Rainy weather is the hallmark of the UK.

On this day in early August, the sky over Liverpool was still grey, and the rain in the clouds was hesitating before it fell.

People living in this small city are accustomed to this climate.

Of all the players who joined Liverpool, one of the things that was most popularized before landing in the Premier League was this damn weather.

It's like this all over the UK, either get used to it or stay away from it.

Melwood started another day.

The new season is about to begin, and everyone in the team is working hard to make final preparations.

Except for the legendary number one star in the team, Yang Yang.

Because he played in the Asian Cup, the club gave him an extra week off and allowed him to return four days before the start of the league game, which is also a sign of trust in him.

But the reverse can also be seen in this way, precisely because of Yang Yang's outstanding performance last season, Liverpool got the best result in the history of the Premier League, and almost won the league title.

Although he missed out on the championship, he won the runner-up, and he no longer had to play the qualifiers on the periphery of the Champions League early as before.

In addition, the team did not win the domestic cup championship, so there is no need to play the Community Shield.

Therefore, the first round of the league is the first game of the new season for Liverpool.

This is Liverpool's most relaxed season in recent years.

Although Yang Yang is not in the team, everyone knows that the team has always kept his place.

Benayoun, Pennant, Reeser and other players have played in the left wing attacking position, but they are also very clear that in the case of Yang Yang is not injured or sick, this position does not have any chance for them at all.

After the summer, Crouch began to gradually change his role on the field, and Kuyt was as diligent as ever, and their starting position was very solid.

This is an attacking combination that has been tested and tempered in many games in the Champions League last season, whether it is a complete victory over Barcelona or a crazy victory over Roma, Liverpool's attacking lineup last season, especially the explosion in the second half, is very amazing.

There is basically no suspense in the midfield, Gerrard is the main core of the thunder, Xavi Alonso is the absolute core of the organization, and Javier Mascherano is a newcomer, but he has established his main midfield position from the beginning.

His performances in the second half of last season were almost perfect, and no one could afford to give up such a defensive midfielder, so Mohamed Sissoko had to settle for the bench.

Left-back Aurelio gradually replaced Riese, the attacking and defensive Brazilian proved that he is one of the top players in the position as long as he is not injured or sick, Daniel Ager has gradually replaced the ageing Hyypia as Carragher's partner, and the Danish centre-back has successfully proven his quality.

The only suspense is on the right side, the newcomer Arbeloa and the old and strong Finnan, who will kill the deer, this is still an unknown.

The new season hasn't started yet, but there's already a strong smell of gunpowder wafting through Melwood's air.

The internal competition in the team is fierce.

And this morning, when the players arrived at Melwood on time, they saw the familiar champagne-gold Porsche Cayenne in the parking lot.

Everyone was visibly stunned, followed by a burst of surprise.

Yang Yang actually returned to the team ahead of schedule!

…………

…………

When Yang Yang walked out of the gym, a figure next to him suddenly jumped up and hugged him hard.

"What did you kid come back from? And without a word of notice? Brazilian left wing-back Aurelio shouted excitedly.

The sudden enthusiasm not only startled Yang Yang, but even DeMichelle, who was walking behind him, was taken aback, and after seeing the person clearly, they laughed one after another.

"You're not a woman, why am I telling you?" Yang Yang scolded with a smile.

After Aurerio let go, he looked at him deeply, he had only been seen for more than two months, and he missed him.

So, the Brazilian hugged Yang Yang hard again.

God knows if it's because he performed average in the summer warm-up game, so he misses the beautiful life of having Yang Yang in front of him to shield him from the wind and rain?

After Yang Yang finally broke free from Aurelio's entanglement, Gerrard and Carragher, who had already come to the team, also greeted him.

The captain and vice captain are always the first to come to the club, but they are still a little later than Yang Yang today.

"Welcome back!" Gerald stepped forward with a smile and hugged Yang Yang.

"I know, you must be trying to rush me to pay the rent." Yang Yang said jokingly.

Gerald nodded very cooperatively, "If you don't say it, I'm embarrassed to rush, hurry up, otherwise I'll lock the door." ”

Yang Yang shook his head with a smile and reached out to shake his hand with Carragher who came forward.

"We've been waiting for you."

"Thank you, Jamie!"

……

More and more teammates are coming to Melwood.

Xavi Alonso, Mascherano, Kuyt, Crouch, Daniel Agger, Reina......

Everyone looked very happy when they saw Yang Yang, even Muhammad Sissoko and others, who had no friendship on weekdays, all took the initiative to greet Yang Yang.

This is not only because the internal atmosphere of Liverpool is very harmonious, but also because Yang Yang's popularity in the team is really good, plus he is the team's number one star, and every time he attacks the team at critical moments, his position in the hearts of his teammates is naturally higher.

Gerrard took the initiative to introduce several teammates for Yang Yang in the new season.

Israel's player Benayoun, who was recognized as a genius early on, has quite good skills at his feet, and can play three positions in the frontcourt, left, center and right, and he played the left winger position during Yang Yang's absence to prepare for the game, and his performance was okay.

Benayoun played for West Ham United last season and did well.

Due to the departure of Robbie Fowler, Liverpool brought in a striker, Ukrainian striker Volonin, who came on a free transfer from Bayer Leverkusen, who was obviously coming to play as a substitute, but not necessarily without the possibility of competing for a place in the main team.

Yang Yang is not familiar with the players in the Bundesliga, but he knows that Volonin is an opportunist with good speed and strong running ability, he can be at the front, and he can also be qualified to drag the forward or even the right wing.

Brazilian midfielder Lucas Rewa is only 22 years old, but he was the 2006 Brazilian League Player of the Year and the captain of the Brazilian Olympic team.

According to the news that Yang Yang got from the media before, Lucas Rewa's characteristics are very comprehensive, he can attack and defend well, and can be qualified to drag back the midfielder, central midfielder and forward midfielder, and can play a role between the two penalty areas, which will be a very powerful addition to the team, after all, Gerrard and Xavi Alonso also need substitutes in the long season.

Judging from the current situation of the team, the players brought in are basically guaranteed in strength.

Benayoun, Volonen and Lucas Rewa have all proven themselves in the Premier League, Bundesliga and Brazil respectively, and these players are not expensive enough to bring instant power to Liverpool.

……

Needless to say, Benayoun played for West Ham United last season and played against Liverpool.

Volonin is also relatively old in the end, and he played in the Bundesliga before, and he is no stranger to Yang Yang.

Only Lucas Reva, he and Aurelio are the only two Brazilian players in the team, when he first joined the team, he heard about Yang Yang from Aurelio, and later when he participated in the team training camp, he also heard about Yang Yang from his teammates.

This is more or less a side effect of fame.

Yang Yang didn't pay much attention to it, and after meeting with his new teammates, he paid more attention to communicating with his old teammates.

Especially in this summer's training camp, he did not participate in the whole process, so many things need to be familiar and understood.

Judging from the current situation, the team's overall style of play has not changed much, after all, last season polished a season, Liverpool's current set of lineup play is relatively mature and stable, and the players have also accumulated tacit understanding.

Whether it is the overall strength of the players or the age of the team, Liverpool is in the age of playing, and won the Champions League last season, there is really no reason to make a big move.

Therefore, this season, Liverpool has appropriately adjusted the preparation plan, mainly to adjust the state, hoping to grab points from the beginning of the season, after all, there were too many points conceded at the beginning of last season.

If it weren't for the points conceded at the beginning, the league title would have been Liverpool's long time ago.

……

"Fortune teller, you can give us a calculation now, on which front should we exert our strength in the new season? What kind of results can be achieved? Yang Yang asked Gerald with a smile.

At the beginning of last season, Gerrard said that the team could reach the Champions League final, and everyone thought that this guy was talking nonsense, but he didn't expect that he really got in and won the championship, which also led to many people in the team thinking that this guy was a fortune teller who was delayed by football.

Gerrard pretended to be a bit and nodded solemnly: "Well, I think we have a chance to defend the Champions League this season, but I think we are most sure of the league title, we will win the title, Liverpool's first ever Premier League title!" ”

Everyone couldn't help but wonder, this is simply his wish, right?

He also pretended to be a god stick!

But it has to be said that everyone who plays at Liverpool can feel the team's desire for the league title.

It's not just an honor, it's a piece of history.

Liverpool once swept the entire European football world, invincible, reaching the highest peak in history, but fell off the altar in a very short period of time and was completely beaten into the quagmire.

Liverpool have never won the league title since.

After winning the Champions League twice in '05 and '07, Liverpool now longs for the league title that has been waiting for nearly two decades, which is not only the expectation of Liverpool players, but also the expectation of all Liverpool fans in the city.

……

Yang Yang was not interested in Gerald, Melwood's magic stick, and he was also very unconvinced.

Therefore, he challenged Gerrard in person, and at the same time he provoked Aurelio and Xavi Alonso.

The time is the end of the afternoon training session.
