Chapter 157 New Number
That was a few days ago, on August 8, the first leg of the Champions League play-offs.

Lazio is playing against Bundesliga powerhouse Leverkusen at home. Facing such a strong enemy, the Blue Eagles will of course do their best.

Klose, who started the game, was off due to injury after 60 minutes of playing. The young player Keita, who came off the bench, used a barb that shocked everyone to help the team beat the pharmaceutical factory 1-0. In the two-round contest Occupied no small advantage.

But after the game, Klose was determined to have a torn muscle. It would take ten days to receive treatment and one month to recover from the injury. Considering that he is 37 years old, this time may take longer.

Originally Lazio wanted to pursue AC Milan's fringe striker Matri as a replacement for Old K, but now with Lu Feng, Ma Dayan is obviously not worth their consideration.

"Boom!"

There was only a muffled sound, and a figure flashed past the crowd, and then the football went straight to the net, stirring up a white spray.

Lu Feng who landed clenched his fists and celebrated a little.

In this group match, he scored his first goal after joining Lazio!
And... didn't use 【Endless Restraint】!
"It smells good."

Pioli nodded.

Technical coach David Lucarelli was quick to record his assessment of the new arrivals:

"Although his size is not dominant, he is very flexible, and he is one step faster in judging the placement of the cross ball than the average person. Coupled with his excellent jumping ability, he is indeed a big killer in set ball..."

Pioli agrees:
"It seems that at least our set-piece tactics really need to be changed, and he can take on Klose's role in set-piece tactics."

Assistant coach Jocomo Murelli chimed in:

"By the way, Stefano, what number do you want to give him?"

Pioli glanced at the assistant:
"Isn't it your job to do such small things?"
-
"Call..."

Lu Feng let out a breath of hot air, and stopped in his tracks.

This confrontation training is over, he completed a hat-trick when he came off the bench, and let the coach and teammates get a preliminary understanding of his characteristics.

At the same time, he also understood the characteristics of his teammates.

Although Klose and the other two main players are absent due to injuries, Lu Feng has already felt that there is a big difference between Lazio, Sporting Lisbon and Liverpool.

Both Sporting Lisbon and Liverpool are teams that value defensive counterattacks and have very demanding running requirements. In contrast, Lazio's training...is like walking in a nursing home.

He doesn't even need to activate any skills, he can pass the entire back line in a row!

There is no other way. Among the four main defenders, apart from De Vrij, who is a young man in 92, Basta, Gentileti, Radu... are all 85-year-old veterans born before [-]!

The style of the Italian team is the same as the character of the whole country. They like a slow pace, but this does not prevent this country from producing the famous "chain defense", and the birth of Maldini, Baresi, Nesta Top defensive masters like Cannavaro and Cannavaro - and the Serie A league at its peak was also the most defensive league. "White Swan" Van Basten and "Alien" Ronaldo have all played in this cruel battlefield. Knocked down by injuries.

Of course, Lu Feng was able to wreak havoc so easily. On the one hand, it was because he was new here and his teammates gave him some face. On the other hand... it was also because of too many injuries recently, and no one wanted to cause accidents during team training. Downsizing...

But even so, after seeing Lu Feng put on the hat so easily, everyone has to admit that his offensive ability can definitely get a starting position in Lazio.

Then the question came, Lu Feng started, the previous starting lineup...who will be the substitute?
-
"Today's training is here. At two o'clock in the afternoon, we will fly to Germany to prepare for the second round of the game, so we must pay more attention today. Those who go home to eat should pay more attention to housework such as washing dishes and sweeping the floor. , Try to leave it to your wife or girlfriend to do it, we can no longer reduce staff due to injuries!"

Assistant coach Murelli's speech made the players smile in relief.

But what he said next made several people worry.

I saw him beckoning to Lu Feng:

"Lu, the club will report to the squad soon. Your jersey number has not been confirmed yet. I don't know which one you like?"

Lu Feng didn't think too much about it:

"How about number 10?"

This is the number of the main striker, and it is not an exaggeration for him to make such a request.

Murelli hesitated for a moment, then looked at the main player of the team:

"That's Anderson's number..."

Felipe Anderson, 22, shook his lips. As a Brazilian player, his position in the team is not secure.

Facing the aggressive Europa League MVP and World Youth Championship MVP who wanted to snatch the No. 10 jersey, he sadly found that he really did not have the capital to compete with them.

"Coach, I can..."

But just as he opened his mouth, he saw the new teammate wave his hand:

"What about the 11th?"

Murelli coughed:
"That's Milo Klose..."

Lu Feng whistled:
"Okay, number seven?"

As a winger, it is normal for him to wear No. 7 or No. 11.

But Murelli shook his head:

"Uh... the new Morrison just picked the number..."

The young midfielder from England struggled as much as Anderson, but fortunately Lu Feng still changed his goal:
"How about number 18? That's my number at my old club."

The number called was the main defender Gentileti. This 30-year-old Argentine veteran was much more optimistic than Anderson. He was about to take the initiative to "abdicate to the virtuous" when Lu Feng shook his head again:
"Then... what about number 8?"

Lu Feng's characteristics have nothing to do with number 8. This number is of course a tribute to that man.

Murelli glanced at the main full-back Basta, and Lu Feng immediately changed his words again:
"What about the 22th?"

The representative of No. 22 is of course Kaka, the former prince of Milan.

This time no one stood up to give up the number, but Murelli was still in a dilemma:

"That's the number of the main goalkeeper Marchetti, who was also injured in the previous game..."

Lu Feng shook his head speechlessly. He didn't want to compete for a number while his teammates were injured. Wouldn't it be too bullying to spread the word like this?

He suddenly asked:
"Marchetti is number 22, what about... number 1?"

Murelli couldn't help but startled:
"There is no one here... But, are you sure you really want this number?"

Lu Feng shrugged his shoulders:

"Is there a rule that No. 1 must be the goalkeeper?"

No, that's just the inertial thinking of fans!

--Remark:
The "Rules for the 2018 World Cup in Russia" issued by FIFA stipulates that the No. 1 jersey must be reserved for the goalkeeper, but Serie A and the Champions League are not involved.
-
"The number for the new season is confirmed! Lu Feng will wear the No. 1 jersey to go to Serie A!"

CCTV reporter Yang Zhiyuan got the news immediately. He first posted a serious report stating the facts, and then changed the title on his personal Weibo:
"The sword points to No.1! The king of China publicly expresses his ambition!"

His reports were quickly reprinted by major media and self-media, and then formed reports with different styles and different attitudes:
"Authoritative insider! In-depth analysis of Lu Feng's status in the Lazio team from the jersey number of the new season."

"Professional interpretation! Those great No. 1 players in football history."

"Shocked! Super shooter Lu Feng switched to goalkeeper!"

"Blue Eagle secrets! Lu Feng applied for 6 numbers, all of which were taken by his teammates!"

"Just out of the tiger's den, and then into the wolf's den? Lu Feng is suspected of being excluded from the locker room!"

"Urgent dispatch! The Chinese Football Association sent a special person to Italy to dissuade Lu Feng from turning around!"

"The country's loss! Chinese football can live without a goalkeeper, but not without a striker!"

"Chinese fans don't need to stay up all night! Lu Feng is not selected for the starting list of the key match of the Champions League!"

"Pioli's biggest stupid trick in his life! Leverkusen's home court may become the hell of the Blue Eagles!"

……

But Lu Feng didn't have the time to read these meaningless articles.

After eating the lunch provided by the club, he followed the team directly to the charter flight to Germany.

After 36 hours, they will start the second round of the Champions League play-offs!
