Chapter 577 Bad Boys

In the locker room, the team manager had already arranged all the equipment on everyone's seat, only Li Liang stood there motionless.

When everyone was about to change, he took off his earphones and started to prepare.

Falcao folded his arms and stared at Li Liang. He remembered that when he was young, he would always bear tremendous pressure before every key game.

The guy in front of him was 26 years old and only played in the Champions League knockout round for the first time. Unfortunately, he lost 3:5 in the first round, which cast a shadow over the upcoming game.

This is a game that almost determines the life and death of the team in the Champions League. Can he withstand such pressure?
Spignoli led the players out of the player channel first, and there were crazy cheers in the stands, and countless Monaco flags were waved at the same time.

Obviously the club and the fans have done a lot of preparatory work, and the stands of the entire stadium except Cape Dale turned into a sea of ​​red and white.

A lot of Manchester City loyalists also came. At a glance, Cape Dale Point was almost completely surrounded by sky blue. They ignored the shouts of the surrounding home team fans and sang passionately on their own, obviously not to be outdone.

The result of this is that they also got a lot of cheers when Manchester City entered the field.

Li Liang, who was stretching, stared at these familiar opponents. He was patiently waiting for the opponents to finish jogging and stretching—once they started to play with the ball, he could see their latest overall rating.

Monaco started to practice with the ball first, and Li Liang looked around. Sure enough, the overall ratings of his teammates before the battle had also evolved to varying degrees.

Raj, who served as the captain of the game today, rose to 80, his partner Remyerson also reached 80, and Mendy reached 81.

The good midfielder Bakayoko reached a conspicuous 83, and Fabinho came to the highest 84 in the game!

Lemar also reached 82, and Bernardo Silva also reached 83.

Mbappe, who was bouncing the ball with a serious expression, quickly caught Li Liang's attention. He stared at it for a while and finally confirmed that the little guy with a total rating of only 71 when he first saw him has now surpassed his total rating , reached 82!

He temporarily forgot about the Manchester City team who were still stretching, and tiptoed behind Mbappé, and pulled off his shorts!

With a scream, Mbappe immediately turned around and chased Li Liang. Taking advantage of his speed, he quickly rushed forward and jumped on Li Liang's back. Li Liang laughed and fell down on the turf, protecting his shorts tightly.

Falcao, who was standing on the sidelines with Jardim, burst into laughter. At this moment, he finally understood that Li Liang had overcome the pressure, and he also dragged Mbappe over by the way!
Jardim said nothing, he just smiled at Falcao.

This was the first time he had seen Li Liang play a prank on the court, and it was in front of nearly 2 people!

He understood that Li Liang had untied his knots at this moment, and had finally let go of all distracting thoughts in the face of this match.

The teammates and coaches who saw this scene burst into laughter, and the audience on this side of the stand also burst into laughter.

Seeing Mbappé desperately trying to tear off Li Liang's shorts, Talon laughed at the blushing Xiao Yu, "Radamel told me that Li is a gentle and quiet person, but what do you think?" It's not like that either?"

Gazi on the press seat also smiled and said to Mou Zhaoge: "Not only has Li made great progress in his game, but he also seems to have learned to be 'bad'!"

Grimandi sat down with his former team-mate Henry, and they made room for Adams.

The two looked at each other excitedly, and Grimandi nodded vigorously: "If it is in this state, Monaco is not completely hopeless today!"

The players of Manchester City also saw the movement here. Some people wanted to laugh but held back. Everyone finished stretching and continued to practice with the ball.

Li Liang and Mbappe had already stood up, and Mbappe blushed: "Damn it, Li, how could you be in front of so many people..."

Li Liang laughed loudly: "Killian, I just want you to relax."

Speaking of which, the good friends ran back to their teammates while holding each other's shoulders, talking and laughing.

Li Liang understands that if he wants to realize his wish, he must need Mbappe's strength.

Judging from the fact that Mbappe raised his shorts and quickly caught up with him in less than two seconds, it goes without saying that this little guy is in absolutely no problem today.

The bowl of chicken soup for the soul that Li Liang cooked up in the locker room just now was intended to be quietly poured into Mbappe, but now it seems completely unnecessary. This moment is far inferior to one of the most common "body language" on the football field Comes and works.

Li Liang smiled comfortably when he saw that his passing teammates were vigilantly protecting their shorts.By pulling a hair and moving the whole body, by "sacrificing" Mbappe in full view, I received better results than expected!
He began to carefully observe the Manchester City players.

Aguero still has an astonishing 92 overall rating, De Bruyne is still 91, and everyone else seems to have no change.

With another glance, he found that Sane's overall rating seemed to be higher than in the previous game, reaching 84.

Li Liang always felt as if someone was missing, Barros was calling himself, so he had to turn his head and practice quickly in two groups with Mbappé.

The two alternated left and right feet face to face short pass, Li Liang suddenly remembered when he touched the ball with his left foot that he hadn’t seen Xiwa just now—the 31-year-old Spanish international David Silva!
At this moment, the fitness coach is still helping Xiwa to fully stretch.This game is of great significance. Guardiola specifically asked the coaching team to achieve the best physical condition before Xiwa played.

Everyone understood that under such a tough battle, the whole team still had to rely on Xiwa's performance to control the situation.

The list of the two sides was announced on time one hour before the start of the game. Monaco's starting lineup was quite satisfactory and roughly the same as the outside world predicted, while Manchester City's list quickly attracted great attention.

Guardiola still set up the same 4141 formation in the away game as in the last game, and after the strange attempt to use birds to play the left back in the last game, he used the 31-year-old Serbian veteran and the authentic left back Coraro in this game Husband replaced Otamendi in the starting lineup and partnered with Stones to play double central defenders!

Yaya Toure, who performed well on both offense and defense in the last game, was placed on the bench, and Asuka replaced him as a single midfielder.

Yardim sighed secretly, Guardiola's vision is really sharp!
Henry said to Grimandi: "This game is definitely worth watching!

When I was in Barcelona, ​​I never understood why Pep focused on training Butzquez, who was inferior to Toure in all aspects, and later even gave up Toure, who was recognized as the world's number one midfielder at the time. "

Grimandi replied puzzled: "Yeah, last summer he kept clamoring for a transfer, and Guardiola's attitude was very cold.

You know, even the 33-year-old Toure is still very strong, just the kind of ruthless character Manchester City needs! "

Henry smiled and said, "If you want to blame, you can only blame Toure for being too powerful..."

While they were chatting, Li Liang finally saw and began to practice Xiwa.

He froze immediately.
