true dream team, and Serie A was a veritable mini-World Cup. Unfortunately, with commercialization and the decline of Serie A, football has lost its original purity.

The author is at least conscientious enough to tell me from the beginning that this is a "banana" (a person who is Westernized by nature), although the beginning is discouraging, I still have to praise the author's conscience.

Starting in '90? They should give the protagonist an invincible shield! Tackling from behind wasn't banned until '94, and it was banned from the ball in '98. If you were any weaker in '90, you'd be crippled by a single tackle!

Those willing to watch 90s films are mostly older fans, so they should have some patience. But what kind of writing is this?! The character's body was weakened by time travel, his goal-scoring instinct became mystical, and he had to wait for others to make mistakes. Sigh, quite disappointing.

After reading a few chapters, the plot is too stiff and ridiculously made up.

This book isn't that interesting 😑

How many updates a day? I quite enjoy writing about that era, so I hope for more updates.

You could write more about the seasons, and create a football evergreen.
