Chapter 291: Eating Ivan Raw and Playing Terry!

Sky Sports' follow-up is just a small episode in the daily life of Leicester City's soldiers.

Their attention was still on the training ground and the tactical room.

At the weekend, they will face one of the strongest opponents of the season so far at the King Power Stadium.

That's the defending champions – Chelsea!

However, the invincible Blues, who set the top record last season, have gone down the waterloo-like supercascade this season.

After fifteen rounds, Chelsea only have a poor record of 4 wins, 3 draws and 8 defeats, ranking 16th in the league, just one point above the relegation zone!

And the core players in the team are all in a slump and have no form at all.

In the last round, they suffered a shock defeat at Stamford Bridge to promoted Bournemouth.

Everyone is no longer shocked by this.

Because, this season, the Blues have lost too many games.

You know, they only lost three games last season.

And now it's only fifteen rounds, and they've lost eight games!

Blues fans have also felt numb and even hopeless.

And in this round of the game, I met the blue fox who exploded in state.

Before the game, most people thought that with the current state of Chelsea, there was no way to stop the Blue Foxes!

After a season in the Premier League, the Foxes continue to run wildly in the Premier League.

The players in the squad burst out with amazing energy and played chilling football.

Defensively, everyone is pressing in the front court, full of aggression.

As soon as the opponent enters his own half-court territory, the nearest Foxes player will rush to the ground.

Even after conceding the ball, they will immediately counter-attack on the spot, slowing down the opponent's counter-attack and thus changing the formation

On the offensive end, every counterattack they made was like a fast and furious game on the pitch, which was not only pleasing to the eye, but also exciting.

The attack that pierced the opponent's heart again and again was of course thanks to the fact that they had three top players, Ling Feng, Vardy and Mahrez, formed by the Blue Fox Trio!

The tacit understanding and cooperation of the three have gone further this season, repeatedly playing exquisite passing and receiving cooperation, and assisting each other is a common thing.

As of the end of the fifteenth round of this season, Ling Feng has scored nine goals, Vardy has scored fifteen goals, Mahrez has scored seven goals, and the three have combined to score a terrifying 31 goals, which has become the most offensive firepower trident in the Premier League and even the entire five major leagues!

And 31 goals, accounting for more than 70% of the team's goals!

This number is even more than the goals of the whole team of Manchester United, Chelsea and Liverpool!

It can be seen how good Leicester City's attack is this season!

In the opinion of many football commentators and experts, the Blue Foxes sitting at home will definitely be able to win the Blues!

In Ling Feng's view, the current Blues are no longer the Blues in good form last season.

And the current Blue Fox is no longer the Blue Fox that can only be used to defend with offense last year.

One is the defending champion who is in the doldrums, and the other is the future champion who is on the rise!

Whether it is the state, morale and fighting spirit, the Blue Foxes have completely defeated the Blues!

And the direction of the game is also as everyone expected:

The Blues at the Stade des Regency couldn't stop the Foxes from making history!

In this game, Mourinho, who was troubled by the team's record and off-field lawsuits, continued to use the 4231 formation.

The biggest change in the starting line-up was that midfield commander Cesc Fabregas, who was in a slump of form, was on the bench and Brazil international Ramires took his place.

Obviously, Mourinho is also very afraid of Leicester's sharp counter-attack.

That's why Ramirez, who has stronger defensive ability, will be selected to start in the back position, so as not to be directly broken through the entire midfield by Ling Feng when the offense and defense are switched, and complete the shot or goal.

Matic and Ramirez, on the other hand, have defense and interception, and cover more area, and are definitely one of the hardest midfield combinations in the current Premier League.

It's a pity that Ling Feng didn't stupidly go toe-to-toe with these two old brothers who regarded himself as a thorn in his side, but after the opening, he frequently switched positions with Albrighton on the left!

He moved to the flanks to avoid the entanglement of Nemanja Matic and Ramirez in the middle, but also to get more space to break through.

To put it bluntly, he made it clear that he didn't talk about martial arts!

I plan to use my speed to bully the Serbian captain who has been older for nearly a round and his form has dropped significantly!

Of course, this change of position was not a whim of Ling Feng, but one of Ranieri's pre-match tactical arrangements.

As the core of the team's instigation and counterattack, Ling Feng will inevitably be targeted in the middle.

Therefore, before the game, Ranieri reminded Ling Feng and asked him to switch positions with Albrighton on the left side during the game.

Then blast down the flanks and tear apart the Chelsea defence!

Compared to Cesar Azpilicueta, who played at left-back, Ivanovic's physical function has decreased significantly, and he is definitely a breakthrough in Chelsea's backline.

In the seventeenth minute of the game, the Blue Foxes, who were fighting at home, took the lead!

With Riyad Mahrez's breakthrough, the Foxes were awarded a corner on the right side of the pitch.

The cross from Ling Feng was flat and fast, and with an outward arc, he accurately found his own person wearing a blue jersey.

Hute in the penalty area beat Blues captain John Terry and headed the ball into the goal!

Speaking of which, Hutter arrived at the Chelsea echelon at the age of sixteen.

It was also during Jose Mourinho's first spell in charge of Chelsea that he gained a lot of playing time and slowly made his mark in the Premier League and even the German national team.

At that time, many people thought that the tall young German centre-back would be the best partner next to Terry.

It's a pity that with the arrival of Mourinho's lover Ricardo Carvalho in Porto, coupled with the shortcomings of his own strength, Hut finally failed to stay in the highly competitive Chelsea.

However, this header seems to be a response to the decision of Chelsea and Mourinho to give up on themselves ten years ago, which was wrong!

A powerful header that made a good start to the game!

In less than twenty minutes, Chelsea's defence was breached!

Mourinho is clearly very unhappy with this.

He immediately rushed to the sidelines and began to shout to the players:

"Please! Guys! You should be tougher! ”

"Don't let him grab the first point!"

However, with the poor results and the off-field turmoil caused by the team's medical goal, many players in the team have become more or less dissatisfied with the coaching style of the best coach in history.

In addition, after winning the championship last year, the team's aggressiveness is not so great.

So, even as he kept shouting from the sidelines, no one on the pitch answered him, just kept their heads down in silence as if they had lost the game.

And Mourinho, standing on the sidelines, is like a lone hero alone against the entire Leicester City, alone.

Behind him, there is a blue ocean of Blue Fox fans.

。。。

"In this game, the Blue Foxes completely dominated the game!"

"Ranieri's tactical arrangement of letting Ling Feng pull the side is simply a stroke of genius."

"The youngest Premier League assist king in history is on the left flank, and he has been making killings frequently."

When the game came to the 43rd minute, Leicester City played an efficient combination, and Albrighton switched to Ling Feng on the left, and staged a good performance of wide explosion.

Facing the double defense of the veteran "Horror Ivan" Ivanovic and Ramirez, Ling Feng, who advanced with the ball on the left side, unceremoniously made a soup and drove the ball directly out a few meters away.

Then with a kick under his feet, the whole person was like a blue lightning, accelerating from the outside, and then directly began to eat raw!

Even though Ivanovic subconsciously completed his turn, and while stretching out his hand to block Ling Feng's advance, he used his strength to chase back frantically, but to no avail, he could only watch Ling Feng's figure get farther and farther away

This scene made many viewers in front of the TV watch it, not only reminding of the famous scene where Bale staged the Fast and Furious in White Hart Lane, and repeatedly cooked soup past McConn, who is known as the "world's No. 1 left-back"!

Although Ivan's speed is not as famous as McConn, in the status of the football world, the name of "Horror Ivan" is definitely no less than McConn!

After eating it raw and taking a position ahead of Branislav Ivanovic, Ling Feng dribbled the ball into the heart of Chelsea without hesitation.

Due to the general backward foot of the left foot, coupled with the previous game habits, whether it was Ivanovic or Terry, who came to make up for the defense, they all thought that Ling Feng wanted to cut inside with his right foot.

And Ling Feng did choose to cut inside horizontally and took the ball to the front of the big penalty area.

However, just when everyone thought he was going to shoot into the far corner, the Blue Fox No. 7 shot with a gesture, and then slammed his right foot to the left, shaking Terry so much that he almost broke his old waist at the same time, and went directly into the left side of the penalty area!

Seeing that Ling Feng was staring in the direction of the goal, making a gesture to shoot, Terry, who turned around and chased back, rushed to his front without hesitation, and then went directly to the ground with a sliding tackle.

Tried to use his body to expand the blocking area and block the angle of Ling Feng's shot in the far corner.

At the same time, Courtois in front of the goal was also like a big enemy, opening his arms and moving to the near corner of the goal.

However, what neither Terry nor Courtois expected was that Ling Feng's left foot was still a feint!

Letting Terry slide out of the bottom line, Ling Feng directly buckled with his left foot, and while he buckled the ball back, the outside of his right foot flicked off the instep, and the ball came to the area near the penalty spot.

"What?!"

"He didn't shoot, he passed!"

At the same time, Mahrez, who didn't know when to hit the middle, plugged in at high speed, and when no one was marked, he met the ball and pushed it, and sent the ball into the bottom corner of the goal very neatly!

Two fake shots in a row, deceived the former best central defender in the Premier League John Terry twice in an almost playful way, and finally gave away a chance to eat cake in front of goal without any difficulty.

Ling Feng used his superhuman speed and explosiveness on the wing to help the team extend the score to two goals!

At this moment, Ling Feng opened his arms to greet the figure of his teammates, as if a god had descended from the earth, and he looked radiant.

Ranieri, who was on the sidelines, also applauded his disciples with a smile on his face.

In stark contrast, it is Mourinho, a "madman" with his hands on his chest and a serious expression not far away.

This time, he didn't yell at his disciples again, nor did he call any of the players to the sidelines to ask for their orders.

First of all, he already had a hunch in his heart that he might have lost control of this team.

Secondly, there is nothing to blame for this goal.

The two defenders, Branislav Ivanovic had done everything he could, and so did Terry, who even threw his entire body out.

And Courtois's position is not a problem.

If you want to blame, you can only blame Ling Feng's personal ability for being too explosive, and he can't prevent it at all!

"This kid, the speed of progress is too amazing."

Recalling the scene when he first saw Ling Feng, Mourinho was full of emotion for a while.

At that time, Ling Feng, although he was a fledgling, was already able to use his passing to bring victory to the team.

Last year, the kid stopped being a passer who used the pass to organize tandem attacks and started to show his incredible speed.

And this year, he has developed two skills: advancing with the ball and taking powerful free kicks!

In just two years, the brunette teenager has become stronger and more comprehensive.

Centralization, dribbling, wide blasting, powerful free-kicks

And the state and performance are as stable and excellent as ever!

In the body of this Blue Fox No. 7, Mourinho couldn't help but think of the Real Madrid No. 7 who is omnipotent.

Even in his eyes, Ling Feng's talent and speed of progress are even more terrifying than Ronaldo!

After all, Ronaldo played in the Premier League for three or four years before he really came close to the level of the Premier League MVP.

But this black-haired teenager, within two years, has become the existence that all teams in the Premier League must focus on!

Immediately, he turned his head to look at Hazard, who was bowing his head and waist not far away, and his brows involuntarily furrowed deeper.

Some people, with great talent, still work hard.

And there are those who are gifted but lazy.

In this game, compared with Ling Feng's demand for Ivan on the side, and the performance of the whole game, Hazard, who beat Ling Feng and was elected Premier League MVP last season, was in a very low state.

Having just recovered from injury not long ago, his whole body looks very heavy, and he has repeatedly made individual breakthroughs on the left flank, without the sharpness of last season, and looks very clumsy.

Even at halftime, he was replaced by Pedro because of calf muscle discomfort.

At half-time, Jose Mourinho lectured in the dressing room and made a tactical change.

In the second half, Chelsea, who were already two goals behind, began to launch an onslaught.

However, compared to last season, the Foxes' defense this season is much better.

N'Golo Kante, who is everywhere, and Morgan and Hut, who are more cooperative, have all stifled Chelsea's attacks time and time again.

Instead, the Foxes seized another chance when Riyad Mahrez sent a brilliant long ball into the box for Jamie Vardy to kill the game with a blast!

Even in the final moments of the game, Pedro's face-saving goal from outside the penalty area could not change the outcome of the team's defeat.

In the end, with Ling Feng's two assists, as well as goals from Hut, Mahrez and Vardy, Leicester City defeated the defending champion Chelsea with a score of 3-1 at home, continuing their unbeaten league record!

Beep~beep~~Beep~~~

As soon as the match was over, Mourinho shook Ranieri's hand with a serious face and turned to leave.

Then, just before stepping into the entrance of the players' tunnel, he suddenly paused and turned back.

Glancing at Ling Feng, who was hugging and celebrating with his teammates on the field, Mourinho couldn't help but have a thought in his mind:

If he used all the strength and resources of the club to sign Ling Feng in the summer window last year.

Wouldn't the current situation be completely different?!

The only thing he was sure of was that if he had signed Ling Feng last year, the situation would definitely be much better than it is now.

At least after Hazard loses his magic this season, there is still a top player in his team who can make a difference in the game!

As long as you have a brilliant record on the court, all public opinion off the field will be towards you.

The media will not be so arrogant in front of them, and they will not lose the support of the club.

Thinking of this, Mourinho already has a plan in mind:

If there is a next time, if there is a chance, he will not hesitate to sign Ling Feng!
