Chapter 40: Milner
Manchester is not far from Leeds, and this away game is not a long journey for the Leeds soldiers. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info
Walking into the Etihad Stadium, Xu Yifei's first feeling was shock.
The structure of the stadium gives a sense of oppression, as if there is an invisible pressure coming towards him from all directions, urging him forward.
With half an hour to go, the 48,000 seats are already full. The cries of the fans in the stands on the third floor were deafening.
Italian coach Roberto Mancini also came to the pitch with 18 Manchester City players.
"Aguero!" Xu Yifei immediately locked his eyes on Aguero.
"Brush!"
After a soft sound, a line of dark gold characters appeared in front of Xu Yifei's eyes.
The incomparably clear text made Xu Yifei have to admit a reality: Aguero's level, he can't see it!
This situation means that Aguero's realm is at least two realms higher than that of Xu Yifei, a player in the professional realm.
In other words, Aguero's current realm is at least an international superstar, and his level is set above level 70!
"Yaya. Toure! Xu Yifei was stunned for a moment, and then targeted Blue Moon and his main back.
"Still can't see it! Sure enough, this Ivorian is also above level 70! Xu Yifei was secretly surprised.
"David. Silva! Xu Yifei was a little unwilling, and locked his eyes on the Spanish "Little Heavenly King" again.
The result is the same, and the system still gives two big question marks!
"Tevez!" Xu Yifei didn't believe in evil, and quickly looked at the Argentine striker again.
Still no, the level of the Argentine "beast" is also above level 70!
"Kolarov!" Soon, Xu Yifei turned to the left-back from Serbia.
"Haha, I finally saw one!" However, Kolarov's stats shocked Xu Yifei, "Star realm, level 62." Speed 74, Long Pass 69, Break 63, Steal 55! It is worthy of being the year of fighting, this data is much more dazzling than the Senegalese old demon Diouf! “
At this time, I saw a Manchester City player walking up to Leeds United assistant coach Jepson and smiling and chatting with him. It looks like they're familiar.
Xu Yifei looked at it and recognized the person as James. Milner! He also came through the Leeds United Academy!
In 1996, at the age of ten, Milner joined Leeds United's academy. During his time at Leeds United's academy and training, Milner witnessed one of Leeds' most glorious stories and, along with his family, became one of Leeds' most loyal Leeds fans. His idol is none other than the famous White Rose star Alain. Smith.
In 2002, at the age of 16, Milner made his Premier League debut for Leeds United, becoming the second-youngest player to make an appearance in the Premier League's history (a record recorded by James in 2005). Wolgan breaks. )
On Boxing Day (26 December) in Leeds United's Premier League match against Sunderland on 26 December, Milner scored a goal to break the three-day advantage that had been played by Wayne. Wayne Rooney holds the record as the youngest goalscorer in the Premier League.
However, Milner has also witnessed Leeds United's relegation from the Premier League and the sell-off of a number of stars in the squad.
Eventually, he himself was sold to Newcastle United for £3.6 million in July 2004.
Although he was able to play in the Premier League at Newcastle United, Milner was not happy about the move.
After a few years at Newcastle and Aston Villa, Milner moved to Manchester City in 2010, where he was instrumental in winning the FA Cup in 2010/2011 and the Premier League in 2011/2012.
Now 27 years old, Milner's best years are still the days of studying and practicing at Leeds United, after all, it was there that he grew from a baby to a man, a professional footballer and fulfilled his dream!
And since being sold by Leeds United in 2004, Milner's life has never crossed paths with Leeds United until today's game......
Eight and a half years on, the Leeds United players don't know how much they have changed, and Milner certainly doesn't know any of the current group of Leeds players.
Only Ronnie. Jepson, when he was a regular coach at Leeds United's academy base, had some contact with Milner.
Milner searched the Leeds crowd and walked up to Jepson and greeted him.
This scene, of course, was caught by the media reporters present.
"Click", countless shots flashed and recorded the meeting.
Seeing this scene, Xu Yifei can already imagine that tomorrow's scandal about Milner and Leeds United will definitely not be less.
"By the way, what about Milner's level?"
Under Xu Yifei's intentional observation, the system immediately gave Milner's level: "Star realm, level 66." “
After many years in the Premier League, Milner has reached the 66th level, and rightfully so. However, Milner's data made Xu Yifei stunned in shock: power 77, speed 73, long pass 72, short pass 68, shot 71, steal 66!
"This, this data, is too strong! What a real powerhouse! “
"A star Milner, plus a star Kolarov, I'm afraid it's enough for us. Plus Aguero, Tevez, Silva, Yaya Toure, oh my god! We don't have to play this game at all! Xu Yifei suddenly felt a sense of powerlessness.
"Boy, the football game is not elementary school arithmetic, let alone a solo game!" Jin Lao's voice suddenly sounded in his mind, "A flock of sheep led by a tiger can still kill a flock of lions led by a sheep!" “
"Standing and talking doesn't hurt your back, no matter how good the manager's tactics are, he has to implement them through the 11 players on the field, right? What's more, the coaching level of our old coach, even I don't agree with him. Xu Yifei retorted.
Jin Lao was not annoyed, but asked a question: "Hehe, let me ask you, which team is the best team in the world?" “
"Brazil in 2002?"
"Wrong!"
"Spain in 2010?"
"Wrong!"
"Barcelona in 2006?"
"Wrong, very wrong!"
"Real Madrid in 2000?"
"Bullshit!"
"Argentina in 1986?"
"It's a little close!"
"Napoli in the 1985/1986 season?"
"Congratulations, you got it right! The best team in the world is a football king, leading 10 ordinary stars. “
After thinking for a while, Xu Yifei still didn't know what kind of medicine was sold in Jin Lao's gourd: "Why did you suddenly ask me this question?" “
"Because, from today on, you have to learn to be the king of the ball!"
"What a joke! Learning to be a football king? Xu Yifei was so shocked that he almost fell to the ground.
