"Based on ha's performance on the just-concluded international match day, it is very possible for him to break the state of not starting three consecutive games. After all, it was just a friendly match between the Chinese team and the Serbian team, but The bravery he showed in this game doesn't look like he's in bad shape enough for the team's coach to send the European Golden Boot to the bench."

The man in the Manchester sports media raised his voice when he said this, obviously he did not understand why the Tottenham manager would do this, but then he added in order to make his position look more neutral: "But we didn't forget that before being sent to the bench by the coach, Ha had already experienced a record of 242 minutes without scoring goals. Perhaps such a Latin American player with a very distinctive style has not yet adapted to Tottenham's system. Playing a vital role. But in any case, it will still be interesting to talk about the two players who shared the European Golden Boot last year. Now there are less than 10 minutes before the start of the game. It's time, and in a few minutes we will have the starting rosters submitted by the two teams."

China, CCTV Five.

"Now Manchester United's starting lineup has been announced. This is a 442 formation, as speculated by the British media before, Manchester United's lineup is still led by the Portuguese Tigos..."

When the commentator who sounds younger, the commentator who will be responsible for explaining the game and the fans who are following this preview program, reports Manchester United's starting lineup, it is quite popular among domestic commentators Rong Naida interrupted him: "Sorry, I want to interrupt first, Tottenham's starting lineup has also been released, but Lei Yi's name does not appear in it."

On the other hand, Lei Yi, who was at Old Trafford, just happened to hear the assistant coach read today's starting lineup in the locker room, but he couldn't believe it.

"It's impossible!" Lei Yi, who had told every teammate earlier today that he would start today, immediately said loudly after hearing the assistant coach finish reading the not-so-long starting roster. This sentence.

This made his teammates at Tottenham all look at him in blank dismay.And the expression on the face of the player who has won a stable starting position in Lei Yi's position in the past three games is even more embarrassing. You must know that he was very sure a few days ago that he would win in this game. He started the game, so from morning to now he always thought that their head coach had put Lei Yi in another position.But it now appears that this is clearly not the case.

This made everyone in the locker room focus on Lei Yi, last year's, or former Mr. European Golden Boot.Lei Yi, who was exposed to this weird atmosphere, hesitated for a few seconds, then stepped forward immediately, and snatched the starting list from the assistant coach after saying "Please forgive me".

Until this moment, Lei Yi still thought that their assistant coach misread it!But after reading the list three times in a row, he couldn't find his name on it.Then, holding the list in his hand, he rushed out of the locker room.After this, the entire away locker room where Tottenham was located fell silent, and the eagerness to fight that the battle was about to disappear also disappeared at this time.

"Who does he think he is?"

After this terrible silence, a man in the dressing room uttered these disgruntled words.That was the player who replaced Lei Yi in the starting game. He said this sentence in a low voice, but because of the silence in the locker room, everyone heard it.

"I mean, who hasn't been on the bench? Hasn't he?"

That player didn't seem to want to do this, but Lei Yi's series of performances just now really made him feel that he was openly questioned and provoked.This made him very dissatisfied.

But in the morning, he was the first to say that Lei Yi was in a good mood today, and the right back Glenn, who called him "leiy" instead of "ha", restrained him.

"Remember what he said this morning?"

Glenn's words stumped the player who publicly expressed his dissatisfaction with Thunder Wing in the locker room.Mr. European Golden Boot said so many words this morning, how did he know which sentence their right back was referring to!

But Tottenham center Andrew, who had been sitting on the seat in front of his closet since just now, said unexpectedly, "He said he started today."

"No." After getting such an answer, Glenn, who saw Lei Yi stay alone after the team's training for extra training and suggested that he improve the relationship between himself and the coach, said: "He That said, the coach said to start him today."

So, where would Lei Yi go after rushing out of the locker room with the starting list in hand?Of course he went to his coach Nikolai.He wanted to go to the coach's lounge to find him, but halfway through the run, he saw the Frenchman walking towards the bathroom after shaking hands with the Manchester United coach from a distance.

This made Lei Yi hesitate, and instead of waiting for the other party to come out, he ran directly to the bathroom not far ahead.

But this time, Lei Yi didn't rashly call out the other party's name as soon as he rushed into the bathroom, but waited at the door for a while, and after hearing the sound of water from the sink, he took a breath, turned around and said : "Sir, sir, there is a problem now, a very serious problem!"

The unimpeded communication with Nicholas allowed Lei Yi to speak extremely fast in Italian to the other party about the things that made him pant from anxiety and couldn't settle down for a second.

But Nicholas, who was washing his hands, didn't seem to be at all surprised by the sudden intrusion of this heavyweight striker under his command.He just rubbed the hand sanitizer into foam without haste, scrubbed his hands very carefully, and when he washed away the foam with water, he looked at the person standing not far behind him in the mirror. Black-haired boy: "What's the problem?"

For some reason, when Lei Yi saw the performance of his coach, the eagerness that made him rush over immediately after seeing the list cooled down.He looked at the other person with wide eyes, and when his mind was electrified again, he had a premonition at that moment.

"My name was not in the starting lineup."

The hand holding onto the starting list suddenly loosened, which caused the list in Lei Yi's hand to float down. Lei Yi stared blankly at the opponent until his fingers were scratched by the edge of the paper. It is reflexive to grab it again.But at this moment, the man with cold and hard lips opened his mouth.

He said: "Yeah, your name wasn't in the starting lineup. Nobody got anything wrong."

After hearing these words, Lei Yi couldn't grab the paper again.His eyes jerked from the starting roster he hadn't caught to the head coach, and it took him a while before he finally understood the meaning of the sentence.On his young and childish face appeared unprecedented, difficult disbelief.He shook his head, although the movement was very small and slow, but what was contained in it was more than a thousand pounds of weight.

"You lied to me! You liar!"

With the low growl of these words, after moving to Tottenham, Lei Yi, who has always had more and more conflicts with his coach but has never even had a quarrel, made his former self in a fit of rage. Things that I dare not even think about.

He took a step forward and grabbed the collar of Nicholas who was a few steps closer to him when he said that sentence, and grabbed the collar of this man who was several centimeters taller than himself, and pulled him away. It hit the mirror mounted on the wall.

This may be the most impulsive thing he has done in his entire career.But at this moment, he couldn't control himself at all.Many pictures flashed in his mind, many, many, but those were so fast that he couldn't catch them at all.At this moment, his eyes were a little red, but when he met the man in front of him, he didn't lose his aura.

"You! Why are you promising something you didn't even intend to do! You lied to me from the beginning to the end! Do you know how important this game is to me! You bastard!"

As Lei Yi said these words, he clenched his fists more and more tightly while holding onto Nicholas' collar, his knuckles almost creaked, and his black eyes looking at Nicholas seemed to burn. Looks average.

But facing such a player who was about to turn 22 years old, Nicholas didn't seem to have any panic in his gray eyes.As usual, his gray eyes looked at the angry boy who was close at hand without any warmth.

"This is a very important lesson I prepared for you, Leiy."

This is the first time Nicholas called out "leiy" to Lei Yi, but this soft tone close to his ear made Lei Yi feel that this man was so vile that he wanted to clenched his fist and waved at this man's face. out.But this is not what Lei Yi can do.And this man who doesn't seem to care that he is treated like this by his players doesn't seem to intend to end this "important lesson" so simply.

"The content of this lesson is that no matter how talented you are, no matter how powerful you are, as long as I am your coach, I have absolute power over you. You can disobey me in your heart, or you can show it in behavior Out of disapproval of me. But when I say not to play you, then even in the last hour before the game, even 15 minutes, my decision can override everything else."

When Nicholas uttered these words, Mr. European Golden Boot clutching his collar looked like an animal on the verge of madness.But when the atmosphere climbed up to Phoenix, the animal was not able to bite the throat of the prey he had already locked up. His eyes burst into wailing, and finally let go.

After Lei Yi let go of Nicholas, the Frenchman straightened his collar as usual, and then he was about to leave.But before leaving, he looked at Lei Yi again and said, "Only when you understand this and keep this in mind, can you be a qualified player under my command."

When Nicholas turned around and walked out of the bathroom, Lei Yi, who lowered his head, slammed his fist on the mirror and kicked over the trash can beside him.At this time, Nicholas, who was already in the corridor, stopped when he heard the sound, but he just pulled his suit jacket again and continued walking forward...
