The Ball Is at Your Feet

At the age of eight, Li Duoduo (Cooper Li) entered the Haier End training base. As a boy of mixed Chinese and English descent, he cherished the dream of Arsenal and grew up sandwiched between two cultures and two identities. With outstanding talent, he jumped all the way through the grades. At the age of fifteen, he stood on the U18 North London Derby field, competing with Tottenham genius Karen Hayes and learning from each other. From the youth team's first appearance to his stunning debut in the Arsene Wenger era; Emery fell into trouble on the bench during the period, and went to Middlesbrough in the British Championship to face the rough and cruel professional football, losing his youthful spirit amidst mistakes, doubts and injuries. On one side is the olive branch thrown by English football, and on the other side is the concern for the homeland deep in the blood. As he reaches the top of the Premier League step by step, the multiple-choice question of "which flag to choose" in life is also placed in front of him. This is not only a midfielder's dream-chasing epic, but also a story of a mixed-race teenager searching for his roots.
