My uncle is Inzaghi

Chapter 17 Playing to win

"These English people have really bad mouths."

Li Mo's heart was not as calm as his appearance.

It was about to be his first appearance in a professional league.

How could there not be any fluctuation in my heart?

He is not a stone.

But to say how excited it is is actually not necessarily true.

Li Mo had imagined this scene countless times.

But when this scene really comes.

Li Mo was not so excited anymore.

He joined the Milan echelon at the age of seven and is now seventeen.

Ten years of preparation are all for this day.

"The most important thing for a striker is to always stay calm!"

Li Mo’s first football teacher was Inzaghi.

Every time he saw Li Mo using his speed to get past his opponent and choose a explosive shot, he would come and emphasize this point to him.

Now Li Mo's speed is gone.

What is there to say?

Only by slowing down can you slowly appreciate the journey.

After Li Mo no longer had the talent to bully opponents with speed, he realized how reasonable some of Inzaghi's words in the past were.

football.

Not just physically.

The brain is also very important.

Milan, San Siro stands.

At this moment, AC Milan is playing against Naples at home, and the score is still zero to zero.

Inzaghi, who was sitting in the stands, came here with his youth team players.

In fact, if he had to choose, he would rather choose to watch football at home with his family, watching the Arsenal game - because Li Mo was selected for the squad.

And unlike outside speculation, Inzaghi knew Li Mo's abilities.

If he enters the squad, he has a high probability of getting a substitute appearance!

buzzing.

Just now.

The phone in Inzaghi's pocket vibrated.

He took out his phone.

[Love each other as a family] The information in the group is almost bursting.

Martina: Ahhh! My baby is coming! Coming off the bench!
  Tommaso: Come on, cousin! !
  Niece: Picture screenshot.jpg
  Simone: So why don't we go to England? Damn, what a pity, this is my eldest nephew’s debut! !

Li Mo is coming on as a substitute!

Inzaghi was refreshed and a smile appeared on his face.

But this smile was soon interrupted by a regretful sigh.

"Be careful. Cavani! Ahhhh."

Inzaghi, who couldn't hold back his smile, looked up.

Cavani, who only saw the Napoli striker, was celebrating wildly.

The score was changed.

AC Milan trailed 0 to 1! !
  Inzaghi appeared in the live broadcast with a smile on his face.

Inzaghi quickly suppressed his smile.

But at this time many people noticed his smile.

[Milan lost the ball, Inzaghi showed a mysterious smile on his face.]

Such headlines are probably already scheduled.

At this time, Li Mo had finished warming up.

He came to the coach's side.

Wenger put his arm around Li Mo's shoulders and explained the tactics.

"You come on and sit a little further back, behind Giroud"

On the other side, Bald held a tactical board and used magnetic chess pieces to place the positions of Li Mo and other teammates on it.

From the position point of view.

After Li Mo appeared.

Arsenal will change the formation to 442.

Podolski and Cazorla are on both sides and are responsible for passing the ball to the center. Arteta and Diaby are in the middle and are responsible for the connection in the center and the defense of the waist position.

The positions of Li Mo and Giroud are not parallel.

But slightly further back.

"You have to use the cover Giroud gives you to find space and score goals!"

"Understood!" Li Mo nodded repeatedly.

Wenger finally patted Li Mo on the shoulder and said: "Don't be too nervous. This is just an ordinary league game. Just relax and perform normally like you did during training. Playing against a team like Manchester City away from home." , even if we lose the game in the end, it’s not a big deal. Don’t put too much pressure on yourself.” Wenger tried to relieve Li Mo’s pressure.

Balder is right.

In this situation.

It's really not a good time for a young player to make his debut.

In such a game, the opponent is too strong and the pressure is too great.

"Boss, if it's not to win, then what's the purpose of replacing me?" Li Mo asked strangely.

Wenger froze.

He slapped his forehead suddenly.

The corners of the mouth rise.

That trace of curvature can hardly be concealed.

He has seen a lot of top players.

He was convinced.

Just rely on Li Mo's mentality.

his future.

Unlimited!

Two million bought a top player!
  This may be the best deal Arsenal has made in recent years!
  He patted Li Mo's shoulder hard.

"You're right! Lee!" Wenger said fiercely, "You play to win!"

"Go all out! Fight for victory!!"

Li Mo immediately said loudly: "Just wait and see! BOSS!"

My big ax has been thirsty for a long time!

The fourth official on the sidelines held up a substitution sign.

Off on the 14th, on the 19nd!

There is a dead ball on the field at this time.

Walcott saw the substitution card on the sidelines.

Any trace of luck in his heart was completely gone.

Li Mo is his competitor! !

Before this, he had failed to seize several opportunities.

There is nothing to say about being substituted now.

Walcott ran down the court a little depressed.

After high-fiving Li Mo, he finally said "Come on" in a very graceful manner.

"Thank you."

Li Mo patted Walcott on the back.

The competitive relationship on the court does not mean that he and Walcott have a bad relationship and have never been in contact with each other.

not to mention.
  Walcott also brought himself an [Explosive Power Module].

For this reason, Li Mo felt that he should treat Walcott to dinner.

Li Mo ran toward the court while gesticulating and loudly explaining the new tactics to his teammates while running towards his position.

Simultaneously.

The television broadcast also locked onto him.

"Li Mo came on and replaced Walcott. Arsenal made the first substitution of the game."

In the commentary box.

Sky Sports' ace commentator Andy Gray said.

beside him.

Two guest commentators.

It happened to be Martin Keum and Gary Neville who had a verbal confrontation surrounding Li Mo some time ago.

"Hey! Gary, did you see that! He came on as a substitute in the fifty-eighth minute of the game! He will get at least thirty more minutes of game time in this game!"

Martin looked at Gary Neville and smiled.

"What this means is very clear when you think about it."

Gary Neville certainly knows what this means.

This shows that Wenger really uses Li Mo as a regular substitute.

It is very normal for a regular substitute player to get a starting opportunity in certain games.

therefore
  This season, Li Mo has a high probability of getting a starting opportunity in certain games.

But Gary Neville will not give up easily.

"I don't think it's a good idea to replace Li Mo in this situation. It's really not a good time to make a debut."

"If he fails to play well in this game, it's not certain whether he will have a chance to come on as a substitute in the future!"

Gary Neville made a sound from his nose.

said coldly.
