Chapter 277 England’s Platinum Generation? Haha
The Blue Fox are making rapid progress in the league, winning consecutive games, which has attracted close attention from English football and even European football.
As a result, Sky Sports specially conducted a fan interview, interviewing fans of various teams in major cities in England and asking them their opinions on this season's Premier League championship.
Most fans do not believe that Leicester City can win the championship, and believe that the championship will be among teams such as Manchester City, Chelsea, and Manchester United
Except even Blue Fox fans, they do not I think the team has the strength to win the championship.
At most, it is believed that the team can reach the top four and qualify for the Champions League next season.
Of course, there are a very small number of fans who believe that Leicester City has the ability to do something special this season.
For example, William is the manager of the "Fox Club", a die-hard Leicester City fans organization!
Faced with an interview with Sky Sports, this die-hard Blue Fox fan who has been a Blue Fox fan since birth said with a serious face:
"Mark my words, we will win this season." Winner!”
Then, he took out the betting slip he carried with him and raised it to the camera:
“Look, I also bet a hundred pounds that the Blue Fox will win the championship!”
When the reporter asked him why he was so confident, William pulled out a jersey signed by Ling Feng and replied:
"I believe in Ling Feng, he never It will disappoint us!”
“Forward, Blue Fox”
If this interview reaches this point, it will be a precious image of die-hard fans' unconditional support and trust in the team.
But at this time, his good brother Bob, who was standing aside and being interviewed with him, exposed him in front of the camera:
“Don’t listen to this guy’s nonsense. Last season He made a bet with me that he planned to bet Leicester City for one hundred pounds every year until the team actually won the Premier League championship.”
Although it was just for a bet with a friend, not really! I think the team can really win the championship.
However, they are willing to spend one hundred pounds every year to bet that the team can win the championship. The two of them are indeed Leicester City's most loyal fans!
You know, Leicester City returned to the Premier League last year after ten years!
Win the championship?
Easier said than done!
It is worth mentioning that the obsession of the people of Daiying with gambling can be compared with the obsession of the people of China with eating!
In addition to football and other sports fields, there are many magical single betting methods in gambling companies of all sizes, such as "Justin Bieber was elected President of the United States" and "Elvis Presley is not dead but just lives in seclusion in the mountains." “Can DiCaprio win an Oscar?” and so on.
Take Leicester City's scandal and coaching change in the summer as an example. Gambling companies have also issued questions such as "Will Pearson be sacked?" "Who is the new Blue Fox coach?" "Will Ling Feng leave Leicester City this summer?" "Wait for the corresponding bet.
It is no exaggeration to say that in Daiying, there is nothing that is not a gamble!
This very interesting interview also attracted the attention of the Blue Fox fans after it was broadcast.
Many Blue Fox fans posted their betting slips on social media.
There are actually many Blue Fox fans who have done the same thing as William!
Some people bet five pounds, some are betting ten pounds, and some are betting twenty pounds
A large gambling company also broke the news, and some people even bet fifty thousand pounds, betting that Leicester City will win this year. !
You know, Leicester City’s odds of winning are two hundred times.
In other words, once Leicester City really wins the championship, the fifty thousand pounds will become ten million pounds!
Ling Feng, who learned about this incident through fans’ comments, also @William on his social media account, and then tweeted:
"Guys, I will work hard to prevent you from losing money!"
Just after sending a tweet on his mobile phone, Ling Feng heard the voice of a female assistant beside him:
"Boss, don't forget, you also bet fifty thousand pounds yourself."
Hearing this, Ling Feng immediately corrected him:
"It's not my fifty thousand pounds, but It’s fifty thousand pounds from your other boss!”
Yes.
The only "fan" who bet 50,000 pounds on Leicester City winning the championship this season is Ling Feng himself.
However, it was not him who placed the bet, but his agent Mendes.
As a professional player, there is a clear rule that you cannot participate in any form of gambling.
So, in order to prevent himself from getting into trouble, he specially asked Mendes to place the bet.
After all, there is no rule saying that player agents cannot place bets.
What's more, this kind of betting method is not about betting on the winning or losing of a single game, but just betting on which team will win the championship. There is no possibility of manipulating the game at all.
The Premier League lasts for thirty-eight rounds. It is simply impossible to control a Premier League team to win the championship!
Even the Football Association is just making some scripts in the crucial battle for the championship.
If there is no hard power to become a championship contender, no one can help Leicester City win the championship.
Therefore, as long as Ling Feng himself is not involved, even if his family and friends all buy Leicester City to win the championship, the betting company can't do anything to him.
It is worth mentioning that when Mendes heard Ling Feng’s request for him to bet, Mendes thought it was just a way for Ling Feng to motivate himself, so he readily agreed.
As everyone knows, Ling Feng is full of confidence and certainty in whether he can lead the team to win the championship!
In his opinion, this is a very profitable business.
Besides, there is no shop like this after passing this village!
. . .
As October enters, Leicester City has officially entered a two-front battle mode.
In the second round of the Europa League group stage, Leicester City welcomed the Swiss team Sion at home.
Considering that the opponent in the next round of the Premier League is the newly promoted "Canary", which is weak, rotation can be carried out.
Moreover, the sooner they qualify from the Europa League group, the more beneficial it will be for their lineup rotation and formation in the second half of the season.
Therefore, in this game, Ranieri just gave Vardy a rest, and all the other main players came on stage.
Facing the top team in the Premier League, little Sion had no power to fight back.
The score of five to one can be described as a hearty victory!
The day after the victory over Sion, the team went non-stop to the Carrow Road Stadium in Norfolk County in the east to face the newly promoted Premier League team "Canary" Norwich.
Except for Vardy, who had taken a break in the last game and continued to hit the league's consecutive scoring record, Ling Feng, Mahrez, Morgan and other main players were all on the bench.
However, the start of the game was not as smooth as expected.
Only fifteen minutes into the game, Norwich, who were playing at home, relied on the opportunity of a corner kick to take the lead in beating Leicester City's substitutes through a melee in front of the goal.
However, the team did not lose their position due to this.
Just ten minutes later, Vardy received Maguire's long pass from the backcourt, broke into the penalty area, and created a penalty kick.
The most popular shooter in the Premier League stood at the twelve yard point and scored the penalty steadily.
After extending his scoring streak to eight games, he also helped the team equalize the score. In the second half, after already having an understanding of Norwich's player strength and tactics, the Blue Fox began to attack without mercy.
In the end, thanks to Andy King's shot in front of the goal, the Blue Fox won the game in the away game without any danger.
After a season of training, not only the team's main players have grown rapidly, but even the substitutes have gained higher-level game experience.
Coupled with the targeted reinforcements in the summer, the team's substitute lineup also has the strength to defeat the Premier League relegation team!
This game also allowed many people to see Leicester City's stability against small and medium-sized teams.
Although the league is long, it is some details that often determine the championship.
For example, win the game you should win and defeat opponents who are weaker than you!
However, the day after the Blue Foxes won a historic eighth consecutive league victory, a piece of blockbuster news stole the headlines of major media:
Liverpool Club officially announced Coach Rodgers fired!
After coaching Liverpool for three and a half years, Rogers' coaching has been remarkable.
Although he was only one step away from the championship, he still inspired Suarez in his strongest form.
However, the Red Army's performance in the past two seasons has plummeted.
Last season, they only finished seventh in the league and missed the European war.
This season, in the first eight rounds of the league, the Red Army achieved three wins, three draws and two losses, accumulating 12 points and ranking only tenth in the league.
There is a full twelve points gap from the top spot, Leicester City!
Xia Chuang made reinforcements, but the starting record was poor, which was the main reason for Rogers' dismissal.
Rogers also became the second Premier League coach to be sacked this season after Sunderland's Advocaat.
According to media reports, Ancelotti, who was fired by Real Madrid last season, and former Dortmund coach Klopp, who is unemployed at home, are the favorites to take over Liverpool.
Many Red Army fans were surprised by the team's sudden decision to change coaches, and were also confused about the team's prospects.
However, at this moment, perhaps only Ling Feng knows that Liverpool is about to have a coach who will lead them back to the top.
Next year’s Premier League will only be more exciting and intense!
And where your next stop will be, you have to think about it in the long term
. . .
At the beginning of October, the international match day ushered in again.
Ling Feng, who returned to the Three Lions, also ushered in the last two rounds of the European preliminaries.
Because we have qualified early, and our opponents are weak players like Estonia and Lithuania.
So in the remaining two games, Hodgson is also actively recruiting new players to examine candidates for next year's European Cup.
However, Ling Feng, who is the core of the tactics, started for 60 minutes in both games and was then replaced.
His replacement was Tottenham supernova Dele Alli.
Ali's rapid rise in the Premier League is comparable to Ling Feng, who debuted on the Premier League stage last year.
His outstanding performance in the Premier League earned him the appreciation of Hodgson, and he completed a small achievement of skipping the national youth team and directly entering the adult national team.
The last person to achieve this achievement was Ling Feng last year!
Ling Feng, Kane, Sterling and Ali, all the British stars who have made a name for themselves in the Premier League at a young age, have made many British media full of expectations for the future prospects of the Three Lions. .
Even some media, in order to attract attention, directly blew it:
"After the golden generation such as Beckham, Owen, Shuang De, and Ferdinand retired from the stage, British football ushered in the platinum generation headed by players such as Ling Feng and Kane!"
In this regard, Ling Feng just smiled and said nothing, but hehehe in his heart.
He is fully aware of the ability of the British media to brag and build momentum.
In his opinion, not to mention those players who surpass England's golden generation, just among the so-called "platinum generation" players listed by the media, they can truly start in the luxurious lineup of England's golden generation. , at most three and a half people.
One is Ling Feng, one is Kane, and the other is Walker.
The other half is Sterling.
This is not to underestimate Sterling, but he is still quite strong when he is unhappy!
After the short international match day, Lingfeng returned to the club and witnessed another milestone moment in Vardy’s career:
Valdy scored four goals in three games in September. Di, defeated teammate Ling Feng, Manchester United's French star Martial, and West Ham United midfielder Payet and other players to win the first Premier League Player of the Month in his career!
Unfortunately, even though he led the team to three consecutive victories in September, "Tinker" Ranieri once again missed the Coach of the Month award.
Without him, the only team that won three consecutive victories in September was not only Leicester City, but also Manchester United and Tottenham.
Tottenham even defeated Manchester City, currently second in the league, with a 4-1 victory at home.
Considering the strength of his opponents, Tottenham coach Pochettino finally won the best coach award in September.
For this, Leicester City fans are very happy, while Tottenham fans can’t laugh anymore.
However, even if they escaped the "curse" of Coach of the Month, Leicester City still encountered a problem in their first league game in October against Southampton away from home. A hard fight.
This season, Southampton has sent away midfielder Snedlin and winger Klein.
However, the team introduced Romeu and Cedric, quickly integrated into the team system, and filled the vacancy of the two main players leaving the team well.
Especially in the central defender position, the Dutch central defender Van Dijk they signed from Celtic quickly became the backbone of the team's defense.
Although this future "No. 1 defender" is new to the Premier League, he is a bit immature.
But in this game, the defense he led still caused a lot of trouble for Vardy and Ling Feng.
Perhaps because they were very afraid of Leicester City's quick counterattack, Southampton was very cautious in attacking.
In the away game, Leicester City did not take the initiative and could only attack by their opponents.
This made the first half very dull. Most of the time, the two sides were strangled in the midfield, fighting for the ball, and no goals were scored.
It was not until the second half that Southampton woke up from a dream and began to strengthen its offense.
However, this plays right into Leicester City’s hands!
It was with his quick counterattack after stealing the ball that Ling Feng passed a scalpel-like through ball, helping Vardy break into the penalty area and score his twelfth goal of the season!
However, before Leicester City could be happy for too long, Southampton launched a wave of attacks in the frontcourt and got many frontcourt corner kick opportunities.
It was with a corner kick opportunity that Van Dijk showed his header ability and smashed the ball into the gate guarded by Schmeichel.
In the end, Leicester City only got a draw at St. Mary's Stadium.
The team’s winning streak is also fixed at eight games.
