The Happy Prince, Stirling
"Liverpool's little monster?"
In the training ground.
Everyone was jogging to warm up.
Li Ao also knew that the team's next game was an away challenge against Liverpool U18 in the FA Youth Cup.
The winner of this match would advance to the quarter-finals of the FA Youth Cup.
During training.
Li Ao heard everyone talking about monsters.
"Don't you know? That guy was really too powerful! I feel that he is even more powerful than Lingard.”
Januzai said as he ran beside Li Ao.
"So what if he's stronger than Lingard?"
Li Ao pursed his lips.
"This is nothing? Lingard was the king of the echelon.”Januzai said.
"A human king?"
Li Ao was shocked.
Was Lin Huang that awesome on the youth team?
Actually, Li Ao was a little preconceived.
In fact, many players on the youth team would kill anyone who stood in their way.
For example, Lingard.
His performance on the youth team could be called the king of the ball.
However, the youth team was still the youth team.
The First Team was the First Team.
There was a huge gap between them.
If he couldn't cross it.
It would be useless no matter how well he performed on the youth team.
Relatively speaking.
Lingard was able to play as the main force for Manchester United for a while.
That was already considered a success.
"Oh, right. Who's this Liverpool monster you're talking about?”
Li Ao asked.
"Rasim. Stirling!"
Januzai took a deep breath and said.
"Oh, it's him!"
Li Ao suddenly understood.
The happy little prince, who passed through the empty goal three times without entering, stuck his butt out and passed by like Messi shooting at Hao Chaji's Stirling.
In Li Ao's image.
Although Stirling was not bad among the people of the British Empire.
But when it came to monsters…That was indeed not true.
"What, do you know him?"
"I don't know him, but I've heard of him!"
"Have you heard of his power?" Januzai was puzzled.
"I only heard about him. How powerful is he?”
"You don't know, right? He transferred to Liverpool for a transfer fee of two million pounds when he was sixteen.”
"Two million at the age of sixteen.”
"He has scored 14 goals in the last four FA Youth Cup games!”
"F * ck, this is amazing!"
Li Ao was shocked.
He scored 14 goals in four games.
That would mean an average of more than three goals per game.
However, Li Ao wasn't that surprised when he thought that this was a youth team match.
After all, there were many people who scored goals in the youth team.
"We're going to face such a monster in the next match. Everyone thinks it's a little tricky.”Januzai sighed.
"There's nothing to be tricky about. When the time comes, leave this kid to me. I'll teach him a lesson.”
Li Ao said confidently.
...
The prophecy came true.
The day before the match.
Li Ao had indeed received the coach's mission: Restrain Rasim. Stirling.
"How is it? Are you confident?"
McGinnes asked in the conference room.
Li Ao looked at the video of Sterling's passing on the big screen and smiled.""Don't worry, coach. I'll tell him tomorrow that this road is blocked!!”
"Good!"
McGinnes nodded.
"As long as we restrict him, the next thing will be easy. We have to create more set pieces and use them to break their goal.”
The players nodded.
Everyone's eyes were on Li Ao.
Tomorrow's match.
Li Ao was definitely the center of attention.
Defensively, he wanted to restrict the opponent's core players.
Offensively, he was the core of the set piece tactic.
He had only been on the team for a few days, but he was able to take on such an important tactical task. It was obvious that the manager trusted him.
However, there was nothing to be jealous of.
Everyone saw Li Ao's hard work.
It was not surprising for such a hard-working and especially capable person to get a starting position.
.......
The game was held at Liverpool's youth team training ground, Melwood Training Ground.
The feud between Manchester United and Liverpool did not need to be said.
This was one of the most deadly mortal enemies in the football world.
The level of arch-enemies between the two sides was even deeper than Real Madrid and Barcelona.
The fact that the two teams had not had direct player exchanges for more than 60 years was proof.
Even the youth team.
Li Ao, who came here, also felt the city's hostility towards Manchester United.
There was a small stand around the Melwood training ground that could only accommodate more than a thousand people.
Other than the family members of the young players, the people who usually came here to watch the game were idle people.
But today.
The stands were packed to the brim.
When Li Ao and his teammates entered the arena.
The Liverpool people in the stands booed at them, and all kinds of foul language and curses came unceremoniously.
Even in such a small viewing platform.
He really did not know.
One day, it was at Liverpool's home ground, Anfield.
What kind of pressure would Manchester United's players face?!
Li Ao was filled with longing.
That was the big stage that a player should go to!
Li Ao withdrew his gaze from the stands.
He was looking at the stands.
The Liverpool U18 players were looking at him.
"A Dragon Country?"
"Where did Manchester United get it?"
"Is he strong?"
The young Liverpool players discussed animatedly.
"Rasim, that guy doesn't look easy to deal with!”
A player whispered next to Sterling.
Sterling looked at Li Ao, who was much taller than the young players on the youth team. He was actually a little scared.
However, the seventeen-year-old Sterling was still young and impetuous.
Moreover, he had to be careful.
He was Liverpool's little monster.
Could he show weakness?
Of course not.
"Don't worry! I'll go test his color later! What's the big deal about being strong? It's not like we haven't encountered strong people!”
"I'll test him a few times later, and he'll probably be confused.”
Sterling said loudly on purpose.
The Manchester United players could not help but follow the reputation.
"Hey, Li, someone underestimated you.”
"I will teach him a lesson later.”
Li Ao patted Januzai's shoulder and smiled.
