Chapter 30 Starting Game

When Mourinho read out his name, perhaps because he had been prepared, Chu Feng was unusually calm.

But the other team members in the meeting room felt unprepared.

Although Rashford has participated in the national team competition and has not yet fully recovered, Lingard and Martial are still on the bench.

No matter from which aspect, the comprehensive strength of these two players should make them the starting lineup.

But this may be Mourinho's intention, to keep Martial on the bench to serve as a warning to them.

Among them, Ibrahimovic and Carrick, who knew Chu Feng's strength best, smiled with satisfaction at the same time.

With that kid's talent and attitude, it was only a matter of time before he made the starting lineup, they had no doubt about it.

Mourinho didn't explain too much and went straight into the tactical arrangements.

"First of all, let's talk about the attack, which is mainly advanced from the middle, with different deployments on the two sides."

"Mata, on the right side, you need to be closer to the right front of the penalty area to cooperate with Valencia's insertion and cross."

Mourinho drew key areas on the tactical board and marked the direction of attack with arrows.

"Once the opponent's defensive strength is tilted, immediately pass the ball to the teammates in the middle and shift the attack to the left side."

"Chu, at this time, you must speed up the offensive rhythm and break through on the wing to disrupt Leicester City's dense defense."

"Remember, you have to be quick, otherwise the opponent will probably react, form a small area of ​​defense to steal the ball, and then counterattack."

Chu Feng put down the pen in his hand and replied softly: "Coach, I understand."

Mourinho nodded and looked very satisfied.

Through the daily reports submitted by Faria, he could clearly know what Chu Feng did every day.

To be honest, he was quite surprised after half a month.

After all, Chu Feng is only 18 years old, and his teammates are all out or on vacation.

He was able to control his temper and complete his own plan without being arrogant or impatient.

What a good player.

Mourinho coughed twice and continued: "Let's talk about other aspects next."

Half an hour later.

"Okay, that's all for today, everyone go back and have a good rest."

"Chu, you stay for a while."

In the conference room.

Dozens of gazes intertwined in mid-air and converged on the black-haired boy.

But they didn't have much idea either.

After all, Chu Feng trained so hard, it would be most unfair if he didn't get any special treatment.

"There are many inaccuracies in your tactical summary from a while ago. I will explain it to you now that I have time."

Chu Feng immediately came over and listened carefully.

Although it's not nice to say this, every time after listening to Faria's explanation, he always felt that he was still a little short of fully understanding.

Of course, it could also be that I’m just too stupid.

As one of the world's top coaches, Mourinho explains tactics in a simple and profound way, which makes people feel very thorough.

Before I knew it, another half hour had passed.

Chu Fengcai walked out of the conference room and went to the training ground to find Carrick to practice long passes.

For the next two days, his life remained uneventful and passed in peace.

However, there was one thing that made him very depressed: his dribbling attribute was stuck at 79.99.

No matter how much I trained, the values ​​didn't budge at all.

Will playing football also encounter bottlenecks? However, he knew that this matter could not be rushed, so he could only calm down and take it slowly.

When the time comes to August 27, the fourth round of the Premier League is about to begin.

Chu Feng followed his teammates and boarded the bus to Leicester City.

An hour and a half later.

King Power Stadium.

This place where miracles once happened has one of the best fans in England.

Don't come because of fame when it's at its peak, and don't leave when it's at its lowest.

The players on the field have finished warming up and returned to the locker room to make final preparations.

When the two teams released their starting lineups, many fans looked at the unfamiliar name in surprise.

Chu Feng!

He only came on as a substitute twice in the first three rounds, and the total time was less than 45 minutes.

There is no mistake in the poem, post, content, and read the book on 6, 9, and bar!

Can he shoulder the heavy responsibility? Manchester United fans are used to it.

Thinking back to the past.

An 18-year-old boy, wearing the No. 7 jersey of the Red Devils, started the game and later became the king of the Champions League.

There was also an 18-year-old fat boy who scored a hat-trick on his debut. He was later brought back to Old Trafford by Ferguson and set many records.

So in the hearts of Manchester United fans, there is always an inexplicable liking for 18-year-old players.

What's more, after two rounds of league games, they are already very familiar with Chu Feng's technical characteristics.

His skillful dribbling skills are definitely a powerful weapon to break through dense defenses, not to mention that he is also more stable than his peers.

What’s more, in just 30 minutes, Chu Feng scored a goal and made an assist, and his efficiency alone was far superior to Martial and Lingard.

Why can't they play? So they took the opportunity to discuss it heatedly before the game. - [Are Rojo and Luke Shaw injured again? ] - [Manchester United's defense has a big problem, otherwise they wouldn't have been tied by Stoke City in the last round. ] - [With Leicester City's firepower, if Manchester United is still in its old state, it's hard to say whether it will overturn. ] - [Although Drinking Water Brother has transferred to Chelsea, Leicester City still has Mahrez and Vardy, and the connection between the two is still very threatening. ] - [But the lack of Kante is too fatal, and the defensive strength of the midfield has dropped a lot. ] - [So Leicester City now prefers to shrink its defense, with Maguire and Morgan on the back line, which can well limit Manchester United's crosses from the wing. ]

While the fans were discussing, players from both teams had already completed their pre-match mobilization and were waiting to play in the player tunnel.

Chu Feng looked across curiously.

Vardy, time seems to have drawn countless memories on the veteran's face, which is a symbol of Leicester City's rise to glory and then fall.

Shinji Okazaki, unknown but indispensable.

Simpson, a former Manchester United outcast.

Mahrez only played in the French Ligue 2 five years ago.

Oh, and Maguire, he looks so cute with a silly look, like Tutu with big ears.

Chu Feng took a deep breath, suppressed the distracting thoughts in his mind, and recalled the tactical arrangements before the game.

Five minutes later.

Under the guidance of the referee team, Chu Feng pulled the caddy and walked out of the player tunnel.

What came into view seemed to be a terrifying blue beast, and the cheers that resounded through the sky seemed to turn into roars.

The little caddy couldn't help but look up and said weakly: "You pinched me and it hurt."

Chu Feng quickly apologized and loosened his grip.

Even after being reborn, he couldn't help but be stunned when he saw such a magnificent scene.

The pre-match guessing ended and Leicester City chose to kick off.

The two teams quickly took their positions.

Following the referee's whistle.

The competition officially begins! (End of this chapter)
