The Legendary Chairman Novel - Chapter 070
070 Or Give Them a Chance
Leeds United have won five consecutive league victories in the new season after four consecutive league victories and a Carling Cup win. This result exceeded many people’s expectations. Leeds United was simply too powerful.
At the beginning of the season, Leeds United were a disappointing team and were hailed as the favourite to be relegated to the Champions League. Countless media reporters and fans patted their chests and promised that Madman Loria’s team would fall into the relegation zone from the start.
There is a reason why people see it this way. The Leeds fans were very happy and excited when the madman Roja became president because their savior had arrived and the Leeds fans thought that Leeds would become their fans’ team.
But who would have thought that Madman Loria would suddenly bring in a large group of seventeen or eighteen-year-olds and squeeze out Kevin Blackwell, the team’s head coach, to become the head coach of Leeds United?
A guy who didn’t have any football player experience, let alone a coach, actually wanted to coach a team. What was it if he wasn’t courting death? Madman Luo Asia Pacific went crazy. Even the fans of Leeds United who were enthusiastic about the madman Roja instantly defected and criticized the madman Roja.
Looking at the young players Madman Loria had brought in, a group of players he had never heard of before, it would be strange for such a team to be able to play in the Champions League. This team, whose average age is around twenty-one, is not close, who is Tamar’s demotion?
Bradley Wilson and the others attacked the madman Roja crazily and mocked the madman Roja mockingly. They felt that they were very reasonable.
However, the ruthless reality was that the faces of Bradley Wilson and the others were swollen.
Now Bradley Wilson was hiding in a dark corner licking and licking his wounds while waiting for a fatal counterattack.
Bradley Wilson doesn’t believe you, Leeds United, can keep winning?
Right now, countless pairs of eyes are watching Leeds United. They want to see where Madman Loria’s team can go? Is Leeds United the right team to lose? Can Leeds keep winning?
–Division Line–
Zhong Cheng led the Leeds United players to Sheffield, where they will face Sheffield United. This is a team that is not very strong, especially their offensive ability is not strong.
Sheffield United coach Neil Warnock has brought in more than 30 strikers over the past five years and has been searching for a striker with consistent scoring efficiency to advance to the Premier League, but has yet to find one.
Neil Warnock, who took over from Sheffield United in 1999, has been coaching the club for five ideas. He once led the team into the Premier League playoffs, but failed in the end.
Neil Warnock is confident this season but has yet to bring in a striker he is satisfied with and is skeptical of his team’s attacking prowess.
Therefore, facing such a team, Zhong Cheng believed that Leeds United would have no problem defeating them.
Many people were excited at the thought of winning five consecutive Premier League matches.
However, the actual situation was not as beautiful as everyone had imagined. Instead, it was extremely cruel.
Because, at Sheffield United’s home stadium at Bramo Lane, Leeds United lost, and lost 2-0 to Sheffield United.
Sheffield United veteran Ashley Ward scored two goals in the game.
Ashley Ward is from Manchester City Academy and is now 33 years old. He is going to turn 34 in two months. Before joining Sheffield United in 2003, Ashley Ward scored only two goals in more than a year, and today he has completed more than a year of work.
Originally, Ashley Ward was a substitute, but before the game, Sheffield United’s striker was accidentally injured. Ashley Ward was only able to replace him in the starting line-up. This starting line-up was amazing, scoring twice and killing off the extremely strong Leeds United.
This match seemed to have caused some physical problems for the Leeds players. Their defense was not as fierce and tenacious as the previous matches. The pressure on Sheffield United was insufficient, and the intensity of their defense had also decreased significantly. This was the reason why they lost the game.
Zhong Cheng had a gloomy face on the sidelines, and his heart was extremely angry.
It’s not that Leeds United can’t lose, it’s that today’s Leeds United players did not live up to his expectations and he was not satisfied.
The league’s four consecutive victories came to an abrupt halt, and five consecutive victories did not appear.
After the match, the Leeds United fans naturally attacked Zhong Cheng crazily and humiliated him fiercely, as if Zhong Cheng’s previous five consecutive victories had instantly been in vain.
–Division Line–
In the sixth round of the Premier League, Leeds United returned to their home stadium at Ellen Road to face Watford, who was ranked eighth in the Premier League.
Although Leeds United lost in the fifth round, they are still the champions of the Champions League and they are still the leaders of the league.
However, Wigan Athletics and Stoke City behind Leeds United caught up. They scored 11 points together, just one point less than Leeds United. The situation was extremely dangerous, and Leeds United’s top spot in the Premier League would be lost.
Watford was three wins and two losses in the first five rounds without a draw. In the last two rounds, Watford had won two consecutive matches and his morale was high. As for Leeds United’s new defeat, the momentum between the two teams was different, so Leeds United was a bit hanging in the balance.
In this round of matches, Zhong Cheng had some rotation with Las Diarra and Albertini starting together to strengthen the defense.
Leeds United played a tough game this time … but they still lost the game. Leeds United lost to Watford at home, giving their opponent a three-game winning streak, and he also suffered two consecutive losses.
In this match, Leeds United also lost in luck.
Watford scored a lucky goal. Young Pique cleared the area with his big foot. The football smashed into the back of Gary Kelly’s head in front of him. The football bounced back and bounced into the Leeds United area. Gary Kelly fell to the ground and fainted.
In this match, Leeds United really lost.
Only after the match did Zhong Cheng know that his family, Kelly, had to rest for three weeks to recuperate. However, Zhong Cheng almost didn’t curse!
Zhong Cheng was very unhappy, while the reporters were very happy.
Madman Loria, finally lost!
Luckily, Bradley Wilson immediately jumped out, mocking and belittling Zhong Cheng crazily, giving him an extremely ferocious blow.
“If you just watch one game, you might think nothing. But now that Leeds have lost two consecutive games, that’s more than enough. Madman Loria’s tactics have been mastered by the rest of the Champions League and Madman Loria’s Leeds are going downhill and going to hell step by step.”
“We can clearly see that both Sheffield United and Watford are very careful to defend against Leeds United and not give them a chance to counterattack. Leeds United are a toothless tiger, a sick cat, no threat!”
“In these two matches, Ribery and Huntelaar, who did well in front of everyone, were both dumbfounded. “Amateur players are amateurs, and sometimes they may be amazing, but most of the time, they are mediocre. Like Ribery in these two games, the Frenchman is nothing but a little surprised by the scar on his face, and his performance is shit!”
“The same goes for the Dutchman Huntelaar, who scored in succession. In these two games, he lost his way completely. Or perhaps he returned to his normal state. This is the real state of the two of them. Do you really think that lunatic Roja has abnormal vision? What a joke!”
“As I said, Leeds United have been doomed ever since the madman Roja took over! A madman can lead a team? What a joke, it’s a big joke!”
“Now all the teams know how to deal with Leeds United. It is foreseeable that Leeds United will face more and more failures in the future! Leeds United are finished, Madman Loria is exposed and finished!”
Bradley Wilson’s words were acknowledged by Gerald Krasna and the others. They all agreed that Leeds United was finished.
They all thought that Leeds United had won the last few games because they were not familiar with them. Now that everyone knew what Leeds United was up to, who would lose to Leeds United?
Bradley Wilson was analyzing the strengths and weaknesses of Leeds United’s tactics, and Bradley Wilson was focusing on the weaknesses of Leeds United’s tactics as if he was helping other teams in the Champions League find ways to deal with Leeds United.
And Bradley Wilson took out several English diamond coaches he had interviewed. These coaches were all Premier League coaches. Their words were extremely disdainful of Leeds United’s tactics. There was even a fellow who claimed that Madman Loria’s tactics were simply strangling football. It was too dirty!
The Premier League coaches analyzed the reason why Zhong Cheng had won before and the reason why he had lost one game after another.
Bradley Wilson is doing this to remind the rest of the Champions League how to defend against Leeds United’s counter-attack. If he breaks through Leeds United’s defenses, he is going to watch Leeds United fall and go to hell.
–Division Line–
The team lost two consecutive games and the mood in Leeds United was depressed. The Leeds players had their first cold winter since the start of the new season.
After the game, Zhong Cheng instructed the Leeds players, “Losing is nothing? There’s no team that hasn’t lost yet. There are no invincible generals in this world, unless you choose to retire after winning two games.”
“The league has been a long season and it ‘s normal for teams to have ups and downs. We may have had some problems in these two games, but does that mean we’ re done for this season at leeds?
“Obviously not! I still have great confidence in you guys, but the premise is that you have to do as I say 100% in the competition. You have to put 100% of your energy into the competition before we can walk out of the valley and face victory again!”
“Losing two matches is nothing. The most important thing for you now is to forget about your previous wins and losses. Start from scratch and concentrate on the next league so that Leeds United can return to normal!” Zhong Cheng said.
