Time: August 1, 2014, 8:30 a.m

Where: Leicester City, Belvoir base

With Thailand's pre-season campaign over its season, Leicester City's first-team players are back at their Belvoir base.

And this day is also the day when Ling Feng returns to the team!

With the roar of the engine, a black Range Rover drove up to the gates of the Belvoir base.

The doorman had never seen a car with this license plate, so he showed a vigilant look.

Until he saw Ling Feng who rolled down the window and sat in the driver's seat, the seriousness on his face suddenly turned into surprise:

"Ling?!"

"Hey! John, long time no see! ”

"You got a new car?"

"yes, it was given to me by a sponsor. What do you think? ”

The scandal between Ling Feng and Kendall made him famous and attracted the attention of more large companies.

Among them, including the former British car brand - Land Rover!

Perhaps seeing the date photos of Ling Feng and Kendall, the person in charge of Land Rover's UK office felt that Ling Feng's image matched the Land Rover brand very well.

So, he was invited to become the spokesperson of Land Rover in the UK.

Although Land Rover is not as good as top car brands such as Ferrari, Lamborghini, and Bentley.

However, it is also a high-end SUV brand that is loved by professional athletes.

700,000 pounds a year endorsement fee, signed for two years.

And you can get the right to use two different series for free within a year, each for half a year.

In other words, he doesn't have to buy a car at all, and he can change to a different series of Land Rovers every six months to drive.

And the first car that Ling Feng chose was the black Range Rover that Kendal used to carry himself when he was in the United States.

He didn't have any thoughts about things, he just thought that the appearance of this car was very domineering, and the interior space was big enough!

After being stunned for a moment, the doorman gave a thumbs up and replied with a smile on his face:

"It's perfect for you!"

"I think so too!"

"Let's do it this season!"

"No problem!"

After a brief chat with the goalkeeper, he drove into the Belvo base and parked in the player's exclusive parking lot.

As soon as he got out of the car, he saw a light gray Mercedes CLS55 AMG slowly driving into the parking lot.

Immediately afterwards, getting out of the car was Jesse Lingard, a Manchester United youngster who had just officially announced his loan to Leicester City yesterday!

At that time, Ling Feng, who swiped this rental message on his mobile phone, was a little surprised.

He didn't expect that he would be lucky enough to be teammates with "Lin Huang" this season!

However, with Lin Huang's current strength, he can completely gain a foothold in this Leicester City.

At the very least, it's definitely better than the team's rotation winger Knokate.

What he didn't know, however, was that it was the storm caused by the flapping of the wings of his butterfly that changed Lingard's fate.

If he had not accepted Leicester City on loan, Lingard would have suffered a serious knee injury in the first round of the Premier League this season, which would have left him sidelined for several months.

The good upward momentum came to an abrupt end, and the opportunity to stay at Manchester United was also lost.

And now, instead of staying at Manchester United, he joined Leicester City on loan, just avoiding this injury!

And seeing Ling Feng dressed in a sporty style, Lingard couldn't help but be stunned.

Today is the day he came over to report.

The team meeting time announced by the manager is 9 o'clock.

And he came half an hour early to show his attitude to the Leicester manager and team-mates.

I'm not here to mess around!

But it didn't come to pass, on the first day of reporting, I met the star of Leicester City who happened to return from vacation!

The other party seems to be the same as himself, and came to the training base in advance.

"No wonder he's improving so fast! It's all for a reason! ”

Just as Lingard's thoughts were turning, Ling Feng took the lead in showing a bright smile and took the initiative to raise his hand to greet him:

"Hey, Jesse, long time no see!"

Although the two have only met once in the Championship.

However, whether it was being selected for the World Cup squad or performing well at the World Cup, Lingard sent him a congratulatory text message.

The relationship between the two can be regarded as friends.

Now, they have become teammates who fight side by side, and the relationship is even further.

"yes, long time no see. You're so early, too? ”

"Haha, get used to it. How are you doing? Where to go on vacation? ”

"Not bad"

After shaking hands and hugging Lingard, after some greetings, Ling Feng immediately took the initiative to propose: "While there is still time, I will take you around first?" ”

Ling Feng's friendly attitude made Lingard feel grateful in his heart, and his restrained mood was also slightly relaxed.

He nodded.

Take Lingard to all areas of the base, changing rooms, canteens, infirmaries, massage rooms, gyms, etc.

During the period, when he met the club's staff and players, Ling Feng also introduced Lingard very generously.

Finally, the two came to the outside of the head coach's office.

"Okay, the coach should have something to say to you, so I won't bother you. Just go straight to the locker room later."

"Okay, thank you, Ling."

"You're welcome."

Before turning to leave, Ling Feng did not forget to raise his hand and pat the dragon shoulder of "Lin Huang", and said with a smile:

"That's right, welcome to Leicester City!"

Seeing Ling Feng's back as he left, Lingard also took a deep breath and knocked on the door of the head coach's office.

。。。

Coming to the familiar locker room, Ling Feng suddenly became a social expert, and greeted his teammates one by one.

"Hey man, where did you go on vacation?"

"Did you see my fake shot? Handsome or not? ”

"No, I'm just good friends with her"

Facing Ling Feng's greetings, every teammate had a smile on their faces.

You must know that the current Ling Feng is no longer a rookie who has just been promoted to the first team.

Especially after the World Cup in Brazil, the youngest has become the team's top name in the absolute sense!

The status of the dressing room is even more upward, second only to captain Morgan.

Returning to the familiar locker room after a few months, Ling Feng found that there were a few old faces missing and a few new ones being added.

While on vacation at home and participating in business activities, Ling Feng is also always paying attention to the club's summer window recruitment.

Among the reinforcements, he is naturally more familiar with Ulloa and Albrighton, who will make important contributions to the "Blue Fox Miracle" in the future.

"Hey Leonardo, we meet again"

"Hello, Mark"

To the surprise of the new recruits, Ling Feng had already called out their names one by one before they could introduce themselves.

Ling Feng's kind smile calmed down the slight apprehension and uneasiness in their hearts about coming to a new environment.

At least they are welcome

A short time later, Lingard also came to the dressing room to meet his team-mates.

After changing into their shoes and training clothes, everyone went to the training ground to start training for the new season.

Ling Feng and Vardy, who had just returned to the team, came to the physical examination room of the base first to conduct a preliminary physical test.

This physical test is mainly to supervise whether the two are lazy and negligent in management during the summer offseason.

Fortunately, although Ling Feng didn't practice, he didn't eat Haisai nonsense.

And the results of the physical test made Pearson satisfied.

Compared with January, Ling Feng's height has grown by two centimeters, and his weight has increased by almost eight kilograms.

That's all muscle, though.

At least on Ling Feng's belly, there was no fat to be seen.

And Jamie Vardy's physical condition has been excellent.

After completing the medical examination, the two also went to the training ground to join the rest of their teammates.

The pre-season training is mainly based on the reserve of physical fitness.

During the long season, players have to participate in intense high-intensity competitions continuously, and fitness is the most basic motivation.

Without sufficient physical support, no matter how good the technique is and how fast the speed is, you will not be able to perform at a normal level in the competition.

After the physical training session, the players take a break and rehydrate, followed by a tactical training session.

The content of the training session is mainly to focus on Ling Feng as the core to conduct the drill of the 4231 tactical formation.

And the play of this formation is very dependent on the talent and creativity of the forward players.

It just so happens that they have the most creative midfielders in England!

Leicester City have basically continued their tactical style of play from last season, but there have been some personnel changes.

Albrighton replaced Dier and cameo Jamie Pierce as the left winger.

The former Aston Villa player, who played mainly on the right during his time at Villa, can also play on the left.

The pace is average, but the crosses are good.

Defensively motivated, tactically executed, and the kind of hardworking and hardworking players that coaches like very much.

Pearson will be hoping he can create more crosses on the left flank and give more chances for Vardy in the middle and Ling Feng in the middle.

In the group confrontation, Ling Feng quickly entered the state and gave all the new signings a little star shock!

When he watched Ling Feng pass by his side to make soup, Lingard was stunned on the spot.

An uproar ensued in his heart:

He's getting stronger again?!

Although he had already watched the World Cup matches, he had noticed Ling Feng's tremendous progress.

However, through TV and close contact, he was able to truly appreciate how strong Ling Feng was now!

Whether it is the confrontation ability, stopping the ball, and long-range shooting, it is much stronger than the last time.

In particular, his explosiveness is simply incredible.

Many times, it's clear that he's already seen through what he's going to do next, but he just can't keep up!

Not only Lingard, but also other new signings who have just joined the team are also surprised by Ling Feng's ball skills.

Is this the heart of the Three Lions' midfield?!

It's too strong, isn't it?!

No wonder he was able to perform well on a stage like the World Cup and won the Best Newcomer award!

And the old teammates who have been getting along with Ling Feng day and night are indifferent,

Ling Feng's terrifying speed of progress, they had long been accustomed to it.

People and human talents cannot be generalized.

They also accepted the fact that Ling Feng was a gifted monster of a completely different level than them.

No one knows how powerful a player Ling Feng will grow into if he continues at this terrifying growth rate.

The only thing they can be sure of is that having a teammate like Ling Feng is the happiest thing in their careers!

Looking at Ling Feng's excellent performance on the field, Pearson on the sidelines stretched his brows, and secretly breathed a sigh of relief in his heart.

Many young players become arrogant after achieving great things in a short period of time.

Double League Cup Champion, Championship Double Champion, Selected for National Team, Best Newcomer in World Cup.

What Ling Feng has experienced in the past few months is a dream script that almost all young players dare not dream of.

In the last second, he seemed to be the same young player who had just made his first-team debut;

In the next second, he was transformed into a British Emperor Star worth 30 million and attracted the attention of the whole UK!

With such a rapid speed of success, not to mention young people who have not been deeply involved in the world, even Pearson himself, in such a situation, is likely to get carried away.

Especially after learning that he went to the country of the United States, which was full of glitter and drunkenness, Pearson was particularly afraid that Ling Feng would indulge in enjoyment and sink.

Fortunately, judging from Ling Feng's performance on the training ground, not only did he not become lazy or slack, but became more energetic!

Obviously, this young man has higher goals and pursuits!

That's a good thing for him and for Leicester City.

。。。

At 2 p.m., all training sessions end.

Ling Feng, who was discussing with Mahrez whether to go to his house for a gathering in the evening, heard the head coach Pearson calling his name not far away:

"Ling, you come to my office later, I have something to tell you."

"Okay!"

After returning to the base to take a shower and change clothes, Ling Feng knocked on the door of the head coach's office.

"Come in."

"Coach, are you looking for me?"

Pearson, who was sitting in the office chair, first motioned for Ling Feng to sit down.

Then he said: "Have you fun in the United States?" ”

"Okay."

"That's good"

Looking at Pearson's expression of wanting to speak and stopping, Ling Feng was puzzled in his heart, and couldn't help but take the initiative to ask:

"Coach, do you want to ask me about that scandal too?"

However, Pearson just shook his head:

"I don't have the right to intervene in your private life, but I'm sure you'll be able to handle your own off-the-field affairs. The new season is just around the corner and we're all counting on you to lead the team to a great performance in the Premier League."

From Pearson's words, Ling Feng heard the strong expectations of the head coach and the club for himself.

He felt a little pressure, but also full of motivation in his heart.

He also enjoys the feeling of being entrusted with a heavy responsibility.

Ling Feng's expression was solemn, and he immediately said:

"I'm very grateful for the trust the club has placed in me, coach! I'll speak with my performance on the field! ”

"Then Hao Ling, do you want to change the jersey number?"

This sudden change in topic made Ling Feng stunned.

"Change the number?"

"Yes, now that the team's number seven is vacant, the club would like to ask your opinion if you want to change to number seven."

Because midfielder Dean Hammond, who wears the number seven shirt, has left, the number seven is vacant.

And after the club's internal discussion, this jersey number is none other than Ling Feng!

Sorry bros, an hour late.

Let's get up tomorrow and see again.
