Football's Number One Madman

Chapter 327 Don't play with your phone while playing football!
During the period when the Champions League was in full swing, the England national team announced the training list three weeks later.

Three weeks later, the Three Lions will face Lithuania in the fifth round of World Cup qualifiers at home.

Considering that the opponent is too weak, the head coach Southgate did not call up all the main players. Many famous stars, including Lee Polo, Kane and Rooney, were excluded from the squad by him and replaced by Vardy, Rashford, Lingard, Lallana, Chamberlain, Ali, and even backup candidates like Defoe.

This time, neither the media in England nor Spain had any voices to discuss it.

Because in the entire Group F, England is completely outstanding. Even without Li Polo, they can qualify without pressure, and it is normal to even create one or two tragedies.

But after Li Polo slaughtered Scotland with a score of 10:0 in the last round, the other opponents in Group F now have to consider... how can they not become the second Scotland!
Li Polo was definitely not eligible for the national team, but in the Valencia team, there was another player who was recruited by the Three Lions.

After a lapse of two years, Phil Jones once again entered the national team's squad.

Although today's England, in terms of central defender talent reserves, not only the post-80s veterans such as Cahill and Smalling, but also the new generation of forces such as Stones, Maguire, Michael Keane and Dyer , Jones, who is on loan in La Liga, can get limited attention.

But... who made him hug a thigh that was thick enough?
When Southgate was under pressure and had to inspect Li Polo, Jones' figure naturally entered the head coach's vision.

Benefiting from the overall strength of Valencia, although Jones made occasional mistakes, he was still able to show the bravery and decisiveness of the peak period in the game, especially after having an all-round partner like Van Dijk, Jones' recklessness and frizz , It turned out to be an advantage!
Even Manchester United coach Mourinho admitted euphemistically:

"Phil Jones has always been very talented, as Sir Alex Ferguson has said long ago. It's just that in the fierce Premier League, he is too prone to injury, but in the slower paced La Liga, it is more suitable for him to play. "

Gary Neville would have rebutted him if he hadn't been Manchester United manager:
[Have you watched the Valencia game? 】

[I, a team whose main tactics are full-court pressing, will be slower than a head coach who is good at driving the bus? 】

[Do you want to compare the average running distance per game? 】

[Li Polo, Figuli, Rodrigo, DePaulo, Parejo, Perez, Gaya, Cancelo... almost all of these main players are long-distance runners with an average of 13-14 kilometers per game.Look at Manchester United, Ibrahimovic, Rooney, Martial, Mkhitaryan, Fellaini, Mata, Carrick, which one can reach the average level of Valencia? 】
-
After gnawing down the two hard bones of Atletico Madrid and Tottenham in a row, Gary Neville felt his teeth a little sour.

Although Valencia won all these two games and the morale of the team was very high, judging from the information fed back by the team doctor, the players' physical fitness was still greatly consumed.

Captains Parejo and Rodrygo have basically recovered from their injuries and can participate in recovery training, but Cancelo was kicked by Ali in the game against Tottenham and injured his ankle, and needs at least three weeks of recuperation...

Fortunately, the opponent of the Portuguese national team is only the Hungarian team, otherwise the captain Ronaldo must hate Tottenham!

"This round is home to Sporting Gijon, and the next round is away to Barcelona..."

Looking at the schedule, Worrow immediately made a suggestion:
"Is this round full rotation?"

Big Neville nodded slightly:

"Let's play 442 instead, and the striker only needs two."

Little Neville hesitated and asked:
"Which two?"

His elder brother glared at him:
"Mina and Munir!"

The little brother lowered his voice:
"Are you sure you want him to go home and rest?"

The courageous Ouchi was about to say confidently, "Sporting Gijon, I can easily catch it", but he thought about it, but he still didn't finish his words:

"How can he go home and rest with a salary of hundreds of thousands a week?"

"Just let him sit on the bench for 90 minutes and feel the pressure of the competition!"
-
On March 3, Lee Polo stretched himself on the bench.

While watching his teammates besiege the 19th-ranked Sporting Gijon, he communicated with his partner, Lisanna's brother Mike Taylor, about the development of the new Wimbledon stadium.

"The last time you proposed, I have entrusted a professional team to evaluate it, and the result did not disappoint you. As long as it runs smoothly, profits can be expected."

Mike's execution ability is not bad, and he has completed the work of market research, preliminary evaluation, land selection and team formation in only four weeks.

"The question now is, how much can you get?"

Lee Polo opened his bank account casually, and inside it lay the annual sponsorship fees prepaid by several sponsors during the Chinese New Year.

Out of vanity, he slightly inflated the figure:
"All my money has been used to repair the stadium. Now I only have 5000 million, or Euros. Is it enough for the early start?"

The phone screen was silent for several minutes before vibrating again:
"Hell, are all football players this rich now?"

"You only played professional football for two years, right?"

Li Poluo was also silent, and slowly replied:

"No, it's been three years! You, the new president of the Wimbledon Fans Association, how come you forgot my glorious days in the Crazy Gang?"

Mike rolled his eyes across the channel:

"Playing in the League Two team, can that be called making money?"

"I know very well that you and Lisanna paid for the opening of the room at that time, but she paid for it!"

This time it was Li Polo's turn to roll his eyes:
[This little girl, why do you tell her biological elder brother everything? 】

[Negative emotions from Li Bo Luo, +1! 】

This is the last dignity of a man! -
"Stop playing with your phone, get ready to warm up!"

Li Polo, who was about to complain about Mike's rumors and slanders, was suddenly elbowed in the face by Zakaria.

He glanced up.

In the first half, Valencia led 1-0 with Schweinsteiger's direct free kick, but was unknowingly equalized by Sporting Gijon...

The second half only started 20 minutes, is it too early to make a substitution now?

In the 66th minute, Li Polo and Zakaria put on the yellow vests and began to warm up on the sidelines.

Ruby, the coach of Sporting Gijon on the opposite side, was bitter at the moment:

[The last scene I expected to see still appeared! 】

[After playing for almost 70 minutes, the physical fitness of Sporting Gijon players has reached the critical point. When they meet the fierce Li Polo, they will be beaten to death in minutes, right? 】

Juan Francisco Ferri, nicknamed "Ruby", served as Barcelona's assistant coach in 2013.It was only because Abelardo, the former coach of Sporting Gijon, resigned voluntarily in January due to poor performance, that he temporarily took over the team that was deep in the relegation zone.

Although Ruby's coaching experience is not rich, he still smelled a hint of danger, so he yelled at the bench for the first time:
"Substitution! Substitution!"

When Li Polo was still moving his joints leisurely, Sporting Gijon replaced three starters in one go!
Ruby removed two forwards and a defensive midfielder and replaced them with a central defender and two defensive midfielders!

5-5-0!

"Oh, gift crab!"

Seeing the opponent's substitutions and adjustments without delay, Gary Neville opened his mouth wide enough to swallow a crab.

His own brother also had a grim expression:
"It's still a step too late!"

Only the experienced Uro shook his head slightly:
"He thought... as long as the substitutions are made, the tie can be kept?"

In the 70th minute, Li Polo, who finished warming up, took off his substitute vest and stood beside the fourth official with Zakaria.

While they were waiting for the dead ball, Barbosa and Llorente combined to stop an onslaught from the other side. Bernat made a precise pass and found Schweinsteiger near the center circle. The German midfielder was in front of no one. While watching the defense, he kicked out an elegant pass with the instep of the outside foot.

The football drew a beautiful arc in mid-air, precisely bypassed the opponent's defense, and found Munir, who was advancing at high speed.

After receiving the ball, Munir made a false shot and swept the ball towards the goal. Mina, who was outflanking the middle, easily hit the empty goal!

2: 1!

Thunderous cheers at the Mestalla Stadium!
Mina, who scored the goal, was celebrating warmly with Munir, who sent the assist, but he heard a burst of more enthusiastic cheers from the stands:
"Polo!"

"Pooolo!!"

"Poooooooolo!!!"

[Negative emotions from Munir, +2! 】

[Mina, +5! 】

[Ruby, +88! 】

Li Poluo glanced at the assistant coach Worrow, tilted his head and asked:
"Should I still play?"
