Football's Number One Madman

Chapter 692 Open up a new field?

On the first day of 2019, apart from receiving a bunch of messy awards and honors, Lee Polo also accomplished two things:
One is to order a master bedroom bed that can withstand higher pressure.

The second is to think deeply about Lisanna's opinion.

For an ordinary football player, his energy is indeed too strong!
Although he has repeatedly emphasized that he can cope with the intensive schedule of double matches a week or even three matches a week, the coaching team disagrees with him playing every game in a row...

In the confrontation between Li Polo and Conte, he had already gained the upper hand, but Conte insisted on his principles and bottom line on this issue.

Li Polo did not harbor resentment towards Conte because of this, but had new ideas.

Since I'm so physically fit that I'm about to explode, then... can I try to develop a side job?
Like...competing in track and field events that also rely on your body?

The IAAF's annual Diamond League, the biennial World Athletics Championships, and even... the Olympic Games, all of these are projects that gain both fame and fortune!
As a football player, Lee Polo certainly knows the truth of interlacing.

First of all, he is definitely not eligible to directly participate in top events such as the World Championships or the Olympics, because there are thresholds such as rankings and points in the IAAF. He can only accumulate points and climb up the rankings from the lowest level of events.

Secondly, there will inevitably be huge conflicts between the schedules of football and track and field. A large-scale event, from the beginning to the end, often has multiple links such as qualifiers, knockouts, and finals. He may be able to spare two or three days , but it is absolutely impossible to leave the club for ten days and a half months...

He is the most professional athlete!It's absolutely impossible to do stupid things like chasing after the root!

With this bottom line in mind, he called his agent Barnett:

"Jonathan, plan for me, can you participate in a few individual track and field competitions?"

Jonathan Barnett is worthy of being a top sports agent giant. In less than 20 hours, they came up with a preliminary plan.

For Lee Polo's whimsical ideas, Barnett Sr. not only did not scoff at him, criticize him for being whimsical and not doing business properly, but strongly supported him:
"Football is a team sport after all, but track and field is the best stage for individual heroism. I will arrange a professional team to conduct a basic identification of your ability, and then choose the direction of development based on the results. What do you think?"

Lee Polo was very satisfied with his professional attitude.

But for his excessive caution, Lee Polo felt that it was unnecessary:

"Ability identification?"

"Only with my speed and jumping, I can at least participate in sprints, long-distance runs, high jumps, and long jumps, right?"

[Negative emotions from Old Barnett, +66! 】

Old Barnett held his forehead speechlessly:

[Let’s not talk about running, just talk about the high jump. The technical essentials contained in it are much more complicated than you imagined! 】

Professional matters are left to professional personnel to handle, and Li Poluo still completes his own work first.

On January 1, he led Chelsea to sit at Stamford Bridge and ushered in their first opponent in 2, Southampton.

This is the 21st round of the Premier League. The South Coast Saints had only achieved a poor record of 3 wins, 6 draws and 11 losses. They scored 22 goals but conceded 44 goals. Such results can only make them rank in the standings In the penultimate.

In the last round of the match, they were beaten by Manchester City 6:1 at home, and two main players were suspended due to accumulating yellow cards...

All the conditions indicate that this match... will definitely not be an exciting and exciting battle between the two sides!
Last season, the Saints ranked fifth from the bottom, only 5 points higher than the relegation zone. Not only did they fail to regroup this season and return to their own position—at least in the middle of the standings—instead they continued to struggle. Rotten, even all the way down...

Although they put up a formation of three central defenders and double defensive midfielders, they ignored a problem:
If you want to play the power of a lineup, you can't simply accumulate players!

After a round of rest, Hazard opened the scoring with his signature long-range shot, and then handed the stage to his teammates.

Lee Polo scored a hat-trick in the first half, and went even further in the second half, scoring 7 goals!
Coupled with William's success in front of the goal, Cahill also seized a corner kick and scored with a header. With a disparity of 10:0, Chelsea kicked the Saints to hell!

[Negative sentiment from Saints fans across the country, +7481555! 】

The focus of the 21st round is undoubtedly the fourth-ranked Manchester City, who will host the second-ranked Liverpool.

Liverpool is in a hot state this season and is the most likely competitor to threaten Chelsea's league title. In contrast, Manchester City's recent state is a bit too sluggish.

But against such a background, Guardiola directed his disciples to kick out a representative work.

In this game, Liverpool played the main force, but Manchester City's brain, De Bruyne, didn't even start.

The two sides launched high-position oppression and pressing from the beginning. Regardless of red or blue, they made frequent mistakes under such high-intensity pressing.

There are not few excellent opportunities, but the forwards of both sides did not cherish them. In addition, the two Brazilian goalkeepers intend to prove their strengths in front of their competitors, and there was no goal in the entire first half.

In the second half, they changed sides and fought again. With the consumption of physical energy, the goal finally came.

In the 65th minute, Aguero received a cross from the left from the B seat, and after calmly getting rid of Lovren's attack, he scored a cold shot with almost zero angle! 1:0!

After falling behind, Liverpool launched a full-scale attack, but it was not until the 88th minute that they ushered in a real opportunity.

Arnold's cross from the right was too strong, the football flew halfway across the field, and found Robertson on the left. The Scot dribbled the ball into the penalty area and then crossed the middle. Firmino, who outflanked the ball, equalized the score with a header! 1:1!

Just when everyone thought that this powerful duel was about to end in a draw, Sterling, who had been wasting opportunities in the final stage of stoppage time, now moved to the middle. He launched a through ball during the counterattack, and he Sane, who switched positions, went into the left rib of the penalty area and slammed the ball to the upper right corner of the goal with his left foot!

2: 1!

Manchester City, who have never been good at fighting tough battles, completed the lore!

"Yeah!"

Guardiola danced excitedly, but he was only happy for three seconds before his face darkened again.

[What's so happy about it! 】

[We won the second-ranked Liverpool, wouldn't we extend Chelsea's lead by another three points? 】

Liverpool weren't the only team to lose against opponents ranked below them.

In this round, Arsenal, ranked fifth, also overturned.

In the almost full Emirates Stadium, the Gunners attacked aggressively for 90 minutes, but were defeated by the opponent's defensive counterattack tactics 2:1!

Their opponent is none other than the No. 7 new Wimbledon!

After losing to the Kuangbang, the Gunners' ranking slipped one place, and currently ranked 6th is Manchester United who just defeated Newcastle 2-0!

The situation in the Premier League is now more complicated!
But everyone thinks that what has become complicated is only the competition for the fourth place, and has nothing to do with the title of the champion!
