The Legendary Chairman Novel - Chapter 081

081 McCarthy, a Powerful Guy!
24 September 2004, Ellen Road Stadium, England.

Today, it was still a sea of people. Countless fans rushed into the stadium and came to the grandstand to watch the tournament.

Most of the Leeds United fans were still wearing blue away jerseys today. They continued to demonstrate against Zhong Cheng, exerting pressure on Zhong Cheng, urging the center to scram out of Leeds United. Leeds United were not allowed to be crazy.

Surprisingly, some Leeds United fans wore their home white shirts today. They were gathered together, waving the club’s flag and cheering loudly for Leeds United.

There weren’t many fans, and there were only a few hundred of them!

However, this was already quite good. This had never happened before!

The live cameras were aimed at the small group of fans. They were all gathered at the front of the stands and shouted, “Come on, Leeds United! Leeds United will win! Leeds United will win!”

“Wow, this has never happened before. It seems that as Leeds United get better and better, more Leeds fans will join them to cheer for Leeds United. Madman Loria is now conquering Ellen Road and Leeds United fans step by step. What do you think, Eddie?” Mark Lawrenson looked at Eddie Gray with a smile.

As a celebrity Leeds United player, Eddie Gray’s heart was complicated right now. On the other hand, Leeds United had indeed performed very well, and it was something to be happy about. However, the head coach of Leeds United was actually Madman Loria, and he had a lump in his heart. He used to be the most resolute opponent of Madman Loria, but now he could not cheer for Zhong Cheng.

Eddie Gray is in the mood to represent a large group of Leeds United fans, many of whom are like him.

Eddie Gray said: “The team is in such chaos and Madman Loria is not in control of the team. This is a riot. Leeds United still have to be destroyed by him. He is the culprit of Leeds United!”

–Division Line–

In the Leeds Union locker room.

Zhong Cheng’s face was gloomy, and he raised his eyebrows to let everyone know the fury in Zhong Cheng’s heart.

Looking at the eighteen players in front of him, Zhong Cheng was extremely angry. He really didn’t expect that someone would stab him in the back.

Of course, Elavi and Carlisle weren’t on the 18-man list today. If there were these two, Zhong Cheng’s explosive barrel would have exploded long ago.

The Leeds United players also had gloomy faces, and their mood was similarly bad.

They were extremely angry at the people who had destroyed the unity of the team. They had finally achieved their current results and had a chance to break through to the Premier League. Now, there was actually someone who had destroyed the team. Moreover, they were also people from the club. They naturally hated it endlessly.

These damn guys are trying to ruin the future of all their Leeds United players. This is going against their entire Leeds team.

At this moment, the Leeds players hated Carlisle and Ellawi.

Zhong Cheng suddenly took a step forward and said, “You are the best 18 people I have chosen. You will represent Leeds United in today’s league match. However, some people say that you are not worthy of being included in this 18-man list. What do you think?”

“Bullshit! Bullshit! This is jealousy, this is outright jealousy!”

“Some fellows don’t have the ability to fart. They think of evil ways every day. They are simply extremely shameless, especially shameless!”

“Red-eyed is a disease. I know!”

“The mole will be executed by everyone! We must not let them off lightly! These two bastards!”

The Leeds players were furious, roaring and venting their anger.

“Alright! Is your shouting useful?” Albertini immediately shouted, “They say they don’t deserve it? Let’s slap them in the face with our strength and tell them the truth. Let them know that they will always be a loser and that we are a deserving Leeds United starter!”

The Leeds players quieted down and looked at Albertini.

“Yes, Demi is right! Speak the truth, slap the face with victory!” Zhong Cheng immediately said.

“Right now, there are countless people waiting to see us laugh. Our Leeds United is in an internal conflict. Our Leeds United will definitely collapse and our Leeds United will be doomed. They are all waiting to mock us. Are you willing to let them get what they want?” Zhong Cheng shouted.

“Bullshit! We Leeds United will win! We Leeds United will definitely upgrade!” Franck Ribery instantly stood up and roared loudly.

“That’s right! Leeds United will definitely level up. If you want to see our jokes, dream on! Leeds United will win, Leeds will level up!” The Leeds players shouted.

“You have such thoughts, I am relieved! I hope that you will throw away all your messy thoughts and devote yourself wholeheartedly to this match. “We have to use our strength to tell everyone that one or two rat poop can’t spoil our soup. Those two damned fellows are bullshit. Without them, our Leeds Alliance would be even more powerful and ferocious!” Zhong Cheng shouted loudly.

The Leeds players stood up and waved their fists.

“You know the tactics, you know the points you should pay attention to. Then, go out and slap everyone in the face. Tell everyone with victory that we can’t cross Leeds United!” Zhong Cheng waved his hand and shouted.

Leeds United players rushed out of the stadium and into Ellen Road.

–Division Line–

The game had already begun, and Leeds United were not surprised, putting on a defensive counterattack.

Even Leeds United centre-forward Huntelaar was involved in the defence.

The Leeds United players were very stable, their defence was very solid and their execution was very high, giving Sunderland a very strong pressure. They didn’t seem to be affected by the rumors before the match and didn’t seem to have any internal strife at all.

From the first few minutes of the game, Leeds United’s performance was almost exactly the same as the previous game. The only difference was that the Leeds United players’ defensive pressure became stronger and stronger.

“Hiss! Looks like Leeds United aren’t affected by the pre-match rumors!”

“Leeds United’s defense is very, very demanding for integrity. If there was a slight bump between the players, this tactic would not have been so perfect. From the looks of it, Leeds United’s defensive line is very stable. It can’t be seen that they have a lot of contradictory shields inside!”

“Looks like Madman Roja is very good at coaching the team!” Mark Lawrence said.

“What kind of trick is there? If it was, there wouldn’t be any internal strife!” Eddie Gray immediately said, “Humph! This is just a calm look on the surface. Wait until Leeds United concede the ball and the chaos within Leeds United will be exposed. Just wait and see!”

“Perhaps it’s like this!” Mark Lawrence said.

–Division Line–

“Hmph, it’s still the same. What else can you do other than defend yourself? With this tactic, you’ve been thoroughly studied. Now, you’re even borrowing the wind of’internal strife ‘. Let’s see how long you can last.” Bradley Wilson snorted coldly.

“Madman Roja’s tactics are really embarrassing. He is wearing a tortoise shell and can be attacked. This is simply boring. He has the same virtue as Bastard Wang!”

“Although Leeds United seem to be doing well, they are only one goal away. Once they concede, Leeds United will instantly collapse and Leeds United will be finished this season!”

In the press gallery, these reporters were all expressing their opinions.

In their view, Leeds United were certain to lose this match, and the collapse of Leeds United would come sooner or later. Although Leeds United was very calm now, there was already a surge inside.

These media reporters were all waiting for a collapse!

–Division Line–

Mick McCarthy sat steadily on the coaching bench, very calm.

He had studied the tactics of Leeds United in detail. Leeds United’s tactics were to use rough defense to wear off your patience, making you more and more impatient, becoming more and more impatient, then losing patience, seizing your mistakes once or twice, launching a quick counterattack to win.

So, before the game, Mick McCarthy had stressed many times that players had to be patient and patient. Moreover, when attacking, the defensive line must be maintained by three people. Stand in place, you absolutely must not reveal any loopholes easily.

From the start of the game until now, Sunderland’s defensive line has remained intact and stable. Actually, Leeds United could fight back a few times, but looking at Sunderland’s defensive line, they gave up on fighting back.

Mick McCarthy was pleased with the situation.

Sunderland are now a technical team, and when attacking, they are not like traditional English teams, directly playing high and high. Mick McCarthy changed the team, taking the technical route. When attacking, they used the team’s cooperation to create opportunities and scores.

Sunderland are patient in their offense, so they don’t give Leeds much of a chance to fight back.

Although it looks like Sunderland are not threatening Leeds United’s goal, it is still very dangerous. Because Sunderland are also tempering Leeds United’s patience, a patience-to-patience coach.

–Division Line–

Zhong Cheng, who was dressed in a white suit, stood by the side of the arena with his hands crossed over his chest and his brows knitted tightly.

Zhong Cheng kept twisting the ring on his index finger, circles after circles. His eyes were fixed on the field, sharp.

He knew he was in trouble.

Sunderland are really too patient. This backhand is even more patient than Barcelona in later generations. They never risk passing the football forward. They just control the football under their feet and pass it foot by foot, which drains the patience of the Leeds United players.

You know, most of the players in Leeds are young and full of brats. If it was to be more patient, they really couldn’t compare to this group of experienced veterans.

Zhong Cheng sucked in a breath of cold air. Mick McCarthy was indeed very powerful. He had actually calculated human nature in it. This was a very good coach.

Moreover, no matter how Sunderland attacked, his defense remained at least three men, forming a complete line of defense that did not give Leeds a chance to counterattack.

Now that 18 minutes had passed, Leeds United had very few counter-attacks. Zhong Cheng knew that if he continued to play like this, the patience of the young players of Leeds United would be exhausted. At that time, Leeds United would be in danger.
