Chapter 260 Courtesy Attendance
"I'm glad he called me the strongest midfielder ever, but I've never been a midfielder in the traditional sense. But to be honest, I never thought a Chinese player could achieve what he is now. He... Great job."

Lu Feng's speech at the post-match press conference was quickly placed in front of another party involved.

Maybe because he had a good time in nightclubs in the United States during the summer vacation, Ozil was also in a good mood, and he was able to maintain a decent answer when answering.

In this regard, the difference between Arsenal and Liverpool, Wenger and Klopp is very obvious.

Also participated in the European Cup, Liverpool's Henderson, Lallana, Milner, Sturridge, Mignolet, Joao Mario and other international players before participating in the International Champions Cup on July 7 All returned to their positions, and Arsenal's Koscielny, Ozil, Giroud and other players did not end their respective holidays until August 22th.

Of course, France played in the final and Germany in the semi-finals, but João Mario also played the heart of Portugal's midfield for 120 minutes in the final!

Compared with the Jagged Red Army under Klopp, the Arsenal managed by Wenger is somewhat too weak. Big-name players like Sanchez and Ozil have too much right to speak, which is bound to affect the balance of the dressing room.

On the other hand, in Liverpool’s locker room, although there are superstars like Lu Feng, he is the most important factor in the acquisition of the team by Chinese capital, and his salary is far higher than that of other teammates. Perhaps in the near future, Lu Feng’s words in the locker room Power and influence will become a unique existence, but at present, Klopp's authority as a head coach is still unshakable.

For example... Lu Feng had to ask Klopp for leave if he wanted to attend the UEFA ceremony.

Fortunately, their opponent in the next round is the weak Burnley, and the strong Liverpool doesn't need Lu Feng at all! -
"Sturridge is back from injury, and all Liverpool players are online!"

"Great journey! Mignolet ushered in the 200th Premier League game!"

"Burnley failed to score a goal in 4 Premier League games against the Red Army!"

"The last time Burnley beat Liverpool dates back to 1974 (it was not called the Premier League at the time, so the two news are not contradictory)!"

"Firmino's value = the sum of Burnley's starting lineup!"

"Lu Feng's annual salary = Burnley club's annual salary!"

"Klopp's annual salary = two Burnley coaching staff!"

……

When Lu Feng got on the plane, all the news about Liverpool was full of optimism.

This is of course normal. Burnley was promoted from the British Championship to the Premier League last season, and they did not have enough strong signings in the summer-the first worth in their team was just bought from the Belgian giants Anderlecht. The midfielder Defour, the transfer fee is as high as 723 million pounds!
On August 8, the draw ceremony for the 19-2016 UEFA Champions League group stage was held at the Grimaldi Convention Center in Monaco.

This season's Liverpool has nothing to do with the Champions League, but as one of the three candidates for UEFA's best player last season, Lu Feng was still invited to attend the ceremony.

Before attending the ceremony, he also received his second European Golden Boot trophy and accepted an exclusive interview with the selection agency.

Since the biggest sponsor of the European Golden Boot is Adidas, Lu Feng, as the spokesperson of Nike, was even asked this question:
"Have you considered switching endorsement brands?"

Lu Feng laughed and answered them with Adi's most famous slogan:
"Nothing is impossible."

nothing is impossible.
-
It is a little embarrassing that although Liverpool missed the Champions League, at the draw ceremony for the Champions League, Lu Feng met an old acquaintance - the former coach Rodgers who was kicked out by Liverpool last season.

Rogers, who has been unemployed at home for nearly a year, has now picked up the coach of the Scottish Super League giants Celtic. He also led the team to successfully pass the qualifying round and enter the Champions League.

For this former coach, Lu Feng's mood is a bit complicated.

He was promoted from the youth team to the first team by Rodgers, and jointly won the Premier League championship that season.

But in the second season that followed, Luo Tiancai, who had an inflated mentality, seemed to have forgotten the existence of Lu Feng, and only allowed him to play 3 times in half a year. This not only caused Lu Feng to seek a loan, but also led to Liverpool's poor record Rogers could only dismiss get out of class sadly.

However, there is no enmity between them, and more of the fond memories of winning the championship together. After meeting at the venue, they not only hugged each other enthusiastically, but also had a wave of business bragging:
"Tsk, I was so discerning back then! I said a long time ago that you are a player who can become a superstar!"

"That's right, Director Luo is the best tactical master in today's football. I have no doubts at all. Even if you put Real Madrid, Barcelona, ​​Bayern and Celtic in the same group, you will still be able to advance strongly!"
-
The draw ceremony took nearly an hour. Compared with history, there was only one difference in the result of this group match: Serie A champion Lazio replaced Juventus and became the first seeded team.

Maybe it was too much, but the Celtics were really divided into a rather terrifying group. His three opponents were... Barcelona, ​​Manchester City, and Borussia Mönchengladbach!

Lu Feng glanced back, Rogers' face had already turned purple!
He can only wish him a good journey! -
After the draw ceremony, there was the awards ceremony for UEFA's best male and female players last season. The three candidates for the two awards took the stage respectively, and then the guests announced the answers.

Accompanied by the exciting promotional video on the big screen, Lu Feng, Ronaldo, and Griezmann stepped onto the stage.

Ronaldo is the double champion of the Champions League and the European Cup, while Griezmann is the double runner-up, losing to Ronaldo's team in both finals...

In contrast, Lu Feng only won the Serie A and Coppa Italia championships, stopped in the quarter-finals of the UEFA Champions League, and was not eligible to participate in the European Cup. Although his goals completely beat Cristiano Ronaldo + Lattice, he still lacked enough honor after all.

In a burst of warm applause, Ronaldo lifted his second UEFA best player silver trophy, and also delivered a meaningful acceptance speech:

"I am 31 years old this year. I hear many people ask me if I have considered how to choose after retirement. To their questions, I just want to say: I want to win more Golden Globes!"

He also spoke about competitors:
"Griezmann is a great young player, LU is even more incredible, he is 11 years younger than me, but he has shown terrifying dominance!
Not being able to compete with him in the Champions League this season, maybe I can breathe a sigh of relief, but as a professional player and a man, it is also a pity. "

As a former Manchester United player, he had no way to encourage Liverpool to work hard, but Ronaldo, dubbed the "Liverpool legend", felt more clearly than anyone else that the Liverpool No. 9 player standing beside him was exuding Strong breath!
He seemed to be saying all the time:
Ronaldo, you are really not young anymore!

Ronaldo, now is my time!
