"My God, it's like a divine intervention! Super Bear! The Great Sage is still the Great Sage."
"Bale's two goals in the second half directly helped the team secure the victory, and his contribution is indispensable. With this, Real Madrid will once again win the Champions League trophy."
"They are the undisputed winners of the Champions League."
At this moment, when fans around the world saw Real Madrid win the Champions League trophy once again, they couldn't help but marvel at how Real Madrid truly was the biggest winner of the Champions League.
Although they didn't achieve much in the league, this one Champions League title alone is enough for them to prove their strength.
Although Ronaldo unfortunately did not score in this match, his tactical importance is undeniable. Without his presence to draw defenders away from the defense, Bale would not have been able to score so easily.
Watching the opposing team lift the Champions League trophy, Lei Ming felt happy for them but also a little envious.
The Champions League! They'll be participating next year. I wonder if they can still achieve results with this squad. And what kind of transfer plans will the manager make during this break?
During this period, the professor made it clear to the club and all the players that next season would be his last year as coach, and he would be satisfied regardless of success or failure.
His only goal is to lead everyone to the Champions League trophy.
Lei Ming is actually quite satisfied with this season, not only winning the championship but also receiving various subsidies and bonuses. However, the only drawback is that he still cannot keep a clean sheet throughout the entire season. He knows very well that to achieve this, he must combine the defensive strength of the entire backline. He and Professor Hope can bring in a few outstanding defensive players.
On this point, Wenger also listened to Reming's advice, saying that he would definitely make the other party satisfied.
In fact, it's not just Lei Ming who's dissatisfied with the current defensive players; even Wenger himself isn't very happy with them.
Although they have performed very well this season, their success is largely due to Lei Ming's command. Being too dominant in this aspect is not a good thing.
An excellent defensive player must be someone with independent thinking and observation skills. If he is further supported by Lei Ming, he will be even more formidable.
He was originally very satisfied with Southampton's Van Dijk, but unfortunately Liverpool snatched him away and offered a transfer fee of £75 million, which immediately made him give up the idea of competing for him.
With that money, he might as well find some young, promising players. I believe that under Lei Ming's guidance, they will grow up quickly.
Wenger also set his sights on Militao, who was still in the Portuguese league, and Alphonso Davies, who was in the MLS. At the same time, he also discovered that there was a very promising player in his reserve team, who was actually Saliba, who was on loan.
Wenger has gradually come up with some ideas for the defense next season, but it will take some time before he can bring all of them to the Emirates Stadium.
......
"Hey bro, you're finally here! I was worried you weren't coming!"
The next day, when Lei Ming arrived at the national team alone in his private car, Bernardo Silva was already waiting for him outside. As soon as he arrived, the guy slammed two hammer blows into Lei Ming's pectoral muscles, making a solid impact sound.
Lei Ming feigned weakness, pretending to be seriously injured, and said, "Damn it, even though I stole your fig leaf, it doesn't have to be like this, Bernardo."
"Ha, you're one to talk. Just because we have no cover-up, we've lost more than half of our vacation time. It's tragic. We'll probably have to go back to training camp after the World Cup."
"That's really tragic!"
Hearing B. Sid say that, Lei Ming showed a sympathetic look, but little did he know that he was the one who started all of this, for which he received a big eye roll from B. Sid.
"Alright, alright, stop standing here and come inside with me. Everyone and the head coach have been waiting for you for a long time. This time, I'm counting on you to lead us to the World Cup. It's a promise, you can't hold back on your methods from Arsenal, you have to bring them out 100%."
Although he failed to win any major league titles, Bernardo Silva felt very secure with Remy by his side during the World Cup, and he even gave Remy a good stern warning.
Lei Ming helplessly spread his hands: "I'll do my best, but you know, sometimes the tricks that work in the club may not work in the national team. This is my first time participating in the national team, so I advise you not to have too high expectations of me."
In national competitions, Lei Ming is well aware that the relationships between players are quite complex and not as tacit as those in clubs. After all, they are all the best players in their respective clubs, and it is common for no one to be willing to concede to anyone else. Even Cristiano Ronaldo, who is recognized as the senior player in the team, has his detractors, let alone him, a newcomer.
Bernardo Silva said, "You don't need to worry about that. You just need to do your job. I believe they all know what's important when it comes to matters of principle. Ronaldo, Moutinho, and I all have very high expectations for you. We'll leave the defense to you and the attack to us. I believe our level this team is enough to compete with Spain."
Portugal's biggest problem has always been its defense. Even with a large number of excellent midfielders and forwards and a superstar like Cristiano Ronaldo, it's all for naught without a strong defense.
Soon, under Bernardo Silva's guidance, Lei Ming also met his teammates and head coach Santos from the national team.
He remembered that when he first arrived in Monaco, the old man was reluctant to accept him. But after so much effort, he finally won him over with his abilities and began to receive praise for his performance.
Santos was delighted by Lei Ming's arrival, laughing as he stepped forward and put his arm around Lei Ming's shoulder, saying, "Lei, you've finally arrived! I've been looking forward to seeing you for so long!"
Without his previous experience, Lei Ming would have been completely fooled by the old man's enthusiastic attitude, so he actually had some reservations about him.
"Mr. Santos, you're too kind. It's an honor to be part of the national team. I'm happy to contribute, whether as a starter or a substitute."
Since we're here, it's best to adopt a humble attitude; tactically speaking, this is a strategy of first suppressing and then elevating.
Seeing Lei Ming's humility, Santos's opinion of Lei Ming changed considerably.
His teammates greeted the Arsenal quadruple champion in a friendly manner. Although it's unclear what they were really thinking, the atmosphere seemed satisfactory on the surface.
