Chapter 48 North London Derby Rewards Settlement

The post-match press conference.

Pochettino looked helpless.

"Our pre-match arrangements were flawless!"

"Cut off Arsenal's play from their own half, and prevent Sanchez and Liu from receiving the ball in the attacking third!"

"And it worked!"

"We scored three goals and forced Kirkland to receive a second yellow card and be sent off!"

"But Liu... he's on a completely different level!"

"He demonstrated his all-around skills and extremely high football intelligence, knowing how to adapt his playing style to the situation on the field!"

"This kid has a powerful shot like Batistuta in attack, and he can also head the ball like him."

"When he drops back into midfield, he plays like a combination of Redondo and Riquelme, and can even tackle and block like Mascherano."

"And he also has Messi's agility and footwork, but he's the same height as Ginobili..."

The young Argentine coach rattled off a long list of names, all of whom were Argentinians.

The reporters looked at each other in bewilderment.

……

On the other side, Wenger smiled kindly.

"Mr. Wenger, while you secured this hard-fought victory, Leicester City were held to a draw away to West Bromwich Albion, leaving you with only two points behind..."

"Ah, this is good news for us, but we won't stop here. We are still the pursuers, and only by giving it our all can we continue to challenge for the championship."

Even so, Wenger was secretly overjoyed.

This was the first time in so many years that he had a positive impression of old man Priss.

"Liu? I don't even know how to praise him properly."

"A change in playing style? No, no, no, that wasn't my command."

"I'm not a football video game player who can manipulate players to decide their next move on the field."

"When Liu was in the youth team, he had a habit of studying the opponents' videotapes."

"His adjustments on the field are entirely based on his brain and the accumulated football intelligence he has built up over the years."

……

In the locker room after the game.

Arsenal players also learned that Leicester City had failed to win.

This further heightened the jubilant players' spirits.

Mertesacker stood up, wanting to say something and lead everyone in chanting slogans.

But his mischievous German junior, Gnabry, poured a bottle of cold water over his head from behind.

Gnabry turned to run, but little did he know that there was an ambush behind him.

Behind him, Iwobi, holding a water bottle in each hand, poured cold water over his head simultaneously.

Several young men huddled together, pouring water over Gnabry's head one after another!

Mertesacker wiped his face and sat down again, with Cazorla, Koscielny, and Cech beside him.

"Alright, let these kids have some fun first before we talk."

Several veterans wore kind, fatherly smiles on their faces.

……

"Wow! That felt great!"

Gnabry didn't retaliate; he simply opened his arms and enjoyed his teammate's shower.

He was the hero of today's decisive goal, so it's only right that he celebrates.

"Hey, we should do this to Liu!"

"He's the biggest hero today!"

The chubby little man wiped his face and shook his wet hair.

"Hey? Where's Liu? Where did Liu go?"

……

While his teammates were celebrating, Liu Yang was called over by the team doctor and sports science advisor.

"Liu, the head coach is worried about your health, so he wants us to do some simple tests to check your muscle fatigue."

Liu Yang was quite moved.

"The professor's concern for young players is truly unparalleled..."

After a brief assessment lasting a few minutes, the team doctor let him go.

"The thigh muscles are slightly overloaded; we'll have a thorough check-up when we get back to the training ground."

"Then we will make recommendations regarding your playing time in the next game."

Next game...

The next match is against Barcelona in the Champions League!

Liu Yang's heart sank.

Despite the significant gap between Arsenal's squad and Barcelona's, coupled with their crushing defeat at home in the first leg, Arsenal are practically out of contention.

But this is his chance to make his Champions League debut...

"Don't be nervous, young man," the team doctor seemed to notice Liu Yang's anxiety and quickly comforted him with a smile, "You're not injured, just a little tired, but we need to prevent you from getting hurt."

"I can give you a little sneak peek: Mr. Wenger said he'll field you in the next game, but as for whether you'll start or come off the bench, and how much playing time you'll get, we'll provide medical advice."

Hearing this, Liu Yang finally felt relieved.

After thanking the team doctor, he walked briskly back to the locker room.

As soon as I entered, several large bottles of cold water were poured over my head.

"hiss……"

Liu Yang gasped in shock from the cold.

"Haha, our hero is back!"

Liu Yang wiped his eyes and saw Gnabry and Iwobi each holding two water bottles, laughing so hard they were doubled over.

And the third person to water it was Mertesacker!

This old guy has a surprisingly strong ability to connect with young people!

……

When Liu Yang got home, it was already past midnight.

He and Gnabry tiptoed into the room so as not to wake Mrs. Stubbs, who was already fast asleep.

After washing up, Liu Yang lay down in bed. Although he was so sleepy that he could barely keep his eyes open, he still forced himself to open the system interface in his mind.

Gnabry's snoring could be faintly heard coming from upstairs.

"Ding dong! Congratulations on completing the instance: 'North London Derby'!"

Reward: Tottenham Legend Chest

-【A Light of Asia.】

- [Exceptional archery skills.]

- [Both feet are capable of long-range shots and crosses.]

Can Asians win the Premier League Golden Boot?

Perhaps you should have done it before him.

- [Congratulations on obtaining the Son Heung-min "Ambidextrous" development module!]

- [Effect Gained: Significantly increases weaker foot performance!]

"Wow, my weak foot has improved! This is great!"

Without the weakness of a weak foot, the players' passing, stopping, dribbling, and shooting will become even more unpredictable.

The tactics are also more flexible, no longer confined to the "left midfielder" or "right midfielder" wing tendencies.

The last Chinese player to be so equally adept with both feet was a woman.

She was nicknamed "Maradona in a Skirt".

Some people can improve their weak foot to a level close to their dominant foot through diligent training.

For example, right-footed player Maldini, after starting to play left-back, practiced his left-footed crossing skills to be just as good as his right-footed ones.

For example, Cristiano Ronaldo can score with long-range shots from 30 yards out using both feet.

Son Heung-min is another example of this.

There are also some true geniuses who are born bipedal.

For example, Cazorla in the team can even take set pieces with both feet.

Another example is Ousmane Dembélé, the rising French star who is making his mark in Rennes.

Furthermore, this is a growth module.

In other words, with future training, Liu Yang's weak foot will improve and become more powerful.
