Coste heard Fly's words, nodded, and reminded him:
"Indeed, your identity is quite sensitive. You should consult with your mother, Ms. Annie, when choosing a national team."
"However, based on my experience, there shouldn't be a big problem for you to play for England."
Coste knew his son-in-law's thoughts.
He also knew very well that the United States was destined not to produce a strong national football team.
Because no one values it!
American sports are the most commercialized events in the world.
Whether it's the NFL, MLB, or NBA.
Their commercial market value is higher than that of the Premier League.
The Premier League is indeed the most commercially successful football League in the world.
But compared to these in the United States, it's still a bit lacking.
Fly remembered seeing rankings of sports club market values in his previous life.
The highest ones were basically NFL clubs.
Followed by the NBA, only Real Madrid and Manchester United among football clubs made it into the world's top twenty.
Although many Chinese people ridiculed this as the Americans enclosing themselves in their own little world.
It is undeniable that in the field of commercializing sports events, the United States is far ahead of other countries.
On the land of the United States, these already mature commercialized events have taken away almost all of the attention of the vast majority of Americans.
It can be said that there is no cake left for football.
And football, which cannot get enough cake, naturally cannot attract the attention of the vast majority of Americans.
It is also difficult for enough football talents to embark on the path of professional football.
There are already few Americans who embark on the path of professional football, and after careful selection, there are even fewer who can become world-class players.
It can even be said that there are none!
With such a group of teammates, it is impossible for Fly to challenge for the World Cup.
So if he wants to become the GOAT of football, his primary prerequisite is to join the England National Team.
Although the England National Team has the reputation of the "Three Lions Army" and the "European China Team".
They are invincible in crushing weaker teams during friendly matches and qualifiers, but they start to panic in major tournaments.
But it is undeniable that England has a very rich reserve of players!
At least there are not a few players who can become world-class players!
It's just that they have always lacked a strong core figure to unite the scattered English players.
Fly has absolute confidence in becoming this core figure.
He is also confident in turning the Three Lions Army into a true Three Lions Army.
But the premise is that he can successfully join the England National Team.
Although he has dual British and American nationality, legally speaking, playing for the England football team is irreproachable.
However, Fly must consider political factors.
Who told him his surname was Adams?
Since he and his family have gained enough benefits because of this surname.
Then the corresponding obligations are also something Fly needs to bear.
Fly has always been mentally prepared for this.
There is no such good thing in the world where you only take benefits and pay no price.
Even if there is, Fly doesn't think it would be his turn.
So he must communicate clearly with his mother, including his father.
Only when everything is clear can he feel at ease.
After dinner at Taylor's house.
Fly and Taylor entered their shared room.
During this time, Fly had already called his mother.
According to his mother, he doesn't need to worry and can choose according to his own wishes.
But Fly was worried that his mother said this on purpose to fulfill his football career.
So, not reassured, he called Dad Li again.
Unexpectedly, Dad Li immediately gave Fly a mocking lecture reserved for a father to his son:
"You little brat, you really think you're something, don't you?"
"You need to understand one thing, the profession you are engaged in is just a sport."
"The strength of a sport cannot bring any substantial impact to a country."
"Your Mom and I are people who are going to do great things. To put it bluntly, sports are not worthy of our attention."
"Go and pursue your dreams properly, don't worry about things that haven't happened."
"Don't worry, you little brat won't bring any trouble to your Mom and Dad. Go boldly and chase your dreams!"
After being mocked by his Dad, Fly instantly lost his composure.
However, he also heard their attitude from his Dad's words, as well as the answer he had been seeking during this time.
He can play for the England National Team without any worries and pursue that golden spherical trophy.
Feeling her boyfriend's joyful mood, Taylor, who was beside him, placed her hand on Fly's hand and gently stroked it.
Just as Fly thought his Dad was about to hang up, Dad Li said at the end:
"Son, you did very well this time. Although it was unnecessary, at least it shows you are very filial and you are worthy of your mother's kindness in giving birth to you."
"Go for it, charge forward. Mom and Dad will always support you from behind."
As soon as the words fell, Dad Li hung up the phone, not giving Fly a chance to reply.
Shaking his head helplessly, Fly thought to himself, "Really, that old man is so rushed even when he wants to express his feelings. What's so embarrassing about it?"
Regarding the super-rich big shot worth hundreds of billions who didn't dare to express fatherly love to his son, Fly said he would laugh at this person ten thousand times!
He would laugh every time he thought of it!
Taylor was also amused by her father-in-law's 'embarrassment'.
However, when she saw Fly couldn't hold back his laughter, she still hit him:
"Dad is one of the wealthiest people in the world after all. He rarely shows genuine emotion, whether dealing with subordinates or business partners."
"It's rare for him to show genuine emotion towards you, and you're still laughing at him. That's really not right!"
Looking at Taylor, who was also trying to hold back her laughter but pretending to be serious while criticizing him, Fly was speechless:
"Honey, can you not shrug your shoulders so obviously? You really look like an idiot like this."
As soon as she was told this, Taylor immediately pounced on him, 'baring her fangs and brandishing her claws'.
Fly fell back with the momentum, and then rolled into a ball with Taylor.
Their clothes were then scattered everywhere.
Soon, scenes inappropriate for children appeared in Taylor's boudoir....
