Chapter 36: Pochettino in Heartache (Seeking Follow-up)
The Leicester revelry continued.
Tottenham, on the other side, is not so easy.
All the players who had just joined the defense in the Tottenham penalty area looked at the backs of the few men in blue jerseys who ran to the sidelines, and they all bowed their heads with some self-reproach.
Especially Alderweireld, the central defender looked at Chen Yufeng's back at this time, and the expression on his face kept changing.
Is this really the same guy who has been playing the role of a jack-of-all-trades in training matches and often doesn't perform at all during the whole game?
How long has it been, and how can you get such a sharp cross?
Alderweireld felt that the world was uneven.
If I'm not mistaken, Chen Yufeng should be about thirty years old, right?
If you want to say that a sixteen or seventeen-year-old player hasn't seen him for a while and has developed a new skill, then he can barely believe it.
Why are you still improving at the age of thirty?
Reverse growth, huh?
His mentality exploded a little, and he turned his head to look at Vertonghen next to him, and saw that the latter's eyes also had some puzzled looks.
The two didn't say much, and walked towards the front court together with their heads down.
This kick was not blocked, both of them are war criminals, don't think about it, just try to see if there will be a chance to atone for their crimes.
Not far in front of them, Son Heung-min also noticed this Asian-faced player for the first time at this moment.
For him, he has just arrived in the team, and he must have never seen Chen Yufeng.
However, after joining the team, he has heard a lot of gossip news, and his first impression of this player is similar to that of other players at Tottenham.
It seems to be one, an older one, who has persisted for more than ten years......
But still did not achieve any success with a tragic nature of the player.
At that time, Sun Xingmin was also a little regretful, after all, he was also Asian, and he must have some empathy.
He also thought that if it weren't for his father Sun Xiongzheng's devilish training for him since he was a child, maybe he would also follow Chen Yufeng's old path......
It wasn't until two days ago that Pochettino came over to highlight the player's threat that he had a slight improvement.
When I saw it today, it was exactly what Pochettino said.
Son Heung-min couldn't help but feel a little prejudiced against other teammates, and in his opinion, these people obviously didn't notice the strength of this Asian and instilled in him a wrong perception.
If someone else knows what he thinks......
It's hard to say anything else, the two war criminals just now, Alder Weireld and Vertonghen, will definitely scold their mothers aggrievedly.
The game soon resumed, with Tottenham increasing the tempo up front and desperately wanting to equalise before half-time.
"Beep! Beep ——! ”
However, in the face of Leicester City's steel defence, they still did not find a way to break the game in a short period of time, but soon heard the referee blow the whistle at the end of the half.
Tottenham's players walked off the pitch with black faces and could only enter midfield with a trailing scoreline.
This is the third time they've felt this since the start of the season, and it's really powerless......
Obviously, they know that the squad is very good, and the individual quality of the players in every position is very good, including the manager Pochettino, and the coaching level is also very good.
But when you get on the field, it's easy to make mistakes and get confused.
Pitchside.
Ranieri walked up to Pochettino, shook Pochettino's hand and walked towards the dressing room.
In the process, Ranieri seems to notice that Pochettino's face does not seem to be ordinary black.
At first, Ranieri didn't think about it until the moment he saw Chen Yufeng.
Oh......
Ranieri couldn't help but smile at the corners of his mouth, and he couldn't help but smile and walked towards the dressing room.
It didn't take long for Tottenham Hotspur to be in the dressing room.
Pochettino swallowed the frustration in his heart and talked to the players about the problems of the first half and how to solve them in front of the tactical board.
Then he went out at the speed of light, stood in a no-man's corner and smoked.
He was very depressed, and all kinds of things were superimposed on him, making him a little breathless.
The assistant coach quickly walked over from the side, as if he was a little worried about his mental state.
"It's okay Mr. Pochettino, it's only the first three games, and even if you can't win it, there are still 35 rounds to come."
The assistant coach also took out a cigarette, with a shocked expression in his expression, "But what I didn't expect was that the Chinese footwork was really good." ”
"Leicester's counter-attacks were already very sharp, and there were often more and more than they could play less."
"Now with this Chinese cross, there are more attacking means, and in the next league it may be more efficient and quicker to score goals in the game."
"Often, in the face of this kind of counter-attacking team, you can't let him score the first goal, otherwise they will be very comfortable in the later games."
"Claudio Ranieri's team, this season's relegation is estimated to be worry-free."
He didn't seem to be in a good mood either.
He is not the coach brought over by Pochettino, but has been at Tottenham for a long time.
After Bo Fat came, he did not fire him, but left him to be a guide in technical and tactical training.
Over the past few years, his affection for this club has been very deep, and in any way, he does not want to see this club go without a win in several rounds.
Including, today, when he saw the once inconspicuous Chinese player assist Mahrez to blast their goal with a precise pass, his emotions seemed even more wrong.
Does he feel like everyone is targeting Tottenham?
Why can't you play any position at Tottenham and can't show any characteristics?
Went to Leicester City and suddenly took off?
"Alas......"
Pochettino spat out the smoke and shook his head: "You said we would have been better if we had left him behind......"
'It's not just that the goal won't happen, we're going to have a lot of attackers up front.'
"Who knows what happened at that time, everyone can't think of him today." The assistant coach also sighed, then paused to speak again.
'It's okay now, if the player continues to play like this in the rest of the game, or even better.'
"I can't even imagine what our fans are going to say about us."
'Including today, Tottenham fans will definitely say about this after the game, he has already played the stats.'
Hearing his words, Pochettino sighed again and said with depression: "If the quality of this kind of ball is too high, it is really impossible to defend." ”
"On the football field, there are many times when one thing is lost, and it is impossible to say that if you have done a good job of prevention, you will definitely be able to prevent it."
"I can only say that what he passed on, it's really good." The assistant coach added.
Both were smoking cigarettes and were in a somewhat depressed mood.
Pochettino, in particular, saw that the players he fired had come back and did it to his team, and the more he thought about it, the more he felt a pain in his heart.
Soon, the second half of the game began, and the players and coaching staff of both sides walked onto the pitch to start the second half of the battle.
While Pochettino was expecting the team to score a quick equalizer, the afterglow often swept towards Chen Yufeng.
He really didn't want that player to play any more.
Even if their previous relationship was not bad......
