Although Li Qing seemed indifferent on the surface, even more like comforting Klopp and the others, Klopp, Buvac, and Krawietz, who had very rich life experience, couldn’t fail to see Li Qing’s thoughts.

Liverpool winning the league title since the establishment of the Premier League was indeed above everything else, but on second thought, if Li Qing contributed four goals per game, then… could they still lose the game?

Moreover, there seemed to be no team that could score four goals against themselves.

Not to mention Li Qing contributing four goals per game, even if he only scored two goals, he could remain undefeated!

Weren’t the past 14 consecutive victories achieved this way?

Understanding this relationship, Klopp smiled and patted Li Qing’s shoulder: “Boy, do you really have the confidence to surpass Harry Kane and win the league Golden Boot?”

“Of course!”

Li Qing said confidently, almost patting his chest to guarantee it.

In fact, he wasn’t very confident in his heart, but he could only do his best, otherwise, with his talent and stats significantly declining, he might become ordinary. If possible, he must go all out!

Just like a mission issued in the military, regardless of whether it can be done, one must say ‘guarantee to complete the mission’, which is equivalent to one’s certificate of allegiance!

No matter what, the mission must be completed!

Buvac, who had wiped the water from his face, also said at this time: “We were at most ten points behind Chelsea in the league, and now… haven’t we overtaken them by one point? I believe Li will create a miracle! Because… Li represents a miracle!”

When Li Qing heard the last part, his blood actually boiled.

He thought, this… Buvac, the brain, has something!

After the morning training session, assistant coach Buvac called the players together.

Except for Li Qing, all other players showed surprise.

Logically speaking, there would be another training session in the afternoon, so they wouldn’t be called together at the end of the morning training session.

The players gathered with doubts in their hearts, and Buvac directly got to the point: “The main reason for calling everyone together is that Li has a pursuit at the end of the league season, and he wants the support of all you brothers present.”

“Oh?”

Many players looked at Li Qing in confusion.

Li Qing coughed lightly and said the words he had already thought of: “Actually, it just suddenly occurred to me, and I hope all you big brothers will support me.”

“Support what?”

Mané asked curiously.

“I wonder if any of you have noticed the changes in the top scorer list?”

“Top scorer list?”

Firmino frowned and said, “What changes?”

Li Qing rolled his eyes, and a friend had to explain.

After about half a minute, Coutinho’s mouth twitched: “…When did you reach fourth place in the league top scorer list?”

Hearing this, Li Qing also felt a little embarrassed, spreading his hands and saying: “I don’t know, I just scored a hat-trick, and then my name appeared in the top four of the top scorer list.”

Mané and Coutinho, who had scored 13 goals each, felt very speechless. Before Li Qing’s sudden emergence, they were the team’s top scorers.

How many games had passed?

And he was already ranked fourth in the top scorer list?

Henderson asked: “Li, how many league goals have you scored?”

“ 19.”

“Hiss~”

Everyone gasped, and their eyes changed greatly when they looked at Li Qing.

This guy, he’s too fierce, isn’t he?

But on second thought, Li Qing seemed to have been scoring continuously since he started playing for Liverpool in the league, and he had played twelve games. Scoring twice was normal, and even when his form was low, he would still score a goal or assist. Scoring 19 goals actually seemed to be below the average.

Lucas seemed to have guessed something, and he carefully asked: “Li, are you asking everyone to pass more to you so you can win this season’s Premier League top scorer?”

Li Qing smiled and nodded, giving Lucas a thumbs up: “As expected of the old captain, you really get it right away!”

Other teammates suddenly realized what Li Qing meant by support.

Firmino, who had always had a good relationship with Li Qing, was the first to express his stance: “Li, don’t worry, as long as you run into position, I will definitely pass the ball to you.”

Li Qing had excellent popularity in the team. With the first one expressing his stance, there was naturally a second.

Alexander-Arnold, who also came up through the youth academy, put his right hand on Li Qing’s shoulder and said seriously: “Hey, as long as I have a chance to play, I will definitely look for you with my crosses.”

Li Qing smiled and replied: “You don’t have to do that. Just look for me when the situation allows. Don’t pass to me all the time, after all… our goal is the league championship! Let’s make sure we win first.”

Players like Wijnaldum, Matip, and Mané, who were relatively calm, couldn’t help but nod in agreement when they heard Li Qing’s words. If Li Qing’s league Golden Boot was based on the premise of the team winning the league championship, then there was no problem. But if the team hadn’t won yet and he was thinking about personal glory, then Li Qing’s approach was debatable.

Team, always more important than individual.

Through Li Qing’s final supplement, it was clear that the team’s primary goal was victory, followed by individual goals.

Few professional players are fools. Li Qing winning the top scorer award can only enhance his self-worth, but only the league championship can ensure that all players’ self-worth is enhanced and recognized.

The support of the whole team made Li Qing feel honored, and he sincerely said: “Thank you for your support, big brothers!”

In fact, Liverpool players all knew that the team had actually collapsed in the second half of the season, and it was Li Qing’s sudden emergence that saved Liverpool. His one goal after another allowed Liverpool to catch up with Chelsea in the league and advance to the FA Cup final. Helping him compete for the league Golden Boot without affecting everyone’s future was just a small effort…

Moreover, a league Golden Boot at nearly sixteen years old.

How shocking would that be?

Finally, Mignolet asked: “Li, I remember Harry Kane, the top scorer, seems to have scored 27 league goals, right?”

“That’s right.” Li Qing said seriously: “Only 8 goals behind, three games are more than enough.”

All teammates: “…”

Although the gap was a bit big, Li Qing was very enthusiastic and was the team’s livewire and lucky star. Liverpool players did not discourage him; on the contrary, they decided to go crazy with him.

As Li Qing said, “Nothing in the world is difficult for one who sets his mind to it!”

The highly anticipated match at Stamford Bridge that evening ended with Chelsea winning 3- 0, putting them two points ahead of Liverpool with one game in hand.

The pressure was undoubtedly back on Liverpool, but Liverpool fans were not worried at all.

Liverpool’s next opponent, West Ham, had no hope of European qualification and no worries about relegation. The last two league games would definitely focus on training, and it was impossible for them to pose a threat to Liverpool, who were pursuing victory.

A week passed quickly. Chelsea first challenged West Bromwich Albion away. Perhaps the immense pressure from this highly anticipated match caused the Chelsea players to struggle. The match, which should have been decided early, only saw a goal in the late stages of the second half.

Thanks to Pedro’s decisive goal, Chelsea narrowly took away three points. _
