In China, Yang Cheng once heard someone joking, but in any city, you can see Shaxian snacks.

In foreign countries, Yang Cheng is very proud to hear people say that wherever you can see people, there are Chinese people and the restaurants they run.

Even if you go to an oasis in the Sahara Desert, you can see Chinese-run Chinese restaurants.

In Liverpool, this situation is no exception, and even the Chinese run a street here, and named Chinatown, at the intersection of the street set up a huge archway, 15 meters high, is the largest and tallest in the United Kingdom, which symbolizes the status of Liverpool Chinatown, which represents the first group of Chinese communities in Europe in Liverpool.

Yang Cheng occasionally comes here to eat, nostalgic for the taste of home, and Chinatown is just around the corner from the University of Liverpool, just four kilometres from Anfield, a 15-minute drive away.

Driving under the archway, the street is similar to other streets in Liverpool, but there are several shops with more Chinese style signs, and a plaque has been erected outside one of the restaurants, which has a big blessing character written on it, and you can see it when you arrive at the archway.

Twin Treasure Noodle Noodles, New Sichuan, Jumbo Building...... The shops along the way are hung with Chinese signs, but some are traditional and some are simplified, and the list is a bit chaotic, and Yang Cheng is most frequented by a Zhou Ji restaurant.

As the name suggests, the owner's surname is Zhou, and he has been in Liverpool for many years.

This street is not wide, and Yang Cheng parked next to the store, for fear of accidentally blocking the road.

"Ah, Mr. Yang Cheng!" As soon as I entered the door, the waiter greeted me with a smile.

"Hello!" Yang Cheng responded with a smile, using standard Chinese.

Although Chinatown is not big, this area is basically in Chinese, especially when people are communicating, it must be Chinese, and there have even been cases of domestic students being scolded for shopping in English in Chinatown.

"What are you going to eat today?"

"Say hello to a few friends, give me a private room, and then stir-fry a few specialty dishes." Yang Cheng smiled casually.

"Haole, follow me!" The waiter immediately took him into one of the private rooms by the window, and after asking for the number of people, the dishes, chopsticks, wine glasses, and so on were all laid out at once.

"Do you want to drink?" The waiter asked thoughtfully, Yang Cheng, as a Chinese, has made such a big name in Liverpool and Europe, and these Chinese people are also competing for glory.

Nowadays, there are many foreigners who come to Chinatown to eat, and almost all of them ask, "Are you Caesar's compatriots?" and they all look up and nod their heads, yes, we are all Chinese.

It's too long!

Yang Cheng shook his head, "Call again!" ”

"Good!" The waiter smiled and withdrew.

Yang Cheng himself is a very punctual person, and after looking at the time, it should be almost there, so he waited patiently.

But as soon as he poured himself a cup of tea, and before he could take a sip, the owner of the restaurant knocked on the door and came in.

"Mr. Yang!"

"Boss Zhou!" Yang Cheng stood up with a smile.

The two politely greeted each other and sat down.

"Is there something wrong?" Yang Cheng asked, he often frequented Zhou Ji Restaurant, and he had chatted with the owner here a few times, but it was the first time to visit like this, so Yang Cheng was a little surprised.

"That's right, I don't know if you've heard about the Liverpool House of Commons election?" Zhou Liang asked.

Yang Cheng nodded, "Of course, this is a big deal. "It's just not about football.

Zhou Liang nodded, "It's a big deal, originally we businessmen didn't have a bottom here, but since we have this China Town, we can also be regarded as having a settlement, and now we all hope that someone can stand up for us, protect our interests, and hold us Chinese together." ”

Yang Cheng poured Zhou Liang a cup of tea, and after stopping, he couldn't help nodding, "This is a good thing." ”

"yes, so we're going to elect one person together to run for the House of Commons." Zhou Liang said with a smile.

"You know, there has never been a Chinese who has successfully participated in politics in Britain before, and this is the first time in the world." Zhou Liang's heart was excited, after all, someone could lead them, but he also knew that it would be difficult.

"But if you want to run for the House of Commons, you have to join a political party." Yang Cheng's brows furrowed.

Participating in politics, this is not something that can be done casually. "We know that there is a compatriot in Chinatown, who is a **, who has been in Liverpool for many years, and has been a member of the Conservative Party for some years, and we plan to help him come out and run. Zhou Liang said with a smile. Yang Cheng immediately understood, nodded and said, "Okay, if there is anything you need my help with, just say, if you can do it, I will definitely help!" ”

"Great!" Zhou Liang patted his thigh, he had long heard that Yang Cheng was in Germany and Italy, and he often helped the local Chinese, but there was no such thing as participating in politics, and now that he was willing to stand up and help, it would be much more convenient.

You must know that helping Liverpool win the league championship, Yang Cheng's status in the hearts of local Liverpool fans is very high, and what they want to fight for is just a seat in the city's House of Commons.

"With Mr. Yang's support, you must get twice the result with half the effort!" Zhou Liang smiled and secretly praised it.

"This is what I should do!" Yang Cheng said that they are all his compatriots, and all he can do is to stand up and appeal, because he is not a Liverpudian at all, and he is not even qualified to be elected.

"Then I won't disturb your meal!" Zhou Liang got the answer he wanted and stood up, "Today's meal, I'm in for a treat, Mr. Yang, don't be polite to me." After speaking, he didn't give Yang Cheng a chance to refuse, and withdrew directly.

As soon as Zhou Liang walked on the front foot, Lin Mo and Ye Wen arrived on the back foot.

In addition to them, Su Maozhen, who wanted to study on Yang Cheng's side, Li Tie, who played for Everton, and Sun Jihai, who played for Manchester, also came to Chinatown one after another, and when they heard Yang Cheng talk about the Chinese running for the city House of Commons, they all clapped their hands in support.

A group of people rarely get together, although they are all Chinese, but Yang Cheng is a top European coach, Li Tie and Sun Jihai are bench players who can't play in their respective teams, and they usually don't have much contact, but now together, Yang Cheng does not have the frame of a top coach at all, and they greet each other very warmly, and they are familiar with each other.

"To be honest, you don't know that in Everton, the one that everyone talks about the most is Caesar!" Li Tie, as Yang Cheng's sworn enemy, introduced the team's anecdotes, "Especially the fans of Everton, they hate you, I heard that when Liverpool won the championship, I can't wait to swallow you!" ”

Yang Cheng laughed when he heard this, "To be honest, have you ever scolded me?" ”

"How can it?" Li Tie immediately shook his head, "I really think you have won glory for our countrymen!" ”

After listening to this, a group of people nodded vigorously, especially Lin Mo, Li Tie and other people who played in Europe, and they knew Yang Cheng's influence in Europe.

"By the way, Yang Cheng, do you remember Arteta?" Li Tie asked with a smile.

Yang Cheng nodded, when he couldn't buy Alonso, he wanted to poach Arteta, but this guy switched to Real Sociedad for his girlfriend, and was later loaned to Everton during the winter break, and Yang Cheng didn't like to be rejected, so he chose Carrick during the winter break.

"He regrets it so much now, he regrets it in my ears all day long, saying that if he joined Liverpool in the first place, what is he doing now, I think he is about to regret screwing his head off!"

Li Tie's words made everyone present burst into laughter.

A group of compatriots, far away in a foreign country, chatted with each other and felt very cordial, kept joking, and the relationship between them became closer and closer.

"To be honest, Yang Cheng, you give me and Haizi a little bit of dialing, can we still mix in the Premier League?" After eating, a group of people were chatting more, Li Tie asked a little sentimentally.

Yang Cheng glanced at the two of them, nodded and said, "Yes!" ”

"Really?" Li Tie couldn't believe it, and Sun Jihai also raised his head and looked at Yang Cheng with concern.

"I'd never lie about something like this!" Yang Cheng became serious, "Sun Jihai's strength can definitely play the main force in Manchester City, but there is not much advantage, our talent is not as good as others, we have to rely on hard work, diligence, stable state and work ethics in exchange for the main position." ”

Everyone nodded in unison, and Yang Cheng was also very diligent among the head coaches.

'Everton's situation is a bit different from Liverpool's, David Moyes collapsed last season, more because he was positioning himself higher, in the 02/03 season Everton had good results and almost got into the European qualification zone, he was a little bit blind, but he shouldn't be making the same mistake again this season. ,

'Mikel Arteta and Graveson will be in the main position, so I think if you want to play, it's better to move!' Yang Cheng said bluntly that he believed that Li Tie himself knew. David Moyes is an ambitious manager who will not settle for Everton's mediocrity, and this season he brought in Tim Cahill from Millwall, who is also a midfielder, and Everton's midfield competition is very high, and it is difficult for Li Tie to get a chance at the Toffees.

"You're only 27 years old, you can play in the Premier League for a few more years, only a high level of game training can ensure competitive fitness, and besides, European football is a mature business world, there is no betrayal, everyone is planning for their own future, thinking about their own future."

After Li Tie listened, he nodded, he still had time to make a decision, and the transfer market had not yet closed.

"I'll think about it!" Li Tie was a little lonely, after all, he came to Europe and the first team he played for was Everton.

Chinese, in fact, really attach importance to feelings.

Now that he had said this, Yang Cheng looked at Su Maozhen.

"I've also arranged that after you apply for the coaching class, you will go directly to the Melwood coaching staff, but I can't directly arrange you to your side, you can only do some basic work like the most ordinary coaches, but you can get in touch with all aspects of the club, including Kirkby's academy, as well as some training programs on the first team's side, tactical analysis meetings, etc."

Su Maozhen understands that Yang Cheng's coaching staff is not said to be in the Premier League, even in the world, it is the top, Paul Beyer, Tim Hank, Benitez and others, who are not the most top-notch professionals, although he used to play football, but in the coaching profession, he is just beginning to toddle.

A set of coaching team is actually a place that pays attention to strength, if Yang Cheng arranges Su Maozhen into it, it will definitely be no problem, but if he can't help, he will be looked down upon and ostracized, which is even more unfavorable to him.

It's better to study down-to-earth, start with some basic things, although the position Yang Cheng arranged for him is very tiring and there are a lot of things, but the reverse can be thought of like this, there are more things, more things are exposed to, and more things can be learned.

"If you can survive two or three years, I can guarantee that you will be able to get a job with any team in Europe!" Yang Cheng said very confidently.

He was qualified to make such a judgment, and no one would suspect that he was bragging, because he was Caesar.

…………

…………

After finishing the meal, Lin Mo and Ye Wen of course refused to give up this opportunity to be close to the water, and immediately grabbed Yang Cheng to ask for an exclusive interview, saying that they wanted to take it back to China to be published.

As for the others, they dispersed after eating.

After finishing all this, Yang Cheng sent Ye Wen and Lin Mo to the hotel again, and then returned to Melwood.

Paul Beyer has arranged Su Maozhen's job according to Yang Cheng's explanation, and the club will also give him a part-time contract at this time, he can receive a salary, although it can't be compared with a full-time coach, but at least he doesn't need to worry about the cost of this time in Liverpool.

After doing these things, Yang Cheng began to devote himself to the preparation of the season.

On 14 August, the drums of the Premier League were beating and the opening match was scheduled at White Hart Lane in London, with Tottenham Hotspur hosting the Reds against Liverpool.

Santini has struggled with Tottenham's defence throughout the summer, and the presence of Premier League stars such as Ledley King and Steve Carr, combined with his counter-attacking tactics on his home turf, led to a helpless draw in the first round of the league.

1:1, Liverpool took the lead by Drogba to score, but then Liverpool couldn't attack for a long time, and was in a hurry, and Tottenham Hotspur equalized in the second half with Defoe's counterattack, and then Liverpool frequently hit hard attacks, but it was difficult to work.

With a 1-1 draw, Liverpool's Premier League start has not been satisfactory.

For this draw, Yang Cheng is very open.

'Everyone knows that the first few rounds of the league are difficult because the players have just gone through a long period of relaxation and preparation, their bodies are not yet able to adjust to the rhythm of the season, and the summer squad is in and out, so it is inevitable that there will be some impacts. "I don't have much to say about the draw because we had the advantage on the pitch but unfortunately the opposition defended well and we couldn't convert that advantage into goals, that's all. ”

As if to prove that, six of the 10 matches in the first round of the Premier League have been drawn, five of which have been 1-1 and one 2-2 draw at home to Newcastle at Middlesbrough.

In the highlight-up of the first round, Chelsea beat Alex Ferguson's Manchester United 1-0 at home thanks to a goal from Judrent Gudjohnsen, while Arsenal beat Everton 4-1 away, and the Gunners also temporarily topped the table with this big win.

After a week's rest, Liverpool sat at home and beat the visiting Manchester City 2-0 to claim their first win of the season.

Chelsea narrowly beat Birmingham City 1-0, Manchester United beat Norwich City 2-1 at home and Arsenal beat Middlesbrough 5-3 at home, with four of the Premier League's most talked-about teams in the Premier League winning the title this season.

On the 25th, in the third round of the Premier League, Liverpool defeated Portsmouth 4:0 at home, and after returning from the Athens World Cup, Xiao Xiao Luo immediately played, Liverpool's main squad last season was reorganized, and the Red Army immediately recovered its strong attacking power, and the Trident broke out with amazing offensive power, and the opponent was bloodied at home.

Arsenal and Chelsea both won as both sides led the Premier League table from the start, while Manchester United picked up another draw as Ferguson was held to a 0-0 draw at home by Everton.

After the third round of the league, Liverpool travelled to Monaco for the UEFA Super Cup.

Last season's European champion Porto collapsed this summer's lineup, facing Liverpool coached by Yang Cheng, they didn't even have the power to parry, and were directly beaten 4:1 by Liverpool, who had strong attacking power, or finally Quaresma's exquisite goal in the 87th minute, which saved Porto from an embarrassment.

After winning the UEFA Super Cup, Liverpool also achieved the hegemony of the five crowns, which also made countless media report on Liverpool, believing that the team is embarking on a path of comprehensive recovery, especially Yang Cheng's transformation of the Red Army, which has brought Liverpool back to the right path of development.

After this Super Cup, Yang Cheng stayed in Monte Carlo, because the draw for the group stage of the European Champions Cup was held here, and he decided to stay for the draw ceremony. Xiaomei gauze

This time UEFA is very kind, looking at the 8 groups, there is no group of death, and they did not "coincidentally" arrange a confrontation between rivals for Yang Cheng this time, but as the Champions League champion last season, Porto and Chelsea were drawn together, and Mourinho faced his old club, which was also a gimmick.

Each group is divided by strength and weakness, Liverpool meets Monaco, Olympiacos and Deportivo La Coruna, it should be regarded as a more balanced group, after all, Liverpool came to the Champions League for the first time after the team restructured, Monaco was the runner-up last season, Super Laco has also been a stable La Liga powerhouse over the years, and there are three teams in the whole group that are stronger.

However, the outside world generally believes that it is not difficult for Liverpool to qualify, and Yang Cheng is best at playing cup games and is known as the king of cup competitions.

The other groups are also two top league teams with a second-rate league team and a weak team, for the top league giants, unless it is really a gutter overturn, otherwise, it is really difficult to not qualify, after all, where is the strength of the giants. Unmanned gauze

And after this draw, the team ushered in two weeks of international breaks.

Yang Cheng, who is in Liverpool, ushered in a troubled September. 【Sailing small also provides】
