Near noon, Yang Yang's private plane arrived at Liverpool John Lennon Airport.
At this time, a lot of media reporters and fans had already gathered in the airport, but Yang Yang did not meet them, but took the Liverpool car directly from the special passage to Anfield Stadium.
Although it is not a game day, it is also a working day, but Anfield Stadium still gathers nearly 10,000 Liverpool fans.
This not only greatly exceeded Yang Yang's expectations, but even Liverpool General Manager Rick Parry, who was in charge of organizing the celebration, was surprised. They had originally guessed that there were at most two or three thousand people.
Unexpectedly, Liverpool fans will be so enthusiastic.
The fans who poured into Anfield successively blocked the surrounding roads. It looked like they were going to hold a game at Anfield at noon. When they saw the Liverpool reception car passing, they all cried out Yang Yang ’s name. Some fans even chased behind the car.
Sitting in the back row of the car, Yang Yang felt the enthusiasm of the fans around him and his love for him. He was really flattered.
As a player, he always feels that he has just done his part, but whether in Ajax or Liverpool, he has been respected and loved by fans, which makes him even more afraid to slack off.
"See? No, many people outside have put on your jersey No. 11." Laiola, sitting in the front passenger seat, turned his head and pointed at the fan outside the car window, smiling at Yang Yang. Road.
After Yang Yang listened and looked closely, it really was.
"I heard that in recent days, Liverpool's local jerseys have been sold out. Adidas temporarily transferred a batch of goods and was immediately sold out. Many fans are rushing to buy jerseys, and they must ask you to be hot. The number and name of this is also a memorial to them. "
Speaking of which, Laiola smiled slightly: "In front of the fan store in Anfield, there is not even a jersey, which makes many fans go to the club's fan service department to complain"
Yang Yang couldn't help smiling, and he didn't know what to say about the situation.
"The last time a player won the Golden Globe in Liverpool, it was in 2001. The arrogant Michael Owen won the European Golden Globe by virtue of the multiple cup championships that year, but Liverpool did not host this A sensational celebration. "
"This time, in addition to fans, Liverpool ’s mayors and senior officials will also come to the scene, and two American bosses will also come. In addition to the arrival of many British media and television stations, the impact of this celebration will not be small. Liverpool is taking this opportunity to show its importance to you, and this is also a kind of momentum. "
The reason for the momentum is simple. Next, there is a more important personal award waiting for Yang Yang.
That is Mr. World Football!
That's the real highlight.
Not long ago, FIFA announced the top three lists of World Footballers. Yang Yang and Kaka were among the top three. This is without any suspense. It is surprising that the third ticket was actually obtained. Messi of Barcelona.
I have to say that this is really surprising, because Cristiano Ronaldo performed even better than Messi last season, and Manchester United has also entered the quarterfinals of the Champions League in addition to the Premier League championship.
No matter from which point of view, Cristiano Ronaldo seems to have more reason to be shortlisted.
Sometimes this is the case, Messi is in the top three.
Of course, Yang Yang does not feel that Messi is unworthy or not at this level, because at this level, the difference between them is not big. It is difficult to make it clear who is going in and who is not.
But in terms of results, it is indeed Cristiano Ronaldo who is even better, including personal data.
It is believed that Messi's entry into the top three has a lot to do with his birth in Argentina, the two consecutive three games in the last stage of last season, and the five consecutive players against Getafe.
What's more, top giants like Barcelona do their best to push behind.
Without further ado, which of the players who can play for Barcelona are not playing a decisive role in their respective national teams? Some are even directly the captain of the national team, who have the right to vote.
Therefore, the top giants still have an advantage in this regard.
And this reminds Yang Yang that he must be careful, and he will have no chance of winning until the last moment.
At the very least, Kaka's background and the platform he is on are higher than Yang Yang.
…………
…………
When Yang Yang, who was wearing a Liverpool jersey and holding the European Golden Globe, appeared at Anfield Stadium, there were already more than 10,000 fans gathered in the stadium. Although the stands were quite empty, the momentum was very loud.
At this point in time, he came to the scene to celebrate Yang Yang, and all are **** fans of Liverpool and Yang Yang.
A simple stage was set up in the middle of the stadium. Benitez has already stood with Liverpool players.
Yang Yang quickly stepped onto the stage and embraced the coaching staff, teammates and staff one by one, thanking them for coming to celebrate for themselves, and then shaking hands with guests such as Rick Parry, the two American bosses, and the Mayor of Liverpool.
When Yang Yang finally stood on the stage and raised the European Golden Globe with his hands high, the audience gave a deafening cheer.
From now on, Liverpool will have the second European Golden Globe!
Even, but not long after, they are likely to have the first World Footballer in Liverpool and Premier League history!
This made all fans on the scene feel very excited.
The honor of Yang Yang is the glory of Liverpool and their fans!
Feeling the fanatical atmosphere at the scene, Yang Yang was also very excited. He walked to the microphone and thanked all the fans with trembling.
"For me, it is my great honor to be able to bring the European Golden Globe to Anfield and share it with everyone. Here, I would also like to thank my coaches, teammates and the club The management and all the staff also thank everyone and all Liverpool fans. "
"It doesn't belong to me alone, it belongs to everyone, everyone in Liverpool!"
Yang Yang's emotional speech once again brought him extremely warm applause and cheers.
...
Anfield ’s celebration lasted for an hour.
Subsequently, Liverpool hosted a luncheon at the St. Thomas Hotel, which was in charge of all guests, media reporters, and the club, but the two American bosses left early after attending the celebration.
Recently, their situation is not so good.
The subprime mortgage crisis in the United States has intensified, and the wealth of both of them is said to have shrunk dramatically. When they acquired Liverpool, they used the same approach as the Glazer family and borrowed heavily. Then they threatened to build a new stadium for Liverpool and introduce superstars. None of them were fulfilled, and the new stadium project was forced to be put on hold temporarily.
During the winter break this year, Mourinho hopes to be recruited to win the league title this season, and Liverpool's long-cherished wishes over the years, but the two American bosses seem to be reluctant. It was also not very happy.
Earlier, there were even rumors that the two American bosses were quite dissatisfied with Benitez and wanted to replace Benitez with Mourinho, but as Liverpool's recent state recovers, everyone will never say anything. This matter.
In this case, the two American bosses were able to come to the celebration ceremony, which already counted on Yang Yang.
After the lunch at the St. Thomas Hotel, Yang Yang still did not sit back.
After a half-hour break, he was accompanied by Liverpool General Manager Rick Parry to attend a celebration of Liverpool ’s main sponsor Carlsberg, which was also organized by Carlsberg for Yang Yang to win the European Golden Globe. activity.
And this time, Yang Yang also put on a commemorative t-shirt specially tailored for him by Adidas.
Speaking of the commemorative version, in fact, it is printed on the ordinary Liverpool custom t-shirt, with some celebration statements about the Golden Globe Award, which may be from Benitez or Gerald, a total of A set of a dozen pieces.
This is also the usual routine of Adidas, and the entire set of commemorative t-shirts will be sold exclusively in Liverpool ’s fan store.
For any professional club, the main sponsor is the big gold, usually two, the shirt sponsor and the chest advertising sponsor of the shirt, Liverpool ’s jersey was originally Reebok, but after Reebok was acquired by Adidas , Turned into Adidas, and chest advertising has been Carlsberg in the past ten years.
Although Yang Yang ’s boot sponsor is Nike, as a Liverpool player, attending the activities of Adidas and Carlsberg is not against the rules. After all, the club ’s sponsor is larger than the individual sponsor.
Of course, when he attended the event, he wore Nike sneakers on his feet.
Nike will send several pairs of shoes every month, including some running shoes or casual shoes, these are in the terms of the sponsorship contract, and sometimes Yang Yang himself can't figure out the specific terms and permissions.
For example, when he participated in the Carlsberg event, he wore an Adidas jersey, but Adidas also sent sneakers, but was stopped by Laiola and replaced with Nike sneakers carried by Italian fat men.
According to Laiola, if you wear Adidas shoes on this occasion, Nike's phone will immediately call for accountability.
Yang Yang is also quite speechless about this, but he can think about it. He has won 10 million euros every year. Now he gets the European Golden Globe Award, and he has extra income. It is normal to do something for others.
Besides, the pair of sneakers under his feet sold more than 1,000 yuan in China. Now Nike is free like Chinese cabbage. With so much money posted, he is enough.
The only trouble is that he was really exhausted when he participated in various activities for two consecutive days.
He always felt that he was more used to training grounds and courts than to these occasions.
And more importantly, he was uncomfortable without training for two days.
