After returning home after a whole day of parade, Zhao Yaning was very surprised to find that he had received a call from an unfamiliar number.

"Hello, I'm Gerrard." The person on the other side had some very strong accents in English, which was a bit like Scottish. Later Zhao Yaning realized that it was a typical Liverpool accent. "Stephen Gerrard, I think you should have heard of me, I'm from the Liverpool team."

"Of course I've heard of you. May I ask, what's wrong with you?" Zhao Yaning was also a little surprised that Gerald would call him.

Liverpool is his new boss, but he has always contacted him because, even if he contacted him, he should be the team's head coach or the team's captain. Now Liverpool's coach is Hollier and the captain is Irving, how do you contact him instead of the deputy captain?

"Hello, first of all, congratulations on winning the Ligue 1 championship and reaching the Champions League final." Gerrard's words sounded sincere, with a little admiration, a little admiration in his tone, and seemed a little nervous, "As your future teammate, I think it is necessary to congratulate you."

"Yeah, OK, thank you." Zhao Yaning agreed.

"Then, I want to say welcome to Liverpool," Gerrard continued, "and that's right, if you have anything to do when you arrive in Liverpool, I can help you."

"Thank you." Zhao Yaning said perfunctorily. Gerald on the other end of the phone heard his perfunctoryness and explained, "We have some chaos in this season... Michael's transfer has not been finalized yet, and Mr. Hollier is also preparing to resign. It was supposed to be the coach or captain who contacted you, but now, I have to come."

Although this is simple, it contains two information.

The first one is naturally that Hollier has decided to resign. Zhao Yaning's transfer matters have always been handled by Hollier. Zhao Yaning has always thought that he went to the Premier League and played with Hollier. However, at this moment, he suddenly told him that Hollier resigned, which inevitably made him feel a little confused.

And the second message is that it seems that Irving is really not going to stay in Liverpool anymore...

Zhao Yaning has heard people mention Irving. He was an extremely smart person. Not only was he high in football, but he also had high IQ and EQ. Coupled with his handsome face and highlights from several major competitions, his name as a golden boy has always been very loud.

He has his own Irving promotion company, which focuses on his image promotion and also focuses on the creation of relationships with the media. It is precisely because of his smart enough that he was able to top the Golden Globe Awards with a goal against Argentina in 1998. It is precisely because of his smartness that he was able to make the 2001 Golden Globe Awards selection lose to him because of a moral stain and the failure of the European Super Cup.

It is this kind of cleverness that has made Liverpool’s image over the years transform from a “team built around Irving” to a “team that Irving drags forward”.

The former is for everyone who sacrifices for him alone, and the latter is for everyone. The media never mentions that in order to make him develop smoothly, Liverpool even drove away Robbie Fowler. They will only mention that this team is Irving's alone team. Without Irving, they are nothing - although no one has seen what Liverpool looks like without Irving, everyone thinks so.

These words are usually said when everyone chats in private. When Morrow said these things, he was quite unfair about Raul. After all, Raul really sacrificed a lot for Real Madrid, but he missed the Golden Globes. Morientes is Raul's close friend, so of course he wouldn't say good things about Irving. In fact, Raul is not stupid either, but when doing things, he is always not as decisive as Irving. He also does a lot of publicity, but he can't play as smooth as Irving. In Morientes's view, this is the only reason why Raul lost to Irving in the Golden Globes.

In the past two years, Liverpool has not changed much, and Irving's mind is no longer on Liverpool. It is rumored that he is going to Real Madrid and becoming a new member of the Galaxy Battleship. However, this has never been accurate. Firstly, Liverpool was originally a powerful figure in Europe. Although he was in a down-and-out, he would not be poached by Real Madrid, especially the captain who was from his own youth training, and it was impossible to sell it for money. Secondly, it is because Real Madrid has enough forwards and there is no need to buy strikers. Irving is going to be his substitute or Raul?

But as Irving never renewed his contract, it seems that he is really ready to leave.

"I don't know much about what help you need. To be honest, I didn't try to help my teammates. My deputy captain was not very dedicated before... Michael is very good at handling these things. For us, only Riser is from Monaco. He should have some experience living in Liverpool. If you need it, I'll ask him for help."

"Then I will thank you any more."

After a few greetings, Zhao Yaning put down the phone. He understood what Gerald meant. This phone call was just Gerald wanted to determine what kind of person his future teammate would be, a person who is easy to get along with, a proud person, or an irritable person. Zhao Yaning's transfer value broke Liverpool's record. Liverpool really wanted to use Zhao Yaning as the main force, so Gerald naturally had to know Zhao Yaning's temper and personality.

But this conversation was quite pleasant. Zhao Yaning had a good temper, and he wouldn't be a bad temper when he heard Gerald's tone on the other end of the phone.

After all, Zhao Yaning’s understanding of Gerald is not as good as Irving. After all, Gerald has been too low-key, far less prominent than Irving. He just knows that Gerald seems to be a very outstanding player. Since his debut, he has been known as the new generation of Premier League midfielder who is comparable to Vieira and Keane. This evaluation is naturally quite high. And a person with such a high evaluation can still keep a low profile, which also makes Zhao Yaning feel that this person should not be too difficult to get along with.

Liverpool shouldn't have a bad living environment, right?

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

"I've called." After putting down the phone, Gerald turned his head and said to the people around him, "It sounds like a good temper. It doesn't look like a slippery or a bad temper. It shouldn't be too difficult to get along with."

"It's hard to say. He led the team to the Champions League final at the age of 20. This kid's talent is also at the level of genius. The genius' temper is a bit weird, but it's not weird like Michael, and it's even more disgusting." The people around him shook their heads, "Stephen, you're too easy to trust others, it's not good. You still think Michael is a good person, and you know how accurate the good person you talk about is."

"Jamie, don't say that. Michael is the Golden Globe winner after all. His pursuit is different from ours, and it is understandable..."

"He is from Liverpool!" The people around him became angry, "You, me, we are both Liverpool's youth training! Born in Liverpool, grew up in Liverpool, died in Liverpool! G14 youth training, captain, Golden Globe winner left the team before he played! Is there such a cowardly Golden Globe winner? Which giant family will do such a thing!"

"He is an Everton fan..."

"So too! My whole family is! But so what? I'm playing football for Liverpool for a day, and I can't be scattered!"

"Jamie, things have happened, stop complaining." Gerald looked at him and sighed. "I thought, Gerald, Carragher, Irving, these names could be the memory of Anfield, but now..."

"Fans will remember us." Carragher spoke, "Those who have left will naturally be thrown into the trash can by fans."

Gerald shook his head, he was powerless to refute anything. The team captain Irving was so determined to leave, and he was not allowed to go. As Liverpool's youth training background, he colluded with Real Madrid to help Real Madrid lower the price and force Liverpool to sell him at a low price. This approach is really shameless.

Yes, he can have thousands of reasons, saying that he won't win the championship at Liverpool, and he can't see the future at Liverpool, and influenced the Golden Ball winner to make great achievements in Liverpool - these reasons are reasonable. However, as a professional player, he refused to renew his contract and contacted other clubs, and he bit himself to death except for a club not to go to and help the other party squeeze his own club. If anyone puts such a thing, it is inevitable that anyone will have an unprofessional evaluation. What's more, Irving is the captain of the team and is from the team's youth training. This approach, let alone a giant team like Liverpool, even if it's an ordinary team, the captain and other teams will be considered to be unscrupulous.

However, there is no problem for Irving to do this. He is a smart person, and he is not very capable of attracting the media and building momentum for himself. With his eloquence and mind, it is not too difficult to say that this matter is a matter of Liverpool's sorry for him.

"We can play in the Champions League next season." Gerrard felt a little painful when he thought of this question. "What's wrong with staying? He is also a Golden Melody Award winner, don't he want to lead the team to win the championship as a core? He stayed to win the Champions League and League championships at Liverpool, and his achievements were obviously different from winning the Champions League and League championships at Real Madrid."

"The difficulty is also different. Not everyone has the courage to play hard mode." Carragher replied, "Some people are born to be unsuccessful."

"Don't say that..." Gerald scratched his head, "And, speaking of it, are you interested in going to Germany with me? I'm going to see the Champions League final and see what our new teammates look like."

"Okay, I'll go with you." Carragher said, "But don't expect too much to him. In my opinion, he just wants to use Liverpool as his springboard, so you'd better not expect too much to him."

"Jamie, we have to trust our teammates to play well." Gerald shook his head, "Let's not say such things in the future? Our team does not have good players, outstanding strength, and excellent superstars, but in the end we can't throw it away."

"Now are you thinking about unity?" Carragher laughed, "Have you regarded yourself as the captain?"

"I'm already right, no matter whether I'm taking it or not." Gerald turned his head, "Jamie, I won't do it like Michael, so be obedient to the captain's words, okay?"
