Green Dragon

Chapter 700 The Red Wave

2016 5 Month 23 Day.

On this day, the city of Liverpool became a sea of ​​red.

No, the whole of Merseyside was dyed red.

Even the highway from London to Liverpool is full of fiery colors.

Those fanatical fans really drove the two buses that surrounded the Liverpool Club and walked a distance of 340 kilometers!
This is the road to champions!

It's the way to celebrate!

340 kilometers, the singing of the fans has not stopped from the beginning to the end!
This is the song of victory!
It is a song of extreme joy!
-
It's a pity that the mayor of Liverpool is an Everton fan, otherwise the celebration atmosphere in the whole city would have been even stronger.

Even so, when Liverpool's bus drove into the city, this ancient and slightly dilapidated port city still erupted with unimaginable sounds!
The staff of the club immediately dispatched two more celebratory buses, and also sent the remaining three trophies of this season.

More than 20 players, more than 20 coaches and members of the medical team, as well as staff at important positions in the club took four buses and started a parade around the city for a week.

In order not to keep the fans from waiting too much, the Red Army officers and soldiers could only eat a little fast food in advance. Even Long Shute, who has always attached great importance to healthy eating, had to frown and ate two hamburgers—otherwise he was worried about himself. Because of starvation fainted, and then fell directly from the roof of the car...

As the captain, Long Shute is of course holding the most important Premier League championship trophy. The vice-captain Henderson in the second car is holding the Europa League. The third captain and locker room peacemaker Lucas Holding the FA Cup high, the least valuable League Cup was handed over to Coutinho, the second core on the offensive end.

Of course, it is impossible for the four of them to hold the trophy high all the time, and other teammates have to take turns to taste this honor.

The city of Liverpool is not that big, but it is at least the size of a county with a population of 50. It takes two hours for a bus to go around slowly at a speed of 20 yards, not to mention in an area where many fans gather. They also have to stop and interact with the fans.

When the four buses arrived at Anfield surrounded by the crowd, the sun had already begun to sink, and the lights in the stadium reflected the scene like daytime.

The staff of the club had already built a gaudy stage on the turf, surrounded by two burning holy flames...

Long Shute led his teammates into the stadium, and placed the four trophies of the Premier League champion, Europa League champion, FA Cup champion, and League Cup champion on the honor platform above the stage in turn.

Of course, every time the four of them took the stage, they had to raise the trophy again, and then attracted the fans to another climax! -
"The 2015-16 season has just come to an end and it will be a day to remember forever for everyone in Liverpool."

As the spokesperson of Long Shute at the club, Tom Johnson, the general manager of Liverpool Club, was the first to speak:
"I am 47 years old this year, and my son is 18 years old this year. One day 8 years ago, the 10-year-old boy suddenly asked me, Daddy, why do we want to be Liverpool fans? Apart from Istanbul, Liverpool once有什么值得去爱？那一天我没有说话，只是在喝完一瓶闷酒后狠狠地揍了他一顿，在这里，我向他再一次道歉，同时，我希望人权主义组织不要来起诉I."

Many fans in the stands smiled knowingly, but only they knew the bitterness in the smiles.

After winning the Champions League in 2005, Liverpool also won the FA Cup in 2006, but that was the last glory of this team.

They are still struggling in the endless cycle of tearing down, rebuilding, tearing down, rebuilding, buying, and buying again, while Chelsea, Manchester City, and even Tottenham have risen rapidly. Liverpool has not only failed to get the top four in several seasons Champions League qualification, and even ranked seventh and eighth from time to time!
Since 2006, Liverpool has won the second place twice, the third place once, the fourth place once, the sixth place twice, the seventh place twice, the eighth place twice in ten years...

In ten years, I only participated in five UEFA Champions Leagues, one of which was kicked back to my hometown after only playing in the qualifying round, and I was eliminated in the group stage in two years, and in addition... there are two seasons that even qualified for the Europa League nothing!
If you tell others... this is the biggest club in English football, it will only make Manchester United, Chelsea, Manchester City, and even Arsenal laugh out loud!

"I can only tell him that your father is a Liverpool fan, your grandpa is also a Liverpool fan, your grandpa's father and grandpa's grandpa are both Liverpool fans, if you are not a Liverpool fan, how else can you choose?!"

Johnson was still speaking.

He is not an entrepreneur with a deep background, but a vice president of Shankly Spirit, the largest Liverpool fans association, but his job is a middle-level manager of a top 100 company in England. The management has good experience, and they also have deep feelings for the Liverpool team.

He may not be the best at investing and making money, nor is he the best at football, but from two aspects, maybe...he is the most suitable for the current Liverpool team.

What's more, he also has the support and support of countless fans.

"Old fans of our generation, even if the team's performance is sluggish, they will not easily change the home team, but the times are developing after all. It is a pity that... today's young people will only follow those stars. Great team. Sometimes, I really can't explain to them why we support Liverpool, a small team that doesn't even qualify for the Champions League..."

Under normal circumstances, the speeches of the top executives of any business or organization would be disgusting, but Johnson won the quiet listening of the fans in the audience, because what he said was not clichés, but the inner fluctuations of a Liverpool fan:
"I'm sorry, these words were too heavy just now, what I want to say is... from today, we can finally say goodbye to these heavy things, and we can proudly and proudly raise the middle finger to those young fans, and then yelled:
'We're champions, who the fuck are you? '"
-
Amidst the thunderous applause, Johnson bowed slightly to the surrounding stands, and then handed the microphone to the head coach.

Rogers' cheeks flushed with excitement.

I am under the general manager, and I am the master of this club under one person and over ten thousand people!
"When I accepted the offer from Liverpool FC in the summer of 2012, I knew it would be a difficult challenge that I couldn't refuse.

But I took the job without hesitation because I knew very well what a great club this is.

In the past four seasons, we have experienced many ups and downs together. There are regrets of falling short and being runner-up. There is also the helplessness of returning to the Champions League but being eliminated miserably. There is also the joy of consecutive victories and victory over opponents...

But competitive sport, like everything in this world, has its cruel and realistic side. If there are no results, then no one will remember those victories and joys. Everyone will only remember... Ah, Liverpool has no championship.

Yes, in my coaching career, I have not won a championship before 2015. I have been called a waste coach by countless people. Fans of Manchester United and Everton even commented on the Internet, calling on the entire Premier League to save me. Brendan Rodgers' position...

Being ridiculed by the fans of my arch-enemy is definitely the most humiliating moment in my life! "

Rogers was clearly emotional, too:

"But I didn't give up, and neither did Liverpool. God is finally on our side. The four heavy championship trophies are bound to become the most glorious moment for Liverpool in the past ten years!"

He even sang the team anthem:
"At this moment, we go through the wind, through the rain, maybe our ideals are disillusioned, our dreams are ridiculed, but we also have hope and keep going... because we know that Liverpool people will never walk alone!"

The applause was still thunderous, but Rogers did not immediately hand over the microphone to the next one:
"As a manager, I need to make the players feel fair and just, so I rarely praise a player alone during the season, but now that the season is over, I can praise him."

He smiled and glanced at Captain Long who was waiting to speak:

"Ah...sorry, right now, my mind is so full of wild joy that I can't even think of how to praise him, but I think, even if you take all the compliments in the world All the words used to praise the characters are not enough to express my feelings!

All I can say is that unless you tie Ronaldo, Messi, Maradona, Pele, George Best together and exchange with me, I will think about it for a second, yes, for a second, and then, I will reject you once again! "

Compared with the warmer applause just now, Liverpool fans discovered for the first time that this head coach has the ability to tell jokes...

The microphone was finally handed over to the captain of the team.

Long Shute looked at the word count, and it was almost 3000 words.

In today's fast-paced era, the scene where the protagonist makes his final appearance has long been out of fashion!
"When I became an official professional player, this season was undoubtedly the most difficult season I played. Although we scored a lot of goals, we were still unable to open the gap with our competitors until the 37th round. won the league championship.

98 points, 95 individual goals, I will not be satisfied, let alone stop, next season, you will see a more powerful Long Shute, and you will also see an even more invincible Liverpool!Do you... believe my words? "

Captain Long put his left hand behind his ear, and pointed the microphone at the stands with his right hand.

A chorus of chorus roared loudly from the stands:

"YES!"

Long Shute remembered his teacher, so he put on a show:
"What are you talking about? I didn't hear it!"

More than 5 fans almost suffocated their lungs, and once again roared out with all their strength:

"YES!!!"

"YES, OK, I hear your voices."

Boss Long nodded contentedly, standing in the middle of the field, he even felt a strong tinnitus:

After calming down a bit, he calmly spoke again:
"When I first joined the team last summer, I heard a lot of voices who doubted whether I could return to the top, and even more doubted whether I could lead Liverpool to a revival.

To be honest, I was a little worried myself.

I was worried that I would not be able to return to my previous state after a serious injury, and I was even more worried that my rhetoric at the beginning of the season would become the laughing stock of others.

Fortunately... my worries are always superfluous. We have won all the championships we can win this season, and even completed the league trophy that we most desire to touch in 26 years. I did not let my promise to the fans become empty talk.

But... are you satisfied? "

Long Shute in the camera smiled:

"After 26 years of lingering in the desert without a championship, will you be satisfied with a mere league championship?"

He shook his head:
"No! Liverpool will not let go of any champion!
bring it on!Come with me and witness the dynasty that belongs to Liverpool!
The red wave...is about to sweep the world! "
