The new season is coming, and the new season is coming.

Chapter 161: Today is different from the past, pass and shoot to score! [Subscribe]

After Basel defeated Switzerland, the Three Lions ended this period’s national team mission with laughter and joy.

The players returned to England on a special plane and went home.

Ling Feng, who participated in the national team competition, got a rare day off.

Starting from August 16, in just four weeks, he participated in three league games and two national team games.

Although the schedule was not too tight, he did not feel tired. However, proper relaxation is necessary

Just as Ling Feng was sitting on the sofa in his living room, browsing social media, Sophia, with a blank face, put a simple tuna salad on the coffee table:

“Boss, your tuna salad”

As his life assistant, Sophia not only drove him from time to time, arranged his daily schedule, and taught him Spanish, but also made some simple salads for him.

“Thank you.”

Pick up the plate, Ling Feng grabbed the fork, picked up a piece of boiled tuna, and put it in his mouth.

The tuna was added with a little black pepper, and the taste was pretty good.

Just as he was enjoying his lunch, the female assistant suddenly said:

“Boss, I have something to talk to you about.”

“You say.”

“I hope you can hire another private chef instead of letting me cook for you.”

This made Ling Feng a little unexpected, and he showed a puzzled expression:

“Why do you say that suddenly?”

“First of all, I am your assistant, and I should help you arrange the big and small things in your daily life. However, I know nothing about nutrition, and I can’t match a reasonable diet for you.”

“I only hope to help you with my professional knowledge. In this regard, I can’t help you.”

As a professional player engaged in high-intensity sports, the huge daily consumption requires a lot of nutrition.

Moreover, you must not be casual about diet!

The role of a private chef is to ensure that he can eat well and eat healthily in his daily life after leaving the team base.

So as to maintain a healthy body and be able to devote 100% to the game on the court!

Many strict and self-disciplined stars have their own private chefs.

Ling Feng is now in the muscle-building period, and he needs to ensure adequate nutrition while slowly increasing muscle.

It is precisely because Sofia considers that her cooking skills cannot help Ling Feng that she made this proposal.

Otherwise, with Ling Feng’s understanding of her, he would not care whether he has multiple jobs.

After hearing Sofia’s explanation, Ling Feng also understood why she suddenly brought up this matter.

In fact, he has also considered this issue.

In the team base, there are team chefs who can formulate a reasonable diet for them.

However, after returning home, he usually eats the dishes cooked by his mother Julia.

Although Julia’s cooking skills are very good, all the dishes she cooks are what he likes to eat.

However, for professional players who need to strictly control their weight and have a balanced nutrition, there are too many things that cannot be eaten.

What’s more, he will have a girlfriend in the future and plan to move out, and he can’t let Julia come to cook for him every day.

He is him, his mother is his mother, and Julia also has her own work and life, not a servant who revolves around him.

Thinking of this, Ling Feng put down the plate and nodded: “You make sense. But I don’t know any chefs.”

“Don’t worry, I will find a few candidates for you, and then let them cook for you, and then you can see which one you like.”

“Of course, you have to pay their salaries.”

“Of course!”

“By the way, the bodyguard I told you about last time, do you want me to help you pick a few candidates for the interview?”

“Okay.”

A private chef ensures his healthy diet. And a bodyguard ensures his personal health.

Now he is an England international and a millionaire.

If someone is blindly eyeing him, having a thick-waisted and strong bodyguard can save unnecessary trouble.

Seeing Ling Feng nod, Sophia took out a notebook from her trouser pocket and added the two items to the notebook while saying:

“By the way, I bought a flight ticket from Warsaw to Milan on the morning of the 18th, and also arranged a hotel for you to stay in. I have sent it to your email, please take a look and see if there is anything that needs to be changed.

Tell me”

On September 17, Leicester City will go to Warsaw, Poland to participate in the first round of the Europa League group stage.

Ling Feng had previously promised Kendall that he would go to Milan to watch her fashion show.

So, he planned to use the day off after the game to go to the “fashion capital” Milan to experience the legendary fashion week!

The next day, when Ling Feng returned to the club to report, he received good news from the club staff:

The list of candidates for the best coaches and players of the month in the Premier League in August has been released!

Among the candidates for the best coach are Mourinho, the “madman” of Chelsea, who is the favorite to win the championship, Monk, the young coach who led Swansea to three consecutive victories, Lambert, the coach of Aston Villa with two wins and one draw, and Pearson, the coach who led the newly promoted Leicester City to an outstanding performance.

And the candidates for the best player The shortlist includes players such as Costa, the popular striker who scored four goals in three rounds, Fabregas, the new offensive engine of the Blues, who scored four assists in three rounds, Sterling, the Liverpool wing killer who scored two goals and one assist in three rounds, and Sigurdsson, the “Icelandic sniper” of Swansea.

And Ling Feng, the core of Leicester City, who contributed one goal and five assists in three rounds, also entered the candidate list with his outstanding performance.

In the eyes of many fans and football experts, the winner of the best coach in August will be born from Mourinho of Chelsea and Monk of Swansea.

The former led Chelsea’s luxurious lineup to three consecutive victories, which was not surprising.

And the latter led Swansea, a mid-level team, to three consecutive victories at the start, which is even more valuable!

The award for the best player in August is very likely to be given to Kostas. One of the three players, Sta, Fabregas and Ling Feng.

Chelsea’s two new players are the absolute heroes of Chelsea’s three consecutive victories.

Although he is in a relatively weak lineup, he has handed in a blasting report card of one goal and five assists, which adds a lot of points to Ling Feng’s performance.

Ling Feng doesn’t care much about being on the list of candidates for the Premier League Player of the Month.

It’s just the Player of the Month, not the Ballon d’Or.

If he can’t get it this month, he will continue to work hard next month.

As long as he performs well every month, this award will be his sooner or later!

Until the day before the fourth round of the Premier League, the Premier League officially announced the best coach and player of August, as well as the candidates for the best team:

Costa, the striker of the Blues, who scored four goals and helped the team win three consecutive victories, defeated Ling Feng , Fabregas, Sigurdsson and others won the award of the best player of August!

And the 35-year-old Swansea coach Monk defeated Mourinho and won the best coach of August!

Although he missed his first Premier League Player of the Month award.

However, Ling Feng was still selected for the best team of August.

This also allowed him to complete the achievement of [Premier League Best Team of the Month] and obtain a system reward of some free attribute points.

It can be regarded as a small consolation.

. . .

September 13th.

After more than eight months, Ling Feng came to Stoke on the Trent River with the team again.

Britannia Stadium can be regarded as his debut place.

Looking back to the past, before he set foot on the Britannia Stadium, he was just a young player from the youth team who had just been promoted to the first team.

And now, he has become the absolute core and top player of Leicester City!

At that time, it was thanks to Ling Feng’s two assists in the FA Cup against the Premier League team Stoke City that the team achieved a reversal and advanced to the next round.

It was also because of his sudden appearance that Leicester City had the amazing drama of defeating Premier League teams all the way and finally winning the championship!

However, compared with the first encounter between the two sides, the current Ling Feng and Leicester City are no longer the same as before

Stoke City has also made reinforcements in key positions compared to last season.

Especially on the front line, they signed Hannover 96 striker Diouf for free, bought La Masia prodigy Bojan from Barcelona, ​​and loaned Nigerian winger Moses from Chelsea.

Coupled with famous players such as Arnautovic, Shawcross, Crouch and others in the team, Stoke City is definitely not an easy persimmon to squeeze.

In the last round of the game, they also defeated Manchester City at the Etihad Stadium with excellent defense.

This game was at home again.

Therefore, many football commentators and reporters predicted that Leicester City was likely to return home empty-handed.

And there was another bad news for Leicester City, who were playing away.

That was after returning from the national team match day, the team’s number one goalkeeper Schmeichel suffered from muscle fatigue.

For safety reasons, he did not follow the team to the away game, but stayed in Leicester City to rest.

In this game, Pearson used twenty

The six-year-old second goalkeeper Ben Hamer served as the starting goalkeeper.

In addition to the forced adjustment of the goalkeeper position, Pearson also made a major rotation of the starting lineup:

Knocket replaced Mahrez, and Albrighton replaced Lingard as the starting wingers on the left and right sides.

Vardy took a rest, and the Argentine center forward Ulloa got his first league start.

In the midfield, Andy King and Matty James also became the starters of this game.

Except for Ling Feng who still started, the six players in the front court were all replaced!

The four players in the back line remained unchanged.

Although half of the lineup was rotated.

However, after the opening, it was the Foxes who took the initiative on the field!

As the team’s frontcourt core, Pearson gave Ling Feng the greatest degree of freedom.

Compared with the front midfielder who mainly attacked the center, he was more like a frontcourt free man.

He can freely change positions at any time according to the situation on the field, the strength and position of the opponent’s players.

Just ten minutes into the game, Ling Feng cruised to the right, weaving through the ribs between Stoke City’s central defender and fullback, and after receiving a straight pass from Knocket, he sent a beautiful arc pass into the penalty area without stopping.

The ball just passed over Stoke City captain Shawcross, who dared not stretch his feet in front of the front point, and fell in front of Ulloa, who was sandwiched between two central defenders.

The Argentine reacted very quickly in front of the goal, just raised his leg and hit the ball into the gate guarded by Begovic!

“The ball is in!!!”

“The goal was scored by No. 23, Leonardo~~~Ulloa!”

“The Argentine scored his first goal since joining Leicester City in his first league start!”

After scoring, Ulloa rushed directly to the stands where the away fans were, raised his hand and waved it from bottom to top, like a stage performer greeting the audience.

And this novel celebration action also made the away fans extremely excited, and they shouted Ulloa’s name.

After taking the lead, Leicester City did not slow down the pace of attack, but continued to launch wave after wave of fierce attacks on Stoke City’s defense!

Perhaps it was because several rotation players in the midfield and frontcourt were starting in the league for the first time, and they were all full of energy and wanted to show their strength to the head coach and fans.

Whether it was offense or defense, Albrighton, Connockate and others worked very hard on the field, and their running figures could be seen everywhere.

Coupled with Ling Feng’s shouts from time to time on the field, Leicester City successfully turned the tables and suppressed the home team at the Britannia Stadium!

Facing Leicester City’s swift and fiery offensive, Stoke City’s players also looked at each other in confusion.

What’s going on?

In the last game against Manchester City, they were also suppressed and beaten like this.

But Manchester City is Manchester City, what the hell is Leicester City? !

However, they could never have imagined that the tactical play of Leicester City this season and last season has undergone earth-shaking changes!

Last season, facing Stoke City, Leicester City could only rely on defensive counterattacks and Ling Feng’s super pass to reverse the game.

Now, Leicester City came to their home court and directly pressed forward with a full formation, showing a fierce attack posture? !

What shocked the Stoke City players the most was Ling Feng’s huge change!

Eight months ago, Ling Feng was still a young rookie who only relied on passing and running to influence the situation;

Eight months later, his pass was still sharp and he passed wherever he pointed.

Even his speed, strength, football IQ, and even all-round abilities such as attacking the goal have improved visibly!

Moreover, he seemed extremely excited to face Stoke City, the first opponent in his career!

In the 36th minute of the game, due to the formation being pressed out and attacking Leicester City, Stoke City’s defense had more space.

After receiving the pass from Andy King, Albrighton on the left wing strode forward along the sideline, and then kicked the ball to Ulloa in the middle without hesitation.

The Argentine who stood firm in the penalty area, under the pull of Shawcross, still maintained his balance and headed the ball back.

At the same time, Ling Feng got rid of the entanglement of the back waist and accelerated to the top of the penalty area.

Looking at the ball that had not yet landed, Ling Feng had an idea and subconsciously chose to swing his leg and push it!

For fear of hitting the ball into the stands, he did not shoot with all his strength, but pressed the ball down as much as possible.

With a “bang” sound, the ball turned into a cannonball and shot out.

Under the dual blessing of the [Volley] attribute and [Push Master], this shot

The ball hit the upper right corner of the goal at both speed and angle.

Even if Begovic flew to save the ball, he couldn’t touch the ball at all.

With a swish, the net shook, and the away fans instantly burst into amazing cheers!

“Wow!”

“Ling Feng scored the second goal of the game, and also his second goal in the league!”

“This volley is definitely a strong contender for the best goal of this round of the league!”

After scoring the goal, Ling Feng just raised his arms calmly, and then showed a bright smile of a winner.
