Absolute Surrender [Football]

Chapter 1: The so-called secret weapon

Allardyce overthrows Manchester United: take three points from Old Trafford. ——The Sun

<<<

In the No.14 round of the Premier League, Blackburn played at home and defeated Aston Villa 2:0.After this campaign, the team climbed to tenth in the standings. When coach Allardyce was asked what preparations the team had made for the next round of hard work, he replied: "Manchester United can't make us fear, Blackburn will be all Take three points."

Thanks to the efforts of the British media, these remarks spread like a virus across Europe and even the world in an instant. Blackburn, a mid-to-lower team in the Premier League, has a wave of presence.

Manchester United's meritorious coach Sir Alex Ferguson has never dared to speak out. Facing provocations, he responded simply and rudely: "Since coaching, many people have said similar things to me. They are all out of class, but I am still here." here."

When Ferguson said so, his "old friend" Professor Wenger refused.

"Ferguson is a bit abnormal, he can't recognize reality."

Chelsea coach Ancelotti also stood up and said: "Blackburn's offensive system is not lost to Manchester United. I believe they can dedicate a great game to the fans. As for Ferguson, he should look up at the top of the standings before talking to the media." Who is sitting there?"

Manchester City is even more unwilling to let go of any opportunity to ridicule their rivals in the same city. The fans are in solidarity with Blackburn, and the head coach is not idle.

"Premier League managers are optimistic about Blackburn." - "Daily Mail"

"It's time for Ferguson to retire, he should go see his brain." - "The Sun"

The British football media can be said to be the most irresponsible. They have always only cared about players' lace news, and they will not hesitate to make fake news for eyeballs. This level is nothing at all.

In fact, they did succeed.

A series of exaggerated reports attracted the attention of the whole of Europe. The fans either joined the fight or watched the show happily. Although Blackburn was mentioned in the words, few people really took them seriously. .

Blackburn's odds of winning Manchester United are at most [-]%.

It's just cannon fodder.

Commentators who are active in the professional football circle have also expressed their opinions, which probably mean the same thing: even Real Madrid and Barcelona dare not say that they will definitely be able to take three points from Old Trafford. will be taught to be human.

The Blackburn coach knows all these remarks. While he "encourages" his players with aggressive methods, he finds the kid who signed before the transfer market closed.

<<<

He was found at the training base of the second team. When Allardyce passed by, the blond boy was training in passing and catching the ball. When the other players were wrapped in down jackets, he was wearing a long-sleeved jersey. The huge contrast made him very eye-catching.

Allardyce thought again of the player profile on his desk.

[Liandel Tang, male, 19 years old, Chinese-English mixed race, 186CM tall, 73KG in weight...]

The seemingly ordinary information began to shine from the serial car accident half a year ago.

Leander's family are all Newcastle fans. More than a year ago, Newcastle fell into a scoring drought due to Michael Owen's injury and was unfortunately relegated after repeated defeats.Leander bought a package ticket to go out with the team, and the team ensured the qualification for promotion two games in advance. The tragic car accident happened on the way back after watching the game in Plymouth.

The cost was a concussion, comminuted fractures in both legs, and... the death of both parents.

Leander nearly faced amputation. The operation saved his life and his legs, but broke the will of the 19-year-old boy. He fell into depression and even had suicidal tendencies in severe cases.

This symptom suddenly improved one month after the operation, and Leander seemed to be a different person. He changed his gloomy image and became cheerful and confident.

In a month, he stood up.

In three months, he fully recovered.

What's more surprising is that after leaving the hospital, Liandel had the idea of ​​wanting to join professional football.

The first choice is of course Newcastle, which has supported for more than ten years.

Although they have suffered relegation and just climbed up from the bottom, Newcastle is still one of the most popular football clubs in the UK. The team respects every young player and does not hesitate to give opportunities, but it will not waste time on such whim fans. body.

Liandel did not even qualify for the trial training, and the information he submitted did not meet Newcastle's selection standards for players.

It's normal to be overwhelmed when encountering such an accident. It's good to be calm and calm, but Leander is even more crazy. He adopted the method of generally casting a net and focusing on fishing. He voted personal information for all the Premier League teams, and specially commented: I Will bring titles to the team and I'm hungry for all the trophies and medals.

It looks very high-end, but it is of no use.

Leander has been a fan for so many years, but he lacks common sense, has little knowledge of the rules, and has absolutely no football skills... Almost everyone asserted that he has no talent and will never become a star in this life. Leander himself did not give up.

Blackburn coach Allardyce saw his information purely by accident. From the perspective of the head coach, there are points worth exploring in the young man. His physical fitness and recovery ability are surprising. The possibility of Iron Guard.

This is the most brilliant choice of Allardyce's coaching career... Few people know that he regretted it at first.

Liandell went to Blackburn for a trial and he was poor, one of the worst of the players on trial.

The assistant coach's brows were tightly frowned, and the head coach's face was very ugly. The ending seemed to be doomed. The players watching from the side shook their heads repeatedly. At first, they felt unsightly, but after watching for a long time, they felt a sense of joy.

"I don't feel tired after going on a rampage for so long, this kid is really good in physical fitness."

"The muscle line is really good. Compared with that brute strength, his coordination is much worse. His movements of passing and receiving the ball look awkward. What's worse is that he can't break through with the ball at all."

"If I had such a face, I would immediately change my career to the entertainment industry. Why would I wrong myself?"

These words were generally recognized, and everyone nodded together.

The basic training is coming to an end, and Liandel's fate seems to be doomed. He kicked a kick towards the goal [-] yards away. He didn't seem to use much force, but the ball distorted and deformed instantly when he kicked it up. , and changed directions many times in the air, shooting towards the unguarded goal with a blast of air.

An exquisite kick!

A stunning goal!

All eyes were on the net that had been shot through, and Allardyce looked at the sleepy-looking young man who was slightly depressed.

"This kid... I signed it."

Ball skills can be trained. This kind of goal like special effects in a movie can't be learned by others. This is a talent!

<<<

Allardyce showed up at the youth team's training ground, and the sluggish players immediately cheered up to [-]%.In order for the coach to better understand the young players, the coach of the youth team temporarily changed the training plan, stopped passing and catching the ball, and switched to group confrontation.

This arrangement had no effect, and Allardyce's eyes were locked on one person from the beginning to the end.

Leander.

The coach of the youth team has good eyesight, and immediately understood what the coach meant, saying: "Don's body is very good, and his speed, explosive power, and endurance are all top-notch, and his skills still need to be honed."

Allardyce nodded, looked at it for a while, and asked, "The next round... What do you think?"

Although they are all head coaches, the youth team can only be said to be Allardyce's assistant. How dare he talk too much about tactical arrangements. After thinking about it, he can only talk about injuries and opponents.

"The difference in player ability is difficult to make up for. Considering that the overall style of the domestic league is relatively rough and more physical confrontation, speed and strength are more important than footwork. We can find a breakthrough here. We play offensive football. If we want to beat the The opponent will face the enemy head-on and destroy them, how to quickly gain an advantage is a crucial step."

"The biggest problem ahead is the injury of Givet and Paterson. According to the latest report, Rooney is very likely to return from injury in this week's game..."

It seems to have said a lot, and the last two sentences are useful.

Manchester United is strong, the entire Premier League, oh no, it should be said that the whole world knows it.

Their skills are indeed no better than Arsenal, and they are considered top in the Premier League.

There are generals like Ferdinand and Vidic in the midfield to form a defense line. Although goalkeeper Van der Sar is 40 years old, he can deal with Blackburn with ease.On the front line, Berbatov fell into a scoring drought and failed to score in ten consecutive games, but Rooney has returned from injury.Portuguese star Nani is in full swing, with nine assists and four goals in the previous [-] league games, his performance is extremely stable... And these are not the biggest advantages of Manchester United. They can become the top of the Premier League, relying on coach Ferguson —Sir Alex Ferguson.

In the view of the coach of the Blackburn youth team, the gap in coaching ability is fatal. Ferguson's on-the-spot command is a must, and Allardyce can't match it anyway.

Of course, I can only think about these words in my heart, and I dare not say them to death.

Allardyce was quite satisfied with his analysis, thought for a while, and said: "Injuries are indeed a big problem, but young players also have advantages. If you want to go further, you can't just rely on one or two people. After the end Let Don come to me, and after three months of hiding, it's time for him to stretch his muscles."

Leander overheard the conversation between the two coaches at a distance of dozens of yards.

I almost forgot to mention that the original owner of this body committed suicide due to severe depression after a series of car accidents, and the impostor was the unlucky guy who was unfortunately killed by his peers—the golden dragon Leander.

He loves fighting, believes in fairness, and maintains order and justice.

It sounds nice to be kind, but in fact it is stubborn and stupid.

Liandel suffered such a catastrophe after living two hundred years old. He thought he was going to see the Dragon God, but he didn't expect to be able to open his eyes.Although his life has been recovered, his domineering appearance has already left him. What's worse, the gems that have been collected for 200 years... all!without!up!

The huge blow left Liandel devastated. He was recovering from his injuries during the World Cup in South Africa. Thanks to the Hercules Cup for helping him find his life goal!Since wealth cannot be obtained by illegal means, professional football is a good choice.In fact, there are better choices. The stubborn golden dragon is only willing to admit the guiding light of the Hercules Cup.

Leander used the dragon soul to temper his body, improving all aspects of his quality by more than three times, turning an ordinary person into a transformed Ultraman, bursting with strength, speed, endurance and balance... all aspects are proud of the football world.With such a body, coupled with innate racial talent, he made rapid progress and thrived at Blackburn.

Of course there are problems.

First of all, I am used to the violent crushing fighting style, and basically have no skills at all.

Secondly, the powerful dragon clan lived alone in caves and fought alone for 200 years. Suddenly he was asked to trust his weak teammates and cooperate well. This really couldn't be done overnight.

Thinking that he will soon be able to represent the team, win games one after another, and win the league Golden Boot soon, Leander is very happy.His eyes were sparkling, and he was full of spirits. He wanted to vent something, and it happened that the ball passed over his head. Leander seized the opportunity to hook the ball out of the air with a backflip, made a slight adjustment, and shot with his foot.

"gooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo!"

"Although Ander's skills are bad, his aim is still so good. This goal is so beautiful!"

"What I want to say is that it's time for him to go to the first team to harm others. If we continue to stay in the youth team, we are very likely to face all goalkeeper injuries..."

Uh……

Hearing this, the team members turned their heads one after another, only to see the substitute goalkeeper of the youth team was gritting his teeth and kneading his shoulders.After Liandel shot, he immediately jumped up to save the ball. Instead of stopping the ball, he bruised his arm instead.

<<<

This group confrontation gave head coach Allardyce a new discovery.

He summed up Leander's three strengths and one trouble.

Although his skills are poor, his luck is very good. He can always grab the ball with various amateur moves. This is one of them.He is born with the smell of a top striker, he is good at capturing opportunities, he is good at shooting, his strength is strong and his trajectory is changeable, this is the second; the third point is found through the daily statistics of the youth team coaches. For months, he could easily complete the seemingly overloaded training content every day, with stable mood and excellent condition.

Even if his understanding is poor, with these three characteristics, he will become a top star sooner or later.But no man is perfect, and such an excellent rookie also has a worrying problem: he plays football too independently.

Leander likes to do it himself, grab it, break it, take it, shoot it... This made the coach of the youth team very worried. After observing for a while, things turned around. The coaching staff discovered a very interesting phenomenon.

Although the young man doesn't like to cooperate with others, he is very grateful. When he plays football, his brain and cerebellum are not idle. Every time he receives a pass from others, he will write down an account, and he will definitely give back before the end!

At first, I thought, whether it was a coincidence or not, this matter was too evil and no one would dare to believe it.

After discussing with several coaches, they started point-to-point observation. Every time there was a group confrontation, someone took a small book to record it on the sidelines, and the results were completely consistent.

They reported to Allardyce, but it was a pity that they didn't choose the right time. The Blackburn coach was busy formulating tactics at the time, so he didn't listen to it at all.This time I heard that Allardyce's expression was stunned. After reading the statistics of the coaching staff, he couldn't help laughing out loud.

Which team does not have a few players alone?Robben is not alone? Ronaldo is not alone?

For this kind of player, the head coach loves and hates it.

Those who can tear apart the opponent's entire line of defense by relying on personal skills are not ordinary people. Most of these people are high-spirited, and they believe in themselves more than passing it on to others.The commentators and the audience always criticize the players from the perspective of God. In fact, the ball only has a short reaction time under their feet. For Yaofeng, they observe more about the angle and distance from the goal, and the position of the opponent's defensive player. And the possibility of kicking.

A striker's intuition is very evil, and hesitation is easy to waste opportunities.

After all, Allardyce is the Premier League coach. Even if he can't be called top, his vision is not low.

He patted the coach of the youth team on the shoulder and said with a smile: "Young people must have such a character! Know how to be grateful!"

It is not easy to change Liandel's style of play, but it is very simple to achieve unity on the scene, as long as other players don't hesitate to pass him the ball!You send one out, and he returns another one, won't it be twisted into a rope?

Allardyce was very satisfied with this conclusion. He gave Liandel a routine lecture in his office. At the beginning, Liandel was a little distracted. After hearing about the illegal deduction of money, he was completely refreshed.The weekly salary has finally risen from 40.00 to [-], and after deducting [-]% of the tax, there is not much left. Still have to deduct money? ! !

"I'll memorize it one by one when I get back, boss, don't worry!"

Leander clenched his hands into fists, swearing in his promise.

As soon as he finished speaking, he was blindsided.

"There are three days to the Manchester United game, you are in the 18-man squad, boy, get ready, don't let me down." As if this level was not enough, Allardyce paused and added, "A goal rewards a goal." A thousand pounds, a hat-trick of ten thousand ... I pay for it."

"This is so embarrassing." The blond young man smiled shyly. Of course, he was just talking about it. At that moment, he had already completed the exchange of pounds and gold in his heart! !

Allardyce handed Leander over to first-team captain Samba.

Samba, full name Christopher Samba, is a Congolese player.

He is 1.9 meters tall and weighs 91 kilograms. He has good physical fitness and strong confrontation ability. He can be called an iron man in the defense.In the previous four seasons, Chris Samba played more than 150 times for the team in all competitions, with almost no major injuries.He has played in [-] of the past [-] league games, and the only time he was absent was due to a red card suspension.In addition, Chris Samba also has a good offensive ability. He has scored two goals this season, which is not easy for a defender.

The most commendable point: He is very loyal to the team and is the confidant of coach Allardyce.

Allardyce asked the black captain to help Liandell integrate into the team, and the time limit was before leaving for Manchester.

At the same time, the British tabloids set off another wave of public opinion. The news of Rooney's return from injury was recognized by Manchester United. Compared with the superstar who was selected for the national team at the age of 17 and participated in two World Cups with England, Blackburn really doesn't have much to offer.The scene was already ugly, and the media still didn't let go. They squatted at the door of the club and asked to interview Rooney, asking him what preparations he had made for the next game and how his state was.

The England star whose hair was getting thinner blinked, followed by a rhetorical question: What special preparations do you think Manchester United needs?

The British media are all good people, and they immediately extracted the deep meaning from the words.

——Manchester United still needs to prepare for playing against a small team like Blackburn?

Superstars are different. Just a word can make news. Rooney was injured for more than two months, and he managed to occupy the headlines of the day just after his return from injury.

"Golden Boy came back from injury, pointed his sword at the Golden Boot halfway, and made bold words to beat Blackburn!" - "Mirror"

"Rooney: There is no Premier League team like Manchester United!" - The Times
