The Legendary Chairman Novel - Chapter 242

242 Leeds United’s Strong Opponent for the New Season!

After reading the news report, Zhong Cheng was stunned!

I never thought that the person who had chatted and laughed with him was actually a terrorist.

Zhong Cheng was truly shocked. He had never expected that he would actually walk around in front of the Gate of Death. Fortunately, he had led Leeds United to the next level. Otherwise, Shazad Tanville, a lunatic, would have frantically taken revenge on him.

Perhaps he would also become the target of this terrorist’s attack!

Zhong Cheng was truly speechless. He had actually strolled around the Abyss Devil and was almost hacked by someone. If that was the case, Zhong Cheng would become the saddest transmigrator in history.

The next day, when Zhong Cheng saw Pan An’s family, both sides sighed endlessly!

They were really confused in the past, but they didn’t notice that there were so many ferocious beasts lying ambush beside them.

However, they were extremely fortunate now. It was good that nothing happened to them.

Pan An was staying at Leeds now. He wanted to take care of his family’s affairs before leaving. He wanted his family to slowly adapt to the new family’s life, help Pan Hai and the other children deal with school matters, and so on.

Zhong Cheng accompanied Pan An for another day before continuing to prepare for the new season.

At this time, the fitness reserves of the Leeds players were very successful. Zhong Cheng once again witnessed Ortega’s amazing performance. Zhong Cheng really wanted Ortega to stay by his side and help him.

However, Zhong Cheng was very clear about the relationship between Ortega and Simone.

Simone seems to have retired this year and become the head coach of a team. Ortega should be leaving to help Simone.

To tell the truth, Zhong Cheng really didn’t want Ortega to leave, but there was nothing he could do!

Zhong Cheng had agreed to Ortega’s request when he first invited Ortega to Leeds United. If Simoni becomes head coach and invites him, Zhong Cheng will have to agree to Ortega’s departure.

Now that this day seemed to be coming soon, Zhong Cheng really wanted to make preparations for the future.

Yeah, what if Leeds United don’t have Ortega next season?

Zhong Cheng didn’t know how much Dimatteo had learned from following Ortega and being Ortega’s assistant for so long. Will DiMatteo be able to stand on his own then? Zhong Cheng didn’t know!

At this moment, Zhong Cheng did not think about these bad things. After all, there was still one season left.

Now Zhong Cheng is thinking about the new season. The first game of the new season is the home game of Leeds United. They will face Blackburn at Ellen Road Stadium.

Speaking of the home game, the Leeds United voting has come out. Perhaps it was because Leeds United fans were afraid that Zhong Cheng would use Leeds United as a toy and move him away, so most of them voted for the “Renovation of Ellen Road”. The approval rating for this vote was 81%, which was really too high.

Therefore, Zhong Cheng is now preparing to buy back the Ellen Road Stadium.

The reason for that was because when he sold the Ellen Road Stadium, he had set a buyback clause. Zhong Cheng could still take the Ellen Road Stadium back, but Zhong Cheng had to spend a lot of money.

Right now, Zhong Cheng is dealing with the matter of buying back the Ellen Road Stadium.

–Division Line–

At this time, the footsteps of the English Football Premier League were very close.

The English Community Shield has arrived this season, with Chelsea and Arsenal playing in England’s Wembley Stadium.

Chelsea were last season’s Premier League and FA Cup double winners. So this year’s Community Shield is between the FA Cup Championship and the league double, Chelsea, and Arsenal, who are second in the league.

England’s Community Shield can be considered a hot game for the Premier League, as the new season officially kicks off at the end of the next week.

After a few months of silence, the English fans were almost suffocated. Now that the FA Cup had arrived, they were very happy and excited. They all rushed to the new Wembley Stadium to watch the match.

This was a duo meeting, a strong duel!

Moreover, this was the first game before the start of the new season, so there was naturally a high degree of attention.

Of course, Zhong Cheng naturally did not appear at the new Wembley Stadium. He was now sitting in his own home, watching TV.

On Zhong Cheng’s side, Julia Oliveira was dressed in business attire.

Zhong Cheng gestured for Julia Olivera to sit down. However, Julia Oliveira shook her head and walked behind Zhong Cheng, stretching out a pair of jade hands to pinch Zhong Cheng’s shoulders and massage him!

This was really a day for local tycoons!

At this moment, the players from both sides appeared. The Chelsea and Arsenal players were on the pitch and the game was about to begin.

Zhong Cheng was watching this match very seriously. This was a direct competitor of Leeds United this season, so he naturally had to take a good look.

Mourinho’s formation is four three three, his tactical thinking and loyal tactical thinking is very similar, is the defensive counterattack. However, Chelsea’s defensive counterattack is not the same as Leeds United’s, although both sides are very oppressive.

As for Arsenal, they attacked ferociously and swiftly, and they walked in the shadow of Dutch football, attacking and defending completely, very ferociously and swiftly. And Arsenal have a lot of attacking talent, such as Henry, Bergkamp, Ljungberg and Pires.

However, this season, Arsenal’s powerful defender Vieira fell out with Arsène Wenge and left Arsenal for Juventus.

Vieira was very important to Arsenal, but it was because of the collapse in salary that Vieira chose to leave Arsenal.

The replacement for Vieira was Brazilian defender Gilberto Silva.

At the beginning of the game, last season’s league runner-up Arsenal took the absolute initiative to attack Chelsea. Arsenal went all out.

It can be seen that Arsène Wenge hates Chelsea very much.

Now Chelsea are poaching Arsenal players like Thierry Henry, Ashley Cole and Cesc Fabregas, especially Ashley Cole.

Ashley Cole is tempted and wants to leave Arsenal now. Because the Chelsea man is giving too much money for Ashley Cole to refuse.

But Arsène Wenge won’t let Ashley Cole go. However, Ashley Cole was determined to leave, and the relationship between the two sides was very bad.

At this moment, Arsenal fans also hated Ashley Cole. In order to express their dissatisfaction and hatred for Ashley Cole, they even threw Ashley Cole on the pound, mocking him for being a money lover and a slave to money!

Arsenal fans are madly mocking Ashley Cole, but this can’t save Ashley Cole’s heart. It will only worsen the relationship between the two sides and reinforce Ashley Cole’s intention to leave.

Although the relationship with Ashley Cole has fallen to a freezing point, Arsène Wenge still allowed Ashley Cole to start the game. Pascal Zimbonda, who arrived from Leeds United earlier this season, was on the bench.

Fifteen minutes into the game, Arsenal are in the lead, and Henry and Bergkamp’s attacking combination has created a lot of trouble for Terry and Carvalho’s defensive combination.

Zhong Cheng had been watching seriously. Henry was really too powerful. He was at his peak now. He was indeed worthy of being King Highbury!

In the 29th minute of the first half of the game, Henry played the King’s game.

After Henry received a pass from Fabregas in midfield, he turned around and passed Chelsea midfielder Tiago. He then quickly moved the football forward and shot forward like a supersonic ship.

Lampard’s defenses were blown away by the two accelerations and a super-fast car rushed towards Chelsea’s half-court.

Facing Chelsea centre-backs John Terry and Carvalho, Henry suddenly waded out of the soccer ball and rushed between the two men, heading straight for Chelsea’s goal.

This performance made Zhong Cheng stand up, awesome!

Faced with Petr Cech, Henry scooped the ball into the far corner.

Arsenal are ahead 1-0. Of course, this attack was entirely Henry’s personal ability. The King of Highbury was indeed not in vain.

Zhong Cheng sucked in a breath of cold air. This kind of combination of Henry, Peak, and Vermaelen was simply impossible to stop.

Arsenal are really strong. Strangely strong.

However, Chelsea are not weak either. They were both Premier League and FA Cup winners last season. Of course, a lot of people are not convinced by Chelsea’s title because the Chelsea people are just playing 1-0 and they are playing very shrunk. But Chelsea are the champions, so what?

This season, the Chelsea man is prepared to invest a lot of money to make a difference in the Champions League and win the Champions League.

However, this season was no longer as easy to sell as it was a year or two ago, not even if they were rich.

Isn’t that so? Mourinho’s eyes are on the Rossoneri striker Ukrainian nuclear warhead, Liverpool midfielder Steven Gerrard, Barcelona’s Brazilian heavenly king Ronaldinho and others. The Chelsea men have all made astronomical offers, but they still haven’t won the players.

Moreover, even Liz United’s Ribery and the others were not able to buy it from their Chelsea team. Therefore, it will be even more difficult to buy people this season.

At this moment, the Chelsea man made a sudden move. Gilberto made a mistake in the middle and the football was cut off by Lampard.

Lampard quickly moved the ball to Duff’s feet. Duff was very fast, like lightning, accelerating past Ashley Cole.

The Arsenal fans at the scene were furious, attacking Ashley Cole crazily, claiming that Ashley Cole was an undercover agent and letting Duff pass so easily was simply a trap and a game of fake football.

Duff crossed Ashley Cole and crossed. Didier Drogba, who was in the middle, crushed Kolo Toure and smashed the ball into Arsenal’s goal.

Toure suffered a huge loss in height as Drogba easily headed home.

At this time, Drogba’s magical beast aura gradually revealed itself. Zhong Cheng also frowned slightly in front of the TV. It seemed that Chelsea were also very difficult to deal with.

Not long after the second half began, Ashley Cole was once again a slip of the tongue, given by Duff. The Chelsea man has broken through Arsenal’s goal in almost the same way and Didier Drogba scored twice to take the lead.

After conceding the ball, Arsène Wenge could no longer stand it and directly replaced Ashley Cole. When Ashley Cole came off the pitch, he was attacked and cursed by the Arsenal fans. Ashley Cole didn’t even clap his hands at Chimbonda and directly came off the pitch.

In the end, Chelsea beat Arsenal 2-1 to win the English Community Shield this season.
