The game was a climax, and the game was a success.

Chapter 179 Sixty new stars, the next midfield master!

With the whistle of the end of the game, Leicester City ended the bloody massacre.

Post-match statistics show that the rhythm of the entire game was almost under the control of the home team:

Number of shots in the whole game, 23 to 3!

Ball possession rate 7 to 3!

The score was 5 to 0!

Just three words, pressing and kicking!

It is worth mentioning that in the two recent encounters between the two teams, Burnley lost a terrifying nine goals, but only scored a pitiful one!

Burnley’s head coach and players all looked confused and helpless.

There was only one thought in my mind:

Lanshou Xianggu.

Why am I always the one who gets hurt? !

Vardy, who scored twice in this game, was elected the best player of the game for the first time.

However, everyone can see that without Ling Feng’s organization and threatening passes in the midfield, Leicester City would not have pressed Burnley to the ground and rubbed it crazily throughout the game,

and Vardy would not have easily scored twice!

Even if he did not win the best player of the game.

However, in this game, Ling Feng contributed two assists again, thus becoming the first player in the Premier League this season to reach ten assists!

And it took him only seven games to achieve this achievement!

This achievement not only allowed Ling Feng to complete the achievement of [Premier League assists in double] and get two free attribute points as a reward.

It also made him the fastest player to send out ten assists since the establishment of the Premier League!

After the game, major media newspapers rushed to report the process and results of this battle between the newly promoted teams.

Because, after the end of this game, Burnley still ranked at the bottom of the league.

Leicester City, which was promoted to the Premier League with them, temporarily surpassed Chelsea, which has not yet kicked off, with the advantage of goal difference and temporarily ranked first in the league!

The same promoted team, the league rankings at the top and bottom

Such a strong contrast surprised many fans and football experts.

“What medicine did these people in Leicester City take? Why are they so fierce?!”

“This is a newly promoted team?!”

“Does it mean that they are planning to copy the Kaiserslautern myth?!”

The Kaiserslautern myth is a miracle in world football.

In the 1996-97 season, the German second division team Kaiserslautern, led by head coach “Otto the Great” Otto Rehhagel, first won the German Football League Championship.

And was promoted to the German Football League as a champion.

Then, in the first season after being promoted to the Bundesliga, Kaiserslautern won the Bundesliga championship shockingly, becoming the second team in the world to win the second-tier league championship and then the top league championship in the next season!

So far, people have called the achievement of a team winning the second-tier league and the top league championship for two consecutive seasons the “Kaiserslautern Myth”.

However, many people still believe that there are many factors for Leicester City to top the league after seven rounds of games.

At present, they have shown a very strong competitive state when facing the teams ranked in the middle and lower reaches of the league and the relegation teams last season.

But they failed to win against the top-ranked giants, such as Chelsea and Arsenal.

This shows that their hard power is still far behind the giants.

The reason why they defeated Everton, Manchester United and other top-ranked teams in succession was mainly due to the team’s tactics of attacking instead of defending, which allowed the team’s core Ling Feng to give full play to his offensive talent and raised the offense of the entire team to a higher level!

However, Leicester City still has to fight on two fronts this season, and the depth of the lineup is insufficient, and there will definitely be problems in the later stages of the season.

At that time, once the core players are injured or rested, the Blue Fox will show its true colors and slowly return to its own position.

However, with the offensive firepower shown by Leicester City, there is no need to worry about relegation this season.

Unlike most newspapers that analyze Leicester City’s future prospects, The Times focuses on the individual performance of the players.

They directly posted an online vote on their official website, and the content of the vote is:

“Can Ling Feng break Thierry Henry’s league assist record this season?”

“Yes or No?”

In the 2002-03 season, “The Great” Thierry Henry made 20 assists in the league.

Created a record for assists in a single season for Premier League players!

What’s more worth mentioning is that in addition to 20 assists in the league, Henry also scored 24 goals in the league!

The big double-double data of goals and assists is enough to prove that Henry in his prime is definitely the first person in the Premier League!

And now, in his first Premier League season, Ling Feng’s assist ability has been compared by the media with the legendary Premier League “Emperor” Henry.

This is definitely a great recognition of his personal ability and performance on the field!

Of course, the British media is not bragging.

You know, 11 assists in seven games, an average of 1.6 assists per game, which is worthy of bragging for any player.

What’s more, this player is a local hukou!

According to this assist efficiency, if the number of appearances is the same as Henry, at the end of the season, Ling Feng’s single-season assists will reach a terrifying 60!

Of course, this is only theoretical.

Assists are not something that can be done just because you want to.

Compared to a goal that can be scored by one person, assists that require cooperation are more difficult.

Because assists depend half on the passer and half on the receiver!

No matter how good a player is at feeding, he cannot guarantee that every hot cake he sends will go into his teammates’ mouths.

What the master of feeding cakes fears most is that his teammates are unwilling to eat the cakes they have sent to their mouths, or even stuffed them into their mouths, and they have to spit them out!

You know, eating cakes is also a skill!

This online voting immediately aroused the interest of fans, and they all ran to vote.

Most importantly, the results of this online voting will be announced at the end of the season.

Then ten lucky viewers will be drawn and given a free membership of The Times for one year, plus one thousand pounds per person!

One year of newspapers is nothing.

The key is one thousand pounds, which is not a small amount.

All they have to do is to enter the website, fill in their personal information after voting, and they will have the opportunity to get one thousand pounds.

Therefore, in just two days, more than tens of thousands of people participated in the voting.

Seventy percent of the voters believe that Ling Feng can break Henry’s league assist record this season!

The core midfielder of Leicester City has delivered an amazing eleven assists in the first seven rounds of the Premier League.

In other words, in the next thirty-one rounds of the league, he only needs to deliver nine more assists to tie Henry’s league assist record.

If he delivers ten assists, he can break Henry’s record and become the player with the most assists in a single season in the Premier League!

It seems that Ling Feng has enough games to break Henry’s league assist record.

However, the problem is that Ling Feng may be injured or rested, and may not be able to play the remaining thirty-one rounds of the league.

Even if he finishes the remaining thirty-one rounds of the league, he may not be able to assist in every game.

No one knows what will happen in the future.

However, the public believes that with Ling Feng’s assist ability, it is entirely possible to deliver ten assists in the remaining league!

The possibility is still very high!

Ling Feng, who is at the Belvoir base, also learned about this online vote through social media.

So, he also specially shot a short video and uploaded it to his major social media accounts.

The content of the short video is that he took a laptop, entered the official website of The Times, and participated in the online voting process.

Of course, he voted “yes”

Then, he also started a challenge on his social media account:

If he can break Henry’s record after the end of the season, he will draw ten lucky people in the comments and send his autographed jersey and a reward of 5,000 pounds!

If he can’t break the record, he will also draw ten lucky people in the comment area and send 5,000 pounds to each person!

This reward is five times higher than that of The Times!

And within just a few minutes after he posted the post, the number of comments, likes and reposts of this post rose at an astonishing speed!

Ten minutes later, his agent Mendes called him and felt that he was not doing a good job and was too ostentatious.

Obviously, doing so will only make the other 19 Premier League teams focus more on him and prevent him from breaking the assist record.

After all, no one wants to be the background board for Ling Feng to break the assist record

However, in Ling Feng’s view, this is not important at all.

Originally, as the core of Leicester City, even if these things did not happen, the other 19 Premier League teams would have focused on guarding him!

The reason for doing so is to be confident of his own strength

A kind of self-confidence is also an internal spur.

Ling Feng certainly hopes to break Henry’s assist record and become the man who can feed the ball the most in a single season!

He also believes that he has the ability to do it, so why not admit that he is strong?

As a professional player, self-confidence is very important.

If you don’t have confidence in yourself, how can you beat your opponent on the court and win the victory and championship? !

After listening to Ling Feng’s explanation, Mendes also felt that it made sense.

Since he came into contact with this young man, he has long discovered that Ling Feng is the kind of person with mature thinking and independent thinking.

He is willing to listen to the advice of others.

However, he will also stand firm and not easily shaken in what he thinks is right.

What surprised the agent tycoon the most was that he thought of another Portuguese guy who signed with him at the age of 18 from Ling Feng’s words.

Like Ronaldo when he was young, this young man is also full of confidence!

Mendes suddenly had a premonition that if this young man continued to grow at this terrifying rate, he might one day become another trump card under his command.

. . .

Seeing that The Times had done such a wave of operations to attract attention and traffic, The Guardian, which is collectively known as the three major newspapers in the UK with The Times and The Daily Telegraph, finally did a wave of operations full of practical information:

On October 8, The Guardian launched a new special column called “Next Generation”

Starting from this year, the newspaper will invite ten football experts in October every year, and then let them select twenty Premier League new stars and forty promising stars from all over the world through strict data analysis and game performance.

A total of sixty people, known as the sixty new stars!

Most of the sixty new stars on this list are new stars who have emerged this year or have shown amazing potential before.

Among them, there are also many names that are familiar to hardcore fans like Ling Feng.

The 40 world rising stars are divided into three regions: Asia, America, and Europe.

Asia is not worth mentioning.

Among the rising stars in America, Malcolm, a young player from Corinthians in the Brazilian league, is the most famous.

Among the rising stars in Europe, it is the region with the highest success rate in the future.

Led by Rennes’ young player Ousmane Dembele, Belgian prodigy and FM super demon Tielemans, Porto’s youngest captain Ruben Neves, Frankfurt striker Jovic, etc., are all players who will perform well in the five major leagues in the future!

And the top 20 rising stars selected from each Premier League team are many potential rookies worthy of attention.

For example, Dominic Solanke, who led Chelsea to win the FA Youth Cup, and Marcus Rashford, who served as the captain of Manchester United’s U19 team before the age of 17, are among the best.

As for Leicester City’s rising star, it is naturally Ling Feng, who is 19 years old this year and has already shined in the Premier League!

He is also the only player who can start in the Premier League among the top 20 Premier League new stars.

If the top 60 new stars are ranked, Ling Feng is definitely the first!

The football experts of The Guardian also wrote relevant information and scout reports for each new star, plus a brief comment.

For example, Rashford’s comment is “a wing star who is good at breaking through”

And Ling Feng’s comment is:

“The next midfield master!”

It can be seen how optimistic The Guardian is about his future and development prospects!

The British media have seen the “wind chasing boy” Michael Owen and the “violent little tank” Wayne Rooney who emerged out of nowhere;

They have also seen “Little Beckham” David Beckham’s half-court lob shot, and “little threat” Jack Wilshere’s single challenge to Ha Baibu.

However, they have never seen a super genius who can control the overall situation in the midfield at the age of only 19 and has a mature style of play!

Perhaps Fabregas is one of them.

However, in terms of performance and statistics, Ling Feng is now no less than Fabregas back then!

Especially at the national team level, the 19-year-old Ling Feng is already the core of the Three Lions midfield.

And the 19-year-old Fabregas is just a substitute for the Spanish “Hasbeck”.

Of course, the situations and lineups of the two national teams are different, so there is not much comparison.

However, in the view of The Guardian and many British media, Ling Feng’s future achievements will definitely surpass Fabregas!
