Chapter 884 Focus
"Welcome to today's Season in Progress... Let's talk about the hottest topic in Premier League football these days: do you think Leeds City will eventually beat Stan Park Rangers and become the league champions?"
< br>
In the studio of the TV station, Bobby Klein, the host of the famous English football program "In Season", was asking two guests on the program. He first threw the question to the first guest with a thick beard: "Heck. Tuo, what do you think about this? ”
A bald man sitting next to the bearded guest laughed when he heard this. The bearded man shook his head helplessly and said with a smile: "As a former Stan Park Rangers player, what do you think I will think, Bobby?"
This bearded man is the famous Stan Park Rangers player, the "Rock" Hector Ingram whose portrait will be hung on the "Hall of Honor" after his retirement. Back then, he was always covered in scars and looked fierce on the court, but now he is sitting in the studio in a suit and ties, and he is already a TV commentator.
Klein laughed: "But I just want to hear what you think, Hector. That would be interesting."
Hector Ingram glanced at the bald man sitting next to him who was also smiling happily, and decided to divert the trouble: "Peter, don't laugh, your team will face Leeds City in the next round."
Former Tramed midfielder Peter Nelson, who had played for Tramed for ten years and won four Premier League titles and one Champions League championship, was not angry at all when he heard this. With a mean smile on his face: "Then beg me, Hector! Please Tramed can help you stop Leeds City!"
Ingram didn't agree with him: "What am I begging you to do? You can't decide the outcome of the game."
He shrugged and continued: "Anyway, if you can beat Leeds City, we will take advantage of it. If you lose to Leeds City...hehe!"
Ingram grinned: "We are brothers!"
The smile on Bald Nelson's face finally disappeared.
The next game is indeed a dilemma for Tramed - a win against Leeds City and a nine out of ten chance of helping his arch-rival Stan Park Rangers win the title. Losing the game became the most important stepping stone before Leeds City's historic ascension to the Premier League throne.
No matter which result it is, Tramed will feel uncomfortable.
Klein laughed when he saw the two guests arguing.
I don’t know how many people in the audience in front of the TV were laughing happily.
That’s the style of “In Season” — why else would Nelson and Ingram, two bitter rivals during their playing days, become regular guests on the show?
Many times people love to watch these two people falling in love and killing each other on the show.
And Klein is often responsible for the fire.
Just like this topic.
Whether Leeds City can win the Premier League championship is very topical. Under this big topic, Stan Park Rangers and Tramed are having fun, which everyone likes to see.
Because both teams are suffering from Leeds City this season.
Not to mention Stan Park Rangers, they have been fighting Leeds City throughout the season.
Tramed's relationship with Leeds City this season has been tense because of the controversial penalty kick last season.
The two teams have only met once so far this season, with Tramed losing to Leeds City away from home.
Klein once again played his role as a professional in the show: "Speaking of it, it is really unexpected that Leeds City can have such a performance this season. But if you review the analysis carefully, you will find that they really took off from home 2: 1 After defeating Tramed, I started. I think that game gave them great confidence, and also made Coach Clark realize that his team has the ability to compete with BIG6... So Peter, if Leeds City really wins the championship, your team must be a big contributor. ! Aha! ”
Ingram also laughed happily: "Bobby is right. If you lose to Leeds City at home this Saturday, you will be a big contributor!"
Amid the laughter, Nelson looked a bit ugly. His team was in the embarrassing situation of becoming the opponent's "big contributor" whether Stan Park Rangers won the championship or Leeds City won the championship.
He still adjusted his mentality and shook his head: "Hector, I want to remind you that London Bridge is not easy to deal with. Although they are playing away games, they have to compete with North London Wanderers for the Europa League qualification."
Ingram said seriously: "London Bridge is of course a very difficult opponent, but I believe the Rangers will fight until the last minute!"
Klein smiled: "Hector, what's going on with your suddenly serious tone?"

"We are obviously going to compete for the championship, why do we keep talking about Tramed and Stan Park Rangers?"
In the "White Rose" bar, Leeds City fans shook their heads and complained at the "Season In Progress" program being played on TV.
"Tramed is indeed the most important next step. If we can't beat them away from home, it is really impossible to expect London Bridge to beat Stan Park Rangers away from home..." John Falkingham stood Explain your position objectively to your partners.
He said this, and everyone thought it made sense. Some people sighed: "If you had told me that Leeds City could win the Premier League runner-up when we had just successfully avoided relegation, then I would really fly to the sky with joy... Even five rounds ago, I would not have felt that it was a sad thing not to win the league championship... But now, now I can't accept that we lost to Tramed in an away game and then failed to win the championship. This is the result..."
"Who isn't?" Levin patted the shoulder of his friend who said this, raised the wine glass in his hand and clinked it with him to show his understanding.

"Ricardo!"
Felipe Ferreira walked into the living room of the villa and found that the 100-inch TV was on, and the program "In Progress" was playing inside.
The host Klein and the two guests Ingram and Nelson are talking in a relaxed tone about the two focus matches in the next round.
But there was no one on the sofa opposite the TV.
This surprised Ferreira.
So he stood in the living room and shouted.
No one responded to him.
After Ferreira stood in the living room and thought for a while, he turned around and walked resolutely towards the direction of the gym.
Sure enough, he saw the Portuguese teenager with his upper body naked and sweating profusely on a spinning bike in the gym.
Judging from the way he gritted his teeth, he seemed to be struggling.
"I guess you are right here." Ferreira crossed his arms and leaned against the wall. "Why are you suddenly thinking about training at night?"
"I feel like I still have energy, so I'm going to practice." Balya said through gritted teeth while pedaling hard on the bicycle.
"Are you excited?" Ferreira looked at Baria with a half-smile.
Balea did not look at his agent, but continued riding: "Felipe, what do you think I am inferior to that French boy?"
"Hasn't your goal always been Kabangka and Melli?" Ferreira asked.
"But neither of them is my opponent in the next game."
"It looks like you are going to beat Leeds City in the next game and prevent them from winning the title?"
"I don't care if they can win the championship, I just want to beat them, especially the French kid."
Baria gritted his teeth and said.
He recalled the first meeting between the two teams this season, the confrontation between him and Ismail Kamara.
His dribbling was intercepted by the opponent, and he chased back with great speed.
In the end, he indirectly "assisted" Hulay's goal. It was that goal that allowed Leeds City to defeat Tramed 2:1 at home. So he was ridiculed by that French boy...
Judging from this game alone, although he scored a goal in the game, Ricardo Barea did not think his performance was very good.
He scored a goal in the Premier League for the first time, but also saw the cruelty of the Premier League for the first time.
Since then, both Tramed and Barea's performances in the Premier League have been ups and downs.
Judging from the expectations placed on him when he joined the team, his first Premier League season was not considered a success.
Then the next round of the game against Leeds City will be his opportunity to prove himself again.
As Barea's agent and father figure, Ferreira knows very well that Barea's competitive spirit has been aroused.
He may have been holding back his energy since that encounter and wanted to take revenge in this game.
"Thank God for the arrangement, Felipe. If I can beat them in this game, I will definitely impress them!" Barea finally ended his training and jumped off the bicycle, panting. Breathing heavily, he grinned at Ferreira.

"Qingqing, your friend has a chance to win the Premier League championship! This is really incredible, you know they were still relegated last season..."
"We haven't really got it yet. They have to defeat Tramed first... Huh? Lilith, are you still paying attention to the Premier League?" Li Qingqing stopped what he was doing and looked up at his teammate Lilith Raza in surprise.
"Hey, do you look down on me, Qingqing? Why can't I pay attention to the Premier League? The fact that Leeds City may win the Premier League championship is attracting attention throughout Europe!"
Li Qingqing believes in this. Recently, the French media have been reporting on the ownership of the Premier League champion. On the one hand, it is because the Premier League, as the first of the five major European leagues, has an amazing influence. On the other hand, the Leeds City team is indeed very topical, and their championship is even more topical.
"...The only pity is that Leeds City did not win the league title in the first season after being promoted to the Premier League. That would be even more awesome. Of course, such a miracle in football is almost impossible nowadays... So in fact, they have done a lot Well, actually I think it doesn’t matter if they don’t win the championship, it won’t affect their achievements at all..." Lilith Raza suddenly extended an invitation to Li Qingqing as she spoke: "Qingqing, I took a look at us on the day of the competition. There is no competition, let’s watch the game together and cheer for your friends!”
Li Qingqing came back to her senses and heard Lilith's proposal. She hesitated for a moment, and finally nodded: "Okay!"
