The sweeping army of the greenery

Chapter 2
Liverpool is a port city, the capital of Merseyside, England, and the scenery is not bad.It is the best tourist city in the UK identified by the British National Tourist Board.

The Beatles Museum, Liverpool Cathedral, Chinatown and more are all worth seeing.

Except for these attractions, Liverpool itself is not a big city, and its scale is incomparable with Barcelona.

After Li Tiancheng reached an agreement with the Liverpool club, he went directly to Liverpool to get acquainted with the city environment, find a place to live, and so on.

After Liverpool and Barcelona ended their wrangling, Li Tiancheng went to the Melwood training base for a medical examination.

Li Tiancheng has not yet signed a professional contract with Barcelona, ​​only an apprentice contract, which is not very binding.

Li Tiancheng is determined to leave, and if Liverpool pays a training fee, Barcelona has nothing to do, and there is no reason to stop him.

Calculating the economic accounts alone, Barcelona will certainly not suffer a loss, after all, Liverpool paid 100 million pounds.

As for whether Barcelona will feel that they have suffered a big loss in the future, it depends on Li Tiancheng's performance.

The Melwood training base is established between Derby and Liverpool, and the transportation is relatively convenient.

Li Tiancheng had just arrived at the Melwood training base, and seeing how old the base was, he still felt a little nervous.

This place is so dilapidated, can it still breed a strong team?La Masia is only nicknamed "Farm", but here is a real farm!

However, after the club CEO Parry and head coach Benitez entered the interior to participate in the medical examination, the impression changed completely!
The training base has a press conference room and there are staff offices for managers and coaches.

There is also a hydrotherapy pool for injured players, but on a smaller scale.

A large gymnasium is provided for players to use and to observe the training of the players' muscles.

The main training ground is fully equipped with drainage and sprinkler irrigation, and equipped with lighting facilities.

There are also two football fields, which are laid with international advanced lawns, and the level of the field is no less than that of Anfield Stadium.

The fitness equipment is controlled by a computer system, and each player has his own physical function status card, which is convenient for querying and storing muscle status.

Overall, it still matches the status of Liverpool's giants, just a little bit!

The medical examination was successfully completed, and Li Tiancheng immediately signed the contract. The content of the contract had been negotiated long ago, with a weekly salary of 1.5 pounds for a period of four years.

He is 17 years old, 1.7 meters tall, and weighs 75 kilograms. He is excellent in all aspects and has a relatively well-proportioned body, but his muscle strength is enough for ordinary competitions.

Muscle function test, running ability test, etc., the results are all excellent!

The results of the physical examination were excellent, and Liverpool dispelled the last trace of doubt.

The two parties successfully reached a contract. Of course, a supplementary signature from Li Tiancheng's guardian is required.

Of course, Li Tiancheng had informed, er, persuaded his parents to agree to the transfer. In fact, they were all used to their son's dictatorship, especially in football.

After the signing was completed, Li Tiancheng had just arrived at Anfield. Li Tiancheng met Liverpool captain Steven Gerrard, who seemed to have arrived in a hurry.

"Tiancheng Li, I've heard of you a long time ago, welcome to Liverpool."

Gerald shook Li Tiancheng's hand, "Sorry, buddy, I have some personal matters to deal with, so I couldn't come in time."

"Uh, to be honest, I didn't expect you to show up in a few days." Li Tiancheng said truthfully.

Gerrard laughed: "How is that possible? Of course I have to welcome young talents like you to join us. We at Liverpool have always valued talents."

The two walked towards the inside of the stadium talking and laughing.

Li Tiancheng admired secretly, this captain is really charismatic.

Gerrard is currently being pursued by Real Madrid, Manchester United, and Chelsea. Li Tiancheng was still wondering whether the Red Army could retain their captain.

"It doesn't seem to be a big problem now." Li Tiancheng made up his mind.

Gerrard accompanied Li Tiancheng to visit the Anfield Stadium.

The Anfield stadium is red from inside to outside, which makes Li Tiancheng feel very stable in his heart.

What caught Li Tiancheng the most was the famous adage:
"This is Anfield"

Li Tiancheng looked at this line of slogans, and was still a little excited.

Visited the honor showroom, the history of Liverpool is very interesting.

Four Champions League titles, two UEFA Super Cup titles, three UEFA Cup titles, [-] English top league titles, six FA Cup titles, and nine League Cup titles.

It is indeed dazzling.

Fourteen Community Shields and four sub-league titles are not worth mentioning.

Of course, one thing is embarrassing. The Premier League has been established for 14 years, and Liverpool has not yet won a Premier League championship.

Li Tiancheng stopped in front of those League One championship trophies and remained silent.

"For a club as great as Liverpool, this is really embarrassing," Gerrard took the initiative to say: "We haven't won the Premier League before, but such an embarrassing history will always end in our hands .”

Li Tiancheng looked around at these shining trophies: "Of course, it is our task to add luster to this place."

"Hahaha, well said!" Gerald's eyes lit up, and he patted Li Tiancheng's shoulder with a smile on his face.

Soon it was time for the joining ceremony, and Li Tiancheng held up the No. 20 jersey with his name "LI TIANCHENG" printed on it, left a photo, and said a few polite words, "Contribute to Liverpool" and the like. People pay attention to him.

Not many reporters attended the press conference, most of them came for Benitez and Gerrard,

As for Li Tiancheng?
genius?

Europe is not China. There are many football geniuses. Many players were not inferior to Li Tiancheng when they were young, but in the end they failed to make a name for themselves in the professional arena.

These guys don't care about young talent.

"Is there any signing target for Liverpool this year?"

"Is Liverpool planning to follow Manchester United and work hard to develop the Far East market?"

"Is Liverpool aiming to win the FA Youth Cup next season?"

……

Questions like this are flying around.

"Lee's joining is not to enrich the youth training academy. We are sure that Li is a genius and will never be inferior to Rooney. He can contribute to the team now."

Benitez swears, but the result is only a burst of laughter from the audience.

The press officer promptly ended the press conference.

After the debut ceremony, Benitez left first. In the Premier League, the coach still bears the responsibility of the manager. Benitez is really busy.

"Don't worry about it. If you are provoked by them, you will be fooled. These paparazzi will do anything to make a fuss. It is a common method to irritate the person concerned by saying harsh words, and make people lose their composure." Gerald tried to comfort Li natural.

"Heh, I've seen a lot of these methods before, I'm not that naive, and I won't let them easily influence you." Li Tiancheng put on a smile on his face, looking very relaxed.

"That's good..." Gerrard looked relieved.

After saying goodbye to Gerrard, Li Tiancheng returned to the villa he had rented a long time ago.

Just as he was going to the backyard to familiarize himself with the training ground, the phone rang.

Picking it up, Li Tiancheng was a little surprised: "Hi, Leo."

Just after saying hello, Li Tiancheng had to move the phone away from his ear.

"Lee, seeing you holding up the Liverpool jersey, why did you go to Liverpool? You left La Masia? We agreed to go to the first team together and fight for everything for Barcelona..."

"Okay, Leo, don't be so excited." Li Tiancheng interrupted Messi's incoherent shouting: "I did sign with Liverpool."

Messi stuck his shell: "Why?" How can you betray the agreement?

"Because I didn't wait for the first-team contract, I waited for a year, and only the B-team contract came, so I didn't sign it." Li Tiancheng was very calm.

"Just for this? You should know that as long as you sign a professional contract, you may be promoted to the first team at any time." Messi still couldn't understand.

"Maybe, but I don't accept it!" Li Tiancheng did not refute.

Messi: ...

It's really something Li would do, he is always so staunch.

"Leo, we are all in the first team now." Li Tiancheng was a little happy: "Our competition has restarted. If you played professionally in the youth team first, you will win first."

"Next, it's the professional arena, don't fall behind!"

"Okay." Messi agreed, and his frustration was swept away: "Then let's try again, how to compare?"

"The league and the Champions League are taken out separately..."

"..."

"..."

After hanging up the phone, Li Tiancheng smiled all over his face. He was much happier than signing a professional contract at the moment.

A rematch with Messi?That's a great idea, or I'm a genius!

"Li, come here!"

Li Tiancheng's good mood was suddenly interrupted, what happened to Jose?
