Chapter 94 After the Chinese Football Association got the news in the fourth round of the FA Cup, it immediately expressed strong dissatisfaction with the Huaguo Sports Channel, accusing the Huaguo Sports Channel of trying to provoke an incident, and hinted that if the Huaguo Sports Channel continues this behavior, the possibility of blocking the interview rights of the Huaguo Sports Channel in the future will not be ruled out.In this regard, the national super TV station, Huaguo Sports Channel, simply ignored this small threat.The elder of Taiwan personally spoke: "If you can't face up to your mistakes, just want to hide them, and then get by, then Chinese football will never have a bright day." ”The Football Association is well aware of the huge influence of Huaguo Sports Channel, and after calculating and holding internal discussions again and again, it finally reluctantly made the decision to reconcile with Huaguo Sports Channel as much as possible.There is no way, the broadcast of domestic sports events, if there is no participation of Huaguo Sports Channel, the influence of no matter what event will be greatly reduced.Football has been due to the weak performance of the national team and many fans have gradually lost, if the interview of Huaguo Sports Channel is lost, then the influence of domestic football may be completely overwhelmed by basketball and other sports events."
Remember, we must not let the influence of basketball and other events overpower us."
A high-level boss of the Football Association said, "If there is really that day, one will be counted as one, and all the responsible personnel will leave me!"
”…… After Mendes learned of the huge pressure from the fans faced by the Chinese Football Association, he immediately found Lu Hengchong and said: "It seems that someone may soon beg you to enter the national team." ”Before Lu Hengchong could speak, Father Lu next to him smiled disdainfully and said: "Don't underestimate the people of the Football Association, if they don't have real interests, they won't slap themselves in the face."
Xiao Chong still finds a way to adjust his state for the time being, and as for the national team, let's talk about it later. ”Lu Hengchong agreed with his father's words and nodded: "Yes, I'll train hard first and kick the ball well."
As for the national team, let's talk about it then. ”…… Soon, on January 25, 2004, Manchester City will host Tottenham Hotspur, their opponents in the fourth round of the FA Cup on their home turf at 7pm.For Lu Hengchong, this will be the last game of 19 games of weakened form.As long as he finishes this game, Lu Hengchong can return to his best state.In this regard, Lu Hengchong is looking forward to it."
Tottenham Hotspur are a mid-table team in the Premier League and currently sit 11th in the Premier League table, 10 points behind Manchester City."
Wang Jianxiang, a commentator on Huaguo Sports Channel, said eloquently, "In addition, the Manchester City team is playing at its own home stadium, and in tonight's game, the Manchester City team's victory is still very high in theory." ”Guest guest Liu Lu said: "Yes, Manchester City should be sure to win the opponent in this game." ”"Okay, let's take a look at the starting line-up for Manchester City."
Commentator Wang Jianxiang said after the starting list of Manchester City was played on the TV screen."
Hey, tonight the Manchester City team's forward line Wanchope started, and partnered with Lu Hengchong to form the Manchester City team's striker."
Guest guest Liu Lu also said: "Yes, it seems that the first goal scored by Wanchope after returning from injury in the last game won him the opportunity to start this game.Of course, this also shows that the current Manchester City team's lack of strikers is too serious, so that their coach Keegan can only pin his hopes on Wanchope. ”At this moment, the broadcast scene shifted to Anelka's body.'
Anelka was on the bench tonight and it looks like Keegan is ready to reactivate him.'
Commentator Wang Jianxiang said with a smile.Of course, he didn't know how important Lu Hengchong's lobbying between Anelka and Keegan was.If it weren't for Lu Hengchong, Anelka would probably still have to spend his days in the reserves.Of course, with Anelka's character, it may not be long before he strikes and threatens the club to sell him to other teams.And now, on the one hand, Lu Hengchong persuaded Anelka to show his good attitude and state, and persuaded Keegan to forgive Anelka's mistakes.Keegan was not originally a small-bellied person, and he was actually fine after the anger, coupled with seeing Anelka's hard training and hearing Lu Hengchong's persuasion, it was finally decided to let Anelka return to the rotation lineup in tonight's game after the team's forward line was weak for a long time."
Toot!"
With the referee's whistle, the game officially began.Manchester City kicked off first and launched an onslaught from the start.It's a pity that Lu Hengchong is still in poor condition, and he wasted several opportunities in a row, but created a good opportunity for the opponent to counterattack.Manchester City coach Keegan on the sidelines frowned, but in his heart he still secretly expected Lu Hengchong to take a shit luck and score or assist.However, Lu Hengchong did not intend to advance goals or assists in tonight's game, so Keegan is destined to be disappointed tonight."
Ah, Tottenham Hotspur successfully stole the ball at Lu Hengchong's feet and played a simple and quick counter-attack."
Commentator Wang Jianxiang exclaimed, "The ball came to the top of the arc of the Manchester City team's penalty area with three passes and two falls, and shot!"
”I saw Manchester City's young goalkeeper Schmeichel Jr. make a leap to save and firmly hold the ball in his hands."
Don't worry, everyone."
Schmeichel Jr. has been honed by a series of matches, especially after a long conversation with the other party before Seaman's retirement, and his mentality has become more and more stable.At this moment, seeing that his teammates seemed to want to use the home advantage to swallow the opponent in one go, he decisively delayed the game time, so that everyone could relax and not rush to attack, but gave the opponent a chance to take advantage of.The Manchester City players are also professional players, and the eagerness after the opening kick-off, coupled with Schmeichel's shouting, suddenly came to their senses and began to slow down the pace of the game.In the 23rd minute of the game, Manchester City sent a cross from the side, and the Costa Rican striker Wanchope, who received it in the middle, jumped high and hit the goal with a header, but the ball flew out of the goal and flew out of the bottom line."
Hey, it seems that Wanchope's state hasn't fully recovered yet."
Commentator Wang Jianxiang explained, "Otherwise, with his strength, he shouldn't have been so outrageous in his header when almost no one interfered with it just now." ”Guest guest Liu Lu also chimed in: "Yes, now the two players on the forward line of the Manchester City team, Lu Hengchong and Wanchope, seem to be out of shape, and if the Manchester City team wants to score, I am afraid it will have to rely on luck." ”Most of the Chinese fans in front of the TV were looking forward to Lu Hengchong's return to his state at the moment, and after hearing Liu Lu's words, they couldn't help but be secretly worried.When will Lu Hengchong's bad state end?
Will Manchester City be able to beat Tottenham Hotspur tonight and advance to the next round?
Chapter 95 The Wisdom of the Sages Lu Hengchong's state can only be fully recovered in the next round, but there are obviously people in the stands who can't bear his bad state endlessly.'
I don't think there's any need to waste any more time looking at the level of the road, he's not fit to play in a higher team.Even at Manchester City, I think it would be a surprise if he was still a regular at the end of the season. ”La Liga giants Barcelona's scouting director called to report.In fact, he originally only came to Manchester City in England to observe the state of the Dutch super striker Ruud van Nistelrooy in the Manchester United team.Coming here tonight to watch this Manchester City game is a complete coincidence.After all, Barcelona has been sending scouts to observe Lu Hengchong, a young Chinese talent who has risen to prominence this season and firmly dominated the Premier League scorer list for a long time.The results of the report were very satisfactory, and Barcelona are ready to make an offer to Manchester City in this winter transfer window.However, the continuation of Lu Hengchong's ensuing bad form made Barcelona hesitate.Tonight, the general manager of Barcelona suddenly called the scouting supervisor and asked him to go to the scene to personally inspect Lu Hengchong and give Lu Hengchong a final evaluation judgment.As a result, Lu Hengchong's poor form continued, and the head of Barcelona's scouting only watched the game for a while, and decisively decided that there was no need to waste time on Lu Hengchong's body at all.That's why he made this call to Mr.
Barcelona's general manager, who is solely responsible for the transfer."
Well, that's to be expected."
The general manager of Barcelona said, "The reason why I arranged for you to watch the game tonight is to put an end to this matter.In this way, you take the people we sent to observe Lu Hengchong and go to investigate Fanny together.After the inspection, they came back together, and there was no need to observe when Lu Hengchong's state would recover. ”"Well, that's definitely a smart choice."
Barcelona's scouting director praised.After hanging up the phone, Barcelona's scouting director looked at the pitch with disdain and smiled, and left without looking back.Lu Hengchong, who was despised on the field, naturally didn't know what was going on in Barcelona, and at the moment he was still trying to score a goal or an assist with his current poor state to help the team win tonight's game.It's a pity that no matter how hard Lu Hengchong tries, he can't win the applause of the fans in the stands in his current state.All that was left for him was endless boos and scolding."
Go back to your country, don't waste any more starting spots for our Manchester City team!""
Even if you're a descendant of Keegan, I'm going to say: Fuck off, road!"
Although the noisy sound of the stands will not be a clear scolding when it reaches Lu Hengchong's ears, the bursts of boos, especially the huge boos every time Lu Hengchong makes a mistake in passing and receiving the ball, are definitely a clear feeling of how the attitude of the Manchester City fans in the stands towards Lu Hengchong has dropped.Lu Hengchong didn't blame those fans too much, he just hoped that he could grow up as soon as possible and make everyone look at him with admiration.From the self-righteousness of the high school bully at the beginning, to the frustration of self-esteem that was not welcomed after coming to England; From signing with Manchester City, to being demoted two levels in a row, falling from Manchester City's first team to the U17 youth team, he was not welcomed; From the infinite advance ability at the beginning of the season to sweep thousands of troops, see who kills whom, to the last 19 games of sluggish state everyone dislikes......
All this has allowed Lu Hengchong, a 17-year-old Chinese boy, to constantly hone his mind and grow.Perhaps, as the sage Mencius said, "Therefore, the heavens will descend on the people, and they must first suffer their minds, strain their muscles and bones, starve their bodies and skins, empty their bodies, and act chaotically. ”In that way, after accepting the hard work of 19 games, Lu Hengchong has already "gained what he can't"."
Road, come on, I'm waiting for you to shut everyone up with a wonderful performance!"
On the sidelines, Manchester City coach Keegan clasped his hands together and whispered.He saw Lu Hengchong's 6th mistake in this game, but he still chose to trust Lu Hengchong at the moment.Because, since the moment he decided to give up persuading Lu Hengchong to leave the team, he decided to use the second half of the season to bet on whether Lu Hengchong's state could be stimulated again.Maybe the result will be disappointing, but if you don't stick to it, won't you already admit defeat?
When he thinks of the obnoxious philistine face of the Manchester City general manager, Keegan always stubbornly reminds himself that the road will get better, as he did at the start of the season."
Lu Hengchong's state seems to be terrible, Keegan has given him great trust, but if he continues to live up to Keegan's trust, I'm afraid Lu Hengchong's time to play as a starter in Manchester City will be shorter and shorter."
Commentator Wang Jianxiang sighed.Guest guest Liu Lu also echoed: "Yes, the head coaches of foreign teams generally don't have much patience for our domestic players.Keegan was an exception, though, and his support for Lu Hengchong was to the point where even I was surprised.To be honest, if I were the head coach of the Manchester City team, I am afraid that Lu Heng would have rushed to the reserve team to slowly find his form at this moment. ”Commentator Wang Jianxiang nodded and said: "Yes, in fact, letting Lu Hengchong go to the reserve team to find his state can be regarded as a kind of protection for young players like him."
However, at the beginning of the season, Keegan personally announced in front of reporters that he would establish Lu Hengchong as the core player of the team.I think Keegan is also a difficult tiger to ride now. ”Guest guest Liu Lu laughed twice, and said with a gloating look: "It seems that Keegan may need to read the crystallization of the wisdom of our ancient sages, 'quick to do and not to speak', this is the choice of smart people." ”As the two chattered, the game progressed.At the end of the first half, Manchester City drew 0-0 with their opponents.At halftime, Keegan asked Lu Hengchong alone: "How is it?"
”Lu Hengchong knew that this was Keegan wanting to change his rhythm.Nodding his head, he said, "Coach, my state still doesn't seem to be good tonight, let Anelka try it in the second half, right?"
I think he will try to prove himself whenever he has the chance. ”Keegan frowned and said noncommittally, "Okay, I'll replace you in a moment." ”After the start of the second half, Manchester City made substitution adjustments, Lu Hengchong was replaced by Phillips, removed a striker and added a midfielder, trying to control the midfield and completely control the situation.When Lu Hengchong left the field, he didn't forget to applaud around the stands, but apart from the boos, there was no applause in return.After sitting on the empty seat on the bench, Anelka on the side leaned over and asked in a low voice: "Hey, Lu, didn't you say that you mentioned to the coach that I want me to replace you, why is it that kid Phillips?"
”Chapter 96 Anelka Appears "Yes, I told the coach alone, but it seems that he has other ideas. ”Lu Hengchong shrugged.In fact, if Anelka hadn't asked Lu Hengchong to say to Keegan before, Lu Hengchong would not have made such an act that was almost interfering with the head coach's substitution choice.However, if he does not do so, it will be difficult to stabilize Anelka's strong desire to play.Therefore, Lu Hengchong agreed to Anelka and helped him to talk to Keegan about it.And Lu Hengchong did it, but it seems that Keegan, as the head coach of the team, still feels that he has to maintain his absolute majesty in the team."
Hmph, anyway, I said it, if I don't play tonight, I'll strike until the team is willing to let me go."
Anelka whispered angrily.Lu Hengchong knew that Anelka was angry, but he couldn't guarantee that this angry words would become true, so he smiled bitterly and persuaded: "I know you are eager to re-enter the game to prove your strength, but be patient."
Trust me, stay at Manchester City for another season and a half, and then whether you want to leave or stay, you'll win a big contract that you're happy with. ”Anelka smiled disapprovingly, jokingly, "Okay, you better get back to your form as soon as possible."
Free novels bring you joy and joy ---> storyskyline.net
Honestly, if you hadn't saved me and I thought you were a favor, I would have gone to Keegan to put pressure on you to get out of the starting lineup. ”Lu Hengchong nodded and said, "Yes, if there is no special reason, I am afraid that I will not be able to bear the pressure, so I will take the initiative to resign." ”The 19 games in a weakened state are to pay off debts, and if you can't play, then you will be pushed back until you finish it.Lu Hengchong naturally didn't want to push it until the end of the season and still have a headache about it, so he endured the torment in his heart and lasted until now.Every time he was almost unbearable, in addition to reciting Mencius's warning sayings to remind himself, he would also use a large amount of exercise that seriously overdrew his physical strength to force himself not to think about other things.Only after the training is over, when you are almost unconscious and lie in bed after severe physical exhaustion, that is a moment of good time for the mind to enjoy peace."......"
Anelka saw Lu Hengchong's lonely appearance, and felt that the joke he had just made might have been a bit too much, so he simply kept silent and turned his eyes to the middle of the game.Lu Hengchong also sighed, and then returned his gaze to the game.I saw that the Manchester City team at this moment had gradually completely controlled the rhythm of the game by virtue of the advantage of the midfield.It's just a pity that Wan Chope, who is still looking for form after recovering from a serious injury on the front line, doesn't seem to be much higher than Lu Hengchong tonight.In the second half, Manchester City created five good chances for him to shoot, two of which were almost one-on-one chances, but he did not receive anything, and the Manchester City fans, who couldn't find a vent point in the stands, were so angry that the boos and scolding were transferred from Lu Hengchong's body to his Wanchope."
Oops, Wanchope is really not in shape, the opportunity for the empty goal just now, the shot that was close at hand was actually missed.What a pity. ”Commentator Wang Jianxiang sighed.Guest guest Liu Lu commented: "After all, I have been rested for three or four months with a serious injury, and although I scored one as a substitute in the last game, luck accounted for a large proportion."
This game shows how much of an impact injuries can have on a player.In fact, I have always wondered if Lu Hengchong's poor condition is also related to injuries. ”In fact, many Chinese fans in front of the TV have always suspected that Lu Hengchong was injured on the field, so it led to a serious decline in his state.However, from previous media reports, Manchester City coach Keegan has made it clear to reporters that Lu Hengchong does not have any injuries that can affect his appearance.Of course, why Lu Hengchong's bad form has continued, Keegan did not give a clear reason.I just said: the road is still young, we should give him full opportunities and space to grow, I firmly believe that he will be the one who will lead Manchester City to the championship."
Good ball, Manchester City counterattacked quickly, Phillips took the ball past two people, knocked the ball with his heel, and suddenly cut inside."
Commentator Wang Jianxiang suddenly explained loudly.'
With two players in the middle, will Phillips shoot himself or pass to his two team-mates in the middle?
Phillips decisively opted to shoot himself.Even if Wanchope is in excellent form, he will not choose to pass the ball at this time.Because, Phillips knows that if he can't show enough strength and form to prove that he can play the main force, then he can't think of snatching the main position that originally belonged to him in front of McManaman."
Ah, Phillips chose to shoot himself."
Commentator Wang Jianxiang exclaimed, "Hey, it's a pity that the opponent's goalkeeper seems to have been prepared, sealed the goal angle in time, and blocked the ball out of the bottom line with his legs."
Manchester City won a corner in front. ”After the corner, Wanchope leaped high and smashed the ball over the line like an opposition centre-back."
Wanchope's header this time seems to be helping the opponent clear the siege."
Guest guest Liu Lu said with a smile, with a face that was not too big to look at the excitement.Chinese fans are eager for Lu Hengchong and Sun Jihai to perform well, and the second is to hope for Manchester City to win.Seeing Liu Lu ridiculing the only remaining striker on the field of the Manchester City team, some people were immediately dissatisfied."
That old guy in Liulu is a bastard, he doesn't have a backache when he sits and talks all day.People Wan Chope worked so hard, he actually laughed at others, it was really unsympathetic. ”A tough female fan spoke in an online chat room.Seeing that it was a female fan posting, many male fans with so many hormones that they had nowhere to vent were beating drums and cheering, loudly helping female fans denounce Liu Lu.Liu Lu seemed to see the fans' words condemning him in the notebook of the commentator, and he laughed awkwardly twice, and said: "Actually, Wanchope has really worked hard, but it's a pity that he is really not suitable for playing the 1 in the 4-5-1 formation now, maybe, if Anelka plays, the effect will be much better." ”I have to say that Liu Lu can become a guest guest, and he still has some strength.Less than three minutes after his words fell, Manchester City made a substitution, with Anelka coming up and McManaman coming on."
Director Liu's judgment is indeed correct."
Commentator Wang Jianxiang said with a smile, "Manchester City coach Keegan replaced Anelka, who had been in the reserve team, and formed a double striker with Wanchope, making Manchester City's current lineup 4-4-2 again.It seems that the Manchester City team is going to give up the previous game adjustment, and re-use the familiar lineup to find a way to win the opponent before the end of the game, and successfully advance. ”Chapter 97 The ball went into Anelka and Wanchope, if you talk about strength alone, you must not say that the lethality is not enough.But at the moment, the two of them are obviously underestimated because of their own reasons.In the aftermath of the second half, both men were caught in a cycle of going it alone, desperate to prove their mettle, but always missing out on the goal.First, Anelka missed three consecutive shots, including one chance to steal Wanchope, which caused Wanchope to be dissatisfied and began to enter the "finisher" state of not passing.Then, Wanchope took advantage of his good running position to get two good chances in a row, but none of them managed to capitalize on them.Anelka was so impressed with the goal that he angrily yelled at Wanchop, who was not passing, and motioned for the opponent to pass the ball to him.Wanchope used to be jealous of Anelka's status in the team, but now, he doesn't take Anelka very seriously.In the summary of the subsequent games, Wanchope went his own way, still playing the role of a finisher, squandering the chances that Manchester City had created with great difficulty.Anelka, on the other hand, had red eyes, and was so hateful that he almost stepped forward to choke Wanchope's neck to make the other party look good.However, Anelka held back.No way, who made him shoot the anti-aircraft gun several times?
Manchester City coach Keegan on the sidelines shook his head and couldn't help but think of Lu Hengchong again."
Well, it would be nice if the road could be restored."
Keegan sighed softly helplessly.Among the fans in the stands, there were already those who were unhappy with the poor performances of Wanchope and Anelka.Near the end of the game, once the two shot ridiculously off, they began to enjoy the treatment of Lu Hengchong before - boos.As a result, Wanchope and Anelka's mentality is even more urgent, and their state is completely inadequate.In the 86th minute of the game, Manchester City had a chance to fight back quickly.Anelka dribbled past the last defender of the opposition and drove straight in.Manchester City had a rare one-on-one chance.Manchester City fans in the stands were immediately pleasantly surprised, expecting Nicolas Anelka to score the goal and kill their opponents.The opposing goalkeeper naturally couldn't watch Anelka dive the ball into the penalty area and then find a way, so he had no choice but to abandon the goal, spread his arms like an eagle catching a chicken, and rushed forward quickly from left to right, trying to block Anelka's shot angle.Wanchope plugged in at high speed, scurryed from the other side, and raised his arms and shouted for Anelka to pass the ball."
Good ball, Manchester City's one-handed chance, Anelka only needs to cross the ball in the face of the opposing goalkeeper's attack, and Wanchope, who is keeping up, will get an empty goal."
Commentator Wang Jianxiang said excitedly.Everyone was expecting Manchester City to take the opportunity to score the lead goal.However, Anelka noticed a disdainful smile on his lips when he plugged in Wanchope, who signaled his pass.Then he dribbled the ball and made a feint to the right, and then changed direction to the left, trying to pass the opposing goalkeeper and complete the task of scoring an empty goal by himself.It's a pity that the opponent's goalkeeper has a lot of experience in the game, and he couldn't stop the ball at the critical moment, and he was not far from the front of the penalty area, so he simply gritted his teeth and fiercely threw Anelka to the ground."
Toot!"
The referee didn't say anything, and sent the opposing goalkeeper off the field with a red card, and at the same time signaled the team doctor on the sidelines to enter the field as soon as possible to deal with the injury of Anelka, who was lying on the ground and howling."
Heck, although the goalkeeper of Tottenham Hotspur was sent off, giving Manchester City the advantage of the number on the field, but the game time is running out, if this goal is not scored, I am afraid that Manchester City may be forced to draw by their opponents tonight, so that another play-off will be played to determine the final promotion place."
Commentator Wang Jianxiang explained.This FA Cup fourth round match is a winner-or-lose policy.If the winner cannot be decided within regular time, there will be an extra match between the two sides.The home team in the play-offs will change.In other words, if there is an extra game, then the next game will become the home of Tottenham Hotspur.By that time, the situation for Manchester City will probably be even worse.Of course, except for Lu Hengchong, no one else knew that after tonight's game, his state would be fully restored.If you know, you'll understand the mystery.Lu Hengchong on the sidelines showed a nervous look, but he was not worried that the team would not be able to win the opponent tonight, but that he was worried about Anelka's injury.The next game is the 23rd round of the Premier League Manchester City away to Arsenal, Arsenal is currently at the top of the standings, if they can show their best form in that game, beat the opponent, then not only can announce the return of Lu Hengchong as their king, but also can lead the Manchester City team to shorten the points gap with the leader.In the final analysis, deep in Lu Hengchong's heart, he is still eager to help Manchester City win the league title this season."
It's a shame that if Anelka can spot his team-mate Wanchope, who is following at high speed, then a simple cross touch can help his team-mate score the winning goal without difficulty."
Commentator Wang Jianxiang sighed with emotion while watching the replay of the ball with the fans in front of the TV.Guest guest Liu Lu smiled and said: "Anelka and Wanchope are in urgent need of goals to prove their state, just that goal, I'm afraid Anelka will never pass the ball even if he sees Wanchope." ”This statement was echoed by most fans in front of the television.Commentator Wang Jianxiang nodded again and again when he heard this, the professional smile on his face was still the same, but he began to secretly complain about Liu Lu in his heart.Can't I see something so obvious?
I just don't want to point out the rivalry and contradictions between Anelka and Wanchope, Director Liu, even if you are more professional than me, you have to save some face for me, right?"
Toot."
The referee blew the whistle again and signaled to Manchester City to take a set-piece in front.In the second half, the young right-midfielder and young teenager Phillips stood in front of the penalty spot.His footwork in the team is very good, at the moment Lu Hengchong and McManaman are not on the field, and the Manchester City coach Keegan on the sidelines rewarded him with the opportunity to take set-pieces."
Okay, the referee blew the whistle and Phillips ran ......
Shoot vigorously into the far corner of the goal......" commentator Wang Jianxiang retracted the broken thoughts in his heart and explained loudly."
Ah, the ball is in!"
Chapter 98 The Return of the King (Part I) With this wonderful goal from Phillips in the final moments of the game, Manchester City finally defeated Tottenham Hotspur 1-0 at home and qualified for the next round of the FA Cup.After the game, Keegan faced questions from reporters, vaguely expressed his dissatisfaction with the team's lack of strikers, and assured that there would be changes in the next game against league leaders Arsenal.When the reporters heard this, all kinds of ideas came to them.In the newspapers the next day, articles such as "Manchester City coach Keegan is dissatisfied with the team's weak performance and wants to change the lineup" sprung up in the field of vision of Manchester City fans."
Hey, did you hear that, Keegan may be going to change the lineup, and Lu may be adjusted out of the starting lineup."
A Manchester City fan excitedly raised his glass in the bar and announced to the drinkers around him."
Haha, that's great news."
Another guy, who was also obviously a Manchester City fan, shouted, "I've put up with that Chinese kid for a long time, and to be honest, every time I see his poor performance, I feel the urge to shoot him in the head." ”The bar was lively for a while, and the Manchester City fans who were dissatisfied with Lu Hengchong's performance drank the spirits in their glasses while wantonly venting their dissatisfaction with Lu Hengchong.On the other hand, Keegan began to smile wryly after seeing the reporter's report.He did intend to change the formation, but he didn't mean to take Lu Hengchong out of the main lineup.The journalists apparently misrepresented his thinking, which made him hesitate a little.Should you give way and take a break at this time?
Keegan thought that the state of several forwards in the team did not seem to be very good, and Lu Hengchong also promised that he would find his form within three games, so he immediately shook his head, thinking that since he had not taken Lu Hengchong out of the main lineup in so many games before, why couldn't he wait a little longer?
So, when the pre-match press conference was held on the last day of the winter transfer window, the day before the start of the 23rd round of the Premier League, a good show played out."
It's really a shame that Lu is reluctant to join our Arsenal camp, in fact, I am very confident to help a young and talented player like Lu break through the rookie wall and find his best form again."
Arsenal boss Arsene Wenger spoke eloquently at the press conference.It seems that he still has some mind about Lu Hengchong's rejection of Arsenal's invitation.Lu Hengchong also sat on the chair at the pre-match press conference, and had to shrug his shoulders when he heard the words, and gave the other party an apologetic look.But even if Manchester City coach Keegan is dissatisfied with Lu Hengchong's poor state in his heart, Lu Hengchong is still his disciple of Keegan, of course, he can't let the opposing coach say that in front of him.As a result, Keegan suppressed his dissatisfaction with the opponent's coach Arsene Wenger, and said tepidly: "Perhaps, Lu will soon find his form with my help."
I'm sure that day won't be too far away, maybe tomorrow night. ”The reporter's favorite was the smell of gunpowder before the game, and in the report the next day, the words of the coaches of both sides were interpreted and turned into a war of words.Arsene Wenger said: Lu Hengchong will only find himself again when he is here, but Keegan can't.Keegan said unflinchingly: I can do it too!
”
