Adam Bogdan, Joe Gomez, Mamadou Sarko, Holger Badstuber, Jon Flanagan, Lucas Reva, Adam Larana, Jordan Ibi, Danny Ince, Connor Randall, Divok Origi.

These are the players gathered in front of Long Shute.

Among them, there are even two U18 young players - Jordan Rosette and Pedro Ciriberia.

"If nothing unexpected happens, we will participate in the Europa League four days later. I hope everyone will be ready to play in advance."

Long Shute looked at the slightly empty No. 2 training ground and gave lectures to these teammates.

Some players who have slow brain reactions are obviously confused.

Some people couldn't help asking:

"Is this what the coach means? Why don't I know?"

It was his old teammate Bad Stuper who reacted quickly. The German defender hugged the ignorant young player and said to Long Shute with a smile:

"OK, let's start training!"

Liverpool is no longer the old-fashioned force that was shaky before. The takeover of Chinese capital and the joining of Long Shute are gradually reversing the club's image.

Today is the first day after the fifth round of the league and the first day for Liverpool to resume training.

For most Premier League clubs, if there is nothing particularly important, one or two training sessions will be open to the public every week.

During this time, fans can enter the outside of the training ground to watch the team's training, and licensed media can also conduct limited shooting and interviews.

Of course, this kind of open training course is definitely mainly focused on physical recovery and personal technical training, and important tactical deployments will never appear at this time.

Today, more than 500 fans and dozens of media reporters gathered outside the No. 1 training ground in Melwood.

Of course, the fans wanted to give comfort to the team that had just returned from defeat, but the reporters had a variety of thoughts.

Then they were surprised to find:

In this training ground... there were more than ten players missing!

The most conspicuous one is No. 8, who was sent off with a red card yesterday!

-

"Shocked! Liverpool Core missed the entire training session!"

"Exciting! Long Shute led more than a dozen first-team players to strike together!"

"The generals are not in harmony?! Rogers's position as coach is already in turmoil!"

"Insider! Long Shute was dissatisfied with Rogers' tactical arrangements and forced the club to take action!"

"Domphe! The head coach has been undermined in two months of transfer, and the Chinese dragon reappears the essence of the ball dominance!"

...

How developed the Internet media is? This is no longer the era when filming and interviewing more than ten years ago, then returning to the office to edit information, and it will be available in the newspapers early the next morning.

In just over a dozen minutes, these messy news had spread throughout most of Europe...

As the reporters happily watched the crazy increase in forwarding and comments on the Internet, a ringtone rang over the Melwood Training Base.

"Today's training ends here and disband on the spot!"

Rodgers whistled and signaled the players to go back to their homes and find their mothers.

The reporters waiting outside the barbed wire suddenly felt like they had seen a fat dog, and quickly blocked the players:

"Why are there so many people in the first team today?"

"I lost to my arch rival Manchester United yesterday. Is there something wrong with the team?"

"Why didn't you see Longshute, Sarko, Bad, Larana, and others?"

"Are they banned internally? Or have they stopped training?"

...

Emre Jan, the first to come out, waved impatiently:

"It's all gone, or...you can go to the No. 2 training ground!"

-

The reporters failed to enter the No. 2 training ground because Melwood's security guards kept them hundreds of meters away.

They could only listen to the whistles from afar, and then they saw more than a dozen strong men walking out from there.

"Dragon! Are you in secret training?"

The quick-responsive reporter immediately shouted at them.

He didn't dare to question Long Shute in person, "Are you going to the game?" He knew whether the fiercely tempered Chinese Dragon would ban him casually...

Long Shute waved to him, then went into the players' locker room with his teammates, picked up a piece of soap and started taking a shower.

Although he likes to blow the world in front of the camera, now is not the time to be interviewed.

It is much more difficult to put these substitute teammates together within four days than imagined!

-

Long Shute and Rogers made a very clear division of labor after that conversation:

Luo Tiancai is only responsible for the daily training of the first team, and their training content is only for weekend leagues.

The group stage of the UEFA Cup and the first two games of the League Cup were left to Long Shute and the rotation lineup.

Of course, Luo Tiancai would not hand over everything to the players. He allocated a small half of his coaching team to provide the greatest support to Long Shute.

If Long Shute had not assumed such a responsibility in the Chinese national team, he would probably not be able to take office immediately. But thanks to the stage provided by the Chinese team, he has long been familiar with the work of a head coach. What's more, although these teammates are just rotations, they at least outperform the overall level of Chinese teammates. He doesn't need to teach him step by step from the basic skills of passing and running without the ball, and it's much easier to lead...

Although this rotation lineup is slightly inferior to the first team, there is not much difference, especially Sarco, Bad, and Larana. In terms of strength, they are fully qualified to gain a foothold in the main lineup, but due to their respective problems, they are temporarily placed on the periphery.

As for the wing players, from Longshy's perspective, Klein and Moreno in the first team may not be much better than Flanagan and Gomez...

Long Shute took these teammates to work together at the Melwood training base for three days.

On the fourth day, Rogers finally appeared on the No. 2 training ground.

The head coach told the rotation players very seriously:

"From the moment you become professional players, you know that you have to face countless competitions over the past decade.

Sometimes, you will complain that if you have the opportunity to prove yourself, you will definitely perform better than those main players.

Now... this opportunity has come, and it depends on yours next."

He looked at the light in the eyes of the players. He had never seen these lights in the previous team...

September 18.

City of Bordeaux, France.

There was a booing sound from the beginning of the Shabon Delma Stadium.

Local French TV stations commented on Liverpool's starting lineup:

"The British's arrogance is fully exposed in this starting lineup. More than half of the players on the 18-man roster have not won a starter in the league this season. Do they think... can they easily defeat France's team away with just a group of substitutes?"

"No! Our young men will definitely tell them with the results that it is 2015, not the 1980s when Liverpool dominated Europe! If you want to defeat Bordeaux, you must at least show corresponding respect and sincerity!"

Long Shute looked at the teams opposite with an average rating of less than 80 points, and couldn't help but lick their teeth.

Sorry, he only knows one player in the whole of Bordeaux...

The player's name is Contento, who once played substitutes for Badstuber and Alaba in Bayern Munich!

Unfortunately, for some reason, this little guy didn't appear on the big list today...

Long Shute clenched his fist:

Want respect and sincerity?

sure!
Chapter completed!
