No. [042] round: Burnley team full of confidence
Burnley's centre-back Stephen 61 Caldeville said in an interview with the media: "The Birmingham team is very strong, but we are not weak either. Their attacking power is good, but we are confident that we can intercept their attacks, and this is our home stadium, so we are confident that we can win the game. ”
The media reporter naturally mentioned Birmingham's Wonder Dongfangchen, who scored a hat-trick in the previous round.
Burnley's centre-back Stephen 61 Caldeville said: "We don't know much about this player, but he hasn't had any decent looks before, especially at Manchester United for so long, he can be said to have no appearance, we feel that their quality should be limited, we are confident that we will keep an eye on him and leave him without a chance." ”
It can be seen that the players of the Burnley team are really very confident to win this game.
Burnley's main striker Martin 61 Thompson also said in an interview with media reporters: "Birmingham are now the top team in the Championship, and their quality is undoubted. But their backline is not without holes, I've watched their games and what kind of problems they have at the back, I know all about it, and I'm confident that I'm going to be able to break down their goals. ”
Martin 61 Thompson was brought in from Scunthorpe by Burnley for £1 million this summer, and the transfer fee is more than that, Burnley will have to pay Scunthorp an additional £300,000 after a certain number of appearances. And when Burnley sells Martin 61 Thompson, Scunthorpe will also receive a 20 percent resale share.
It can be said that Burnley spent a lot of money to bring in Martin 61 Thompson. This guy has also been very good since joining the team, scoring five goals in ten rounds and is the biggest reliance on Burnley's forward line.
It can be seen that Martin 61 Thompson is very confident in scoring the goal of the Birmingham team.
At this time, the media reporter naturally mentioned the Birmingham wonder Dongfang Chen, who scored a hat-trick in the last round.
The media reporters said: "Dongfang Chen scored a hat-trick in the last round of the game, and he will be relied on by the Birmingham team in this round, and it is said that he is very confident of scoring again. What are your thoughts on this? ”
Martin 61 Thompson said: "Dongfang Chen? Is this the Manchester United outcast? I talked to Chris, and he said that Dongfang Chen's strength was not outstanding, and he never showed the corresponding strength when he was in Manchester United, so he was sold. I'm convinced I'm not going to lose to this guy and I'm going to let him know what a striker looks like in this game! ”
Martin 61 Thompson's Chris, also brought in by Burnley this summer, his name is Chris 61 Eagles, from Manchester United.
Chris 61 Eagles joined Manchester United very early, debuting in the Manchester United academy, and Ferguson was very optimistic about this kid. However, United's midfield was too strong for Eagles to stay at the Reds and left the club this summer to join Burnley.
Hearing Martin 61 Thompson stab, the media reporters at the scene were excited, and now there is finally a topic again, Martin 61 Thompson did not take Dongfang Chen in his eyes at all, which will become a highlight of this game.
Of course, the reporters also know that if Dongfang Chen hears such remarks, he will definitely be very unconvinced, and the two will definitely be more energetic, in that case, won't their media reporters be able to take advantage of the fisherman?
Afterwards, Burnley midfielder Chris 61 Eagles also spoke to the media, saying: "Birmingham are very strong and this game will be very difficult for us. But we'll give it our all and win this game. ”
Eagles also said: "I am also very happy that Dongfang Chen can have such a performance, congratulations to him, and hope that he can continue to have such a performance." Of course, in this game we will defend him tightly and we will not let him score because we want to win the game. ”
Eagles wasn't as aggressive as Martin 61 Thompson, but he still expressed a lot of confidence that they could win the game.
Afterwards, Burnley's manager Owen 61 Coyle also spoke to the media, saying: "We know Birmingham well again, we have information on every game they play, they are our biggest opponents on the way to the top and we have to know him very well. ”
Coyle added: "We are very well prepared for this game and we have reason to believe we can beat Birmingham City at home and get the three points. It's a very crucial game for promotion and we have to win it. ”
Naturally, the media reporter asked Coyle what he thought of the sudden emergence of Dongfang Chen in the Birmingham team.
Coyle said: "I don't know this player very well, but if he can score a hat-trick against Queens Park Rangers, it shows that he has a certain quality and we don't take him lightly, we have to be careful because we can't afford to lose! ”
Koyle's words tell how serious Burnley are about this game and they are confident of victory. At the same time, they are very cautious, they know how powerful Birmingham is, and they do not prevent accidents from happening.
Knowing this, the media reporters agree that it will be a very exciting game, and it will be the highlight of this round of the Championship.
Burnley are very serious about this game, and Birmingham are also very serious about this game.
Although the Birmingham team did not give any interviews to any media reporters, it just shows how seriously the Birmingham team take this game. They don't want to let these things affect their preparation for this game, which they can't afford to lose.
Birmingham will be playing away from home, so the Birmingham team left Birmingham a day earlier and went to Lancashire in the north-west of England to prepare for the game against Burnley.
It was only after arriving at Burnley that the Birmingham team gave an interview to the media, but it was the Birmingham head coach McLeish who was interviewed, and the Birmingham players still did not accept interviews from the media.
At this time, the media reporters learned that McLeish was strict in governing the army.
Speaking to the media, McLeish praised Burnley, saying: "Burnley have brought in some very good players this summer, and they can even play in the Super League, so their goal is obvious. ”
"But our goal this year is also clear, we want to get back into the Premier League this season, we don't give up every game and we give it our all to win every game," McLeish said. Because we are not much better than any team in the Championship, we have to fight for the opponent and we have a chance to win. ”
Hearing McLeish's words, the following media reporters shouted in their hearts: "Mr. McLeish, you are humble, if Birmingham is not strong, can he be at the top of the league?" ”
McLeish continued: 'It's an away game and we have to be cautious because we can't give Burnley any chances, so we're going to play with a defensive formation and hopefully get out of the stadium. ”
The reporter below couldn't believe McLeish's words, did Birmingham come to Lancashire just to get a draw? Isn't this a clear deception?
The media reporter naturally asked Dongfang Chen's question, who is called Dongfang Chen, this guy has been very popular recently, and they want to ask McLeish how to use Dongfang Chen.
One of the reporters asked: "Mr. McLeish, will Dongfang Chen, who suddenly scored a hat-trick in the last round, be in the starting lineup for this game?" Will he be a regular striker for Birmingham City in the future? ”
McLeish knew that the media reporters would ask such questions, and he immediately replied: "In my team, who starts and who comes off the bench is mainly based on the form, as long as the form is good, whoever starts is possible. Of course, I am very happy that Dongfang scored a hat-trick in the last round and hope that he will continue to have such a bright performance in the future. ”
McLeish added: "As for whether the East will start this game, I can't tell everyone at this time, because this matter is not decided, it depends on the state of him and the forwards in the team. ”
For McLeish's words, the media reporters don't believe it in their hearts, but what can they do if they don't believe it?
The media reporters naturally wanted to go over and interview Dongfang Chen in person, but the players of the Birmingham team were all given gag orders, and they had no way to get these interviews, and the reporters were depressed.
The next day, the sports section of England's "Sun" newspaper published such a report: "Thompson called Dongfang Chen, saying that let the Chinese see what is called a striker!" ”
The Sun put the interview with Martin 61 Thompson in today's report, and they put the original words of Martin 61 Thompson in this report, which attracted a lot of attention, and Burnley fans naturally applauded Martin 61 Thompson.
And Birmingham fans are sarcastic Martin 61 Thompson, this guy has only scored five goals in ten games, what is there to shout. Our East scored three goals in one game, won't they have to surpass you right away?
What is a striker who dares to shout like you? Hum! You're looking for death! Hmph, see you in the game and see how our East teaches you.
There are also media reports that "Burnley aim for three points, and the whole team says they will win against Birmingham!" ”
They also put interviews with Burnley players on this, showing the confidence of the whole Burnley team, and the Burnley fans were very excited, as if they had already won the game at this time.
Birmingham fans sarcastically ridiculed the Burnley team, saying that Burnley's strength is not enough to compete with Birmingham, and Burnley can only ask for benefits in words.
The Burnley fans were sarcastic that the Birmingham team didn't even dare to say a word, obviously they were already afraid of their Burnley team, and the Burnley fans were very excited, claiming that they would win this game!
Before the game, the fans on both sides were very noisy, which attracted a lot of attention to the game, and a lot of media reporters flocked to Lancashire to cover the Birmingham game against Burnley, which is rare in the Championship.
