Chapter 0174, the new trident

Hearing Carragher's words, Alan Shiler was stunned.

"What do you say? The current Leicester City has encountered problems that every strong team will face, and it is not easy to be a strong team? ”

Carragher nodded.

"But haven't you always been optimistic about Leicester City? Why do you think they are a strong team now? ”

"Please, I didn't say they were a strong team, I just said they had a 'strong team problem' and that's it."

"What are you going around in circles?"

Looking at Alan Shearer confused, Carragher explained.

'Leicester was new to the Premier League and his opponents weren't familiar with him.

"And almost all of them see them as underdogs.

"Even if you have just won the FA Cup, a lot of people think it's just luck.

'So at the start of the league and everybody saw Leicester,

"Everybody came up and stormed, trying to get three points.

"It's in line with Leicester's new ideas.

"He's got a great passer in the team, xia,

"There are first-class raiders Vardy and Mahrez,

"And a good bunch of defensive players,

"It's quite sharp to play defensive counter-attacks.

"The opponent's tactics are very right, and his own tactics are very good.

That's why Leicester City started the league with seven consecutive wins and once occupied the top spot in the league.

"But it's different now, so everyone knows that Leicester City is not weak.

"So every opponent treats them as if they were a strong team.

"Putting a bucket at every turn makes Leicester very awkward.

"They're not very good at breaking down dense defences.

"That's why we were only recently drawn by a group of underdogs, and we are winless in five games.

"If they want to become a real strong team, they also need to improve the overall strength of the whole team.

"And the super performance of the superstars."

Carragher commented that Alain Shearer rarely had no objection.

Instead, he nodded in agreement.

"Although you often blacked Leicester City, I agree with your analysis this time."

"What do you mean by me always Black Leicester? I'm a serious comment, okay? ”

"Huh."

"What do you mean......?"

The twelfth round of the Premier League is over, and Leicester City still have not won.

Chelsea are now five points ahead of Leicester City, who are now level with Leicester City and are only in third place on goal difference.

With a group of strong teams behind them, Leicester City's top four position is in jeopardy.

They need to get out of the slump as soon as possible.

However, the most important thing for them now is not the Premier League, but the Europa League.

After all, the Premier League has a whole season to catch up, but the Europa League is running out of time for Leicester City.

Now, after four rounds of the Europa League group stage, the standings are still scorching.

For Leicester City, though, they have been pushed into a corner.

In the first four rounds, Red Bull Salzburg won two and drew two, accumulating 8 points and ranking first in the group.

Wolfsburg has one win, two draws and one loss, and is second in the group with 5 points.

After two consecutive defeats in the opening game, Las Nodal won one and drew one in back-to-back matches with Leicester City, ranking third in the group with four points, and still retaining the possibility of qualifying.

Only Leicester City, who drew three opponents and lost one game to Rasnodar, finished bottom of the group with three points.

With two games remaining, Leicester City will face two of their strongest opponents.

With just one more defeat, it's time for them to say goodbye to the Europa League once and for all.

It was disappointing for them to be playing in Europe for the first time and looking forward to it.

So in the fifth round of the Europa League against Red Bull Salzburg, Leicester City must win!

One bad thing is that Vardy is still unavailable.

Although he has recovered from injury and has started training with the ball, the team doctor still recommended that he be given two more days off.

Pearson agreed.

For Leicester, even at the risk of Europa League elimination, Vardy must not be allowed to suffer an injury for a long time.

Therefore, in this game, Leicester City still have to attack with all their might without Vardy.

In this game, Pearson discharged a new offensive trident.

Xia Xing, Mahrez, Chris Wood.

High striker Chris Wood replaced Jamie Vardy and the Trident's tactics changed again.

Jamie Vardy is fast and good for counter-arrows.

Crosswood, on the other hand, is tall and impactful, making him suitable for a striker battering ram.

Therefore, Xia Xing and Mahrez will choose more to pass the ball and find high points.

Coincidentally, today Red Bull Salzburg's trident has also changed.

Previously, their trident was - midfielder Naby Keita, winger Alan and striker Soriano.

However, Alan did not start this game.

Not only did he not start, but he didn't even make it to the squad.

Because he is currently in talks about a transfer.

There are two teams in the Chinese Super League that are interested in him and the offer is not low.

Considering the player's mood swings, the club simply gave him a few days off to focus on the transfer.

And it's going to go anyway, and a new trident needs to be cultivated.

Winger Allan was absent today, with midfielder Sabitzer taking his place in the trident.

However, he did not take his place on the field.

The previous trident was an inverted triangle.

And now it's a positive triangle.

Sabitzer was next to Nabi Keita, the 20-year-old, who was both offensive and defensive, physical and energetic.

He is a key new star for Red Bull Salzburg.

Compared to Allan, Sabitzer is equally good at dribbling and shooting, and he is also very good at speed and passing, and more importantly, he is also very good defensively, and he is more versatile than Allan.

The only thing missing is experience, but it's easy to say that it can be accumulated slowly.

Both sides switched to new tridents in this match, and both sides tried to win.

Red Bull Salzburg will be hoping to secure a win to top the group.

Leicester will be hoping to secure their chances of qualifying with the three points.

From the first minute of the match, the two sides launched a fierce onslaught.

Because in the last game against Sunderland, Leicester City fielded a full main line-up.

This important match was also played with the main force.

With only three days to go, the players' physical recovery is not optimal.

In this case, if you need to win, you have to try to score as soon as possible and grab points when the players are fit.

As soon as the score began, Xia Xing made a long pass and went straight to the frontcourt!

Mahrez receives the ball firmly and sprints quickly!

Beat two defenders in a row!

Suddenly stuff the ball into the box from outside the box!

Low flat ball straight stopper!

And hit a reverse angle!

Chris Wood thrusts forward quickly and stretches his long legs!

Stab in front of the goal!

The ball goes straight into the net!

The ball is in!

1 to 0!

In the third minute of the game, Leicester City scored the first goal!

They were lucky and in good form!
