Nasri has been able to play normally, and Li Yanqing has also adjusted the lineup from the 4-2-3-1 high-level bus to the 4-1-2-3 offensive formation.

Burton is more familiar with this variant of the 4-3-3 lineup.

The difference from the previous one is that a defensive midfielder was removed, allowing Nasri to serve as the core of the midfield, with Quinn assisting.

Judging from his performance on the training ground in the past few days, Nasri has conquered the whole team.

Including Li Yanqing and Chris.

After all, he was once the core of a wealthy club. Even if he has not regained his form now, his level is still outstanding in the Championship.

"Quinn, watch how Nasri plays football and ask him for advice when you have nothing to do.

Li Yanqing hopes Quinn can learn as much as possible from Nasri. After all, the latter is already 30 years old and has the influence of negative words. It is hard to say how long he can maintain a high level.

Of course, it is also hard to say how long he can stay in Burton.

The future still belongs to Quinn.

August 25th, match day.

Burton Athletic played against Queens Park Rangers at home.

This time, there were finally more than just Li Yanqing and Chris on the coaching bench. Cheng Mengmeng successfully obtained a work permit and became a member of Burton's coaching staff.

During the day, she would follow the team and analyze opponent data and collect intelligence from other teams at night.

What made people unhappy was that the opponent's head coach Hasselbaink obviously did not take Burton seriously.

In a media interview before the game, he said shamelessly that this game would make Burton lose badly and take away three points from here.

After all, after three consecutive defeats, Burton's morale must be extremely low, while Queens Park Rangers had two wins and one draw before, and remained unbeaten in three games.

However, the facts almost broke his defense.

Only three minutes into the game, Jamie broke through and passed the ball to the middle. Nasri seized the opportunity and volleyed the ball into the air, opening the scoring for the team!

"gooooal! The ball goes in!"

"Only three minutes into the show!"

"Burton went against their norm and started to attack. This will be a very exciting game!"

The commentator was very excited. Scoring a goal early was actually nothing. What really aroused his interest was that Burton finally did not choose to defend.

A hearty offensive battle is of course more entertaining than a dull defense!

Regarding this, Li Yanqing was actually very helpless.

He really hoped to solve the problem by defending and counterattacking.

Unfortunately, the player configuration of the Burton team could not support him to do so. Neither defense nor quick counterattacks met his requirements.

This has been proven by the three consecutive defeats at the beginning.

The game continued. With Nasri on the field, the overall strength of the Burton team improved by several levels.

His skills and vision are really good.

As long as Quinn and Jamie on the same side of him can complete some small-scale cooperation with him, he will always find a way to break through the opponent's defense.

In the 20th minute, Nasri found an opportunity again and sent the ball into the opponent's penalty area with a straight pass.

But there were no Burton players nearby.

""Oh, Murphy is out of position!"

Li Yanqing sighed, he knew that this ball was not Nasri's problem.

It was a perfect empty space. If it was Manchester City striker Sergio Aguero, he would definitely be in that position.

But he couldn't ask Murphy and the others to suddenly have Premier League level capabilities, only Nasri could adapt to them.

Fortunately, Nasri himself soon discovered this.

In the 36th minute, he made another straight pass, crossing the opponent's entire defense line.

This time, he observed Murphy's position in advance and accurately sent the ball to the opponent's feet.

The ball and the person arrived, which made Murphy very comfortable. He didn't need to adjust and just raised his foot to shoot.

"goooooooal! 2-0!"

"Burton scored again!"

After scoring two goals in the first half, it was not easy for the opponent to catch up.

In the stands, Will, who had been holding back for a while, once again led the fans to do their signature move, squeezing beer.

The losing streak at the beginning did not make them lose trust in Li Yanqing, but they were waiting for the team to surprise them again.

They waited!

"How did you come up with the idea of signing him?"

Chris was extremely satisfied with Nasri's performance. No, it should be said that he was almost in awe of him.

He had already left his seat, and then he sat down on the grass.

"I can't believe it! We only spent 800,000 to rent a player of this level!"

"If he can continue this form, I'm afraid it won't be a problem for us to enter the Premier League!"

"Don't be too happy too soon." Li Yanqing poured a bucket of cold water on him.

"He only has the last six months left on his contract with Manchester City, and he hasn't promised us that he will transfer here for free."

"That depends on how you say it, Li, you are the head coach."

Chris didn't think there was anything wrong with it, Burton helped him, and it is common for players to give back to the club.

The biggest problem is probably the salary.

Currently, the top salary of Burton is Jamie, 500,000 pounds a year.

As for Nasri, it is now 2 million pounds a year, which is far beyond Burton's affordability.

How much beer does Robinson have to sell to prepare 2 million pounds?

The two chatted here, and on the court, the shock that Nasri brought to them was not over.

In the second half, the game was in the 70th minute.

Quinn's long shot from the outside was saved by the goalkeeper, and Nasri behind him suddenly broke into the penalty area and completed the supplementary shot.

Three to zero!

This score was maintained until the end of the game, and Nasri was elected the best player of the game.

The opponent's head coach Baink's face was completely black, and he even refused to shake hands with Li Yanqing.

"This is cheating! They must have some kind of deal!"

In the post-match interview, he seemed to have suffered a great injustice and angrily criticized the Burton team.

"The opponent is the main midfielder of a wealthy club! Why join a Championship team?"

"I ask the Football Association to investigate them......."

Li Yanqing looked at the head coach and laughed so hard that he could hardly straighten his back.

When Miss Maggie from the newspaper office handed the microphone to his lips, he pushed it away.

"Stop interviewing me, please let Mr. Baink tell more jokes......"

"I swear, this is the funniest joke I have heard this year!"

Everyone knows what happened to Nasri. His performance in Seville made the teams in the five major leagues basically give up on him.

Before, no team except Burton had invited him.

The main reason was that I didn't expect that this arrogant genius was really willing to join the Championship temporarily.

This is thanks to Mourinho. It was the information he provided that allowed Li Yanqing to deal with the opponent before other teams could react.

Mr. Baink, this kind of frustrated performance is really like a clown actor.

So much so that Li Yanqing didn't know how to respond to him.
