I'm 1.9 meters tall and weigh 200 pounds, can I pull the hem?

Chapter 11 Can Vera still keep him?

"Goal!"

"It's Liu Yang again!"

"Helping Villa secure last-minute equalizers in two consecutive matches!"

"He scored all three of the team's goals in two matches!"

"And all three goals were invaluable, crucial goals!"

Studio.

- [What a stylish flick shot!]

- [Hanging straight into a blind spot!]

Liu Yang is truly a key player; every goal he scores is a lifesaver!

- [Haha, three consecutive draws!]

Where's the guy who just said he'd eat 20 pounds of shit if Arsenal didn't win? Dinner's ready!

Wenger must be regretting it now; the player he let go in the summer has caused him to lose points!

……

Villa Park stadium was transformed into a sea of joy!

The cheers of tens of thousands of Villa fans were deafening!

Even the banner that read "Almstadt, get out" is gone.

The broadcasters, knowing how to create a good show, focused their cameras on the two head coaches on the sidelines.

With a helpless smile on his face, Wenger shook his head and walked towards the substitutes' bench.

Gard spread his arms and sprinted passionately from the sidelines!

Then, as if he had just remembered something, he shouted at the field.

"Defense! Defense! Time is running out, don't give Arsenal a chance to counter-attack!"

……

Liu Yang raised his arms, palms facing outwards.

This indicates that he will not celebrate.

After all, it was his former employer, the place where he grew up.

But the other teammates didn't care about that.

Traore leaped and landed on Liu Yang's shoulder!

"That was awesome, man! Your shot was absolutely stunning!"

Traore weighs 170 pounds, which is more than 30 pounds lighter than Liu Yang.

Liu Yang still carried him on his back.

But Grealish was the second to pounce, followed by the others.

Everyone pinned Liu Yang to the ground!

……

Some are happy, some are sad.

Cech sat up and pounded the turf hard.

The defenders looked dejected.

Kirkland squatted on the ground, questioning the meaning of life.

Ramsey held his head in his hands, filled with regret.

"If only I could cover faster..."

On the field, captain Mertesacker wore a wry smile.

"What a pity. If we had won this game, we would still have had a chance to overtake Leicester City and move to the top of the Premier League table..."

But he still called his teammates to go to midfield to kick off.

"There's still a chance, the game isn't over yet!"

That being said, both the players on the field and the spectators knew the truth.

Arsenal have substituted most of their attacking players.

With only about a minute left in the game, the chances of scoring another goal are extremely slim.

……

Walcott carried the ball to the center circle.

As soon as the referee blew the whistle to start the game, the ten Villa players on the field immediately adopted a defensive posture, ready to fight back.

Walcott charged forward after kicking off, only to find himself surrounded by a sea of people.

Rosicky's forward pass was blocked by Liu Yang's outstretched leg.

Guy beat Ramsey to the ball and unleashed a powerful flying kick!

boom!

The ball flew into the stands.

Vanished without a trace.

"Beep! Beep! Beep!"

The referee blew the final whistle.

……

"Let's congratulate the tenacious Aston Villa!"

"After trailing by two goals at home, they finally equalized!"

"Undefeated for two consecutive rounds!"

"A glimmer of hope has appeared in their fight to avoid relegation!"

"Liu Yang, the 19-year-old prodigy!"

"Two appearances, three goals!"

"To save the team from dire straits!"

"I wonder if Arsenal's management regrets letting this young player go so easily in the summer transfer window..."

……

The match is over.

The Aston Villa fans throughout the stadium sang "Hi Ho Aston Villa" and cheered for their players.

If defeating relegation rivals Newcastle was a timely help...

So, being able to draw with Arsenal, who are second in the standings, was a completely unexpected and pleasant surprise.

Liu Yang walked off the field amidst cheers from the fans.

I happened to run into Wenger.

"Sorry sir, I still managed to score."

Liu Yang smiled sheepishly, a hint of playfulness on his face.

The professor smiled, raised his leg as if to kick him, but stopped himself.

"Alright, alright, you little rascal, you're always getting me into trouble!"

"Keep playing well in the upcoming matches..."

After chatting for a few minutes, Liu Yang hugged the professor and then walked with his teammates towards their locker room.

Wenger, however, put away his smile and called his players back to the away team's locker room to prepare for a post-match talk.

Neither of them mentioned the buyback clause.

……

Almstadt, inside the private box, was overjoyed.

Two rounds unbeaten, three goals scored.

The team is slowly getting back on track.

Moreover, Liu Yang, whom he strongly advocated for bringing in, has become an instant sensation!

As long as Liu Yang continues to perform consistently, everything will be alright.

Thinking of this, Almstadt almost couldn't help but hum softly.

But his excitement was quickly overshadowed by a shadow.

Wenger is talking to Liu Yang.

The two seemed to be having a pleasant conversation and even hugged.

"No way, can Wenger really convince the management to give him 20 million to buy this kid back?"

Almstadt knew very well that if Liu Yang left, or if his magic faded, the team's chances of avoiding relegation would be precarious with the remaining players.

Although he was very reluctant to admit it, there was a group of people he had strongly advocated buying from.

Thinking of this, Almstadt shook his head.

"What are you thinking? Arsenal's management is so stingy, how could they possibly approve this amount of money?"

"At the very least, it would be the summer transfer window."

"You're just scaring yourself."

……

At the post-match press conference, Garde appeared calm and composed.

The nervousness and anxiety that had plagued them during their previous losing streak were completely gone.

"I've said it many times, Liu is a very talented young man."

"I am very proud of him for achieving such results."

"We will maintain our unbeaten run for the next two rounds and hope to avoid relegation by the end of the season."

The reporters in the audience were editing their news reports with their heads down.

A reporter suddenly raised his hand.

"Mr. Garde, we've heard that Liu Yang's transfer included a buy-back clause. If Arsenal decides to activate it in the winter transfer window, how will you respond?"

Gard was caught off guard by the question.

His English is not very fluent, and his French accent becomes even stronger when he gets nervous.

This is one of the reasons why the British media always focus on reporting on him.

If I say something wrong one day, it will be big news again.

Even if his original words are misinterpreted, the blame can be shifted to "the reporters not understanding his pronunciation."

After a long silence, Gard finally gave a stammering reply.

"...All I can say is that Liu is still a member of Aston Villa, and we will continue to do our best to help him improve, and he will do his best to help the team move forward..."

The reporter who asked the question nodded in satisfaction.

With a flourish of his pen, he drafted the title.

Reports suggest Aston Villa may struggle to retain Liu Yang, and Arsenal may consider buying him back in the winter transfer window.

……

Meanwhile, Arsenal's post-match press conference.

Wenger took full responsibility for the team's failure to win the match.

When asked about Liu Yang's buy-back, Wenger simply said, "He has performed very well, but he is still an Aston Villa player."

Let the reporters report it however they want.

The professor has been in the British football scene for almost twenty years; he's seen all sorts of outrageous reports.

He was even falsely accused of being gay back then.

The reporter who asked the question nodded in satisfaction.

With a flourish of his pen, he drafted the title.
