On the afternoon of December 22, Anfield Stadium.

Ahead of the 18th round of the Premier League, when they host Portsmouth, Liverpool fans arrive at the pitch earlier than usual.

Because they know that before the game, the team will have a special celebration.

Yang Yang, who has just received the World Footballer of the Year trophy from the Zurich Opera House in Switzerland, will show all Liverpool fans the trophy he has just won to Liverpool fans, as well as the European Ballon d'Or trophy.

Liverpool fans were also full of anticipation, and everyone came to the stadium early.

Before the game, before the referee brought the players of the two teams into the stadium, Yang Yang held a trophy in one hand, accompanied by the club's general manager Rick Parry, and came out of the players' tunnel and came to the middle of the court.

In an instant, the entire Anfield stadium burst into applause, and more than 50,000 fans cheered in unison.

This is the first World Footballer of the Year award in the history of the Premier League and even the English top flight, and this honor will always belong to Liverpool, just as it was Owen who won the European Ballon d'Or for the first English top flight.

It's all Liverpool's glory and goes down in the club's history.

Although it has been three days since he won the award, Yang Yang still looks very happy, and he raises the trophy in both hands in the stadium and swings it towards the fans in the stands, showing the fruits of his hard work over the past season.

Liverpool's fans cheered and applauded for a long time.

The commentators of the stadium also kept introducing Yang Yang's contributions to the team in the past year, as well as the honors and championships he has won for the team since he joined the team, which made the fans in the stands even more excited.

Fans began to shout the league championship one after another, and more and more, and the momentum became louder and louder.

In the minds of Liverpool fans, the Premier League title has an extraordinary significance.

In fact, in the eyes of the Premier League teams, the weight of the Premier League title is not lost to the Champions League winner.

Of course, this is not to say that the Champions League title is not important, but because the Premier League title has a very large harvest, and the benefits are not even lost to the Champions League winner, coupled with the importance of the Premier League by local fans, so to some extent, the weight of the Premier League title is not lost to the Champions League.

But for Liverpool, the league title isn't just about money, it's about Liverpool's revival.

When more and more fans shouted for the league championship, many fans also unfurled banners telling the Americans to get out of the way, which made Rick Parry's expression very embarrassing.

Liverpool's finances have not been ideal of late, with the two American owners largely out of the country.

The reason for all this is that not long ago, the United Bank and the Royal Bank of Scotland respectively announced that they would temporarily shelve the loan plan of Liverpool's two American bosses of up to 350 million pounds for up to a year.

That is, before 2009, the bank will not approve the loan plan of Liverpool's two American bosses.

Back in February, two American owners bought Liverpool with a £220 million loan through the Royal Bank of Scotland, and announced that they would spend £60 million to build a new stadium with a capacity of 70,000 fans.

But half a year later, after layers of media disclosures, especially after the subprime mortgage crisis in the United States, everyone gradually discovered that these two American bosses simply did not have that much money to run such a big project.

Especially after this bank loan of up to 350 million pounds was put on hold, Liverpool was caught off guard.

The approval for the construction of the new stadium has come down, but the loan has not been approved, especially after digging deeper into the media, it was found that the two American owners had gone bankrupt before, and their finances were not at all rich, and the bank was not at ease with them.

It is said that it is shelved, but in fact it is basically impossible to approve it.

As with the relationship between Manchester United and the Glazer family, the two American owners are in financial crisis, and Liverpool is not much better, with the current debt situation showing that Liverpool will have to pay up to £30 million in interest every year since 2008, which will put heavy pressure on Liverpool.

Even, with the arrival of the winter break transfer, there have been rumors that Liverpool does not rule out selling a group of players such as Crouch and Reese in exchange for considerable funds to improve the club's operating conditions.

As Liverpool's most valuable player, the outside media has also been rumoring that if Liverpool receives a suitable offer, it is not ruled out that Yang Yang will be pushed into the transfer market, but Liverpool will get at least a transfer fee of more than 80 million euros.

It was even revealed in the media that Liverpool rejected Barcelona's offer of 60 million euros.

In this case, let alone the fans, even the captain of the team, Gerrard, was very annoyed, because he had welcomed the two American owners with both hands before, but who would have thought that the final result would be like this?

……

Rumors from the outside world are disturbing, and people in the Liverpool team are also panicking.

As the team's number one star, Yang Yang is also duty-bound.

Just this morning, he met with Rick Parry, Benitez, Gerald and Carragher at the Hope Street Hotel.

On behalf of the club's management, Rick Parry has solemnly pledged that the club does not currently have any plans to sell players, except for Mohamed Sissoko, as the player has long wanted to leave the club.

The general manager of the club also reassured Yang Yang, saying that the team would never sell Crouch, which is a false rumor in the media, and at the same time did not receive an offer from Barcelona, because according to the rules, the club should notify the player's agent after receiving the offer.

If you don't get an offer, you won't sell the player.

Rick Parry also solemnly promised that the club's finances would not affect the operation of the team, and even if the team did a little better this year and could perform in the Premier League and Champions League, the club would put a considerable amount of financial revenue into the summer transfer market to continue to strengthen the overall strength of the team.

As for the winter break, the club is in full swing to finalise a centre-back.

Of course, with Liverpool's current situation, it is impossible to break into the first-line central defenders of the four major leagues, and the most important thing is to look for those high-quality and cost-effective central defenders.

To put it simply, just keep scratching the ticket.

After giving an overview of the club's business, Rick Parry also hopes that Yang Yang, Steven Gerrard and Carragher can play a role in stabilizing the players in the dressing room and ensuring that the team's performance on the pitch is not affected by the outside world.

Rick Parry also revealed that the club was in talks to buy Liverpool from a Dubai-based DIG consortium that had been interested in buying Liverpool back in February, but lost out to Gillette and Hicks.

Now, Liverpool are in financial trouble and they are making a comeback.

……

Yang Yang is also quite helpless about Liverpool's situation.

Capital is a major feature of the Premier League, not only for Liverpool and Manchester United, but also for Arsenal and other teams, unless there is a big money like Chelsea, but even so, Abramovich is also tightening the monetary base.

If this is true for the big teams, the other teams are even more unbearable.

For example, Everton, who are in the same city, have even mortgaged Rooney to a bank in exchange for funds to run the team.

Yang Yang is not familiar with this kind of capital operation, and he is not very interested.

Liverpool's current situation was something he didn't expect when he joined, because he didn't know that Liverpool would be bought by the Americans, nor did he know that there would be a subprime mortgage crisis in the United States, which would lead to a significant reduction in the assets of the two American owners.

But anyway, now that the team has this situation, they just have to move on.

In public and private, Liverpool cannot be chaotic.

It's really messy, it doesn't do the club any good, it doesn't do Yang Yang himself.

But what's even worse is that Yang Yang's physical condition has not been good in the past two days.

There are no injuries, but the state feels a little unmotivated.

…………

…………

The pre-match celebrations, which seemed like a false boom, were in fact undercurrents.

But under the auspices of Yang Yang, Steven Gerrard and Carragher, Liverpool's dressing room is as stable and harmonious as ever, even Mohamed Sissoko, who is determined to leave, still trains and prepares for games every day.

In the 18th round of the Premier League, Liverpool's opponent is Portsmouth.

Pompeii are unbeaten in their last four matches with one win and three draws, while Redknapp's side have been reliably solid.

Benitez also played as much as he could in this game.

In the thirteenth minute of the opening game, Yang Yang burst into the penalty area with the ball and picked up a pass at the back post, and Kuyt followed up with a shot to open the scoring for Liverpool.

Three minutes later, in a quick counterattack, Yang Yang took the ball at the edge of the penalty area and hit the goal directly, but the ball was blocked by the opponent's central defender Campbell, but it hit the leg of central defender Distin, bounced into his own goal, and the own goal.

In the 37th minute, Mascherano made a direct pass after breaking the ball in the midfield, Yang Yang entered the penalty area on the left side, and passed back to the middle of the inverted triangle, Crouch followed up and shot to hit, 3-0!

After winning steadily, Liverpool began to play more securely.

It is also clear to everyone that the financial crisis of the club has not had much impact on the performance of the players on the pitch.

Yang Yang also played very hard in the game, trying very hard to find opportunities, and after contributing two assists and creating an own goal, he even tried hard to get a goal.

Because he's scored in every game so far this season except in the first round of the league and he's hoping to continue that form.

But until the 70th minute of the second half, when Benitez replaced him, Yang Yang failed to score.

But the Liverpool fans at the scene still gave him warm applause and cheers, chanting his name.

Although he didn't score, but with two assists, Yang Yang still performed very eye-catching.

After Yang Yang went off, Portsmouth scored a goal, and Liverpool also followed up with another goal by Steven Gerrard, and finally beat Portsmouth 4-1 at home.

But Yang Yang's streak of goals was interrupted.
