Chapter 918 Double Red Meeting II

Back in the locker room, everyone’s passion is still burning. Pogba, who won the best player in this round of the game, is excited to open the champagne as a prize under the cheers of everyone——

Li Liang quickly stood up and held Pogba's hands tightly: "Listen to me Paul!

It's not time to celebrate yet! "

Pogba calmed down, shook his head and said: "Sorry everyone, I'm so excited!"

Magic Bird clapped his hands vigorously to signal everyone to be quiet: "Guys, this is how many times have we reversed (this season)?!"

Everyone immediately recalled: "The second time!"

"No third time!"

"Draws at Anfield and at the Allianz Arena should count too!"

Magic Bird waved his hand again and asked everyone to be quiet: "Well, that's not the point—"

He turned to Pogba: "Paul, what do you think this means?!"

Pogba yelled: "It means that we don't need anyone to be inferior, and no one can easily beat us?!"

Many people have noticed that Li Liang, who is sitting by the side, has already frowned.

Magic Bird turned to Li Liang again: "Li, what do you think?"

Li Liang raised his head and replied clearly: "I don't think this is a good thing!
At least it shows that we can't get into the state quickly in the opening stage of those important games!
From now on, we will face stronger opponents, not every time we will be so lucky!
If we want to go further, we must make a change! "

……

Watching Magic Bird and Li Liang leave the locker room to attend the post-match press conference, Lukaku said softly to Pogba: "Paul, I just realized that Li is really a natural captain!"

Pogba replied: "I already found out!"

At the press conference, Li Liang said calmly: "Manchester City is the best team now, and Liverpool, their performance is very strong recently!

Bayern is also one of the best teams we have ever played against and we will do our best to prepare. "

At the end of the press conference, Hodgson was full of praise for Manchester United's performance: "... If they can continue the performance in the second half of today's game, I believe they may be the only team in England that can stop Manchester City..."

In addition, all reporters are asking questions around the upcoming Clasico.

……

Back in Manchester, various posters and promotional posters of the Double Red Club can be seen everywhere. Whenever a fan meets Li Liang and his teammates, in addition to signing a group photo, everyone will firmly shout: "Beat Liverpool!"

In the pre-match tactical class, Mourinho once again explained and arranged in person. He set a very clear tone. Even if Bayern will welcome Bayern at home three days after the double red meeting, he will try his best to win Liverpool. !

Every training session Magic Bird also personally supervised the whole process, and the team members also seemed much more serious than usual.

It reminded Li Liang of the frenetic, war-like atmosphere he felt at Anfield.

In a private exchange, Magic Bird asked: "Li, what do you think is the difference between us now and when we were at Anfield?!"

Li Liang replied frankly: "Now we are really stronger and more like a whole—"

Magic Bird nodded: "Yes, not just you, everyone has grown a lot since the beginning of the season!

Paul, Romelu (Lukaku) and Jesse (Lingard) have become stronger!
I was also surprised by how quickly Alexis fit in..."

Li Liang replied: "Jose, not only us, I believe Liverpool, Manchester City and Bayern have also become stronger!
We have to play better than ever to keep winning..."

After Li Liang left, Faria came to Magic Bird's office: "How is it?"

A smile slowly appeared on Magic Bird's face: "We don't have to worry about Li at all, he is fully prepared!"

……

Back at the hotel, all the acquaintances I met were saying to Li Liang: "For Manchester, we must win, beat Liverpool!"

After entering the room, the national derby was also playing on the TV, and even Xiao Yu seemed a little excited: "Brother Liangzi, almost everyone on the street is talking about this game!"

Li Liang smiled and said: "Yes.

In Manchester, you either want us to win or you want Liverpool to win, depending on whether you meet Manchester United or Manchester City fans. "

The two started chatting during dinner time, Xiao Yu smiled and said, "Okay, now the truth or dare - the secret press conference begins!
I ask you to answer, you must ask and answer quickly! "

Li Liang immediately sat up straight: "Yes!"

"Can you beat Liverpool?"

"can!"

"Can you score a goal?"

"can!"

"How many goals can you win?"

"At least 1!"

"What's the key to victory?"

"Focus and Goals First!"

……

After playing around for a while, Li Liang became serious: "Xiao Yu, this competition may actually be much more difficult than we imagined!
Klopp's team has a strong running ability and a particularly fierce attack, but our defense is still a little unstable. "

Xiao Yu tilted her head: "Yeah, now everyone says you're picturesque in the frontcourt and De Gea in the backcourt"!
He also said that you, like Liverpool, have a 'rear team', which is designed to cheat the goalkeeper's clean goal bonus! "

Li Liang laughed loudly: "This saying has been around for several years!"

As he spoke, he became serious: "When I first came here, I was struggling to adapt, the pace of offense and defense in the Premier League is really too fast!
Compared with when I was in Monaco, it is a completely different concept.

One or two games is okay. If you want to cover the whole game in every game, few people except Chelsea's Kanter can do it!

So Mourinho asked me to concentrate on the frontcourt offense, but to be honest, the midfield and backcourt, especially the transition from defense to offense, is really not ideal! "

Xiao Yu rested her chin on her hands, and even though she had known him for a long time, Li Liang's focused look still made her heart flutter: "Brother Liangzi, I think everyone said that your two full-backs have fallen too badly, and you are missing a ball. Midfielder—"

Li Liang replied: "Yes, our whole team thinks so too.

Ashley Young and Valencia are both converted from midfielders to guards. Paul is actually an offensive style of play, so when we play against strong teams, we always start to get beaten at the beginning, and every time we adjust and slow down Strength is better. "

Xiao Yu pursed her lips and said, "Then why did you adjust without opening?"

Li Liang couldn't help laughing: "You are stupid, my dear Xiao Yu!
Regardless of how they play, what tactics they play, how the core players move, how do we adjust? "

Xiao Yu said unconvinced: "Then I'm wondering, why last time when Manchester City beat you, there were also games between you and Liverpool, Chelsea, and yes, Bayern. Take the initiative with you first?
Why don't people observe first and then adjust? !
……Um?are you listening to me
...Brother Liangzi, what's the matter with you?
...Did I say something wrong? "
