Novels That Are Still Readable
I've been reading novels for over twenty years, and there aren't many I can still enjoy these days. Five stars means a must-read! Four stars means worth reading! Three stars means take it or leave it! Two stars means it's basically unreadable! As for one star? No such thing!

I couldn't hold back when they started praising Ronaldo at the beginning.
Ronaldo only played well for two years in '98 and '99, barely reaching the level of a superstar. Can you stop hyping up that "pendulum dribble"? You're going to brag about beating a goalkeeper for a lifetime? Modern top-class center-backs who can be beaten by that move head-on can retire. Do you really think they can't defend against a pendulum dribble?
Seeing Luo Ge makes me want to give up. It doesn't align with domestic values either: rape, surrogacy, infidelity, five children with three mothers. A CCTV-certified diving master, he posts photos of himself when he wins, and his team when he loses. He just throws away the captain's armband like that.
I lost interest in reading the first two chapters, so the author didn't change them.
The password is that the first two chapters emphasize the author's love for football, but he can't even juggle the ball much. The comments section said it was too harsh, and the author admitted to suppressing the protagonist, but he just won't change it. He's so stubborn. I'm speechless. Self-pity every day
I hope that the national team is either properly written about, or not written about at all. If the national team isn't written about, then the domestic fans shouldn't be included either, because it seems a bit incongruous. Many football novels nowadays portray the protagonist as an overseas Chinese, with various domestic fans fawning over them, which is really unpleasant.
The story was going well until the sixteen-year-old protagonist insisted on having a flirtatious relationship with a nutritionist ten years his senior. The protagonist is only sixteen, and the nutritionist is just a team member. The author even added some unnecessary "seasoning"—was the author in a hurry? It really affected the reading experience. Haha, I wonder what happens next; I'm almost ready to drop it.
They ran away.
I've always emphasized my love for football, I've always emphasized that... I believe football needs three things. 1. Strong body 2. Excellent talent 3. High self-confidence After reading the first three chapters, I'm speechless. If the protagonist loves football, firstly, his physique is terrible, indicating he hasn't trained much; secondly, he's extremely insecure and doubts himself.
That's great!
At first, I thought it would be boring for someone without talent to work hard. After reading a few chapters, I realized it's a bit of an overpowered character's growth, but it's very reasonable. There are no heavy hitters, and it turns out that physical attributes are lacking. If physical attributes are lacking, everything else is nonsense.
The opening plot was really bad. You could tell the protagonist was a pure football enthusiast, 15 years old, and he kept talking about working hard, but the level he was portrayed to be about what he learned in PE class was. Then there was the fact that his family was poor, and his father was willing to spend the money he had saved for three years just so that the protagonist could play in a…
Even those who write about football need to understand the basics. Some aspects of football can be practiced, but some technical talents simply cannot be demonstrated in a match through practice alone. Why don't we see the signature moves of superstars like Ronaldo's high-speed turn to dribble past opponents, Ronaldinho's calf-turn, Kaká's central sprint, and Iniesta's croquet-like moves?
How can a human foot possibly outrun a Buddha's foot...? Wishing all the likes of Daniel Wu great luck in the upcoming World Cup!
