Chapter 216: Lin Huang Jiamakui, please call us Manchester Leicester United!
The day after the home win over Stoke City, Leicester's local newspaper, The Mercury, praised Hutter's role in a report.
"The former Germany international, with his tall and strong body, helped Leicester City to complete the first clean sheet of the new year!"
"His combination with Morgan may be the answer in the Leicester backline!"
And Hutter is only the first signing of Leicester City's winter window, not the last!
Two days later, Chelsea's legendary Australian goalkeeper Mark Schwarzer completed the free transfer formalities and signed an 18-month contract with Leicester City, officially becoming the Blue Foxes' third goalkeeper after Schmeichel Jr. and Hamer!
With the Asian Cup and Africa Cup of Nations kicking off, the Premier League is about to usher in a two-week period of recuperation.
Taking advantage of this opportunity, the major teams in the Premier League have accelerated the pace of recruitment operations to help the team become stronger.
Among them, the transfer operations of the major giants are also progressing rapidly:
Chelsea, who are at the top of the league table, have not made a big move.
Perhaps Mourinho is satisfied with the current squad and the team's record, and does not need to make too many reinforcements.
Even so, their move to Fiorentina winger Cuadrado has been widely reported.
It is said that Chelsea have made a hefty £25 million price to get the Serie A maniac.
It is worth mentioning that Chelsea have also added right-winger Mohamed Salah, who has not played time in the squad, to the deal.
At this moment, perhaps no one in the whole Chelsea would have thought that after a round trip in Serie A, Salah would return to the Premier League with a new attitude, and then become Liverpool's super pharaoh!
And Manchester City, which suffered a shortage of strikers, got Swansea's striker Bony as he wished.
For the Premier League striker, who scored the most goals in 2014, the Blues paid £28 million in transfer fees!
For Arsenal, January is the day of the chain.
The impact of injuries has caused the team's form to fluctuate.
They can either lose away to Southampton or win Manchester City away.
Moreover, this season, due to the departure of Vermaelen, Djou and Jenkinson, Arsenal has clearly been stretched defensively.
Facing the Champions League, the league, and the FA Cup, Arsenal hastened to buy Brazilian central defender Gabriel Paulista from La Liga team "Yellow Submarine" Villarreal for 15 million pounds.
In addition to strengthening the depth of the backline, Arsene Wenger did not forget to bring in the 16-year-old Polish demon Belik from Legia Warsaw.
And the "Red Devils" Manchester United, which was engaged in the summer, has long announced that it will not bring in reinforcements in the winter window.
According to The Guardian, the decision not to bring in reinforcements in the winter window was made after negotiations between manager Louis van Gaal and club chief executive Ed Woodward.
They don't think there will be any big-name players in the winter window, let alone players who will make a substantial difference to United.
Of course, there is also a special situation for Manchester United's winter window recruitment, that is, Van Gaal's favorite target suddenly announced his departure.
The Guardian further broke the news that Van Gaal's favorite goal is actually Ling Feng, the best player in the Premier League halfway!
In the report written by the Manchester Evening News, they pointed out that Ling Feng is the most scarce type of player in Manchester United and even the entire football world - Playmaker!
According to the authoritative organization IFFHS (The International Federation of Football History and Statistics), Playmaker is actually the abbreviation of the core of the offensive organization.
On the pitch, they are responsible for controlling and organising the team's attacking tempo, creating space through their technique, vision, ability to hold the ball, creativity and passing ability, and helping the team score goals!
In short, create chances to score by any means!
Both the Playmaker and the goalscorer are equally important to the team.
That's why the IFFHS chose to set up this award in 2006 to recognise the people behind the goalscorers.
The core of the best offensive playmaker in the IFFHS has always been the biggest names in football, Zidane, Kaka, Xavi, and Iniesta.
In the list of winners announced by IFFHS just a few days ago, Toni Kroos, the midfield core of Real Madrid and the German national team, broke the monopoly of Xavi and Iniesta, two Barcelona superstars, on the award, and became the best offensive organization core of the IFFHS in 2014!
It is worth mentioning that thanks to his amazing performance in the Premier League and the World Cup, Ling Feng, who is the core of the midfield of Leicester City and the Three Lions, ranked fifth with 30 points for the first time on the list.
Second only to Kroos, Messi, Ronaldo and Iniesta.
Behind him, there are also Yaya Toure, Sweinsteiger, Neymar, Modric, Hazard and other stars!
Many media believe that Ling Feng is very similar to Cesc Fabregas, who became the core of Arsenal at a young age.
It's just that Ling Feng's explosion and speed completely exploded Fabregas!
However, there is no doubt that with Ling Feng's talent and development speed, it is only a matter of time before he becomes a superstar!
If you can get Ling Feng, Manchester United's problems on the offensive side will definitely be solved!
At Manchester United, Ling Feng and Wayne Rooney can replicate the combination in the national team without considering the tacit understanding;
Ling Feng can send cannonballs to the two super goalscorers, Falcao and Robin van Persie, to inspire their desire to score.
Even with Ling Feng, the core of the frontcourt organization of the full-time organization, Di Maria does not have to retreat frequently to get the ball, and can focus on advancing on the side and tearing up the opponent's defense.
Finally, after winning Ling Feng, you can also give Leicester City, which is also a fourth-tier rival, a heavy blow!
It's just a lot of money!
At the end of the report, the Manchester Evening News directly appealed to Manchester United's top management to take Ling Feng at all costs.
However, even Louis van Gaal understands this.
But the point is that Leicester City can't sell Ling Feng!
And Ling Feng is not willing to transfer!
So, even if he is very aware of the team's problems and the best way to solve them, Van Gaal can only develop the best tactics from his existing squad of players.
Even if the new Red Devils No. 7 Di Maria is in worrying form, Van Persie and Falcao have fallen seriously;
Even if the luxury quartet in the front court only Wayne Rooney can score consistently;
However, after an exciting summer window and his worst start in 28 years, Van Gaal has slowly grown to know his players and has made various tactical changes in an attempt to spark chemistry on the pitch.
This has also allowed Manchester United to rebound in form recently, making it all the way to the top four.
With such an ability to see the food and cook, it is no wonder that fans call Van Gaal "Chef Fan"
。。。
January 26th.
Ling Feng, who had just travelled to Hungary for an unforgettable weekend with Barbara, returned to England to join the team.
After parking his black Land Rover, he walked into the base and did not forget to casually greet the passing club staff:
"Hey, how are you?"
"It's a nice day."
However, when he came to the team's locker room, he found that in addition to many teammates he was familiar with, there was a tall, but shy "newcomer" at some point
And this newcomer has a bigger head than normal.
"Hey, Ling!"
Looking at Maguire, who was wearing a Leicester City training uniform and greeting him with a smile, Ling Feng was dumbfounded!
"Wang Defa?!"
After complaining in his heart, he blurted out: "Harry? Why are you here?! ”
Hearing Ling Feng's question, without waiting for Maguire to answer, Lingard on the side took the initiative to explain first:
"Dude, haven't you read the official announcement on the club's website? The club have sent him on loan from Hull City. So, he just came over today to report! ”
News?
Rent?!
Ling Feng, who has been immersed in the gentle township in the past few days, of course did not pay attention to the team's reinforcements!
Besides, with Maguire's current coffee position, apart from the official announcement on the club's official website, no newspaper will report on his loan.
Therefore, just after spending a good weekend with his girlfriend, Ling Feng found out that the team actually gave him such a big "surprise"
Wait!
Looking at Maguire with a smile on his face, and glancing at Lingard next to him, Ling Feng's eyes widened, and he instantly realized a very important thing!
No way!
Lin Huang Jiama big head!!
Little Leicester City has gathered two major stalk kings in football!
The future Manchester United captain Maguire, Lingard on loan from Manchester United, plus Drinkwater, Mattie James, Nick Powell, three Red Devils academy players, Leicester City's first team has a Manchester United background, reaching as many as five!
Leicester City can be renamed Manchester United!
Although the soul of the inner complaint is burning.
However, Ling Feng still calmed down as quickly as he could, opened his arms, and showed a bright smile to Maguire:
"Man, fate is amazing!"
'Remember the first conversation we had after the FA Cup?'
Hearing this, Maguire was stunned for a moment, and then nodded in response:
"Of course I do!"
"You offered to exchange jerseys with me and said we would have a chance to play together."
"Haha, yes! I didn't expect the opportunity to come so soon! ”
Let's not talk about Maguire's current strength and whether he can gain a foothold in Leicester City.
Maguire's work ethic and attitude alone were enough to make Ling Feng awe-inspired!
When his performance was questioned and criticized, Maguire never complained publicly.
No matter what the head coach arranged, he trained and played diligently.
Then prove yourself through your own hard work and performance and regain the trust of the manager!
It can be said that in the future team of Manchester United, who is lazy, only he has the spirit of never giving up on the Red Devils!
is the so-called laughing terrier does not laugh at people, Ma Kui is really a man!
In the face of Ling Feng's welcome, Maguire also showed a slightly shy smile:
"It's been an honour to join Leicester City on loan! I hope to learn more here."
After the two hugged amicably, Ling Feng took the initiative to introduce Maguire to the rest of his teammates.
"This is Captain Wes Morgan"
"This is"
After a lap, all the Leicester City generals knew that Maguire was a friend of Ling Feng's and a good-looking young man.
After changing into training clothes, everyone went to the training ground.
Before the training session began, head coach Pearson gave a brief introduction to Harry Maguire.
Others welcomed Maguire's arrival.
Even Moore and Vasilewski, who were reduced to substitute central defenders, smiled and applauded.
In their view, Harry Maguire, who has not even made playing time at Hull City, poses no threat to their position at all.
What's more, Ling Feng, the star of the team, seems to have a good relationship with this stupid big man with a big head, and there is no need to throw a face at this newcomer, so as to make enemies with Ling Feng.
In his first training session at Leicester City, Maguire was fully focused and showed his diligence to his team-mates and manager.
And looking at Ling Feng and Maguire talking and laughing, Pearson, who was standing on the sidelines, couldn't help but say to Walsh beside him:
"This deal, it seems to be not bad."
In fact, for Pearson and Leicester City, the loan of Maguire is just to deal with possible injuries at centre-back.
Maguire's position in the team is at best a fifth centre-back.
Part of the reason for loaning Maguire over is because of his personal relationship with Ling Feng.
However, Pearson and Walsh would never have imagined how precious this opportunity would be for Maguire!
In Hull City, where the relegation situation is very serious and does not dare to rotate easily, Maguire almost has to sit on the bench.
Coming to Leicester City, who are higher in the league table, he will not have less playing time than at Hull City.
Besides, you can't play even at Leicester City.
But being able to train with higher, stronger players is also a very valuable growth opportunity!
The most important thing is that he can be teammates with a super genius like Ling Feng!
Maguire has already made up his mind that during the short loan period, he must hug Ling Feng's thighs and let him teach himself some experience.
And after learning that Ling Feng was planning to practice dribbling after the training session, he did not hesitate to offer to be a sparring partner!
In Maguire's view, this is a very mutually beneficial thing.
Moreover, it seems to be more beneficial to himself.
You know, it's not every day that you can let an offensive player of Ling Feng's level accompany you to practice defense!
Regarding Maguire's initiative to ask, Ling Feng was not polite, and readily agreed.
Crossing the dummy wall is no longer interesting, and it just needs an opponent who can give some defensive pressure to make a significant improvement in his dribbling skills under his feet.
And Maguire, who came on loan and didn't have much playing time, is a good choice!
In Ling Feng's view, the current juvenile version of the aircraft carrier has shown a certain strength and potential.
Head-to-head confrontation and high-altitude balls, both reach a certain level.
Moreover, before you build muscle, the pace of your feet is not slow.
If you use FIFA's overall rating, Maguire's overall rating is only about 68~72, which is the level of the Championship starters.
However, his potential can at least reach more than eighty-three!
The future is promising!
