Football: The strongest post-zero generation.

Everyone knows that Ulla is Klopp's wife, but when Klopp said this, it immediately caused boos from everyone in the car, including Buvac. Liverpool staff also started to tease the head coach.

But just as he was laughing and joking, Klopp received a call. After listening to one sentence, his smile froze on his face. "What's going on? Why didn't they find out at the time? Damn it, how long will it take?"

Hearing Klopp's tone was wrong, everyone stopped laughing and sat up straight. After Klopp finished the call, Kravitz came forward and asked, "What happened at the club?"

"Alexander is injured. The team doctor said that he will conservatively need four weeks of treatment." Klopp's face turned ugly and the atmosphere in the car became solemn.

Liverpool's injury list for midfield and backfield players has been growing recently, including central defenders Matip and Gomez, who are both recovering from injuries. After they played in the League Cup and adapted to the game, the team doctor assessed them after the game and believed that they still needed rest.

Together with the previously injured Lovren, Arnold's injury is already the fourth important defender injured by Liverpool this season.

As a result, after Arnold was injured, Liverpool did not have a genuine right-back, and the team had just loaned Clyne to Bournemouth, and there was no mandatory recall clause in the loan contract.

Li Qing of course said no problem, but then he received a piece of news. Manchester City played at home against English League One team Burton in the first round of the League Cup semi-final. Manchester City slaughtered their opponent 9:0 and had already announced their entry into the League Cup final in advance.

As for Klopp as the head coach, he is the absolute hero of Liverpool's revival. The contract renewal of this meritorious coach has always been a topic of concern for fans.

But in this game, Manchester City almost had all its main players on the field, including Gundogan, David Silva, De Bruyne, Mahrez, Sane, Bernardo and Jesus.

"Or you can let Li try to make a guest appearance." Milner suddenly said this at this time, attracting countless people's attention.

However, these are not the topics that Li Qing cares about. He only cares about the bet with Klopp. It happened that he had signed a new contract, so Li Qing would definitely calculate this bet based on his weekly salary of his new contract. That is more than one million euros, which is definitely a huge loss!

De Bruyne, Jesus, Zinchenko, Mahrez and others all scored goals. It is worth mentioning that young players such as Foden and Walker also scored as substitutes.

After all, Klopp's annual salary is lower than Emery of Arsenal and even Solskjaer who just joined Manchester United, so the club offered Klopp a big contract this time. It is rumored that Klopp's new contract has an annual salary of 1800 million euros.

In the entire Liverpool team, only Li Qing enjoys such treatment. Milner certainly cannot enjoy this treatment.

Li Qing glanced at Milner indifferently, smiled slightly and said nothing. Everyone's expressions became strange, but no one agreed.

Upon hearing the news, Li Qing smiled evilly. After defeating Manchester City in early January, he originally thought that he would not play against Manchester City again this season, but he did not expect that his opponent in the League Cup final would be Manchester City.

Once Arnold's injury is confirmed, he will not be able to play not only in the next round of the game against Crystal Palace, but also in the subsequent games against Leicester City, West Ham United and Bournemouth.

Within Liverpool, if they win the Premier League, the first-team players will be able to share a bonus of £400 million, and if they win the Champions League, this number will almost double.

Li Qing had no way to deal with this, so he could only think of a solution from another aspect. After all, Curtis and others were his good friends in the youth team, and fighting for benefits for his friends was of course what he was most willing to do.

Klopp was not stingy about this, but he definitely bargained with Li Qing. Both sides finally made concessions and still used Klopp's previous contract salary as the basis. Klopp paid 400,000 euros out of his own pocket as a winning bonus for the League Cup.

"Uh, ah?" Milner's expression suddenly fell when he heard this. He didn't expect to shoot himself in the foot.

Klopp just received another bad news, that is, Wijnaldum will definitely not be able to play in the next round of the league due to a recurrence of his knee injury. This has caused great trouble for Klopp in his lineup.

After returning to Liverpool, Li Qing learned a few more things. The club had renewed contracts with Arnold and Klopp respectively.

Renewing the contract with Arnold is purely to tie the player down. After all, there is a shortage of good defenders all over Europe. How can Liverpool not take seriously a player like Arnold who can guarantee the team's right-back position for the next ten years?

Now that Milner is getting older, he has been able to win a place in the Liverpool team thanks to his own efforts, so he is known as a jack of all trades in the midfield and backcourt of Liverpool.

Therefore, the small prize money from domestic cup competitions did not receive the attention of club owners and senior management, and the youth team members who did not have to pay additional winning bonuses became the main members of the League Cup and FA Cup.

But there is no other way. Now there is no one at right back, so Milner has to play. As the team's main striker, even Klopp will not force Li Qing to play as a defender unless he proposes.

The reason for this title is that Milner can play any position in the middle or backcourt, but at the same time everyone knows that this is a helpless move for a player who is on the decline. The position Milner really likes to play is in the midfield.

However, Klopp put forward a new request. If Li Qing can lead the team to successfully defend the title in the next home semi-final against Tottenham and the final, he will talk to the club and give bonus compensation to the youth team.

Therefore, there are only two solutions to the current situation. One is to find a way to tap the potential of the existing personnel. Milner can make a cameo appearance. Camacho and Howewell from the youth team are both candidates for right back, but the latter are too young.

Klopp's face became even uglier, and he glared at Milner fiercely, "James, you play as right back in the next game."

The reason why Li Qing was so enthusiastic was because he knew that the youth team players in this game would not receive any rewards for winning the game, as there were no relevant clauses in the contracts of anyone on the youth team.

If at that time I lead a group of substitute players to play against Manchester City, which is full of main players, and finally step on the corpses of my opponents and climb onto the podium under the desperate gaze of Guardiola, it will definitely feel great.

When he thought of this, the smile on Li Qing's face became even more intense.
