Chapter 5: New Teammates

Li Qingshan walked to the hotel lobby and ran into an acquaintance.

To be precise, he is not an acquaintance, but compared to other Manchester United players, this person has at least played against Li Qingshan many times on the field.

Di Maria!

This Argentine, who looks like a noodle, is not to be underestimated.

Di Maria has also just returned to the team. In fact, when the rest of Manchester United's players except Li Qingshan gathered in Manchester to fly to the United States, Di Maria did not return to Manchester.

Due to his adaptation to the Premier League last season and his poor relationship with Louis van Gaal, Di Maria asked his agent to seek a run away from United as soon as the season ended.

But the peaks and loops turned, Manchester United actually changed the coach in a flash, Van Gaal stepped down, and Ancelotti took over the coaching whip of Manchester United.

If Carlo Ancelotti is under him, Di Maria could reconsider his prospects at Manchester United.

And soon, Ancelotti called him, so that Di Maria finally settled down and honestly came to the United States to join the team.

However, due to his comments at the end of the season and his search to escape Manchester United, it is estimated that he has offended many Manchester United players, let alone Manchester United fans.

Li Qingshan stepped forward and greeted, "Good afternoon, angel!" ”

Di Maria, who was struggling with how to reconnect with her teammates, heard familiar Spanish.

For Di Maria, one of the biggest problems in England is the language barrier. Last season, he didn't learn a few words of English, so at Manchester United, he could only communicate directly with Juan Mata, Herrera, De Gea, these Spanish players, and now suddenly there is a person who can speak Spanish, and he is still a little uncomfortable, so he replied: "Good afternoon!" ”

Li Qingshan seemed very enthusiastic: "The impact you left on me is very profound, and your left foot is very powerful." ”

In the face of the compliment, Di Maria was still very useful, and he laughed.

"You have left me with a deeper impact, you have robbed me of a Champions League title!"

Li Qingshan laughed, and the two chatted.

"What does it feel like to go from Madrid to Manchester."

Di Maria thought for a moment: "It's not easy, I don't understand English, it's still raining over there......... Or the sun in Madrid is comfortable. ”

finally found someone to talk to, and Di Maria complained about the weather in England.

The two were chatting in the hotel lobby, while the other Manchester United players came down from their rooms one after another to meet in the hotel lobby.

Rooney was the first to come out, followed by Chris Smalling, Ashley Young, Phil Jones, and a number of England youngsters who had been promoted from the Academy.

Li Qingshan saw at a glance Rooney's head that had just undergone hair transplant surgery.

The captain of Manchester United and England is talking loudly about something with his England boys. Judging by his hearty laughter, this is a typical English strong man.

Rooney ignored Di Maria, but came directly to Li Qingshan: "Good afternoon, Lee!" ”

Di Maria was a little embarrassed, he had a good relationship with Rooney and other Manchester United players, but because of his approach after the end of the season, the players were very dissatisfied, and Rooney, as the captain, did not give him a good face.

"Good afternoon, Captain." Li Qingshan responded.

Rooney smiled and shook his head: "Don't call me captain, just call me Wayne." ”

At this time, the players of Manchester United basically came to the hall, and Rooney patted Li Qingshan's arm: "Come, I'll introduce you." ”

"This is Michael." Rooney first introduced the veteran Carrick.

In fact, there is no need for Rooney to introduce, Manchester United's players are basically stars, and Li Qingshan has nothing he doesn't know - except for those young players in the reserve team and youth team.

Next, Rooney introduced Li Qingshan one by one. These players are either reserved or enthusiastic. The attitude towards him is also different.

Li Qingshan always smiled and came to a new team, in a new environment, there is nothing better than keeping a smile on his face.

Of course, Manchester United's players are no strangers to Li Qingshan.

Although Li Qingshan has not played against Manchester United, no one can ignore a player who has scored goals ahead of Messi and Cristiano Ronaldo in La Liga.

After a short briefing, Ancelotti also came down from the hotel. Then the whole team walked to the training ground.

The sun was shining in Seattle, and Li Qingshan and his new teammates stepped onto a turquoise grass to warm up under the agency of an assistant coach.

Most of the people in the warm-up were smiling and looking very relaxed, after all, after a holiday, after washing away the fatigue of last season, the players are still in a very full mental state.

However, there are also many players who are frowning and preoccupied.

Robin van Persie frowned at the moment.

The Dutchmen who fly, as they get older, are no longer able to fly.

And Li Qingshan's joining directly impacted his position.

The club obviously won't let a player bought for 100 million euros sit on the bench, and Rooney, as the captain of the team, the newcomer Ancelotti is unlikely to put Rooney on the bench, so Van Persie's position is awkward.

Since Li Qingshan came, Fan Persie's mood has not been good, and even when he greeted Li Qingshan, he frowned and looked very cold.

However, for most players, Li Qingshan's arrival did not directly impact their interests, plus Li Qingshan's personality is not bad, and he can speak Spanish and English, and can communicate directly with most Manchester United players, he quickly became easy with some of his teammates.

After all, in the face of such a young striker full of brilliance, Manchester United's players still maintain respect and friendliness towards him.

Ancelotti also did not arrange too much training, mainly some interesting training around, the current players have not yet come out of the state of vacation, naturally it is impossible to train with a large amount of training as soon as they come up.

The sun is shining in Seattle, the training is very relaxed, there is talk and laughter on the training ground, and the atmosphere is harmonious. It's a good feeling.

The players have an easy time training, but Carlo Ancelotti is not.

Because he knows Manchester United from today, he will have to take the time to get a full picture of the United squad before deciding to streamline it.

That's right, he's going to have to slim down the bloated Manchester United first team, first by selling out some of the veterans who might be out of position, and then by lending out some of the younger players who need to be played.

It would be nice to keep around twenty players available, and Ancelotti doesn't need a squad that is too big and bloated.

He was pressed for time, and his work was not easy at all.
