Chapter 72 Comparing Speed ​​with Mane

Liverpool's home game against Chelsea in the 23rd round of the 2016-2017 Premier League was only two days away from the end of the fourth round of the FA Cup. However, head coach Klopp did not let the players return to Melwood for training the next day, but gave them a day off, so Li Qing could sleep in the next day.

Of course, in order to impress head coach Klopp in tomorrow's training, Li Qing did not relax at all, and he focused all his attention on training.

There is a saying that is very true, when you can ignore even girls, what can't you do successfully?

On this day, news reports about Li Qing were almost all over the British Isles. Many media used "Young genius fights alone against the wolf pack and leads Liverpool to victory" as the title, attracting a lot of attention from the melon-eating crowd.

The two goals showed Li Qing's super personal ability, and he also had a very high level in the overall view and long pass dispatch.

Some media even called Li Qing the most talented genius in the history of Liverpool Youth Training Academy!

The youngest player to appear in the FA Cup, the youngest player to score in the FA Cup, the youngest player to score twice in the FA Cup, the youngest player to score in the top English tournament, the youngest player to score twice in the top English tournament...

All these titles show that Li Qing is a genius among geniuses.

There are a lot of news reports praising Li Qing, and naturally there will be media that sing the opposite tune.

The Manchester Evening News said on its official INS account that the reason why Li Qing was able to perform well in the first game was entirely because the Wolves' defensive players did not understand Li Qing's characteristics. The overall strength of the Wolves, which came from the lower middle level of the English Championship, was very limited. All these reasons led to Li Qing's outstanding performance...

The official INS account of the Liverpool Echo noticed the Liverpool fans' tag and you fought back to help Li Qing get back on his feet.

Thousands of miles away, most of the football news is about the super performance of the Chinese Li Qing in the FA Cup, and the football emperor has become a battleground for trolls and supporters.

As the person involved, Li Qing turned a deaf ear to the outside world and focused only on training, not even paying attention to the girl.

…

At eight o'clock the next morning, two hours before the start of regular training, Li Qing was the first to arrive at Melwood. He was even earlier than many reporters, which surprised many reporters who arrived in advance.

The training started on time at ten o'clock. The main players who participated in the game the night before and Mane who returned to the team focused on recovery. Other players and substitutes conducted ball training, including Li Qing who came on as a substitute.

The competition started at two o'clock in the afternoon and was divided into two thirty-minute sessions.

In order to be able to enter the Premier League roster at Anfield tomorrow night, Li Qing went all out, leaving his teammates speechless.

Isn't it just a competition?

As for working so hard?

The head coach Klopp and his two assistants Buvac and Kravitz were very surprised, or it would be more appropriate to say that surprise was better. Li Qing's ability was even better than the day before at Anfield.

He actually succeeded in single-handedly challenging the entire defense line in a row, which was simply Liverpool's Messi!

If you want to select the player with the best state and performance in the competition, it must be Li Qing.

After the match, Arnold put his right hand on Li Qing's left shoulder: "Li, did you take stimulants today? Too strong!"

"Hey~"

Li Qing smiled and said, "I want to be on the Premier League squad at Anfield tomorrow night."

Arnold turned his head to look at the coaching bench. Head coach Klopp was discussing something with Buvac and Kravitz. As a veteran, he knew that the boss was deleting six players from the starting lineup.

Why is it a six-man squad?

Because at least one substitute position is reserved for the goalkeeper.

Can he be on the 18-man squad?

This possibility is very small.

The team is currently ranked fourth in the Premier League. If nothing unexpected happens in the home game against the leader Chelsea, Harry Wilson, Woodburn, Ejaria and Stewart, who will participate in the FA Cup in the middle of the week, will not be on the 18-man squad.

The main right back is Klein, Moreno is on the bench, and many good players in the midfield are healthy...

Thinking of this, Arnold shook his head. He is almost 100% out of the 18-man roster, but... Li Qing is different. His characteristics are quite unique in the current team. Coupled with his excellent form, he may really be one of the six substitutes.

At this moment, Firmino's voice came from behind: "Hey~ Li, do you have time?"

Li Qing and Arnold turned around at the same time and saw Firmino on Mane's shoulder. Li Qing asked curiously: "Big White Teeth, what's wrong?"

Firmino rubbed his hands with an extremely obscene expression: "I heard that you are very fast. Are you interested in competing with Sudeep in speed?"

"Ah?" Li Qing pointed at Mane: "Let's compete in speed?"

"Just now Philippe said Sudeep was faster, I didn't believe it, I said you were faster, and we almost had a fight. Fortunately, Jordan separated us. In order to avoid civil strife on the eve of the war, you say... do you want to have a game?"

Coutinho and Henderson raised their middle fingers at Firmino, obviously speechless that he dragged them into the water.

Li Qing gave Firmino a big eye roll. How does this sound like a quarrel that almost led to a fight?

It's just serious nonsense!

After Firmino finished speaking, he said to everyone: "Brothers, do you want to see Lee and Sudeep compete in speed?"

"Yes!"

The Liverpool players at the first-team training ground said almost in unison, and Arnold, who was standing next to Li Qing, was particularly loud.

Mane didn't want to compete with Li Qing in speed, but he didn't want to spoil everyone's fun, so he looked at Li Qing, showing his teeth as white as Firmino, and pointed to the sideline of the court: "From the bottom line to the bottom line."

"I'm still a minor..."

Although men shouldn't compete in speed, Li Qing wanted to know who was the fastest in the team.

So, Li Qing and Mane, instigated by their teammates, went to the bottom line and the right sideline of the training ground.

Klopp, who was discussing the substitute list with Buvac and Kravitz, was disturbed by the noise. He frowned and raised his head, only to see that all the players were standing at the far end laughing and the atmosphere seemed very good, but he didn't know what they were doing.

However, this kind of good team atmosphere seems to have not been seen for a while.

Great!

If this atmosphere and good mentality are maintained until before the game, why can't Chelsea be defeated at Anfield?
