"What do you mean?"

Lu Ling then told Patrick the content of the phone call she had with Jose before, and after she finished speaking, there was no sound for a long time. She knew he was still there, so she waited patiently.

Finally, he spoke, "Tina, I don't know what you think, why do you think it's me wanting to leave?

It was clear that he was a little angry.

"Is it hard to believe me?" he asked.

Lu Ling, who was stunned by Patrick's series of questions, didn't know what to say for a while. Logically, it was normal for her to think so, but with what she knew about him, she really shouldn't doubt his loyalty. Maybe it was because of what she said last night, and she was vaguely worried that he would have the idea of leaving.

Finally she said, "I'm sorry. ”

“…… No need to apologize to me. ”

"I've got to hang up. ”

"Wait a minute...... Tina, you know me. ”

"Yes. ”

"You're my coach and I'll listen to you for a lot of things. But there are some things you can't control. ”

Lu Ling was silent, she knew he was talking about what she said last night.

"I have my position. She said she wanted her tone to be firm, but perhaps there was still a hint of helplessness.

"I have mine too. Don't say those things anymore unless you really don't ...... at all Forget it, I have to hang up too, there's a stupid show to be on. ”

"I'll see you later. Lu Ling hung up the phone.

Now, she had to wonder, if it wasn't Pat who he meant, then why on earth did Jose make this call, and was Jose really bored enough to play psychological warfare with her?

Manchester United have lost just one of their first 15 games this season, the same as Everton and Manchester City. At the moment, Manchester City are at the top of the table with 34 points (10 wins, 4 draws, 1 loss), while Everton and Manchester City are both on 32 points (9 wins, 5 draws and 1 loss each), with Everton having a slightly better goal difference, so Jose Mourinho's side are temporarily relegated to third.

Three teams, the gap is very small, one game, the position may be reversed.

It's not for nothing that Jose attaches importance to this game against QPR, if the previous call was psychological warfare, it is understandable, Lu Ling thought so, Manchester City's opponent in this round is Arsenal, and it may lose points. In that case, United will definitely want to take all three points against their own team.

Lu Ling walked from his desk to the tactical board.

She put Jose's most used starting eleven this season.

Manchester United have greatly strengthened their defensive capabilities by bringing in the physically strong Ivory Coast centre-back Eric Bailly this season, which is why they are willing to sign Mensah on loan to QPR, but because of this, the loan contract requires Mensah not to play against his parent club, so the Dutch boys will not be able to play this game. This is a big problem for Lu Ling.

In attack, Anthony Martial, Ibrahimovic and Mkhitanyan are already very skillful in the combination, and there are super substitutes like Rashford. Wayne Rooney has stepped back into midfield this season. As for Pogba, who they bought from Juventus at a sky-high price, they have also played quite well this season. However, perhaps because of the fatigue of the European Championship, the French young talent's table this season is relatively not as dazzling as it was in Serie A. They also bought from Leicester City the cornerstone player who created the myth of the Premier League, N'Golo Kante. The midfielder has greatly strengthened United's midfield.

The Portuguese's Manchester United are no longer Van Gaal's dominant style of play. He is a pragmatic manager with an emphasis on tough defence and sharp counter-attacks. The game wasn't pretty, but it was a tough game on occasion.

Manchester United is already a team with a strong Mourinho color. Definitely not easy to beat.

And what about her own team?

The current QPR is 11th with 19 points, ahead of them by Swansea City (21 points).

Lu Ling's goal is to enter the upper half of the area as much as possible, and then ......

In every game, you can't relax.

She removed the eleven of Manchester United and put the eleven in her heart against Manchester United.

What kind of team is Kristen Lue's team?

Since the beginning of this season, there have been a lot of articles in the media analyzing her tactics and games, and Motd has often analyzed her games on video.

Yes, first of all, Lu Ling admits that her team is not strong enough to be completely self-oriented, so she has to adjust to specific opponents.

From the win over Tottenham Hotspur to Manchester City to back-to-back wins over Stoke Burnley West Bromwich Albion, the style of play she used varied widely.

When facing strong teams, she conceded the initiative, but emphasized overall containment and the use of a few good players to contain the opponent. And when facing a weak team, she puts a lot of emphasis on the initiative and crushes the opponent with a continuous attack.

A lot of her set of things is similar to Nicolas Flores. There is a certain idealism, but it is also very pragmatic and has a targeted idea.

So even before they appear openly in Manchester City's restaurants, the media likes to put them together. Of course, at that time, they always called him her Spanish mentor. And now, more ridicule for her close friends.

Lu Ling continued to stare at the tactical board.

There is no Mensah in this game, and Pate will certainly be targeted by Jose......

She tapped the name of a player on the tactical board with her pen.

****

In this week's Premier League news, QPR is once again the protagonist. And this time it was not because of the peachy news of the acting manager, but because of the famous Nathaniel Lawrence showing up at the Harrington training base.

The head of the Lawrence family, a young American real estate tycoon, the world's most famous golden bachelor, and the owner of the New York Jets (NFL league team), appear to be interested in buying the Premier League side based in west London.

The Sun ridiculed Nathan Neal Lawrence's title as close to Danerys in the American pay TV series "Game of Thrones". (There are many titles for this character in this play, and he is often ridiculed)

Although QPR officials did not comment on the matter, a spokesperson for the Lawrence family responded on Tuesday to the images circulating online, saying that Nathan Neil Lawrence was indeed interested in Queens Park Rangers.

As a result, the British media quickly dug out that Nathan Neal had been a Premier League fan since he was a child, supported Manchester United, and liked to play football instead of football when he was a student at Yale, so he was ridiculed by many friends (Americans like to ridicule English football as a girl's sport).

But right away, there were London newspapers saying that Nathan Neal was an Arsenal fan.

On social media, the incident also caused a lot of buzz. After all, it's the famous Nathan Neil Lawrence, and the club he's interested in is the QPR that has attracted a lot of attention this season.

[No matter which team Lawrence Jr. was a fucking fan before, he will definitely be a fan of qpr in the future.] 】

[Maybe Lawrence Jr. just wants to pursue a sweet coach, so he is interested in a small team like QPR, isn't Tottenham more valuable to acquire?]

[It's to say that it has something to do with Christine, what kind of woman does Nathan Neal want.] 】

[I just want to say that the Premier League is going to have a rich team again.] Are the Manchester City and Chelsea fans stressed? Oh I forgot, Everton. 】

[The American owner is more cautious in spending money, Liverpool fans and Manchester United fans know what I'm talking about, qpr fans don't rejoice too soon.] 】

[I just want to know which female star Nate is sleeping with now!!] 】

[I want to know his size.] The Sun, it's up to you. 】

The current owner of QPR, Tony Fernandez, has been bombarded again with Twitter.

[It's time for you to get out of here, sell all your shares!]

[Lawrence Jr. may not understand football, but you don't fucking understand either!]

[I don't know why everyone is scolding Tony, at least the two managers he has chosen recently are good. 】

……

At the same time, a piece of gossip that has nothing to do with these has been updated.

[It is said that Sofia is preparing to sell her house in Madrid, is she ready to move to Liverpool?#]

The link to the image shows Sophia chatting with a Spanish man in an open-air café with her bulging belly, which is said to be her real estate agent.

Yu Zixiang mentioned this news to Lu Ling during training. When she heard this, she didn't have any special expression on her face. Instead, he joked, "Zixiang, you really deserve the title of gossip captain." ”

"Please, boss, I care about you. "Yu Zixiang is very innocent, it turns out that the boss also knows this nickname.

Lu Ling smiled lightly and patted him on the shoulder, "Thank you." ”

The boy, who was also Asian, felt like a child and ran back to the field a little depressed.

Soon, Lu Ling heard them talking about Nathan Neil Lawrence again.

These days, not only the media, not only the fan base, but the whole of Harrington is also talking about Nathan Neil. On the training ground, in the dressing room, the name of Lawrence Jr. can always be heard.

It's completely understandable, after all, if the American takes over, it will bring change to the team.

There is a lot of anticipation and there are worries.

Lu Ling was the same, but because she had already been in contact with Nathan Nir himself, she was a little more worried than ordinary people.

As for what Zixiang said. She knows. Nick sued her on the phone last night.

Sofia will indeed move to Liverpool after giving birth. It was the result of Sophia and Nick's deliberations. Nick intends to do as much as he can as a father. It was impossible for him to go to Spain for the time being, and Sofia was willing to make sacrifices. So there was this decision.

When Lu Ling heard it, he felt that it was very reasonable, but he ...... She had a vague feeling that she was involved in a family, even though she had never been a third person. It's ridiculous, so she didn't tell Nick how she felt on this level.

Pat's matter, in Nick's heart, must not have passed, he didn't mention it again, but she could feel it. She didn't want to add any more contradictions to the relationship between the two.

The two of them were busy enough at work, and she really had no intention of arguing again.

However, Espanyol's opponent this week is relatively easy, with Everton playing Burnley.

When Lu Ling appeared at Harrington's pre-match press conference at noon on Friday with black circles under his eyes, he would never have imagined that at the Carrington training base (Manchester United), Jose Mourinho had just said something that surprised her enough.

These words were told by the reporter on the scene, and asked questions about it.

The United boss said: "Patrick Amber is a good player, every Premier League team wants to have him and QPR is lucky. However, I think he should come to a team like Manchester United and play with players like Ibrahimovic, Wayne Rooney and Paul Pogba. ”

Lu Ling couldn't believe his ears.

He's playing this game again!

"When Jose was at Chelsea, he always said he wanted to buy Wayne Rooney, but we've all seen that Rooney is still playing at Manchester United. Pat is not going anywhere, and the club is not prepared to sell him. Also, we may not be the famous Manchester United, but we are proud QPR! worthy of any player!" Lu Ling said arrogantly to the camera.

At about seven o'clock in the evening of the same day, on Instagram, Kristen Lu updated a photo.

It's a photo of her and Patrick dining together.

The accompanying text has only two words:.

(Dinner time)

Patrick Amber liked the photo for the first time.

Whatever Jose's idea, this photo will dispel all rumors. At least, that's what Lu Ling hoped for.

As soon as she put her phone down, it vibrated again. She glanced at it, it was Nick. Patrick caught a glimpse of it, and he stood up and went to the living room.

She answered the phone and told her gut that Nick had called because of the picture.

"Eating so healthy at night?"

Really.

"HMMM, you see? ”

"Yes. Jose will think you're naïve. ”

"Childish is naïve, and what he said at the press conference was not very mature. I wonder why he thinks I'm going to sell Pat!?"

The Spaniard laughed and asked, "Babe, are you home?"

"I'm still at the Pat house. Lu Ling said and glanced at the boy, who was standing next to the shelf, as if looking for a game disc.

"It's so easy to play Manchester United the day after tomorrow?"

"I do have some work to do, and I'll probably be back in a moment. ”

"I'll go to London the day after tomorrow and watch you play. ”

"Are you serious?" Hearing the news, Lu Ling was a little excited, and his voice became higher. Pat looked over. She made an apologetic gesture, and he shrugged at her.

"Yes. Don't you want to see me?" said Nick.

"Of course I want to see you. She lowered her voice, but her voice was still excited.

"Good. I miss you. ”

"See you on Sunday, Nick. Good luck with tomorrow's game. ”

"Playing Burnley, I don't think I need luck, but football, who the fuck knows (Dyhell), you can't go wrong with a little luck. ”

"You actually quoted Sir Alex Ferguson. ”

"Oh, speaking of which, it seems like you're going to go to a lot of celebrities when you play Manchester United at home. ”

"Nathaniel Lawrence, Alex Ferguson, David Beckham, and you. Lu Ling counted and glanced casually at the living room. Pat crossed his legs, holding the controller, was already playing the game.

"You were in a meeting with Nathan Neal Lawrence that night?"

"Yes. ”

"I bet he's with you*. Nicholas said mockingly.

"It's not so much *, it's verbal sexual harassment. Speaking of this, Lu Ling was still a little angry.

"Oh, Christine, Christine. He called her name twice, and it was all teasing.

"Hey, Nick, you're talking in a weird tone!"

"Don't mind, babe, just kidding. On the phone, Nicholas laughed, and finally he said, "See you on Sunday, love you." ”

“…… Love you. Lu Ling glanced at Pat on the sofa as he spoke, he was still playing a game, and he didn't seem to care about what happened here.

But as soon as she hung up, Pat's voice rang out:

"The luckiest bastard in the whole world. ”

It turned out that he still heard it, and she was a little embarrassed and looked over, but Pat just stared at the screen and didn't look at her.
