Chapter 140: A Perfect Ending in April! Chen Yufeng's 'teachings'! (Ask for a commuter pass)
'Leicester beat Chelsea to reach the FA Cup final! So far, except for the League Cup, the other three lines have never been left behind! - Sky Sports
Post-match reports were sent out quickly, but with the competition intensifying in the major leagues at the end of the season, the news was not mainstream.
"RB Leipzig and Borussia Dortmund fell together, and Bayern Munich won the Bundesliga championship ahead of schedule with an absolute advantage!" - Bordeaux newspaper.
"Who's going to win the Serie A? Juventus, Rona, Napoli, three arrows! No one is left behind, and the suspense may last until the last moment! - Torino Sport
"Atletico Madrid lost the right to fight for the title! The winner of La Liga this season will be decided between Real Madrid and Barcelona, and Atletico Madrid has not changed its status as the third oldest in 10,000 years! After losing in the Champions League, Simeone's side lost again in La Liga! βAs
'Leicester are neck with Chelsea! Who will win the Premier League? Will a defeat to Leicester City in the FA Cup semi-finals have an impact on Chelsea's eventual title contention? βThe Sun
The mainstream page has been more occupied by the title competition situation of the major leagues these days, or some lace news about the players, the struggle between clubs, the news of transfers at the end of the season, etc.
Only when the Champions League comes out, everyone's focus will be more unified.
Leicester's FA Cup victory, after a wave of repercussions, was not too loud.
It is secretly surprising, impressive, and expectant of Leicester's bright future this season, but will not be commented on much.
After the initial carnival, the team didn't get excited for too long, and threw themselves into a new round of preparations.
The Devils' January isn't over yet, and they must be ready for the next two games.
If you are a little careless, you will lose all the games.
When Chen Yufeng was dining in the team's cafeteria that day, he was asked an interesting question by Vichai's son Ayawat, "Being a businessman pays attention to property allocation and risk control. β
"For Leicester City, the asset allocation can be said to be the Premier League, FA Cup, and Champions League, and risk control is the possibility and uncertainty of competing for these three titles."
"So, from a player's point of view, how do you think you should optimize your configuration to minimise risk and maximise your benefits?"
Ayawat is a top student, and when his father trained him, he was trained as the successor of the Blue Fox.
He also likes to drag on some of these topics.
"A businessman is not the same as an athlete."
In this regard, Chen Yufeng gave his own answer, "Just like the uncertainty in your words. β
"In the business world, this uncertainty can be infinite, and there are many factors that can be disturbed by the outside world."
"But players are different, players hold their fate tightly in their own hands, and they can use their ability and hard work to minimize or even eliminate uncertainty."
'For example, in the last game against Chelsea, the opponents were very strong, we played very hard, and it looked like everything had to be played with luck and desperate counts.
'But it was different, I made the right decisions in that moment, and the whole team defended the whole game with tenacity, and we all put in our own efforts, so we didn't have to fight hard in the end.
'For me, I don't need to have a team strategy or a decision about the Premier League or the Champions League. It's like asset allocation and risk control. β
'It's irresponsible on the pitch and when we come on the pitch as a group, we don't just represent ourselves.
"There is only one way for us, and that is to fight on three fronts and work hard for every game."
Chen Yufeng showed a smile, "I deepen this idea every day, and the minute I talk to you deepens it again." β
"Ayawat, if a person is not firm in one thing, always making excuses, always saying something that he has and does not have, then he will not be able to do it well."
"Maybe hard work may not be successful, but be firm and work hard, and you will have a chance to succeed."
Ayawatt definitely has the ability, but sometimes he is not strong enough.
This is probably also the reason why after Vichai's accident, he led Leicester City to relegation step by step.
Chen Yufeng is here, he can change the matter of the plane crash of Vichai, but he can't guarantee that there will be other accidents in the future.
He doesn't believe in fate, but for the club he likes, the people he respects, and he is a person who should have had a tragedy, he has to believe in his fate.
He hopes that no matter what, as long as Ayawatt is in that position, he can be a little more determined and lead the club better.
"How can I trust you to be firm enough?" Ayawatt fell into deep thought, "You're talking about space. β
"If my experience doesn't convince you, use the facts." Chen Yufeng raised his eyebrows.
The two didn't talk about it anymore, but instead talked about something light.
β¦β¦β¦β¦
On April 27, Leicester City's away Arsenal match came.
This is a replay of 28 rounds of the Premier League, and Leicester City will have the same number of rounds as Chelsea after this game.
But because there were 34 fewer rounds in the middle, after this game, they still played one less game.
Regardless, it's a game you can't lose.
Leicester City can't afford to lose and will have to hit as hard as they can against Arsenal, who are fifth in the table and somewhat out of the table, to beat Arsene Wenger's rivals.
"It's game on! You're tuning in to the replay of the 28th round of the Premier League! The two sides are Arsenal and Leicester City! β
"I think anyone who knows Leicester knows what this game means!"
"From an objective point of view, Leicester City will definitely do their best for the championship! As for Arsenal...... Their chances of finishing in the top four are slim, and they are playing more for dignity, and the whole team is already a little unhappy with the professor Arsene Wenger. β
"Rationally, Leicester have a better chance of winning, but we know that things don't often go this way, so it's up to Leicester to hold their breath."
ββ¦β¦β
"The ball is in! Klose's header! Helped Leicester City score their first goal! β
"There was no mistake! Leicester City are on their way to the Premier League title! In the past 30 minutes, even Arsenal fans have to sigh that it was Leicester City that performed better today! β
"One to zero! They took the initiative! β
"Personally, I'm still looking forward to Chen Yufeng's goal, today he returned to the wide position, it seems that in the face of a slightly more certain game, Ranieri still doesn't want to change too much, after all, they have won a lot with this lineup."
"When Chen Yufeng was on the side, he was a very sharp spear! It's more like a big net in the middle lane, which can instantly contain many enemies and make them lose their mobility! β
"Shinji Okazaki's dedication is also an important reason, he didn't start today, but the team is not short of a center forward, which is also an indisputable fact."
ββ¦β¦β
"It's coming! The goal is in!! β
"Chen Yufeng's incision shot! Heavy artillery bombardment of the door! It's not the same as his usual goals! Played beautifully! Have a good time! β
"We're looking forward to more long-range shots like this from Chen Yufeng! It will be a sign that he will become more well-rounded! β
Even though he is almost 32 years old, Chen Yufeng has not given up on improving himself at all! He's unbelievable! β
ββ¦β¦β
'Leicester have replaced their attacking players with a defence-oriented rotation for 80 minutes and it seems that Ranieri thinks the game is nine out of ten.
ββ¦β¦β
"Well, in that case, the game is coming to an end, congratulations to Leicester City, as long as they can beat West Brom in that game at the end of the month, they will have a perfect January!"
"Congratulations! I wish them the best of luck in the Premier League! β
After the game, the old professor Arsene Wenger stood on the sidelines for a long time like a father watching his children go away.
Today he was willful, did not give a post-match interview, and drove straight away from the Emirates Stadium.
The place where he had placed all his hopes was now in ruins in his heart, a sad place he would never want to come back again.
β¦β¦β¦β¦
On 29 April, Leicester City welcomed West Bromwich Albion.
It was an easy game, Ranieri was very sure to send a rotating line-up to play, and Chen Yufeng and others were all sitting on the bench to make final preparations for next month's championship.
In addition to the Champions League, the Premier League and FA Cup winners will be decided next month.
Proper rest of the top scorer within the team, this is a must.
There was little suspense in the game, with Leicester completely dominating the game from the time Albrighton scored a goal for the team.
The substitutes played very well and were very imposing.
There is an idiom called fox fake tiger power, and the story told is very easy to understand.
But in the world of football, the idiom may not be entirely pejorative, with the Foxes being Leicester City's substitutes and the Tigers being the core of the group led by Chen Yufeng.
They train together every day and enjoy the glory of the team together.
Over time, they will also have absolute confidence when facing teams in the middle and lower tiers.
Who am I usually breaking through?
Does Kanterling know?
Whose ball do I usually break when I shovel?
Does Chen Yufeng know?
So, what's your name? Although I am not as valuable as you and not as experienced as you, I am really not afraid of you.
"Beep! Beep! Beep ββ! β
When the referee finally blew the whistle for the end of the game, Ranieri and the others breathed a sigh of relief.
The rotation was successful, they got the win, and they secured the news of the players.
One to zero.
April, a perfect ending!
See you again in May, the month of the championship!
The players took a short break and they gathered at Vardy's home that night to open the champagne.
