I AM the Football Star

”After the Hat-trick, Lu Yang Declares War on Arsenal!”

”Nelka: This San Remo is No Threat to Us!”

”Responding with a Hat-trick to a Hat-trick! Poor Andorra Takes the Blame for Arsenal!”

”Premier League Round Four, Arsenal Loses 3-0 at Manchester City! Fluctuating Form? Aiming for Fourth Again This Season?”

”Mr. Winter: We’re Still Adjusting, Fluctuations are Normal. Once Adjusted, Arsenal’s Only Goal Will Be Championships! Champions League, League, FA Cup, We Only Want Titles!”

Arsenal’s bold declaration somewhat eased the embarrassment of the 3-0 loss.

Experienced coaches understand Winter’s strategy, as he is sacrificing himself to create a favorable public opinion environment for the team and players.

There aren’t many head coaches like this now.

Many head coaches nowadays avoid taking responsibility.

In this regard, controversial head coaches are much better than many invisible head coaches.

Of course, invisible head coaches are better than those who claim credit yet also shift blame.

Arsenal’s situation, in fact, brought some trouble to San Remo.

Because in the Champions League, they suffered a 5-2 defeat at the hands of Arsenal.

Now Arsenal was thrashed by Manchester City, who are not even in the top three in the Premier League.

This...

In Sevilla, the fans were celebrating with gongs and drums.

”Now there’s no fear, we can take six points from San Remo!”

”It seems that in our group, only San Remo is the easy pickings. Arsenal isn’t as strong as expected, but still strong. Sporting Lisbon is a bit stronger than anticipated.”

”Lisbon is just impressive because of that young player!”

”Yes, that youngster is too fierce, what’s his name, Chris something? Should we buy him?”

”I think we should!”

”Chris Averro! He’s said to be Lisbon’s super talent! In just one year, he progressed from U16 to U17, then to U18, then the second team, and finally to the first team! Unprecedented!”

”Without his brace, how could Lisbon possibly take three points from us?”

Sevilla fans, in their chats, revealed that they also lost in the first round of the Champions League group stage.

So they are closely watching San Remo’s strength.

After all, they’re all zero-point brothers.

From the first round results, the anticipated scenario of Lisbon and San Remo being weaklings pecking at each other might not happen.

This Sporting Lisbon seems to have ambitions to advance!

And major media outlets also interviewed the well-known character of Sporting Lisbon, Chris Averro!

Reporter: ”Averro, this is your first time participating in the Champions League. What kind of results do you hope to achieve?”

Averro: ”I want to advance with the team.”

Reporter: ”That’s no simple goal. What are your expectations for yourself? How many goals do you plan to score?”

Averro: ”I have six games, so six goals?”

Reporter: ”You’re really optimistic, aren’t you? Hopefully, you can reach your goal. By the way, do you know the player Lu Yang? This is also his first time in the Champions League this year. How many goals do you think he can score in the group stage?”

Averro laughed: ”Of course, I know Lu, he’s last year’s Golden Boy Award winner. This year he even won the Europa League and European Cup. I really like his celebration moves.”

Reporter: ”So is he your idol?”

Averro: ”Rather than an idol, he is more of a rival. He can score a lot, and I don’t know if I can score more than him. But if only one of Lisbon and San Remo can advance, that team will be Sporting Lisbon!”

The reporter’s eyes lit up.

Portuguese Super League’s rising star challenges Serie A’s rising star!

This scene is reminiscent of a year or two ago when Lu Yang challenged La Liga’s Enriquez and Mancini.

Back then, Lu Yang triumphed from the lower ranks.

This time, will it be Averro rising above, or will Lu Yang subdue Averro?

Many fans are expressing their anticipation.

...

September 16th, team training.

”That guy Averro is too arrogant! When we meet him in the Champions League, I must help Brother Lu teach him a lesson!” Moriba was visibly angry.

”Haha, say that after you find a chance to play; he’s a regular starter in Lisbon.” Morici retorted to Moriba.

Although they both share the surname Mor, Morici doesn’t like Moriba, as he often disrupts the team’s rhythm by showing off too much.

Moriba looked puzzled, since when did I have the surname Mor?

”The next Champions League match should be against Lisbon. We’ll know then how good this guy really is.” Delarre said.

”Alright, everyone gather around.” Sotu commanded from the sidelines and then led everyone to the tactics room for tomorrow’s match arrangements.

Tomorrow is Serie A’s fourth round, with San Remo playing away against the current league leader, Juventus!

There are five teams with three straight wins, and Juventus is the only one without a San Remo player.

Korber’s integration has been smooth this season, and Juventus scored four more goals in the first three rounds than before, placing them at the top of the standings due to goal difference.

Many fans are saying that the signing of Korber is a masterstroke.

Juventus’s main lineup basically only changed with Korber, but the effect on the front line is so evident.

How could this occurrence not be praised?

If Korber maintains his performance, by the end of this season, he will be the next Serie A Divine Striker.
