That night, the news that Mo Yang was selected into the three-person UEFA Player of the Year award list came back to China, and public opinion immediately aroused.
Mo Yang just fell off the hot search lists on major platforms, and immediately climbed to the top of the list.
"Mo Yang was selected into the three-man list of UEFA's best players!"
"Mo Yang may be the first Asian player to win the three major individual awards in world football!"
"Mo Yang! Will shine again in Europe! And even in the whole world!"
"..."
Domestic media covered it overwhelmingly, and foreign media were not idle either.
"He is fully capable of competing for the Ballon d'Or! China Yang's performance this natural year is excellent, and his performance in the Premier League and Champions League is dominant! Even in the World Cup, he is well-deserved as one of the best midfielders
One!》——French Football
Just when foreign media were rushing to report on it, "France Football" suddenly sent depth charges, which immediately caused the European foreign media to make a fuss.
After parting ways with FIFA, the right to host the European Ballon d'Or has returned to the hands of "France Football".
You must know that this year’s European Ballon d’Or shortlist will be announced in December.
Now that "France Football" has chosen to affirm Mo Yang at this time, does this mean anything?
Just when "France Football"'s move made people talk a lot, "The Times", which has always been kind and protective of Mo Yang, used a sensational headline to report on the big list announced by UEFA, and it was immediately transferred.
the attention of the European public.
"This may be the beginning of the end of the Melo era!" The Times!
After one stone stirred up a thousand waves, "The Times" published another long article, conducting a detailed analysis of the possibility of Modric, Mo Yang, and Ronaldo winning the award.
"This time the three UEFA best players are Yang, Cristiano Ronaldo, and Modric. We can analyze it from four levels!"
"First, the selection mechanism!"
"The selection of UEFA's best player does not require public opinion and fame like the two major awards of the European Ballon d'Or and World Footballer. The selection mechanism of UEFA's best player is very simple. It is usually from the Champions League winning team.
The players or core players with the best performance will win, and the selection will be based on performance!》
"For example, Messi, Barcelona has missed the Champions League final since winning the Champions League in 2014-15. In the following two years, Messi still performed superbly in La Liga, but he never made it to UEFA's three-man squad!
This year, it ranked sixth! 》
"Analyzing from the perspective of the selection mechanism, Yang has a high possibility of winning this award! Because Liverpool has become the third team in the history of the Premier League to win the Premier League championship, and it is inseparable from winning the sixth Champions League trophy in Liverpool's history.
Let’s unleash the phenomenal performance of his super core!》
"Second, personal data!"
"In this regard, 28 assists and 17 goals in the Yang League and 14 assists and 8 goals in the Champions League are enough to crush Modric, who is also a midfielder!"
"Although Cristiano Ronaldo won the honor of Europe's top scorer in the 17-18 season, he failed to help Real Madrid create three consecutive championships in team history!"
"Third, club results!"
"I think in the 17-18 season, no club in the world can be better than Liverpool. It won the league and the Champions League in the same season. Very few clubs in the Premier League can do it. But in such a cruel competitive environment like the Premier League, Liverpool
Did it!》
"The 17-18 season is a year in which Liverpool continues to create miracles and team history! If there is a best club award, it can only be Liverpool!"
"Fourth, national team results!"
"Yang has no advantage in this regard, especially compared to Modric, who led his team to the runner-up in this World Cup, Yang is at a disadvantage. But Yang is tied with Ronaldo because both sides were eliminated in the quarter-finals."
"But if you analyze it from the perspective of achievements, Yang is undoubtedly better than Modric. In this World Cup, the Chinese team with Yang once again entered the World Cup after 16 years and reached the knockout stage! Continuous breakthroughs in the national team
A historical record!》
"So, analyzing from these four levels, the winner of UEFA Player of the Year will be born between Yang and Modric!"
As soon as this report came out, it made countless fans think.
According to the Times' thinking, this seems to be the case.
In the World Cup group stage, the dark horse of the Chinese team first caused the champion France to suffer a little, then beat Denmark and Peru to the point where they couldn't hold their heads up, and finally fought back and forth with the runner-up in the quarter-finals, as if
It is indeed not one of those teams that make up the numbers.
What’s even more outrageous is that UEFA’s official INS even went to the Times report and liked it and left a smiley face, which immediately confused countless fans. What does this mean and who is it for?
Countless fans are itching to think that this award will not be announced until the UEFA Champions League group draw ceremony in Monaco on August 31.
"Yang, are you familiar with The Times?"
At Mo Yang's house, Pere, who was wearing pajamas, drank hot coffee and read the entire report with a contented face. Then he looked at Mo Yang across from him curiously and asked.
Perret had long noticed The Times's kind attitude towards Mo Yang.
Other media in England occasionally criticize Mo Yang, but The Times does not and never has. Even when Mo Yang was attacked and criticized, The Times often defended and counterattacked.
Mo Yang smiled and shook his head, saying, "I've never even seen their reporters!"
Hearing Mo Yang's words, Pere fell into thinking. Suddenly a figure flashed in his mind. Pere looked up at Mo Yang and said uncertainly: "Yang, do you think that old guy also has shares in The Times?
"
"Crash!"
After Pere finished speaking, Mo Yang felt a muffled thunder in his head. It was really possible. The old man was mysterious. Mo Yang always felt that Reed's mystery had only revealed a part of it.
The next day, Mo Yang arrived at Melwood training base early in the morning.
"Yang! Congratulations on being selected as the best player in UEFA!"
"Yang, the best player must be yours, otherwise I will report them for operating behind the scenes!"
"Positive!……"
After getting off the car and walking from the parking lot to the locker room, everyone who met Mo Yang smiled and congratulated Mo Yang.
Mo Yang kept smiling all the way, but when he walked into the dressing room, his face almost froze with laughter.
I came to the training ground alone and practiced for half an hour before Salah, Van Dijk and others arrived.
As soon as they saw Mo Yang, these guys flocked to him, and everyone sent their sincere blessings to Mo Yang.
Robertson got some cold light fireworks from somewhere, and he and Arnold set them off directly on the training ground, creating a scene and feeling like a victory celebration.
Looking at the smiles on the faces of his teammates around him, Mo Yang felt warm in his heart.
Not only did Liverpool gain huge profits this season, but the players also gained a lot.
For example, Alisson, although he missed the Champions League final, due to his outstanding performance in the group stage and knockout rounds, he was selected into the three-person candidate list for the best goalkeeper.
There is also Van Dijk, who was selected into the three-person candidate list for the best defender. Mo Yang feels that this award is probably for Van Dijk.
Salah, who is ranked fourth on the best player list, is also on the three-person candidate list for the best forward. As for whether he can beat Ronaldo to win the best forward, I don’t know!
And Klopp, the UEFA Men's Football Coach of the Year award will probably fall into his pocket.
Liverpool's performance this season has been so good that even Real Madrid and Barcelona can't stop it.
Salah behaved a little strangely today. Normally, he would like to cling to Mo Yang, but at this time, he was standing on the outside, smiling silently at the people having fun.
But don't get me wrong, he is not jealous of Mo Yang, of course, there is definitely a little bit of envy.
Salah did not expect that he broke the Premier League record and scored 34 goals last season, but failed to break into the top three, which made him a little disappointed.
