Li Chengfeng has been coaching in the CM world for 16 years, and he has won nearly 40 championships in total, and in terms of efficiency, only Guardiola, who has won 25 championships in 10 years of coaching, can be compared.

With Lee's current momentum, no one doubts that he can become the best coach in football history.

When it comes to honours, only Alex Ferguson, who has won 48 titles in his coaching career, is more than him.

In terms of tactical contributions, the tactics of the two giants in football now, the rapid advancement of high positions and strong pressure are improved and developed from Li Chengfeng.

As for the improvement and promoter of another major school, Pep Guardiola, the master of passing and control tactics, also admitted that in the process of forming his tactical concept, Li Chengfeng had a profound influence on him. Whether it was the discussion during his time as an assistant coach of Li Chengfeng or the communication after he became an independent coach, Li Chengfeng had a crucial influence on the formation and improvement of his passing and control play.

In terms of the development of football, not to mention the current second coach Pep Guardiola has also studied under him, and his other former assistant coach Maurizio Sarri is now doing well at Chelsea, and it is enough success to grab a Champions League place in such a competitive season and win the Europa League. Patrick Vieira, an assistant coach at Manchester City, enjoyed success in the MLS and returned to France last season to coach Nice, finishing eighth.

Even the current assistant coach has always been hooked up, but he has a white heart and resolutely chooses to stay, otherwise Li Chengfeng will have to worry about finding a new assistant coach.

In the first title of the new season, the 2019 England Charity Shield, Leeds United successfully defeated Manchester City, and Li Chengfeng also increased his tally of titles to 40.

Leeds United's win over Manchester City was not a big surprise, but it was a surprise that Leeds beat Manchester City's passing in this defeat.

Facing the Manchester City of Pep Guardiola, Li Chengfeng unexpectedly also commanded Leeds United to play the pass control in this game, and the effect was also surprisingly good. But it's not so hard to understand when you think about it, the Leeds United players themselves have such qualities, solid basic skills, excellent passing, outstanding awareness, Li Chengfeng paid attention to these when selecting materials, and he is tougher and has better physical fitness. Of course, what is more crucial is the growth of Mbappe, so that he can support this set of tactics like Messi in the past.

"Is there anything strange about me passing on the control? I used this set more than a decade ago when I was on Sheffield Wednesday. Li Chengfeng expressed disdain for the media's surprise, "It's just that this system is too much about player allocation, and I didn't have the conditions to implement it before." ”

"Now Mbappe is mature enough, he's like a combination of Cristiano Ronaldo and Messi. Last year's Ballon d'Or was just a starting point, and he will have more of them. I want to be able to develop him into the best player in the world, the best in history. ”

Of course, Li Chengfeng is exaggerating to say this, but this does not prevent him from boasting about Mbappe so much. He just did this in the hope that Mbappe could stay in the team with peace of mind, and that honor was more important than money. In addition, Mbappe's success will only bring more benefits to Leeds United, if nothing else, if Mbappe can win the Ballon d'Or this year, although Leeds United will pay more, but the increase in commercial income will be several times higher.

If Mbappe can reach Ronaldo's commercial value in the future, Li Chengfeng will be worth it even if he gives him a weekly salary of 500,000 pounds, which is what he thinks.

As for the contracts like Ronaldo and Messi who are now getting a weekly salary of more than one million pounds, Li Chengfeng doesn't think anyone is worthy of this salary, otherwise how could Real Madrid not renew the contract with Ronaldo, and Messi's contract has also become a huge burden for Barcelona. They're still a members-only club, so there's no pressure to make money.

Some people are also curious about which achievement he is most proud of in Li Chengfeng's heart, and Li Chengfeng chose the Champions League champion without hesitation.

Li Chengfeng's words were addressed to Guardiola on the side. Pep Guardiola's Manchester City are Leeds United's biggest rivals in the Premier League, and their consistency in the league makes Li Chengfeng find it tricky, especially when Guardiola values the league more than the Champions League, and Leeds United wants to be distracted from the Champions League.

Li Chengfeng also had to use some psychological tactics, hoping that Guardiola can focus more on the Champions League, so that Leeds United will be more sure in the competition in the Premier League. Li Chengfeng is not sure whether it will have any effect, but there should be some effect. Li Chengfeng led Manchester City to win the Champions League three times in a row, and has already imprinted the success of the Champions League in the hearts of the team. In the midst of such fierce competition, even the slightest change is very important.

It proved to be effective, with Pep Guardiola clearly affected by his desire to prove that he could also achieve results in the Champions League, but he was unable to overcome his tactical flaws and left for Italy after losing the Champions League for two years in a row.

However, Leeds United have not been able to continue their success in reaching consecutive Champions League finals, failing to reach the final for the second year in a row. Although Pep Guardiola put more effort into the Champions League, he did not make a breakthrough either, leaving him to focus on the league and win a league title with Leeds United.

However, Liverpool knew they could not compete with Leeds United and Manchester City in the league, so they focused on the Champions League and snatched a Champions League title.

With Pep Guardiola's departure, though, this year's situation is different. Manchester City is still strong without Guardiola, and Guardiola has left behind a stable system, at least still very competitive in the league, but after all, there is a decline, and the challenge is much smaller than before Leeds United. As for Jurgen Klopp's Liverpool, the consistency is even worse, and they are not as challenging as Manchester City.

As a result, Leeds United were able to establish an early advantage in the league and finally had their hands free to once again attack the multi-title title at the same time.

He raised his championship tally to 49, the same number as Ferguson. He also has a chance to surpass Alex Ferguson and claim world number one honours this season, as long as he can lead Leeds United to a Champions League final victory over Real Madrid.

But do you really want to do it? Li Chengfeng was a little hesitant. Li Chengfeng is certainly hoping to add a heavyweight champion to his honor room, before knowing that break.

Just as he was leading Leeds United to FA Cup glory, the long-lost system that he had almost forgotten existed reminded him that if he won one more title, he could surpass Alex Ferguson as the first manager.

"The day you become the best manager, that's when my mission is over and you can go back to your normal life."

However, is it really necessary to give up everything in the CM world? Although Li Chengfeng is troubled by the large amount of energy that needs to be consumed in the two worlds, both worlds already have concerns, and even the life of the CM world is better and difficult to give up.

However, the unreal is only the unreal after all, and no matter how real it is, it will not become a reality. Although Li Chengfeng is reluctant, he also knows this. It's just that he's starting to wonder if his experiences in the real world are real, and when he returns to the real world, will he be the Birmingham head coach with multiple clubs, or will he find that he woke up with someone who has just quit his job and is ready to start a new life?

He has some gains and losses, maybe it is more comfortable to stay in the CM world and daydream, without having to face the troubles of the real world.

As long as you don't win the championship in the future, you can stay. Li Chengfeng looked at the game that was still stalemate on the field, a little entangled, it was difficult to win, but it was very simple to lose.

But he couldn't get out of that after all, the pursuit of victory was already an instinct engraved in his bones, and he was not willing to give up any chance to win the championship.

Li Chengfeng replaced the teenager Pellegri and added a frontcourt fulcrum. Real Madrid's renewal in the post-Ronaldo era is still flawed, their front line has been successful, but the back is still somewhat lacking, except for Wanella, there are no world-class defensive players, and more weaknesses are exposed in the second half of the physical decline.

Leeds United stepped up their attack and broke the deadlock on the pitch, and Zidane's metaphysics could not change the gap in the team's strength.

In the end, Leeds United won the Champions League again, which was also Li Chengfeng's 50th title, allowing him to get out of the system and return to the real world title.

Li Chengfeng is also very excited to be able to achieve his goal with such a heavyweight champion, but if he had known that he would return like this, why did he toss at Leeds United? Staying at Manchester City honestly, I am afraid that I can return to reality a few years earlier.

"Can't you come in in the future?" Before returning, Li Chengfeng asked about the system.

"Illusion is illusion after all."

"Then is the real world I have seen over the years real or illusory."

"Do you want it to be real or unreal?"

Li Chengfeng didn't know whether the time of the past 20 years was important or the accumulation of these years was more important. Money or life, it seems to be a philosophical question.

But I have to face it all after all, no matter what the outcome. Li Chengfeng closed his eyes and whispered "goodbye". He didn't know what kind of life he would face when he woke up, but he was ready and had the confidence to face whatever the situation was. Although the CM world is just a dream, his heart has become extremely resilient because of this experience, and he believes that no matter what the circumstances he faces, he can do better than before.
