I AM the Football Star

It’s tough.

So, even though Lu Yang is a perfect fit, Lord finds it difficult to truly make up his mind to bring Lu Yang to the Dream Theater.

It’s not because Lu Yang isn’t deserving, but because setting this precedent is too dangerous.

From this perspective, the controversy surrounding C Luo at Manchester United can actually provide some answers.

Since Lord’s tenure, Manchester United has developed a leader culture.

After Lord, Manchester United sought many team leaders, both head coaches and players.

But those people either worked diligently but failed to lead Manchester United to sustained supremacy.

Or they even managed to turn the team into a complete mess.

Manchester United’s worship of leadership has become one of the reasons they fell into the abyss.

Therefore, after being repeatedly harmed by the leader culture, Manchester United erupted completely after Mourinho, and the ”anti-leader culture” appeared.

They want to take back the autonomy handed to Manchester United leaders since the Lord’s era.

They no longer need and trust leaders.

During this period, any coach, staff, or player at Manchester United becomes just an ordinary worker in the eyes of the fans, losing their special halo.

C Luo’s arrival at Manchester United coincided with the peak of Manchester United’s ”anti-leader culture movement,” because the previous manager, Solskjaer, indeed did well with the support of the anti-leader culture.

The reason for these situations is not to be blamed on the fans, not on the players, but only on Lord being too outstanding.

He fulfilled all the fans’ expectations of a leader, making Manchester United fans feel that leaders should lead them to countless incredible successes.

The difference between Averro and Lu Yang is that both Averro and Lu Yang can be invincible warriors against hundreds.

But Lu Yang can also become the absolute calm team brain and the monarch mastered in the way of kings!

Lord also has personal motives.

He only needs Averro, not Lu Yang.

He wants to remain his own Lord, not become San Remo’s Sotu.

...

A whistle blows.

The Champions League match between San Remo and Sevilla officially begins.

This match embodies what it means to have no easy games in the Champions League.

In the first half, Morici made a through pass, tearing through Sevilla.

Talista successfully scored in a fierce confrontation with the opponent’s central defender.

But Talista suffered a lot of nosebleed due to an unconscious elbow hit by the opponent.

The main referee gave Sevilla’s central defender a yellow card.

However, Talista felt this was far from enough.

He’s bleeding!

It’s his first time!

The main referee has no sympathy for this borderline case, warning Talista not to pretend to be innocent.

Talista held a grudge and during the subsequent match, twice participated in defense and knocked down the opponent’s midfielder.

Talista admitted he had a hint of revenge intent.

This is normal.

Many players, after being fiercely knocked down or experiencing misjudgment, will express their anger in the next defense with their attitude.

Talista’s approach is standard practice.

But he didn’t expect Sevilla’s midfield core to be so fragile, experiencing some deformation in the knee when falling.

The cruciate ligament is very likely to have been strained because of this.

The opponent fell to the ground on the spot, holding his leg and crying, until the stretcher came.

Sevilla’s players were therefore very emotionally agitated.

They surrounded Talista.

The main referee came over and gave Talista a yellow card, also resolving the siege for him.

Talista’s action indeed only qualifies for a yellow card.

Whether it was maliciously injuring others, the main referee can still judge.

It can only be said that Talista’s beast-like physique is too strong.

Sevilla made a forced substitution, but the team lost its midfield core, causing some temporary chaos.

The newly debuted midfielder made mistakes under pressure from Morici, mispassing the ball to Kaint.

Kaint, quick-thinking, directly kicked out a long ball for a counterattack.

Bai Zhami sprinted 100 meters in 9.83 seconds, tying the record of Asia’s flying man Su God, devastating everyone, and finally effortlessly scored a solo goal.

San Remo leads two-nil.

But in the second half, things changed dramatically.

Sevilla as a team, in fact, is considered strong.

Their players’ levels aren’t low, and the team also has its mature playing style.

The absence of the midfield core indeed made them play unattractively during a certain stage.

But once adapted, their regular offense kicked in, reducing none of its power.

With two goals in twenty minutes, Sevilla levelled the score before the eightieth minute.

Moreover, their team’s total running distance was two kilometers more than San Remo.

It’s essential to know that San Remo, being young enough, is originally a team that’s very good at running.

Especially Lu Yang and Kaint, practically two Perpetual Motion Machines.

Although Lu Yang’s move to the right winger position means less running.

But... very few teams can suppress San Remo in this aspect.

Sevilla is the only team San Remo has encountered in the past two years that can run even more than them.

With running, coordination, and speed on the flanks.

A team like this is never too poor.

The rule of no weak opponents in the Champions League is proven right on San Remo.

In the eighty-sixth minute.

Talista was pulled down by the opposing central defender after receiving the ball in the penalty area.

A sizeable Talista fell without hesitation.

A beast-mode forward can stand like King Kong when brave.

But when needing fragility, they can fall like dandelions with a puff of wind.
