Chapter 95 Will The Suspense End?

As long as Southampton's players play hard, at least in the Championship this season, they are almost invincible.

This point was verified in the next game.

In the No.11 round, they took away Crystal Palace, which was fighting for relegation, and the two forwards each scored a goal.Queens Park Rangers lost at home to Norwich, who was originally ranked third, and were immediately overtaken by Southampton by one point...

Three days later, in the No.12 round, Southampton ushered in the South Coast Derby against Portsmouth-there was also such a derby last season, but Southampton was a League One team at that time, and Portsmouth Stanley is a Premier League team, but now, they are both Championship teams, and Southampton ranks first, but Portsmouth is only ranked No.13!

The encounters on the football field always make people sigh so easily.

Portsmouth actually performed quite well in the FA Cup last season. They once reached the final and then lost to Chelsea. In theory, they could participate in the Europa League through this channel. However, due to the new regulations, they were relegated The team is not eligible to make up, so Liverpool's qualification for the Europa League was postponed.

Their performance in the league was a mess. They were at the bottom of the points early and decided to be relegated.

This is also normal. Any relegated top league team, as long as their players are not bad, will be divided up by other teams. These giants look down on them, but the same relegation team is still very popular.

So the current Portsmouth is a completely new Portsmouth.

Except for Utaka and Kanu who stayed, the other main players have all left.

They had a hard time playing Southampton last season, let alone this season, Southampton's strength has long been beyond Portsmouth's ability to fight.

Of course, Derby can never just look at strength.

Portsmouth resisted heroically in the away game and made the Portsmouth fans who came from afar feel very happy. However, they eventually lost the game. Southampton's Mkhitaryan, Chamberlain and Lan Burt each scored a goal, and Portsmouth only relied on veteran Kanu's penalty to get back a point. Southampton defeated Portsmouth [-]-[-] at home and won two consecutive victories.

In this round, Queens Park Rangers drew [-]-[-] with fourth-ranked Swansea in an away game. Southampton once again expanded its lead, leading its opponent by three points!

"Southampton started to speed up, while Queens Park Rangers started to stop their progress! This season, the two teams have a lot of advantages. The only suspense is who can win the final championship!"

Now that the league has played 31 rounds, Southampton has scored 28 points. According to this ratio, it is a matter of time before the points exceed 23. Queens Park Rangers have [-] points, and Cardiff City, which ranks third, only has [-] points.

The media began to discuss how many points Southampton could finally score in the British Championship. Last season's champion Newcastle United scored 102 points, but this can only rank third in the history of the British Championship. Pell led Reading to get it in the 05-06 season. In that season, this rough team scored an unprecedented 106 points. Next was Sunderland in the 98-99 season. They scored 105 points, and the fourth was 00. -Fulham in the 01 season, they scored 101 points in that season, which is the only four times in the British Championship team with more than 01 points. Manchester City ranked fifth with 02 points in the 99-[-] season.

From this point of view, it is very difficult for the British Championship to get so many high scores. In fact, it is also the case. It is not uncommon to win the British Championship with a score in the early part, and it is considered a super strong team if it can reach 46 points!

After all, the strength of the teams in the English Championship is relatively average. Unlike the League One, there are always one or two outstanding teams every year.

"It's too early to talk about the points record. After all, our performance is not enough. In the next time, we will be distracted by the league and the League Cup, so we can guarantee that we will be satisfied in the top two."

During the interview, Ji Ya hypocritically said that the reporters would have booed him if they hadn't seen how happy he was in interviews...

In the next fourth round of the League Cup, Ji Ya sent most of the substitutes. Their opponent was Aston Villa, who suffered a loss from Southampton in the League Cup last season. Will not let Southampton go, they took this game very seriously, and finally drew 120-[-] with Southampton in [-] minutes, and then eliminated Southampton through a penalty shootout...

The defending champions of the League Cup were eliminated in the fourth round.

Ji Ya expressed regret after the game, but everyone knew that it was impossible for Southampton to focus on domestic cup competitions this season...

The English Championship is the most important thing, even more important than the Europa League-entering the Premier League means at least 4000 million pounds more in broadcasting rights income every season, which is not enough for several years of struggling in the English Championship. Unearned money!

In modern football, financial income is very important. Without money, you cannot buy good players and perform better.

Any sensible head coach will work hard to lead the team to the Premier League.

Ji Ya has always sent a large number of substitutes in the previous League Cup, which also proved his tendency in this regard.

After losing the League Cup, Southampton continued to advance in the British Championship. With all their main players, they defeated Derby County 14-[-] at home. Derby County, which is only ranked No.[-], is indeed not Southampton's opponent.

Queens Park Rangers continued their poor form. They were tied [-]-[-] by Bristol City, which had fallen to the bottom of the game, and Southampton extended their lead to five points in one breath!

"If this continues, will the suspense of the Championship League end soon?" a reporter exclaimed.

"I don't think so, because even if we continue to win and expand our lead, at least there is still the No.2 competition and the competition for the play-off spot. You see, the Queens Park Rangers are only leading the card now. Has Diff City scored three points? The No.1 competition has no effect for the time being, but the No.2 competition is still very fierce."

When Ji Ya was asked by a reporter, "Will the suspense of the British Championship this season end early", he answered like this.

The Southampton fans who laughed at this answer, they began to think that this head coach is really bad, always turning around and hurting people, but they are still very happy to hear it!
