Chapter 55 Patchwork

The journey of the "Young Guard" this season has come to an end, but for Wang Tiezhu and Jonny Hausen, they are about to start another journey...... Euro Cup!

In England's two friendly matches with the Netherlands and Spain, Wang Tiezhu's performance can only be described as "amazing", and his presence is crucial in the tactics of the England team.

As for Jonny Hausen, this kid is thanks to Wang Tiezhu, he didn't perform well against the Netherlands, but when it came to the game against Spain, he played a surprising role, and the vitality that the Leeds captain brought to England's front line was spotted by Hodgson.

Amid the praise of the English media, the "Three Lions" began their first voyage under the leadership of Hodgson!

This time the England team's 23-man squad is not too surprising, the three goalkeepers are Joe Hart, Robert Green, Scott Carson, the defenders are Ashley Cole, Terry, Ferdinand, Glenn Johnson, Phil Jones, Gary Cahill, Richards, Layton Bynes eight, the midfield is Wang Tiezhu, Gerrard, Lampard, Jonny Hausen, Downing, Ashley Young, Hargreaves, Cleverley, Gareth Barry nine, the forward is only three. Rooney, Walcott and Darren Bent.

The England team's lineup is still quite luxurious, and this time Hodgson also gave up Lennon, Jagielka, James Minell, Carroll and other stars, his concept of building the team is different from Capello, and his focus is not only on this European Cup, but the World Cup two years later, at present, Wang Tiezhu, Jonny Hausen, Phil Jones and others in the England team are the objects of his key training, they will not be the protagonists of this European Cup, but Hodgson believes that two years later, Among these young people, there should be someone who will take the lead.

When the England team trained at the St George's Park training base again, Wang Tiezhu and Jonny Hausen were congratulated by everyone, and only two of them were from the English Champions League in the previous England team, and now everyone is finally from the super team.

"Hey, Shaq and Jonny, congratulations, you're going to start playing in the Super League next season!"

"Haha, Shaq and Jonny, isn't it time for you two to have a treat?"

"Shaq, Jonny, Leeds United also qualify for the Europa League next season, you have to perform well!"

"Shaq, Jonny, come to our Manchester City next season to play, with the strength of the two of you, the salary will definitely be several times more than what you are earning now!"

"Less! Shaq, Jonny, don't listen to their nonsense, Manchester City is just a nouveau riche, if you want to say that your strength should already be able to enter the giant team, our England giant team, our Manchester United is definitely the first choice! ”

"Less, Manchester United didn't win the league title this season, but we Manchester City had the last laugh!"

"Ha, have you forgotten our Blues? Shaq, Jonny, come to our Blues! ”

Before, these people were just greeting the two boys, and then Ferdinand, Joe Hart, Terry and others simply stood up and poached half-jokingly and half-seriously, but Walcott, Bynes, Gerrard, Downing and others didn't say anything, they knew their own affairs, and they simply didn't open their mouths.

"Gunners" Arsenal and "Reds" Liverpool are also considered giants, especially the "Reds" have a glorious past, but now the attraction of these two teams is still there, but compared with Manchester United, Manchester City, and Chelsea, it is really small, because ...... No money!

In recent years, the Super League championship is basically Manchester United, Chelsea, Manchester City, the "Gunners" have won the championship eight years ago, in the middle of which Manchester United and Chelsea take turns to sit as the champion, only this year's "Blue Moon" with strong financial resources with money to smash Manchester United in the last game, but the overall strength shown by Manchester City throughout the season is still worthy of this title.

Wang Tiezhu and Jonny Howson didn't take the invitation of these big brothers seriously, they just laughed and finished it, Wang Tiezhu was not satisfied with his current strength enough, and he didn't have the idea of jumping to the giants for the time being, but Jonny Howson was an out-and-out Leeds United diehard, his dream was to become a legend in the history of the "Young Guards", and one day it would be great if there was a stand named after him in the Elland Road stadium.

Before the England team officially went to Ukraine, it played two more friendly matches, namely the home game with the Brazilian team, and the away game with the Italian team, the Brazilians were invited by the English FA at the expense, and the Italian team took the initiative to find the England team to warm up, the new "Three Lions" were able to draw 1:1 with the Netherlands and beat the Spanish team 5:1, even if the Spanish team did not play that game very seriously, but it still shows that the new "Three Lions" has a certain strength, so it is also valued by Prandelli.

On May 27, England started a fierce battle with the visiting Brazilian team at their home stadium, and the two sides exchanged blanks for the entire 90 minutes of the game, Brazil coach Mano Menezes has been committed to reforming the Brazilian team after taking over the coaching whip from Dunga, and began to take a pragmatic route, and the Brazilian team's defense in this game is indeed solid, Wang Tiezhu, Rooney, Gerrard, Lampard, Walcott and others combined to complete 19 shots, but failed to score a goal.

In the fourth minute of stoppage time, the Brazilian seized the final corner of the game to find a draw after a fierce confrontation...... 1:0, it was this goal that gave the away Brazilian team the final victory.

After the game, Wang Tiezhu was a little depressed, seeing that the two skill points in his hand had become one, he felt uncomfortable in his heart, but the teammate's bonus skill points have now accumulated to 6 points, and it still has a lot of effect.

Hodgson didn't say anything about the loss in this game, but the old man felt that after the team won 5-1 against Spain, these boys were praised by the media, and it was a good thing to suffer such a dumb loss.

Three days later, on 30 May, England and Italy played without incidents, with both teams playing what they were going to practice and scoring in each half, with Frank Lampard opening the scoring with a sweeping strike in the 23rd minute of the first half and 'Bashen' equalising for Italy with a barb in the 71st minute.

After this match, England will travel to Ukraine, where they will play the opening match of the 14th European Championship with hosts Ukraine on 11 June after a 12-day break.

Although they are in Group A with the host Ukraine, the "Three Lions" really don't have much pressure, and the opponents in the same group are Belgium and Portugal in addition to Ukraine, as long as there is no ugly drama like the 2006 World Cup, England and Portugal are almost predictable to qualify from the group.

When Wang Tiezhu and Jonny Hausen started some lighter training with the England team in Ukraine, they also had time to pay attention to the movements of the "Young Guard" in the transfer market, and the result really made the two look at each other.

After winning the English FA Cup and the English Champions League, Ken Bates really did not break his promise, the stingy chairman played a big game this time, and once took out 30 million pounds to Simon Grayson to strengthen the team's strength, and Simon Grayson actually already had a goal, but Leeds United will be a new team in the Premier League this year, and the whole team needs to be rebuilt. During this time, it is also a time to throw money at the team, which can be said to be the most active team in the transfer market in recent times, with players joining almost every day.

Simon Grayson first poached 22-year-old young defender Dawson from West Ham United for £1.8 million, then Ireland international midfielder Glenn Wilan for £1.6 million from Stoke City, and then immediately bought David Bentley from Birmingham City for £1.2 million, and after spending £4.6 million, he went back and signed Sasa as a free Bosnian left-back.

Counting the Red, Whitehead, and Ameobi bought in the winter, Leeds United has also bought seven players before and after, and the overall appearance of the team is very different from when Wang Tiezhu first entered the first team.

But even so, the media in England still expressed concern about Leeds United, believing that Leeds United is a new army in the Super League after all, and it still takes some luck to rely on these patchwork people and the team's original "Leeds Three Musketeers" to succeed in relegation.

Simon Grayson still agrees with the media's evaluation, he knows the situation of his team best, and he can indeed go sideways in the English Championship, but when it comes to the Premier League, they are really struggling, and it is not so easy to succeed in relegation in the extremely competitive English Premier League.

And Simon Grayson himself admits that the current Leeds United recruitment is still not enough, but who is making him difficult at the moment?

Green Snowing, the assistant coach of the "Young Guard", was poached, but Simon Grayson couldn't stop it, because it wasn't any club that poached Green Snowing, but the Northern Ireland team invited him, and Simon Grayson could only shut up about his good partner's future even if he wanted to keep people.
