i don't want to be king

Chapter 840 Zlatan and the Prank

The atmosphere was a little awkward.

Li Liang got up early and prepared to go to the base by himself, Xiao Yu asked very seriously: "Is there really no problem?

Brother Liangzi, I hardly slept all night, except for Brother Xu, I have received countless calls these days——

I have close to 100 new emails in my inbox, all about this. "

Li Liang didn't want to say more, and said lightly: "Xiao Yu, Willy is still waiting for me in the car, I have to go!"

Xiao Yu said loudly to Li Liang's back: "Why is this?
How come all of a sudden the whole world is asking if you are planning to leave Manchester United like you did in Monaco? ! "

……

Halfway through the training session in the morning, Faria blew the whistle: "Okay, let's rest for 5 minutes, and then start fighting in groups!"

This was the last training session before the team set off to Watford to prepare for the 14th round of the league. As usual, Mourinho was not on the sidelines.

His coaching team has a very careful division of labor for these daily tasks, and everything is carried out in an orderly manner.

According to Mourinho's instructions, the main players and the substitutes had a 30-minute tactical confrontation drill. This is actually just an ordinary exercise. Willie has prepared group vests for everyone.

Li Liang had no expression on his face, he already knew what color vest he was going to wear.

After Faria was divided into groups, all the players were a little surprised——Li Liang was assigned to the substitute side.

Even though Li Liang's performance declined significantly in the previous few games, it was beyond most people's expectations to let Li Liang, who is called the "new king" by the fans, play as a substitute without injuries.

Li Liang didn't say anything, and put on the blue vest silently.

The main team lined up the 3421 formation that has been rehearsing recently. In addition to Li Liang being adjusted, Rojo and Lindelof should not replace the injured Jones and Bayi. The rest of the positions are Faria's current team's best players. .

The Portuguese assistant coach arranged for the substitute side to simulate Watford's 352 formation, and Li Liang was still placed on the right.

At the beginning of the confrontation, the main team was in excellent condition, and Lukaku and Lingard soon won two consecutive cities.

Faria called a stoppage of the game, and he was very dissatisfied with the performance of the substitutes: "You are playing like shit, Watford is much better than you think!"

He replaced Herrera with Carrick, who had rarely featured since the beginning of the season, and continued to practice.

Li Liang worked hard on the right to cover the wing according to Faria's request, and dropped back from time to time to meet McTominay's pass. He remembered Faria's reminder: "Li, you must speed up the pass and cut to reduce possession of the ball."

Ibrahimovic kept loudly reminding the substitute team to run and attack on the sidelines, just like an offensive coach. The Swede couldn't help cursing loudly, and finally couldn't help but put his arms around Faria's shoulder: "Ruy, let me go up and move around. !"

Ibrahimovic kicked the replaced Rashford's ass: "Boy, take a good look at how Zlatan moves!"

When he ran to Li Liang's side, he suddenly stretched out his hands and took off Li Liang's shorts!
Although there are tight sweatpants "underlaying" inside, Li Liang still feels a sudden coldness in his buttocks!
He blushed and pulled up his shorts: "Zlatan, are you crazy?!"

Ibrahimovic, who looked like a teaching assistant just now, ran away laughing like a naughty boy: "Li, can you catch up with me?!"

Everyone was laughing, the gloom on Li Liang's face disappeared, and Ibrahimovic's prank successfully diverted his attention: "Zlatan, show me your shorts!"

Faria said meaningfully to Larin, who was laughing at the side: "Go and call Jose!"

The confrontation restarted, and the substitute side who had replaced two people was still a little cautious. Pogba saw the opportunity and suddenly inserted a strong oblique shot of nearly 35 meters to penetrate the goal again!

Li Liang was only one step away from catching up with Pogba, and watched the Frenchman put himself behind his back and calmly shoot from a long distance.

He didn't hear clearly what Ibrahimovic was cursing, he felt that anger was stirring in his heart!

When the main team scored two goals before, he thought that he really had nothing to desire and would not be angry.

After Mourinho personally told him that he had to make sacrifices for the team's overall tactics, and from the analysis Li Liang saw on the Internet-when Manchester United will inevitably establish a style of play with Pogba as the core, he In fact, huge waves have already been set off in his heart.

Accepting such an arrangement is just because I have become a real professional player. This is just the most basic professional ethics.

He didn't express any dissatisfaction to the outside world, perhaps because of his introverted personality that he developed since he was a child, and he didn't want to cause trouble.

But this by no means means that Laozi is a temperless person!
The voices from outside became clear again——

"...Do you frankly want to be a substitute for the rest of your life? Do you only get a salary that you can earn in a year?!!!"

Ibrahimovic is chattering to McTominay and a few other little guys.

Li Liang walked behind the furious Swede, and stretched out his hand——

Ibrahimovic fended off Li Liang with one hand vigilantly, and grabbed the waist of his shorts with the other hand: "You fucking..."

Before Ibrahimovic finished speaking, Li Liang interrupted him: "Zlatan, can you catch up with me?!"

Even Mourinho, who had just come to the sidelines, was taken aback, and looked at each other with his assistants.

Faria tremblingly said: "Except Eric (Bay), no one dares to do this to Zlatan!"

Ibrahimovic passed the ball to Li Liang in the middle circle, and the confrontation continued.

Pogba, who prefers to play on the left side of midfield, strode forward, and Martial and Ashley Young also quickly closed in.

This kind of confrontation training for the purpose of rehearsing tactics is not very intense, but Pogba's momentum is amazing.

Of course, Pogba can also see all the controversial topics between the Red Devils No. 6 and No. 7 that Li Liang saw on the Internet and on TV.

And from receiving Ibrahimovic's pass to advancing forward, Li Liang suddenly seemed to be a different person, just like...

Amid the exclamation, Li Liang made a beautiful Marseille maneuver. Before he could completely get rid of Pogba and Martial, the ball unexpectedly rolled from between his feet to the feet of Carrick not far away!
No one could clearly see how Li Liang made this juggling trick!

Carrick applauded secretly in his heart. He took the ball back and was about to pass back when he heard Li Liang shout: "Michael (Carrick)!"

Li Liang had already passed through the crowd, and instantly sprinted behind Yang——

Carrick did not hesitate to send the ball directly to Li Liang's feet, only a continuous acceleration, sudden stop and then acceleration, Li Liang directly shook Smalling who was caught off guard!

Larin beside Mourinho has already exclaimed: "My God!"

De Gea has realized that something is wrong and rushed out of the penalty area at an alarming speed. Li Liang didn't raise his head and continued to sprint until the Spaniard was close enough to him. The center of gravity quickly moved down to form a pendulum—

Larin was still screaming: "...This is simply a crime!"
