Red Army fans regard China as the savior and Qin Xiong’s arrival as a spiritual medicine, which makes fans have higher expectations and more confidence in the new season.
The Times interview is as formal as an official interview.
But the newspaper interview is more like Tony Barrett helping Qin Xiong better understand the current situation of Liverpool and facilitate Qin Xiong’s integration into Liverpool.
Although the club has been acquired by China now, emotional closeness is the largest market for local football fans in English football clubs, and it is also the foundation for local football fans. If foreign capital comes wantonly, it will be a loselose situation.
Therefore, Qin Xiong must have a deep understanding of what Liverpool need now, especially if it is accepted by the fans and it is easier for him to integrate into the team.
This is different from the situation when he joined Arsenal. Arsenal’s situation is not complicated. Everything is thriving in the o4 season, and the team is moving forward steadily.
Qin Xiong appreciates Tony Barrett’s interview.
The next day, Qin Xiong woke up in the early morning, packed his breakfast and took a bus to Melwood training base.
There were also fans wandering outside the training base early, and they cheered when they saw Qin Xiong get into a taxi and walk towards the training base.
Now they can’t wait to see Qin Xiong join the Liverpool team for training.
Qin Xiong waved to the fans to say hello and then walked into Melwood training base.
Before walking to the front of the first team locker room, Qin Xiong politely knocked on the door and pushed the door himself. Now there is no one inside.
He went in and found the No.7 player with a brandnew name tag on the wardrobe. It was Qin Xiong.
While changing clothes, someone came in from outside. When Qin Xiong saw the visitor, he greeted him and said, Good morning, Stephen.
Captain Steven Gerrard was a little surprised to see Qin Xiong come so early. He went to Qin Xiong and offered his hand and said, I heard that you are a training model player before, but I didn’t expect it to be true.
Qin Xiong is an old acquaintance. Gerrard was an old rival in England. He went to Real Madrid and met in the Champions League for two consecutive seasons.
Hehe, I can’t sleep. I’m a little excited to get familiar with a new environment and get to know new teammates.
Gerrard laughed. Don’t worry, there are not so many intrigues at Anfield, unlike the Bernabeu, where the dressing room is restless all the time. It’s as simple as our carelessness. Our teammates are easy to get along with.
Qin Xiong had planned to go to the gym to warm up first, but since Gerrard had arrived early, he waited for Gerrard to change his clothes, and they left the gym and went to the training ground together.
Since the teammates and the coaching staff haven’t arrived yet, Qin Xiong decided to play ball with Steven Gerrard.
The rule that two people are five meters apart from each other has a guarantee that the football will not land.
This will enhance the sense of the ball
Qin Xiong tiptoed the ball and kicked it to Steven Gerrard, who stopped the ball in his thigh and gently kicked it to Qin Xiong before landing.
Two people come and go, because the ball is not fast and the power is very light, and the ball is always allowed to land. Two people’s thighs, shoulders, foreheads and calves are even Qin Xiong will stop the ball with their heels, and they will relay the ball to each other like juggling.
The distance was gradually pulled from five meters to ten meters, then to fifteen meters until twenty meters, when the two men made a mistake, and the football finally landed on Qin Xiong’s foot.
Steven Gerrard smiled and raised his hand to show that he was sorry that his ball was too strong for Qin Xiong to control. Although Qin Xiong stopped the ball perfectly, he managed to keep the football in the center.
Outside the training base, the fans were particularly excited to see Qin Xiong Gerrard playing ball with each other at the training ground, as if watching a football performance, and they even clapped their hands.
Steven Gerrard and Qin Xiong played for about 10 minutes. Javier Mascherano and Fernando Torres came to the training ground and directly joined the twoperson game.
The four narrowed the distance and became the weakest corner ball. Mascherano always made mistakes, which made him very depressed.
However, during the ball game, he can also feel that Qin Xiong is the most comfortable to give him the ball.
At 9: 00 pm, the firstteam players and coaches are in training occasions.
Benitez briefly introduced a Qin Xiong’s training
Because Qin Xiong was in the training center under the guidance and supervision of the personal coaching team before the transfer, his physical fitness and physical condition were no problem, and he didn’t miss a few days of preseason training because of the midway transfer.
The latest training period is physical preparation stage, and Qin Xiong is outstanding in all indicators of the team.
Torres is neck and neck in the sprint, and Gerrard is not in the strength test. Dirk Kuyt scored high in the endurance competition.
At this stage, the training always makes the players feel carefree, as if they were released and stretched their physical limits to the limit.
After the afternoon training, the players ate together in the restaurant of Melwood Training Base.
By this time, Qin Xiong has been able to blend in with many teammates of the team.
In Liverpool, Qin Xiong also had his classmate Babel. Although they met in Ajax Youth Team less than a month later, they have taken different paths since then, but meeting again in Liverpool enables them to have many topics.
In the afternoon training, Qin Xiong was finally sweating. At dusk, Benitez asked the players to relax and play football games.
At this time, Qin Xiong sat aside to rest. To his surprise, Alonso took the initiative to come and sit beside him.
Harvey meets again.
Qin Xiong’s phrase meet again naturally means that the two will meet in Liverpool after the Champions League game six months ago.
Alonso smiled gently and said, I should say this when I go to the Bernabeu.
Qin Xiong associate that recent transfer market with Real Madrid’s attack on Alonso.
He became serious and said, Will you stay in Liverpool?
Alonso turned his head and stared at Qin Xiong for a long time before sinking, Then let’s have dinner together later?
Qin Xiong was quite surprised. Anyway, he was alone now and nodded, Good! to be continued
[The first volume of the sword has become an irreconcilable contradiction before it is drawn]
Alonso, Qin Xiong, dined in a popular local Spanish restaurant in Liverpool in the evening. Alonso is an old customer here, and his boss and staff know him well.
This reminds Qin Xiong that he used to visit restaurants when he played for Arsenal in North London. He really hasn’t visited his old friend Huck when he returned to England.
When they order food, there will be a lowkey poetic atmosphere in their lives, and Alonso’s look will become a little melancholy.
Qin Xiong tried to find a topic to break the awkward atmosphere, so he said, It’s a pity that Liverpool didn’t win the league title last season. I hope we can rewrite the history of Liverpool’s Premier League title together in the new season.
Alonso braced himself from his absence. He stared at Qin Xiong and whispered, The club eo Wilcott talked to me at noon today. He did tell me that the club would not allow me to transfer to Real Madrid, but I wanted to go.
Qin Xiong asked curiously, What? Do you miss Spain as much as Arbeloa does? I want to realize my childhood dreams day and night?
In fact, Qin Xiong is a little tired of Real Madrid’s gesture as if the best player in the world should be born to play for Real Madrid.
So when he joined Real Madrid, he never said that Real Madrid was his dream.
His dream is to be champion and brilliant, not to define a club as his home.
Alonso shook his head calmly and said, I was born in the royal society, and I am a Basque team. Real Madrid is very good, but it has not reached the height of becoming a dream since I was born and raised. I can say that I don’t want to stay in Liverpool!
Qin Xiong was shocked. From this day’s training, he observed that the atmosphere of the team was very good, and he could not understand that Alonso was isolated or rejected by the team. Why could Alonso not stay?
Before Qin Xiong asked Alonso, he went on to say, Qin Xiong, you are clever and I am not stupid. Why did you join Liverpool is not because Liverpool is your best choice, but the last choice among your many choices, and your club owner doesn’t know that interest is the decisive factor, just as you can refuse the temptation of Real Madrid’s 20,000pound weekly salary, Manchester City’s 250,000pound weekly salary and Chelsea’s 250,000pound weekly salary, the boss of Liverpool China will definitely give you more. What you get is not as simple as holding a 150,000
Qin Xiong is speechless. In fact, many people can see the benefits here, but what does it matter if onlookers don’t poke this window paper?
Qin Xiong sighed, I don’t understand what you mean by telling me this, just as I don’t understand this dinner.
