The midfield king of football life

Chapter 98
After the match against Eindhoven, the Eredivisie league schedule is about halfway through. In the next round of the league, Feyenoord will play away against Utrecht in the 16th round. In the 17th round, Feyenoord will play against Twente. After the 17th round, the Eredivisie league will enter the winter break.This is the time when the major clubs start to fill in the gaps in the existing lineup, preparing for the second half of the schedule.

At the end of the 15th round of the league, Feyenoord is currently ranked 27th in the Eredivisie league table with 5 points, and it is still very promising to compete for a qualification for the UEFA Champions League.

However, based on the news revealed by the major clubs, the transfer during this winter break is not lively. Maybe the major clubs are relatively satisfied with their current lineup.

At the end of the match against Eindhoven, Eindhoven's striker No. 14 Mertens exchanged his own jersey with Li Feng's jersey. This is the first time Li Feng has exchanged jerseys with others, which is also a recognition of his performance on the field.

After the game with PSV, the club gave the players two days to rest.During these two days, Li Feng sent Chen Shihan to Amsterdam.

On the way, Li Feng and Chen Shihan chatted about their plans for the winter break of this season.

"On December 12th, after the game against Twente, our winter break will arrive. There will be nearly 18 days of rest. I have to plan carefully. Shihan, do you have any arrangements here?" Li Feng asked gently.

"If you want to arrange it, of course you can. Many domestic media and companies are queuing up to invite you to come back to China as endorsements and participate in activities. I see that you are mainly focused on competitions during this time, so I didn't tell you." Chen Shihan said.

"If it's just some commercial activities, then forget it. I hope to improve my technical weaknesses during this East evil period, but I haven't figured out how to plan it yet." Li Feng said.

Chen Shihan looked at Li Feng, and then said: "I understand what you mean, I will try my best to contact you with an excellent coach during this time, and I will assign you a detailed training plan during this winter break."

"Well, if the fee is too high, forget it. If it doesn't work, I'll consult Coach Coman." Li Feng said timidly.

"You don't have to worry about the money. If your performance in the league is good, your commercial value will naturally increase. I look forward to the time when you become a star." Chen Shihan said with a smile.

After sending Chen Shihan to Amsterdam, Chen Shihan immediately got busy with her own school affairs. After Li Feng had dinner with her, she returned to Rotterdam early the next morning.

As usual, Li Feng insisted on his daily basic ball control practice.

This is Li Feng's first Eredivisie season, and half of the schedule is about to come. He feels that the current intensity of the game is no problem at all, but if he enters the double or third line next season, his physical fitness will definitely be a big problem.Therefore, Li Feng's first goal during the winter break is to further strengthen his physical fitness.

Compared with European and South American races, Asian races have poorer physical fitness, so they can only make up for this deficiency in terms of technology.

The technical characteristics of Asians are delicate footwork and relatively good pass control. Li Feng's physical fitness is very good among Asian players, but compared with tough European and African players, it still looks weak.Li Feng has been working hard in this area to improve his physical fitness to another level.In terms of foot skills, he is very good, but in fierce confrontation, his physical strength can allow players to withstand the confrontation at critical moments.

After two days of rest, Li Feng and other team members went to the club for pre-match training according to the normal time.

When he arrived at the club's training ground, Li Feng saw that his teammates looked relaxed, probably because they killed Eindhoven.After defeating Eindhoven at home, Feyenoord has won 3 consecutive victories, and the internal atmosphere is much more relaxed than before.

Seeing Li Feng coming, Klassie came over immediately and asked, "Feng, where are you going to vacation during the winter break? 45 days is quite a long time. I heard that this season is very lively in your hometown. Isn't Chinese New Year fun?"

Li Feng heard Klassie crackling and talking a lot, but only heard the key point of the Spring Festival.Li Feng said with a smile: "The Chinese New Year will be less than a month after the winter break. You don't have time to go to China for vacation. However, as you said, the Chinese Spring Festival is the most lively festival in the world. The best food and fun are open to everyone during the Spring Festival. Another feature is that there are many people."

Klassie couldn't help but feel a little disappointed when Li Feng said that the Chinese Spring Festival was after the winter break.

Seeing Klassie's expression, Li Feng continued, "If I have time, I will invite you to China for the Spring Festival. If the club allows, I really want to go back for the Spring Festival. I hope that our schedule will not be too tight and it will not be too important."

The winter break is an important time window for every club. Teams that performed unfavorably in the first half of the schedule will desperately grab points after the winter break to ensure that they will not fall into the danger of relegation.Feyenoord had this problem last year.

Most of Feyenoord's players will find a tourist resort to go on vacation during the winter break to spend time with their families.Li Feng gave himself extra training during the winter break, which other people could not understand.

In their eyes, football players are just a profession, and they will never let work intervene in their lives during non-working hours.Unlike Li Feng, he burdened himself too much. If he wanted to do something for domestic football, the premise was that he had to make himself stronger.

When Coach Koeman came to the training ground, all Feyenoord players did not dare to neglect and quickly gathered together.

"Everyone, before the winter break, we still have two tough games to fight, one is against Utrecht and the other is against Twente. I hope that in these last two games, we can have a good performance, so that everyone's winter break may be easier. Otherwise, we may arrange a long friendly match before the end of the winter break, which may disturb your beautiful holiday." Coach Koeman said lightly.

Klassie muttered with a laugh: "An iron head is an iron head, use this method to disgust us."

The opponent Udler in the next game is now ranked 13th in the league. In order to ensure that they do not fall into the relegation zone in the second half, they will still try to grab points at home.Although Feyenoord is now ranked fifth, they still have a long way to go before competing for the championship.So in the next game, both sides will not stay strong.
