Chapter 525 Manchester United cannot do without Ling Feng!

As the undisputed king of football in 2017, Premier League giants Manchester United are definitely the biggest winner of this year's Laureus World Sports Awards!
As the Red Devils’ top star, Ling Feng not only won the Best Newcomer of the Year and Best Male Athlete of the Year awards for the first time he was nominated, he also achieved a breakthrough on behalf of the football world and became the first football player to win the Laureus Best Football Player of the Year Award!
In addition to the most dazzling Ling Feng who won two major awards, the Red Devils Manchester United, which won six championships in 2017, also won the Laureus Team of the Year Award!

Since Mourinho was not available to receive the award, Manchester United's global ambassador Sir Alex Ferguson accepted it on his behalf.

Ferguson was also deeply moved by the best team award.

Looking back to the turn of the century, when he led Manchester United to dominate the Premier League and top Europe, he also became the winner of the first Laureus Best Team Award.

Now, eighteen years have passed, and I have retired, but I still have the opportunity to stand on the Lawrence podium again.

Although after his retirement, Manchester United briefly declined and was briefly confused.

But fortunately, he finally found a great captain for his beloved team.

A captain even better than himself!
Therefore, when receiving the award, he also emphasized the great changes that Mourinho brought to the team, and did not forget to mention Ling Feng who scored 100 goals last year.

"When I was still coaching the team, I thought Messi's record of 91 goals in a year was unbreakable,"

"But a young man has proved with his actions that there is no limit to football!"

As soon as he finished speaking, the live camera was also aimed at Ling Feng in the audience.

The latter smiled and raised his hand to touch his left chest to express his gratitude for Ferguson's praise.

"It is an honor for Manchester United and the entire football world to have a rare talent like Ling Feng!"

As one of the world's most famous football coaches and the godfather of Manchester United, Ferguson's high praise for Ling Feng on such an occasion also made Ling Feng very grateful and proud.

Hehe, the old Sir really understands football!
Along with this, this sporting event that attracted worldwide attention was also announced to be over.

After the award ceremony, Ling Feng also fulfilled his little dream of taking a photo with Benedict Cumberbatch at the party.

Afterwards, he posted photos with sports giants such as Ferguson, Federer, Nadal, Hamilton, and a photo of himself holding the "Laureus Newcomer of the Year" and "Laureus Male Athlete of the Year" trophies on social media.

In return, likes, comments and reposts surged at a rocket speed!
The next day, the headlines of all major sports pages were all about Ling Feng’s award!
“No.1 in football!”

"Victory for football!"

“Lawrence the best!”

You know, this award means a lot.

It is not only an honor for Ling Feng personally, but also a great breakthrough for the entire football world in the Laureus Award!

Since the establishment of the Laureus Awards, Messi is the only football player to be nominated for the Best Male Athlete of the Year.

However, even Messi, the five-time Ballon d'Or winner, cannot do this.

But Ling Feng did it!

Many media outlets believe that Lawrence broke the historical convention and made a bold and landmark decision.

In the eyes of many people, the reason why Ling Feng won the award was also due to the series of amazing records he created in football, his social influence and his long-term impact on football, which measured his achievements from a more comprehensive standard.

As the soul figure of the six-time champion and the new Ballon d'Or winner who scored 100 goals in a year, there is no controversy at all about Ling Feng's winning the award!
This first Laureus Male Athlete of the Year trophy in football also greatly raised Ling Feng's status in football.

Most fans who once believed that Ling Feng had not really threatened Messi and Ronaldo's dominance in football have begun to acknowledge a fact.

That is:
Today's Ling Feng is indeed better than the two greatest players, Melo and Ronaldo!
Winning the Laureus Male Athlete of the Year award also made Ling Feng the first Laureus winner in football.

The system's rewards are very generous - a full ten free attribute points!

Of course, for Ling Feng’s current strength, any more free attribute points are just icing on the cake.

However, these are the nutrients he needs to maximize all his attributes!
. . .

After returning from Monaco with honors, Ling Feng received a warm welcome from the club.

Especially Lingard, who directly gave him the nickname "Mr. Lawrence".

The other teammates also followed suit and used this new nickname to call their captain during training.

"Mr. Lawrence, pass the ball!"

"This way, Mr. Lawrence!"

"Good shot! Mr. Lawrence!"

Ling Feng was very generous in dealing with the teasing from his teammates, and simply shut these guys up with a luxurious Chinese meal!
Soon, time has entered March and the Premier League war has reignited!
The Red Devils Manchester United, led by the new Laurence Lawrence Annual Player of the Year winner Ling Feng, faced the challenge of the Blues Chelsea at home.

Since Conte was sacked and Hiddink took over to save the situation, the Blues have indeed stopped their decline.

Especially after the introduction of Giroud, one of the best center forwards in the Premier League, in the winter window, Hazard has more room to play and the team's offense has also improved significantly.

However, facing the Manchester United, which is at its peak, the unstable Chelsea has no chance of winning at all!
In this league game, the team coach Mourinho returned to the coaching bench, and the morale of the team was greatly stabilized.

The core of the team, "Mr. Lawrence" Ling Feng, turned into a master of passing the ball in this game, demonstrating the art of passing the ball to the fullest.

He first delivered a fatal through pass in the first half, helping starting center forward Kaku to successfully overcome offside and score with a low shot.

Then, in a corner kick opportunity, he made a precise cross to Maguire at the back post, who headed the ball past Courtois!
It is worth mentioning that after scoring this header, Maguire’s total number of goals this season has reached eight!

This number also makes him the defender with the most goals in the Premier League and even the top five leagues this season! This season, Maguire has firmly established himself as the main central defender for Manchester United and has become the mainstay of the defense.

Especially in the set-piece attack tactics, the combination of Ling Feng and Maguire is simply unbeatable!
Ling Feng's deadly pass always finds Maguire's head!

Thanks to his outstanding performance in the Premier League and the Champions League, Maguire has not only become an absolute main force for Manchester United and the Three Lions, but his value has also skyrocketed by 30 million to 70 million pounds after the transfer market update in January!
He even overshadowed Liverpool's most expensive defender in Premier League history, Van Dijk!

In the end, with Ling Feng's assist and two goals, and Martial's icing on the cake, Manchester United beat Chelsea 3-1 at home and won 27 consecutive Premier League victories!
Just when everyone thought that Manchester United might really become the first team to win the Premier League and even the top five leagues with a perfect record this season, Manchester United failed in an unexpected way!
A few days later, in the 29th league game away to Crystal Palace, Manchester United, who had been on a roll, encountered the toughest game of the season.

Since the day of the competition was his girlfriend's grandmother's 70th birthday, Ling Feng took a leave of absence and accompanied Barbara to fly to Hungary to visit her.

Therefore, he did not appear in the squad against Crystal Palace.

Ling Feng originally thought that even if he was taking a rest, with Manchester United's current combat effectiveness and morale, it would be no problem for them to defeat a small Crystal Palace.

However, what he did not expect was that without the core player and captain, Manchester United's offensive fluency and threat level would not be comparable to the past.

They actually had a fierce battle with Crystal Palace away from home!
However, what is even more unexpected is that the player known as "Britain's No. 1 Central Defender" has become the absolute protagonist of this game!
In the first half, Maguire pulled down Crystal Palace striker Benteke in the scenic area, giving the opponent a yellow card.

Benteke scored in one fell swoop to help Crystal Palace take the lead at home.

After that, Crystal Palace immediately tightened its defense at home, with all players retreating and parking the bus.

Manchester United pressed forward in attack, but were unable to break through Crystal Palace's iron defense.

Without Ling Feng's deadly pass and personal explosion, the Manchester United stars who had appeared so good in previous games seemed to have become a lot more mediocre.

Even as a former Chelsea MVP, Mata can create chances, but,

It was not until the 88th minute of the game that the Red Devils finally equalized the score with Maguire's second attack from a corner kick and a shot in the melee in the penalty area.

It was Maguire's effort to make up for his mistake that allowed Manchester United to get a point away from home!
It is worth mentioning that on the last day of last year, Crystal Palace also drew with Manchester City at home!
Crystal Palace, under the leadership of Allardyce, has become a famous home dragon in the Premier League this season, having tied the first and second teams in the league twice at home in one season!
Although their 27-game winning streak was ended at Selhurst Park.

However, Manchester United is still leading second-placed Manchester City by as many as seven points, even with one game less!

The reason for the widening lead is very simple. Not only Manchester United lost their composure, but Manchester City also lost their composure!
In the 23rd round of the league, Manchester City lost to Liverpool away and suffered their second defeat of the season.

If the three points from the make-up match are counted, Manchester United's lead in the league will reach ten points!
According to statistics, before the 30th round of the Premier League, the league leaders who were leading by seven points or more basically won the Premier League championship in a single season!
However, even with such a big lead, Mourinho repeatedly emphasized in tactical meetings that the suspense of the Premier League championship is not over yet!

Because of this draw, the other 19 Premier League teams realized that Manchester United is not invincible!

Their fear of the Premier League's big devil will also subside, and their thinking will change:

Since Crystal Palace was able to draw with the invincible Manchester United at home, why couldn't we give it a try?
With this mentality, Manchester United will inevitably encounter more stubborn resistance from their opponents in the next ten league games!
Of course, in addition to giving the other 19 Premier League teams a little hope, this draw also made the club and everyone more aware of a very realistic problem.

That is, Manchester United cannot do without Ling Feng!

Just like the West cannot live without Jerusalem!

. . .

Four days later, in the home derby against Liverpool, captain and core number seven Ling Feng returned to the starting lineup!
Ling Feng also proved with practical actions how big the difference is between Manchester United with him and without him!
Within seventy minutes of his starting appearance, the top scorer in the top five leagues scored a perfect hat trick with his head, feet, and both hands!

The first goal was scored by a teammate who headed the ball into the goal after the goalkeeper missed the ball.

The other two goals were scored by him with his left foot and right foot respectively!
Under the shining light of Ling Feng, even the Egyptian striker Salah, who has performed brilliantly in the Premier League this season, is eclipsed.

In the end, Manchester United beat Liverpool 3-1 at home, and "" announced the Premier League with a hat trick:

As long as I am in Manchester United, you can forget about winning the Premier League title!

In the second leg of the Champions League round of 16 two days later, he completed one assist and one goal, becoming the first player in the new season to score ten goals in the Champions League, and also helped Manchester United beat Sevilla 4-0 at home!
With a double victory over Sevilla with an aggregate score of 7-0 in two rounds, the Red Devils Manchester United advanced to the quarterfinals of this season's Champions League without any surprise!
The eight seats in the quarterfinals are Manchester United, Manchester City and Liverpool from the Premier League, Real Madrid and Barcelona from La Liga, Juventus and Roma from Serie A, and the only Bundesliga team, Bayern!
On March 3, the draw ceremony for the quarter-finals was held at the UEFA headquarters in Nyon, Switzerland.

The Manchester United players gathered in the Lingfeng Villa also witnessed with their own eyes that "nuclear warhead" Shevchenko was the first to draw Manchester United.

Then, the second team drawn was the La Liga giants Barcelona!
The opponent is Barcelona? !

This is also the second time Manchester United and Barcelona meet in the Champions League after last year's Champions League group stage!
At that moment, all the insiders, including Ling Feng, couldn't help but twitch their lips, and then sighed in their hearts:
UEFA is such a shitty organization for drawing lots!

The rest of the draw matches that were subsequently made public further confirmed everyone’s guesses!
Manchester United VS Barcelona!

Real Madrid VS Juventus!

Bayern VS Roma!

Manchester City VS Liverpool!
Seeing the newly released Champions League quarterfinals table, many people complained in their hearts:

This is not a lottery result manipulated by humans, I eat it!
Among the top eight, Roma is a relatively weaker team.

It can definitely be called a gift package.

Therefore, the Bayern fans who won the big gift pack couldn't help but slide on their knees in their living rooms and shout "Tanken!"

The Premier League civil war between Manchester City and Liverpool, and the clear strength of Bayern and Roma, the scripts of these two matches are relatively normal.

The most exciting show is definitely Juventus's encounter with "old enemy" Real Madrid again, and the double king confrontation between Manchester United and Barcelona!

Although Real Madrid did not draw Barcelona, ​​they failed to re-stage the Champions League version of the Messi-Ronaldo duel.

However, the confrontation between Ling Feng, the new king of football, and five-time Ballon d'Or winner Messi is even more interesting!
