Manchester United's heir apparent, but can't play football.

Chapter 7 Childhood Dreams?
on the plane.

Tom, a member of the Manchester United entourage, is explaining the situation in Wolfsburg to Li Luo.

"Wolfsburg's head coach is Dieter Hecking."

“He is not like Van Gaal.”

"Black Gold's tactics are extremely simple, or rather, concise."

Li Luo nodded seriously: Lao Fan's tactical deployment and personnel arrangement are so complicated. He finished writing it last night, but he couldn't understand it when he got up the next day. He also said that he would try thirteen different defensive combinations in the new season. Goalkeeper De Gea looked helpless when he heard these words.

Tom thought for a moment and tried to summarize Wolfsburg's playing style in the simplest terms.

“Hecking is very pragmatic. In his first season coaching Wolfsburg, he was an interim coach. After taking the reins, he immediately abandoned the complex system and let the players play the simplest version of 4-4-2, thus helping the club go from the relegation zone to 11th place in the league.”

"In the second season, the club bought some players according to his requirements, and Wolfsburg became a flexible system that 'bullies the weak and fears the strong,' using a 4-3-3 formation against weak teams and a 4-5-1 formation against strong teams."

“His flexible 4-3-3 system was broken by Tuchel in the second half of last season.”

"So, Black Gold became the pragmatic 451 again."

"Li, do you know why Wolfsburg plays a defensive counter-attacking style? In the highlights, it looks like they're attacking everyone they're going to attack with?"
"I know, because of De Bruyne, the core of Hecking's tactics is: pass the ball to De Bruyne, and De Bruyne ensures the quality of the transition attack, so Wolfsburg looks like they have a lot of attacks in the highlights."

Li Luo is no longer a complete novice. In the past few days, he has been studying hard and constantly reviewing the game in his mind through the spatial perception module.

At this point, he could fully understand what Tom was saying.

Tom didn't stop there; he continued to explain the characteristics and preferred feet of Wolfsburg's key players.

We didn't exchange more than a few words.

He was surprised to find that Li Luo had already done his homework.

Followed by.

The Manchester United assistant pulled a stack of color-printed documents from a folder: "This is what Mr. Van Gaal asked me to tell you: a comparison of macro data between the Premier League and the Bundesliga last season."

The plane pierced through the thick clouds and slowly landed at Brunswick Airport.

Li Luo carefully summarized the information Tom provided.

Wolfsburg's main tactical framework this season is a 4-5-1 defensive counter-attacking formation.

'De Bruyne is the team's core player, possessing a high degree of freedom. His dominant foot is his right, but his left foot is equally skillful.'

'In 2014, the pace and intensity of those top Bundesliga teams were no less than that of the Premier League.'

I stepped off the plane.

Wolfsburg uniform staff and Volkswagen executives warmly greeted them and politely introduced themselves.

Li Luo couldn't remember so many names at once, and maintained a smile throughout.

The spotlights flashed continuously.

The group didn't linger for long and quickly boarded a business vehicle to leave the airport.

Through the car window, you could see many supporters wearing Manchester United and Wolfsburg jerseys holding up welcome signs.

Li Luo couldn't give any feedback at the moment, so he could only wave and greet them.

The convoy drove in a grand procession along the empty road.

In the very last vehicle, two Wolfsburg uniformed officers were deeply moved:

"Manchester United has a lot of entourage."

"The chef, physical trainer, medical staff, and assistants all serve Li alone."

"After all, it is the crown prince who is leading the expedition."

"Hecking hesitated for a long time. He told the club and Volkswagen Group that he would observe Li's condition through training before deciding on his playing time."

"The club and Volkswagen Group cannot agree to this opinion. Li is a Manchester United prodigy. He scored in his Premier League debut, and his ability is beyond doubt!"

Arrive at the Volkswagen Arena.

German journalists were on high alert, with their cameras and microphones set up. Several thousand Wolfsburg fans sat scattered throughout the stands.

Li Luo puts on the Wolfsburg number 10 jersey.

I bounced the ball a few times.

A burst of enthusiastic cheers erupted from all around!

Someone shouted, "Batigol can't juggle a ball, but our Chinese genius can!"

Startled, Li Luo made a mistake while attempting a rainbow flick.

He was hit in the butt by a soccer ball that flew off the ground.
The cheers remained enthusiastic.

The smiles of German journalists and fans at the scene were full of goodwill, believing that the super genius was being humorous and joking with them to lighten the mood.

After a while.

Li Luo, accompanied by staff, went to the auditorium.

Volkswagen's head, Hans, leaned closer mysteriously: "Li, remember what you're going to say, or I'll increase your endorsement fee by 200 million euros!"

The Chinese boy nodded earnestly.

He was happy to earn money by saying just a few words.

I haven't fully adjusted yet; the money in my bank account feels like a dream.
Accompanied by gentle applause.

Manchester United's prodigy walked into the auditorium and sat in a chair in the center of the stage, with a huge KT board behind him covered with the logos of advertising sponsors.
The expressions on everyone's faces below the stage were filled with anticipation.

Adjust the microphone position slightly.

Li Luo said with a serious expression, "I'm not on loan to the Bundesliga for a vacation. I want to win the championship for Volkswagen Group's Wolfsburg. When I was very young, Wolfsburg's matches and the Volkswagen Group's logo left a deep impression on me."

Adding the words 'Volkswagen Group' brings in 200 million euros.

Hans beamed and clapped his hands excitedly: "All of China and many Asian countries will see Li Luo's speech. It's an amazing product placement!"

clap clap clap!
Wolfsburg reporters and fan representatives were deeply moved. To them, the words of the prodigy Li Luo sounded like: 'My childhood dream was to win a championship for Wolfsburg.'

Thunderous applause erupted in the auditorium and lasted for a long time.

CTV5 broadcast the entire loan signing ceremony live.

Comment area.
-
I've never seen such a grand loan ceremony.
-
Wolfsburg gave the number 10 jersey to Li Luo, which shows how much the club values ​​him.
-
I feel like Wolfsburg is a bit stronger than Manchester United right now? But there are so many strong teams in the Bundesliga, Bayern Munich is an insurmountable mountain.
-
It's a good thing that Chinese players can play in the top five European leagues; they can grow and improve gradually.
-
Hopefully, Manchester United will spend their money wisely next season, and with the return of the heir apparent, they will have a top-tier squad.
-
If Li Luo is bullied in Wolfsburg, we will boycott the public.
-
[Li Luo is 173cm tall. Will he have any female co-stars when he shoots commercials for Volkswagen? Because most European female celebrities and models are taller than him.]
-
Yeah, with that height, he'd probably have a hard time finding a girlfriend over there.

Night falls.

Li Luo moved into the house arranged by the Volkswagen Group.

The house is very close to the training base.

The yard is spacious and has a small football field.

The surrounding greenery is also quite nice.

Tom said, "We live right next door. If you need anything, you can call or yell at me, and I'll come right away."

"it is good."

He bid farewell to everyone.

Li Luo had no interest in touring the interior. He found a well-ventilated room, quickly turned on his laptop, and began watching a video of Wolfsburg.

The spatial perception module in the brain rapidly generates countless geometric patterns.

Two days later.

He's about to report to Wolfsburg's first team and participate in training.

Rakitic teaches you how to manage locker room relationships:
When you join a team, don't try to be friends with everyone. Remember, you are colleagues. Playing smooth combinations with your teammates on the pitch is your job.

If you don't do your job well, it won't matter if all your teammates are your brothers or the head coach is your father.
