Chapter 480 I want all the champions

The English Football League Cup, referred to as the League Cup, is a knockout football competition hosted by the English Football League.

Started in 1960, the League Cup is only open to members of the Premier League and the English Football League (English Championship, League One and League Two teams) a total of 92 teams (excluding the two upgraded teams from England Two).

Like the FA Cup, in the eyes of the Premier League teams, the cup is tasteless, and most teams will send a second team to participate in the League Cup.

But when it comes to the semi-finals, the teams will still pay attention to it, after all, this is also a championship.

On January 1, Everton will face their League Cup semi-final opponent Chelsea.

The semi-finals are two rounds, and the final of the League Cup is in February.

But Moyes is facing the troubles of happiness, because the team still retains the hope of winning the Premier League, FA Cup, and League Cup, but Everton's lineup cannot cope with the huge pressure of the third-line battle.

After training, Moyes came to the office of the boss Bill.

"Hi David."

Bill noticed that Moyes' face was not very good.

"What's wrong? Did Tang Zhenglong cause trouble again?"

"No."

"Then what else could happen?"

Suddenly, Bill's heart skipped a beat.

"Could it be that some team wants to poach you with a high salary?"

……

"nor."

Bill breathed a sigh of relief.

"What else could it be?"

Moyes held up three fingers.

"Premier League, FA Cup, League Cup, you choose one, I can only give you a championship trophy."

Bill understood immediately.

"Haha, it turns out that you are worrying about this."

"Choose."

"Do you really want to choose?"

Moyes nodded.

"That's good." Bill smiled slyly, "I want all three."

Moyes was slightly taken aback.

"All three?"

"That's right, all three are required. You can open the bonus as you like, and I will try my best to satisfy it."

Moyes shook his head, "It's not a matter of money, but that our lineup can't handle the third-line battle."

Bill stood up and poured Moyes a cup of tea, then tapped him lightly on the shoulder.

"Many fringe players are also capable, as long as you give them a chance, Gravesen, Pienaar, these people are not much worse than the main players."

"In addition, if you need to sign in during the winter break, I will fully support you."

Moyes shook his head, "You can't buy any reinforcements during the winter break."

"Then tap the potential internally. In short, I will not give up any champion."

Moyes smiled, no wonder Bill will become the boss, he has a kind of courage, maybe such a person can run a team.

Bill patted Moyes on the shoulder again, "Go, David, the goal is set, all you have to do is achieve it."

What else can Moyes say?He could only nod his head in agreement.

*****
clap clap.

Grant kept applauding.

"Quick, quicker."

After Grant took office, the tactics were actually inherited from Mourinho, and the team's offense must be advanced quickly.

Use two or three quick passes to quickly tear through the opponent's defense, then put the ball at the striker's feet, and finally score.

The ball reached Drogba's feet, the Ivorian stuck to the ball a little, and immediately lost it.

Grant immediately stopped training.

He goes to Drogba.

"Didier, what's the matter with you?"

"I didn't think about the route of the ball, so I stopped the ball."

Grant said angrily: "This is training. The opponent's defense will be tighter during the game. Do you think the opponent will give you time to think?"

"Coach, I made a mistake just once, you don't have to do this."

After taking over Chelsea after Mourinho, the pressure on Grant was already high. Although Abramovich did not make it clear, Grant understood that only the championship can satisfy the boss.

"Once? It's a matter of attitude."

Drogba was a little upset. This kind of practice of suspending training and teaching him alone was a bit humiliating.

"I hope it doesn't happen again."

Drogba nodded.

However, Drogba's basic skills were mediocre, coupled with the pressure put on him by the coach, so after a while, he made another pass error.

The moment the ball rolled off the sideline, the audience fell silent, waiting for Grant's anger to erupt.

But Grant did not explode, he threw a vest symbolizing the main force to Pizarro.

"Claudio, you will be the team's main center forward in the next League Cup."

Everyone is stupid.

"What are you doing in a daze? Keep training."

"quick!!"

*****
How gossipy is the British media?

The answer is super gossip.

Soon, news of Chelsea's infighting spread like wildfire and was known by the media.

Grant, of course, denies it.

"It's a healthy competition within the team, Drogba needs to rest, and I think Claudio has been in good form recently."

The reporter asked: "Someone saw you quarreling with Didier Drogba on the pitch. Is it true?"

Grant laughed and said, "We are men, not sissies. If my voice is louder, it is called a quarrel, then I think you are ridiculous."

"I repeat, I have no conflict with Drogba."

"Can you talk about Tang Zhenglong?"

Grant is the most upset about this topic. Why does he have to talk about Tang Zhenglong, a player who is on loan every time?
"He's from Everton now, I don't want to talk about him."

Here Grant doesn't talk about Tang Zhenglong, and the reporter over there chases after Tang Zhenglong to ask.

"Don, I heard that Drogba and Grant had a conflict. What do you think of this matter?"

"I don't know, I don't read gossip."

"Don, if Grant ends up staying at Chelsea, would you consider a permanent move to Everton?"

"Again, I can't answer that question."

"Don, I heard that you are dating the boss' daughter."

……

……

Tang Zhenglong was stunned, did he know all of this?

After thinking for a tenth of a second in his mind, Tang Zhenglong quickly reacted.

It is impossible to deny it, what if it is photographed later, but admit it?This is even more impossible.

"I don't want to talk about my private life."

"Why? Did the boss forbid you to talk about your relationship with his daughter? Don, will you be the boss of Everton?"

puff.

Are these guys' brains wide open to this extent?

"I am not obliged to report my private life to the media. If you have no questions about football, then I am leaving."

"Don, wait a minute."

"Wait a minute."

Argentina, Buenos Aires, Maradona was watching TV when he suddenly saw news about Tang Zhenglong.

"What's the news about this little bastard?"

The old horse looked at it, and suddenly flew into a rage.

"Asshole, hooked up with a new woman again, I'm so mad."

Lao Ma's thoughts went back to last summer, how stupid he was to lure wolves into the house.
