"What is the dream you have, Rhys?"
"I want to be the best right winger in the world."
"get out."
"Do you have a dream, Boyle?"
"I want to be the Olympic men's 100-meter dash champion."
"Then you kick a ball!"
"Bridge, what about you?"
“I want to be in Hollywood’s Avengers and play the real Captain America.”
"I'll go discuss it with Sophia."
Lu Yang has changed since the Sunderland game.
Players across Newcastle felt this.
Because Lu Yang kept asking everyone if they had any dreams, looking like a giant who realized his dreams.
Could it be that Lu was terminally ill?
So want to do something for your friends before leaving?
Newcastle players are worried.
On the other side, Lu Yang was also helpless.
As he gained a deeper understanding of the system, he discovered that he had the ability to help his teammates improve.
In such a short period of time, Newcastle's strength may be further enhanced.
Just like Sauber, jumping from 87 to 93.
But unfortunately, it is very difficult to help teammates through this kind of epiphany.
Because most people don’t tell anyone else their deepest desires.
It's not that he doesn't trust Lu Yang, but there's something he really doesn't know how to say.
Just like Moliqi's legendary road, he will never say it out loud.
It was indeed Momo who did the thing, but I, Momo, would never admit it!
"Lu, come here and take a look." Flick called Lu Yang to the office and showed Lu Yang some news.
"Everton coach Sheldru: I have never received such preferential treatment when I was coaching Newcastle! 》
"Shaldru: If the team I coach can get so many penalties, we will now be second in the Premier League!" 》
"Sheldru: Orientals are always like this, thinking that money can solve everything. They have always been unruly and they are trampling on the credibility of the Premier League!" 》
"Click Castle United!" The Everton coach criticized Newcastle for taking too many penalty kicks, which affected the fairness of the Premier League game! 》
"Without penalty kicks, Newcastle would not have made it into the European competition!" 》
"Newcastle?" Point card? Sheldru hopes that the Premier League can send the most professional and fair referee in the next game! 》
"Sheldru: Newcastle is the team that has scored the most penalty kicks in the Premier League so far. They have used penalty kicks to steal points from many teams! 》
"In the fifteenth round of the Premier League, Newcastle vs. Everton at home, will there be a penalty kick? 》
Flick looked very unhappy: "Many fans are now asking for an investigation into Newcastle's previous games. This dirty water from Sheldru will make us very uncomfortable."
Newcastle's previous penalties were all clean.
no problem.
But once such remarks come out, they will have some impact.
To the referee, to the players of both sides, and to the fans.
The former Newcastle United coach and current Everton coach Sheldru is obviously using off-field tactics.
"This man's mind is really smaller than the tip of a needle." Lu Yang shook his head. "There is no historical grudge between Everton and Newcastle, but for him, he cannot lose this game no matter what."
"In addition, we have now completed five consecutive Premier League wins. If we can beat us, his coaching ability will undoubtedly be recognized."
"This is not difficult for him. After all, Everton has always been a strong team in the Premier League and is better than any opponent we have encountered during our five-game winning streak."
And this person will also take advantage of the situation.
I know that most teams do not welcome Newcastle's move, so if I raise this point now, all the teams that have had penalty kicks with Newcastle will have their say.
Who said foreigners are upright?
Isn't it just that Sheldru was not allowed to bring his son to Newcastle? Now he has brought his son to Everton, and he is still holding on to him.
There is really no appetite.
Sheldru's interviews and opinions have been reported by more and more football media.
Not even just the English football media, but also other regions.
Lu Yang quickly received the industry insider information from Jessica.
"The American media and American-funded media are very concerned about Newcastle United. They coined the term "Dianka" and are promoting it."
"In terms of marketing and public relations value, almost half a million euros have been invested. Of course, because many media are controlled by American companies, it is just a greeting, so no money is actually given. This is just a concept. "
That's right.
Black Newcastle, it seems, is not just Sheldru’s intention.
Everton has been acquired by American investors.
What is the acquisition for?
Football dream?
of course not.
Chinese investment is to have a voice channel and an opportunity to reshape the image in the Western world.
U.S. capital, on the other hand, is purely profit-seeking.
Arsenal, Liverpool, Everton, Manchester United... They are also interested in teams such as Tottenham and Crystal Palace.
And it's not just investment, they're taking control of the entire club.
When the time comes, Lu Yang knows what they want to do.
European Super League!
But Lu Yang would not watch this happen.
This is not to say that the European Super League is not good. If the European Super League works well, it is a model that can satisfy fans and football players all over the world and push football, the world's number one sport, to another peak.
The so-called shortcomings of the European Super League can be solved or weakened through some strategies and policies.
The real question is who will run this league!
Anyway, Lu Yang will never allow the American European Super League to appear.
Similarly, if you want to establish the European Super League, in addition to having enough say, you must also ensure that the fans' favorite teams are included.
US capital has been laying out its plans for a long time, and these can basically be done.
But before that, a very strange team appeared - Sanremo!
This team is so powerful. It has been in the quadruple jump for four years and won the championship every year. As soon as it appeared in front of the public eye, it won the Champions League.
The popularity is terrifying.
In Italy, Sanremo's attention and support directly surpassed any Italian team at that time.
AC Milan, Inter Milan, and Juventus are all inferior to this team's appeal to fans.
American capital wanted to acquire Sanremo at that time.
But Sanremo club president Russell said he had nothing to sell.
In the end, American capital simply united with forces within Italy to set a trap for the Russell Group, including capital chain, project accidents, certain internal official targets, etc.
Unexpectedly, Russell survived.
Half a year later, Lu Yang, Moliqi and others transferred, and Sanremo de facto disintegrated.
US capital also stopped.
Then continue to layout the Premier League.
Because the Premier League’s policies and attitudes towards foreign investment are relatively the best.
Britain and America are a family.
At that time, La Liga, which was slightly better than the Premier League, had an uneven distribution of strengths and weaknesses, and it was difficult to cultivate giant clubs after the investment of American capital. Moreover, Real Madrid itself also hopes to launch a European Super League, and they hit it off with American companies in this regard.
So the American capital moved to the Premier League.
However, who would have thought that Sanremo, who was in Serie A, would appear again.
Newcastle!
When everyone thought it was a relegation team.
It reached fourth place in the Premier League.
He beat super teams like Liverpool and Manchester City.
If this momentum is not stopped.
Even if they do nothing this year, as long as Lu Yang can lead Newcastle to win the heavyweight championship next year, the second phase of the Saints will in fact reappear.
The "Saints" of those years will reunite in Newcastle and become an earth-shattering force.
At that time, the European Super League must give Newcastle a seat and a piece of the pie.
But it is impossible for American capital to do this.
Because behind Newcastle United is Chinese capital.
When it comes to making money, American capital and Chinese capital are incompatible.
There are many such precedents in other industries internationally.
When U.S. capital crosses the border, geese plucking their feathers and scraping the ground three feet apart. After harvesting the market, they also need to harvest partners to maximize profits.
When Chinese companies do business, they are often willing to give up profits for the sake of their official image.
This leads to the fact that if American capital and Chinese capital work together, the people's support will often be Chinese capital.
As a result, the US capital has to use official coercion, but the allies obtained in this way are not reliable and will also take away the cake of the US capital.
Coupled with the intensification of official opposition.
American capital must get rid of Chinese capital before forming the European Super League.
Otherwise, it would be a pity if we actually take action and fall short because of a small Newcastle.
Sheldru's question was just an opportunity.
This is just the first attempt after the US capital made the decision.
After that, they will make other moves.
They wanted to make sure this threat was strangled to death in its infancy.
Faced with Everton's doubts, Newcastle quickly responded.
Flick: "I didn't expect Sheldru to be so dissatisfied with the Premier League committee. The Premier League can run so well and can take the title of the world's number one league from Serie A and La Liga. A very important point is fairness, justice and openness."
"We respect and recognize the Premier League's law enforcement this season. If Everton is not satisfied, they can complain to the Premier League Committee at UEFA. I have Maltivni's phone number. Can I contact you later?"
Everton was choked.
I'm crazy about penalty kicks, but you tell me that I'm not satisfied with the Premier League committee?
Everton's official account said: "Of course we don't think there is anything wrong with the Premier League Committee, but we do not rule out that some people illegally use the rules to gain benefits for themselves! The Premier League has also been deceived and is also a victim!"
"Don't Newcastle have scored the most penalty kicks by far in the Premier League?"
Yes, I have the most penalty kicks, so there is no need to wash them away.
But Lu Yang immediately stood up: "So there is a problem with Newcastle's seven penalty kicks in the Premier League so far? We have scored the most penalty kicks. Doesn't it just prove that our forwards are very stable in penalty kicks?"
"We created a lot of penalty kicks. Doesn't it mean that our striker's impact is so strong that the opponent has to commit fouls in the penalty area to prevent us from scoring?"
"Besides, Newcastle have received seven penalties. But Manchester United have received 10 penalties so far this season. Although they have only scored six of them."
"So Manchester United's problem is bigger than Newcastle United's? Manchester United has special treatment in the Premier League? Manchester United is United?"
"We have played against Manchester United, and I have also watched their other games. I think they have more penalties because their forward attack is so strong. Perrotta's support and struggle in the penalty area, Aveiro Sharp breakthroughs in the penalty area, these are the reasons for so many penalties."
"Similarly, we at Newcastle are the same. This is a penalty we put together, not someone who gave it to us."
"If you, as the head coach of a team, don't even know this, then you don't understand offense at all. You are just delaying those players under your command who have extremely strong offensive attributes!"
Lu Yang threw a basin of dirty water back.
But the words are rough and the reasoning is not rough.
Because Lu Yang has an informant.
I won’t go into detail about the relationship between Bayizami, who moved to Everton, and Lu Yang.
According to Bayzami, he feels like a duck in water under Sherdru's offensive system.
Do you think the problem is big?
Bayizami's spirituality in offensive tactics has always been a big problem.
The more he adapts to it, the simpler the tactic is and the less he needs to think about it.
Basically, Everton's offense is a defensive counterattack.
It's not a transition attack, but simply picking up the football and kicking it forward.
French international Luborg's performance after moving to Everton has a lot to do with the fact that the offensive tactics are too simple and only run, run, run. He is a technical player, not just a speed dog.
This tug-of-war in public opinion continued until the official match between the two sides.
…
December 6th, the fifteenth round of the Premier League.
Newcastle host Everton.
In this game, Flick finally returned to the team's head coach and spent the entire suspension.
The few Everton fans held banners and shouted in Newcastle.
"Click Castle United!"
"The King of Penalties!"
"No wonder Lu Yang scores so many goals. Give me twenty penalty kicks and I can win the Golden Boot!"
Such remarks exist both in reality and on the Internet.
It seems that scoring a penalty kick does not require mediocre skills.
France's Robéry and Argentina's Mateo must have hated this view.
Because penalty kicks are really difficult for them.
Before the game, Lu Yang and Bayizami hugged each other affectionately in the player tunnel.
The former encourages the latter to perform well.
Because let alone compared to Lu Yang and Moliqi.
Even compared to players such as Talista, Versachi, Areola, and Kant, Bayizami's development is a little worse.
He is barely a household name now.
But in terms of positive reviews, there aren’t many.
He never got any further at Liverpool.
Being sold to Everton this time can be regarded as a decline in his career.
If he can't shine at Everton, then he basically has no chance of becoming a superstar.
In the future, he will at most be a well-known star.
The football performance is similar to that of Lingard and Jesus, with occasional highlights, but they do not yet have the entertainment attributes of the other players, nor can they reach Sterling's peak level.
But this move was booed by Everton fans.
Even many Everton fans in front of the TV thought Bayizami had betrayed them and started barking.
Barcelona's knee hurts, what the heck, can this be accidentally injured? ? ?
After the game officially started, the attributes of the Everton team were reflected.
They really don't attack very much.
They are currently ranked ninth in the Premier League and have a chance to enter the European competition.
But they didn't score many goals and drew too many.
You know, their striker is quite luxurious.
The Premier League's top sports car, Bayzami.
Savio, the former Little Wolf King and one of the top fulcrum players in the Premier League.
France second winger Ruberg.
Plus their midfielders Merant Locke and Mota Wegard are both attacking midfielders.
As a result, the goal difference is still zero.
It's really not excellent.
The two teams behind them also scored more goals than they conceded.
The key is that Everton didn't concede many goals.
In the 18th minute, Luborg counterattacked, but there was no good chance.
Newcastle returned to defense quickly, turning the counterattack into a positional battle.
Luborg was left alone and was eventually intercepted by Tavares.
In the 23rd minute, it was Everton's counterattack.
But Weigard failed to pass the football at all, and was directly intercepted by Lu Yang when there was no passing point.
Then Lu Yang made a direct pass.
Chiesa broke into the penalty area, flew from behind and shot the ball slightly wide of the goal.
This time the goal was very difficult, and Chiesa almost scored the best goal of the round.
Subsequently, Newcastle's offense became more and more powerful.
In just five minutes, Bridge, Reese, and Manjujovic completed their shots.
Reese's shot was the most dangerous, but it was saved by international goalkeeper Deda, who Everton took away from the Brazilian team in the summer.
If it weren't for Deda, Everton would probably have dropped a few places in the rankings.
By the way, Everton's central defender is also a familiar face to everyone...Marinho.
He was the player who was violently beaten by Lu Yang after the World Cup final.
He has only gradually returned to the game in the past month, and he has been recovering from some fractures.
However, with his return, Everton's defensive performance has improved significantly.
After all, he is a Brazilian international. Although his character is poor, he still has abilities.
In the 32nd minute, Boyle made a pass, but his footwork was too sloppy and was caught by Deda.
Deda did not reach the end, but directly kicked out.
The Brazilian goalkeeper is very aggressive.
Weigard stopped the ball outside the penalty area and turned around in one step.
Then the big kick came out, and even Lu Yang came a step too late.
The football flew halfway across the field.
Newcastle's two central defenders retreated wildly.
But a black lightning bolt was much faster than them.
Bayzami started running the 100-meter run.
Boyle, who was supposed to face him, was still near the Everton penalty area and could not return.
Seeing that he could not outrun the "Bolt", Sasso rushed directly towards Bayizami in an attempt to delay him.
But speedy players like Bazami are all too familiar with this type of interception.
Just hit the ball hard!
Instead of going outside, Bayizami cuts inside.
Sasso didn't expect the opponent to be so brave, and made a mistake in judgment. He didn't even have a chance to pull Bayizami away and was eaten alive by Bayizami.
Deas saw the football rolling towards the center and immediately chose to rush over.
He is far closer to football than Bayzami.
Sasso did not expect Bayizami to cut inside, because once he cut inside, Deas was able to complete an interception.
boom!
Deas looked in surprise as Bayizami stabbed the football away from his feet.
Gone!
Passed two people in a row!
Purely by speed!
Nothing fake at all!
Bayzami was briefly hung up by Deas's foot, but he regained his center of gravity as he stumbled.
Lu Yang told Bayizami when he was playing in Sanremo that as a speed player, during the counterattack, if it is not in the penalty area, falling down will become meaningless.
Because opportunities to fight back are rare and often very good.
I don’t say that I have to score a goal, but at least I have to get a penalty kick, otherwise I will miss a good opportunity.
Because of the long distance, Amelucci was unable to attack and was very embarrassed. He could only wait for Bayizami to come over.
After Bayizami entered the penalty area, he slowed down slightly and began to adjust.
boom!
A powerful shot, no feints.
Just one word, quick!
Amerucci thought to himself, no matter what you do, at least you have to ride a bicycle, right?
If you want to cum, you can cum. Aren't you afraid of being looked down upon by girls?
Amelucci made the right decision, but Bayizami's shot was of high quality and Amerucci did not save the ball.
One to zero!
The graduates of the first class stabbed the second class of Saints in the back.
Everton, who was in a passive situation, actually took the lead.
This is different from what most commentators think.
Everyone thought Newcastle would score first today because Newcastle really took control of the situation.
But Everton fought back and scored.
In this way, wouldn't it be more difficult for Newcastle to attack?
Because Everton can set up a bus.
But when the camera found Flick and Lu Yang, there was no panic on their faces.
Because once some teams score a goal, it is almost impossible to score another goal on the court.
Such as Chelsea, such as Atletico Madrid.
But after some teams score a goal, they are more likely to lose.
Because not all teams, coaches, and players can do this defensively well.
There are specialties in the art industry, and Manchester United obviously did not have the ability to squat last season.
There were a little too many games where they opened the scoring but ended up losing.
Although there are some problems with their forward line, with Ronaldo here, the forward task is actually completed.
Instead, it was their problem of always conceding the ball after taking the lead that dragged down the entire team.
For this, the head coach or the coaching staff has the main responsibility.
The botched Maguire was secondary responsible.
And the Everton in front of Lu Yang is also a team that doesn't know how to defend.
They have a great goalkeeper.
But on the back line, except for Marinho, the other players are obviously lacking in ability.
Their defensive midfielder Rasmussen is also good. He was previously known as the Prince of Denmark in Ajax.
But the other two midfielders have nothing to do with defense.
Because as I said before, those are two attacking midfielders.
Both Locke and Weggard have played as wingers in Arsenal and Monaco, and their performances are not bad.
As for squatting, what is needed is the dual expertise of the defense line and the midfield line.
Sometimes he even needs help from the front line.
Even if Everton has the will, they don't have the ability.
On the contrary, Everton squatted and handed all the ball to Newcastle.
This gives Bridge a lot of room to play.
And without confrontation or pressing, Bridge is definitely an excellent frontcourt offensive core.
"Bridge passed the ball to the back, and his thinking was clear! Unfortunately, Everton was defensive about the back. Chiesa was stuck by Marinho and failed to win the ball."
"Bridge took a corner kick and Manjujovic missed the header! Alas, we almost scored! What a pity!"
"Bridge and Manjujovic hit the wall to cooperate, and then passed the ball straight to Sauber, and Sauber's shot... hit Rasmussen!"
"Boyle passed the ball back, Bridge made another through pass, and Lu Yang intercepted the football in the penalty area. He did not hit the goal directly because Marinho blocked the ball in front."
"Rasmussen rushed over and stretched out his feet to steal. This was a good defensive cooperation between the midfielder and the center back. One blocked and the other grabbed, the division of labor was clear!"
"Lu Yang pulled the ball in a V-shape, circled his heel and sent the football to his other side... Oh! He fell to the ground! Lu Yang fell to the ground!"
"Rasmussen didn't grab the ball, but he kicked Lu Yang's ankle! This is really serious!"
"Penalty kick! The referee showed Rasmussen a yellow card! And awarded Newcastle a penalty kick!"
"It's so dramatic. The Everton coach's prediction before the game came true! Newcastle got another penalty kick! But I don't think anyone can say anything wrong with this penalty kick. No matter who takes the penalty, this It’s all a penalty because the process is so clear!”
Everton goalkeeper Deda watched clearly from the sidelines.
It was definitely a penalty kick.
But... this was a penalty kick deliberately created by Lu Yang.
Faced with a through ball into the penalty area, even if there are people in front of him, for a player of Lu Yang's level, the first choice is always to shoot as soon as possible.
Even though Marinho is in front, Lu Yang's shooting skills are enough to give him the confidence to let the football avoid Marinho, but at the same time he still poses a goal threat.
But he didn't do that.
He directly stepped on the football, which was an unconventional move in itself.
Who will step on the ball in the penalty area?
After stepping on the ball, there is almost no room for processing.
This one stops the football in front of him and a distance away from him, and the effect is completely different.
That's this step.
Rasmussen thought he had a chance to steal, so he made a decisive move in the penalty area.
When he took off his foot, the football was in front of Lu Yang's ankle.
That is... Rasmussen's foot - football - Lu Yang's right foot.
Lu Yang's left foot is on top of the football, which is in the same position as the football.
But when Rasmussen stretched out his foot, Lu Yang stepped on the ball with his left foot and pulled it, then used the instep of his left foot to hook the football from the heel of his right foot to the right side of his right foot.
At this time, the picture became - Rasmussen's foot - Lu Yang's right foot - football.
Lu Yang's left foot was behind the football.
Therefore, Rasmussen kicked Lu Yang's right ankle directly.
This technical action of pulling the ball in a V shape has a strong ability to draw fouls.
If Lu Yang had chosen to turn his left foot to the right and block the football, he would have been kicked by Rasmussen in advance, which would have resulted in no foul and a wasted fall.
Because in that case, Lu Yang's feet and the opponent's feet were running in both directions.
But after pulling the ball around, it moves in the same direction as the opponent's feet, which can give you a little more time.
And after pulling the ball around, it will be clearer and there will be no doubts.
Otherwise, even if Rasmussen kicked Lu Yang's left foot, it would be easy for people to question whether he kicked the left foot first or the football first.
It won't be like now. Even on Everton's bench, only their head coach Sheldru was shouting "why" in dissatisfaction!
Lu Yang stood at the penalty spot and started to retreat after positioning himself.
Deda was quite nervous.
Because he was once scored five goals in twenty minutes by this man.
Sad to lose the Hercules Cup.
Three seconds later.
Bang!
Newcastle's home court was immediately shaken.
Deda lay on the ground and shook his head helplessly.
"One to one! Lu Yang scored a penalty kick to help Newcastle equalize the score! According to their momentum in the first half, Everton will be quite passive next!"
"This is also another goal scored by Lu Yang. So far, he has only missed one penalty kick in his career, but he then missed a penalty kick. In other words, for Lu Yang, penalty kicks are It’s like scoring one goal!”
"Everton fans previously called Newcastle United Point Castle United, which I think is unfair."
"Maybe they should call Lu Yang Lu Dian!"
