Chapter 531: High-quality star cultivation base

The club gave Li Liang a day off, and he successfully had his teeth implanted in the company of team doctor Parker and a group of three relatives and friends.

In the dentist's clinic, as well as the subsequent romantic lingering with Xiaoyu on the streets of Paris, Li Liang was recognized many times.

Although they are still haunted by Monaco's stubborn draw at the last moment, the fans in Paris are still very enthusiastic about Li Liang.

The question he was asked the most was whether he would like to join Paris and fight to win the Champions League.

There was also a fan who was in a big grade and said to Li Liang: "Come and join us, kid."

Monaco is great, but they are a 'selling' club after all, while Paris is a 'buying' club, and only Paris has a chance to compete for the Champions League in the whole of France!

You'll understand at the end of the season! ”

On the way back to Monaco, Xiaoyu asked Li Liang: "Brother Liangzi, I had a serious understanding of the Monaco club when I was reviewing, what the old man said today ......?"

Li Liang held Xiaoyu's hand: "It's okay, just say what you think." ”

Xiaoyu nodded and said, "The information I saw said that in the Russian giant Dmitry? By the time Rebonovlev took charge of Monaco, he had already established links with Mendes, the most influential broker in football.

After Monaco returned to Ligue 1 in 2013, the good personal relationship between Rebonovlev and Mendes came into play, and the team signed three players who broke the Ligue 1 transfer fee record: James Rodriguez, Moutinho and Falcao, all of whom were Mendes' players.

Since then, Monaco's financial situation has deteriorated due to a series of complex problems.

Vasilyev blamed the situation in part on the mistakes of himself and Rybonovlev, who thought that signing big-name stars in the transfer market would attract more sponsors and fans, but this was not the case, the team was not able to sign more commercial contracts and the fan base did not grow.

To make matters worse, the arrival of big-name stars such as Falcao in Monaco coincided with the implementation of UEFA's Fair Play Act, which aims to limit club spending.

At the end of that season, Manchester City and Paris Saint-Germain were fined by UEFA for violating the law and a transfer ban was imposed.

Vasilyev was also summoned by UEFA to explain Monaco's financial situation, that is, at that time Monaco was also in danger of being punished by UEFA.

Vasiliev and Rybonovlev agreed that the club would begin to drastically reduce spending in the summer of 2014, while selling James Rodriguez to Real Madrid to balance the finances.

By 2015, Monaco had sold a number of stars in quick succession, resulting in a net inflow of money into the transfer market. ”

Li Liang smiled: "Xiaoyu, you are becoming more and more like a professional agent now." ”

Xiaoyu became serious: "Brother Liangzi, you should know what I want to say!"

Now, not only in Ligue 1, but throughout Europe, Monaco is recognized as an excellent training base for footballers.

They will always put their talented players on the transfer market at the most opportune time and at the right price. ”

Li Liang was silent. These contents are everywhere on the Internet, and he has long known the situation of Falcao, J Ronaldo (James Rodriguez) very well.

He also understood what Xiaoyu meant, and it was not that he didn't know these contents, nor did he not think about them.

Xiaoyu was a little anxious: "Brother Liangzi, are you listening?"

Vasilyev openly said that 'fundamentally, we are indeed a club that makes money by selling players'!

I think what the old man said today makes a lot of sense......"

Li Liang suddenly laughed and interrupted Xiao Yu's words: "My dear, you have become so powerful now-you are thinking about the problem from the perspective of an agent!" ”

Li Liang continued: "Needless to say, I actually understand all this.

Xiaoyu I know you're doing it for my good, but I'm a Monaco player now, and as long as the season isn't over, then I have only one goal – to help the team win the next game until the last game. ”

The short return trip ended quickly, and everyone returned to Monaco together, and Li Liang returned to his apartment with Xiaoyu.

The next day, he arrived at Latubi early as usual, and to his surprise and surprise, Mbappe was not the only teammate who came to practice.

In the morning's tactical session, Caldeira first announced the squad for the French Cup match away to Ligue 3 side Chambley on 1 February.

In order to prepare for the battle for the top spot against Nice on February 3, only Lemar, Bakayoko and Glick entered the list in this game, and only one of them entered the starting lineup.

Li Liang and several other main players were given a rotational rest.

Caldeira then announced the list for the home game against Nice, with Li Liang continuing to start.

The next day, Li Liang returned to the apartment, and after enjoying the long-lost Xiaoyu's craftsmanship, the two watched Monaco play against Chambley away.

This match is a 32-16 match in the French Cup, and the format is a single-elimination system. Li Liang told Xiaoyu that the team's morale is high now, and even if it is played as a substitute, it should be easy to win the opponent.

The course of the game was a big surprise.

In the 5th minute of the game, Chambley, who was in a dense defensive posture on the field, played a quick counterattack, and the last defender, Amamir Toure, pulled down the opposing striker and was directly sent off by the referee.

Xiaoyu asked, "Brother Liangzi, why was he punished so early?" ”

Li Liang was anxious: "Hey, it's all because I'm too full of words!" ”

Chambly's morale was greatly boosted, and he immediately adjusted his tactics and strengthened the attack in an all-round way. Monaco immediately became passive on the field, which made Li Liang and Xiaoyu very worried.

Fortunately, in the 17th minute, the tenacious defense of Monaco finally seized the opportunity, Lemar on the left side of the penalty a wonderful free kick assist, Carrillo Lion swing his head to grab the goal! At 1:0, Monaco took the lead.

But when Li Liang's excitement in front of the TV had not passed, in the 21st minute, Chambley played a sharp attack on the left side, and the center forward received a cross from his teammates in front of the goal, and Chambley equalized less than 5 minutes after the goal in Monaco, 1:1!

In the 34th minute, Lemar cut in from the left side to receive a direct pass from his teammates and broke through with a single machine, and calmly pushed the far corner to score in the face of the attacking goalkeeper, 2:1.

At the end of the first half, Monaco went into the break with a one-goal advantage.

Li Liang regained his confidence again: "Xiaoyu, look, even if we only have 10 people, we can still win the game!" ”

Xiaoyu teased: "Brother Liangzi, don't talk too early!" ”

In the second half, Chambley launched a crazy pressing and counterattack, scoring three goals in the 48th, 55th and 59th minutes respectively, and the score was incredibly rewritten to 4:2!

Li Liang was stunned, he couldn't wait to pump a few big mouths of himself, and he was too proud!

Chambley made the first adjustment, replacing a striker with a defender and starting to solidify the defense.

Monaco's strong attacks were repeatedly unsuccessful, and Li Liang and Xiaoyu were almost desperate.
