Starting from playing as a defensive midfielder for Real Madrid

As Li Ang was successfully elected as the 2015 FIFA Ballon d'Or, the British media who had previously helped him build momentum in the public opinion field also ushered in a bumper sales harvest!

The whole of England, the whole of Europe, and even the whole world of public opinion are discussing Leon!

The risky transfer that caused a sensation in world football two and a half seasons ago, looking back at this moment, was an extremely correct decision by Li Ang.

Of course, as Li Ang successfully won the Ballon d'Or, many people in the Chinese Football Association were quietly transferred from their original positions, or even directly hidden.

Countless Chinese fans strongly demand that the relevant personnel who forced Li Ang to leave the national brand come out and apologize!

They are also extremely eager for Li Ang to return to the national team after the Football Association bows his head and admits his mistake.

One Li Ang may not be able to save the overall downward trend of Chinese football.

But at least in the past few years at the peak of Li Ang's career, Chinese fans can still have some hope for domestic football!

Unfortunately, facing such huge pressure from public opinion, the Football Association still chose to be a coward.

People who want to do practical things have no say in the Football Association. Those who do have a say are busy making money and covering up their past mistakes. How can they care about the complaints from fans outside the system?

Li Ang knew about the uproar in the country calling for him to return to serve in the country.

After all, he is also an intense surfer.

But to be honest, he has no expectations or illusions about the Football Association at all.

He remembered that the Football Association ushered in a wave of investigations in the following years. As a result, not only the top leaders and head coaches of the Football Association were involved, but also a large number of "talents" were implicated.

On the contrary, Director Gao Hongbo, who has been criticized by fans, stayed on his own.

In this case, Li Ang really chose to take the initiative to return to the national team after his head was kicked by a donkey.

Let him go in and watch his obviously stronger national teammates sit on the bench. Are some of the first starting players more or less nepotistic? !

Sorry, he really can't do it!

So he just watched with a cold eye. After seeing that the Football Association was cowardly and did not respond or issue any announcement, he completely forgot about the matter.

It just so happened that the 21st round of the Premier League was coming one after another. On the second night after Li Ang won the Ballon d'Or, Chelsea faced the challenge of Everton at home.

Before the game, Li Ang faced more than 30,000 Chelsea fans at home and showed off the first Ballon d'Or trophy of his career.

At this moment, he had a warm smile on his face and seemed to be in a very good mood, but after the display, his eyes suddenly burned with a burning desire to fight!

A good mood?

Those are just appearances.

He is very angry now and needs a channel to vent!

Everton was unlucky to run into a sulking Li Ang.

When the game officially started, Everton still wanted to slowly test today's offensive and defensive intensity with Chelsea.

As a result, Li Ang came up with a fierce tackle!

Barkley, who was still advancing with the ball just now, fell to the ground decisively, but the referee had no intention of calling a foul.

Li Ang directly took the ball and pushed it back into Everton's half. Everton's veteran midfielder Barry signaled his teammate Besic not to rush forward recklessly, and quickly defended with him first!

But in the small space left by the two people's retreat, Li Ang seized the opportunity and shot directly within his own range!

Everton's old goalkeeper Howard didn't dare to be careless. Facing Li Ang's heavy long-range shot, he made fists with both hands and hit the ball low!

After landing, Howard kept roaring and signaling to his defensive teammates not to give Li Ang a chance to take a long shot so easily!

And Li Ang saw that the ball was finally hit by Howard, and he had nothing to regret. Instead, he actively signaled his teammates to join him in the Everton penalty area!

Commentators from various countries all praised Li Ang's enthusiasm for the game.

But Li Ang, who is in good condition and extremely aggressive in the game, is a complete disaster for the Everton team!

He grabbed another corner kick opportunity, but in the end, Li Ang headed the ball higher than the crossbar and continued to cheer for the Chelsea fans at home!

He was signaling his fans to give the team more cheers and support.

Everton's head coach Martinez frowned as he watched from the sidelines, but when he thought that Li Ang had just won the Ballon d'Or trophy yesterday, he was relieved again.

Without much hesitation, Martinez directly made tactical adjustments and signaled his disciples on the court to shrink their formation first.

If you can control the ball, control it first. If you can't control the ball, don't give Chelsea too much space to attack forward.

At first glance, there is nothing wrong with Martinez's tactical adjustment, but in fact, such an adjustment completely exposed the defensive shortcomings of Everton's players.

Martinez's defensive skills have never been outstanding. Since last season, Everton has directly become a mid-to-lower Premier League team due to conceding too many goals.

Everton has still not been able to improve its poor defense this season. The central defender line composed of Jagielka and Stones has conceded 29 goals in 20 rounds!

This makes Everton's defensive efficiency only rank sixth from the bottom in the Premier League, but their goals scored rank fifth in the Premier League, so it is very interesting to watch Everton's game.

The key factor that often determines whether they can win a game is whether they score goals faster or concede goals faster.

So at this moment when Martinez decided to temporarily put down the team's offense and stabilize the defense first, they were destined to be passive on the court.

Li Ang watched the tactical adjustments made by Everton without any panic. He still stared at the midfield area on Barkley's side to make a fuss.

Even if Everton's entire team returns to defend, Barkley will not settle down.

After all, Li Ang has taught Barkley a lesson and watched him grow up. He still has this kind of confidence in his vision!

Sure enough, less than 5 minutes after Martinez finished making tactical adjustments, Barkley was ready to intervene with the ball again!

Li Ang saw the right opportunity and made another accurate tackle. Barkley also fell down very cleanly, but the referee still had no intention of calling a foul.

After Cross won the ball, he decisively sent a long diagonal pass from the midfield.

Hazard, who was waiting for the opportunity, moved in at high speed along the sideline. After unloading the ball, he faced the marking of Everton right back Oviedo. With only a small change in rhythm, he directly dunked past Ovie who was taking the shot. What a successful incision!

After briefly observing the movements of the enemy and our players in Everton's penalty area, Hazard decisively sent a pass!

This pass seemed to be passed and shot, making it difficult for Everton's defenders in the penalty area to handle.

At the critical moment, Suarez moved forward and then shook his head and slightly touched the ball, changing the course of football!

But Howard was like Buffon possessing him at this moment, forcibly poking the football away from the goal with his fingertips at the critical moment!

The football saved by Howard just drifted towards Salah's path, but Jagielka also blocked the defensive position at this time and did not give Salah a good angle for a follow-up shot.

In the blink of an eye, Salah caught a glimpse of a blue figure inserted into the center of Everton's penalty area!

He didn't even have time to confirm which teammate was forward, so he knocked the ball back decisively!

At this moment, Martinez, who was standing on the sidelines and anxiously watching the development of the situation in his own penalty area, was also shocked!

"Block his shot!"

He was roaring and shouting!

Stones, a talented defender in the Everton penalty area, also decisively ran towards Li Ang at this moment!

But Li Ang didn't give him any time to intercept. Li Ang directly chose to meet the ball and shoot without adjusting!

If he chose to shoot so close to the goal, he either had no choice or he was extremely confident in his footwork.

Li Ang obviously belongs to the latter. Howard has performed well enough today, but in the face of such a close-range blast, he can only do nothing!

The football crossed the goal line without any suspense and hit the Everton net!

The next moment, Li Ang put his hands behind his ears and rushed passionately to the corner flag area to listen to the cheers of the home fans!

The anger in his heart temporarily disappeared with the goal, but one goal was not enough!

After celebrating with his teammates, Li Ang was still encouraging other Chelsea starting players to keep up their efforts on the way back to the half-time!

Mourinho stood on the sidelines and watched Li Ang work so hard, but he didn't want to dampen his enthusiasm, so he simply made tactical adjustments to let the Chelsea team continue to press forward!

So Everton, who conceded the first goal before 10 minutes of the first half, was suppressed by Chelsea and was unable to fight back.

At this time, Martinez understood that he had to take the initiative to attack in order to survive, but it was too late, and his team was completely unable to organize a decent counterattack.

On the defensive end, Stones' immaturity has become a key point for Chelsea's forward group to take advantage of!

It is not wrong to say that Stones is a genius. This good friend of Maguire since childhood has unlimited potential for future development.

But even if he is a talented player, he still has a growth process to adapt to the top league.

There is no big problem in letting the current Stones and Jagielka partner to play in the middle and lower reaches of the Premier League.

But once he encounters top teams like Chelsea and Manchester City, his inexperienced defensive shortcomings will be infinitely magnified.

In the 24th minute of the first half, Suarez expertly leaned on Stones and scored when he was grabbing a point!

In the 36th minute, Salah cut in from the right and passed two Everton defenders, Baynes and Stones, and scored!

Taking a three-goal lead at half-time, Chelsea could be said to have simply squandered the game!

But after the second half of the game started, Chelsea still showed no sign of stopping.

Li Ang, who felt hot today, took the lead in scoring from a long shot in the 61st minute of the second half. In the 69th minute, Li Ang passed the ball and assisted Suarez to score twice!

It wasn't until the five-goal victory that Li Ang felt comfortable and clear all over and no longer encouraged his teammates to continue to put pressure on Everton.

At this moment, Stones, who was being taught a lesson by Chelsea's offensive players, had already been knocked unconscious.

Not to mention Martinez, even Mourinho felt a little pity for this young guy.

So in the 73rd minute of the second half, Mourinho directly replaced Liang, Suarez and Hazard in one go.

This substitution adjustment made the Everton fans who were crying without tears breathe a sigh of relief.

The demoralized Everton players did not launch a final offensive, and the final score of the game was fixed at 5-0!

Li Ang's performance in his first game after winning the Ballon d'Or was extremely impressive, and sports media from various European countries also praised Li Ang.

But for Manchester United, which will face Chelsea in the next round of the league, Li Ang's explosive performance is a reminder.

After all, Manchester United's recent performance has been very inconsistent. They have lost two and drawn one in the past three rounds of the Premier League. The losing teams were Stoke City and Swansea.

Only the 3-3 draw with Newcastle could be considered soul-stirring, but it also failed to win the game.

The poor performance in the past three league rounds has also caused Manchester United to drop from sixth to seventh in the Premier League.

It now seems that Manchester United's massive spending on signings last summer and Van Gaal's unwavering promise to return to the championship have become a joke within the Premier League.

When the top management of Manchester United did not invest money, Van Gaal led the team to fight for the sixth place. Now that the top management of Manchester United invested money, Van Gaal led the team to fight for the top six!

The angry and embarrassed Manchester United fans scolded the top management of Manchester United for being unprofessional, and at the same time blasted Van Gaal for taking money and not doing anything!

You bought all the players you should buy, including the 19-year-old Anthony Martial, who was priced at 36 million pounds by the club's top management. Now the team still can't produce results. If you don't blame you, who should you blame? !

As an insider, Van Gaal is actually qualified to defend himself, but Manchester United fans did not buy it at all. They believed that he was speaking harshly and continued to ridicule his rigid and ugly tactics.

In this case, Van Gaal, who led his team to face Chelsea, was cruel and directly set up a 4231 main offensive formation at Stamford Bridge!

Lukaku, Martial, Rooney and Lingard all started!

The late Carrick is responsible for organizing the team, and Fellaini is responsible for most of the interception tasks!

Such a midfield and frontcourt arrangement is completely top-heavy, and playing against Chelsea at Stamford Bridge?

Mourinho didn't know what Van Gaal was thinking, but facing a Manchester United team that was willing to take the initiative, he wanted it!

Chelsea fought against Manchester United without any worries, and the final score of 4-1 disgraced the Manchester United generals!

However, in the post-match interview session, Li Ang still said a few words for Van Gaal:

"Manchester United's main problem now is obviously not the coaching staff and players. In addition to finding this main problem and improving it, I suggest that Manchester United fans first lower their expectations and mental attitude towards the team's performance.

Things are different now, and Manchester United may have to take the initiative to adapt to the days of playing in the Europa League for a long time..."
