Carl Robinson could hear Hyypia's temptation, but he didn't mind.

Sheffield United are at the top of the table by seven points, and it's never a secret ingredient, so even if Hyypia's Blackpool are their closest team, Carl Robinson doesn't see anything to hide. What's more, what he is talking about now is only Cambridge United.

"That's not the point." Carl Robinson said, "One or two games don't say anything. ”

"So?" Hyypia, who asked knowingly, asked.

Of course, one or two games can't explain anything, don't think that Cambridge United is approaching the play-off zone after two consecutive wins, and it seems that it will be all of a sudden, but in fact, as long as Cambridge United is a little careless, they will be beaten back to their original form immediately, because behind Cambridge United, there are more than two or three teams in a game behind them.

Therefore, it is in response to the sentence: the cup tests the soft power of a team, and the league tests the hard power of a team. The former requires a little luck, but the latter is the root of stability.

"Don't you think the average age of the Cambridge United first team is unusually low?" Carl Robinson said.

"It's a little bit." Hearing Robinson's words, Hyypia thought for a moment and nodded, "But it doesn't seem to be a problem, after all, League One is not the Premier League, and Cambridge United is not the team with the lowest average age of 10 in the league." ”

"Of course." Robinson laughed, "However, there is definitely no team with such a young main lineup." ”

Hyypia understood what Robinson meant, which seems to be the reason why Robinson was bullish on Cambridge United. As he said, Cambridge United are indeed the youngest team in League One at the moment, and there are outstanding youngsters in all three lines. However, even so, Hyypia still doesn't think this is enough to make Robinson think so highly of Cambridge United, and League One is, in a sense, just a place for high-level teams to train young people. Many teams have a lot of young people who are the leading players.

So, he also smiled and said, "You are very optimistic about those young people of Cambridge United? ”

"It's not just bullish." Robinson bowed slightly, "If these youngsters can maintain this kind of performance, I think even if they can't this season, Cambridge United will be the favourites for promotion next season." To be honest, I'm getting the urge to poach people. ”

When it came to the last sentence, Robinson's tone was a little joking, but at this time. Hyypia's heart moved.

Hyypia doesn't think Cambridge United can really be promoted in two seasons, as Robinson claims, but he agrees with Robinson's optimism about Cambridge United's youngsters, especially striker George. You know, the problem of the forward line is also the problem that is currently plaguing Blackpool. If......

Looking at Hyypia's appearance, Robinson didn't know what he was thinking at this time, and he couldn't help but sneer a little in his heart.

A year ago, Blackpool, who had reached the Premier League in previous seasons, would certainly have the right to look down on Cambridge United, who were in the lower leagues, and even as Hyypia thinks now. It's not uncommon to hit the other party with an idea, and the success rate will be high, but it's different now. Cambridge United now, and a year ago, is a world of difference.

However, Robinson will not remind the other party not to be bored. On the contrary, isn't that why he brings up this time today? ――

Tang Hua thought about the situation that his players might be poached, after all. It's part of a manager's job. It's just that he thinks he needs to "guard" in the direction that should be a team in the higher leagues, but just today, he received an offer.

An offer for George.

This offer of only 500,000 yuan may not be worth mentioning in the top league, but it cannot be regarded as insincere in League One, and what surprised Tang Hua was not the size of the offer, but the offer, which came from Blackpool in the same league.

As we all know, the first meeting between Cambridge United and Blackpool this season ended in a victory for Cambridge United, but this upset actually happened after the game, that is, Hyypia left without shaking hands with Tang Hua after the game.

It's not like Hyypia forgot about it, there is a reason for it.

The reason for this was the goal that allowed Cambridge United to beat Blackpool, and Hyypia thought Cambridge United were offside. At that time, the goal that occurred at the last moment of the game caused great dissatisfaction among the players on the Blackpool field, but it was a boat, and in the end they lost the game because of this goal, as for the goal is not really offside, although there is a live broadcast of the game, but the English League is not the Premier League, where to find so many angle replays, so until now, whether the ball is offside or not is still a mystery.

Interestingly, it was none other than George, who was now being offered by Blackpool, who scored the suspected offside goal.

Thinking of this, Tang Hua was a little dumbfounded, or it was precisely because of this that Blackpool's offer was so "one-step".

Without asking the price, without probing, or even without warning, Blackpool made such an offer, which was already good in League One, for a young man under 20 years old. It's just that in the face of this seemingly good offer, Tang Hua treated it as a joke, and also did not make a counteroffer or give any reason, Tang Hua directly gave the other party a simple and clear no.

If this offer is from the Premier League, he may still be a little worried that the player will not be able to resist the temptation, but for Blackpool, who are also in the first division, although they are currently second in the league, Tang Hua does not take the other party too seriously. So, he quickly put the matter behind him and put all his thoughts on Everton, Cambridge United's next opponents.

This is also the second Premier League team Tang Hua has encountered since he joined Cambridge United.

On January 14, in the third round of the FA Cup, Cambridge United welcomed their strongest opponent of the season, Everton, and Linson once again appeared in the stands of the full Abbe Stadium, but Cambridge United fans have begun to get used to it. This big man who used to be out of reach in their eyes has now become a figure they can see from time to time in the stands.

Lin Sen is not here to supervise the battle today, but only to watch the battle.

The reason is simple, Cambridge United vs Everton, even at home. I'm afraid not many people think that Cambridge United can really replicate last year's draw with Manchester United.

However, as soon as the game began, Cambridge United gave the home fans a surprise, taking advantage of Everton's unstable foothold, Stam made a long pass in the backfield, Xiao Zhixing made a kick, George went to the meeting alone, and the American goalkeeper Howard, who has been with Everton for nearly ten seasons, was beyond his reach. The score became 1-0, and Cambridge United, playing at home, took the lead.

And from that goal, the game fell into Everton's rhythm.

For Lin Sen. He still subconsciously thinks that this team is not a difficult team to deal with, but it is obvious that Cambridge United in the stadium at this time is not the Manchester City team he was under back then. For Cambridge United, Everton, which is no longer worth mentioning in Linson's eyes, is still a giant for them.

After the goal, Cambridge United actually had no intention of shrinking down there, however, in the face of Everton, who fought back wildly, the gap between the Premier League and League One was in the eyes of Cambridge United fans in the stands. It was still as if it had been placed under a magnifying glass, suddenly so big and so clear.

Everton had double-digit shots on goal throughout the first half, while Cambridge United had no exception for that one-on-one goal. No more chance. This situation, after halftime adjustments, has not improved. Facing Everton, who lead in strength and experience in all aspects, Cambridge United can only hope for the favor of Lady Luck. Counting on keeping the one-goal lead until the end.

The fans' hopes are always optimistic, but Lin Sen in the stands knows that this hope is not realistic.

Cambridge United relied on their luck to hold on to a 1-0 advantage until the end. Of course, this is possible, but it is not very likely for Cambridge United at the moment. Not all 1-0 victories can be called narrow wins, and not all victories won by shrinking back and defending can be attributed to luck, and there is an essential difference between stealing one and seizing the opportunity to steal one.

In the former, it all depends on luck, while in the latter, luck only occupies a small weight. In this game, Cambridge United opened with a sneak attack, which may be what Tang Hua wants, but the next game is obviously not something that Tang Hua can control, not that he has no plan, but that the difference in strength between the two teams has exceeded the scope of his control.

Coming to this conclusion, it is naturally not Lin Sen's experience, but real game data.

In Lin Sen's eyes, the Cambridge United team on the field at this time is actually not so complicated, whether it is offensive or defensive. There are only two people to look at on the offensive point, one is Xiao Zhixing, the other is George, for example, the goal scored by Cambridge United in this game is the result of the tacit understanding between these two. Again, there are only two people to look at defensively, one is Colin and the other is Stam.

Colin's presence has proven to be decisive in Cambridge United's midfield defence, which has now become the heart of Cambridge United's defence.

However, in this game, Colin failed to play his due role as usual, of course, this is not to blame him, you know, in this game, he faced one of the best young players in the country, Barkley, his job is trembling, naturally he can't talk about helping others, and without his tandem and defense, Cambridge United's midfield defensive intensity is instantly less than half. Chain reaction, the lack of midfield protection of the backline, directly exposed to the opposition fire.

In this case, Cambridge United have been able to maintain their lead until this point, and they need to thank the goalpost for helping twice, but how many times can you count on the goalpost to help in a game?

Sure enough, in the 75th minute of the second half, Everton equalized, and the scorer was none other than Barkley in Collin's defense. Three minutes later, Everton were back in the picture, and it was Ross Barkley again, with the assist he provided for the Belgian new monster Romelu Lukaku to head home.

1-0 became 1-2, just a goal difference, but Cambridge United was powerless. (To be continued......)
