Football: I am only 16 years old, and you want me to retire and make a comeback?

Chapter 363 Tom gained strength from the evil altar and physically fought against the 80 mark
After playing against Brighton on the 17th, Manchester United only has one game left in March, which is on March 3st.

This is how Premier League teams are, they are very busy when they are busy, and they are particularly empty when they are free.

There are no games, which is not a pleasant news for the fans, because it means they will not be able to watch Tom's performance for a while.

The same is true for the players, of course.

Standing at the door of the gym, Tang Ye and Rashford looked at each other, with helplessness on their faces.

The Tom and Jerry duo is definitely the most uncomfortable right now.

The schedule is free, which means Craig will arrange a lot of strength and endurance training for them!

"Come on in guys"

Van der Gahe pushed Tang Ye and Rashford inside.

"If you want to get something, you have to give something"

Ok……

Tang Ye always felt that he had heard this sentence somewhere.

Was it Mr. Eric who said that or Mr. Phelan?

Tang Ye couldn't remember where this sentence came from, but there was indeed nothing wrong with the logic of it.

Tang Ye longed for power.

Just like the villains in cartoons, he is full of desire for power.

But the villains in cartoons often have to pay a painful price to gain power!

The same goes for Tom!

Now he will step onto the altar of evil and pay the price for power!
"Warm up with light weights first, call me when you're done."

Craig assigned tasks to Tang Ye and then went to look for other players.

As the club's chief fitness coach, he needs to be responsible for the physical training of all players, which is a very difficult task.

But the strange thing is that Craig came back just after he left.

"What's wrong sir?"

As soon as he put the barbell on his shoulders, Tang Ye looked up at Craig, who pointed behind him and said, "Eric asked me to keep an eye on you because you have the biggest room for improvement."

"..."

Shake your head.

Sure enough, it was the hateful Mr. Eric.

It was a pity that Craig was keeping an eye on him, so he certainly couldn't slack off.

Craig wasn't strict, but he was a real snitch.

It’s just like when I was in school as a kid, I did something bad and my classmates would report it to the teacher.

That is definitely a very bad thing!
"Pay attention to adjusting your breathing, and let your movements follow your breathing..."

"..."

"duang!"

"duang!"

At the beginning, Tang Ye could still make the barbell make a sound, because he stood up very quickly after squatting.

But when the weight was added later, he could no longer make any sound.

Because Tang Ye needs to use a lot of strength, a little bit at a time, to lift the barbell!
"call!"

"boom!"

The barbell hit the rack and Tang Ye, sweating profusely, sat on the ground gasping for breath.

"Very good. Remember to keep your back straight when you go down. Rest for 8 minutes and I'll come back in minutes."

Craig walked away, and Tang Ye moved his body and leaned against the shelf.

Physical training is still as tiring as ever.

You also need to practice endurance the day after tomorrow.

That's the scariest thing!

Tang Ye pulled up his shorts and put his hands on his thighs. With a little force, he could see very obvious muscles.

This made Tang Ye feel quite comforted.

The gym is the evil altar of the villain Tom.

Tang Ye sacrificed himself and gained super power!

[Physical confrontation: 79 → 80]

[Defense: 71→72]

Yo!
The altar is awesome!

Tang Ye was promoted as soon as he offered the sacrifice!
The physical confrontation finally broke through the 80 mark!
With such a powerful villain, the good characters are probably in trouble!

Tang Ye (40 years old)
[Ball possession: 86; Passing: 89]

[Shots: 78; Headers: 55; Set-pieces: 76]

[Speed: 75; Endurance: 74; Physical Confrontation: 80]

[Defense: 72; Vision: 97]

Overall Rating: 84
At the same time, he obtained 2 attributes, and the physical confrontation also broke through the long-lost 80 level.

Tang Ye didn't know whether his improvement speed was fast or slow, but he was not worried.

The decent characters don’t understand the principle of sacrifice, so the speed at which they become stronger cannot be compared to Tom!
……

During these few days of training, Tang Ye has been feeling the changes in his body.

The training was hard, but Tang Ye’s muscle mass just couldn’t compare to Rodrigo’s.

This made Tang Ye fall into long thought.

But thinking is not a problem for Tom, who has a smart mind.

According to Tang Ye's inference, this should be what the system calls "talent".

Rodri's physical talent is at least once-in-a-lifetime level, while Tang Ye's physical talent is relatively mediocre.

Even with the blessing of [Ronaldo] chicken breast, the benefits Tang Ye gained from the same training were only about the same as Rodri.

This is really a painful thing.

Manchester United now has a championship, and according to the rules of the ultimate mission, Tang Ye can directly obtain a once-in-a-lifetime physical talent.

Tang Ye really wanted to gain stronger physical talents, but he knew he had to hold back.

A once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, the focus of everyone's attention, and stunning!
A rare master can only attract everyone's attention if he keeps a steady mind!
That's Tom's goal!
……

March 3th, there are only a few days left until Manchester United’s last game of the month.

In the cafeteria in the evening, Carrick gathered the players together.

"Wow, what happened?"

Tang Ye put his hands on Rashford and Rodri's shoulders, wondering what Carrick was going to say.

Are there any activities?

“If there is an event, I will attend it.”

Tang Ye and Rodri whispered.

Since joining Manchester United, he has been playing games less and less frequently, but if he doesn't play games, he has to find something to kill time.

Doing activities with teammates is a good choice.

"Uh, well, well..."

Carrick looked a little hesitant, but facing more than 20 first-team teammates, he finally gritted his teeth and spoke.

"After this season, I plan to... uh, retire."

……

"Rod, why do you think Michael retired?"

Sitting in the co-pilot's seat, Tang Ye asked Rodri about his doubts.

Rodri, steering the wheel: "Michael is already 36 years old, many players retire around 35 years old"

"But I think Michael still wants to continue playing."

Based on Tang Ye's understanding of Carrick, he is definitely a guy who loves football very much, and this kind of guy should play until he is 40 years old.

However, the fact is that Carrick's current competitive ability does not give him any chance to play in Manchester United, which is full of midfield masters.

For Carrick, retiring in his favorite place may be the best choice!
"I'm telling you, Rod, I have a feeling that Michael will become a coach after he retires."

Tang Ye said suddenly.

"Why do you say that?"

"Because he loves football and he loves Manchester United"

Tang Ye slowly explained: "Didn't you notice, Rod, that Michael has basically not played in any games since we transferred here, but he still trains very seriously, just like he is a sparring partner for the starting players."

"When I was in Utrecht's second team, I was almost a sparring partner. I was definitely not as serious as Michael when I was a sparring partner. If the coach didn't pay attention, I would run away."

"Ha ha"

It must be admitted that Tang Ye needs to learn a lot from Captain Carrick!
……

Football expert pinned the post: Manchester United’s meritorious midfielder Carrick announced his retirement after the end of the season, ending his 12-year Manchester United playing career.

Carrick started playing for Manchester United in 06 and he also won the 2008 Champions League with Manchester United.

After Carrick retired, no one from Manchester United's 08 Champions League team remained at Manchester United.

[The real Red Devils are already in tears, Tang Ye fans are probably still drinking milk]

[Although I am a dog who licks Tang Ye's boot, I am also half a Manchester United fan, so I cry first]

[The next Champions League champion is gone]

As soon as the news of Carrick's retirement came out, no one from the so-called "08 Champions League team" remained at Manchester United, which made fans feel that Manchester United's glory was gone.

But the good news is that Manchester United just won a championship at the end of February.

The absence of glory is, after all, only an illusion.

If Manchester United can maintain this season's fierce momentum, its revival is not an unattainable dream.

……

"Goal! Ashley Young!"

"In the 38th minute of the game, Manchester United's continuous attack finally paid off!"

Ashley Young's powerful shot gave Manchester United a 1-0 lead at home!

Ashley Young stood on the edge of the court with his arms outstretched, and Tang Ye's voice came from behind.

"Yang!"

Tang Ye jumped directly onto Ashley Young and enjoyed the joy of scoring with his teammates.

"United! United! United!"

The Manchester United fans in the stands were still singing.

This is Manchester United's last game in March. If they can win this game, then Manchester United will get the honor of winning all the competitions in March!

The camera turns to the home team's stands.

Originally, the stands at Old Trafford were filled with support boards for Tang Ye, Ashley Young, and Rashford, but today they all belonged to Carrick.

【Michael, the eternal Manchester United captain! 】

【Manchester United will get better, Michael, and so will you! 】

Returning to the half court with his teammates, Tang Ye immediately saw the signs held by the fans in the stands.

Ok……

Tang Ye hasn't played many games with Carrick, but...

If a player can receive so many farewells from fans when he retires, then this player's career must have been quite successful. Tang Ye is very sure of this.

Entering the midfield with a 1:0 advantage, Ten Hag simply adjusted the team's tactics and the second half of the game began quickly.

Having learned from the lesson of the last FA Cup, Ten Hag was not in a hurry to replace Tang Ye after taking the lead this time.

Let’s see what happens to Swansea in the second half first!

"Tang Ye, come to the left side!"

"Looking for an opportunity!"

Snapped!
A 45-degree cross into the penalty area.

Ale stopped the ball!

But the subsequent shot was blocked by Swansea defender!
To be honest, this ball is a bit of a pity!

"it's okay no problem!"

After adjusting their state, Tang Ye and Ale connected again 5 minutes later.

It was still a 45-degree cross, but this time it came from the right!
Snapped!
The ball hit the edge of the penalty area and bounced into the penalty area.

Right in front of Alai!

The Manchester United center forward withstood the resistance, lifted his foot and scored with ease.

2: 0!

"Keep going!"

Feeling that he was getting into the game, Tang Ye quickly gestured to tell his teammates.

Next he will take the pace up a notch!
"..."

Get the ball at the baseline!

"Wow!"

The fans in the stands stood up and gave instructions to Tang Ye.

"Cut inside, cut inside!"

"Cut inside and score!"

"Run in and hit the door! Run in and hit the door!"

Tang Ye wandered around the wing and showed off his excellent ball control skills.

The ball seemed to be stuck to Tang Ye's feet, it looked very comfortable!
That's it now!
Seizing the opportunity, Tang Ye directly passed the ball through the crotch of Swansea's full-back.

Run over!
Hold the ball!

Giving an inverted triangle!
Tang Ye's inverted triangle pass found Rodri in the middle.

Rodri passes it to Herrera in front again!
Herrera shoots!
3: 0!

"Ha ha!"

So handsome!
Tang Ye's mind was filled with the image of himself dribbling through the opponent's crotch just now.

It was indeed exciting. When the director replayed the goal, he did not forget to show Tang Ye's crotch-piercing pass to the fans.

"This is what we said before, Tang Ye, this kid, hehe, his ball control ability is top-notch in the entire Premier League, hehe, second only to players like Hazard and Salah, hehe"

Commentator Zhang Lu gave Tang Ye a very high evaluation, and three consecutive "hehe" sounds proved his identity to the fans.

67:3 in the 0th minute, the score was so stable that Ten Hag replaced Tang Ye at this time.

"Tom!"

"Tom!! Wow!!"

Raising his hands to applaud, Tang Ye hugged Ten Hag, then walked straight to the stands and gave the remaining two pieces of chewing gum in his pocket to today's lucky fans.

I wonder which lucky fan will get the gift from my GGBond.

So enviable!

……

Football Report: Manchester United beat Swansea 5-1 at home and won all the games in March. Has the battle between the two Manchester clubs entered a white-hot stage?

Attached is the Premier League standings (as of round 32)
1. Manchester City, 84 points.

2. Manchester United, 78 points.

3. Tottenham, 64 points.

4. Liverpool, 63 points.

5. Chelsea, 58 points.

The match between Manchester United and Swansea was actually the 32nd round of the Premier League, and the original 31st round was postponed due to the Champions League and FA Cup schedules.

However, the same applies to Manchester City, Tottenham, Chelsea and other teams. Their 31st round games have also been postponed to May.

So now everyone is in the same situation. The league has reached the 32nd round. The strong teams with busy schedules have generally only played 31 games, one round less, but they still firmly control the top five in the standings.

Of course, unless they are fans of teams like Chelsea and Arsenal who want to compete for European qualification, other fans don’t care which clubs are in the top five or four of the league.

They are focused on this season's championship.

Manchester United is on a crazy winning streak to catch up with Manchester City, but Manchester City is also on a crazy winning streak.

One month ago, the difference between Manchester United and Manchester City was 1 points, and it is still 6 points now.

Regarding this issue, the reporter interviewed Manchester City coach Guardiola.

"Manchester United's pursuit will put us under pressure, and this pressure will make us play better football, so I think Manchester United's pursuit will not be successful in the end."

[I am Guardiola, and I am panicking right now]

【Hahaha】

[I thought Manchester City was invincible this season, but I didn't expect there are still masters! ]

Fans carefully analyzed the upcoming schedules of Manchester United and Manchester City.

Manchester City's subsequent opponents will be much simpler than Manchester United, which is not good news for Manchester United.

And there is one game that is very crucial.

That’s the Manchester derby on April 4th!

If Manchester City can beat Manchester United for the second time in the Manchester derby, they can basically lock in the league title.

On the contrary, if Manchester United can win, their chances of catching up with Manchester City will be greatly increased.

However, before the Manchester derby, both of Manchester City's Premier League teams have other tasks to complete.

Football Emperor event preview: In the first leg of the Champions League quarter-finals in the early morning of April 4, Manchester United will face Juventus at home.

BBC commentator: Manchester United has encountered the biggest dilemma since 2018. Every game in April is very important to them. Unfortunately, Manchester United does not have strong enough substitutes, which may become a hidden danger.

English Professional Footballers' Association, candidates for Premier League Player of the Month for March:
1. Tang Ye, Manchester United.

2. Salah, Liverpool.

3. Son Heung-min, Tottenham Hotspur.

4. David Silva, Manchester City.

5. Wood, Burnley.

"Football Weekly" Special Edition - KFC wanted to sign Manchester United star Tom, but the player declined due to his busy schedule.

"KFC is under a lot of pressure now. They want to sign Tom two months before the World Cup, just like Mengniu, but the player himself is not very willing, so it will be very difficult to complete the contract in April."

“If the contract is signed, KFC will launch an exclusive meal package for Tom and sell it in Europe and mainland China.”

……

“No, I really didn’t lie to them.”

In the living room of the apartment, Tang Ye was complaining to Rodri.

When chatting with KFC staff yesterday, he temporarily rejected the contract due to the busy schedule in April.

As a result, the genius KFC staff member directly asked Tang Ye whether he had reached an agreement with McDonald's.

"How could I have completed the agreement with McDonald's? McDonald's didn't even contact me. Rod, he even said I was cheating him. Do you think this is reasonable?"

"It's me. I also suspect that you have contacted McDonald's. You know, those businessmen only care about money. They don't understand our schedule in April."

"But I really have no connection with McDonald's, and I rarely eat McDonald's. Don't you think McDonald's burgers are not as delicious as KFC?"

Tang Ye shook his hands and leaned back on the soft sofa. At this moment, the phone on the coffee table rang.

It was Paul calling.

"What's wrong Paul?"

"McDonald's?"

Tang Ye was stunned for a moment.

Looking up at Rodry, the arrogant little brother Rod was raising an eyebrow at Tom.

"..."

"Forget it, Paul, don't call me this month. I have a lot of things to do, really. I'm hanging up. Thank you, Paul, let's talk next time."

Tang Ye hung up the phone.

“So it’s KFC or McDonald’s?”

Rodri walked up to Tang Ye.

"Like I said, I prefer KFC a little bit"

"But it's not about which one you like better, it's about who gives more pounds."

Rodri pointed out Tang Ye’s wrong ideas, but Tang Ye didn’t think he was wrong.

“You must endorse something only when you like it.”

Tang Ye explained.

If he were to endorse McDonald's, KFC's spicy chicken burger would definitely be very sad!

That's a feeling of betrayal!

His favorite is KFC's spicy chicken burger, Tom doesn't want to make the thing he likes sad!
However, whether it is the spicy chicken leg burger from KFC or the spicy chicken leg burger from McDonald's is not what Tang Ye needs to consider now.

"Hiss...Rod, how did Juventus and Manchester City win? Damn, they are too good."
