The Strongest Demon Front

"28 balls."

Lukaku looked at Chu Ge's goal count on the phone screen and shook his head.

This season has been his best.

Like Chu Ge, Lukaku also became famous at a young age.

When he was sixteen years old, he became the main striker of the Bundesliga powerhouse Anderlecht, and won the top scorer of the Bundesliga that season, as well as the Bundesliga champion.

He was identified as a promising supernova early on, and was recruited by Chelsea and trained as the successor of "Warcraft" Drogba.

These experiences are similar to those of Chu Ge.

It's just that Lukaku's later development was quite tortuous. He frequently moved to various clubs in his loan career, his performance was a bit sluggish, and he did not fulfill people's expectations of his potential. After joining Everton, Lukaku temporarily settled down and played better every year.

This season is Lukaku's fourth year at Everton, and this is also his best year since joining the Premier League.

After thirty-four league rounds, Lukaku has scored 24 goals.

Same number of goals as last season's top scorer Harry Kane.

And if it weren't for Kane's big four in this round, Lukaku would even lead Kane by four goals.

Lukaku admitted that after scoring so many goals, he can't help being a little bloated.

He even believes that this season he has the hope of competing for the league Golden Boot.

However.

This thought completely dissipated after the match between Chu Ge and Burnley.

hat trick!

28 balls!

In the case of two games less, Chu Ge further expanded his advantage in the scorer list. After this round of the game, the Chinese player led Lukaku and Harry Kane by as many as four goals!

"It's really worthy of being the top three players in the Golden Globe. It's really worthy of being a player who has been recognized as the successor of the world champion."

After seeing Chu Ge's goal, Lukaku was very envious and admired.

"He also became famous at a young age. He is much better than me, and his career is smoother."

"This life is like hanging out, it's really enviable."

He sighed.

With Chu Ge, Lukaku always has no way to have any emotions to compete.

He always seemed to be looking up.

...

"Leading by four goals! Chu has locked the golden boot?"

"The statistics show that the Manchester United captain is only half a step away from the Golden Boot!"

Kane looked at some of the latest newspapers and felt a little upset.

Especially the summary of the data emperor.

"According to the data of the Premier League since 2000, 28 league goals, enough in 00/01, 01/02, 02/0, 04/05, 05/06, 06/07, 08/09, 10/11, In the eleven seasons of 12/1, 14/15, and 15/16, he won the league's top scorer. In sixteen seasons, only five seasons of the league's top scorer scored more goals than Chu Ge scored 28. ball."

"It may only be a matter of time before the new king of Manchester United becomes the top scorer of the season. It seems that no one can pose a threat to him."

When Kane saw this, he crumpled up the newspaper and threw it into the toilet.

"These media are all bullshit. The previous data are just data. The top scorer has never been selected based on the data of previous seasons!"

"I will not give up!"

"I will work hard till the end!"

"Persistence is the most important thing, Harry, you can do it!"

Kane motivates himself.

He does not allow his failure.

From a certain point of view, this characteristic of him is somewhat similar to Luo.

There are some paranoia.

Luo's paranoia makes him not lose in the competition with Messi; and Kane's paranoia, will it also make the British star better?

...

Kane remains hopeful of being the top scorer of the season,

But not everyone is as motivated as he is.

Costa, at least, has given up.

Scoring 19 goals in 34 rounds, Costa's scoring statistics are already quite good. However, compared with Chu Ge, it is not enough.

Although he doesn't want to admit it, Diego Costa knows very well that his chances of winning the league's top scorer are very slim.

but……

"No matter how many goals you score, if you can't win the championship, isn't that useless?"

"The league championship is the most important award! The long season and one-year competition are all for the glory of the championship! Even if you take away the top scorer, the championship with the most gold content still belongs to us! We are the ultimate winners, haha!"

Costa's mood was not affected by Chu Ge's outstanding performance.

He was even a little proud.

"Next, you will meet Manchester City soon."

"Come on Manchester City! Get rid of them!"

That's why Costa is in a good mood.

...

Carrington.

In the immediate vicinity of Manchester United's training base, a cool bald man looked towards the next door.

"Pep, what are you thinking?" Domenech Torrent walked past Guardiola. He noticed that Guardiola was a little restless and asked curiously.

Domenech Torrent has known Guardiola for a long time.

As early as when Guardiola was still leading the Barcelona b team in the second league, Torrent was Guardiola's assistant. He always sat closest to Guardiola on the dugout, and Guardiola always consulted the 54-year-old Torrent before making any substitutions.

He is Guashuai's most reliable adjutant.

In Torrent's impression, he rarely sees Guardiola distracted when preparing for the game.

The words of the assistant made Guardiola quickly come back to his senses.

"It's okay. I just remembered some things before the season, and I was a little emotional." Guardiola waved his hand.

"Oh?" Torrent looked in the direction Guashuai was looking at before, and thought again.

He quickly guessed what Guardiola was thinking just now.

"The derby battle with Manchester United is coming soon. Don't you think of Chu again? To be honest, when you were very optimistic about him before the season and insisted that Begiristain fully introduce him, I was a little skeptical. I don't doubt his potential, I just doubt whether he is worth the transfer fee and whether he can bring enough immediate combat power. But... it turns out that you are right, Pep, and we are all wrong Already." Torrent patted Guardiola on the shoulder.

He admires Guardiola's vision.

Now everyone knows that Chu Ge is excellent, but a year ago, no one thought that the young man under Luo's halo could be so outstanding.

"But it's useless to say it now. He still hasn't come here after all." Guardiola sighed.

He was a little helpless.

To this day, when he thinks of the original situation, he always feels very regretful.

The better Chu Ge's performance, the more regretful he will be.

"If we had been more resolute at the beginning, if we had not scrupled so much at the beginning and directly paid liquidated damages, what would the situation be like now?" Gua Shuai shook his head.

It is not often that a player as amazingly talented as Chu Ge appears in the transfer market.

Once you have the opportunity, you should try your best to fight for it.

Otherwise, regret will become eternal pain.

"If Chu was with us, we would be the ones competing with Chelsea for the title now..."

"I really didn't expect that he alone could bring Manchester United to where it is today." When it came to this topic, Torrent couldn't help but sigh.

Manchester United's achievements today are certainly not due to Chu Ge alone.

However, Chu Ge's contribution is undoubtedly the most obvious.

As the coach of Manchester City, Torrent is well aware of the strength of this "neighbor".

If it weren't for Chu Ge, he really didn't believe that Manchester United could have such a high league ranking.

"He is like Leo, one person can raise the upper limit of a team. And now he is not the best. Wait for him to grow up, wait for him to have stronger teammates and a more suitable offense system, he will be even better."

"However, it is meaningless to say these things now. What we should consider now is not what will happen if he is our player, but what we should do in the game the day after tomorrow to limit him and win the derby. .”

Guardiola looked next door again.

His eyes were deep.
