Thirty Years of Reading
1. I've been reading for a long time and have pretty discerning tastes. 2. To me, a good book has fluent prose (the bare minimum), a rich vocabulary, a style that fits its world (no jarring genre mashups), consistent logic, and well-rounded characters, without pointless filler. Once it meets these basic requirements, telling a good story makes it a great book. 3. I'm an avid reader who likes to let books build up before reading, so I don't recommend short books. 4. Ratings are based on personal
King of the Green: Passionate Football Stories ④: Players
The Champions League final is over! Manchester City faced Inter Milan, with the score ending at 1–0.

Female readers, please note: this is a harem novel, so please leave now.
I read it a long time ago and forgot why I gave up the book. I recently looked it up and found out that it was because the protagonist or the author had a problem with his outlook on life. If you want to write about football, write about football well. You have to write about emotional scenes that are beyond your reach. The writing is disgusting.
This is rubbish. The moment I see this kind of glib-tongued male lead, I don't want to watch anymore. Sure, being glib can make you successful, but I don't like this kind of character.
I saw a book written about the Chinese team giving up directly 😡
The entire description of the protagonist—going to bars, drinking, getting hungovers, chasing girls, and smoking—does that mean he can become a superstar? Ha!
I'm speechless. This protagonist smokes, drinks, plays football, and indulges in a terrible diet. Does he even understand football? Is playing football in Europe that easy? And what about the protagonist's views on love and values? Did the author imagine himself as the protagonist? It's just wild speculation. I'm dropping this story immediately.
To be honest, the protagonist's personality is the biggest flaw in the book. The writing style is fine, but the character's worldview is problematic. First, he manages to portray his promiscuous, womanizing behavior as devoted love; second, he believes that power allows one to do whatever one wants; third, he believes public figures don't need to consider social impact.
Why go to Inter Milan instead of Arsenal? I don't have many teams I dislike, but Barcelona, Arsenal, and Juventus are the three I hate the most. One is a professional match-fixer, another is a team with powerful connections, and although Arsenal doesn't rely on referees or have powerful connections, Arsenal lacks backbone.
Writing about a national team that can advance and win the championship... Well, those weaklings... Even with a protagonist, it's not enough. Football is a team sport; one god carrying ten noobs won't work.
The first football novel I ever read 🙂
