Chapter 18 Li Yanqing's Counterattack

It has to be said that Kevin and Palmer's actions were truly disgusting.

This caused Li Yanqing and Chris to be completely out of sorts during training.

They had little experience with this kind of thing.

Talking directly to Robinson would be pointless; he would definitely side with Kevin.

They've been working together for years, and their status is incomparable to that of the club's coaches and players.

Li Yanqing originally planned to ask Mourinho if he had any good ideas.

But then I thought, it seems the other person isn't good at this either.

If he had even a little more emotional intelligence, Manchester United's management wouldn't have ignored all his suggestions.

"Huh? Chris, aren't the media not allowed in during training?"

A blonde female reporter wearing a black mask and carrying a camera appeared on the side of the stands.

Logically speaking, she shouldn't be able to get in.

“That’s Maggie, a reporter from the Burton Press.”

"She has exclusive interview rights with us, and the club is always open to her. It's just that she hasn't come for a while."

"However, if you don't want outsiders around, you can ask her to leave at any time."

Chris clearly knew the other person well and recognized him at a glance, but seeing him seemed to worsen his mood.

Although the other party provided the club with a sum of money in exchange for exclusive interview rights, it also caused them a lot of trouble.

Sharp and pointed questions always seem to leak information...

This made him feel absolutely no goodwill towards the young and beautiful female reporter.

"Oh no, Chris, she seems to have a great figure."

"We should be more gentlemanly."

"How can you just kick them out?"

Li Yanqing stared in Maggie's direction and laughed to himself, which annoyed Chris.

"What time is it? You're still thinking about picking up girls?"

"Isn't a life-or-death battle more important than a woman? If you win, you can have as many as you want!"

The latter shook his head repeatedly, how could he be so inconsiderate?

"Don't get me wrong, I just thought of something interesting."

"This might solve the problems that Palmo has caused us!"

Li Yanqing suddenly felt that this woman's appearance was really timely.

media!

How could he forget that there are media outlets he can utilize?

Sometimes, it's more effective to resolve issues outside the competition using methods outside the competition itself.

“It’s nice to meet you, Lee. I’m Maggie. It seems Chris has already introduced me to you.”

"Although you are only the interim head coach and haven't even held a press conference, you seem to be doing a pretty good job."

"A young coach leading a weak team to a miraculous survival in the league—that's going to be explosive news!"

Maggie's warm greeting made Li Yanqing understand why Chris disliked her so much.

Are all journalists so inconsiderate of other people's feelings?

"Thank you, but before that, I have a few more juicy rumors."

"I think it will definitely go viral if I publish it. Do you want to know?"

Maggie immediately became interested when this was mentioned.

No journalist could resist such a proposal!

"Even more exciting than the relegation battle?"

"I will publish it!"

"Listen to me, it's like this..."

The next day.

Training Course.

Li Yanqing seemed to be in a very good mood, chuckling to himself every now and then while directing the training.

"Li, did you hand that photo directly to the media yesterday?"

"If everyone finds out about this now, it will ultimately damage our own morale."

After a night's rest, Chris's mood finally returned to normal.

The reason the former didn't let him talk about it yesterday was because he was worried about this.

"Don't worry, I know what I'm doing, you see."

Li Yanqing took out today's newspaper from behind him, and in a prominent position was a somewhat blurry photo.

"You're just directly..." Chris was stunned before he could finish his sentence.

"Wait, this isn't Kevin, it's you! Why are you and Palmer in the photo?"

Not only was the content of the photo changed, but the news headline was also very catchy.

Young head coach collaborates with star player to defraud club of breach of contract fees!

The details below describe how hard Miss Maggie persevered in secretly filming the two meeting and dividing the spoils.

The newspaper's official channel even included an audio recording.

Most of the content is about how to divide the spoils and how to sign Palmerston back to Burton Albion for the next season.

As for helping the team avoid relegation, it was only mentioned briefly at the end.

There is no doubt that this typical club scandal quickly took over the media front page.

Then, it ferments rapidly.

"I had someone Photoshop it. Guess what? Will Blackburn still dare to use Palmer's advice now?"

"Most likely you're too afraid, but haven't you considered the consequences of doing so?"

Chris looked at Li Yanqing, somewhat puzzled.

Being a head coach requires prestige, and this might temporarily solve the Pamo problem, but Li Yanqing's reputation is basically ruined now.

Even if they manage to avoid relegation, will Robinson continue to use him?

I doubt any club would be willing to give him a chance!

“It’s okay, Chris.”

"This isn't the biggest trump card. Don't forget, the photo is photoshopped!"

Li Yanqing shook his head and explained.

"I'll have Maggie post that photo tomorrow, on match day."

"Guess what Kevin's expression will be then?"

At this point, Chris suddenly realized what was going on and looked at Li Yanqing with a strange expression.

"Who taught you to do that?"

"This is so dark, hahaha..."

That evening, the entrance to Burton Albion was completely blocked by reporters who had come after hearing the news.

Li Yanqing didn't keep hiding; instead, he pretended to be furious and stood directly at the gate.

"Fake! These are all rumors!"

"The photo is photoshopped; I never did such a thing!"

"Miss Maggie, who spread rumors about me, let's meet in court!"

The media was overjoyed by the party's reaction; such a strong reaction must mean they felt guilty!

After all, he's only 25 years old as head coach; he's still too young!
