? Chapter 796 Star-Making Movement
The result of the Manchester derby, the first league game of the season, caused an uproar!
Everyone was stunned by this result!
Manchester United lost 1-6 away!
This was unimaginable before!
It is conceivable that what kind of severe situation Manchester United has encountered now, the pressure on Guardiola has been unprecedentedly increased.
After this game, another Manchester United star also criticized in the media.
Scholes directly attacked Pogba, who was mediocre in this game, saying that he did not show any desire to win at all, and it was not the performance that a professional player should have.
The public opinion of the media, the criticism of famous celebrities, and even the backlash from fans.
All of this makes Manchester United's prospects for this season a bit slimmer.
And for Manchester City, who won, now they don't feel any better.
After the game, Manchester City's players celebrated the victory over their arch-rivals with the fans at home!
Of course, Manchester City will not be merciful because of sympathy for their opponents!
The opponent is Manchester United, their mortal enemy in the same city!
In the case of being able to score one more goal, Manchester City will never be soft!
Such a game is enough for Manchester City fans to be happy for a season or two. Even after many seasons, Manchester City fans can proudly mention the score of 6-1 to their rival fans.
.....
The next day, the team had a day off, and then continued to gather for training.
Before training began, Gao Bo said to the players: "The joy of winning this game stopped yesterday. Next, we have more games to face. Indulging in the past will not let us win the game, it will stop us. Don't go forward!!"
A long league is like an arduous marathon.
Perhaps Manchester City's players will gain strong confidence because of such a big win,
Perhaps Manchester City fans will celebrate the victory last week.
But for Gao Bo and his coaching staff.
It's just three points.
Whether it's six to one or one to zero, it's three points.
The importance of goal difference in the long league competition is not too high. After all, there are still very few cases of goal difference in the end.
Leading in points is the safest.
In the planning book of the coaching staff, no matter what score they win, it will only be three points in the end, and it will not give Manchester City a few more points because of a big victory.
Training for the first team begins soon.
The team's next game is the League Cup.
Gao Bo does not plan to send the main force in this game, and even he is ready to transfer several players from the reserve team to play this game.
Among them is Li Yuanshan!
When Li Yuanshan received the training yellow vest together with several players who might play in the League Cup, he knew that he was likely to play in the League Cup!
Therefore, during the training, Li Yuanshan was in a trance.
The 19-year-old Li Yuanshan may soon represent Manchester City!
Although it is only a League Cup game, for Li Yuanshan, this is already a very big leap.
Thinking about the game, this made Li Yuanshan a little less focused, and the natural training effect was not much better.
When Li Yuanshan lost his mind in training and failed to stop a ball.
Gao Bo immediately frowned and stopped the training game!
Then he called Li Yuanshan to the sidelines and reprimanded him.
Manchester City players cast sympathetic eyes on Li Yuanshan.
In general, Gao Bo is a person with a good temper, he basically does not get angry, and if you train hard, the coach will not give you any "special attention".
But Li Yuanshan is different. Gao Bo is always very strict with him and his requirements are very strict.
Vardy looked at Li Yuanshan with some envy.
He knew that this was a special manifestation of the relationship between Li Yuanshan and Gao Bo.
Sometimes, being polite can only mean that your relationship with the other person has not reached that point.
Gao Bo's strictness towards Li Yuanshan, in Vardy's view, is a manifestation of the incomparable closeness between the leader and the other party.
No wonder some people say in private that Li Yuanshan is the son of the boss...
Griezmann looked at Li Yuanshan with jealousy.
The nickname "pro son" used to be exclusive to him...
.....
At the end of training, in the locker room.
Like Li Yuanshan, midfielder Denis Suarez, who often goes to the reserve league, sits next to him.
"What did the boss tell you, Li?"
Dennis asked while changing his equipment.
"He scolded me..."
Li Yuanshan spread out his hands helplessly.
"I really... envy you guy."
Dennis Suarez said it was no secret at Manchester City about the relationship between Li Yuanshan and Gao Bo.
Therefore, Denis Suarez is of course envious of Li Yuanshan's frequent "private guidance" from Gao Bo.
"What are you envious of? I can't even play in the league yet. You have come off the bench anyway." Li Yuanshan put the sneakers on the shoe rack. Manchester City has a special equipment management department that will be responsible for cleaning and arranging these sneakers.
"Have you heard that in the League Cup, the two of us will probably start the game!" Dennis approached and said mysteriously.
Li Yuanshan shook his head: "This is very obvious. The League Cup is not an important game. I'm afraid it's a substitute plus a few reserve players to deal with it."
"It's a starter anyway, Lee!" Denis Suarez didn't think so.
"If this game does well, maybe I can make it to the roster more often!"
Denis Suarez said he is still relatively optimistic. After all, compared to Li Yuanshan, his competitive pressure is slightly less.
He can play as a midfielder in both positions on the left and right, as well as as an attacking midfielder.
Due to Kaka's injury, in addition to the three regular main players, there are currently two substitutes Adam White and Eriksen, and these two players are between the main substitutes, often appearing on the bench, and even sometimes rotating. when it can start.
Therefore, Denis Suarez is also often able to get the opportunity to play.
If I don't perform better when Kaka is injured, I'm afraid there will be no chance at all.
And Li Yuanshan is a center, and more importantly, he is a pure center, a traditional big center type.
As a bridgehead in the frontcourt, Li Yuanshan's ability is mainly in his body and header, and there is no way to pull the side.
The team's current main center is Hazard, followed by Vardy. Even if neither of them can play, Sanchez and Griezmann can also play in this position.
No matter how they are sorted, Li Yuanshan's playing position is very low.
Fortunately, he is the main force in the reserve team.
In the reserve league, Li Yuanshan, who has played five games, scored two goals and had two assists, which is a good completion of the center's task.
"That's true!" Li Yuanshan said with a smile.
"I'll give you an assist then!" Denis Suarez said while patting Li Yuanshan's shoulder.
"Don't worry!! I won't waste your pass!!" Li Yuanshan and Dennis high-five.
......
September 25th!
League Cup third round.
Teams from the Premier League are fully in the fray.
Manchester City's opponents are Wigan Athletic, their opponents in the FA Cup final last season.
Wigan Athletic were relegated from the Premier League last season and lost another FA Cup tie.
Wigan Athletic's main goal this season is of course promotion from the Championship, and other cup competitions and the like, they will not put too much effort.
And this game is against Manchester City away, despite losing to Manchester City in the FA Cup final last season, to some extent, the two sides also have grudges.
But Wigan Athletic have no idea of revenge and Manchester City.
The two sides are not at the same level at all, and the strength of Wigan Athletic does not allow them to be distracted too much.
Just to be promoted to the Premier League, the competition in the British Championship is fierce enough. Even after Wigan Athletic was relegated, not many main players left, but they want to get out of the British Championship, which is known as the strongest second league in the world. It's still quite difficult to level up in the middle.
Therefore, Wigan Athletic has a second-tier lineup for this game.
For Manchester City, they are also playing in the second-tier lineup.
But unlike Wigan Athletic's mentality of giving up the game, Manchester City wants to win this game.
In the locker room, Gao Bo emphasized the team's goal in this game!
win!
"I will only accept winning!"
Gao Bo said this after explaining the tactics.
......
When the players from both sides entered the stadium, Li Yuanshan appeared in the queue of Manchester City players!
"Li Yuanshan makes his debut!!!"
At this time, far away in China, Duan Xuan, a commentator of CCTV Sports Channel, said excitedly.
Although it is only a League Cup game, this game is still attracting attention in China.
Because before this game, many domestic media began to report that Li Yuanshan will get a chance to play in the League Cup.
"This is another Chinese player who got a chance to play in the UK three years after Zheng Zhi returned to China! And he represents a super team like Manchester City!!! Come on Li Yuanshan!!!"
In football, players are actually more concerned than coaches.
Especially in the eyes of the fans, after all, the game is completed by the players, and most of the time in a game, the fans are also concerned about the performance of the players.
The work of the coach is more focused on the work behind the scenes. During the game, the camera of the coach is much less than that of the players.
......
In this game, Manchester City played relatively simple.
Because this is a mix-and-match lineup of substitutes and reserves, in terms of tacit understanding, it is naturally not as good as the main force.
And the team also has a high center in the frontcourt, and Manchester City is also attacking around the high center.
Gao Bo looked at Li Yuanshan, of course he hoped that Li Yuanshan's performance would be better.
In the team, although the relationship between him and Li Yuanshan has never been mentioned, everyone knows the relationship between them.
If Li Yuanshan can't show a convincing performance, it will inevitably be hyped.
Head coach cronyism or something.
Although from the bottom of his heart, Gao Bo chose Li Yuanshan, the relationship between them obviously accounts for a large proportion, because there are many young high centers similar to Li Yuanshan in this world, and there are also a wide range of choices in Europe.
But....China is only one Li Yuanshan.
This alone will allow Gao Bo to make a choice.
The role of a star in promoting a sport is obvious.
The popularity of basketball in China is largely due to the fact that our country has a Yao Ming and a world-class superstar, and the promotion of a sport is twice the result with half the effort.
And the biggest problem in Chinese football, corruption, blackness, and lack of effort by players are just secondary factors. The most important thing is that in the whole country, there are not many people playing football at all...
The Argentine Football Association is black enough, right?
But who would dare to say that Argentina is not the world's best team! There are more than two million registered players in Argentina!
Even if the funds of the Argentine national team have been embezzled by the Argentine Football Association to the point where Messi's coal boss pays for the air tickets to go abroad, they still get along well.
On the other hand, in China, according to public data, the number of registered players is only... 8,000!
This figure, less than Argentina is two percent!
So, if we talk about the game between the Chinese national team and the Argentine national team, it is not China.
This is the difference! The difference between heaven and earth!
This is the gap between Chinese football and world football powers.
This gap is not something that players can make up for with their hard work.
This is fundamentally not the opponent's opponent at all.
And to change this situation, we can only start from the root - first of all, someone has to play football.
.....
If only relying on Li Yuanshan's current strength, he still has a long way to go to become a star.
But with Gao Bo, all this is different.
[Match card (orange): physical confrontation ability increased by 15%, header ability increased by 15%, speed increased by 15%, designated player "Li Yuanshan" to use! 】
This card was chosen by Gao Bo after he got the mission reward at the end of last season.
It can be said that this is specially prepared for Li Yuanshan.
Physical confrontation and headers are Li Yuanshan's strengths!
At this point, Gao Bo has strengthened, making him more powerful in these two aspects.
And Li Yuanshan's weakness lies in mobility.
At this point, it is necessary to strengthen the speed!
......
Li Yuanshan feels that his state of this game is very good!
His running, confrontation, and even control of the high-altitude ball!
All seem to be at ease!
This even made Li Yuanshan feel that this game was much easier than playing in the reserve league!
The third minute of the game!
Li Yuanshan stopped the ball on the chest in the penalty area, protected the ball, and returned it to Denis Suarez!
Dennis Suarez shoots furiously!
The football roared towards the goal and was saved by the goalkeeper!
Manchester City get a corner!
Denis Suarez takes a corner kick.
In the penalty area, Li Yuanshan raised his arms high, and Denis Suarez also made a gesture.
This is a set-piece tactic that has been practiced before the game!
Everyone covered Li Yuanshan's position! !
Dennis put his hand down, and sent a forward point!
And Li Yuanshan first made a move to point back, and then suddenly jumped forward!
The other players helped him open the defense, and the Wigan Athletic players who were in charge of the front-point defense were crushed by Li Yuanshan whether it was a physical confrontation or a header!
Shake the head and attack the door!
The football flies to the goal from the back point accurately!
One to zero! ! ! ! ! !
"The corner kick starts... Li Yuanshan... Header!!!"
Duan Xuan shouted! !
"Beautiful!!! Beautiful!!!! Li Yuanshan scored in the first official match in England!!!!"
"A beautiful head-shaking attack!! Completely showed his physical fitness!! How many years, we haven't seen such a Chinese player appear in many years! A big center!! A very powerful big center!! He is only 19 years old this year!!! He is the best choice for the future striker of Chinese football!!!”
Duan Xuan almost wiped away tears.
This is hope!
Unlike Gao Bo, Duan Xuan didn't think much about it.
In his opinion, as long as there are a few good players to improve the national team's performance, there will naturally be more people who pay attention to football.
After scoring the goal, Li Yuanshan was very excited and ran to the sidelines with his arms waving.
Gao Bo knew what Li Yuanshan was doing when he saw Li Yuanshan's actions.
He laughed and opened his arms.
Li Yuanshan plunged into his arms.
"I scored! I scored!" Li Yuanshan held Gao Bo incoherently.
Gao Bo patted him on the back.
He can understand this feeling.
The 19-year-old boy came to Europe at the age of 15. After several years of youth training, he finally played in the first team and scored!
Could there be a more perfect debut?
"Thank you, brother!"
When Li Yuanshan came out of Gao Bo's arms, he looked at Gao Bo and said seriously.
"Call me the boss in the team!!" Gao Bo tried his best to keep his face straight, but the smile on his face could not be hidden.
Li Yuanshan's goal gave Gao Bo the feeling that his child had finally grown up.
The corners of his eyes were wrinkled with laughter.
When he watched Li Yuanshan return to the court, Gao Bo put his hands on his hips, as if he had accomplished something that had been pressing on his mind.
.....
At this time, in China, Meizhou, Guangdong.
Chen Lao and his wife watched Li Yuanshan and Gao Bo embrace each other, and Chen Lao also wiped away his tears.
When Li Yuanshan called home, although he never said it, Chen Lao knew that training abroad was several times harder than in China.
And now he scores goals in the game, it is a hard work. After the orphanage closed, Li Yuanshan was the only child who lived with Chen Lao.
This is basically the same as his own grandson.
Now seeing Li Yuanshan's performance in foreign competitions, Chen Lao is also very relieved.
At least, he doesn't have to worry about the future of the distant mountains.
......
The game restarts.
After scoring the goal, Li Yuanshan became more active!
Eighteenth minute of the game!
Li Yuanshan made an accurate header after receiving a long pass from the backcourt!
Dennis = Suarez moves forward and volleys directly without stopping the ball!
Football flies into goal again!
Two to zero! !
In less than 20 minutes of the game, Manchester City was already leading 2-0!
......
The final score of this game is five to zero!
Li Yuanshan, who started the game, performed very well!
In his first team debut, he scored two goals and an assist!
This is a very perfect night for Li Yuanshan!
Although this is only a League Cup match, this has already made everyone very much recognize Li Yuanshan's performance.
At the end of the game, when Li Yuanshan and his teammates went to thank the home fans, the young Li Yuanshan also received the courtesy of the home fans shouting their names.
Li Yuanshan grinned, this was a perfect start.
Gao Bo was also very happy.
He was very successful in Li Yuanshan's "Star-Making Movement".
As long as Li Yuanshan gradually integrates into the team, he also intends to give him more chances to play until he can adapt to the rhythm of the league.
