On March 19, the official website of Newcastle Club announced that Manchester United wide player Juan Mata will join Newcastle on short-term loan for three months!

However, this announcement did not attract much attention in the British domestic media circles!

Because Juan Mata's poor performance in the past year has long since made the unprofitable reporters lose interest in him!

Only the local media in Newcastle City have made a small report, and judging from the headline they have drafted, it seems that the Newcastle people prefer to regard this transfer as a momentary act of kindness by the manager Maniac Lee's disciple - "Manchester United Parallel Goods Hand in Hands with Former Mentor, Juan Mata's Career May Take a Turnaround"

Exclusive: Juan Mata joins Newcastle on loan

"Manchester United finally got rid of Ferguson's blind man, and 10 million parallel goods moved to Newcastle"

"The old madman Li saves his former disciples, and he is afraid of bringing financial burdens to the magpies"

…… March 20 afternoon!

At the behest of Maniac Lee, Newcastle FC made an exception to hold a small fan meeting for Juan Mata, who was only joining the club on loan!

It's a pity that God is not beautiful!

At around 15:00 in the afternoon, it was raining lightly in the sky!

Thankfully, Lee has earned enough status in the hearts of Newcastle fans, and there are about 2,000 Magpies fans who responded to the call of manager Maniac Lee and braved the rain to attend the Juan Mata fan meeting at St James' Park!

The whole process is simple!

Juan Mata has granted some fans' autograph wishes after a bouncing performance on the rain in Newcastle's No. 66 black and white sword-striped shirt! However, judging from the lively scene where the vast majority of fans rushed to sign autographs around Li Tongfan, Xiao Mata could naturally feel that more than 2,000 people were actually coming for Lao Li!

But that didn't make Juan Mata unhappy!

After more than a year of experience, he has long understood that if he wants to win the cheers and support of the fans, he has to rely on his feet to speak on the green field!

Moreover, in Mata's view, the "mentor" Li Tongfan can win the favor of fans, which is truly well-deserved!

…… After the fan meeting!

Lao Li's office!

“…… Feeling a little lost? Hmm......" Li Tongfan smiled with interest and asked his former proud disciple: "It seems that the fans don't seem to trust you very much......"

Mata shook his head and said seriously: "Actually, compared to the enthusiastic reporters from the major media outlets who flocked to Manchester United when they first joined Manchester United, these unenthusiastic fans today are more comfortable...... Soon, I will use my performance to show all Newcastle fans that Juan Mata can be trusted! ”

…… March 21.

The 30th [***] curtain of the English Premier League has begun!

Newcastle take on Fulham at home to St James' Park!

With a big win over a strong Tottenham Hotspur just four days ago, Newcastle fans have a lot of hope for this game! And in addition, this is the first home game since Crazy Lee took charge, and the popularity of the stands can be imagined!

Newcastle fans who were not able to attend the White Hart Lane game four days ago flocked to St James' Park as compensation!

In the stands, countless black and white flags and Newcastle's emblem fluttered wildly in the cold night breeze!

…… However, Lee Tong-beom's starting line-up for the game changed a lot - before the game, due to a slight injury to No. 1 goalkeeper Given, Given, was given a chance to start by substitute goalkeeper Steve Harper!

Alan Smith, who has been fighting continuously, was not selected as the starter due to poor physical condition, and the Turkish Emre, who performed brilliantly in the battle of White Hart Lane, naturally became Li Tongfan's first choice!

And the Czech central defender David Lozehar, who made a big mistake before, was unsurprisingly beaten into the cold by the madman Lee, and Senegalese central defender Faye got a chance!

On the other hand, Cameroonian full-back Habibie replaced Charles N'Zogbia in the starting position!

At the same time, due to the suspension of the team's only "waist pole" Joey Button, Juan Mata, who is on loan from Manchester United, was unexpectedly given the opportunity to start, and formed the Magpies' wings with the Irish fast Madhav! James Milner moves to the middle and plays as a central midfielder!

It's no surprise that it's Irving partnering Nicholas Bendtner on the front line!

Everyone was looking forward to a hearty victory tonight for Crazy Lee, but it was a tough one for Newcastle!

Victory almost slipped through the fingers!

…… At the beginning of the game, Newcastle, who were fighting at home, had no surprise and firmly grasped the initiative on the field!

In the 9th minute, Newcastle got a free kick opportunity in front!

Turkish midfielder Emre continued his heroic form in the previous game, beating Fulham goalkeeper Nemi with a brilliant curling banana ball from around 25 yards out!

1：0！

Magpies get off to a dream start!

The atmosphere at St James' Park has also reached the first wave**!

…… In the 11th minute, Newcastle won a throw-in in front!

Cameroonian full-back Habibie tosses the ball to Juan Mata, who strikes down the middle before the Fulham players can press for it!

In the middle, Emre, who received a pass from Mata, went straight to the stop!

The ball passed between the two central defenders of Fulham, and the Irish fast Madhav successfully countered offside and calmly pushed the middle!

The small gate of Fulham Gate god Nemi is "miserable" broken...... 2：0！

It looks like the Goddess of Victory is already tickling the nerves of the Newcastle people with her head scratching!

…… With a two-goal lead in less than a quarter of an hour, a one-sided massacre seemed imminent! But the situation seems to be gradually exceeding people's expectations!

After the Magpies' top scorer Michael Owen missed two back-to-back solo shots, Fulham pulled a goal back in a quick counter-attack by their Senegalese striker Kamara in an offside position!

2：1！

The game is in suspense again!

…… In the 25th minute, the waves on the pitch were renewed!

It's the Senegalese Camara again!

This time, the Fulham striker used his speed to eat Newcastle centre-back Faye raw and went to the meeting alone!

Newcastle substitute goalkeeper Steve Harper is old and frail, and his explosiveness is too weak! In the face of Kamara, who is known for his speed, there is nothing to be done, and there is no suspense to pick up the ball from the goal again...... 2：2！

Fulham unexpectedly equalised!

This scene made Li Tongfan, who was standing in front of the command seat on the sidelines, shake his head helplessly!

It seems that Steven Taylor's partner problem has to be solved quickly! Neither the Senegalese Faye nor the Czech Lozejar are ideal!

…… Thankfully, the nightmare didn't go on!

In the shouting and cheering of more than 50,000 Newcastle fans at St James' Park, Michael Owen finally grasped the third chance of a single goal - the lightning killer received a scalpel-like through ball after Bendtner attracted the Fulham defenders, and scored to bring the score back to Newcastle again!

3：2！

Newcastle are back in the dressing room with a one-goal lead!

…… Everyone thought that after a fifteen-minute break at halftime, Crazy Lee would definitely be able to help the team find the direction of victory and defeat Fulham who dared to challenge the majesty of [God on the sidelines] in one fell swoop, but ...... But a scene that happened in the first minute of the second half broke the jaws of more than 50,000 Magpie fans in the stands!

Newcastle's No.2 goalkeeper Steve Harper received a return pass from full-back Habibie, and then slipped the ball out of the penalty area, and then passed the ball to Fulham striker Kamara with a careless pass!

Fatal mistake!

At this moment, the exclamations of the fans in the stands at St James' Park were almost like 250 ultra-powerful air dryers installed in the stadium...... On the field!

Fulham striker Kamara didn't waste Steve Harper's kindness and smiled at the gift - he just swung his leg on the spot and sent the ball into the empty net!

Harper seemed to have just come to his senses at this time, turned around and desperately chased back but fell on the lawn in embarrassment!

This scene made the fans in the stands cover their faces in shame!

And Steve Hardy is even more eager to learn the seventy-two changes of Sun Monkey at once, turn into a silly ostrich, make a hole in the lawn, and bury his head...... 3：3！

It's flat?

St. James' Park fell silent for a while, and Lee Tong-fan made a decisive substitution at this moment - the Turkish Emre, who had lost physical strength, and Alan Smith, who had rested for most of the half!

Newcastle attacked like enraged beasts, and the Newcastle fans in the stands turned into a roaring English Channel after a brief silence!

The people of Newcastle have chosen to unite and unite at this moment!

However, the goddess of victory seems to have suddenly changed her surname! Just now, she was still teasing the Newcastle people with a hungry face, but now she is like a Zhenlieqi woman, and she refuses to take a step beyond the "thunder pool"!

Both Owen and Bendtner have been wasting the chances created by the midfielders!

And James Milner and Alan Smith, who have been in the main lineup since this season, are obviously not in good physical condition in this game, and they lack the lethal shots in the past!

Another midfielder, Juan Mata, has yet to fully adapt to Newcastle's play...... Of course, what is more important is that Li Tongfan has not yet "recovered" him through FM2008!

Because now is not the best time to "recover" the little Mata!

…… Time passed quietly in Newcastle's onslaught round after round!

St James' Park is getting nervous and smoking!

In the stands, almost all the fans have shouted out their voices, but it looks like even if they shout hoarsely and fall to the ground, they will hold on! While it wasn't the case that fans booed their players at home in the first half of the league season, it's different!

Because no one is lazy on the pitch today!

Because standing in front of Newcastle's command today is not the dazed Allardyce who used to be, but the passionate madman Lee who keeps making changes!

In the 55th minute, Bendtner resisted a Fulham defender and forced a shot that went slightly wide...... In the 57th minute, Owen received a cross from Milner and his header flew off the crossbar...... In the 64th minute, Alan Smith hit the post with his foot from 30 yards out...... In the 74th minute, after receiving a pass from Alan Smith, Duff dribbled past a Fulham defender and pushed into the far corner, but was blocked by goalkeeper Niemi miraculously...... 80th minute............ The game is drawing to a close, but Fulham's goal seems to be getting stronger!

No matter what kind of shooting method the Newcastle players use, it seems that it will be difficult to knock on the ten fingers of the 35-year-old Finnan veteran goalkeeper Niemi for the fourth time!

In the 85th minute, Newcastle suffered a big blow!

Senegalese central defender Faye fell to the ground in a scramble with compatriot and Fulham striker Camara, and the Newcastle team doctor immediately signaled for Li Tongfan to replace after a slight examination, and Faye was no longer able to hold on to the game!

Second uncle's!

Although I have already known the process and results through the system deduction of FM2008, when I really saw this scene, Lao Li was still a little depressed!

Why do you say that there is such a big gap between people and people?

is also a, the same Senegalese, why did Kamara "poke" three holes in Harper's body in a beautiful game, and you Faye finally threw yourself into the arms of the angels in white after the first time in Lao Tzu's kindness?

Turning his head to look at the bench, he was hoping that none of the five hammers on the pitch were from a central defender, and alas, he had to let full-back Charles N'Zogbia top it!

Faye's injury seems to be a sign that this Newcastle game is a bit unpleasant!

Although the crazy Magpie fans in the stands are still shouting, they are ready to accept the draw! Of course, no one will blame the crazy Li, after all, he has only been in charge of the team for less than ten days, and there must be a run-in process, right? Even at Real Madrid, the madman Lee had lost to Inter Milan and Manchester United in the first few friendlies...... But Li Tongfan himself doesn't think so!

Seeing that even the hammers who were playing on the field seemed to have some intention of accepting the draw, Li Tongfan rushed to the edge of the stadium in anger like an angry lion who had been robbed of his spouse!

This is a very rare scene!

Even if the second goalkeeper Steve Harper gave Fulham a goal at the beginning of the second half, which can be called an idiot-level big foot mistake, Li Tongfan has never been so angry!

Because, compared to making mistakes and not working hard, they are completely two different concepts!

Lao Li's anger obviously made the Newcastle stars dismiss their intention to give up!

In the 89th minute of the game, Newcastle's efforts finally reaped the results!

Juan Mata won the ball on the right flank and switched to the middle! In the face of the blocking of the Fulham players, they forced a straight into the penalty area!

At the edge of the penalty area, Owen leaned on Fulham central defender Karry Stanwal with his junior, and chose to pass the ball directly in the face of the flying football, and gently made it to the side...... Nicholas Bendtner swings his leg on the spot and shoots!

The angle of the shot in a hurry was tricky, the football slipped into the net on the right side of the goal, and the old goalkeeper Niemi was finally unable to do anything!

A balloon!!

Lore!!

4：3！！

Bendtner, who scored the killer goal, ignored the warning of the Topaz God of War card and ran to the fans to show off his six-pack abs, and the noise created by the frenzied Newcastle fans was able to shake the moon and stars in the night sky for an unknown number of kilometers...... But at this moment, Li Tongfan entered the player tunnel very dissatisfied!

A pyrrhic victory!

Even a third- or fourth-rate player in the Premier League like Kamara can score a hat-trick on Newcastle, how can this stuffy man be embarrassed? If we meet Manchester United and Arsenal in the next few games, we won't let goalscorers like Wayne Rooney and Bam Adebayor break their personal goal records and hit the scorers' list on Newcastle?

It's a shame!

Of course, Li Tongfan can also choose to use FM2008 abnormal archiving to avoid such embarrassment!

But that's not the root of the problem!

Football is a game of 11 men, so the players on the pitch must do their best for glory!

Want to win?

In addition to Li Tongfan's "cheating" at the expense of character points, the players' own efforts are also essential!

Because, in reality, the players' game mentality and state will be directly reflected in the M2008 system!

Essentially, reality and gaming are two complementary "partners"! If you don't correct the strength of Newcastle in reality and the players' attitude towards the game, if it continues like this, then Li Tongfan will lose sooner or later even if he has more character points!

Like when I was at Real Madrid!

The superstars of the Galaxy Battleship not only have strength, but also do not lack the fighting spirit to pursue honor, such a player reaction in the FM2007 system will get a higher evaluation of strength, so Li Tongfan in the use of the FM2007 system for game push under normal circumstances rarely use abnormal archives!

But when it came to Newcastle, although Lao Li used FM-MM to make a lot of changes to key players in advance, Fulham, who played a second-rate team at home, actually used three abnormal saves to get a 4:3 defeat, which had to make the stuffy man find the reason from reality!

First of all, it is a matter of mentality to transform Newcastle's players!

Now the Magpies' first-team stars, except for Michael Irving, Alan Smith and others, others don't seem to have the consciousness to see themselves as a quasi-giant who are determined to pursue supreme glory! Even settle for a small league win, and then become timid when facing a big team!

No matter how strong such a team and player is, they will definitely not be able to become a climate!

Because it lacks something called spirit in its bones!

…… In addition to the mentality, the second thing is to strengthen the Magpie's offensive ability!

And there are two most direct ways to achieve this goal, one is to buy a large number of high-quality players, but to change tactics!

The former is clearly not feasible!

Because after the loan move to Juan Mata, Newcastle's three loan slots this season have all been used up! And in the case that the European transfer market is not opened, there is no other way but to go to the free agent market Taobao! But then again, if any player has a little ability, can he still be a free agent?

At least until July 1st, the road to recruiting talents has been blocked!

In this case, Li Tongfan will have to change the 4-1-2-1-2 tactic that he has always been most accustomed to!

…… After returning to his villa on Chengdong Beach, Li Tongfan opened the Hummer GO-BOOK and started the FM-2008 system, and began to think about tactical changes in front of the computer screen!

The most direct way to increase your attack power is, of course, to increase the number of offensive players!

Looking at the four forwards of Viduka, Bendtner, Owen and Ameobi in the Newcastle team, the sullen man suddenly lit up! It's a shame that there are so many guys who are keen on attacking and are not weak enough to only have two starts, so why don't we try it 4-3-3?

Since Joey Barton, a red-card professional, is unreliable, it would be better to simply remove the midfielder and create an attacking frenzy in the Premier League!

Offense instead of defense!

Think of Owen, Bendtner, Viduka and other guys appearing on the court at the same time, with the spirit of a wild dog and the crazy shooting like a machine gun to "shoot" the goalkeeper one by one...... Gee!

Refreshing!

The stuffy man wiped a handful of saliva!

Three minutes later!

Coming back to his senses from the Italian silver, Lao Li began to click on the FM-MM to "restore" Juan Mata's value!

According to the Premier League schedule, Newcastle will take on the Red Devils Manchester United at Old Trafford in mid-April, and Li wants to make Junior Mata the star of the night of the day! Let the fans and journalists who have booed, scolded and spit on Juan Mata be ashamed!

Because Juan Mata is the proud disciple of his madman Lee, Lao Li not only holds grudges, but also protects his shortcomings!

Click on the FM-mm to enter the Newcastle page, and the system suddenly jumps out of a large bright red reminder box like a convulsion:

“…… Dington, the system reminds you that Newcastle player Juan Mata has been detected as a player you have promoted, and it is recommended to consume 2 character points to restore the data before January 3, 2007, is it restored? ”

Well, I see!

It seems that in the settings of the system, players who have only been modified before but later because they are out of the gamer's control can spend a small amount of character points to return to the original data level when they are reclassified into the team controlled by the gamer!

This is a very humanized setting!

At least in the FM2008 system of "inflation" of character points, it can help Li Tongfan save a lot of character!

Before officially confirming the restoration of Juan Mata, Lao Li was very curious to observe the existing data of Xiao Zhengtai, and the results made Li Tongfan a little surprised by the values he saw!

[Potential]: 189!

[Current Ability]: 144!

How is this possible?

Whether it is potential or current ability, Juan Mata is actually a lot lower than when he was at Real Madrid!

Originally...... In FM, a player's potential is not fixed!

Why?

There is only one possibility for Li Tongfan to think about it, and that is that the FM system will top up and change the potential evaluation of each player according to the actual performance of the player in reality! Juan Mata has been inactive in the past year, so the potential for evaluation after FM was upgraded to 2008 has also decreased!

Belch...... It seems that the system is really getting more and more humanized!

After being slightly surprised, Li Tongfan did not hesitate to consume two character points to restore Juan Mata to the level of [current ability] 180 a year ago! ――

Today's chapter is to pave the way for the goal frenzy that follows, because it is necessary to write Newcastle's transformation from weak to strong a little more reasonable, after all, the Magpies are not Real Madrid, and it is impossible to modify them slightly and add system deduction to be invincible!

The plot will progress very quickly!

In addition, next season's Magpies have a big change, and dear swordsmen can post their recommended players to the book review area!

Finally, two deputy moderators are recruited!

Enthusiastic book friends who need to have read the full text of the modifier and have been online for a long time!

Knife alone is too busy! I see a lot of essence left every week, and I feel sorry for the brothers!
