Chapter 10: Iron Temperament!

"I'm not mistaken, Emperor Lin ate the other party's posterior?"

"Haha, I also saw it, Fulham's one-meter-eight left-back rushed over violently, wanting to knock down Lin Huang, but he was humiliated by Lin Huang!"

"666! I didn't expect Lin Huang's physical confrontation to be so strong! ”

"Popular science, although Lin Huang is only 173 tall, his weight has reached 73 kilograms.

Opposite Fulham's left-back Richardson, although he is 180 tall, weighs only 70 kilograms, and the opposite side thought that Lin Huang was a soft persimmon, but he didn't expect to kick it on the iron plate! ”

"Damn, is Emperor Lin so sturdy? I can't see it at all! ”

"It's called a man who is not a disfigurer!"

……

"Lin, well done!"

David Silva saw Lin Quan defeat his opponent in a head-to-head duel and complete the goal, he excitedly ran over and high-fived Lin Quan to celebrate:

"These guys in the Premier League eat hard and don't eat soft, the weaker you are, the more they catch you and bully, if you show a tough performance and teach them a hard lesson, they won't dare to be so presumptuous!"

This is David Silva's experience, which has great reference value for Lin Quan's next trip to the Premier League.

"Well, thank you, David!"

After listening to this, Lin Quan was thoughtful, and looked back at Richardson, who had just been pulled up by his teammates.

What does David mean by encouraging me to continue teaching this guy?

"What's going on, how did you lose to that kid?"

Tarabut asked suspiciously, pulling his teammate up from the ground.

"It's okay, I just slipped my foot, next time I'll let him know how good I am!"

Richardson didn't want to admit that he lost to the other in the physical confrontation, so he deliberately made an excuse for himself to try to save his respect.

"Well, that's good, I'll deal with him with you next time!"

Taarabut patted Richardson on the shoulder and returned to his defensive position.

At this time, Lin Quan looked at Richardson, who felt Lin Quan's malicious gaze, and suddenly felt a chill all over his body, and he had a bad feeling.

The game continued, and under Lin Quan's organization, Manchester City's attack became smoother and smoother.

Fulham's rough feet are indeed much worse than Manchester City's players, and it is almost impossible for them to steal the ball from the feet of Manchester City players without fouling.

But this is the Premier League, it's impossible not to foul!

Fulham's players, like many clubs in the lower middle of the Premier League, are very adept at using their physical strengths.

As a result, there were scenes on the field one after another where they brought down Manchester City's ball-handling players.

In other leagues, most of these actions were judged as foul actions by the referee.

But on the side of the Premier League, their referees have a very loose penalty scale, and he didn't blow most of the fouls, and there is even a faint intention to encourage the players to engage in physical confrontation.

The referee's loose penalty scale encouraged Fulham's players, and they became more unscrupulous one by one.

Under the opponent's incessant physical collisions and fouls, Manchester City's attack in front of the court became a little stumbling.

Among them, Lin Quan has been violated the most.

As the heart of City's attack, he has the longest time on the ball.

But thanks to his excellent dribbling skills, it was much more difficult for the opponent to snatch the ball from his feet than it was from the feet of other City players.

Therefore, once the Fulham player fails to intercept, he will foul him and not give him the opportunity to complete the breakthrough and pass.

After less than 30 minutes of playing in the first half, Lin Quan was brought down by his opponent at least ten times.

Among them, Fulham's left wing-back Richardson committed the most fouls.

After learning the lessons of the previous failure, he realized that the opponent's physical confrontation ability was no weaker than his own.

If you just use a reasonable way to fight him, not only will you not be able to prevent him, but you will also make yourself deflated.

Therefore, he began to use foul tactics to deal with Lin Quan.

Anyway, the whistle in the Premier League is relatively loose, and the referee may not blow some fouls.

It doesn't matter if you blow it, it doesn't matter if you don't eat cards anyway.

After putting down Lin Quan again, and the referee just blew the foul, and then gave him a verbal warning without pain, Richardson didn't take it seriously, but said to Lin Quan triumphantly:

"Boy, welcome to the Premier League, that's how we treat ourselves in the Premier League!"

The Fulham fans in the stands were happy to see the opposition's frontcourt core constantly being brought down by their own players.

That's what they want to see!

Just, once, twice, three times, four times......

Every time a Fulham player put Lin Quan down, he got up as soon as possible, without the slightest intention of rolling on the ground or lying on the grass to delay time.

After standing up, Lin Quan quickly participated in the attack, completely like a nobody.

This made the Fulham fans gradually stop laughing.

Although this is the opponent's player, as an opponent, they also have to admit that Manchester City's number 10 is very much to their appetite.

"This kid, why can't he kick it down?"

"It's outrageous, is he iron? It's so hard!! ”

"I thought that this guy was so good at his feet, he would be like those sissy technical players, he would only protest to the referee when he was kicked down, and he would only roll on the field, but I didn't expect this guy to complain at all!

"This style of play is very similar to Keane or even Cantona, but not as unruly as Cantona!"

On the other side, I saw that Lin Quan was not intimidated by the opponent's foul tactics.

On the contrary, after gradually adapting to the rhythm of the Premier League, he is getting better and better on the field.

Arsene Wenger's eyes lit up, and the problems he had worried about before now seemed to be no longer to worry about, and Lin Quan did not have the problem of not being able to adapt to the rhythm of the Premier League.

As soon as he thought of this, the professor's eyes dimmed again.

What a good player, it's a pity that you can't come to my Arsenal, it's a pity, it's a pity!

……

The Fulham players who were going to watch the jokes on the scene seemed to be impressed by Lin Quan's tough style of play.

When Lin Quan was fouled by the Fulham players again and fell to the ground and quickly got up, not only did they not laugh at Lin Quan loudly anymore, but some Fulham players couldn't help but applaud him.

If you have great footwork, the Premier League fans may not be convinced.

But if you have great skills at your feet and you play with such a hard style of play, it's very fandom.

However, the Fulham fans soon couldn't stop laughing!

When Lin Quan was constantly fouled by the opponent, he was also observing the referee's penalty scale.

After determining that the penalty scale of the Premier League referee is very loose, he began to be the main opponent!

In the 38th minute of the game, Fulham tried to counterattack after breaking the ball.

Richardson was about to dribble up to assist, when a slippery tackle came and knocked him to the ground.

Richardson rolled on the ground with his legs in his hands, screaming in pain.

The Fulham fans at the scene were in an uproar, and after seeing clearly who was the fouler, they scolded angrily!

"Red card!"

"Give that kid a red card!"

"The bad boys in Spain are so mean!"

It was none other than Lin Quan, who was constantly fouled by Richardson before.

The referee was nearby, and he saw the ball clearly, Lin Quan's foot touched the ball first, and then brought down Richardson, which was a good ball.

If it is in other leagues, at most one foul will be given, but this is the Premier League, his previous penalty scale was so loose, and now if he blows a foul, the scale before and after is not uniform, and it will be considered a black whistle against Manchester City.

Therefore, in the face of the protests of the fans at the scene, the referee motioned for the game to continue with a blank face.

After making this gesture, he glanced at Lin Quan, this kid seemed to be a nobody after tackling the ball, and he didn't even look at Richardson who fell to the ground, and rushed directly to the ball.

This ruthlessness is really a bit like Keane, the captain of Manchester United back then.

But aren't you a Manchester City player?

How can you inherit Manchester United's iron genes?

After seeing the referee's decision, the fans at the scene were not happy.

They unceremoniously let out a burst of boos and sent them to the referee team who officiated the game.

And it was not only the referee who was booed, but also Lin Quan, who completed the tackle.

When Lin Quan was fouled by their players before, they applauded loudly.

Now when Lin Quan retaliated in the same way and came back with an eye for an eye, they couldn't accept it, and they couldn't wait to rush to the field one by one, take out the red card from the referee's pocket and punish Lin Quan!

The double standard of Fulham fans is vividly displayed at this moment.

Because the game went on and the ball was still in the hands of Manchester City.

The players on Fulham's side couldn't take care of Richardson, who fell to the ground.

The latter howled on the ground for a long time, and when he found that no one was paying attention to him, he had to get up from the ground on his own and limp back into the game.

Lin Quan's kick just now was not light, and when Richardson fell to the ground, he wondered if his leg was broken by this kid's kick.

However, he was kicked in the face bone, which was a hard injury, and the bone was not broken, but the pain was obvious.

Feeling a tingling pain in his legs, Richardson subconsciously kept his distance from Lin Quan.

At this time, he didn't dare to take the initiative to find trouble with Lin Quan, Lin Quan's tackle just now had already left him a psychological shadow.

Richardson can see it, this kid belongs to the type of retribution, ruthless to himself, and even more ruthless to others, so don't provoke him easily!

If we can't afford to provoke us, can't we still hide?

As it turned out, he really couldn't hide!

If he doesn't go to Lin Quan's trouble, it doesn't mean that Lin Quan won't come to the door.

In the 44th minute, the ball came to the feet of Lin Quan again, and he attacked Fulham's penalty area again from the right wing.

As a full-back, Richardson had no way to hide and had to rush up.

Fortunately, this time the ball is at the opponent's feet, and the opponent should not be able to foul himself again, right?

As it turned out, he was thinking simply.

Lin Quan saw that he was hesitant and wanted to go up but didn't dare to get on, so he took the ball and accelerated directly, wanting to overtake him.

Richardson hurriedly stuck the position, and at the same time pulled Lin Quan's jersey with his hand to prevent him from rushing over.

Lin Quan was waiting for this moment, he took the initiative to lean towards the other party, and with a move of Brother Kun's famous stunt Tie Shan, he knocked Richardson back several steps, and sat on the ground with a plop.

Lin Quan took advantage of the situation to enter the penalty area, shook Stekelenberg, and then pushed the empty goal to rewrite the score to 2:0.

After the goal, Lin Quan did not go to celebrate with his teammates, but walked in front of Richardson:

"Thank you for your welcome and I hope you enjoy my hospitality!"

The players of both teams and the fans on the scene were stunned to see this scene on the field, right, a newcomer who has just joined the Premier League has taught a lesson to an old ruffian who has been in the Premier League for many years?

……

After taking a 2-0 lead, City made a number of substitutions in the second half, and Manuel Pellegrini began to make various permutations and combinations of the team's defence to test which combination suited him best.

Manchester City's backline has changed dramatically, and it stands to reason that it should be Fulham's chance.

However, Fulham's attacking approach is too one-dimensional, and it is difficult for them to play ground coordination, so they can only keep getting high balls and making low crosses.

This singular approach to attack has been adapted to the City defenders and it is difficult to pose a threat to them.

In the 79th minute of the second half, Lin Quan assisted Aguero to score another goal to rewrite the score to 3:0.

In the end, with the goals of Lin Quan and Sergio Aguero, Manchester City defeated Fulham with a score of 3:0 and made a good start to the warm-up match of the new season.

Five days later, Manchester City are back at home to take on Premier League giants Arsenal.

Arsenal are a big cut ahead of Fulham.

Their players are extremely good at playing ground and cross crosses, which is completely different from the last game against Fulham, who only played high balls.

Faced with Arsenal's dazzling cross-cutting on the ground, City's backline was completely unaccustomed to the opposition's attacking tempo.

Before the end of the first half, Manchester City's goal was poured in by Arsenal with two goals.

The goals were scored by Little Tiger Walcott and Ramsey, with Walcott performing well with one pass and one shot.

Walcourt was signed by Arsene Wenger when he was 17 years old and is a young player that Wenger is very optimistic about.

And his performance was up to Arsene Wenger's expectations.

Last season, the Little Tiger scored 21 goals in all competitions, averaging 0.5 goals per game, and was Arsenal's top scorer.

This season, in order to keep the little tiger, at the request of Arsene Wenger, Arsenal offered the latter a big contract with a weekly salary of 100,000 pounds, which is almost 6 million euros a year when converted into an adult salary.

For a young player who is only 23 years old, this is already a very high annual salary.

However, in the Manchester City team opposite, there is a guy who earns four times his weekly salary.

Seeing Walcott making trouble at the back of Manchester City, Lin Quan naturally couldn't watch the play from the sidelines.

He also contributed a pass and a shot in the first half, scoring a goal himself and setting up a goal for Silva.

Both teams also ended the first half with a score of 2:2.

Both teams were unhappy with the scoreline.

Manuel Pellegrini was unhappy that his team's defence was too easily penetrated by the opposition's passing tactics, while Arsene Wenger was unhappy with his midfield's inability to control the situation on the pitch and his own defenders to keep Lin Quan at bay.

As a result, both teams made adjustments at halftime.

Arsenal replaced Mesut Ozil, who was soft on the ball and fearful of confrontation, and replaced Spain international Cazorla.

It worked well, as Cazorla came on and quickly provided an assist for his team-mates to find the back of the net in the box.

Arsenal overtook the scoreline and temporarily led Manchester City by one goal with a score of 3:2.

However, Cazorla is not the type of player who is very physically tough and has a strong physical confrontation.

After he came on the pitch, although the cooperation with his teammates was more tacit, it still did not solve the problem of Arsenal's weak waist.

After Lin Quan retreated, Manchester City pressed Arsenal in midfield.

The ball gradually fell into the control of Manchester City, but after Lin Quan's position retreated, the attack in the front court lacked tandem, and the offensive power suddenly decreased a lot.

At this time, Manchester City fans intuitively felt Lin Quan's role for the team on the field.

Although Lin Quan has not been in the team for a long time, he has become an indispensable part of Manchester City!

"This kid can help the team sort out the attack in the front, help the team control the midfield after retreating, and can not only break through the shooting and score in the winger position, but also send high-quality crosses down to help his teammates complete the goal, he is like a monster all-round!"

In the Arsenal dugout, assistant coach Patles was amazed by Lin Quan's performance on the field.

Although Lin Quan is playing as a free man and his position is not fixed, this is too free!

Players running around like this make it difficult for Arsenal to defend.

"Yes, Lin is a genius-level player!"

Wenger has a higher evaluation of Lin Quan than his assistant, after all, this is the white moonlight he once missed!

In the 72nd minute of the game, Lin Quan received the ball in the position of the back midfield, and before the opponent rushed up to press, he observed the opponent's defensive position.

Aguero saw Lin Quan holding the ball and immediately stepped forward, wanting to run out of the space.

After eating several of Lin Quan's cakes, Aguero was already convinced of Lin Quan's passing ability.

Although the distance between the two was a little farther at this time, he had no doubt that as long as he ran out of space, Lin Quan would definitely be able to send the ball to his feet.

The Argentines are right!

After seeing Aguero's running position, Lin Quan decisively got up and sent a long pass of more than 40 meters.

The ball looked like he had eyes, and he accurately found Aguero in the process of running.

When Aguero received the ball, he suddenly found that he was empty in front of him.

Lin Quan's pass matched his running position and actually broke through Arsenal's defense!
