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

Chapter 570: The Standard Long Pass is About to Break Through, the Second Level 6 Growth Template (Rankings)

Swish!

In the players' tunnel, Tang Ye quickly rubbed his hands together to warm them up.

"You could wear gloves, like Martial."

Rodri suggested, "I think you seem a little cold."

It rained lightly in London before the match started, and although the rain has stopped, it's still windy.

"Wearing gloves is uncomfortable."

Tang Ye shook his head and placed his hand on Dembele's shoulder: "Get ready to go out, Osman."

Manchester United led Chelsea 1-0 at halftime.

They were in the lead, but judging from the expressions of the Chelsea players next door, they seemed determined to turn the score around, which made Tang Ye more cautious.

"Beep!"

"Let's go, let's go!"

After clapping hands with De Gea and Bailly, Tang Ye led the players out of the tunnel.

"Wow!!!!"

Fans in the stands held up signs that read "Long Live TY" and chanted their slogans.

The King of Manchester United!

"OK! The second half begins!"

Neither side made any substitutions... but it seems like there's not much left to substitute.

"The difference between Manchester United's starting lineup and substitutes is too huge; I feel they're not even in the same league. Well, Chelsea's side is a bit better."

The number of viewers in the live stream quickly rose to over 8. It might not seem like a lot of people, but this number is quite impressive for a Happy Beans live stream.

"De Ligt! Hmm, bringing the ball up himself, how pretentious!"

"But it's okay, guys. I think Manchester United is going to play a bit more arrogantly this season."

He carried the ball all the way to near the center circle, where De Ligt then stopped.

He wanted to pass to De Jong, but the Manchester United defensive midfielder's position was already marked by the defenders.

no way.

Snapped!
De Ligt launched a long pass, aiming directly at Dembele on the right wing.

"The ball was a bit too high, Dembele!"

"Dembele is awesome!"

"Another perfect first touch! Guys, I feel like Dembele should be on the national team. Isn't his first touch much better than Wu Lei's? Let Dembele come to the national team and team up with Tang Ye!"

After receiving the ball, Dembele decisively began to challenge the defender one-on-one.

First, Dembele plays a one-two with Wan-Bissaka, then receives the ball and cuts inside.

At this moment, Wan-Bissaka went to the byline, and Dembele passed the ball to him.

The full-back made a run down the wing, and Wan-Bissaka was incredibly fast!

Stop the ball!

Snapped!
The cross was delivered to Haller in the penalty area.

Haller shields the ball with his back to goal and passes it back to Dembele!
"Go in! Go in!"

Upon hearing Tang Ye's voice, Dembele dribbled the ball towards the penalty area.

He was about to encounter defender Dembele, so he quickly passed the ball with his right foot.

Rashford made a diagonal run into the penalty area.

"Wow!!!!"

Rashford was about to make a spectacular play, but he made a mistake while going out of bounds, dribbling the ball too far, and the ball ended up hitting a Chelsea center-back.

Fortunately, the defender didn't react in time and didn't kick the ball away immediately, and Dembele won it the next second.

"Holy crap, that's kind of scary, guys."

"Dembele controls the ball himself first, then Tang Ye comes in!"

"Chelsea's penalty area is in chaos!"

Dembele wasn't in a hurry. He first controlled the ball himself and made some simple passes between his left and right feet. The defenders couldn't steal the ball from Dembele because unless they were double-teamed, it would be very difficult for them to take the ball from him.

Dembele moved laterally to create space and passed the ball to Tang Ye.

coming!

The moment Tang Ye received the ball, he came to an abrupt stop, instantly shaking off the defender.

Pass the ball from your right foot to your left foot.

Left-footed shot!

Caballero sat down, but Tang Ye's shot went right between his legs.

The ball went in!
Shortly after the start of the second half, Manchester United scored their second goal.

2: 0!

Tang Ye bypassed the defenders and ran towards the stands at an increasingly faster pace.

During this time, I heard Dembele shouting from behind.

"Hurry up!"

Tang Ye urged them on. Once everything was almost ready, the two of them simultaneously performed a sliding kneeling motion.

Swish swish! ! !
"Roar!!!"

Invincible

I'm just wondering why Dembele isn't on the Ballon d'Or shortlist. He's even better than Rashford.

[You'd have to ask Dembele himself how he played for Barcelona last season.]

[This little detail shows that Dengzi has truly awakened...]

Whether Dembele awakens or not is a minor matter; why aren't you all praising GGBond's triumphant return?

Chelsea managed to put up a good fight against Manchester United with some well-designed tactics, but the problem was that they weren't as good at converting chances as Manchester United.

Manchester United's players, including Rashford, Tang Ye, Haller, and even the two defensive midfielders, are all very good at shooting.

Moreover, Manchester United has an extremely strong ability to advance the ball, and they can easily get it into a position where they can shoot.

But Chelsea's situation is different.

Playing on the flanks will lead to encounters with Wan-Bissaka.

Middle?

That's even more impossible. Rodri and De Jong together cost 200 million. If they let you go over there so easily, would it still be worth 200 million?

"Roar!"

Tang Ye shouted to the stands, which quickly drew a swarm of Chelsea fans.

"You'd better transfer here, Tom!"

"Transfer here! Otherwise, I'm going to start yelling at you!"

Chelsea fans are too aggressive!

Chelsea sold Hazard and Courtois this summer but failed to bring in any good enough players, which has angered Chelsea fans.

If all the key players are sold, does that mean we should just give up?

Tang Ye didn't understand Chelsea's current situation; he only knew that he needed to celebrate with his teammates.

2: 0!

After this match, Manchester United will advance to the quarterfinals of the EFL Cup!

Ten Hach is now seated.

Because he knew that Chelsea's chances of turning the tide were now slim, and they no longer had any chance of a comeback.

Eric

Van der Gach patted Ten Hach's arm, then pointed to the computer screen: "Frankie's run is a bit too high, you need to take a look at this."

The match had only been going on for 60 minutes, but De Jong and Rodri had already run 8.2 kilometers and 7.3 kilometers respectively.

Rodri's data is still within acceptable limits, but De Jong's data...

Bro, did you run a little too much?

Actually, this trend started last season, with Manchester United's two defensive midfielders covering increasingly exaggerated distances.

Van der Gach had mentioned it to Ten Hach once, but it didn't attract much attention.

"Um……"

Ten Hah squinted and carefully examined the data displayed on the computer.

"Actually... I feel that these numbers aren't as useful as you think. Different people have different standards." Ten Hag meant that every player has different characteristics.

For most players, running 8.2 kilometers in 60 minutes is indeed a bit exaggerated, but De Jong's characteristics can handle this task.

If an average player can't run 8.2 kilometers in 60 minutes, can Frenkie de Jong be considered an average player?

"This……"

Van der Gach was somewhat at a loss for words, but he still offered his suggestion: to slightly adjust De Jong's tactical tasks, reducing his running distance by 1-2 kilometers per game.

We'll talk about that later.

Ten Hach did not accept van der Gach's suggestion for the time being: "Numbers are just numbers. As long as he is not injured or shows no signs of discomfort, it proves that he can handle this running distance."

"Remember when you were in the Eredivisie? Back then, Tom would run 5 kilometers per game. Now it's not 10 kilometers anymore. You can adapt to these things little by little, Michel."

After speaking, Ten Hag turned his head away to continue observing the situation on the field.

"This……"

Van der Gach raised an eyebrow, unsure of what to say.

Is your example... correct?

Manchester Evening News – Is TY back for the new season? He has won 4 MVPs in 4 games and has a 100% Best Player selection rate.

After the match, the Manchester Evening News published two articles. The front-page headline highlighted Tang Ye's performance in the last four matches, while the second-page headline analyzed Dembele's improved form.

"If Dembele can maintain this form, he will soon be back to the level he was at Dortmund," according to a Manchester Evening News reporter.

In a press conference interview, Ten Hag said: "Winning the EFL Cup is also a goal for Manchester United this season, but of course the focus is still on the Premier League and the Champions League."

Do you think Tyson can win this year's Ballon d'Or? He'll be competing with both Van Dijk and Messi.

"..."

You've already asked me this question before.

Ten Hag was somewhat speechless, but repeated himself: "It's the same as the Premier League. No team can dominate the Premier League forever, and no one can win the Ballon d'Or forever. These things change, and I think... now it's time to give it to Don, because from every angle, he now deserves the Ballon d'Or."

"All Manchester United players and managers will stand with Don."

Click!

Click, click, click!

……

The Professional Footballers' Association (PFA) has nominated the Premier League Player of the Month for October:
1. Grealish, Aston Villa.

2. De Jong, Manchester United.

3. Vardy, Leicester City.

4. Dean Henderson, Sheffield United.

5. Tang Ye, Manchester United.

The Premier League Player of the Month awards are out again.

Although it's said to be five players, it's actually a battle between Tang Ye and De Jong, because the other players basically won't have much of a chance.

……

Sports Weekly: Lippi's inclusion of Tang Ye in the 2019 East Asian Cup finals squad is seen as a deterrent to other participating teams.

"If the Chinese team wins the final, Tang Ye will automatically win the Ballon d'Or. However, the East Asian Cup final will start after the Ballon d'Or voting concludes, meaning that even if the Chinese team wins the East Asian Cup, it won't help Tang Ye's Ballon d'Or nomination."

ESPN: Kobe invited TY to watch a Los Angeles Lakers NBA game in November, but TY declined, citing a busy schedule. TY promised Kobe he would travel to the US to watch a game together next year when the schedule is less demanding.

November is fast approaching, and there's only one month left until the Ballon d'Or rankings are announced.

……

"Huh, huh..."

In the 74th minute of the second half, Manchester United led Bournemouth 3-1.

The camera pans to Tang Ye on the field, clearly indicating a direct free kick opportunity.

"Hmm, Tang Ye hasn't scored a direct free kick this season so far. This free kick is in a good position, let's take a look..."

In the picture, Tang Ye and Rashford are standing together.

They exchanged a glance, and then Tang Ye began his running start.

"Tang Ye..."

"Blow the door open!"

The ball on the grass was lifted up instantly, rushed to its highest point, and then began to fall.

This was a free kick with a knuckleball motion, a technique Tang Ye excels at.

Falling!

The goalkeeper jumped out to make the save, but couldn't reach the ball because Tang Ye's knuckleball shot didn't hit the target area.

Hit the net from your own goal!
"Depend on!"

With a roar, Tang Ye bit his jersey with his teeth, seething with rage.

It was so close again!

Since the start of the season, Tang Ye has taken at least 10 direct free kicks, but all of them have ended in failure.

Based on Tang Ye's direct free-kick scoring rate last year, he should have scored at least one goal out of 10 attempts.

His teammates came over to comfort him, and Tang Ye slowly retreated towards his own half of the court.

"We can see that Tang Ye's overall ability is stronger than last season after recovering from injury."

"Yes, their overall ability has improved, but their free-kick skills may have declined somewhat."

"Because we all know that Tang Ye injured his knee in the car accident, and free kicks rely heavily on the knee for power."

After discussion, the two CCTV commentators came to a possible conclusion.

Although the Mayo Clinic stated in its announcement that Tang Ye's knee has fully recovered and there are no lingering problems.

But you have to understand that Tang Ye's injury was to his knee, which means that he was basically unable to do much free kick training during his recovery period, and even if he did train, he didn't dare to use too much force.

The problem now is that Tang Ye's free-kick touch has become a bit rusty!

But the Manchester United players at Carrington training ground dared not slack off in the slightest.

Because their fourth Champions League group stage match is coming up, and their opponent is still Borussia Dortmund, led by Esscribá!

Snapped!

[De Bruyne's Standard Long Pass Lv5: Replica (Beyond Form)]

Proficiency: 4872/5000
Tang Ye is actually quite excited right now, for a simple reason: his second level 6 skill is coming soon.

Compared to a 45-degree cross, a standard long pass is more practical, so Tang Ye is very much looking forward to it.

"Tom"

Van der Gach approached Tang Ye and gestured for him to stop the long pass training: "Let's stop here for today and add some free kick practice."

"This one……"

Tang Ye hesitated for a moment, then thought it over carefully before offering his opinion: "Let's not rush that. How about we wait a couple more days? I'm starting to get a feel for long passes now."

"Oh, I see? Okay then."

Van der Gach's eyes lit up: "Haha, are you getting stronger again, Tom? But I feel your passing is already amazing enough, it probably won't be so easy for you to improve further..."

"You'll only know if you try, Mr. Michel."

Haha, okay.

Van der Gach put his hand on Tang Ye's shoulder: "Keep it up!"
