Sevilla manager Sampaoli sat with player Correa in the post-match press conference.

They were the standout packs of the day, contributing disaster level play in their respective positions.

Walking together after the game, it can be regarded as taking care of each other and understanding each other.

"Uh......"

The first reporter to be called up to ask a question, apparently a pro-Seville reporter, stood up and thought about it for a long time with the microphone, but still couldn't find any way to get in.

What to ask?

How do you make excuses for Sampaoli and the players?

"Sorry, I didn't have the questions ready, so please come first."

After another ten seconds, the reporter said this in an awkward atmosphere, and then sat down in his seat.

"Then I'll do it."

The British press stood up with a wicked smile on their faces, they had been waiting for this opportunity for a long time.

For them, it's a sure thing to be on the same side as the English team when they go out on the field.

After returning to the Premier League, everyone will definitely have their own position and support, and they will also create some negative news about Leicester City and Leicester players because of their attention.

But now at this moment, they have only one home team, and that is Leicester City.

"May I ask Mr. Sampaoli, for what you said before the game about the delicacy of the Spanish team, we don't seem to see it on the pitch, do you disdain to use it?"

Some British media mentioned this: "There is also the diversity in the attack, the flexible play of each player who has the probability to be involved in scoring goals, and it is not shown. ”

'Leicester played a multi-point game instead, with four players scoring in the game.

"Is there anything you would like to say about the fact that you could swap the two team crests on the scoreboard to achieve the kind of pomp and circumstance you are talking about?"

A male reporter from Sky Sports attacked Lingyun and took the difficulty to the extreme as soon as he came up.

Since you are confident before the game, and you can't play what you say on the field, then get ready for trial.

No one in this world loves someone who can only talk, except in certain cases.

'We didn't play with the kind of pressing that we did in the league, we didn't play the attacking design that we did in training, and it was like we lost our soul from the second goal.

Sampaoli was already sweating profusely when he first sat here, and when he heard this kind of question at this moment, he was even more embarrassed to 'dance', some people are like this, and when they are embarrassed, they like to do some actions to cover up.

'Also, we had four shots in the first half and Leicester had five.

Sampaoli shrugged his shoulders and uttered the wise words of the Excuse Ceremony, "Obviously, we were a little less lucky, Leicester had even better luck, they got three points on five shots. ”

Is there another coach ready to press conference reversal?

His words were abstract enough to help Sevilla get two or three goals back in the press conference.

"Do you think so? Suppressive force, what suppressive force? You're only fourth in La Liga, with three teams on top. ”

Apparently the British journalists were not going to let Sampaoli go, and a female reporter from The Sun stood up and said: "And you're facing the top team in the Premier League. ”

"Everyone knows that the competition in the Premier League is very fierce, and there are no weak teams in this league gradually, and any team in front of the table has something of its own."

"Leicester City played first in this situation, even if the strength on paper is worse than Real Madrid and Barcelona, but there are still some advantages in the face of Sevilla...... Even if you don't want to believe it, that's something you have to acknowledge. ”

"After two seasons, no one still thinks that Leicester City are the good luck of the relegation team, right? It's all stereotype. ”

The Sun reporter's words are very serious and reasonable, I believe that the players of Leicester City will be stunned when they see the last sentence, when did this media support us so much?

On weekdays in the Premier League, among the most coaxed media to dig up news, there is definitely the name of The Sun.

Even if you search now, you can see the worrying reports from The Sun before the start of the game, and the candid photos of Jamie Vardy meeting the Spanish girl on the streets of Seville the night before......

"Hmmm......"

Sampaoli was thinking of excuses again, his face was red this time, he didn't come up with anything, and finally had to say: "In short, we haven't been eliminated yet, and the team will definitely prepare well for the second leg of the game and try to find something to make up for in that game." ”

"Leicester can play five in Pizjuan, why can't we play six at the King Power Stadium?"

This sentence can show Mr. Sampaoli's mental state very well, which is already completely crazy, and this sentence is used in reverse.

Five losses at home and back away games have never happened in history.

Ranieri and Mahrez, who were waiting outside the door of the "poof......" press conference, laughed directly, neither of them was a person who talked a lot outside, and their emotions would not be so obvious.

But I can't stand the sampoli abstraction......

Not far ahead, Sevilla President Castro, who was already embarrassed to hit the ground with his toes, heard the laughter, and the hatred for Sampaoli deepened in his heart.

You've lost all your face!

Obviously, we are an old powerhouse, a quasi-giant team in Spain, and a star team with rich heritage and history!

As a result, Leicester City can now openly mock us!

But we can't fight back yet!

The 0-5 score was not only engraved on the scoreboard, but also on his Castro's face.

So, when Sampaoli walked out of the press conference sweating profusely, Castro couldn't help but say, "Prepare for the next game against Leicester City, if you become a Champions League 16thman, I want you to announce your resignation at the press conference." ”

"Resign?"

Sampaoli didn't expect Castro to speak so bluntly, and after being stunned for a moment, he said: "I won't resign Mr. Castro, our contract is two years." ”

"If you want to terminate my contract, then please fulfill the liquidated damages in the contract."

"My coaching staff follows me all over the place, and if I lose my job because of my problems, the club has to pay them that money according to the contract."

Since both sides have no willingness to cooperate, there is no need to violate anything, just tear your face and spread the words.

It's okay to terminate the contract, but resignation is a fool's dream.

"Mr. Sampaoli."

Castro used honorifics, although slowly, but his tone was full of gnashing of teeth: "Have we ever spoken to each other, you promised the Champions League quarter-finals and the top four in the league?" ”

"I know the contract, but you also know the unspoken rules of the industry, sometimes the person who loses his trust first will choose to break up with dignity instead of messing around."

"I understand." Sampaoli held his stomach and didn't pretend to be anything, and confronted him head-on: "But we, I'm afraid we won't be able to break up with dignity." ”

"Then get out of here now! No need to wait until the end of the second leg! Castro suddenly became furious, and his voice came directly into the press conference room, so that the interviews inside were directly suspended.

At the far end, Chen Yufeng, who happened to pass here, also looked at the probe, after all, everyone had some curiosity in their bones.

"Do you hear that?"

Castro ignored the fact that countless media reporters had already run over, pointed to Sampaoli's chest and said: "I will pay the termination fee in full, the place where you are now is the Pizjuan Stadium, I allow you to pack up your personal belongings left here!" ”

"Then, get out of my court!"

"I ......" Sampaoli felt a myriad of eyes cast behind him, and he was about to say something, but was interrupted by Castro, who was louder.

"No more of you! Don't worry about anyone else on the team, I'll immediately recruit the second team manager to take your place, and then find a new manager! ”

Castro was already carried away with anger, "I will inform the media about this after the Leicester interview, even if this scandal leads to me leaving the team, I will make this decision, understand?" ”

It stands to reason that this matter must require internal consultation and the synthesis of opinions from multiple parties.

It's really unkind for him to do so.

But who is holding him back now?

"Good, good, good......" Sampaoli said three good words with different emotions in a row, and then turned to leave.

Correa, who had been standing beside the two of them, had long been at a loss as if she had been frightened.

…………

In the evening, Leicester City took a flight back to the East Midlands and was picked up by coach back to Leicestershire.

They meet at a barbecue restaurant they frequent, filling the fatigue and hunger of the long journey while celebrating.

This barbecue restaurant is actually the one where Ranieri asked everyone to make pizza in the early days.

Every time they come back here, Leicester players feel like they're where their dreams began.

There are always countless courageous beginnings in the process of great things, and from the first clean sheet in the Premier League, the cohesion of their team has reached the pinnacle.

It's hard to describe in words how far their relationship has come after such a long time together.

And that's just part of the story, they have other emotions and perspectives poured into this team that will become the most valuable assets of their careers.

"Mr. Vichai said that the Champions League bonus, the club does not take a penny, all of it is given to us as a bonus."

During the meal, an assistant coach excitedly remarked, "Since we don't have Champions League points, we can only take the most basic book bonuses, but it's a lot of money." ”

"In the group stage alone, we received close to six million euros in prize money, after the first knockout game, we were almost certain to reach the quarterfinals, and once we won all two legs to reach the quarterfinals, we have around five million euros in prize money."

The prize money in the Champions League is broadly divided into three categories, one is the basic bonus, one is the appearance fee, and the other is the win, draw and loss bonus.

Leicester City won a lot of games in the group stage, and they almost got the winning bonus, plus the basic prize and appearance fee, it is reasonable to get nearly 6 million euros.

As for the knockouts, this is a place where prize money is doubling all the time.

As the assistant coach said, if Leicester City win two and reach the quarterfinals, four or five million is basically a relatively safe number.

"A lot of people are now getting an eight-figure annual salary, and these bonuses are only a drop in the bucket."

Chen Yufeng raised his head during the meal and said with a smile: "But I hope everyone will also use the bonus as motivation, this is not only money, but also represents honor." ”

"And, think about the staff of the team, who have been with us for so long, helping us with everything we do, and not getting paid much."

"These winnings are shared among them, and it's enough to change the lives of many of them."

The composition of the first team is generally around 24 players, but the prize money is distributed among all members of the first team, including the coaching team, as well as the staff team.

Generally speaking, the number of people who divide the money is around 40 people.

This means that once Leicester City reach the quarter-finals, each of them will receive around 250,000 euros, which will be doubled one step further.

Although the share to be shared may vary depending on the degree of importance.

But in any case, a bonus of hundreds of thousands of euros is enough to allow many staff members to live another level of life.

Some of them have an annual salary of tens of thousands of euros, and after deducting high taxes and fees, they can only be said to maintain their family life.

"It's still Yufeng who remembers us." Leicester City's equipment administrator, Holman smiled, an uncle in his sixties.

He was one of the happiest people to hear the news of the prize money.

"Why doesn't Mahrez think about me? I accompany you every time I enter the ice treatment room, and I obviously don't have to worry about fatigue and injury, but I still have to suffer with you. Lewis, the assistant of the training equipment, joked.

The relationship between them and the players is still very good, and the players, as people who live in the spotlight every day, have gradually lost some of their normal lives, and it is even difficult to be a normal person again.

At this time, the existence of these people is crucial.

They have nothing to do with football, and every time I come into contact with them and talk to them, the players find something strange, a freshness, a feeling that is both plain and precious.

Therefore, everyone is very open, and there will be no gap between your annual salary of seven or eight figures and my annual salary of five figures.

"Why didn't I think about it? Didn't I just hear the news? Unconvinced, Riyad Mahrez said he was the most boyish man in the team.

It was quite cute before I didn't have a beard, but when I had a beard, it felt a little weird, and it made other people feel a little disgusting.

'So, how strong does Mahrez think we can play? How much money do we get? Lewis, the training equipment assistant, asked with a smile, they play a role in livening up the atmosphere every time.

"If you don't draw Real Madrid and Barcelona in advance, there is hope for the semi-finals."

Mahrez patted his chest confidently while eating barbecue, "Believe me, this time you will definitely make a lot of money, 400,000 bonuses are secure, take your family on vacation." ”

"Cut ......" Even though his eyes were a little shining, Lewis still said teasingly: "Will the semi-finals stop?" I thought you were going to make it to the finals, but I didn't have any energy. ”

"I really want to give you my shirt and let you play."

Mahrez rolled his eyes, "But if you accompany me for a few more treatments, I will fight with them, after all, with a healthy body can pursue honor." ”

"It's rumored that Mahrez is a, and every time he has such an intimate ice therapy, he has a big man to accompany him." Lewis shouted, amusing the many people who were eating at the scene.

In this relaxed and cheerful atmosphere, it was again drinking water Godlinkovo raised his mobile phone.

He is one of the few players who likes to look at his phone while eating, and he catches some news every time.

"Scandal! Sevilla president Fidel Castro clashed with coach Sampaoli! Castro unilaterally announced Sampaoli's dismissal! Seville's internal contradictions intensify! ”

Drinkwater followed the rhythm of the exclamation point and uttered the story in a colorful voice.

The players on the scene all sighed, only Chen Yufeng and others were still eating with their heads bowed, and they knew the news in Seville......

This kind of inadvertently knocking the opposing head coach out of class is really intoxicating.

"Historically, Ranieri was out of class during this period, but in this life, with Kante, with the help of Achraf, Odegaard, Klose and others."

Chen Yufeng, who remembered something, muttered a few words to himself and snickered, "It shouldn't be." ”

As for himself?

Needless to say, the butterfly effect he brought about has indirectly affected many things.

Not to mention, the number of goals created in a single season is tens of plus.

The meal didn't last long, and the players needed to get enough sleep and go back to their homes early.

Over the next few days, Ranieri arranged a small amount of technical and tactical training to solve some problems in the single scene of the game, and the rest of the time was mostly recovery training.

It's March, the end of a season, and there's no need to train hard.

This is a team that has been running in for almost two years, and basically there will be no big problems.

If you can't kick it, that's the hard power gap and the attitude gap.

It doesn't have much to do with technique and tactics anymore.

Chen Yufeng also trained his physical fitness during this period, and he was already preparing for a large increase in March.

The initial plan is for extra points to come after the Premier League game against Hull City, when Leicester City will have an 11-day break and their next opponent will be Sevilla FC who visit the King Power Stadium with a five-goal deficit.

As March is a big month of international break, Belgian national team coach Wilmots has repeatedly tested Chen Yufeng's state and desire to play, hoping that he can run in with the team.

After all, next year, the World Cup, a super-sized competition that attracts the attention of the whole world, is coming.

Can you play more games with the team or play more games with the team.

However, after looking at the matchup table of Belgium in the next few games, Chen Yufeng still communicated with Wilmots in a negotiable tone.

"Leicester City are currently competing for the title on three fronts, so it's really hard to get out of it, and I hope Mr Wilmots understands that one more front will break my rhythm."

"I won't go to the two friendlies and I'll report back to the team on June 6, when the sixth round of the European qualifiers against Estonia comes in."

"Also, if Leicester City reaches the Champions League final, this game against Estonia will also have to be absent (snickering)."

Chen Yufeng expressed his desire in a joking tone at the end.

He believed Wilmots could understand him.

It is basically decided to leave the team next season, and whether it can help his Bole club to win the honorary slam, and also help himself to win the honorary grand slam of the Premier League, depends on the last two or three months.

It's a bit unwise to be distracted from playing those belly teams in Europe.

The World Cup is close and far away.

With one less front, Chen Yufeng can improve his speed more, and when the quality of all aspects comes up, are you still afraid that the run-in will not be good?

…………

On February 28, the 26th round of the English Premier League arrived, and Leicester City hosted Liverpool.

It was also their first home game in the second half of the month, and they returned to the King Power Stadium after a long absence, and the home fans were enthusiastic and gave the home team very high support from the start.

Leicester City's players also completely let go in this game and started the battle with Liverpool with ease.

Their relaxed state seems to be not facing a big 6 team, but more like facing a mid-table team in the Premier League.

I don't know if this is the confidence of the top team in the Premier League or the confidence of the Champions League quarter-finals.

In short, just one word, dry!

"Leicester City played very aggressively today, this is the fourth time they have threatened Liverpool's goal in a short period of time, if it weren't for Jamie Vardy and Shin Okazaki's feet not being good today, Liverpool's door would have been pierced many times."

Premier League commentator Zhan Jun is still sitting in the commentary seat conscientiously, and his hoarse and passionate commentary is his trademark: "After the introduction of Mane, Liverpool's front trident has basically taken shape, and they have recently played a wave of consecutive wins. ”

"But looking at the situation today, maybe Leicester City is their terminator."

"Hehe......" Director Zhang Lu smiled beside him, believing that Zhan Jun, who is a Liverpool fan, was more mixed after saying this.

"Drinkwater! After Emrejan, some fans jokingly call him my younger brother, I don't know if I will pick a son from the Premier League in the future, hahaha......"

"Leave it to Mahrez, and do you want to solve the problem with a breakthrough?"

"It's passed! Mid lane, small penalty area line! A volley! ”

"It's in! Vardy broke the deadlock and Leicester City led Liverpool 1-0! ”

"In the 32nd minute of the game, Leicester City swept the unstoppable momentum and took the lead in penetrating Liverpool's goal!"

"Will there be more?!"

“……”

"Mahrez came to send this corner, he usually came in exchange with Chen Yufeng, I would like to ask Zhang Lu Guide, what do you think, under what circumstances will Mahrez go to the penalty kick?" Zhan Jun looked at Zhang Lu next to him.

"Yes, I think so, see if Chen Yufeng is tired, whether the desire to score is strong, if it is strong, he will arrange for Mahrez to go, anyway, captain, is it convenient?" Zhang Lu laughed after guiding him.

"Hahaha......"

Zhan Jun also laughed, and then began to stare at the screen: "The commentary gave the camera to Chen Yufeng, could this be a hint?" ”

"Mahrez! This ball is out! ”

"Matip's clearance! He was originally a midfielder, but due to the lack of manpower in the Liverpool central defender position, he was put in the central defender position by Klopp, and his performance was not bad! ”

"Two penalty positions! Chen Yufeng had been waiting for a long time, and volleyed with one shot! Will there be a goal? ”

"There it is!! World Wave!! Nice volley, all in one go!! ”

Zhan Jun's excitement fell, and Director Zhang Lu added next to him, "When the director camera arrived, I had a hunch, but I didn't expect him to score this goal." ”

"In this way, before the first half of the game is over, Leicester City will lead 2-0, and Chen Yufeng has also scored his 28th goal of the season, 30+ away from the Premier League, soon!"

"The record is waiting for him ahead!"

“……”

"Three to zero! Achraf's assist helped Chen Yufeng score his 29th goal of the season! It's simply overwhelming! ”

"Scoring twice at his feet is like a common thing, there is no difficulty!"

"In this case, it seems that a complete victory is inevitable, we see that Klopp's expression is already a little hideous, he and Chen Yufeng are old rivals, the two still have some conflicts at the beginning of last season, but they have already been released."

“……”

"Okay, let's congratulate Leicester City and congratulate Chen Yufeng! They put on a great game for the fans. ”

"Let's go back to the King Power Stadium in March and watch Leicester City host Hull City and Sevilla!"

When the referee's whistle sounded, the 26 rounds of the Premier League officially came to an end.

On one side of the stands, Jones stood up contentedly, hugged the old man in the same factory beside him, and let out an exclamation; "It's been a long time since I've been back to the King Power Stadium, and it's cool to watch the game here!"

"What's even more damn cool is that Liverpool, which was out of reach before, is now easily pressed under our feet and rubbed!"

"I have a hunch that we will be able to win other titles this season!"

Jones raised his right hand in a triumphant gesture, and his image was also captured by the cameras in the stadium and was chosen as the cover headline by countless media outlets.

[3-0 victory over Liverpool!] Leicester City continue to lead the Premier League! Chen Yufeng scored his 29th goal of the season! 5 goals away from the record! 】

…………

On 4 March, the first game of the month arrives, with Leicester City hosting promoted Mahr City as their season opener rivals.

A fresh start has arrived, and Leicester's players have shown high spirits.

This month itself has few games, the overall schedule is not chaotic, and their goals are clear, first, to retain the top spot in the Premier League, and second, to advance to the last four of the FA Cup.

As for the third point, the victory over Sevilla to reach the quarter-finals is no longer on the table, as it is a game that does not have to be feared at all.

It's hard to get on the Under-19s in Sevilla......

"I vaguely remember that Leicester City's opening game of the season did not go well, they were cornered by Hull City, almost upset, but fortunately they came back in the end."

"The hardships of this field have created the tenacity of Leicester City."

"They rarely have problems because they have a stable mentality."

"You know, some strong teams basically hang chains at two ends in three days, and Leicester City drops the chain once a month is considered surprising."

“……”

"Chen Yufeng's breakthrough with the ball, his pendulum pass was once considered to be the only inheritor of intangible cultural heritage after Da Luo, of course, this is what fans jokingly called."

"A cross!"

"Klose! Start and score! 1 to 0! Let's hope this one will bring out Leicester City's good fortune throughout the month of March! ”

"After such a long time, Chen Yufeng's Full Moon Scimitar cross has changed from his first choice to his ability after the third choice, but we must never forget what Chen Yufeng relied on to make a name for himself!"

"It's still a good way for him to help the team score!"

"Always!"

“……”

"Fight back quickly! Canter! His value in Germany is already 60 million euros, and after following Leicester City for so long, his ability to propulsion with the ball has developed very well! ”

"Pass it to Mahrez! Mahrez misses! Jamie Vardy takes the ball! Beautiful, single-handed! ”

"Vardy! The selfless distribution of the ball! Now it's Chen Yufeng who is facing the goalkeeper single-handedly! ”

"Will the 30th goal of the league come today?!"

"Outside instep volley! No more suspense! Chen Yufeng scored this goal! The 30th goal of the league is here!! ”

"This is a historic moment! Chen Yufeng has become the first striker in the Premier League to score 30+ goals in recent seasons! This is also the highlight of Asian American players in the top five leagues! ”

"In the 27th round of the league, Chen Yufeng's goal exceeded 30! We can even expect his 40th goal in the Premier League! ”

"Unbeatable play!"

“……”

"It's over, another clean sheet! Leicester City played 90 minutes of suppression! Annihilation War! They didn't give Hull the slightest chance! ”

"I believe that today's protagonist must be Chen Yufeng, who has completed a memorable achievement!"

"The miracle of a late bloomer continues, will he usher in a higher peak of his career? When is the state of regression? I'm sure that's going to be the biggest concern for the fans. ”

"For himself, though, he doesn't need to think about these things."

"Please close your eyes and enjoy your moment, today's Royal Power Stadium belongs to you!"

“……”

Zhan Jun's last sentence was not that he wanted to have an embarrassing game, but that Chen Yufeng really did it at the moment.

Don't underestimate the mental fluctuation when you complete the league for the first time 30+, this is a rare moment for every goalscorer.

"Chen Yufeng! Chen Yufeng! Chen Yufeng ......!! ”

Shrouded in the cheers of the fans, Chen Yufeng crossed his hands on his hips, closed his eyes and ears to listen to the enthusiasm that arose because of him, and felt every breeze with his skin.

Everything has become an embellishment at this moment, which allows Chen Yufeng to enjoy all this better.

"Hurry, hurry! A new world famous painting is about to be born, let's go and take a picture! Hurry up, hurry up! ”

"Don't squeeze me, don't worry!"

"Don't grab the position, we have a good camera, I'll give you a copy after shooting!"

“……”

The photographer who was originally standing on the sidelines rushed to the court like crazy at this moment, they carried the camera on their shoulders, squatted on the ground, and photographed Chen Yufeng a little taller.

This is the simplest lens language, and what I want to express is very simple and rough - Chen Yufeng is very awesome.
