August 31st, the first game of the fourth round of the Premier League.

Manchester United travel to Southampton to play at St Mary's Stadium.

Southampton is no stranger to Chinese fans either.

Many fans jokingly call him fellow player because he often sells players to Liverpool.

Such as Mane, such as Van Dijk.

But these are not within the scope of Lin Kedi's consideration.

Lin Kedi really felt strange after seeing Southampton's formation before the game.

Because Southampton's formation today is a 4222.

A formation that draws in and has no wide sides.

Double defensive midfielders, double attacking midfielders and double center forwards.

What kind of play is this? Have you completely given up on the wing?

Or let two full-backs come in?

Lin Kedi was puzzled.

But once the game started, Lin Kedi put all these thoughts behind him.

During the game, Southampton's strange formation did not bring them any good results.

In the 17th minute, Lin Kedi moved to the left and exchanged positions with Rashford. He received a pass from Luke Shaw and dribbled the ball on Southampton's empty wing. After cutting inside, he faced Southampton.

The right back, Cedric, knocked the Portuguese to the ground with an easy swing. Then Link reached the left corner of the penalty area and directly took a shot.

These are now some of Lin Kedi's best shooting methods.

It has an angle and the ball speed is slower, which is very suitable for shooting from both sides. It is very reasonable to shake away the defensive player and shoot directly into the far corner.

And this shot directly broke Southampton's goal.

1 to 0.

Southampton's defense basically fell apart after being beaten like this.

In the 27th minute, Lin Ke received the ball from the frontcourt and passed it to Mata on the right.

Mata took the ball and passed it long into the penalty area. Rashford from the left broke into the penalty area and scored with a header.

2 to 0.

In the 69th minute of the second half, Lin Kedi received another long pass from the backcourt. He stopped his chest, turned around, widened the angle, and at the top of the arc in the penalty area, with three defensive players in front of him, he shot directly.

3 to 0.

Lin Keen scored twice.

This is Link's 10th goal in 4 games.

He is also the player who scored 10 goals in the shortest time in the history of the Premier League.

Lin Kedi made another history.

After creating this history, Lin Kedi was replaced by Ten Hag.

Because after this game, it will be the national team game day.

Lin Kedi wanted to tell Ten Hahe that actually I only had one game on the national team match day.

Unlike most European or South American countries.

The Asian national teams have only arranged one official game during the national team competition day in September.

Therefore, the Chinese national team also specially arranged a friendly match.

match against Thailand.

Lippi told Lin Kedi that you don't need to participate in this game.

Therefore, Lin Kedi will fly directly to the Maldives on September 7 to participate in the 2022 World Cup Asian Qualifiers.

The period before this was naturally treated as a holiday.

But he said it was a holiday, so Ali came directly.

"Ali, when I see you now, I know you have another event to attend, right?"

"Yes, you still can't refuse this event."

"Can't refuse? What kind of activity?"

“Signing Ceremony of Armani Global Ambassador.”

"Armani? Do we endorse it?"

"The negotiation was completed last week. They decided to sign you to become Armani's first global ambassador. The endorsement fee is also the highest in Armani's history. 30 million euros for 2 years."

"That's 15 million euros a year. Is this the highest in history?"

"Uh-Lin, you have a big appetite now!"

"That's right, this is already a lot. Okay, where is the signing ceremony?"

"Global, in London. Three days from now."

"September 4th?"

"Yes, there will be a Premier League Hall of Fame event in London on September 3. The Premier League has also invited you."

"The Premier League Hall of Fame? It has nothing to do with me."

"The Premier League Hall of Fame has not officially started yet. Their first list will be announced in June next year. But before that, they have made a list of 100 people, including a Premier League celebrity list. This event is the Premier League Hall of Fame.

Celebrity list of Asian players. So——"

“Which Chinese celebrity did they invite?”

"Sun Jihai."

"That's okay, I'll go."

"But I have a question. I want to say it in advance. Although this is an official invitation from the Premier League, I think this question is a bit big, so I still have some reservations."

"Question? Reservation? What?" Lin Kedi was a little confused.

"Sun Jihai is a famous star of Manchester City. He is an officially certified star of Manchester City. We are at Manchester United now - those famous players may-"

"I know, you're talking about Gary Neville and Schmeichel, right? In fact, it should be okay, Sun Jihai has retired, and the reason why I was invited must be because Sun Jihai and I are both Chinese.

In fact, I really don’t know if you don’t tell me this, but if I know about it, I will really go. Because before me, the most successful Chinese player in Europe was Sun Jihai. He and I have not yet

Got it, I’m going!”

"Okay then. I will pay attention to public opinion, but if you want to post photos and social media, try not to mention Manchester City."

"Don't worry, I'm not stupid."

——

So, on September 3, in a press room in London.

Premier League Hall of Fame event.

Lin Kedi had already arrived at the scene, and he met Sun Jihai in the background.

He took the initiative to step forward.

Sun Jihai was chatting with a white man at this time.

Sun Jihai was a little surprised to see Lin Kedi.

"Brother Jihai!"

"Forest--"

"Just ask me to defeat the enemy."

"Ken the enemy, you are really here."

"Of course, I heard my agent say that if you are here, then I will definitely come."

"Defeat the enemy, you are really the pride of all us Chinese football people. Those goals I saw of yours are really beautiful. I have watched your highlights many times."

"Brother Jihai, please stop praising me."

"How can this be a compliment? This is serious. You don't know that under your influence, many Chinese Super League players have intended to study abroad. For example, Zhang Yuning, I heard that he was influenced by you.

Went to Heerenveen.”

"Yes, Brother Zhang asked me about studying abroad. I support him in studying abroad. But including him, there are only three players who have studied abroad."

"There will be more soon—"

"Really? I'm not in the country and I don't know anything about the Chinese Super League——"

"You know about Zhu Chenjie and Jiang Shenglong, right?"

"Shanghai's pair of central defenders come from Genbao Base, I know."

"One of them has been spotted by a French second team, and the other has been spotted by a Bundesliga second team. They are already looking to buy them."

"This is a good thing. Going to the secondary league to train is very effective!"

"I have the same opinion as you. They are both young. If they go out at this age, they can improve a lot just by training, not to mention that in the secondary league, they will have certain opportunities to play. These two are already the best central defenders in the country.

Outstanding."
