Notts County Club,

David is still being interviewed.

"Liverpool, two wins, one draw and two losses in five group games, must win the next game to qualify from the group."

"Is Liverpool's performance the glory of an English club?"

"Okay, let's not talk about the Champions League teams, let's take a look at the teams that play in the UEFA Cup."

"We don't comment on the League One team of Ipswich Town because probably in the eyes of many people, this League One team that was eliminated in the first round is the same shame as Notts County!"

'If you look at Fulham and Chelsea, can they really represent England in the UEFA Cup?'

'Fulham did well with an away win over Dinamo Zagreb, but Chelsea were knocked out in the first round by Norwegian side Vikings, so can a Premier League team like Chelsea represent England and be the glory of the English league?'

"I don't know where they came from!"

"If you want to defend the honour of English football, there's no problem. But you don't stare at those Premier League teams, but you want us to play a leading role in the League One, what kind of mentality does this have! ”

"Since there are ill-intentioned people who regard Notts County as a disgrace to English football, I am here today to state that in the second leg at home, Notts County will definitely be able to defeat their opponents and advance to the last 32 of the League Cup, and I hope to see those people's swollen faces after that!"

David's words spread throughout English football in a short period of time through the Daily Telegraph, a comprehensive media covering Aurora.

Fans who could only be affected by public opinion before suddenly realized that we were a little too harsh on Notts County?

Although Notts County have far outperformed the average League One team, at the end of the day, they are still a League One team, and reaching the second round of the UEFA Cup is already a very good result, so how much more can they ask them to do?

And there are fans who are particularly good to find the video of this game, and after watching it, they directly scolded the media who fanned the flames in their hearts.

Nima, this is called the gap between the two levels? Notts County are about to beat Celtic in the second half, okay!

That's how important it is to keep track of public opinion, and after a few days of fermentation, Notts County has gone from being a rat that everyone shouts at to an excellent representative of England's lower leagues.

Even many neutral fans have regarded Notts County as the second home team, and spontaneously cheered for the second leg of the Notts County match, hoping that Notts County can play their strength and defeat their opponents to advance to the last 32 of the League Cup.

In the midst of all the uproar, the Notts County club made a low-key return to League One.

In order to be able to make a difference in the upcoming FA Cup, Notts County have changed their strategy at the start of the season and the FA Cup has been added to the contention.

The root of all this is the excellent results of the Notts County League, if they can maintain a huge lead in the league all the time, then in some inconsequential games, Notts County can even strategically give up, so it provides the basis for Notts County to distract from the FA Cup.

If Notts County follows their previous strategy, there may be no European competitions to play after promotion to the Premier League next season, and once they win the FA Cup, it will be different, and the temptation to play in the Premier League while continuing to play in the League Cup is not small.

Therefore, in order to start the FA Cup later, Notts County must score as many points in the league as possible before the start of the FA Cup, and open up the gap with the teams behind them, so as to be distracted from the two cup competitions without worries.

Ahead of the match against Scharwall, Notts County received extremely encouraging news – Alonso is back from injury.

In fact, Alonso was already able to train alone when Notts County went away to Celtic, and by this time, the core of the team had finally joined the team's joint training and was back to the point where he could play with the team's doctor's permission.

However, considering that Alonso has been recuperating from an injury for two months, his form is not guaranteed, and his physical condition may not be excellent, Loew did not put Alonso in the starting line-up in this game, but put him on the bench.

If Alonso can find his form before the second leg against Celtic, then Notts County will have a better chance of winning, and even if the midfield is properly controlled, Celtic will not have the slightest chance, which is Loew's confidence.

Against Scharwall, Notts County took a two-goal lead in the first half and were firmly in control of the situation, leaving the opposition unable to counter-attack.

At the start of the second half, Notts County scored another goal and the game was almost out of suspense.

With 70 minutes played, Alonso came on in place of Mascherano and everyone came over to applaud him.

After Alonso came on, the pace of the game was indeed more controllable for Notts County, and that was Alonso's role, but he was also finding his best little by little.

In the end, Notts County comfortably took three points away from home and are unbeaten in the league so far.

Five days later, Notts County host their next league opponents, vice-league captain Glasby, and this game will be followed by a second-leg clash with Celtic.

This is considered by everyone to be the most suspenseful game, the leader of the league meets the vice-squad leader who dares to lose when he encounters anyone, and there is already a three-goal gap before the game starts, right?

Sure enough, the score in the first half of this game was exactly 3:0.

Alonso was given the chance to start this game and Loew clearly wants Alonso to spend more game time adjusting to the next big UEFA Cup game.

Alonso didn't disappoint either, as he showed his best form in midfield as a commander of the attacking team, not inferior to him before the injury, which gave Loew even more confidence.

Notts County, who won comfortably again, have already left Portsmouth in second place in the league table by as many as 18 points, you know, the league has only been played for 18 rounds, which is equivalent to a point in one round of games.

With this trend, who can stand in the way of Notts County's rush to the top?

Even if Notts County loses the League Cup in their next game, it cannot deny the success of Notts County this season, as long as they do not encounter a terrible crash, there will definitely be a place for Notts County in the Premier League next season. (To be continued.) )
