The Legendary Chairman Novel - Chapter 052
052 Leave Us a Chance to Survive
Hu!
Taking a deep breath, Zhong Cheng tightened his collar.
In front of everyone, Zhong Cheng appeared with a very powerful side. But at this moment, Zhong Cheng was still a little nervous. After all, this was the first professional match he had led, the Championship match.
Zhong Cheng was not the type of person who was born with a strong aura, but as a head coach, he had to be strong, and he had to be very strong.
Looking at the hard face in the mirror in front of him, Zhong Cheng’s heart calmed down.
“This is just an ordinary match. You will definitely win.” Zhong Cheng looked at his face in the mirror and said very seriously. Suddenly, Zhong Cheng blinked playfully at himself in the mirror and said, “Young man, awesome!”
Turning around, Zhong Cheng’s expression instantly became cold, and his slightly narrowed eyes flashed with a soul-chilling cold light!
With a slap, Zhong Cheng pushed open the door in front of him.
In Zhong Cheng’s mind, the tyrannical music of Zhou Runfa’s appearance in “Heroic Essence” should be sounded at this time. Then, he stepped forward with a cool pace and came out of the arena in an extremely cool manner.
Zhong Cheng took out his phone and pressed the music button, thumping … thumping … thumping … thumping …
As soon as the music sounded, Zhong Cheng immediately took cool steps and slowly walked out. He kept shrugging his shoulders and putting on a cool posture, as if he was Brother Fa from “Heroic Essence”.
Zhong Cheng enjoyed it very much, but his heart was very firm. He was sure that he would win this match loyally. Derbyshire, bring it to the flag!
Zhong Cheng’s back was completely hidden at the corner.
A cleaner dressed in a grey cleaning suit stared blankly at the distant figure. Then, he turned his head to look at the sign above the door-WC!
The cleaner immediately turned his head to look in Zhong Cheng’s direction. He was stunned for a few seconds, as if he was recalling what had just happened. Then, the cleaner said, “F*ck, what a lunatic!”
Only then did the cleaner lower his head and continue to drag the floor beneath his feet.
–Division Line–
Zhong Cheng expressionlessly pushed open the door in front of him and strode into Leeds United’s dressing room.
The players in the dressing room immediately raised their heads and looked at the door. Everyone’s eyes lit up. Ribery even cried out in surprise, while the others followed suit.
Handsome!
Today’s Zhong Cheng was truly too handsome!
Zhong Cheng was dressed in a snow-white Armani suit. His 188cm tall and sturdy body propped up the suit. He looked incomparably handsome and full of manliness.
The slender long legs allowed Zhong Cheng’s perfect figure to be sublimated. This was the Prince Charming who walked out of the comic book, causing Ribery and the others to scream in shock.
Ribery used his Boulogne country slang to exclaim, “Oh my God, the boss is so handsome. If I were a woman, I would definitely fall in love with him!”
Chimbonda echoed excitedly, “Oh oh oh, so handsome, so handsome!”
The narcissistic Huntelaar stroked his forehead with one hand and said sour, “Boss, do your parents know you’re so handsome? How am I supposed to live?”
The funniest thing was Charcoal Head Sagna exclaiming, “Oh my God, the boss is actually more handsome than me, I don’t believe it!”
Even Modric had a pitiful expression on his face as he bowed towards Zhong Cheng with both hands, “Please, boss, leave us a meal!”
Looking at this group of strange fellows in front of him, Zhong Cheng laughed and scolded, “Be serious and see what you guys are like now. Do you still need to tell me how handsome I am?”
The Leeds players all gestured at Zhong Cheng with disdain.
Zhong Cheng continued, “Frank, what are you talking about? Can you come out and talk again next time you learn music? Don’t copy your Bologna slang. We can’t understand it!”
Hearing the translator’s words, Ribery’s scarred face instantly turned red and he lowered his head bashfully.
“And Pascal, I know how handsome I am. You don’t have to tell me. I’m not afraid to tell you. I wake up every day by being handsome!” Zhong Cheng said.
Hahaha, the dressing room was filled with laughter.
Zhong Cheng said with a serious expression, “Klaas, Leeds United has my handsomeness. You should play well for me. To be honest, you don’t know anything except how to play football!”
Huntelaar suddenly rolled his eyes, and everyone burst into laughter.
Zhong Cheng directly arrived in front of Sania. However, Zhong Cheng’s gaze crossed Sania’s head. Suddenly, Zhong Cheng extended his right hand and shouted loudly into the distance, “The black in front of you is not black. What white do you mean by white … Bacari, quickly let me see where you are? Hey … Why are you so black in front of me?”
Boom!
Hahaha, the Leeds players burst into laughter. Even Sagna herself couldn’t hold back her laughter. However, his laughter carried a hint of dissatisfaction. He muttered to himself, “What’s wrong with Black? Aren’t blacks handsome? Brother is the most handsome of the blacks!”
Looking at the laughing players, Zhong Cheng’s expression suddenly became serious. “Alright, the joke has been played. You should relax. Now, it’s time for us to get down to business!”
The Leeds United players instantly restrained their smiles and sat down solemnly.
–Division Line–
The atmosphere in the Leeds United dressing room was very serious. The Leeds United players were sitting in a critical position.
All the Leeds United players were focused on their manager, Zhong Cheng, “You have to know that George Burley is a very aggressive football coach. He did that when he was at Ipswich and he succeeded. He brought Ipswich to the Premier League and got fifth place in the Premier League,” Zhong Cheng said solemnly. This means that he will not abandon the tactics that made him successful. In Derbyshire he is still using this crazy offensive football!
The Leeds players nodded in agreement.
Only then did Zhong Cheng continue, “Their offense is not like the traditional English football. It is not a direct long pass. Although they have a big center on the line, they are more likely to take two wings. Winged crosses and center strikes are their main offensive methods!”
Zhong Cheng immediately wrote down a person’s name on the tactical board-Grigoz Lasiak!
The Leeds United players instantly stared at the name.
Zhong Cheng said: “Born in Poland in 1979, 190cm tall center, weighing 84kg, Polish international. In the previous three seasons, he scored double digits in the Polish League. He moved to Derbyshire today and George Burley relied heavily on him. He started this game.”
The centre-backs of Leeds United suddenly became serious. According to the head coach, this fellow was definitely not easy to deal with.
Zhong Cheng said, “This is a high center that has been laid down. It is powerful and has a strong impact. Gerrard and Jean, you all have to pay attention to him. Keep an eye on him. Don’t give him a chance, let alone give him a chance to play!”
Zhong Cheng knew that this fellow was not only a striker who could score goals, but also create opportunities for his teammates. According to Zhong Cheng’s memories, this fellow had joined Tottenham Hotspur in the Premier League. Although he did well in the Premier League, this fellow was a big killer in the Champions League. Whether it was in Derbyshire or later in Southampton, he could be considered a scoring machine.
Peak and Boumsong nodded firmly and said, “Don’t worry, boss! We won’t give him any chance!”
Zhong Cheng nodded his head in satisfaction, and then wrote another name on the tactical board-Tom Hedelstone!
After understanding the first name, the Leeds players were very cautious and serious when they saw the name, and their faces were a little serious.
“Hurdlestone is only 18 years old, but he played for the Derbyshire first team when he was 16. He is a talented player who has a good reputation in England and is known as the star of the future,” Zhong said.
Zhong Cheng is very clear about this guy, Hedelstone is the future England edge international, is England U21 main force, the future Tottenham Hotspur team captain. And he remembered that in a year’s time, Hurdlestone would be paying £ 2. 5m for Tottenham Hotspur, which was already a high price for a 19-year-old.
Zhong Cheng said, “This is a tall midfielder. He is 190cm tall, but his body is still very agile and his defense area is very large. However, his talent is still in offense. This is a person that cannot be underestimated. Las, you have to pay attention to defending him.”
“Don’t worry, boss,” said Las Diarra sternly, “I promise to complete the mission!”
Zhong Cheng turned around to look at Modric and said, “Luca, your defensive duties have to be heavier in this match. You have to interfere with him frequently and make him not to play comfortably. Do you understand?”
Luca Modric nodded solemnly with a childish face.
Zhong Cheng immediately said, “Everyone, remember what I said at the beginning. Pay attention to each other’s two wings. Their attacks mainly come from two wings. Do you understand?”
Gary Kelly, Zimbonda, Ribery, Milner, and the others nodded with exceptional seriousness.
Zhong Cheng nodded his head in satisfaction and said, “Our tactics are usually trained. We need to give our opponents enough pressure, strengthen our defense, attack as fast as possible, and take risks. If we can’t do it once, then we’ll do it a second time. If we can’t do it a second time, then I’ll do it a third time … Remember, we only need to seize this opportunity, okay?”
The Leeds United players were serious as they roared in unison, “I know!”
Zhong Cheng said: “This is our first league game of the season, I hope you can give us a good start. Because this is the beginning of a legend, you are going to start a new era, you do not want to have a failed start to the legendary journey, right?”
The Leeds United players were very excited as they shouted, “No! We will definitely win, win, win!”
Zhong Cheng was extremely proud and waved his hand, “Alright then, let’s go and take victory away!”
The Leeds players all stood up and rushed towards the dressing room door like a surging tide.
Zhong Cheng stood at the door of the dressing room and clapped his hands with the Leeds players, giving them final encouragement.
