My Goalkeeping System

What is worse than being the worst team in the world? For Dave Richards that was a very easy but heartbreaking question to answer, a goalkeeper who performed poorly between the sticks, he was still available as a first-choice goalkeeper because Unique FC didn't have any other goalkeeper. He was slow on his feet, couldn't jump properly and worst of all, he didn't know how to hold the ball properly. The only way that Unique FC was able to survive taking in a massive goal-fest sometimes was because of the extra effort they put in their defence. After a terrible match in which Dave wasn't able to make any saves and also made a lot of mistakes, he was seriously scolded by the managerial staff and almost received a beating from his angry teammates. He got home sad and also angry at all those who told him he looked like his grandfather and would therefore inherit his goalkeeping skills. He discovered a hidden door below his room and when he got down there the only thing he could see was a black box. He found the box to be quite familiar and when he opened it the last thing he saw was a bright white light when the light was gone he could see something in his field of vision. [ Welcome Dave ] [ You have activated the Goalkeeping system ] A female voice read out the messages. This is a story about how an ordinary man who didn't know his place between the sticks went from nothing to pro and beyond that.

<Well at least your stats are starting to look good now>

"Yeah," Dave said before picking up his water bottle which was lying on the floor.

His strength and dexterity had entered the twenties with the help of that quest and he still had two extra stat points to spare.

'I'm definitely going to put it in dexterity when the time comes.'

<You should know that although dexterity is your most important physical stat as a goalkeeper, doesn't mean that the other two aren't that important> Catherine said. <You need strength to be able to win balls in tough situations against tough players and you also need your endurance stats to be high for you to go through certain conditions without sustaining any injury>

'I get your point but dexterity will keep getting most of the stat points except in situations like this where the points are shared equally.'

<I'm not stopping you>

'Okay.'
