Chapter 285 Hey, rookie, welcome to the Premier League

Currently in the five major leagues, Messi and Ronaldo are the only active stars who have scored [-] league goals in a single season.

Not to mention the other stars scoring [-] league goals, there are only a handful of them who can score [-] goals.

Among them, the difficulty of scoring in Serie A and the Premier League is higher than that of several other leagues.

It can be said that if Li Mo can break the [-]-goal mark in a single season in the Premier League, the gold content is absolutely beyond doubt, and there will be many fewer fans who say he is a brush.

And in recent years, the fans who always watch Messi and Ronaldo fighting for hegemony have more or less felt a little tired. Li Mo's rise is what they are happy to see.

It is always better for three people to fight for supremacy than two players in football. In addition, Li Mo currently represents the rise of a big center. Many fans who like centers quickly joined Li Mo's supporters.

The two of Melo and Li Mo, the left and right wingers and the center are working together directly. Now the three favorite offensive positions of the fans have stars who can support them. The center fans don't have to look at the faces of other fans anymore. Confidence greatly increased.

Although Li Mo doesn't have any champions to win at the moment, his performance on the court is impressive enough.

The UEFA Champions League overwhelmed Melo, and the league statistics also slightly overwhelmed Messi, but the small pressure is also considered a pressure. With this performance, the fans who support him are not afraid of others' refutation.

After all, no matter how others use honor to suppress people, they can directly show the data for comparison. This tactic has silenced many star supporters.

Melo's statistics this season can't compare with Li Mo's, and the stars they support can't stand it even more, it's just a blast.

Amidst the quarrels of all parties, Li Mo's enthusiasm is getting higher and higher, and he seems to share the flow with Ronaldo Messi equally.

So when he scored his No. 17 league goals this season, whether it is fans who support him or support Melo, they are now focusing on whether he can break the league's [-]-goal mark in a single season. Come up.

Unknowingly, even Melo's fans indirectly admitted that the current Li Mo has grown to the point where he can pose a threat to the two.

As for the other forwards in the Premier League, Van Persie, Aguero and Suarez can no longer be regarded as Li Mo's competitors.

It's a very simple reason. Fans of Shuangjiao reluctantly regard Li Mo as the opponent of their idol. If they use other players to belittle Li Mo, wouldn't that be equal to indirectly belittling their own idol?
They will not do this kind of "losing business".

However, just when Li Mo's fans were about to take another wave of face-to-face output, Speed ​​waved his hand and replaced Li Mo, who had performed a hat-trick in the halftime, and asked Vardy to go up to find his status. Preparations were made for the competition three days later.

The old handsome guy doesn't care how the outside fans' public opinion develops, all he wants is victory, uninterrupted victory, and seize every possible opportunity to speed up the team's overall run-in.

Besides, since last season, Sheffield United has always shown some kindness towards the middle and lower teams. Li Mo scored three goals in the first half. Could it be a hat-trick in the second half?
Today Li Mo is really going to catch Wigan Athletic to score six goals, and the Wigan Athletic players who were rushed may take away a Sheffield United player immediately.

Don't think that this kind of situation will not happen. Not all players can maintain their sanity in the situation of being blasted. There are too many malicious injuries in football. They are all bloody lessons. Will bet on the health of his players.

Li Mo naturally has no objection to this, but this kind of clock-in and off-duty mode always makes him feel weird.

In the previous life, I always heard that the Warriors in the basketball world would play like this, but it is rare for such a situation to happen in the football world.

However, Sheffield United is indeed very stable with a three-goal lead, and Speed ​​knows it well, and Li Mo has nothing to worry about.

The final result, as Li Mo expected, Sheffield United did not give Wigan Athletic any chance, and finally ended the away trip with a score of 4-0.

In the second half, Sheffield United still firmly controlled the situation on the field. After Vardy came on the field to catch a pass from Kevin Dirk and scored a goal, Sheffield United also retreated.

Wigan Athletic, who was blown out, faced a situation of four goals behind, and it was impossible to fight.

However, the loss to Sheffield United was originally expected by the Wigan Athletic players, and the score of 0-4 was barely acceptable, but it was hard for today's home fans, and the mentality was directly affected by Li Mo's hat-trick in the first half To the whole collapse.

After the game, the Sheffield United team rushed back to Sheffield directly by bus.

Because he will go to the away game against Aston Villa in three days, Speed ​​can only give the players who played the game half a day off, and will have to start recovery training tomorrow afternoon.

Li Mo also gave a few instructions to his teammates who love to play. During this period of time, the competition was very intensive. Counting from the league on November 11th to the end of the No. 27 league round on December 12th, they had to play three league games Plus a Champions League group match.

Counting it down to four games in twelve days, even with the guarantee of rotation, if anyone loses the chain at this critical moment of grabbing points, he will definitely have to "enjoy" the Speed ​​hair dryer.

After more than a week of tight schedule, as long as you get enough points, you can play again at that time, and you will feel more relaxed.

Li Mo didn't want to meddle in the private lives of his teammates. He told the pros and cons in the chat group of the players. Of course, how to choose depends on the personal wishes of the teammates.

Fortunately, the Sheffield United team is now focused on winning the championship, and there are no thorns among the players. Everyone is joking and unifying their thoughts.

After a full rest, the next afternoon, the Sheffield United players in good spirits started a new round of preparations.

At the same time, as December approached, the propaganda war at the end of the year also entered a white-hot stage.

The public opinion positions of both Ronaldo and Messi are red-eyed for this year's Ballon d'Or competition.

However, judging from the recent trend of public opinion, Messi is basically guaranteed to win the Ballon d'Or, but Mendes is still fighting for the last chance.

After all, Ronaldo still has at least one league title, and Messi only won one Copa del Rey last season. In terms of team honor, Ronaldo has the advantage.

But Messi's personal data is completely crushed. In terms of personal performance, the 12-year Ballon d'Or can be said to be Messi, and everyone else ended up running with him.

After all, Messi's performance of scoring 73 goals in a single season is really against the sky. Whether you say he is a big brush, or he is crazy about scoring goals, he can score [-] goals in the season, which is also a performance that other players can't touch at all. .

The only thing Li Mo thinks about this year is to enter the top ten of the Ballon d'Or, and then enter the UEFA Team of the Year.

There will be a Golden Boy Award at the end of the year, but Li Mo himself doesn't think much of it, and the Premier League schedule will be tight at that time, so he will definitely not be able to go to Italy to receive the award in person.

However, Mendes was very prepared for this, and he also helped Li Mo draw up an acceptance speech in advance, so that he would remember to say it when he won the Premier League trophy.

To be honest, it was a bit ashamed, but under Mendes' repeated reminders, Li Mo had to reluctantly agree.

Among the previous Golden Boy Award winners, he should be regarded as the most "big name".

After all, he was the only one who first broke the record and won the League Golden Boot and then won the Golden Boy Award. He had a sense of instantness like a high school student going to elementary school to bully others.

Isco and Hazard are suffering. There is a god-defying Goce in the front, and an even more heaven-defying Li Mo behind them. They are dragged and dragged past the age of the Golden Boy Award .

Untimely yo.
Sheffield United, who is preparing for the game in a low-key manner, will leave for Birmingham after training on the afternoon of the 26th.

Although it is an away trip, Aston Villa today is no longer the majesty of two seasons ago. Last season, Villa succeeded in relegation at the last moment. This season has also been hovering on the edge of the relegation zone. no.

Therefore, the players of Sheffield United are not very nervous. They pay attention to their opponents tactically, but they are very relaxed mentally, especially when the main players are all out today.

To put it bluntly, it is much more difficult for Sheffield United to lose today than to win.

This Villa is even worse than the Wigan Athletic they beat in the last round. The defense is equally bad, and the offensive firepower is the last in the league.

If the owner of Aston Villa in the winter window does not pay for a big change, maybe after the end of this season, Villa will have to be relegated to the British Championship.

Facing such a team, Speed ​​was not polite, and directly let Bell and Li Mo play to their fullest, just as practice.

On December 12st, Sheffield United will face this season's archenemy Manchester United at home.

Not only Manchester United attaches great importance to this duel, but Sheffield United also attaches great importance to it.

And what is better than a big victory to boost the morale of the players before the big game?

So Aston Villa is destined to suffer a lot today. Bale and Li Mo fired with all their strength together, and with the support of the main force in the midfield, the game will not be too miserable, but a four-goal victory with the lowest consumption cannot be escaped. .

Before the game, Speed ​​also kindly stated that Aston Villa is currently in a temporary predicament, and sincerely wished Villa out of the relegation zone as soon as possible, and gained the favor of a wave of Villa fans.

As a result, as soon as he arrived in the locker room that day, Speed ​​waved his arms and shouted that he should not stay strong today. In the first half, he would kick the Aston Villa's ass fiercely, which made the players stunned.

Li Mo kept shaking his head, and told Maguire that the Villa fans had been limped by their boss.

"He understands psychological warfare. Villa fans can't think of it, and Villa players can't think of it. Let's let go today."

In line with the idea of ​​letting Villa fans experience long-term pain rather than short-term pain, Li Mo and his teammates quickly unified their thinking in the locker room.

At the beginning of the game, he attacked directly and hit the hammer hard, so that Villa's players and fans directly gave up their illusions and recognized reality.

This is also for their own good. I have a good idea of ​​my strength, and I will be relegated if I have to. If I don’t wake up, I will really go to the British Championship next year.

"If you think about it this way, we are doing a good deed. We are so kind to Villa's players! If they succeed in relegation this season, shouldn't they treat us to a meal to express their gratitude?"

Hearing Li Mo's unreasonable reasoning and Vardy's shameless words, Maguire rolled his eyes, Bell was even teased and turned aside with a smile, Drinkwater covered his face, as if he didn't know the two of them look.

Under the extremely happy atmosphere in the locker room, Li Mo led his teammates out of the player tunnel laughing and laughing, while the Villa players who were lining up at the side instinctively felt something was wrong.

After the game started in the evening, the players of Villa finally knew how this strange feeling came from.

"Wow! Sheffield United entered the tight rhythm of the audience at the beginning of the game. It was difficult for Aston Villa's midfielders to organize calmly. Holman could only keep passing the ball back to Bannan. And Westwood, Aston Villa were stunned by the ferocity of Sheffield United's press!"

The Sky Sports commentator was a little surprised.

Before the game, Speed ​​was very kind. Why did he work hard at the beginning of the game? This is the rhythm of crushing Aston Villa from the beginning!
Aston Villa's head coach Lambert was also confused.

He didn't have much hope for this game, but Sheffield United shouldn't be so ruthless, right?

It's a fierce attack at the beginning, what a hatred this is, can you still make a good homie?
What about your pre-match blessing from Speed?Talking one after another, but the result is that the intensity starts at the beginning of the game, right?
Lambert subconsciously looked at Sheffield United's bench, but Speed ​​was already sitting among the assistants, covering himself tightly, avoiding Lambert's "eyes chasing" .

Nearly [-] Villa fans at home also reacted, feeling that they had been deceived and booed loudly at Speed's position.

Such a scene almost made Li Mo on the field laugh out loud.

I have seen a lot of booing players, but it is really rare to boo the head coach. Today, Speed ​​can be regarded as helping the Sheffield United players attract the main firepower. It will be a few years later, and the fans of Huaguo will inevitably brush up. Post a sentence on the screen:
"He really, I cried to death!"

The old handsome guy huddled on the coach's bench and did not move, but the Sheffield United players who had received clear tactical instructions were completely rude.

Just to press and beat!
After grabbing the ball, Li Mo and Vardy directly pressed into Aston Villa's penalty area. Joaquin held the ball and waited for the two full-backs on the side to set up, and then began to attack in turn.

Although it is said that the center Benteke introduced by Villa this season has been used as a counterattack fulcrum in Sheffield United's half, which has caused a certain amount of defensive pressure on Sheffield United.

But Benteke's striker partner Abanglaho, who started the game today, played very poorly, wasting Villa's few chances to counterattack.

Seeing this, Drinkwater directly handed over Benteke to Matic and Maguire behind to "take care" and continued to direct the team to press forward as a whole, keep the offensive, and don't give up until they score. His posture made the Villa fans tremble with fear.

Joaquin is in great shape after getting plenty of rest.

He does not directly want to establish a connection with Li Mo in the frontcourt like De Bruyne, but through frequent movement and distribution of the ball, he constantly creates momentum for his teammates on the wing and the rib area of ​​​​the right half. space.

And Bale on the left is very direct.

Either it is to cross positions with Li Mo and pull Aston Villa's defense, or to get a chance to go straight to the end.

He doesn't need to waste energy on offensive organization, he just needs to blow up Aston Villa's defense on the right.

The simple and rude forced overtaking was beyond the reach of Villa's defenders.

Because Li Mo is almost bound to Bell today, standing beside Bell, if Villa dares to double-team Bell, Li Mo will be able to catch the ball on the weak side of defense.

Faced with such a situation, Villa's central defender didn't dare to move lightly at all, and could only keep calling the midfielder to return to defense.

The space left by the midfielder will soon be occupied by Matt Ridge or Drinkwater, forming a second offensive echelon. The offensive is like a wave, wave after wave, hitting Aspen Dunville is miserable.

Benteke was also speechless.

At this time, although Villa has a lot of defensive pressure, it is also extremely threatening to counterattack.

After all, Sheffield United has almost only three or four defensive players in the half. When the ball is passed, he attracts at least one defensive player close to him, a header ferry, and a reliable winger. It's an easy two-on-three situation.

If it is replaced by Abanglaho two or three seasons ago, then maybe with Benteke can complete this extremely threatening counterattack.

But the current Abang Raho has degenerated from the star of Vera to the famous nerve knife.

Today happened to be when he was not in good shape again, and Vertonghen could force him to take the ball out of the sideline, so how to counterattack.

Can't fight, you don't have the ability to know?

Benteke's strength is good, especially when he is serious about playing football and unhappy, but this time he will be the fulcrum, and no one will follow up behind him. No matter how lethal he is, it's useless.

The backcourt players of Aston Villa, who were pressed hard to breathe, didn't care about counterattacks at this time.

Only ten or so minutes into the game, their defensive system was shaky.

And Sheffield United's offensive players, who have repeatedly entered their hinterland, also showed their murderous intentions, and began to frequently look for opportunities to pass the ball to Li Mo in the penalty area.

This siege, the most difficult part is actually the finishing in front of the goal, but unfortunately, Sheffield United's strongest ability is the finishing ability in front of the goal.

Li Mo added Vardy, who has an outstanding ability to grab points. This pair of forwards looks at the entire European football, and the effect of grabbing points is one of the best.

As long as the shells in the back are delivered in time, today is two waves of shots, and the number of shots can break Villa's gate, depending on whether the goal is scored early or late.

Under Li Mo's constant impact, Aston Villa's double central defender is also suffering.

Clark is alright, he has a level and talent, and Li Mo knows him anyway, but another 21-year-old center back, Nathan Baker, can't put pressure on Li Mo at all.

The height is not bad, but the weight is barely over 80 kg, the fighting ability is not high, and there is not much experience. It is completely to deliver food to Li Mo.

Looking at the central defender with a slightly green face, Li Mo knew why Aston Villa had gotten to this point.

In fact, it doesn't matter if you sell someone or something, as long as the signings from behind can keep up, especially the defense line, as long as there are no major problems in the defense line, with Villa's performance in the past few years, relegation is still very easy.

But if you sold the defenders cleanly and didn't reinforce them, instead you won the lottery and hoped that young players would support the defensive system, that would be too much.

Li Mo felt that it was necessary for Aston Villa's fans and management to be more sober.

Forget about Clark today, he has abused him many times before, staring at the young Nathan Baker, a meaningful smile appeared on the corner of Li Mo's mouth.

This smile made Nathan Baker's heart tighten, but Li Mo didn't make any further moves. Nathan Baker also scratched his head in doubt, and could only post it again to interfere with Li Mo's grabbing points.

"Hey, rookie."

Li Mo raised his arm, indicating that he had stood still, and then turned his head to Nathan Baker for the first time.

Clark was alert, and quickly opened his mouth to remind Nathan Baker: "Don't pay attention to him! Don't distract yourself!"

Seeing this, Li Mo didn't care at all, and continued to speak on his own.

"Actually, it's not your fault. The main responsibility lies with the stupid owner of your club, but since they sent you up, I hope you understand that it's good to have courage. No matter where you play in the future, don't forget yourself. Today's courage, there is "

When he said this, Li Mo suddenly pushed him away with his arm, turned back and ran, and retreated to the edge of the restricted area a little later. Nathan Baker quickly followed and pulled him out, but Clark stared vigilantly at his side Vardy raised his hand.

But in the next moment, Trippier, who made a pass from the wing, made everyone focus back on Li Mo and Nathan Baker.

"Not good! Li just wants to get a space to sprint!"

When Lambert saw Li Mo's movement, he immediately reacted, but Nathan Baker did not immediately block Li Mo's forward path, but pulled him out. This is the fatal result of inexperience. mistake!
Li Mo and Nathan Baker rushed forward almost close together, but Li Mo's power after the explosion was too terrifying. Nathan Baker was almost knocked out of breath, so he could only grit his teeth and drag Li Mo desperately. The jersey followed suit.

But he has no chance to stop Li Mo.

After increasing his speed, Li Mo comfortably stuck Nathan Baker behind him, so facing this biography, he didn't even have to jump with all his strength.

After judging the landing point, Li Mo jumped up slightly and directly shook his head to attack the goal!
The football went straight into the near corner before Villa's goalkeeper Guzan made a save, and Nathan Baker, who was stuck to death by Li Mo, didn't even have a chance to take off, and sat down on the turf, pale with shock. Watching his own goal being easily broken.

Zhan Jun shook his head, feeling a little bit unbearable while being happy.

"It's cruel! Nathan Baker, this young central defender was crushed by Li Mo! The 21-year-old should not have appeared in the Premier League so early, but the club's management and head coach gave He should not give him the trust, I hope this experience will not bring too much shock to his heart, after all, it is not an unacceptable thing to be "lessoned" by Li Mo."

Opening No. 17 minutes, Li Mo once again opened his own goal account, helping Sheffield United get a 1-0 lead in the away game.

Speed, who hadn't shown much before, stood on the sidelines and applauded calmly. His pretentious appearance made Villa coach Lambert on the other side even more angry, and he almost couldn't hold back. I'm going to drop the mineral water aside.

After the goal, Li Mo hooked Vardy's neck and went directly to the corner flag area to celebrate.

Vardy reminded him excitedly that this was his No. 18 league goal this season, but Li Mo was very calm, and even thought about being "kind" to Nathan Baker who was looking over. smile.

He didn't say anything, but Nathan Baker understood what he meant at this moment.

"Hey rookie, welcome to the Premier League!"
