Manchester City's reserve team have a mediocre record in the Premier League's reserve north division, currently sitting fifth out of 12 participating teams, a huge gap between them and their city rivals Manchester United. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info

Manchester United's development squad was last year's North League champions and have been on a good run this year, staying firmly at the top of the table.

Interestingly, Manchester City's senior team has the opposite record, and if they beat Leicester City in the 26th round of the 26th round tomorrow, then Manchester City will remain at the top of the league table on goal difference.

Manchester United are only fifth in the table, but what is even more exaggerated is that the "Blue Foxes" reserve team has always firmly occupied the "vice-captain" position in the North League, and has always been at the bottom of the points.

Manchester City's first-team squad has suffered from injuries this season, and several young talents in the reserve squad have been frequently promoted to the first team, which is also a big reason for the poor results of Manchester City's reserve team.

The current reserve coach Deves was the predecessor of Vieira, and today's teaching game is actually for Vieira to select a few players to prepare for loan at the New York City club.

Li Liang just caught up with this rare opportunity, of course, mainly because Vieira saw great potential in his physical test report.

Although he couldn't see the rose chart of other people during the pre-match warm-up, Li Liang was already feeling a lot of pressure.

Most of these young players between the ages of 19 and 23 have very amazing physical fitness, and from the point of view of body size, Li Liang, who is 1.80 meters tall and weighs 142 pounds, is too obvious and looks very thin.

Deves frowned and said to his assistant Figet: "This Chinese player is too weak, I'm really worried that he will get hurt!" ”

Figuert said: "But Perez told us that it was because of the excellent physical results that Patrick decided to let him play on the court, and he also made a special suggestion to let him play at least the full half! ”

Deves sighed and said, "Okay, you go and arrange it, just let him start, good luck to him." ”

Figgett gathered everyone together, and he asked Li Liang in public: "What position are you good at?" ”

Li Liang thought for a while and replied honestly: "What I am best at is the left-sided midfielder in the 4231 formation, but recently I prefer the central midfielder who stands in the front in the 442 formation." ”

Before Figett could speak, the reserve team members immediately whispered: "Is this a Chinese?" He actually speaks English! "Fool, there are many Chinese who came to England when they were very young now, and their accents are much more authentic than yours!"

Someone else said, "He looks like he's hanging!" "What are you afraid of, I've seen the video of their country's top game, which claims to be the best team, but the level is probably equivalent to the middle and lower reaches of the Championship!" "Stop bragging, can you go to Middlesbrough [Championship team] and be a regular now?!"

Figgett also thought to himself: "This guy is really not small!" He shouted, "Quiet, gentlemen, in this way, Mr. Lee will be in the starting lineup of Team B, Sinan-"

He pointed to a tall white guy and said, "Li will appear in your place first." ”

Sinan who was robbed of the starting start by Li Liang? Beatitch was furious, but he held back.

Bidic was sent to the Eredivisie's Advance Eagles last season and received very little playing time.

In this game, he had the same idea as most of his teammates, wanting to take the opportunity to put on a good show and try to be taken to the major leagues by Vieira to prove himself.

Everyone knows that the club now treats New York City as a "B team", which is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to practice.

Not only Bidyc, but other young players who have no hope of being promoted to the first team in the reserve team all have the same idea, and they are full of hostility towards Li Liang.

Due to the abundance of cards in the squad, Manchester City's reserves have historically struggled to break into the first team, with the exception of talented Nigerian striker Claich? With the exception of Iheanacho, the rest are still waiting for the first team to call.

Many of the previous Manchester City youth training products have fallen into the Championship, and even League One and League Two and other low-level leagues, so today's game has a special meaning for these young people.

Figgett arranged Li Liang alone, and to his surprise, the communication with Li Liang was extremely smooth.

There are some tactical concepts that are too much written – he usually has to explain them several times to his homegrown players, but Li Liang seems to be very easy to understand.

Cook also came with Big Bear and Little Li, and Big Bear casually put his body test report directly on the seat and sat on it.

Lao Xu leaned his head over and chatted with Da Xiong: "Hey, Xiao Xiong, in fact, if you can operate it, let Li Liang stay in Manchester City for a few days, and then transfer to a European minor league, endure it for a year and a half and then return to the Chinese Super League, and you can also get a big contract!" ”

Da Xiong said disappreciatively: "The good man is determined to go to the five major leagues, so please help him think of a serious way!" ”

Lao Xu looked at the field and said to himself: "I suddenly remembered Wang Shangyun, who was the captain of Rick Link's national youth team and played as a striker." Someone approached me at the time, and I didn't take his business.

Later, this guy was operated to Manchester City's reserve team, and then went to Belgium, and last year he successfully 'returned' back to China, and now he has been changed to right-back, but I heard that the contract is not bad.

Little Bear, Liangzi can't get a labor certification! Even if he breaks the sky no matter how bullish B day is, he can't play in the Premier League, and I really have to make other plans for him now! ”

The game began, with Figuet as the referee. In the stands, Xiao Yu and Xiao Lidu screamed loudly to cheer for Li Liang, and Adams stabbed Vieira with his elbow, squeezing his eyes and smiling weirdly.

But his smile disappeared immediately, and Adams' brow slowly furrowed at the sight of what was happening on the field.

Team B kicked off, and within five minutes, Li Liang was completely ignored by his teammates like air on the field.

Manchester City's reserve team strictly follows the 442 style of play requested by Manuel Pellegrini, and Li Liang's position is equivalent to that of Toure in the first team, and he has a heavier offensive responsibility, and is the core role of bridging the back and front.

But at the moment, the young people of Team B are not willing to pass the ball to Li Liang at all, even if Li Liang runs out of a very good receiving position, his teammates would rather lose the ball than pass it to him.

Deves roared, "What the hell are you guys doing? His rants didn't help, and the B midfield was immediately at an absolute disadvantage, with possession plummeting.

Vieira, Adams, and Big Bear were silent, Perez couldn't help shaking his head, Lao Xu was anxious, and said to Big Bear: "This can't be done, the characteristics of always not being able to get the ball can not be reflected!" ”

De Bruyne, who was on the sidelines, was thoughtful, and he whispered to Nasri: "Did you see Lee's running, it's really interesting!" ”
