De Gea, Blind, and Smalling all froze in place with their necks raised.

Bayi's spikes are wrapped around the net, lying on the turf and hanging on the net with his legs crossed.

Li Liang suddenly saw a small flying insect stop on his sleeve, and casually slapped his hand twice, turned around and walked towards his own half.

Unlike the extremely calm appearance, Manchester United's new No.7 is extremely dark in his heart.

On the second day of his arrival in Macedonia, the United squad underwent adaptation training, which was also the first time Li Liang practiced with his new teammates.

Everyone was watching him, and he was still decent in all kinds of individual exercises.

When Li Liang was observing the overall evaluation of his new teammates during the ball practice, everyone was also secretly paying attention to his performance.

In the tactical drill session, especially in the group confrontation, which was also in the group of substitute players, Li Liang's watch even shook his head from the team doctor Steve McNally on the sidelines.

Li Liang, who was the best player in the Champions League final, the core player and captain of the treble winner Monaco, the MVP of Ligue 1 and the second most valuable player in the summer transfer team, was completely out of shape in his first official training session with the Red Devils.

All of the remaining 22 players on the pitch gave their best, even more so than in the UEFA Super Cup against Monaco two days later.

This is the way to survive and the law of the jungle to play at a club like Manchester United, where every player, whether it's Paul Pogba as "Mr. $100 million", Romelu Lukaku, summer transfer target, or even a fledgling youngster like Scott McTominay, is fighting for his place in the team.

Li Liang's body was not in shape at all, and what made him even more helpless was that in the past season, especially in the few vicious battles that had done everything in the sprint stage, he almost burned himself out.

I had this feeling when I returned to the national team last season, telling myself that playing at a high level would be more difficult to recover from the mental wear and tear of the players.

But on the training ground where strength speaks, these United team-mates clearly don't measure the strength of any one man by his illustrious history.

Despite its glorious past, English football has always held itself in high esteem in front of its neighbours, especially in Ligue 1, which has not had a strong record in recent years.

Many outstanding players in Ligue 1 will always have a certain period of adaptation after coming to the Premier League, and there are not a few who cannot stand on their feet and leave in the end.

Even Pogba, who is now in full swing, cried bitterly in the old man's office because he couldn't play in his rookie days, and it wasn't until he left Serie A that he really ushered in his peak.

Regarding Monaco's brilliant success last season, there are many voices in the English media who believe that if it were not for the aging of Manchester City's squad and the explosion of Dortmund, who were in good form, Monaco would not even have a chance to challenge Juventus.

Therefore, many people believe that Monaco's success – and even Li Liang's – actually has a lot of luck involved.

After all, this 26-year-old "super rookie" has not really proven himself in other leagues except this season.

There are not a few stars in history who have played amazing performances and then flashed in the pan.

Of course, Li Liang heard these doubts.

He understands better than anyone that if he wants to establish his position in the team as soon as possible, he must speak with strength and win the battle-

It's either an opponent or a teammate, just like now!

De Gea turned his head to Chris and roared, "Cross, are you sleeping? ”

Smalling turned around and raised both hands and raised his middle finger at the same time: "Shut up, you idiot, if you don't come out, how can he shoot like this?!" ”

Pogba covered his mouth and whispered to his hardcore Lukaku, and the little monster couldn't stop nodding.

Mkhitaryan looked at Li Liang in surprise, and then compared Li Liang's movement of shaking Smolin on the spot.

Blind stretched out his hands to Nemanjac: "It's a street soccer move!" ”

Anthony Martial and Herrera on the bench rushed to Li Liang excitedly, and Herrera shouted, "Hey, laugh at my dear Lee!"

Don't frown! ”

Carrick also trotted over and stretched out his hand like Li Liang: "Good job, those boys feel so good about themselves, they need a heavy blow like you!" ”

Faria whistled loudly, and then applauded Li Liang: "Well done!" ”

The other assistant coaches also applauded, and the team doctor McNally finally breathed a sigh of relief: "This at least shows that this guy does have real skills!" ”

Li Liang still looked indifferent, his heart was very relaxed and happy, and the moment the ball fell into the net, he seemed to have vaguely found a happy time in Latubi.

Even though this is a battlefield that is a hundred times more cruel, Li Liang firmly believes that he can still find a way to move forward!

The confrontation continued, Faria did not adjust too much, the main side has fully taken it seriously, and showed an even more amazing momentum on the field than against West Ham United, as if he was the side that fell behind 1:4.

Nemanja Matic and Paul Pogba took turns to take care of Li Liang personally, and central defender Bai also continued to press and participate in the defense of Li Liang.

The pace and intensity of the game suddenly increased, and Li Liang felt extremely pressured - these new teammates seemed to be even more engaged than the official game!

Fortunately, the teammates on the substitute side have understood the real strength of Li Liang in seconds, and under the dispatch of Carrick and Herrera, several young players in the front court are actively running, trying to create offensive space for Li Liang on the right side.

Soon the substitute team's attack gradually revolved around Li Liang, but fortunately, Smalling and De Gea did not give the substitutes a chance to threaten the goal after that.

Although Li Liang's form was getting better and better, the main side still scored from a long shot again by Pogba, and finally Faria blew the whistle, and the 30-minute confrontation ended with a 5-1 victory for the main side.

After Faria summed up, everyone disbanded on the spot, and Li Liang stayed to practice.

Several young players who were also preparing to practice gathered around, and McTominay said shyly: "Lee, can you teach us that passing move just now?" ”

……

Before the tactics class the next day, Li Liang looked at the tactical materials on the table in front of him with great energy, and he didn't wait to open it to find his name like everyone else.

"Hey, big star!" Bayi patted Li Liang's shoulder hard from behind!

The other teammates who were watching the game list also turned to Li Liang.

Bayi got up and opened his mouth and shouted, "Our big star—the French conqueror—the old woman's nightmare—the Cardiff Millennium King—the man who ravaged David de Gea—

Lee –

His first Premier League appearance is coming! ”

There was a "boom" in the whole classroom, and everyone was talking, and Li Liang was at a loss-

Damn, no! Happiness is coming faster than you think?!

Li Liang hurriedly opened the information and quickly browsed it, and the nervousness, anticipation and joy were immediately swept away! But it was replaced by more frustration again.

He hurriedly turned around and pulled Bayi to his seat: "Eric!

Sit down and stop shouting!

I beg you! ”
