Chapter 593 This Is Not Counted as Five Consecutive People?

After the Arsenal game, the media all over the world were roaring and arguing.

It was the British media who took the lead in igniting the war, and the paparazzi paparazzi had obviously endured it long enough.

Since last season, Messi's game against Getafe, after five consecutive games, the Catalan media has been hyping this matter. I don't know if it is because Yang Yang led Liverpool to win Barcelona in two rounds. As a result, they always aimed at Yang Yang intentionally or unintentionally.

This time, when Yang Yang and Kaka competed for the highest honor, the Catalan media could have stood by and remained neutral, but they deliberately or unintentionally belittled Yang Yang, and even exchanged fire with the British media many times.

Naturally, the British media is not a fuel-efficient lamp, and they continue to fight back.

This time, Yang Yang scored such a wonderful goal against Arsenal, which naturally caused the British media to fall into a collective carnival. Many media including The Sun even opened fire, saying that Yang Yang could also come. Five people in a row.

But soon, the Catalan media responded, believing that it was not five people in a row at all.

They do not deny that this goal is very beautiful, and it is quite rare, but it is not five people in a row.

"At the very least, even in the statistics of the Premier League, it is not counted as five in a row."

Catalan media almost grabbed this and fought back, and nothing else.

The British media tried every means to prove that it was five people in a row at a time.

As a result, the two sides opened fire from the original distance, and directly turned into hand-to-hand combat, which was a lot of fun.

...

Liverpool didn't pay too much attention to the disturbances from the outside world, because the problems within the team had already overwhelmed them.

The league is very long, and sudden changes happen anytime, anywhere, not only for the manager but also for the players.

Yang Yang has always been relatively simple, but he has a lot of things recently.

At the end of October, FIFA also announced the top ten candidates for the World Footballer of the Year.

As the Champions League champions, Liverpool has Yang Yang and Gerrard shortlisted, Manchester United has Cristiano Ronaldo, Chelsea has Drogba, Barcelona has Ronaldinho, Messi and Henry, Real Madrid has Cannavaro, AC Milan has Kaka and Pirlo.

This is also known as the top ten players in the world's football in the past year.

Entering the top ten for three consecutive years, Yang Yang's strength and performance can be considered to be completely recognized, and every year, he is a top ten, followed by a top five, and this time he is the favorite to win the championship.

After winning UEFA's best player of the season, coupled with the promotion of major media in the United Kingdom and Europe, Yang Yang has caught up with Kaka in the odds of major bookmakers, and the two are neck and neck.

But until the last moment, no one knows what the outcome will be.

Liverpool are also very supportive, from the club's general manager Rick Parry, to the head coach Benitez to the players, everyone fully supports Yang Yang, Gerrard, Xavi Alonso, Mascherano , Carragher and other international players have also supported Yang Yang one after another, believing that he should receive this award.

After playing Arsenal, Yang Yang would not participate because of the League Cup in mid-week. Benitez gave him two days of vacation to let him rest and go out to relax.

Before the League Cup, several leading players in the Liverpool team were invited to the city center of Liverpool to attend a dinner held there.

…………

…………

This dinner party is not low.

There are two sponsors: The Times, the most authoritative media in the UK, and Canal+, the most influential TV station in Europe. Among them, the French TV station is still very influential in the selection of European Footballer of the Year.

In addition to Evans, the editor-in-chief of The Times, who contributed to this dinner, there is also the current host of Canal+ TV, former Liverpool star and Champions League player Michael Robinson, who is now in charge of a file [Robinson Report] The football program, this time is also for this program.

Liverpool also valued the influence of Canal+, so they cooperated very well. In addition to Yang Yang, Gerrard, Carragher, Crouch, Harvey Alonso, Mascherano, Reina and other top-notch stars , basically attended.

In addition, The Times also specially invited club legends including Dalglish, Alan Hansen, Souness, Sammy Lee and Alan Hansen to be present.

The gathering of old and new players, coupled with The Times and Canal+ TV, made the gathering even more grand.

Yang Yang himself knew very well that so many people specially prepared for this party must also have the intention of building momentum for him.

Therefore, after coming to the scene, Yang Yang treated everyone very politely, especially in the face of former celebrities such as Dalglish and Souness, he was even more grateful, because he had always noticed that these celebrities treated him support and solidarity.

It's not just because he's doing well, it's because he's a Liverpool player.

Here, he really felt a kind of family warmth.

And he can't help but think of what Gerrard once said when he first joined, that Liverpool's greatest achievement is that there is never any contradiction in the dressing room, and everyone is very united.

...

When he first came to the venue, Yang Yang said most of the words of thanks.

King Kenny Dalglish sent Yang Yang two gifts on behalf of the club legends, one is a DVD, which collects all the recorded game information of Liverpool over the past 120 years, and there is a book, A detailed record of Liverpool's history, from its founding to the team's title win this summer.

"This is the latest edition, and the last one in it is all of you." Dalglish said emotionally.

This made Yang Yang feel a little excited, and he felt like he was making history.

As for why he gave Yang Yang these two gifts, Dalglish told Yang Yang, "I hope you can learn to enjoy playing and playing in the club, and these two gifts will allow you to learn the history of this club, and The things that make the club great."

And Yang Yang smiled and explained the front page headline of The Times not long ago, saying that he is the king of Anfield, Yang Yang said that he is not enough, "In Liverpool, only you are the king, and always will be, I still don't have it at all. I can't compare with you."

Yang Yang's humility makes Dalglish very happy, but he also thinks Yang Yang is too modest, "I really believe that you will become one of the greatest players in Liverpool's history, really."

...

When the dinner began, Souness was in charge of the speech.

Yang Yang has heard a lot about the history of Liverpool, and many of them are devoted to introducing Souness, because the captain who was Liverpool's favorite, chose to leave the team during the most difficult period in the club's history, which made many So far people are very dissatisfied with him, and even hate him.

Before meeting Souness, Yang Yang had the impression of him as a famous Premier League coach. He felt that his coaching style was quite tough. He was a Scottish man in a suit and leather shoes, looking very elegant and full of charm.

So, sometimes players are two completely different people on the pitch and off the pitch, and so is the manager.

For example, Riise of Liverpool, on the court, is very brave and desperately possessed by Saburo, but off the court, he is a character who is not a little dumb or even talkative.

God knows why he turned into that on the court?

Yang Yang chatted with the famous people one after another, from Yang Yang's performance after joining, to the current status of the team, to other things.

Gerrard and other players were also listening, taking over from time to time.

Souness thinks Yang Yang is Liverpool's most successful signing of all time, even though he's only been here for just over a year, while Sammy Lee thinks Yang Yang is a lot like Ian Rush, Liverpool's all-time goalscorer most players.

The impression of these celebrities on Yang Yang is that they have no pretence at all, and they don't look like legendary celebrities at all. They feel more like old men basking in the sun in the corner of Beijing's city wall, especially when they discuss the situation of the team, everyone is full of Passionate, especially when speaking.

For example, Souness believes that Benitez's rotation system is too thorough, and the rotation should be appropriately reduced to maintain the overall stability of the team, so as to make the team's performance more consistent, Yang Yang and Gerrard It doesn't take so much hard work to wait for the star.

"I don't think your game requirements will be higher now than we were back then. Why?"

Souness asked and answered his own questions, his tone was so calm that it was believed that he was simply discussing, and that he did not mean to criticize Benitez or the team, but was simply expressing his opinion.

Because he is also a very good manager in the Premier League.

"Of course, I don't deny that the competition is more intense now, and there will be more competitions, but you must know that your competition preparation, training and body are better than ours at that time, no matter the diet is more balanced and healthy, Nutrition is better, and you guys are better at alcohol control than we are."

"We were playing on Saturday, Wednesday and Saturday, but I never felt fatigued because fatigue is a psychological effect. You lose a game and you feel tired."

Dalglish also agrees with this statement, "If you insist on telling a player that he is tired, then he will believe you, but if you tell him that he can continue to play, then he can continue to continue. down."

"For a professional player, the only one who can beat yourself is always yourself."

This sentence of Dalglish left a deep impression on Yang Yang, although he didn't quite understand it.

...

At the end of the dinner, it evolved into a mutual thank you.

Yang Yang thanked the celebrities and The Times for their support, and also said that he will continue to work hard.

His humble attitude has also been unanimously affirmed by the celebrities, but these seniors did not care about the big, but in turn thanked Yang Yang and others for listening to their old men's nagging.

Two and a half hours of dinner, the atmosphere is very harmonious, just like the Liverpool dressing room.
