Chapter 232 A bright future for young people in England [6500]
Before officially announcing the list of players selected for England's match against Germany on August 8, Li Tongfan and the old crazy Venables watched the England Charity Shield final at Wembley Stadium on August 22, where the Blues Chelsea played against the Red Devils Manchester United!
The match was broadcast live via satellite to more than 60 countries around the world, and there were 750 fans at Wembley Stadium to watch it. Li Tongfan and Venables were undoubtedly the two most eye-catching of them.
"...Oh, it's Crazy Lee. This game attracted the new national team coach to watch the match. There are many Three Lions international players in Manchester United and Chelsea. Among them, Rooney, Carrick, Ferdinand, Ashley Cole, Lampard, Terry, etc. are the main players in the McLaren era. I don't know that they have various weights in the heart of Crazy Lee..."
Less than 19 seconds into the game, there was a convulsive exclamation from the stands. Chelsea's striker partner Shevchenko and Drogba jointly created a murderous attempt. Unfortunately, Drogba's single-handed goal was resolved by the Red Devils goalkeeper Edwin van der Sar...
In the next game, the two sides fought each other. Wembley Stadium was full of swords and swords. The players were desperately on the field, while the fans were watching him fight.
"... Carrick's pass, oh, a mistake, did Carrick feel nervous about the arrival of Crazy Lee?"
"...Ashley Cole's successful break of Ryan Giggs' ball, the Chelsea defender yelling at the fans, is he expressing his fighting spirit to Mad Lee?"
"...Rooney took the ball, broke through, and was intercepted by Terry. In order to perform in front of the new coach of the national team, Xiaopang worked very hard today, but he was too sticky to the ball, which backfired..."
Every time the commentator mentions Crazy Li, the broadcast camera will give a close-up close-up of Li Tongfan in the stands. In the camera, Li Tongfan is holding a notebook to write and draw, and discusses with his assistant coach Venables from time to time. In the broadcast rooms around the world, the commentators from various countries who saw this scene said in unison: "It seems that Crazy Li has completely integrated into the role he played..."
In the 28th minute of the first half, Rooney, who had been relying on his personal ability to go it alone, finally changed his playing strategy. After taking the ball and attracting several Chelsea defenders, he suddenly made a wonderful through ball. Carlos Tevez, the Argentine beast who had just switched from West Ham United to Manchester United this season, went to the meeting alone and shot the upper right corner of the goal, breaking the deadlock...
The Red Devils took a one-goal lead, Wembley Stadium fell into the hustle and bustle, the ice-like hurricane drifted across the ocean and came to London, the boos of Chelsea fans and the cheers of Manchester United fans played a messy chorus...
Only 6 minutes later, it was Rooney who assisted Scholes with a long-range shot. This time even the on-site commentator exclaimed loudly, but the man still did not forget to talk about Li Tongfan at this time. "... GOOOOOOOOOOOAL... Wayne Rooney, a genius assist, Scholes, a genius shot!! This is a genius performance from beginning to end!!! Such a player is destined to be the soul of the national team. Crazy Lee must be moved by their genius performance..."
Before the commentator finished speaking, the broadcast camera quickly focused on Li Tongfan in the stands. Lao Li was standing up and applauding Rooney's wonderful performance with a climax, while Venables was sitting on the seat and smoking a cigar. It seemed that everything that happened on the field was just a cloud...
At the end of the first half, the game commentator Ninis from Tunisia made a very interesting classification of the first half broadcast footage in a whimsical way, and then exclaimed: "This is really an interesting phenomenon. Madman Lee got 15 close-ups, while Ferguson and Mourinho combined only had 10. It seems that the English people really pay a lot of attention to their most expensive coach ever..."
Easy side fight again!
虽然那曼联在上半场取得了2：0的领先优势，但是慈善盾杯的下半场对于他们来说简直就是一场噩梦，来自科特迪瓦的魔兽迪迪尔-德罗巴凭借一己之力击溃了红魔的夺标梦想——46分钟的远射和87分钟的禁区内抢点将总比分扳成了2：2平！
This is not the weirdest thing, because in the ensuing penalty shootout (the Charity Shield has no extra time), after seven rounds of penalty kicks, only one person sent a penalty kick into the opponent's goal-the captain of the blue team John Terry became the only one among the 14 people who seized the opportunity, helping Chelsea beat Manchester United with a total score of 3:2 to win the Charity Shield Cup!
Ferguson's roar could be clearly heard in Wembley Stadium. What caused 13 top players to miss penalties?
Weird!
After the game, the outcome of the match is irrelevant. The Charity Shield is just a small exhibition match, and people always focus on the penalty shootout. This is an outrageous duel... Why do penalty shooters such as Lampard, Ashley Cole, Rooney, Scholes, and Carrick miss?In the end, the unanimous opinion reached by the media and fans is that because of the appearance of Madman Lee at Wembley Stadium, these players who are expected to be selected for the England national team are trembling...
In the end, everyone came to an agreement that wherever Madman Lee went, for better or worse, weird things always happened!
Less than an hour after the game, Li Tongfan announced his first national team roster since he joined the Three Lions, which is also the list of players against the German national team on August 1:
3 goalkeepers——
Joe Hart (20, Manchester City, loan at Championship Rochdale); Paul Robinson (27, Tottenham Hotspur); David James (37, Portsmouth);
7 defenders——
Michel Mancienni (19, Chelsea, loan at Queens Park Rangers), Philip Neville (30, Everton), Lescott (24, Everton); John Terry (27, Chelsea); Anton Ferdinand (21, West Ham United); Rio Ferdinand (29, Manchester United), Ashley Cole (27, Chelsea);
11 midfielders --
David Beckham (32, Real Madrid), Gareth Barry (25, Aston Villa), Michelle Carrick (25, Manchester United), Knight Phillips (25, Chelsea), Joe Cole (25, Chelsea), Gerrard (26, Liverpool), Theo Walcott (17, Arsenal), Ashley Young (22, Aston Villa), Alan Smith (27, New Zealand) Castle), Downing (22, Middlesbrough), Frank Lampard (28, Chelsea);
5 forwards——
Pete Crouch (25, Liverpool), Wayne Rooney (21, Manchester United), Daniel Sturridge (17, Manchester City U18s), Darren Bent (22, Tottenham Hotspur), Abbonlaho (20, Aston Villa)
……
After the much-anticipated list of 26 people came out, it was quickly reprinted by major European media, and the controversy started!
The 17-year-old Walcott is understandably selected due to his outstanding talent, participation in the 06 World Cup, and the guarantee of playing in the giants Arsenal. However, people have the biggest doubts about the selection of Manchester City U18 member Daniel Sturridge, 20-year-old striker Abang Rahor, Championship goalkeeper Joe Hart, and Michele Manzienni, who is also on loan from Chelsea in the Championship team!
The 20-year-old goalkeeper Joe Hart and the 19-year-old central defender Manziani hadn’t even played in the Premier League before, and the 17-year-old Daniel Sturridge hadn’t even made his name in the Manchester City youth team. Except for Manchester City’s most die-hard fans, basically few fans in England know Sturridge...
The last one, the 20-year-old Abanglahor has played in the Premier League, but the Aston Villa striker who has only scored 39 goals in 9 league games basically has no other advantages except fast speed. Even the most loyal Villa fans admit that Abanglahor's shooting skills have always stayed at the level of the English Second Division...
And in addition, people are surprised by the spiral of Red Devils captain Gary Neville, Hargreaves, Wes Brown, Glenn Johnson, Jamaine Janus, Defoe and Manchester City rookie Richards. These main players of the McLaren era were excluded from the Lee national team!
The bricks and beasts all agreed that this was the lunatic Li trying to establish his authority in the national team and cultivate direct descendants... This is essentially the same as the shocking cleansing that the Italian Fabio Capello is doing in Real Madrid!
"Lee's England is hotly released, young teenagers get attention"
"Madman Lee Makes 17-year-old Sturridge Famous Overnight"
Joe Hart: I Must Be Dreaming! "
"Martin - O'Neill: Abanglaho is a right choice! "
"The Red Devils will lose the selection, Ferguson: Madman Lee is biased against Manchester United"
"Eriksen: As the head coach of Manchester City, I don't know Storridge better than Crazy Lee! "
In the public opinion rendering with mixed reputation, some people soon jumped out to confront Madman Li. The former national team coach McLaren sneered in an interview with a reporter from The Sun: "Judging from the 26-man roster he announced, Madman Li did not do a good job. He actually wants to use such a young 26 people to deal with the German team? Ha..."
The last word "ha" fully shows the disdain and contempt of Uncle McLaren!
Although McLaren was very stupid in the position of the national team, the uncle's remarks still won the support of a small number of England fans. You must know that the Wembley Stadium on August 8 is not a simple friendly match. For every Englishman and every German, this game is related to the honor of the entire country!
The world football world only uses one word to describe the war between Britain and Germany - a hundred years!
Yes, the century-old Anglo-German war!
There has been a history of nearly a hundred years of fighting between this pair of old enemies!
It is worth mentioning that the first football PK between the British and German wars was very dramatic. During the First World War on the German Western Front, after the Christmas truce, a British soldier made a simple football, and then the British and German soldiers played a bold football match in the no man's land between the trenches. In the end, the British soldiers defeated the German soldiers 3:2!This unique game even created a world-famous proverb in later generations-football makes war go away!
And for nearly 100 years after that, due to political factors, the Anglo-German war was given a higher meaning than a football game!
England and Germany, the old enemies of European football, began to fight for glory for their country in every confrontation. From April 1908, 4, England swept the German team 20:5 in an away game, and the century-old British-German war kicked off!
百年以来，这对老冤家激情碰撞就诞生了无数球场经典比赛——1909年三狮军团主场9：0狂屠日耳曼战车、1966年英格兰本土世界上的门线千古悬案、1990年世界杯四强英德战保罗-加斯科因感动了全世界的眼泪、2001年欧文羞辱狮王卡恩的帽子戏法……
Everything is telling people the historical origin and special meaning of the Great Britain-Germany War, which is even more meaningful than the Spanish national derby, Milan derby, North London derby and other world-famous derby battles...
Therefore, for any head coach of the England or Germany national team, the best and most direct way to please the fans is to use never too many goals in the England-Germany war to trample the opponent's corpse under his feet, ravaging over and over again!
而在就要到来的2007年火热8月22日，23岁的疯子李显然成为了英格兰球迷心目中完成这一“历史使命”的最佳执行者，这个年轻中国人上赛季在皇家马德里的神话战绩让三狮拥趸们有理由相信等待着他们的是一场胜利，已经迫不及待地想要看到8月22日国家队在温布利痛宰老对手了！
The fans are so superstitious that they are so superstitious that they don't care if the opponent Germany is 7 places higher than England in the latest FIFA world rankings!The decline in the European Cup qualifiers has made the entire British Isles look forward to a big victory that can save face!
In such a general environment, Li Tongfan only needs to win a big victory in the game on the 22nd, and he can easily capture the support of the fans and create a fantastic start for his national team journey!
At the same time, in the face of the "belligerent" atmosphere in England, the German national team coach Loew issued a formatted diplomatic rhetoric in an interview with the "Kicker" reporter: "England is a strong team, and Germany also has many excellent players. We will dedicate a wonderful game to the fans..."
This is Loew, a well-mannered and gentle German handsome guy. He will not use passionate words to inspire the confidence and morale of the players like Klinsmann, nor will he like to use psychological tactics to make opponents mess up like Hitzfeld...
However, this handsome German young marshal has his own scary things-Loew is a genius tactician!
The German national team was able to achieve the third place in the 2006 World Cup. In addition to Klinsmann's passion, the assistant coach at the time contributed so much to the fact that the "old boss" Klinsmann, who was impressed by his talent, recommended Loew to the German Football Association as his successor after resigning... and the national team's record in the following year also proved that Loew did a good job after becoming the national team coach...
The atmosphere in front of the station is getting more and more tense...
However, before the official start of the Anglo-German war, the Premier League kicked off the battle first!
In the fiery August, Chelsea, Everton, West Ham and Tottenham Hotspur all accumulated 2 points after the first 6 rounds, and even had the same goal difference of 4, while Everton ranked first with the advantage of the total number of goals!
It is also worth mentioning that before the start of the Premier League, the rich man Mick Ashley finally completed the acquisition of the Magpies Newcastle. He bought 80.00% of the shares of the Magpies from Freddie Sheffield for [-] million pounds, and appeared at St. James Stadium as the savior of Newcastle!
But this sworn rich man quickly disappointed the fans-Ashley did not invest more transfer funds for the club as he said, but sent the Nigerian eagle Martins to Serie A for 2400 million pounds!In contrast, all of Newcastle's entry is only the free transfer from Lyon defender Kacapa and the Australian striker Viduka who also did not spend a penny...
Coupled with the absence of the team's top star Michael Owen and the Irish Kumadoff's injury, after two rounds of the Premier League, Newcastle ranked second to last in the standings with a miserable record of scoring 2 goal and conceding [-] goals in [-] games.
For Li Tongfan, the good news is that Tolosi Tang finally completed the acquisition of Newcastle's minority shareholders. After spending 2000 million pounds, Lao Li holds 18.3% of the shares of Magpie!Of course, everything was kept secret, and it wasn't even Tolosi-Tang who actually made contact. Everyone knew that Newcastle had a mysterious minority shareholder, but they didn't know who this guy was!
It doesn't matter, because even the Magpies fans themselves don't seem to be pinning their hopes on this mysterious guy to save the team!The new rich boss Ashley started pretending to be poor, what can a small shareholder do?

On August 8th, the weather was fine!
The dark clouds that have been hanging over London have dissipated, and the bright sunlight rarely shines directly on St. Paul's Cathedral, the landmark building in the foggy capital of London!
With the end of the second round of the Premier League, the attention of the entire British Isles has completely shifted from the league to the national team. Crazy Lee's first match of the national team is about to start. The players who were lucky enough to be selected for the 26-man squad gathered at the world-famous Brown Hotel in London to prepare for the British-German battle on August 8!
This is also the first time for Li Tongfan to meet England's stars, and it's interesting!
Daniel Sturridge, Joe Hart and Manziani, the three youngest and most controversial young players who were selected, were the first to come to the hotel to report. The three first-timers of the national team obviously came here in a hurry before dawn!
Sturridge and Manzienni are obviously two rookies, and although Joe Hart is a little mature due to his position, he is no different from the first two rookies after standing in front of Li Tongfan. His nervous calf is spinning, and he is afraid that if he does not do well, he will annoy this high-ranking miracle coach and be expelled from the national team...
Li Tongfan patted the shoulders of the three of them one by one, with the purest smile on his face: "Some people say that you are not qualified to be selected for the national team. I think that is bullshit. Look, what a good guy..." Lao Li said, flirting with the old crazy Venables beside him: "What you lack is just experience..."
The old lunatic immediately understood, and a purer smile than Li Tongfan appeared on his face, like a demon with pointed ears, a pointed tail, and a three-pronged fork in his hand. His tone was full of temptation: "If lunatic Li thinks you are qualified to play for Great Britain, it will be useless for God to stand up to oppose it... Be good, boys, maybe you will play games and become national heroes. Think about the scene of Wembley Stadium cheering for you..."
Cheers and screams at Wembley Stadium?
Poor Joe Hart and the three tried hard to draw the dream picture in their brains, and were instantly "limped" by the oboe of two lunatics, one old and one young, and dragged their luggage back to the room, and then prepared for the first national team training in the afternoon!
"Hey, Daniel, I found that Crazy Li is very handsome..." Manzienni, a 19-year-old black guy, had nothing to say: "He said we are all great guys!"
Sturridge, who is also black, but only 17 years old, curled his lips in disdain: "That's cool, the cool of a successful man! Only a boy with a fair face can be called handsome..." At this point, Sturridge raised his hands in a pious manner, and shouted loudly: "God, Crazy Li is my idol!!!"
When the two of them spoke, their voices were trembling with excitement. They were obviously immersed in the "glamour" of a sullen man and couldn't extricate themselves!
And Joe Hart, who was a few years older than the two, walked in the front and couldn't help but turn around and interjected: "Actually, you two don't need to be nervous. In my opinion, you should have no chance to play in the game the day after tomorrow... As for me, the greatest goalkeeper of the Three Lions in the future... I have great hopes!!! Just cheer for me when the time comes..."
Sturridge and Manziani: "..."
In the corridor of the Brown Hotel, three teenagers full of hope are dreaming about their beautiful tomorrow in gratitude!
And in the hotel lobby, old lunatic Venables looked at the backs of the three teenagers, and his expression finally became serious: "Hey, little guy, although you promised me to make the national team younger, these three rookies are too young, right? For me to promise this thing, just talk about it. After all, the record is more important. You must know that the opponent is the German team..."
"Old guy, didn't you say that youth is wealth? As long as there is enough opportunity, they will all soar into the sky..." Li Tongfan leaned on the sofa in the lobby, his eyes flicked back and forth at the blond, tall and tall waitresses in the Brown Hotel, carelessly perfunctory the old lunatic: "Besides, this is just the beginning. I will show the world a different Three Lions..."
At this moment, Li Tongfan's confidence is slowly growing. It turns out that after the system is upgraded to FM2008, so many high-potential little monsters will qualify for the English League. A great era, here I come...
-
I stayed up late last night until three or four o’clock, and finally coded more than 6000 words. Now I am changing it in one breath. In the afternoon, Xiaodao will take the train to Tianjin to apply for personal files. I will not be back until Saturday, so I only have 6400 words for this chapter today. 6000 words are guaranteed every day on Friday and Saturday, and I will explode when I come back on Sunday!
I'm very depressed, I didn't expect that it would be so difficult to buy a ticket at this moment, and I have to go to Tianjin again, what a crime, it took six or seven hours, and it was still midnight!
