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

Scoring a goal on his Premier League debut to save the day!

A Chinese-American genius makes a stunning debut!

The Current State of Chinese Football: Oranges grown south of the Huai River are sweet, but those grown north of it are bitter.

A dazzling debut! Do Arsenal regret it now?

Liu Yang's performance in his Premier League debut finally brought him into the view of Chinese fans.

"Who says Chinese people aren't suited to playing football? Liu Yang plays quite well, doesn't he?"

"The last Chinese player to score in the Premier League was Zheng Zhi eight years ago!"

"Also playing against Newcastle!"

"The Newcastle brothers are great! They're really loyal!"

"What Chinese player? He's English!"

"Oh my god, thank goodness! I checked the information, and Liu Yang is an orphan. Under the domestic football training system, he would probably be working in a factory by now..."

Chinese fans have started a new round of complaints.

From "exorbitant foreign player fees" to "forced overseas deployments," from "the earliest team to prepare for the World Cup" to "understand the philosophy of football first," from "Geneva, refund the money" to "shameless."

The content is becoming increasingly simple, and the quality is gradually declining.

The comments section was filled with a cheerful atmosphere.

……

Meanwhile, Arsenal fans were engaged in a heated discussion on the other side.

"Seriously, Arsenal let go of such a strong player?"

"Isn't Wenger the old man who likes to use young players the most?"

"Hahaha, Wenger is probably regretting it to death right now, isn't he?"

"Wenger is really senile. He can't even judge young players anymore, which he used to be good at. He should have been sacked a long time ago."

"This kid has only played one game; it's still uncertain whether he'll be able to perform well in the future."

"Your team is almost out of attacking options, and you're still complaining about someone who can score in the Premier League? Do you have to concede a goal in the next match before you stop being so stubborn?"

Arsenal fans have started another round of complaints, while fans of other teams are either watching the spectacle or coming in to tease them.

From "selling the captain" to "dropping the ball in the spring", from "the four loyal and righteous men" to "we Arsenal are invincible", from "playing against Barcelona and Bayern Munich" to "our factory has collapsed".

The onlookers were increasingly amused, while Arsenal fans became increasingly agitated.

The comments section was filled with a cheerful atmosphere.

……

"Liu, you're playing against your former team next. How do you feel?"

On December 11, during the last training session before the match against Arsenal, Grealish quietly approached Liu Yang, who was practicing shooting.

Head coach Garde didn't notice that this guy was taking the opportunity to slack off; he was on the other side discussing tactics with several defensive players.

These past few days have been a rare good time for him.

The exaggerated reports at the pre-race press conference were quickly overshadowed by the post-race reports about Liu Yang.

After the race, he simply said a few humble words at the press conference and praised Liu Yang's performance.

The British media, known for their embellishment, naturally labeled him with tags like "keen eye for talent" and "daring to use troops."

Liu Yang thought for a moment, then shook his head.

"It's not certain whether I'll even get a chance to play."

"Come on, man. We saw your goal in the last game, and we've seen your performance in training these past few days."

"The boss probably just put you on the bench because you haven't played for the senior team before, and he wants you to get used to the rest of us. After another game or two, you'll definitely be a starter..."

The shooting drills then turned to Liu Yang.

The assistant coach tossed a half-high ball, and Liu Yang gently tapped it with the instep, then unleashed a powerful volley.

boom!

Aston Villa's American goalkeeper, Brad Guzan, made a valiant effort to block the ball.

Then he gave Liu Yang a thumbs up.

"Good shot, Liu, good shot!"

In truth, he was already in deep distress.

That kid's shot is so damn hard to catch!

Either it's a shot from a blind spot, or even if it's shot straight at you, it's a shot with tremendous force that makes his arm hurt.

Liu Yang smiled amicably, then turned around and rejoined the back of the queue.

As he walked, he muttered to himself with some dissatisfaction, "It hit too squarely!"

In his mind, his shooting stats had improved slightly.

The kind with many decimal places.

"Don't underestimate yourself, buddy," Grealish said in a low voice as he walked beside him.

"Your shooting is now better than all the other attacking players on the team."

……

Time quickly passed to the afternoon of December 12th.

Villa Park Stadium.

"It's been a while, Liu!"

During the pre-match warm-up, Liu Yang saw Wenger again.

The professor gave him a warm hug and then looked him up and down.

"You've grown taller again? You were about the same height as me before summer even ended!"

"gentlemen……"

Liu Yang's feelings were somewhat complicated at this moment.

He knew the professor wanted to further develop him, and he also knew that the professor did not support his transfer. The professor had also told him that the situation within the Villa team was rather chaotic. However, on the day the transfer was completed, the professor still came to say goodbye to him in person.

Although there is a buy-back clause, given the Arsenal management's track record, he is unlikely to return this season.

"Don't be nervous, little guy. If you get to play, just play your best. I want to see how much you've improved in the last six months."

"But don't play too well. If you score against Arsenal, I'll kick your butt after the game."

The professor's joke eased Liu Yang's complicated emotions.

Arsenal's players also took to the pitch to warm up.

He greeted Liu Yang in a friendly manner when he saw him.

Almost every Arsenal player remembers Liu Yang.

After all, his enormous size was truly impressive.

But they weren't familiar with this young man who had only played for the youth team and had never been selected for the Arsenal's senior team.

After all, an adult team player may have seen dozens or even hundreds of players from their own youth team.

It's impossible to become familiar with everyone.

Only Iwobi, who had been Liu Yang's teammate in the youth team, excitedly grabbed Liu Yang's arm.

"Liu, I made the starting lineup today!"

……

Thanks to Arsenal's popularity, Villa's match garnered significantly more attention than the previous round, even in the far East.

Good evening, viewers. We are now broadcasting live the 16th round of the 2015-16 Premier League season!

"The Aston Villa vs. Arsenal match at home!"

"Arsenal have been plagued by injuries recently, and they want to maintain their top-two position in the league during this difficult period, while also keeping a close eye on Leicester City, the dark horse team currently in first place!"

"Aston Villa, the home team, managed a draw against Newcastle United in the last round thanks to a goal from young player Liu Yang, ending their losing streak. However, the team remains at the bottom of the Premier League table!"

"Here are the starting lineups for both teams in this match."

"Arsenal, the away team, have fielded a 4-3-3 formation!"

Goalkeeper: Cech!

"Defense line: Bellerin, Mertesacker, Koscielny, Monreal!"

Midfielders: Ramsey, Coquelin, Chamberlain!

Forwards: Campbell, Iwobi, Walcott!

"For Villa, Liu Yang, the young player who scored the equalizer in the last match, is still waiting on the bench..."
