Chapter 6 The Legend of One Number (The Second Update, Asking for a Monthly Pass ()!) ）

The team's training for the new season has begun, and one thing should also be determined, that is, Chen Yingying's number.

In fact, when Chen Yingying signed a personal treatment contract with Niang, he said that he wanted to get No. 9. He likes the number that symbolizes a strong centre-forward, and his love didn't start with St Pieter's Zenit, which he has loved since he started playing. In the sports school, in the junior team, in the youth team, he is this number. When he was a child, he fought with other teammates in order to fight for the right to use this number, which can be regarded as really using his own blood and ...... Snot defended the number.

When he arrived at Zenit St. Petersburg, because he joined the team too late, No. 9 had already been decided, so he could only play on the field with No. 99. Later, as soon as he had the opportunity, he changed to number nine.

On Liverpool's side, Chen Yingying's special request can't be considered a request, because just as Torres left, this number has been empty, and no one uses it at all (). It's nothing for Chen Yingying now, it's just a favor.

So the No. 9 shirt with Chen Yingying's name on it was officially put on sale in the Liverpool FC store.

According to the statistics report of Liverpool's business development department, the number nine shirt with Chen Yingxing's name printed on it sold well, and more than 1,000 pieces of Chen Yingying's shirt were sold on the first day.

That's because Chen Yingying has already won a lot of new fans for himself with his wonderful performance in Napoli last season, and the media has been hyping him, which has also boosted his fame. Chasing stars, chasing stars, isn't chasing the most famous star? Whoever is most popular these days is popular.

For Chen Yingying to join Liverpool, Liverpool fans really like it. They even forgot about the Spanish traitor who defected to Chelsea in an instant - they all have Chen Yingying, who cares about Torres!

Liverpool fans talk about the club's new owner, Chen Xing, and general manager Niang, praising their courage and ability. But they all forgot that when Torres left the team, it was the same two people who were scolded by them......

Chen Yingying's No. 9 jersey is selling well, which not only reflects the fans' love for him, but also the media's high hopes for him.

Because this number has a very special meaning for Liverpool......

Torres gave the number a little bit of brilliance again, but it was too short. There were also media who didn't know Liverpool's history before saying that "the hero took over Torres' number, which is both pressure and motivation for him", and the result was laughing and generous, making people laugh and laugh at the same time being scolded miserably.

But it also illustrates an embarrassing state of affairs for Liverpool FC – they have been so decadent over the years that a Torres has become almost synonymous with Liverpool's history. Many people don't know much about Liverpool, this is because Liverpool has not made good results, and now people are indifferent to their impressions, after all, there are fewer and fewer old people, and fresh blood is pouring in, but Liverpool lacks the means to let fresh blood understand them and like them ().

Many people still remember Fowler wearing Liverpool's number nine shirt as good as well, and further afield, only the real Liverpool die-hard fans will know.

In fact, Liverpool's number nine is not just the number Torres and Fowler once worn, and if it were just these two people, it would not be enough to make this number special for Liverpool.

In Liverpool's history, the number nine is a true legend, because this one belongs to the top scorer Ian Brown. Rush's number, Rush left behind 346 goals for Liverpool, the Reds' all-time leading scorer.

Handing over the number nine to Chen Yingying, you can also see the confidence of Liverpool in Chen Yingying.

But what about pressure...... Actually, it's really nothing, because for so many years, except for one Torres, Liverpool's No. 9 is basically who uses who is unlucky. Even if you don't perform well and don't bring Nine back to its glory, that's okay, it's normal.

This number has been sinking for too long after all.

A few years before Torres, Liverpool's number nine was a joke, Diouf could only pass people and not shoot, and Cisse spent most of his time in a hospital bed, and for a while, the number nine became a curse for Anfield.

Finally, a Torres arrived, and maybe he could bring the Nine back to glory. He switched to Chelsea, which was unforgivable for many Liverpool fans.

So Nine is still like an outcast that no one wants, and no one wants to get involved with it.

After No. 9 was vacant for half a season, Chen Yingying came.

He named the number nine, if the number also has an independent consciousness, I don't know if it will be excited to open the main system?

Anyway, this number is now worn on Chen Yingying's body.

He didn't think about it that much, he just chose this number simply because he liked the number nine (). For him, the number nine is the traditional centre-forward number, a symbol of a strong body, a great sense of sight in front of goal, a lethal shot and, of course, an endless arsenal of goals.

Modern football tactics have become more and more ambiguous and diverse in terms of the position and corresponding role of the players, and many players have become a panacea. Even in the name of a center forward, the most things he does on the court is not to shoot and score, but to defend, pull, cross, and cover......

This number is gradually no longer available to the center, and it slowly loses its original color and symbolism.

Although Chen Yingying is a quasi-post-90s, at this point, his concept is still quite traditional - No. 9 should be the number of a strong center, and a center who can't score should not wear No. 9!

As for what this number really meant to Liverpool, he only found out when he habitually scrolled through the task list after returning to the hotel.

※※※

Just when Chen Yingying took over the No. 9 jersey, the mission system also started another mission.

"Let the Legend Numbers shine again".

"Legendary numbers?" Chen Yingying was strange. Although he knows a little bit about Liverpool's history, but only to introduce the history of the team, he can know about Bill. Shankly is still so famous because of this man. Of course he couldn't have known about Ian. What number did Rush wear......

Fortunately, the introduction of this task is very intimate, and the cause and effect of the task are explained very clearly.

After reading it, Chen Yingying knew that he was with Ian. Rush is such a relationship, so the number nine is a legendary number in Liverpool.

"Three hundred and forty-six balls......" Chen Yingying rubbed his chin and muttered the number.

Do you have a chance to surpass him?

Just as he was thinking about it, he heard a sound effect from the computer that he was particularly familiar with - the sound of a successful mission in World of Warcraft ()!

Chen Yingying looked down at the web page on the computer screen, and there was an extra red task in the task list!

"Holy! This Dracula is too lazy! Even the sound effects are directly copycat World of Warcraft! ”

After scolding, he went to see what kind of task it was.

As a result, you can see the content by looking at the name.

"Beyond the Legend": Scored to surpass Ian at Liverpool. Rush's goal count!

Chen Yingying was stunned for a moment, and suddenly realized the problem - this task is red! In other words, the system judged that it would be very, very difficult for Chen Yingying to complete this task!

The reason for the difficulty may be Chen's lack of ability, or it may be that he feels that he will not be able to spend fifteen seasons at Liverpool and score at least 346 goals......

In short, Chen Yingying, who reacted, was angry - he felt that he was underestimated and offended by the system!

Three hundred and forty-six goals, an average of thirty-five goals in one season, isn't ten seasons enough? I'm only 23 years old this year, and I'll be 33 years old in 10 years, what are I afraid of?

I'm going to try it again!

Originally, Chen Yingying didn't plan to do this task, but now he has the ambition to compete with those legends in history.

Just like in Naples, the city is full of Maradona's followers, all willing to live in the fond memories of the past. Chen Yingying prefers to wrestle with the myth of Maradona and pull the whole city of Naples out of the dream of good memories of the past.

The result...... He felt like he had done it.

Who says dreams are the only ones that are wonderful? When you open your eyes, you can see the sun beating all over the house, and you're in the same good mood. People can't live forever in false memories and dreams, but they still have to live in reality with their feet on the ground.

Ian. Rush is a legend, so I'll write my new legend!

Just from ...... Beyond Ian. Rush begins!

※※※

No one knew that Chen Yingying had made such a decision in his heart, and Chen Yingying would not be stupid enough to go around and say to others, "I want to surpass Ian. Rush: "Something like that.

Surpassing Rush is something that will take a long time to undertake, but that doesn't mean it's too early. In fact, the completion of any one thing requires meticulous and lengthy preparation and effort.

Even now, he can still make some efforts for this. For example, training hard and building relationships with his team-mates – if you want to surpass Rush, you need a lot of goals, and of course you have to rely on your team-mates to pass the ball to him. If his relationship with his teammates is stiff and no one passes him on the pitch, no amount of ambition will end up being a joke.

The sales of Chen Yingying's No. 9 jersey are still optimistic, and among Melwood fans, more and more people are already wearing No. 9 jerseys with "ER" printed on the back.

This used to belong to Ian. Rush, who belongs to Fowler, belongs to Torres.

Now it belongs to Chen Yingying.

Ian. Rush wore this number to become the greatest goalscorer in English football in the 80s, and he was among the best in world football.

Now he wants to bring back the long-lost number, but not only to the number, but also to Liverpool's long-lost glory ......@.
