Soccer: Maxed-out ball control, the skill is too overpowered.

Lu Xiao was trending on Weibo for a whole day.

Even after scoring a goal, he didn't forget to celebrate National Day and send his blessings to fans across the country.

With its fan base growing to 6 million during the World Cup, it is about to break the 10 million mark.

Rock singer Wang Feng cried again.

He bought trending topics and press releases on Weibo that day just to get his new album to the top of the trending list.

Unexpectedly, no matter how much money was spent on hype, it still couldn't compete with real traffic.

Lu Xiao simply sent his blessings because the timing was right; he didn't care at all about how much traffic it would generate.

He practically left Weibo to his own devices, treating it like a personal social media platform, and managed it entirely on his own.

Most importantly, they won the game.

A 4-0 victory over Paderborn

Lu Xiao contributed one goal and one assist, and also orchestrated one attack; all three goals were related to him.

He was substituted off in the 65th minute of the match to rest.

With Lu Xiao's help, the team has achieved a 6-game winning streak!

Since the third Champions League group stage match is scheduled for the end of October,

This period is perfect for them to rack up points in the Bundesliga.

Bild also noted the strong resurgence of Bayer Leverkusen, who seem to have returned to the title race.

In the sixth round of the Bundesliga, Hamburg held Bayern Munich to a 0-0 draw at home, ending Bayern's eight-game winning streak in all competitions.

Bayern Munich currently sits atop the league table with 16 points from 5 wins and 1 draw.

多特蒙德4胜1平1负，积13分位列第2名；

勒沃库森3胜2平1负，积10分，位列第3名！

After a winless start to the season, Bayer Leverkusen briefly fell into the relegation zone, but their recent winning streak has put them back in the title race!

With only 6 points left to the league leaders Bayern Munich, the gap doesn't seem insurmountable.

Rivals Borussia Mönchengladbach, Schalke 04, Werder Bremen, Wolfsburg... are all at least 3 points behind Leverkusen.

The championship race is exactly the same as last season.

Bayern Munich, Borussia Dortmund, and Bayer Leverkusen are vying for the top spot!

Bayern Munich will most likely continue to dominate the Bundesliga; the only question is which of the two pursuers, Bayer Leverkusen and Borussia Dortmund, will fall behind first.

……

"How so? Are you confident of winning the championship this season?"

"Of course, Mr. Rummenigge, you hired me in the first place precisely for the championship."

There are too many variables in the Champions League, making it difficult to predict.

But the Bundesliga title is still a sure thing…”

"Then why didn't you win the championship last season?"

"this……"

Faced with Rummenigge's questioning, Guardiola awkwardly scratched his bald head, looking extremely embarrassed.

Theoretically, Bayern should have had an easy time in the Bundesliga last season!

Who knew a Chinese person would suddenly appear out of nowhere!

That's really weird!

Guardiola wiped the sweat from his brow and forced a smile:

"Believe me, Mr. Rummenigge, we've gelled together perfectly this season, and there's absolutely no way we'll make a mistake."

"Okay, I'll trust you one last time, but you should know that Bayern Munich is not a charity."

"Considering you're a championship coach, I'll give you more opportunities, but those opportunities are limited..."

"Don't worry, at least the league standings will be stable this season."

"Yes, it would be best to hold on."

Rummenigge nodded, got into the luxury car, and drove off.

Guardiola finally breathed a sigh of relief as he watched the taillights disappear into the parking lot.

No one around could see, and he couldn't help but mutter a curse under his breath.

"Pendejo!!"

Arriving in the Bundesliga with the halo of a six-time champion, he found himself scrutinized by both Bayern Munich's management and the German media.

Guardiola is fine when he wins, but if he loses or draws...

There were countless doubts, from the substitutions made by the on-site commander to the game's tactical design, questioning everything from beginning to end.

This makes Guardiola seem like the culprit for Bayern losing the title.

His passing and ball control seems outdated.

But Guardiola believes he has no problems and that possession-based football is not outdated.

The reason Bayern Munich cannot replicate Barcelona's peak performance is undoubtedly because their players' execution is inferior to that of La Masia graduates, and their teamwork is far less seamless.

Unfortunately, towards the end of the season, Guardiola repeatedly suggested to Rummenigge that they should buy Lu Xiao, no matter the cost.

But Bayern Munich ignored Guardiola's request.

Who told them to kick Lu Xiao out so easily? It's too late to regret it now.

Lu Xiao's agent, Mendes, made it clear that no matter where Lu Xiao transfers to in the future, he will never return to Bayern Munich.

After Guardiola learned the whole story, he was so angry he wanted to grab the reserve team coach, Ten Hag, by the collar and interrogate him.

Has he lost his mind?

As for the culprit, Erik ten Hag, he was released by Bayern Munich after the 2013-2014 season and returned to the Dutch Eredivisie as a coach.

Nobody cared about this at all. Who is Ten Hach?

He was just a minor figure; no one expected him to cause any significant stir in the football world later on.

"What should I do? The pressure is immense!"

Jordi Roura, Guardiola's assistant coach who has been with him for a long time, is at his wits' end.

If Guardiola fails to retain the Bundesliga title this season, he will also lose his job as manager.

Gua Tu himself calmed down, and his expression returned to normal:

"Don't panic, everything depends on the direct confrontation in the 14th round."

"Believe me, we can take them down this time, right?"

"Of course, of course!"

Jordi Rulla quickly agreed, but he wasn't entirely confident.

"Is it really possible?"

Nobody can predict Leverkusen's growth potential.

……

"Speed ​​up, speed up!! Give it your all!!"

"Brothers, hold on!!"

"pretty!!"

After a winning streak, the Bayer Leverkusen team did not become complacent.

On the contrary, under Lu Xiao's influence, everyone took training very seriously.

On the training ground, the Leverkusen players were exhausted.

De Bruyne's face was flushed, Son Heung-min was panting heavily with his knees on his hands, and even Julian Brandt, who was usually lazy, looked serious as he completed today's training task with the highest intensity.

Dribbling around cones, balance training, agility training... strive to do your best in every aspect.

Even if the coach approves it, he himself is not satisfied and wants to do it again.

This made Hypia laugh.

"Julian, you've changed completely! Tell me honestly, who are you?"

"Coach, I just feel that I need to improve."

Julian Brandt forced a smile.

He joined the team at the same time as Lu Xiao last season.

At that time, Julian was still a standard first-team rotation player.

Lu Xiao is just a 16-year-old substitute, a rotation player within a rotation. The two players are worlds apart in status and salary.

Who would have thought that in less than a season, Lu Xiao would already be the team's highest-paid player, earning nearly 25 euros per week?

He became the core of Leverkusen, playing the role of savior in many key battles, and at the age of 17, he was already a pillar of the team.

Julian Brandt, on the other hand, spent a season in the league and ended up as a substitute.

With De Bruyne anchoring the right flank,

Julian Brandt can only play in cup competitions and less important league matches.

I didn't even get a chance to play in the Champions League...

Only now does he truly understand the significance of Lu Xiao's efforts.

"Hopefully it's not too late..."

Seeing Lu Xiao chatting relaxedly with De Bruyne, Son Heung-min, Firmino, and others,

Julian Brandt was a little bewildered.

Kiessling and Derdiyok, who were also squeezed onto the bench, stood beside him, forming a "league of losers".

"Do we... still have a chance?"

"Yes, brother, yes."

Lu Xiao is their role model!

Lu Xiao, who was chatting with De Bruyne, noticed the gazes of several teammates and turned to give them a thumbs up.

If we want to achieve results in all three areas this season, every player is indispensable.

He couldn't single-handedly challenge the peak Barcelona team or the MSN trio by relying solely on external assistance.

"Come on, everyone! There's a real big boss waiting for us!"
