Chapter 139 Team Errors

The rays from the sun shone brightly into the room and just a few seconds after the rays got to his face, Dave slowly opened his eyes.

He turned his gaze to Emma who had her arms wrapped around him, he could feel the tingling feeling of her breathing against his neck as she was still fast asleep.

<Good morning, Dave>

'Good morning, Catherine.'

<I'm guessing you're not going to do any of your morning exercises today>

'Uh...maybe.'

He turned his gaze to the ceiling before turning it back to Emma who was still sleeping peacefully in his arms.

It didn't take long before she made a little movement and slowly opened her eyes.

"Dave." She said, blinking her eyes a couple of times. "Good morning." She said with a bright smile on her face.

"Good morning," Dave said. "Hope you slept well?"

"I did, you?"

"I'll always sleep well with you by my side." He said before kissing her. "Season's over which means no training today and that means we can finally sleep in today."

"Are you sure you're not forgetting something?" She asked.

"No, I don't think so." He said, shaking his head.

"Really?"

"Yeah."

"You dumb head, you have to be at Lospeno today with Clark!" She said before giving him a heavy smack on the head.

"Awww." He winced before quickly pressing his hand against the area of impact.

"He said you were supposed to be there before noon so, get up." She said before quickly pulling him up from the bed.

"Hey, what's with the aggressiveness today?" Dave said with a shocked expression on his face.

'How come you didn't remind me about the meeting today, Catherine?'

<No, you deserve this>

"You can't go about forgetting important things like this," Emma said before slowly stepping down from the bed while Dave was still sitting on the bed with a confused expression on his face. "And besides I have to go to work today so there's no time to sleep in."

"Oh, yeah, I forgot about that." The goalkeeper said, scratching the back of his bed.

Emma let out a sigh before turning her gaze to him.

"You know you're not supposed to be sitting there, come on you have to get to Lospeno before noon." She said before grabbing him by his shirt and pulling him down from the bed.

"What did I do to deserve this morning?" He muttered with his face flat on the floor.

<You proposed>

"Okay, fine, I'll go get ready." The goalkeeper said before getting up from the floor.

"Good, I'll have everything you'll need ready before you're done." She said, walking toward the door. "But first, I have to call a certain group of people and tell them about what happened last night." She added with a little giggle before leaving the room.

"I guess I won't be doing any morning exercise today," Dave muttered after she left the room.

<That's not a problem>

Emma also had to leave for work early so she had to do everything she had to quickly.

Dave was surprised when he finished brushing his teeth in the bathroom and saw her standing there with her towel tied around her body.

"What the heck have you been doing all this time, you're still brushing your teeth?" She said with a furious look on her face.

"Wait, you're done?" Dave said with a stunned look on her face.

"Of course, I'm done. What do you think I went downstairs to do, play?" She said, walking closer to him.

She stared at him with a furious expression on her face but it didn't take long before the expression died down and she let out a deep sigh.

"You have a lot of time left anyway, let's just share the bath." She said,

"Okay, that will be nice," Dave said with a smile on his face.

After getting ready together, the two made their way downstairs.

Emma was putting on a pink dress with little black nets to make up for the short sleeves while Dave was putting on a casual red shirt with black jeans and black sneakers.

After having their breakfast, the two made their way outside and now it was time for them to say goodbye and head out.

"I'll see you in the next ten or twelve hours depending on how work is going to be today." She said before leaning closer to kiss him.

After that, she turned and began to make her way out of the area.

"I'll miss you!" She said before she disappeared from the area.

"I'll miss you too," Dave muttered.

It didn't take long before the goalkeeper got to the airport and now he was on his way to Lospeno.

He was sitting on his phone going through everything yesterday's last fixtures had created.

'Supreme United, champions of Bilbeth once again.' He subconsciously read the title of an article that had a picture of Supreme United lifting the trophy with their black jersey which had red stripes.

'Do you think Unique FC can be among the title contenders next season?'

<Are you asking me or you're still reading the title of articles?>

'Article.'

<Oh>

'But I would still like to hear your opinion on it.'

<Do you want my honest opinion or do you want me to be nice?>

'Honest opinion.' Dave replied.

<Okay, you asked for it, Unique FC cannot be among the title contenders if you guys are going to continue playing the way you have been doing although I'm pretty sure you will do better than you did this season next season but you can't be among the title contenders. The team attack looks slow and you guys seem to lack attacking options all the time, Mateo is the only one who tries to speed up the attack with his dribbling and speed, no deadly that can cause havoc to teams although I think Fredinho is still young and will come around, Merino is good but he needs to work more on his finishing and now let's move to midfield.

<Starting from the middle, Ferran is a good creator with speed and wit but if his finishing hadn't been above average, you guys would have easily won a lot of matches you struggled in>

'Yeah, he hits the crossbar a lot.'

<Minino is good, a very good box-to-box midfielder, he makes nice passes and interceptions and is one of the reasons why your team's midfield controls the game most of the time but he makes a lot of silly mistakes, decisiveness is his problem, Edward is also good alongside Ferran and Minino but he has a lot of work to do in his stamina and pace, now the defense including the goalkeeper.

<There are two people who I admire most in your defense and that is Adolf and Roland, I'm going to start with the youngster, the way he easily cuts through the middle and creates something beautiful for the team is unmatched, he's fast, very decisive and isn't afraid to take anybody, he makes a few defensive errors from time to time but he's still young and will get better with experience, I just Norman doesn't go back and start starting Jonas ahead of him next season.

<The second defender I admire is Adolf, it's nice how the fastest defender after Roland is a center back, his fighting spirit is very wonderful, that's what makes him a great team leader, he makes a few mistakes sometimes but to be honest he's saved more mistakes than he has created, Aima is good but he leaves too much space behind him when defending, that's his problem and Norman, to be honest, I haven't spotted any defensive errors from him so far, he does his job well, the interceptions, clearances, and tackles but I think the team will be better if he tried to be a bit offensive like Jonas>

'Is that all?'

<I haven't said anything about you yet, have I?>

'Oh, yeah.'
