i don't want to be king

Chapter 710

The departure to Turin is imminent, and the whole Monaco team is quietly waiting for boarding at Nice Airport.

Sitting with everyone, Jardim thought of the scene in Nancy.

Before the start of the second half of the game, the conflict between Bakayoko and Dilar broke the dead atmosphere in the locker room, and Jardim himself completely lost his composure under the rage.

To everyone's surprise, Li Liang stood up again, and he firmly told everyone that no matter what happened, he would never give up his goal of reaching the Cardiff Champions League final.

After getting along for a season, everyone knows that Li Liang will do what he says, but at this time, this declaration, which is similar to a daydream, is unbelievable.

Jardim can't forget when Li Liang suddenly turned to himself: "Leonardo, will I still play at about 65 minutes?"

After getting a positive answer from the Portuguese, Li Liang said firmly to everyone: "Okay.

No matter what happens before I play, I will score more than one goal after I play!
There is no way we could lose points here today!
So if you really want to win in Turin, please don't concede another goal until I come on! "

Subasic first laughed out loud: "Lee, what nonsense are you talking about?!

We are the team that wants to win the league championship, how could we make stupid mistakes again! ? "

Glick slammed his fist on the table: "If I can't win Nancy today, I will walk back to Monaco!"

Falcao shouted: "Come on, brothers, kill them!"

Bakayoko stretched out his arms to Dillard, and the two hugged tightly, Bakayoko shouted to everyone: "I swear, I must fight like a man until the last second of this season! "

Everyone gathered together again and shouted loudly around Falcao: "Forward!
Monaco! "

Seeing the team members rushing out in a murderous manner, Caldeira was dumbfounded: "These guys..."

Another assistant coach Barros sighed: "Unexpectedly, in less than 3 days, they completely forgot about the loss to Juventus..."

Jardim laughed suddenly: "It was Li who let them out of the cage again!"

Sure enough, Silva scored another overtake goal for Monaco in the first minute of the second half, and the Portuguese winger frantically rushed to the sidelines and pointed at Li Liang and shouted: "See!?

You guys, we can do the same! "

Everyone on the bench completely believed at this moment. As Jardim said, it was Li Liang who made everyone temporarily forget the pain of losing to Juventus.
On the day after the match against Nancy, the whole team returned.In Latuby's tactical class the next day, Jardim announced his away plan.

The tactics are still narrated by Caldeira, and everyone has seen the starting lineup and squad against Juventus in the tactical manual in advance.

The tone set by Yardim in this game is to attack with all his strength. Unless he can win the away game by at least 1 goal and must score more than [-] goals, any other ending means that Monaco will bid farewell. Champions League final.

Vasiliev has already informed Yardim in advance that the club hopes to finish the game smoothly rather than the illusory possibility of reversal, and then completely devote all its energy to the next three remaining league games.

Yardim felt that not only were all the team members brought out of the tremendous pressure by Li Liang, but even his own thinking had also changed.

It is precisely because of this that Jardim advocated an unprecedented lineup in Turin's game against Juventus——

He boldly borrowed Juve's tactics at the Louis II Stadium, and placed three central defenders in the defense - Glick, Remelsson and Raj.

He gave Mendy, who has returned from injury, and Sidibi, who has returned to the right, great tactical freedom, allowing them to mainly operate in the frontcourt just like Juventus' Sandro and Alves.

Moutinho, a veteran with stronger attack power, replaced Fabinho in the starting lineup. He and Bakayoko served as the team's barrier in the midfield and were responsible for the overall offensive and defensive rhythm control.

Falcao and Mbappe lead the striker, and Li Liang is responsible for connecting the midfield and organizing the attack behind them.

Although there is a considerable gap in strength between you and the opposing Juventus players in almost every position in this lineup, the Monaco players were obviously excited in the tactics classroom.

No matter from which point of view, this is not a lineup that will easily compromise in the away game. Jardim's determination is obvious on paper!
Caldeira went on to say: "Our opponent Juventus scored a 35:1 draw in the Turin Derby at home in the 1th round of Serie A yesterday.

As you all know, even including Buffon, Allegri rested 8 players who started against us. Only Bonucci, Dybala and Mandzukic started against Torino.

We have to face this honestly-Juventus will have a clear physical advantage when they return to the home court. "

Falcao said: "There are not many teams in Europe that can form two super lineups like Juventus, and they and Naples, which ranks second in the league, have opened up the gap of two goals!
So they have the capital to do such a rotation! "

Jardim nodded: "Yes, comparatively speaking, we face much greater pressure in the league than they do.

So there is no way to give everyone here enough rest time like they do.

But I believe it also means we are hungrier than they are! "

The tactical lesson on the day before departure for Turin was much longer than any previous one, and Jardim had prepared a lot of new content.

……

The flight took off smoothly. Li Liang looked at the familiar scenery outside the window, put on his headphones and turned on the music.

In yesterday's tactical class, Yardim invited every player who participated in the match against Juventus to participate in the replay. After more than 5 days of thinking, everyone expressed their true feelings.

In the audience, Li Liang finally felt the deep helplessness and helplessness of his teammates when facing the mighty Juventus.

When it was his turn, he came to the stage: "...I feel like I haven't been able to play the way I want to.

A few breakthroughs were successful, and looking back now, it seems more like a trap they set for me.

I think each of us has been thoroughly studied by them...

I had two of the best chances of the game, one was the pass to Kylian towards the end of the first half...

Another time was the last goal scored.

My feeling is that facing Buffon and Chiellini, you can’t think too much at all. Their experience is too rich, coupled with their super ability to read the game and predict, it is impossible to follow our usual rhythm Shake their defenses.

In those two opportunities, frankly speaking, I relied more on my instincts, but I received different results..."

Jardim originally wanted to use this method to give players a psychological massage, let everyone speak out their inner fears and regrets, and make everyone more united and cohesive.

To his surprise, he was greatly inspired by the words of Li Liang and others!
