Chapter 120: Possession of the Decaying God

Although the "Young Guard" is only 2 points behind the "Gunners" Arsenal with one game less, Simon? Grayson still has no title sights set on his side, and he will be content to qualify for next season's Champions League, with Leeds United and fifth-placed Manchester City just one point up at the moment.

And on top of that, Leeds United will face three strong opponents in a row in just 11 days, and play four games, including a second league meeting with Liverpool and Chelsea, as well as a two-legged Europa League quarter-final against Serie A giants Inter Milan.

These four games are definitely the four games related to Leeds United's final results this season, after this hurdle, Leeds United is only a strong opponent in the league, Tottenham Hotspur, and the Europa League is where it goes, after all, an opponent like Inter Milan is already very difficult for Leeds United to beat.

In England, Leeds United is indeed not afraid of anyone, but this is also because they are more familiar with these opponents, they have never eaten pork and watched pig runs, Manchester United, Manchester City, Arsenal, Chelsea, Tottenham Hotspur, Liverpool, which of these teams has not been thoroughly studied?

But for outside of England...... Leeds United is not familiar with anyone, they played well in the Europa League group stage, and it was not too difficult to play Bayer Leverkusen, which is also because they put themselves in the initiative, but against the king of Europe three years ago, even if it is a declining king of Europe, Leeds United does not have the slightest confidence, but Simon? In an interview with the Italian newspaper "Milan Sport", Grayson was still very brave to express his desire for victory.

'I know Inter Milan are a great team, they have won a lot of honours, but my team and I are also hungry for wins and I believe that the young Stramaccioni still lacks some experience and this will be our chance.'

Stramaccioni, the former youth coach of Inter Milan, who replaced Agnelli at the end of last season, has worked very hard this season, but due to the limitations of experience and personal ability, he still can't lead Inter Milan to Juventus and AC Milan in Italy, of course, this is also related to Moratti's reduction of investment, and there are even rumors that Moratti is going to sell Inter Milan, and this respectable old man is already planning to leave.

Simon? Grayson really said what he thought in his heart, but what he got was the ridicule of "Milan Sport", although in Italy "Milan Sport" is only the mouthpiece of AC Milan, they are all kinds of black to Inter Milan, but when dealing with the unexpected team in Italy, this muzzle is still the same.

"Premier League promoted Malize United were lucky to reach the quarter-finals of the Europa League, which made Simon? Grayson became arrogant, saying that his team would have a chance to beat Inter Milan, which was a big joke. Inter Milan captain Javier? Zanetti hasn't retired yet, and even if this team is only led by a young manager like Stramaccioni, they are still fighting power! Leeds United? Ha, ha, ha! ”

Sneered at by the Milan Sport newspaper, Simon? Grayson didn't make any counterattack, no amount of spit can make the team win, he is now just single-mindedly leading the team to prepare for the game against the "Reds" Liverpool.

Although Leeds United was held to a 0:0 draw at home to Liverpool, and the bookmaker is also looking down on the "Young Guards" this time, Leeds United's current situation is still very good. Oliveira has been thoroughly integrated into the team, and the Portuguese also understands the team's overall tactics, in fact, it is very simple to say, that is, everyone plays around "Shaq", unless there is a chance to shoot, no matter when, after getting the ball, you must first consider passing the ball to "Shaq", even if it is passed to other teammates, you must pay attention to the position of "Shaq", so as to be able to play the various tactics practiced in training.

However, the Portuguese have no objection to the head coach's arrangement at all, the boss of the "swordsman group" is really not covered, don't look at the age, but this person's ability is really comprehensive and makes people jealous, what attack, defense, shooting, organization and other kinds of work, almost everything, all kinds of fine, and even he has the same feeling as other teammates, "Shaq" should be able to play all positions on the field except the goalkeeper.

In addition to the team's undisputed core "Shaq", Nelson is also very clear about the gap between himself and "The Beast" Tevez, he was bought by Leeds United not to score goals, but to allow him to play the role of a tactical center, so he must not fire indiscriminately on the field, Leeds United's ** right to fire even captain Jonny? There were no hausen, only the two "beasts" and "shaq" could do it.

The smooth comeback of "Big Black" Ameobi, or does it make Nelson? Oliveira felt a glimmer of crisis, but Simon? Grayson had a conversation with him, and told Nelson very clearly that his position will not change for the time being, Ameobi is old after all, and the Portuguese talent is the future of the team, but this must first be based on his hard work.

After seeing the team's hopes of winning the title, and knowing that the goal is to at least retain a top-four place in order to qualify for next season's Champions League, Leeds United's morale is rising and the morale of this young team is simply fearless, most of them are young and in their infancy, and this is also the time when a professional player is at his hardest and most motivated.

Just when the Thorpe Arch training base was thriving and the team's prospects were promising, a big event happened for Leeds United............

During the training session on April 5, the team's captain Jonny? Haosen actually strained his left ** muscle, which is his main leg, and the strain made him unable to get up when he was running, and he would feel the pain of ** when he broke out slightly.

At this time, there are only two days left before Leeds United will challenge the "Reds" away on April 7, and there is only one day left before Leeds United depart for Liverpool.

The captain's injury at this time was simply fatal for Leeds United, and even the team's most relied on "Leeds Three Musketeers" left-wing attacking system fell apart as a result, and there is no one in the Leeds team who can compare to Jonny? Haosen's ability to break through is stronger.

Simon? Grayson couldn't help but smile helplessly after knowing the diagnosis that his captain would be out of action for at least three weeks, it seems that the good luck of Leeds United is really going to be jealous!

This season, Leeds United can soar mainly because of their sharp attack, in the first 29 rounds of the English Premier League they have scored 99 goals, the last game with Manchester City after they broke the "Red Devils" Manchester United in the 1999 ~ 2000 season set a record of 97 goals, now they are continuing to refresh their own record with their strong attacking power, scoring 100 goals is not difficult.

If it weren't for the team's lack of defensive strength, Leeds United would really be able to compete for the title, but captain Jonny? Hausen's injury caused a great damage to the team's attacking power, so that the "Young Guard" was damaged before they could play against their opponents.

The most important thing is that among the three teams that have not been able to let Leeds United score this season, there is the "Red Army" Liverpool, and the other two teams are the "Gunners" Arsenal and the "Red Devils" Manchester United.

Johnny? Hausen is injured, and Simon, the captain's replacement? Grayson is not worried, Shaq is his second captain, Ben? Parker is the third captain, and the three captains of the "Young Guard" are the "Leeds Three", who were also the leaders who led the team forward.

There is no need to worry about it on the mental level, but not on the technical level, Simon? Grayson is ready to replace his captain with De Grass, after all, although the Scotsman's breakthrough ability is unfortunate, but the skill is quite comprehensive.

But that afternoon to Shaq, DeGrass, Ben? When Parker and the three practiced the routine, the Scots picked up Zach on the wing? Thompson's diagonal pass was a little slower, and he tried to hook the ball hard, but the ball still went off the sideline, but he twisted his left ankle himself, and in a matter of minutes, he was swollen with a steamed bun.

“**！ It's all **is**! ”

Eric? Blake swore he heard Simon clearly? Grayson's expletives.

Simon with a gloomy face? Grayson didn't dare to train anymore, so he directly arranged for the Swedish teenager Philip? Pivkowski played on the left, Tevez "The Beast" played on the right, and Ameobi "Black Big" played with Nelson? Oliveira played as a striker together.

After making this arrangement, Simon? Grayson held a tactical meeting for the team, and the team's tactics really have to be adjusted now. Parker has never cooperated with each other, so I have to talk about it, right?

Nelson? There is no tacit understanding between Oliveira and Ameobi, so I have to talk about it, right?

Letting Tevez play on the right side is a helpless move, which is equivalent to giving up 50% of the "beast's" scoring ability, and the team going to Anfield to challenge Liverpool seems to have to be arranged, right?

A whole bunch of worries to make Simon? Grayson had a sense of foreboding, as if a dark cloud was looming over Leeds United............

Yesterday's 10+1 made the fat man add three more, and today ...... Will +? It's the end of the month, it's the end of the year, so don't hide it if you have a monthly pass, right? Who is not more than a year old? Hey hey~~~~~~~~ (To be continued.) )
