It's been five days since I arrived at the Cobham training base. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ

Before leaving Manchester, both Chelsea and Manchester United offered Li Liang invitations to train in the past.

It just so happened that Frank Lampard was staying in London during this time. Instead of returning to the United States with New York City, he was concentrating on preparing for the charity match at Stamford Bridge on 24 February.

Li Liang has already been invited to participate in this match, so he has decided to spend the rest of the week in London.

Adams put him in touch with Chelsea Football Club's technical director, Emenalo, who immediately agreed that Li Liang could train at Chelsea's Cobham training base.

Not only Li Liang, but Frank Lampard also travels to Cobham on time every day to attend training to maintain his fitness.

The players in the reserve team are already very familiar with Li Liang, and Falcao is also very happy, and he and Yaldim have already met after the friendly against New York City.

Jardim told him that he was basically satisfied with his return to form and believed that after a period of time and a summer training camp, he would be able to help Falcao return to the top.

Yaldim also told Falcao that he was interested in New York City's No. 37 "Lee" and that he had already started to find out about the player.

Frank Lampard's charity campaign was heavily supported by his former club, with Amenalo and Guus Hiddink having agreed to feature a number of Chelsea players, including Falcao.

Falcao immediately told Yaldim that Li Liang had also come to Cobham and was going to participate in the charity match.

Yaldim immediately decided that he would come to London again on February 23, a day earlier, and he would meet Li Liang in person.

During this period, Li Liang watched the FA Cup fifth round match at home to Manchester City under the leadership of John Terry along with Frank Lampard and Falcao.

The 2015-2016 FA Cup fifth round clash was supposed to be a close match, but due to the pre-match Manchester City managerial turmoil, they lost 1-3 at home to Leicester City on 6 February and then 1-2 at home to Tottenham Hotspur on 15 February.

To add insult to injury, a succession of tough battles has led to serious injuries to Manchester City's first team. Ahead of this game against Chelsea, the first team had been checked by the team doctor and only 13 players were available!

Considering that the team will fly to the Ukrainian capital Kyiv in three days to face Dynamo Kyiv, the opponent of the Champions League quarter-finals, Manuel Pellegrini will have to field a starting line-up with five reserve squad to face tough opponents Chelsea.

Chelsea were under much less pressure, with Guus Hiddink lining up their strongest squad after losing the first leg of their Champions League knockout tie at Paris Saint-Germain 3-2 three days ago at the Parc des Princes in Paris.

Li Liang's seat is behind the home team's bench, and the line of sight is very good, and you can clearly see the players on the field who are warming up.

He saw many familiar faces, and Baba, Traore, Mizga, Remy, and Loftus-Cheek, who he played against in the last game, were all in the squad for this game.

As for Manchester City, he recognises Kompany, Garcia and Buck who have played in the same game.

As soon as Terry saw Manchester City's starting list on the big screen, he shook his head and said to everyone: "Manchester City has given up the FA Cup, Kompany will definitely not play in this game." ”

Sure enough, Chelsea began to gradually control the situation on the pitch from the start, and the gap between fourth-placed Manchester City and twelfth-placed Chelsea seemed to be reversed.

The fast offensive and defensive rhythm of the two sides made Li Liang almost breathless, and he couldn't help but tense his legs, as if he was also on the field.

Although they were far away, he clearly felt the powerful aura of these superstars on the field.

Aiden Hazard with an overall rating of 89, Sesc Fabregas with an overall rating of 87, Diego Costa with an overall rating of 86, and several gold-card players with a total rating of more than 80, just sitting in the stands, Li Liang can feel their shocking strength.

The first half was tied at 1-1 thanks to goals from Costa and Manchester City's reserve youngster David Fopala.

At half-time, looking at the substitutes on the field who were warming up, Terry quipped: "Frank, you are much more familiar with Manchester City than I am, what do you think will happen in the second half?" ”

Frank Lampard turned to Li Liang: "Lee, you can talk about it and tell John what you think. ”

During his days at Cobham, John Terry has often come to watch Frank Lampard train, and Li Liang is already very familiar with him.

Li Liang shook his head and said: "This score should already be the limit of Manchester City, and the five reserve players in Manchester City's starting lineup should be unable to withstand it in the second half."

It doesn't seem like they have the physical strength to play a full 90 minutes of this intensity ......"

Terry nodded approvingly, since the last friendly match, he has already had a very good impression of Li Liang.

He asked, "Lee, what if you play?" ”

Li Liang replied with a solemn face: "This kind of confrontation intensity and speed of offensive and defensive conversion - I can only hold on to half the court, and now I am afraid that I can't even do it like them!" ”

Terry smiled: "Lee, you are too modest, I am very optimistic about you!" I believe that in a year everything will be different. ”

Although it has been nearly two years since he came to the Premier League, Falcao's English is not as good as Li Liang's, and he is not yet able to communicate freely.

He understood Terry's words, quietly dragged Li Liang, and gestured and said, "Li, don't worry, I know there is someone who can help you." In less than a year, maybe half a year, he will be able to make you completely different! ”

The second half began, and sure enough, almost all of the Manchester City youngsters who bravely resisted the half were out of form on the pitch.

Li Liang knows very well that he has experienced this taste more deeply than anyone else, and it can be said to be unforgettable.

As he told him many times in special training, competition and training are completely different things, and everything needed for the competition must be "effective".

Effective speed, effective fitness, effective confrontation and so on all combine to form a truly effective game ability.

If only measured by endurance or aerobic metabolism, Li Liang's current fitness level is at least in the middle to the upper level among professional players.

But he hasn't played a full game since the tryout.

In addition to the reason for the tactical arrangement, Li Liang himself knows very well - even in the group training match with very average confrontation intensity, he can't hold on until the end of 90 minutes.

He even guessed that he understood what Falcao meant, and he couldn't help but be excited, half a year? That's just in time for the start of the 2016-2017 season of the five major leagues?!

Ten minutes into the second half, Chelsea were in full control of the game.

The in-form Eden Hazard provided another exquisite assist as team-mate Brazilian William Boggs da Silva struck home in the 48th minute to put the lead back in again.

In the 52nd minute, Gary Cahill got a chance to volley directly in the penalty area, 3-1!

Li Liang saw very clearly that Manchester City's general trend had gone, and the players on the field had no intention of fighting.

Sure enough, as Terry said before the game, Kompany sat on the bench in a thick down jacket and didn't warm up for the whole game.

In the 65th minute, Hazard scored with a direct free kick, 4-1!

In the 88th minute, Traore scored with a header to finally set the score at 5-1!

At the end of the game, Lampard stopped Li Liang and said: "Lee, do you see Traore? Don't forget that you've beaten them.

I'm sure you'll do it again in the future. ”
