660, fellow, you open the door!
Gerald finally didn't agree.
Although he is very eager for a league championship, he cannot turn back at this time.
This is not "a good horse will not turn back", but it comes from professional ethics.
When joining Los Angeles Galaxy in the summer, the conditions offered by the other party are generous enough. If Gerald only works for them for half a year and returns to his old club, this...is obviously not kind enough.
Even Beckham, after he transferred to the major leagues in 2007, in order to play in the mainstream European leagues in order to participate in the 2010 World Cup in a better state, he loaned AC Milan for nearly two seasons, and even reported that he wanted to transfer permanently in the second season. For this reason... he was mercilessly mocked by Los Angeles Galaxy fans as a "part-time player" and a "selfish pig". It was not until 2012 that he led the team to win the championship that fans truly regarded him as a hero of the city.
The Los Angeles Galaxy has performed very badly this season. If Gerald chooses to return in the new year, in addition to enduring the ridicule of fans, he is also at the risk of default, which is something he doesn't want to see.
In addition, the long-standing conflict between him and Rogers also made it difficult for him to look back at this time.
Long Shute really wants to tell him:
What are American fans?
What is a little liquidated damages?
What is Rogers...
But he still didn't speak.
He is not just a player with some feelings now.

December to January of each season are often called the devil schedule of Premier League teams.
In addition to the extremely dense schedule, it also includes climate and psychological pressure.
The British Isles are typical high-latitude areas. After November, it is basically dark from one to three to four o'clock every day. Recently, Liverpool's afternoon training classes have to be turned on before they can be carried out...
England is already cold and rainy. If you play high-density games in such bad weather, the risk of players being injured will naturally increase greatly. Especially in comparison, other leagues will have holidays and rest, the Premier League arrangements seem even more inhumane.
Think about it, on Christmas and New Year's Day, almost half of the people in the world are reuniting with their families and enjoying the New Year holiday. Only the fools in the Premier League are still performing desperately on the wet and cold courts. Who will have no fluctuations in their hearts?
So at this time, those teams with thin lineups, too many injuries, insufficient bench thickness, and poor psychological quality often experience major ups and downs and eventually withdraw from the championship teams, such as Arsenal, Liverpool, Tottenham, and Everton.
In order to maintain its current good form and reduce the burden on players, Liverpool can only fully play its rotation tactics, rather than just being limited to the cup, because there are only two cup games in December.
On December 2, Liverpool ushered in the beginning of the Devil's schedule.
They were visiting St. Mary's Stadium and challenged their opponents in the quarter-finals of the England League Cup, "Saints" Southampton.
More than a month ago, a fellow villager from the South Coast was a visit to Anfield. Although they once played hard to distinguish with Liverpool with two goals from Senegal winger Mane, they still lost 2-5 to their opponents away with Long Shute.
Perhaps it is because of the affair with the rich, or perhaps it is just to show their strength, Southampton players always act very positive when facing Liverpool...
This time there are still no exceptions.
Less than 50 seconds into the game, Saints midfielder Tadic kicked 50 meters with a long pass, and a black lightning instantly tear open Liverpool's defense!
Still Sadio Mane!
Where can Badstuber, who is 1.9 meters tall, catch up with this sprinter?!
He couldn't even enter within five meters of Mane...!
The second goal of the Red Army Bogdan didn't even react and was pushed into a far corner by Mane! 1-0!
This kind of goal... Even if Long Shute saw it, he could only stare at him!
Unless... exchange his position with Bud and let him chase Mane!
Liverpool was about to sound the horn of the counterattack when the Saints poured a basin of cold water again.
In the 6th minute of the game, Southampton intercepted the ball near the center circle and then advanced overall.
Long Shute directed his teammates to return to defense quickly, and the opponent could not find a good pass for a while, so he could only look for opportunities on the wing.
Advantage Tadic, he used continuous swaying on the left side of the penalty area to completely attract Liverpool's full-back Klein and central defender Bud around him, and then knocked the ball to his teammate Bertrand who was inserted from behind. The former Chelsea player was so happy that he stopped the ball and made a cross.
The football flew straight to the far post, Moreno from 171 jumped high, but lost in the air. Mane from 175 took the initiative to take the ball from behind him without any politeness, and used a precise and powerful header to smash the football into the goal guarded by Bogdan again! 2-0!
St. Mary's Stadium, which can accommodate 32,000 live spectators, is approaching madness at this moment!
You know, since this season, no team has been able to lead Liverpool by two goals!
Especially... their No. 8 player, Long Shute, stood on the court!
-
"It's this Mane again!"
Rogers shook his head speechlessly:
"I have to force me to buy you?! Why do these Southampton players feel as excited as if they have been hit by medicine when they see us?!"
The coaching staff member, Red Army celebrity Mike Marsh nodded seriously:
"Maybe we can really consider Brendan, our lineup... there are actually no wingers in the pure sense. Players like Coutinho, Larana, Milner, and Jay are obviously only considered midfielders, and Ince and Abby have not yet achieved enough growth. If you want to buy people, this Mane should be a good choice to improve our frontcourt speed."
Rogers nodded thoughtfully, then took out a small notebook from his pocket and wrote it down like an enclave.
This is a habit he learned from his master Mourinho. He will remember everything he thinks of. This is also an important reason why he became a master of tactics!
-
A large number of commentators and fans shouted slogans:
"Get up! Liverpool has reached its most dangerous moment!"
"Rogers finally paid a heavy price for rotation!"
"Liverpool is about to bid farewell to the first championship trophy of the season!"
"The former Mr. Golden Globe is heartbreaking and helpless!"
"The Chinese dragon has no choice! A group of substitutes can't help!"
But one person stood up.
Oh, his surname is not Long.
His last name is...Sturridge.
-
In the 24th minute, Joe Allen completed the interception in the middle circle and directly launched a long pass. Sturridge dribbled the ball into the penalty area. Because he was stuck in the middle by two defenders Caulke and Van Dijk, he could only continue to advance along the left rib.
Long Shute's old teammate Sturglenberg had blocked the close-angle, but he still didn't expect that Sturridge would shoot when he lost almost all angles!
The football flew into the net against Steglenberg's toes! Liverpool scored a goal back! 1-2!
Just 3 minutes later, Liverpool's offensive made a comeback. Long Shute made a diagonal pass on the side. Abby made a high pass, Origi headed back and found Emrejan, who was in the middle. The German faced Wan Yama's defense, but inspiring a flash of inspiration came a flirtatious heel hit the ball, knocking the famous Premier League player to the ground.
Zhan, who was in a hot state, did not continue to show off his footwork, but immediately hung the ball over the Saints' defense line. Sturridge Caulke inserted at high speed behind him and stabbed the ball into the goal before the opponent, 2-2!
Sturridge, who scored twice, was so excited that he immediately turned a robot dance in the corner flag area with expressionless expression. Judging from Longshen's unique eyes, although he danced much faster than another Red Army abandoned Crouch, he undoubtedly belonged to the category of awkward dance...
The two goals were lost in three minutes, which caught Southampton off guard, who was playing at home, but Liverpool took advantage of the situation to continue the attack without hesitation. Long Shute and Origi scored twice in succession. When the first half ended, the score had already become 6-2.
The second half was almost terrible. Moreno made a random shot from 30 meters away and found Origi. The latter did not even move. The football took a noticeable refraction on his leg and bounced into the goal!
The Belgian striker was lucky enough to complete the hat trick!
When the score reached 8-2, Rogers finally couldn't sit still.
In the 60th minute, he replaced Sturridge and Longshute with Ince and Henderson one after another.
Stu was replaced to prevent him from being injured unexpectedly, and to replace Long Shute, but he was worried that he would start a big kill in order to score a goal with Origi...
If the score is scored to double digits, everyone's faces will be bad!
Chapter completed!
