Chapter 369: Target: Quadruple Crown!
Liu Yun has never believed in that ghost or god. For the prophecy of the gypsy teller, the work of a meal was forgotten.
After spending New Year's Day at Ibrahimovic's farm, Liu Yun's family flew back to Manchester with Ibrahimovic.
The winter break is one day away. Liu Yun had nothing to do at home and began to study the video footage of the league's next opponent, West Bromwich Albion. Four days after this round of league games, Manchester United will face Coventry City at home in the FA Cup.
West Brom are fourth from bottom in the league and are a mediocre team. However, Liu Yun did not underestimate the enemy at all. It is said that the bystanders are clear, and the authorities are confused. Liu Yun has been a fan of the five major leagues for 20 years. He knows better than anyone that some teams that had good results in the first half of the season are likely to cause a big collapse if they lose the first game after the winter break, and the results of the second half of the season will be a mess.
After watching the video of West Bromwich Bromwich Bromwich Albion, Liu Yun made a sumptuous dinner. After eating, Liu Yun went to bed early.
When he woke up, Liu Yun looked at his watch. 7 a.m. The winter break is officially over.
Liu Yun went downstairs, who would have thought that Liu Xiaoyan's guy would get up so early today and make breakfast.
Liu Xiaoyan said to Liu Yun with a hippie smile: "Dad, today I will drive you to the Carrington training base." ”
Liu Yun was stunned, his daughter had really grown up. Now that she has a driver's license, she can send herself to training.
After breakfast, Liu Xiaoyan officially replaced Isabella and became Liu Yun's full-time driver.
On a winter morning, both sides of the road from the seaside house to the Carrington training base are covered in snow. The sky is as blue as the sea. Liu Yun is in a good mood. He smiled and said to Liu Xiaoyan: "Yan Yan has really grown up. Now I can drive my dad to training. ”
Liu Xiaoyan replied, almost making Liu Yun spit out a mouthful of old blood: "Of course." Maybe in two years, when I reach the legal age, I can marry Xiaobai. When the time comes, you'll be upgraded to become a father-in-law. ”
The pink Ferrari finally arrived at the Carrington training base.
Outside Carrington's training base, Liu Yun and his daughter ran into Marcus Rashford and Ibrahimovic, who had just parked their cars.
Rashford greeted Liu Yun's father and daughter warmly: "Hey! Old lieutenant! Little princess! How's that, this model I recommend is good, right? ”
Liu Xiaoyan stuck out her tongue: "It's okay." Little brother Rashford, next time you drive over the speed limit, don't say you're Aguero! For your sake, I've offended a lot of Manchester City fans on Facebook. ”
Liu Xiaoyan is now a supernumerary troll for Manchester United on Facebook. As long as she sees remarks unfavorable to Manchester United on Facebook, Liu Xiaoyan will take out the temper of a wayward little girl in Huaguo and scold her back. No wonder Mourinho once joked that he would apply to chairman Woodward to give Liu Xiaoyan a salary as a Manchester United press officer.
At half past eight in the morning, all the players assembled.
Mourinho finished the roll call and said loudly: "You are all resting during the winter break, right?" ”
The players replied in unison: "Very good!" ”
Mourinho nodded: "The holiday is over!" We're heading into the second half of the season! We had a good first half of the season. Won everything that deserved to be won. We have to carry on the form of the first half of the season! I said before the season that we were going to rebuild the Manchester United dynasty. Well, let me tell you about my own goals. ”
Mourinho paused and said in a loud voice: "My goal." This season, we have at least the following titles. First, we want to win the league! Second, we want to win the Champions League. Thirdly, we need to win the FA Cup. Fourth, we want to win the League Cup! ”
The players were dumbfounded. Mourinho's ambitions are too big, right? Is he aiming for a quadruple crown?
Jose Mourinho said passionately: "I'll admit that I said that to Chairman Woodward at the beginning of the season. Chairman Woodward asked me, "Jose, are you kidding?" I replied, yes, I was joking. But halfway through the season, I dare say, it's no joke! We have the LIL combination, we have the best midfield combination in the Premier League, Pogba, Nemanja Matic. We have the best backline in the Premier League led by Valencia and we have the best goalkeeper in the Premier League, David De Gea. Why can't we go for the Quadruple?! ”
The words of the magic bird ignited the passion in the hearts of the players.
Mourinho asked the boys loudly: "Okay, tell me, what are our goals for this season?" ”
"Quadruple Crown!" The players replied loudly.
Ibu whispered to Liu Yun: "If you can really win the four crowns." I'll retire. That's a success. ”
Mourinho nodded at his disciples with satisfaction: "Okay! But the Quadruple Crown is not made by mouth, but by playing game by game! In this round of the league, we will take on the underdogs West Bromwich Albion away. I don't want us to capsize in the gutter. Alright, let's get started with today's workout! ”
After the training, Liu Yun returned to his home.
At dinner, Liu Yun said to his wife and daughter: "Mourinho said that Manchester United's goal this season is to win the quadruple. ”
Liu Xiaoyan actually tweeted directly: "According to reliable information from the old lieutenant, Mourinho announced in the team that Manchester United's goal for this season is to win the quadruple!" ”
Liu Xiaoyan is simply a good FLAG. A group of fans of other Premier League teams swept the screen on Twitter. Quadruple winners? Manchester United's tone is too big, right?
Who would have thought that Liu Xiaoyan's Twitter friend Mourinho would comment below: "Yes. As the manager of Manchester United, I can attest to the fact that the intelligence of the little princess of Manchester United is very accurate. My goal for Manchester United this season is to win the quadruple. ”
Mourinho himself confirmed that the media and the Internet blew up again.
Some scolded Mourinho for being arrogant, and some praised Mourinho for his confidence. There are also doubts about the leakage of military aircraft by Liu Xiaoyan, the little princess of Manchester United.
Liu Yun said helplessly to Isabella: "Our daughter, there is no humble virtue in traditional Chinese culture. It's like making enemies everywhere at Manchester United. ”
Isabella replied, "In our Western culture. Self-confidence is far better than humility. She is confident that her father and his team-mates will be able to bring United four trophies. ”
Liu Yun smiled: "I hope so!" ”
Two days later, Liu Yun came to West Bromitch with the team. Manchester United will take on West Brom at the Hawthorn Stadium in West Bromic.
West Bromwich Bromwich Brom's boss, Lai Guochuan, is a native of Meizhou, Guangdong, China.
The day before the game, Lai Guochuan invited Liu Yun to lunch through his secretary.
