Hi, I'm Bradley Noah Anthony Oxlade-Chamberlain, the 17 year old  and eldest son of Alexander Mark David Oxlade-Chamberlain and Perrie Louise Oxlade-Chamberlain (nee. Edwards). I have 3 younger brothers named Christian Matthias Hunter Oxlade-Chamberlain who is 14, Myles Robert Daniel Oxlade-Chamberlain who is 9 and Dylan Benjamin Alexander Oxlade-Chamberlain who's 7, along with my baby sister named Brianna Hailee Julia Oxlade-Chamberlain who's 4.

Bradley's POV: I am currently signed to Liverpool's youth academy and today I have the opportunity to impress Mr. Jurgen Klopp to become the first father and son to play at the same time.
"Well, son. This is it, 9 years in the academy for this one moment, impress Jurgen Klopp and you are on your way to the first team." Mr. Matthew Haversack, who's the 'manager' for the Youth Academy players. "How are you feeling?"
"Honestly, Coach. I'm really nervous, my performance today could change my future at this club." I tell him, tying my football boots up. "This can go either one or the other way."

Not only is the Head Coach watching today, but so is most of my family from my parents to my siblings to my grandparents and wow is it stressful? Let's just go out there and make them proud...

Alex's POV: The opposition players head out, it's the Aston Villa youth academy versus the Liverpool youth academy.
"Where's Bradley, daddy?" My daughter inquires, looking around the stadium. I point him out, wearing the shirt with "Oxlade-Chamberlain 15" on it. She happily cheers when she sees him.
"Come on, lad!" I whisper as they begin to shake hands with the opposition.

Bradley's POV: I look into the crowd and see my family, luckily they all got seats together so I can identify them easier. Then I look over at Coach Haversack and he gives me an encouraging smile, then I glance at my new potential coach and I've got this in the bag.

19'
It's a freekick and I'm in the box, it's whipped in but it hits the crossbar!
32'
I gain possession of the ball and whip it towards goal but it's saved, the crowd almost on their feet but then all are dissapointed.
43'
I once again have possession of the ball, but tackled fairly but the audience doesn't think so

45' It's 0-0

52'
The opposition score with a beautiful header from their midfielder. 0-1!
71' I gain possession of the ball and roughly slid over in the box and the offender is shown a yellow card. I take the penalty and it's a goal right in the top corner! I run over to the side and my entire family is celebrating wildly. 1-1!

87'
My teammate crosses into the box and I somehow perform a flawless overhead kick that makes the crowd scream with cheers. 2-1!

89' I gain possession of the ball, I am sprinting as fast as I can but the goalkeeper and I collide and I hit the floor quite hard. I am completely unconscious and have to be taken off on a stretcher

I awake 4 days later in the hospital, I see my parents sitting there with Coach Haversack.
"Hey, he's awake!" Coach announces and I smile at them. "We have some brilliant news to tell you!"
"What?" I reply, excitedly and then Jurgen Klopp walks into the room and presents me with a contract.
"Welcome to the team, son. You performed amazingly at that match and now you're on the first team." He tells me with a massive smile on his face, handing me a pen.

I sign the contract and hand it back to him.
"Come to the stadium tommorow and it's training time." He informs me before walking out. "Congratulations again..."

I look over at my parents and rhey are both ecstatic with my dad being brought to tears.
"I am so damn proud of you, lad." My dad tells me, wiping his eyes. "I never thought I'd one day be sharing the pitch with one of my children but here we are."

The next day at Anfield: We arrive at the stadium and I am completely in shock.
"Welcome to your new club, son." Dad tells me, happily patting my back. "This is where you'll hopefully be staying for the next 5 years." We walk up to the doors and enter, looking around. I did it!

At training: I've been given the number 16 shirt with "Oxlade-Chamberlain Jr" somehow squeezed on the back.
"Alright, everyone. We have a brand new striker joining us today, making the first ever father and son to play together. We have Bradley Oxlade-Chamberlain or to refer to him as Oxlade-Chamberlain Jr, as you all know we have Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain whom is his father." Jurgen Klopp announces, clasping his hands together. "Onto other things, this week is a match against Brentford in the Premier League and I have decided to give our newest recruit a chance of playing a match, so we will have Oxlade-Chamberlain Jr up front with Manè and Salah, in the midfield we have Oxlade-Chamberlain, Henderson and Thiago, in defence we have Alexander-Arnold, Robertson, Van Djik and Gomez and finally Allison between the posts." I smile widely as my name is called out.
"So, onto training! Today is shooting drills!" Jurgen announces and we do training which I do surprisingly well at.

On Saturday: "Tonight, we have Liverpool taking on Brentford. Now tonight is a very special night for one young man. Ladies and Gentlemen, tonight we have the first ever father and son duo playing on the same time with Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain and his 17 year old son Bradley Oxlade-Chamberlain Jr. We cannot wait to see these two in action tonight!" Is what the announcers tell the audience as we walk onto the pitch with everyone singing 'You'll Never Walk Alone'. Let's get my first team debut on with!

81' I gain possession and I can just feel my heart beating out of my chest. I sprint towards goal just ahead of the defence when I get slide tackled from behind in the box! It's a penalty once again!
My dad helps me up and Salah hands me the ball.
"You got this, son. Make us proud." Mo encourages me, I turn to my dad and he tells me "Just do your best. The family's watching at home"

I place the ball on the spot, just waiting for that whistle to sound. The whistle blows and I run up to the ball and smash it past the goalkeeper. GOAL!!!!!!! I sprint off, not believing what just happened. I have just scored on my Premier League debut! Holy shit!

"That's my boy!" Dad yells, hugging me from behind. "So bloody proud of you!"

And that's the story I'll be telling the future generations all about, happiest day of my entire life.
