i don't want to be king

Chapter 875 The Last Battle of 2017

Huge cheers erupted from the Dream Theater, and all the Red Devils fans cheered desperately for the home team, hoping for a miracle at the last moment!

Burnley, who performed well this season, were united and withstood Manchester United's indiscriminate bombing at the last moment. In the end, the game ended and the score was fixed at 2:2.

In the entire stadium decorated with the atmosphere of the New Year, the applause and singing seemed a bit noisy. Li Liang and Willie heard the surrounding fans still express their dissatisfaction with the draw:

"In this way, the distance between us and Manchester City will be even greater!"

"Is this our home court? It looks like we would have scored more than 3 goals in the first half!"

In the cheerful "Christmas Song" played by Dream Theater, Li Liang and Willie looked at each other sadly and were speechless for a long time.

After this game, Manchester United is still firmly in second place with 45 points, but Manchester City still leads the Red Devils by as much as 9 points with one game less.

The two walked into the locker room together as Mourinho instructed on the phone.

An atmosphere of frustration and disappointment filled the air. Seeing Li Liang walking in without any protective gear, Smolin exclaimed, "Li, why are you here?!"

Magic Bird said loudly: "Li even plans to play in this game...

When did we become like this?

Even Burnley can't beat without Lee? ! "

After everyone left, Magic Bird yelled at Li Liang: "Are you crazy? Li, you want to end your career early?

Want to spend the rest of your life in a wheelchair? ! "

Li Liang replied: "I can really train, Jose, please believe me!"

Magic Bird was furious: "Yes, I believe that if you can return to the game, we can at least get 2 more points in these two games!
But what's the point?
The time when the team needs you most is definitely not now, we still have many important games!

And you still have a future! "

The last sentence touched Li Liang deeply, he took a step forward to support the magic bird's shoulder: "Jose, after listening.

I am by no means talking casually, of course I know what is the most important.

We're only halfway through the season and every game that follows will determine what we end up with!
If I really miss these games, then I would rather die! "

The magic bird was silent for a long time before saying: "Okay.

tomorrow morning……"

Back at the hotel, Xiao Yu was also taken aback. After Li Liang explained repeatedly, she was still very worried.

Li Liang repeatedly explained that Xiao Yu reluctantly agreed that Li Liang could go to AON early as usual.

Early the next morning, Willie drove Li Liang to the AON center.

Walking onto the training ground, Li Liang was taken aback. Magic Bird and his assistants were all standing on the sidelines.

He couldn't help asking: "Jose, didn't you say it's just you and Rui?"

After the basic test, Faria and Lalin were even a little confused, and Faria kept shaking his head: "...This situation is not impossible, but it is extremely rare...

It can only be said that Li's physique is really special!
Jose, I'm willing to guarantee with my life that Li can really resume training! "

In the training session in the morning, they saw Li Liang jogging alone with Lalin's company, and the Manchester United players were also dumbfounded.

During the training interval, Ibrahimovic, Carrick and Smalling all ran to Li Liang, and Ibrahimovic said: "Li, you can't do this!

Otherwise, if you don't reach my age, you will have to retire early! "

The rest of the people also expressed that they could not understand Li Liang's decision.

Lalin spread his hands: "Guys, this is Jose's decision.

Lee passed the club's official test this morning..."

In the following tactical class, Faria announced the roster for the 21st round of the league against Southampton at home, and Li Liang was successfully selected as a substitute.

The afternoon was the media open day, and Li Liang continued his recovery training with Faria and Larin in the gym.

Back at the hotel, Xiao Yu finally felt relieved. She told Li Liang that the video of Li Liang's injury in the match with Blue Fox and related comments had become a hot topic.

Li Liang saw on the Internet that Mourinho, Ibrahimovic and others mentioned this matter in the interviews in the afternoon.

Magic Bird said: "...I know what you reporters like to hear, but will you pay the fine for me?

Lee has been getting more and more violations in recent games, he suffered a serious injury to his right knee against Leicester City...

Fortunately, the injury was much less serious than we expected.

What I want to say is that a player like Lee will greatly help improve the overall image of the entire league. If the league continues to brutally invade him, I would rather Lee or a good player like him choose to leave...

So we need some sighted referees more than guys who can't see a foul within 5 meters..."

Ibrahimovic's words were even more blunt: "...Sometimes a genius like Lee is unstoppable, so fouls are an understandable part of football games, but if fouls like that happen again...

Yes, I'll grab the guy who fouled and break his leg..."

What surprised Li Liang even more was that Sir Alex also stood up and spoke out publicly: "Manchester United is a big club that abides by the rules, but if fouls like Li's are not punished, I think the club can directly call the police..."

Li Liang closed the computer and said to Xiao Yu who was beside him: "Xiao Yu, I'm really sorry, Christmas is the New Year at this time, and I was injured, so you didn't have a good time..."

Xiao Yu replied with a smile: "Brother Liangzi, as long as we are healthy and happy, every day is a festival and a new year!"

……

2018 is getting closer and closer. On the evening of December 12th, Old Trafford Stadium was full of New Year's festive atmosphere.

Mourinho said loudly in the locker room: "Okay everyone, this is our last game in 2017, everyone outside and ourselves need a gift!"

Valencia led everyone to shout together: "Manchester United! Go forward!"

Then everyone strode out from the locker room.

When the game started, Li Liang and Ibrahimovic were sitting together. The temperature was very low in this winter night and everyone was wearing thick coats.

Pogba was very active after the opening, almost covering the area between the two restricted areas.

Under his brilliant performance, Manchester United firmly occupied the field advantage from the beginning of the game.

In the 7th and 13th minutes, Lingard and Lukaku got shot opportunities one after another, but unfortunately neither of them took it.

Seeing the hope of victory, the fans tried their best to sing and shout.

Ibrahimovic frowned, and Li Liang also frowned.

Ibrahimovic finally couldn't help complaining: "Paul didn't move according to Ruy's arrangement...

We need him in the middle, this guy is always on the left and wants the ball! "

Li Liang replied: "Paul has too many balls!

In this way, Romelu (Lukaku) will become more and more difficult..."

The visiting team gradually stabilized, and the scene became more and more dull.

At the end of the first half, the two sides drew 0:0.
