Chapter 252: Fifth in the league! Best record in team history!
Beep~Beep~~Beep~~~~
With the referee's long whistle, all the players on both sides of the court who were running on the field came to an abrupt stop.
The scoreboard at the King Power Stadium was fixed at 2-0.
The home team is in the front and the away team is in the back.
Without any surprises, Leicester City easily defeated the early-relegated Queens Park Rangers at home and ended the season with a victory.
At the same time, another match between Manchester United and Hull City also ended.
The Red Devils defeated Hull City 0-1 in the away game and finally defended their Champions League qualification.
As soon as the game ended, Vardy immediately ran to the sidelines and asked the coach about the result of Manchester United's game.
After receiving the disappointing answer, he couldn't help but curl his lips.
At this time, Blue Fox coach Pearson came to his side and hugged his shoulders:
“Don’t think too much, we have performed well enough!”
"Let's go! Let's celebrate!"
Although the team failed to overtake Manchester United at the last moment.
However, from the moment the initiative for the fourth place was handed over to Manchester United, they could only do their best to accept fate.
Therefore, it is certainly a pity that the team failed to historically break into the top four of the league and qualify for the Champions League.
But the Blue Fox fans who filled the stadium still gave the team and players the warmest applause.
Under the applause of the fans and the comfort of the head coach, the Blue Fox generals also smiled one after another.
As a newly promoted team that is not favored by everyone, it is already extraordinary to end the season fifth in the league.
You know, before the start of the season, their odds of reaching the top six were 1:3000!
In other words, if you bet one pound that they finish in the top six, you can win three thousand pounds.
Odds of three thousand times!
And fifth place in the league is already Leicester City’s best record in the Premier League in the 131 years since the team was founded!
Such a record is enough for Pearson and every Blue Fox player's name to be engraved in the history of the Blue Fox team!
Although they finished fifth in the league this season, they missed the precious opportunity to go to the Champions League next year.
However, Ling Feng personally did not feel regretful or regretful. Instead, he felt that this ranking was just right!
Because, his goal next season is to help the Blue Fox win the Premier League championship!
For Leicester City, it would not be a good thing if they get Champions League tickets this season.
With Leicester City’s current player strength and lineup depth, even if they recruit heavily in the summer window, they will not be able to cope with the Champions League and the league at the same time, and will easily fall into the quagmire of two-front operations.
In short, the water in the Champions League is too deep and the Blue Fox cannot grasp it!
There are so many strong teams in the Champions League, and opportunities are rare. Clubs and players definitely want to seize the opportunity and perform well in the Champions League.
And if they want to win in the Champions League, they must use all their main players.
No matter win or lose, the main players after playing in the Champions League need to rest, and the league can only adopt rotation.
If you rotate, the team's strength will decrease and the probability of losing will increase.
As a result, the results of the league will inevitably be seriously affected!
If they play in the Europa League instead, it will be more beneficial for Leicester City to compete for the league championship next year.
Most of the opponents in the Europa League are still weaker than those in the Champions League.
Moreover, proper rotation can also be carried out. The substitute players have relative playing time, which is also a good thing for the atmosphere of the locker room.
Ling Feng remembers very clearly that when future generations of football experts analyzed why the Blue Fox were able to create unprecedented miracles in the 2015-16 Premier League season, they listed many reasons.
A very important reason is that the Blue Fox only needs to deal with single-line operations in the league!
Other rivals for the title all had to fight on two fronts, and various problems arose.
However, this season, because of its own presence, the Blue Fox still achieved a good ranking of fifth in the league despite fighting on two fronts.
Next season, if the team carries out appropriate recruitment operations as it has in history, Ling Feng will be confident in leading the team to win the Premier League and Europa League championships even in a two-front battle!
Originally, the Blue Foxes won the Premier League championship without him.
Now, after having himself, if the Blue Foxes fail to win the Premier League championship next season, it will definitely be their own fault!
And what he has to do is to make sure that he doesn't take the blame!
As his thoughts were spinning, Ling Feng did not forget to find Lin Huang, who was on loan, and gave him a big hug:
"Jesse, great job!"
< br>“Thank you.”
“This should be your last game wearing a blue jersey.”
Ling Feng knows very well that Lingard, who is a youth trainee of the Red Devils, will not be in Leicester City in the future.
Even if I ask him to stay, he may not stay.
After all, wasn't the reason why he was loaned to Leicester City just to get enough playing time and then return to Manchester United? !
His performance this season is absolutely remarkable.
As long as Van Gaal is not blind or prejudiced against Lingard, there will definitely be a place for Lingard in the Manchester United team next season!
Therefore, this game is equivalent to Lin Huang's last game wearing a Blue Fox jersey.
Hearing Ling Feng’s words, Lingard was stunned for a moment, and then his mood suddenly dropped
“Yes, I want to go back. However, I will not forget being here. Time!"
After a pause, Lingard suddenly looked serious and said sincerely:
"Thank you, Ling, for helping me adapt to everything here, and thank you for giving me everything. I pass the ball. If it weren’t for you, I probably wouldn’t be able to do a lot of things”
It is also his first season in the Premier League, although Lingard's personal performance is far inferior to Ling Feng.
However, he still scored seven goals and provided six assists in 26 league appearances!
It is worth mentioning that six of the goals were assisted by Ling Feng.
And five of the six assists were given to Ling Feng!
Such an excellent performance, coupled with such a call from Ling Feng, also caused many media and England celebrities to call on Hodgson to give this young man who is always running on the court a chance.
Of course, in his position, he has to face competition from wingers such as Theo Walcott, Welbeck, Townsend, and Barkley.
If he continues to stay in Leicester City and play beside Ling Feng, he may be able to get more playing time, produce better personal data, and get called up by the national team.
However, for Lin, who is eager to return home, Leicester City is only a springboard for him to take a short break, and Manchester United is his home.
Facing Lingard is a bit sensational. Grateful, Ling Feng smiled slightly, punched Lin Huang in the chest, and joked:
"Next season, we will be our opponents. By then, I will not show mercy!"
"Don't worry, I will do my best!" As soon as they finished speaking, the two looked at each other and smiled.
In just one year, the two have formed a deep friendship.
After bidding farewell to Lin Huang, Ling Feng also came to Maguire, another loaned player.
Unlike Lingard's situation, Maguire does have a chance to stay.
Maguire's parent club Hull City have been relegated this season.
It is clear at a glance which option is better, returning to Hull City to play with the team in the English Championship, or staying at Leicester City to play in the Premier League.
Moreover, Maguire's transfer fee is not high, his strength and potential are good, and he is a very good supplement to the team's defense.
With my current position in the club, if I mention it to the head coach, the club will definitely be very willing to keep Maguire.
In Ling Feng’s opinion, Maguire must be very willing to stay.
Therefore, he was not in a hurry to mention this matter to Maguire or the head coach.
After hugging Maguire and exchanging pleasantries, he went straight to Ferdinand, who had completed the last game of his career, and sent his most sincere blessings to the England star:
"Leo, congratulations on your retirement!"
The two hugged, and Ferdinand also smiled:
"Haha, thank you very much. I was able to compete with you in the last game. Playing against talented players like you is a good retirement gift.”
"After all, I will never have the chance to compete with players of your level in the future."
After a pause, Ferdinand rolled his eyes and suddenly asked: "Ling, do you want to play for Manchester United?"
As soon as these words came out, Ling Feng's expression did not change at all.
Because this is the first time that I don’t know how many opponents have recruited their own players for the team after the game.
Especially England’s seniors, Gerrard, Lampard, Beckham and others, asked almost all of them!
As the unparalleled star of the British Empire and the core of the Three Lions midfielder, which Premier League giant is not greedy?
However, Ling Feng had already been prepared for this situation.
I saw him smile slightly, spread his hands, and replied meaningfully:
"Who knows what will happen in the future?"
. .
After joining hands with his teammates in front of each stand to say goodbye, Ling Feng also ushered in a moment worth remembering in his career.
That’s the award for the Premier League assist king!
Standing in front of an official Premier League background board, Ling Feng received the Premier League assists champion trophy from the Premier League staff.
This award can be said to have been born in advance because of him.
Moreover, this is his first Premier League assists title after breaking Henry's assist record.
The gold content and commemorative value are directly maximized!
Now, the display cabinet in the villa has another "resident".
While Ling Feng was taking pictures with the trophy, all the fans at the King Power Stadium stood up and paid tribute to this A club darling gave the most sincere applause.
At the same time, under the leadership of the die-hard fan group "Fox Club" William and Bob, the fans in the audience shouted "MVP"
This is for He was upset when he lost to Eden Hazard in the PFA Player of the Year competition.
In the hearts of thousands of Blue Fox fans, Ling Feng this season is the well-deserved best in the Premier League!
Faced with the support of the fans, Ling Feng just waved to the fans in the stands with a smile on his face and patted the team logo on his chest in response to his love for the team and the fans.
After bidding farewell to the fans, he returned to the interview area in the player tunnel. Ling Feng accepted a post-match interview with Sky Sports:
“Ling, first of all, congratulations to you for becoming the Premier League assist king this season. , you deserve it.”
“Thank you.”
"Let's talk about this season, shall we? Before the season started, did you ever think that the team would end up here?"
"Of course not, but I didn't doubt the team for a moment. Can I gain a foothold in the Premier League? "
"This season has been a dream for me personally and for the team."
"I am very grateful to the club, my teammates and the team. It is because of the full support of the fans that I can go all out on the field and help the team win."
"Ling, this is your first season in the Premier League. If you were asked to rate yourself, how many points would you give yourself out of 10?”
Pretending to think for a moment in front of the camera, Ling Feng immediately replied:
"Well I would rate myself eight points."
"Oh, why only eight points? You know, there are many Everyone thinks that your performance this season is a perfect score.”
“Because I’m afraid that I’m too proud! So I left two points to give myself room to continue to improve.”
Lost. With such an answer, Ling Feng walked away, leaving only some reporters who were still wondering about the meaning of this sentence
That evening, the club organized an awards dinner in Leicester's most luxurious hotel.
At the dinner, Ling Feng was undoubtedly elected as the team's best player of the season.
The prize is a luxury seven-day trip to Thailand for two people.
The entire trip will be paid for by the travel group behind the club owner!
However, for Ling Feng, who is worth over ten million, this little money is not worth mentioning.
At the dinner, everyone was very happy.
On the one hand, the team's performance this season has exceeded expectations, and they have also received the high bonuses promised by the club owner;
On the other hand, they have been busy for a season and finally finally Ushered in a rare holiday!
So that night, everyone, including Ling Feng, was extremely drunk.
Lingard even started crying while hugging Ling Feng who looked helpless.
He still kept saying:
"Uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu. br>This scene was filmed by Vardy and then posted online.
Under the ridicule and pranks of the fans, this photo became a dark history of Lin Huang and a testimony of the friendship between the two
The next day, just as Ling Feng returned home While I was lying on the bed soundly asleep, major media, magazines and newspapers began to summarize the season one after another.
This season, there are two teams that have performed the best, and both have the highest season rating of A.
One team is Chelsea who won the championship.
Under the leadership of "Madman" Mourinho, Chelsea is not only solid on the defensive end, but also has a completely new look on the offensive end compared to last season.
The "Fabregas Connection" formed by Cesc Fabregas and Costa defeated England, and Hazard, "London's only scoring champion", also played at his peak data and turned into a natural extraordinary maniac.
The Blues have performed strongly since the start of the game, almost killing Gods when God blocks them, and killing Buddha when Buddha blocks them.
In the end, in addition to winning the championship three rounds in advance, it also set a new record of leading the Premier League standings for 272 days!
The other team is the newly promoted Leicester City, which has reached the quarter-finals of the Europa League and the top six in the league as a super dark horse, creating the best record in team history!
