Sunday morning.

When Lu Ling left the house, Patrick was still sleeping. The guy sleeps in a very domineering position, and when she is in bed, he must hold her.

For example, last night before bed.

"Won't your shoulders or arms go numb?"

"Nope. ”

"But my neck will be uncomfortable. ”

He then took out his arm and put his arm around her waist, "Please don't tell me your waist will be uncomfortable......"

"Actually, it's a bit ......"

And when she's not in bed, he'll take up the whole bed.

Probably because yesterday the game was very intense, and last night was also a lot of exercise, and he didn't wake up this morning. She sent him a message and he would see when he woke up.

[Dear monster, you slept soundly, so I didn't wake you up.] Don't let anyone see me when you leave my house. I'm going to Harrington, see you at noon. 】

Today the players will go to Harrington to do some post-match recovery.

After Lu Ling arrived in Harrington, he first went to run on the treadmill for forty minutes. She has to be in good physical shape like the players and being a manager is a job that requires a lot of effort and good fitness. After taking a shower, she poured a cup of coffee and started her day's work.

There were a few newspapers on the table, and she was ready to take a quick glance.

Yesterday's game took up the biggest page of the sports section. There were press pictures of the hug she had with Patrick after the game, there were news pictures of Jose and her smiling face, and there were also news pictures of Mensah (who scored against his old club).

Premier League standings after four rounds:

1QPR, 12 points

2 Everton, 12 points

3 Manchester City, 9 points (game less)

4 Chelsea, 9 points

5 Manchester United, 9 points

6 Liverpool, 8 points

7 Arsenal, 6 points (game less)

Manchester City's match against Arsenal will be played this afternoon, and Lu Ling will naturally hope that the Gunners can do Pep's blue moon at home and at least force a draw.

She put the newspaper aside and turned on the computer.

****

At noon, in the restaurant, Lu Ling met the players.

As soon as she was seated, Patrick came over with a plate. Tim at a table with them. Most of the players were surprised by this, but a few of the new signings glanced at it.

The pre-match episode of Manchester City's game against Arsenal was broadcast on the TV hanging in the restaurant, and no one wanted to hear what they had to say about the likely course of the game.

But when the advertisement was interspersed in the middle, Lu Ling saw himself on TV.

It was an app ad for (Top Eleven, a mobile soccer game). Jose also filmed commercials for the game. Why did she think she looked so much more stupid than José, even though José seemed to be stupid in his commercials too.

Almost all the players smiled and looked at the table where the manager was.

"Everybody went to download the game, who didn't have it on their phone, and the boss sent him to the reserves. "This is John's voice.

Zixiang has already raised his mobile phone, "I have always had it in my mobile phone." Seriously, boss, you're kind of funny in the commercial......"

"And, boss, you look like a chi......ck who doesn't know anything about football," Leon was about to use the word "chick" he had just learned, but Vargas gagged him with his hand.

Except for Artem and Mario, who don't speak English well, everyone knows what this guy is going to say. There was a lot of heckling and laughter.

John even blames Vargas for gagging Leon's mouth. Perhaps, not only him, but many players want to see how Kristen Lu will react when he is called "chick" by his own players.

Of course, Lu Ling also knew that Leon was going to say chick, for God's sake, if he really said it, she couldn't help but lose her temper, otherwise these guys would think she was really just a chick.

"I told them over and over again that I looked like a soccer coach and that's how they understood what a soccer coach looks like. Lu Ling said with a straight face. She rejected short skirts and low-cut cuts, but she still didn't look like a soccer coach on TV.

After she finished speaking, Patrick on the other side winked at her and lip-stab-struck, "(Very sexy)".

Her eyebrows twitched.

He whispered again, "Tina, leave those fools alone. They also wanted to say it was sexy, but they didn't dare. ”

Tim snickered, but didn't say a word.

Another TV ad turned the conversation to Patrick. That's an ad for FIFA2018. The 3D character on TV does look a lot like Patrick Amber's.

"That guy isn't as pretty as you!" Mensah shouted at Patrick.

A burst of laughter.

"He's right!" Zixiang got up just after eating, and he went around a table to bump fists with Mensah.

"Oh*you, Timothy, and you, Zixiang!" Patrick scolded back with a laugh.

Lu Ling and Tim met and smiled, and the players were very happy when they won Manchester United.

The virtuous cycle in the dressing room must have been brought about by winning. She always remembered it.

The start of the new season has started with four consecutive wins and remains at the top of the Premier League table, which has made the atmosphere in the team better than ever.

The players walked out of the cafeteria one after another after eating. But basically, everyone will come to Lu Ling's table to tease when they go out, either to the coach or to Patrick.

Hans also came over. He stood at their table like a wall.

He glanced at Patrick and then at the manager, as if he had something to say. But he paused before he spoke: "ithinkit'us, gaffer."

In fact, Hans didn't care about Lu Ling's name Gaffer at the earliest, but called Coach (coach) or Miss Lu or even Christine, after the name Christine was clearly told not to be called on the court, about the second day after he arrived at the team, he changed to the same name as everyone - Gaffer (boss, coach has the meaning).

Lu Ling was very surprised when he heard Hans's praise, and the other two people at the same table turned their heads to Hans almost together.

She also looked up at Hans, his dark green eyes calm.

"Also, I've downloaded it to my phone, please don't send me to the reserves. The corners of the German boy's mouth curled up again. He must have thought he had told a good joke.

Lu Ling smiled at him, "Thank you." I think it's better to forget it, I'm afraid that the strikers of our reserve team won't dare to shoot. ”

Hans moved his shoulders, raised his chin and nodded, and left the dining room.

Patrick glanced back at the tall German figure, pouted, and said as if nonchalantly, "He looks like ......"

"(Love Christine)?" Tim continued.

Hearing Tim's words, Patrick shrugged his shoulders, he wasn't sure. It's just that Hans was like that, and it's a little strange.

"Oh, please..."Lu Ling shook his head and stood up.

Arsenal's game against Manchester City is about to start and she is ready to go back to her office.

****

That afternoon, Arsenal and Manchester City staged a hard-fought battle. In the end, both teams scored two goals each, and it ended up being a draw at the Emirates Stadium.

Lu Ling watched this game very carefully, mainly wanting to observe Allegri's new style of play at Arsenal - the 4312 with a very Italian flavor, and Pep Guardiola's new changes this season.

She watched with great interest, and even pressed Simon's call.

Arsenal spent £55 million to sign James Rodriguez from Real Madrid this season, and the Colombian star seems to have recovered well since arriving in north London, now playing as a right central midfielder and has developed a good understanding with Mesut Ozil.

Alexis Sanchez was placed in one of the two striker positions. It was the Chilean who was responsible for both of Arsenal's goals.

Pep, on the other hand, is still the same old style of play, but new details have been added. Kevin De Bruyne scored a goal and "Jesus" scored a magical second goal to get past two men before lobbing.

Four rounds after the draw was officially announced, the Premier League standings are still at the top of the QPR table.

Tim walked in and glanced at the TV, which was showing Allegri's interview, and the Italian seemed to be in a good mood.

The assistant coach said happily: "Do you know the odds of getting a Champions League place now?"

"I'm listening. Lu Ling leaned back in his chair and spun around.

"At the beginning of the season, if I'm not mistaken, it was 27 to 1, and now it's 11 to 1 on Ladbrokes. Not bad, huh?" (both are well-known British bob/lottery companies)

"My father can go and bet on it. ”

Tim's mouth was shaped into an O-shape, and after being surprised, he said, "I thought you minded this topic." ”

"I heard from my agent that he was doing well. She still swung her chair. Steve's assistant Thomas often goes to see Lu Yungui. Not what she meant. It can only be said that Steve is a very smart person. The last time she saw Steve, he told her that Lu Yungui had not gambled recently, and now he was visiting relatives in China with his girlfriend Cheng Si. It is said that many Chinese media wanted to interview him, but he pushed them all down.

"What about you?"

"I think about it, oh, except that playing Celtic in midweek makes me a little bit worried about the fitness of the players, it's great. Come on, we just won against Manchester United. ”

Tim's eyes were fixed on the manager, and he wondered if she was as carefree as she appeared. He didn't see much, so he asked, "Rotation?"

"Of course. ”

****

After the afternoon of restorative training, Patrick and Artem and Zixiang were ready to go to O2 (South East London Indoor Stadium) together in the evening to watch a boxing match.

This combination is weird.

The truth is that Patrick and Zixiang made an early appointment to watch that boxing match together. They weren't really boxing fans, but it was said to be the fight of the century, so the two so-called amateurs booked their VIP tickets early. In the locker room, the Russian mentioned the name of one of the fighters on the phone, and Zixiang went to ask. Sure enough, Artem also booked a VIP ticket - his interpreter told Patrick and Zixiang that he was a crazy boxing enthusiast.

This didn't surprise Patrick and Yu Zixiang, after all, this guy is Russian.

Yu Zixiang brought a female companion, a Costa Rican girl. Artem and Patrick both traveled alone. However, because he was with his teammates, Artem brought an interpreter.

Toward the start of the game, he asked Patrick, "Why didn't you bring a woman?"

"I don't have a girlfriend. He said.

"You were so beautiful, I thought you had a lot of women. Artem's expression was a little surprised.

"Your translator says you used the word pretty, which I don't like. ”

The Russian laughed, "I'm sorry. I don't think you're a on the court. He glanced at Zixiang and pursed his lips, "His girl will definitely be bored." ”

"You'll get used to it. Except for competitions and training, he takes girls with him everywhere. This is an exaggeration, but it is basically true.

Moreover, this kind of guy Patrick knows one more, and that is the team owner Nathan Neal Lawrence. Nate is a nice guy, and the only thing that annoys Patrick is that the guy always provokes Tina, intentionally or unintentionally. He had told him that he would come to London to watch the Europa League game. In this sense, Patrick did not want to meet the Americans so much.

The lights dimmed, and a battle of the century was about to begin. 166 Reading Network
