Chapter 81: Remembered by a Thief!
Chapter 81 is remembered by thieves!
Simon Grayson doesn't know how effective the mobilization meeting he gave the players is, but he really did his best, he told his players in detail about all the stakes, but the heart is separated from the belly, and he is not a roundworm in the player's stomach, so he naturally doesn't know what the players' minds are.
Leeds United trained well in the next three days, finally reassuring Simon Grayson, the third round of the Europa League group stage is about to start, Leeds United this time is at home to Fenerbahce, Simon Grayson does not care much about the outcome of this game, he just hopes that his team can regain morale and get more points in the next English Premier League.
In the past three days, by staying on the training ground and observing the players in person, Simon Grayson has also figured out the state of his players.
In general, these players are divided into three categories, the largest of which is a group of players such as Jonny Hausen, Zach Thompson, and Ben Parker, who have no intention of leaving for various reasons, and are still conscientious in training.
The second category is Ameobi, Snodgrass, Beccio, these players whose fame has just come out to attract the attention of other teams, their previous performance was not very good and there was little team attention, and now they have played in Leeds United, and another team has become interested in them, but they themselves are hesitant to leave.
In the third category, there is only one "beast" Tevez, although the Argentine striker has been very happy at Leeds United and his form has reached the peak of his career, but because of this, Tevez has been determined to continue to play his good form this season, and then jump back to other big teams at a higher price.
Whether it is the first or third type of players, their state is very good, only the second type of players who are hesitating in their hearts, this is the headache of Simon Grayson, these players are not weak in the team and can basically play the main team, they are hesitating between going and staying, which will lead to the overall state of the team decline.
Although Simon Grayson has endless troubles in his heart, the Europa League game still came as scheduled, and it was only at this time that he realized that he really underestimated the strength of his team, and now the "Young Guards" are really a strong team, even if they are not in the best state now, their fighting power is still strong.
Of course, Simon Grayson also didn't know that there was a powerful big hand behind his back to push Leeds United forward, "Shaq" is not just a player, Zach Thompson's "black foot" system now has 29 teammates bonus skill points, he really has some ability to control the game, maybe when Leeds United against the big teams, he can't control the game, but against Turkey's Fenerbahce, a team that has declined, is still enough.
On October 25th, Leeds United defeated visiting Fenerbahce 4-0 at Elland Road Stadium, Leeds United's overall performance in this game was not very good, but with Tevez and Zach Thompson both scoring twice, they still won 4-0.
The game was played in the rain, and just five minutes into the game, Tevez "The Beast" received a precise through pass from Zach Thompson, used his speed to counter offside, and scored a goal on his own.
At 10 minutes, Ameobi headed the ball to Tevez, and the Argentine striker scored again in front of the six-yard box, and the score became 2:0!
After these two goals were scored, the tone of the game was completely set, and Fenerbahce, who were playing away, had no chance of turning the tables around.
With 44 minutes played, Zach Thompson received the ball from Tevez on the baseline and fired a volley into the net.
Leeds United, who had a three-goal lead, relaxed as they played, and on 54 minutes of the second half, Zach Thompson fired a stunning long-range shot from 35 yards out, and after seeing the opposition goalkeeper's position, he curled a ball with his left foot, which bypassed the goalkeeper and hung into the top left corner of the Fenerbahce goal!
After the goal, Zach Thompson raised his arms high, and in the Elland Road stadium, the Leeds United irons who watched the game in the rain worshiped him frantically, in the hearts of the most loyal fans of these Leeds United, now "Shaq" is already a more important player than captain Jonny Hausen, because "Shak" football talent can really only be described by the word "genius", and because of Zach Thompson's excellent performance in the "Three Lions", he has become the pride of Leeds fans.
After winning all three games in the Europa League group stage, Leeds United is in a good situation to qualify, and Simon Grayson has begun to go all out to prepare for the eighth round of the Premier League with Sunderland in three days.
Although Tottenham Hotspur has won the rematch with Stoke City 3-0, it also makes Tottenham Hotspur led by Portuguese "little madman" Villas-Boas squeeze Leeds United into the second place in the standings by one point.
However, Simon Grayson is still desperate for this game against Sunderland, because this is the last game before Leeds United enter the devil's schedule to earn points, and Simon Grayson does not dare to expect his team to continue to score points in the three games away to Arsenal, home to Liverpool and away to Chelsea.
At the pre-match press conference on the 27th, Simon Grayson announced his team's starting lineup, and in the interview with many reporters from Sky Sports, The Mirror, The Guardian, as well as Goal and Teamtalk, he made a high-profile claim: "The frequent schedule makes this game very difficult for us, but as long as we play well enough, we can win this game!" ”
Simon Grayson not only showed his determination to win externally, but also gave the team a must-kill order at the pre-game meeting the next morning: "Boys, you already know the team's schedule, I'm glad to see that the team has picked up a lot of points in recent times, and we have a high position in the standings!" However, against Sunderland, this will be the last league game in which we can easily pick up points, and then we will face big teams like Arsenal, Chelsea, Liverpool, it will be a devil's schedule for the team, but for each and every one of you, it will be an opportunity for you to prove yourself completely! Sunderland are now in 11th place and we are in second place, so ...... I can't think of any reason why we shouldn't win this game! Take Sunderland, then let's talk to those giants in the best condition, show your courage and confidence, and let's fight to the death with these giants! What do you think? You guys...... Do you dare? ”
"Dare!"
Simon Grayson still has control over the team he has built single-handedly, and many players have responded to him, but he is still a little dissatisfied and raises his hand to his ear and makes a gesture of closing the voice: "I didn't hear it!" Be louder! ”
"Dare!"
This time, even Tevez gave face, and then shouted, "The Beast" is still grateful to Simon Grayson and Leeds United in his heart, if it weren't for his agent encouraging him to leave, Tevez would have wanted to stay in Leeds United, after all, not every team will give him privileges, now Tevez is at the heart of Leeds United's attack, and he can choose to shoot or pass at will after taking the ball on the field, and even Simon Grayson will not make a hard name for Tevez at all, If you are ten or twenty minutes late for training, you will not be criticized, as long as you give a reason, it will be over.
This feeling of freedom is something that other teams can't give to the "beast", and even Tevez himself feels that it is because of the manager's indulgence and trust in himself that he has regained his best self, he really can't stand the strict constraints, and the talented players of Argentina need to exude the wild factor in their bodies in order to truly show their football talent.
After coming to Leeds United this season, Tevez is completely invincible with the help of Zach Thompson's teammates to add skill points, scoring 20 goals in 7 league games, and in his three years at Manchester City, the first two years of his best form were only 23 and 21 goals respectively, but that is already a whole year of goals, except for these two seasons, whether it is in Manchester United, West Ham United, or in Boca, Clinthian, he has never scored more than 20 league goals in any season!
In addition to his 20 league goals, Tevez has also scored three Europa League goals, one League Cup goal and one Community Shield goal for Leeds United this season.
Because no one knows about Zach Thompson, the hero behind the scenes, the outside world agrees that "The Beast" Tevez has such a crazy scoring frenzy, which is definitely the right thing to coach Simon Grayson, who is definitely qualified to be at the helm of a big team in the future.
Coach Leeds' achievements in leading the team are already very remarkable, and he has trained young talents such as "Shaq", Jonny Hausen and Ben Parker, and can return Tevez to the top, so that a 31-year-old veteran like Ameobi can find his youth again, and this coaching ability is really world-class.
Ameobi scored 15 goals in 21 games after moving to Leeds United last winter, and seven goals in eight games for the Young Defenders in the Premier League this season, which really speaks volumes about Simon Grayson's managerial ability.
Therefore, Simon Grayson's coaching performance is actually seen by many big teams, and they are also considering whether the previously unknown head coach is suitable for their team, but they have not made a statement.
The current Leeds United team, from the players to the manager, and even the football club are rumored to be acquired, and they are really coveted from top to bottom.
