Chapter 977 Ambition

"Why didn't Romelu (Lukaku) come?

Does anyone know how his inspection went? "

Li Liang asked in the locker room. There were other people who had the same doubts as him. Someone called Little Warcraft, but no one answered.

Everyone turned their attention to Pogba, who has a very good relationship with Little Warcraft in private, and the latter shrugged his shoulders: "Uh, I didn't know that Romelu checked so well."

I didn't see Little Monster until I came to the training ground. The first assistant coach Lalin who appeared told everyone: "Romelu is still in the hospital, there shouldn't be any big problems."

Everyone already had a premonition of something, and the training sessions that used to be filled with joy and laughter became much quieter.

When everyone came to the tactics classroom one after another from the locker room and found that there was no tactics manual on the table, they all fell silent.

Magic Bird and Faria walked into the classroom together. Seeing the important task of waiting quietly, Magic Bird nodded and Faria behind him shook his head.

Bayi couldn't help but ask first: "Boss..."

The magic bird coughed, and Bayi immediately closed his mouth.

Magic Bird came to the stage: "Everyone, let's go back to the hotel tomorrow, and continue to compete in the Ittihad the day after tomorrow——

Of course you all know this.

- Now I want to tell you something you don't know. "

Everyone is aware of what happened, but is still waiting for the good news.

"Very well, the good news is we just need to get through at the Etihad without conceding two goals, or we score one goal, then we just need not concede three goals.

How is it worth looking forward to? "

Everyone continued to listen quietly.

Magic Bird frowned: "There is one more bad news.

Romelu has another problem with his calf muscles, and the most optimistic estimate is that it will take about two to three weeks to recover. "

The atmosphere in the classroom suddenly became tense.

Magic Bird raised his voice: "Yes, this means that we have to temporarily lose a striker who scored 20 goals!

At the same time, it also means that we will lose our offensive fulcrum in the next Etihad game!
We need to find a solution in the next 48 hours! "

The magic bird pressed the remote control button of the projection that had been warmed up for a long time: "Now I announce the end of the tactics class.

Everyone come to AON two hours early tomorrow. "

Everyone still sat motionless in their seats.

The magic bird froze for a moment: "Huh?

You can leave now! "

"José!"

Li Liang stood up and said, "We must find a solution now!

We can't know whether we will start at this time tomorrow!

Don't let Romelu's injury cloud our judgment --

It's our fourth game against Manchester City, but not the last of the season. "

Everyone immediately echoed: "Yes, Jose, we must prepare as soon as possible!"

"Lee is right!"

"We have to find the best plan B like we did with Bayern!"

Everyone turned their attention to Ibrahimovic in unison.

The Swede looked solemn: "Jose, I'm fully prepared!"

Magic Bird patted the table vigorously: "Very good, gentlemen, I like your attitude!

Don't forget to come to the base two hours early tomorrow.

goodbye! "

After he finished speaking, he left the surprised crowd and turned to leave.

Li Liang quietly watched the people discussing fiercely, and slowly some people got up and left.

……

Until the thigh also stood up: "Li, Zlatan, are you still leaving?
I have to go first.

You know, each of us has our own way of dealing with stress..."

Li Liang got up and hugged his thigh: "Alexis, see you tomorrow!"

Only Ibrahimovic and Li Liang were left in the classroom.

Ibrahimovic said: "I used to think that anger would be my best motivation.

I like being different and kicking the ass of people who laugh at me.

I hate those short-sighted guys who don't know what greatness is! "

Li Liang replied: "Zlatan, you are a legend, you are already great enough!"

Ibrahimovic lowered his head, and quickly raised it again, but the sharpness in his eyes lost earlier: "Li, I have to tell you.

I'm turning 37, I'm getting old, my legs are getting heavier and it takes longer than before to recover after each workout..."

Li Liang remained calm as usual: "I know that too."

Ibrahimovic stood up and got on the table, looking out of the window: "After the game against Bayern, I realized that staying is of course an extremely correct decision.

Because I can personally participate in the birth of a miracle and see with my own eyes how a new legend shocks the world——

But what pains me is when I realize I can no longer contribute enough to a United team like this..."

"No, Zlatan!"

Li Liang also stood up: "Of course you are part of this miracle!

At La Trafford we couldn't have made it to the second half without you -

Paul (Pogba), Scott (McTominay), Jesse (Lingard) and Marcus (Rashford) and I all got a lot from you!
Now is the time when we need you to stand up! "

Ibrahimovic sighed: "In England, now my body can't even last half of the game—"

……

In Magic Bird's office, Li Liang sat quietly on the sofa.

The magic bird with white hair in front of him looked extremely tired: "What do you think?
Our morale is pretty good right now, which will be an advantage...

So what's your opinion?

Um? "

Li Liang replied: "Everyone's physical fitness has reached the limit.

——Of course Vincent (Kopany) and the others too.

And in the last game, several of their key players got enough rest——

Kun (Aguero), Jesus, Leroy (Sane) and by the way, Fernandinho, that guy is a monster..."

Magic Bird nodded vigorously: "Alexis is very tired, and Juan (Mata), he can't participate in today's recovery training.

If Romelu can't fight, our new system..."

Li Liang continued: "We still have Zlatan, Jesse can play in the middle and on the right, and Marcus can play in the center and on the left."

The magic bird leaned back on the back of the seat and looked up at the ceiling: "This is what I'm most worried about.

It's hard for Marcus to move like Romelu in front of Vincent and Nicolas (Otamendi), he's even weaker in the back!
Pep won't leave us a little space, and Marcus, who can't sprint, will be watched dead by them! "

Li Liang: "What about Zlatan?"

The magic bird was silent for a long time——

"Lee, last season he almost completely ruptured his cruciate ligament!
I have seen too many players ruined by the same injury, but Zlatan is really like a monster!

——He actually fully recovered!
Including psychology!

But after the match against Bayern, I felt that Zlatan had changed.

He lost one thing—

Of course at his age, that's normal. "
