Chapter 243 Mr. Selection

Entering November, Arsenal once again demonstrated a strong combat effectiveness.

With consecutive victories, the Champions League and the league went hand in hand, and the League Cup also reached the quarter-finals.

The Champions League successfully advanced to the second round of the group stage, with Ajax, Valencia and Roma in a group.

After Lin Lian won the fourth Asian Footballer of the Year and announced his withdrawal from the next year's selection, his reputation rose instead of falling, and Lin Lian was discussed everywhere.

"The player who changed the rules of Asian football - Lin Lian," Germany's "Kicker" commented.

"L'Equipe" and "French Football" directly promoted Lin Lian to a higher position, "I have to say that Lin Lian is the top player, and it is really embarrassing to compete for the Asian award!"

"Lin Lian carried China forward, and he has changed the history of football. The first is the rookie award selection, and the second is the Asian Footballer selection, all because he changed the rules, a great player." "Sky Sports" also did homework .

It's a pity that Lin Lian's limelight suddenly stopped. When he entered December, he was injured. He pulled his thigh in the Champions League against Rome. After the diagnosis, he had to rest for at least one month to one and a half months.

Bad luck. Although the team won, Lin Lian had to miss many games. This time period happened to be the time when the Christmas Express started. By the end of January, when he came back, he had played at least 1 games in the league.

Moreover, the first game he was injured was away against Manchester United.Then Arsenal really lost, losing 0:2 to their old enemy in the away game, and could only watch their opponents narrow the points gap to 3 points.

In the UEFA Champions League match in mid-December, Arsenal challenged Valencia away and drew with their opponents, casting a shadow over qualifying for the group stage.

"Without Lin Lian, it seems that Arsenal don't know how to play football. Where do they go?"

"Arsenal's recent record shows the role of Lin Lian from the side. He is too important to Arsenal and is definitely the core of Arsenal."

In the next two league games, Arsenal scored two draws and were directly reversed by Manchester United.Henry and Pires failed to carry the team, Kanu and others on the bench also couldn't help the team well.

Zahavi was in a great mood, "The news has been finalized, you are this year's World Footballer of the Year winner. This is the pioneering work of Chinese players, and you have created a new history."

"Moreover, you won the treble on behalf of Leverkusen in the past year, and you also had a wonderful performance at Arsenal. Fans all over the world are watching. Your score is the highest."

"As long as the awards haven't been awarded, everything is uncertain," Lin Lian pretended to be aggressive.

At the end of December, Lin Lian was invited to participate in the World Footballer Award Ceremony.Asked for leave with the team, accompanied by Arsenal chairman Peter Hill Wood, went to the FIFA headquarters in Zurich, Switzerland.

Hillwood is not young anymore, he has been the chairman of the club for decades, he is in good spirits at the moment, and has been chatting with Lin Lian, "If you win the World Footballer award, you will become the first player in Arsenal's history to win the World Cup. Footballer's player."

"You created the history of Arsenal. Next year, the groundbreaking ceremony of the new stadium, you have to come to build the soil!"

"No problem." Lin Lian sat down in his formal attire and was in a good mood.

The nearby coaches came to say hello one after another. Wenger didn't show up, but Ferguson did. When he saw Lin Lian, he kept smiling, like an elder at home.

There are also several coaches in Serie A who have a good impression of Lin Lian. Yinhu Lippi, the good guy Ancelotti, and the not-so-familiar Bosque also took the initiative to exchange a few words with Lin Lian.

Unexpectedly, Mancini also arrived at the scene. He approached Lin Lian, and it was still a matter of the national football team being a coach. "It is a huge challenge for me to coach the China National Football Team, but if you are here, I will agree."

"That's great, I will discuss with the Football Association. I invite you to become the head coach of the China National Football Team. Of course, if you want to coach the club at the same time, it is not impossible."

Mancini is not a top-level coach, but he is a pure Italian coach. He has good defensive skills, and he also played brilliantly in counterattack. year world cup.

"Okay, looking forward to your news." Mancini hugged Lin Lian again.He also hopes to coach Lin Lian, which is something that many coaches are eager to do. "First of all, I wish you the best football player in the world."

"Thank you, you can't talk nonsense about things that haven't been settled yet." Lin Lian smiled. He has a good relationship with Mancini and can joke around.

In fact, Lin Lian is not without competitors. Ronaldo is the biggest competitor. Although he has not made much achievements at the club level, he led the Brazilian national team to win the World Cup. This is his biggest card.

Moreover, there are players like Carlos and Kahn who also have good results.

It's just that Lin Lian's grades are so eye-catching, so eye-catching that no one can compete with him.

At the club level, he led Leverkusen to win the first triple crown in Bundesliga history, allowing Leverkusen to completely secure its position as a giant.In Arsenal, they took the leadership in the shortest time, and went hand in hand in the league and the Champions League. Now they have scored 7 goals in the Champions League and 15 goals in the league, ranking first in the scorer list.

At the level of the national team, he led China, which entered the World Cup for the first time, to win the third place, completing an impossible task. Moreover, he defeated the South Korean team that eliminated Portugal, Italy and Spain in the finals of the third and fourth place, which made the European media feel the same. He looked at it with admiration.

With a record 15 goals, he won the World Cup Golden Boot and incidentally won the World Cup Golden Globe.

All of these are the great achievements of Lin Lian, who else can compare?
In the simple and boring awards ceremony, where various awards were handed out, Lin Lian behaved naturally without any inner fluctuations.

For the best goal, Lin Lian stepped onto the stage and received the award.Well, when he faced Brazil in the World Cup, he won the goal of the year for his ultra-long-range shot in the opening game.Keep embarrassing Brazil...

The last award is the World Footballer's trophy. When the host announced, Lin Lian stood up generously, dressed in the clothes provided by the sponsor, leading the fashion.

He strode onto the stage, took the award from Blatter, and faced the camera, "Thank you everyone! I accidentally created a new history."

At this time, Lin Lian's wonderful performance was playing back on the big screen.Leverkusen's red, Arsenal's red, and China's red and white jerseys.

The scene was full of excitement. No one knew how much Lin Lian had suffered, but seeing his countless wonderful performances and carrying the team forward countless times, everyone was moved.

Fans far away in China burst into tears.

"He is my idol, super idol!"

"In this life, I only practice one player, and I love him."
