The Legendary Chairman Novel - Chapter 270

270 UEFA Cup to Attack

Albertini’s injury did have a big impact on Leeds United, and the Leeds United players were in a low mood. At this time, the Leeds United international players had returned to the team.

Leeds United played Aston Villa at home at Ellen Road this weekend, but Zhong Cheng was still out of action. He still had one final suspension.

Next week, Leeds United will have a double, with the UEFA Cup due to begin.

Leeds United’s opponent is Dinamo Bucharest of Romania, a two-legged knockout game that will not be played until after the knockout.

The first leg was still away, which meant that Zhong Cheng would take the Leeds United players to Bucharest, Romania, after the end of this week’s league.

Leeds United will be away next weekend to face Fulham in the fifth Premier League game.

Next up, Leeds United’s game is tighter.

Leeds United will play in the Premier League this weekend under Rogers. At this time, the Leeds United players were still a little tired, especially those who had gone to the national team.

The Premier League has reignited the flames of war and the English fans are naturally paying close attention to it.

The Leeds United fans were naturally paying attention to the Leeds United game. Leeds United had already lost two consecutive games in the league. They did not want to lose anymore and came to the scene to cheer for Leeds United.

Before the game, the media reporters were still not optimistic about Leeds United, believing that the Leeds United team would continue to lose, especially Gary Arnold Hisith, who believed that Leeds United’s successive losses had already begun and would continue unchecked.

Gary Arnold Hisith has reason to believe Leeds United’s case has faltered, Huntelaar is out of form, Modric and Albertini have been injured in succession, and the departure of Las Diarra, Zimbonda and Boumsong has shattered the Leeds United squad that crushed the Champions League last season.

The Leeds United system set up by Madman Loria had also collapsed. Leeds United was a very chaotic team now, so Leeds United was not strange.

And Gary Arnold Hisith claims Madman Loria has lost control of Leeds United, which is doomed.

Gary Arnold Hisith’s words naturally attracted a lot of attention, Many people thought that Gary Arnold Hisith was right. Unknowingly, the framework of Leeds United had completely collapsed. Now, this Leeds United team was simply rebuilding a new team. The Leeds United’s sad days were finally coming.

Gerald Krasna and Kevin Blackwell also stepped forward to support Gary Arnold Hisith’s words. One of the things they wanted to say was that Leeds United were finished!

The Leeds United fans were also very worried when they saw these words. Naturally, they could see that many of the Leeds United players had indeed left. Was Leeds United really finished?

However, at this time, Leeds United fans had great confidence in Zhong Cheng. They firmly believed that Leeds United would not do this and that they would succeed.

In this match, Leeds United faced Aston Villa at their home Arena. Zhong Cheng was sitting in the stands watching the match, and Gourcuff was sitting beside him.

Yes, Gourcuff did not appear on the roster for this match. Instead, he sat beside Zhong Cheng.

Today, Rogers’ starting lineup is a far cry from before, because Leeds United’s current lineup is truly incomplete.

Rogers is a 4-4-2 lineup that starts as follows:

Goalkeeper: Zhong Zheng

Fourth guard “from left to right”; Evra, Vermaelen, Pique and Sagna

Four midfielders “from left to right”: Ribery, Nigel Dejon, Alexander Song and Milner

Twin strikers: Crespo and Darren Bent

Yes, Rogers took Huntelaar off the starting line-up. Huntelaar hasn’t played well since the start of the season and has been getting worse lately. He even wasted two single-goal chances in the warm-up match against a League Two team. No wonder the current media reporters are frantically blackmailing Huntelaar.

Huntelaar’s situation was really bad now. In order to win, Rogers took Huntelaar off the starting line-up and replaced him with Crespo.

Obviously, Rogers had high expectations for Crespo.

At the beginning of the game, Leeds United still focused on defending and counterattacking, and Leeds United’s Fang said it was not bad. Because their defensive system did not change much, Pique and Vermaelen’s defenses were very good, stabilizing the team.

Aston Villa’s offense was impressive. Kevin Phillips did a great job. He was a very strong striker. He won the Premier League’s best striker in 1999-2000 and the European Golden Boot Award that year.

Of course Kevin Phillips and Quinn form a tall and fast forward team, but in England it’s all about power.

After arriving at Aston Villa this season, he was the main player and scored a beautiful goal in the first four minutes of the Premier League.

At this time, Kevin Phillips’ sudden interruption shocked Leeds United, and everyone was shocked. Luckily, Zhong Zheng’s performance was not bad, directly saving the football from the bottom line.

The game was really interesting because Aston Villa’s current head coach was David O ‘Reilly, the former head coach of the Leeds United Junior Guards. He was very famous at Leeds United. However, there are also many people who believe that the reason why Leeds United went bankrupt is also because of David O ‘Reilly’s frenzied reinforcements.

So, many people think David O ‘Reilly is both an angel and a devil.

This match between David O ‘Reilly and Leeds United naturally attracted a lot of attention. Unfortunately, Leeds United coach Madman Loria was suspended from the game today and was unable to face David O ‘Reilly, which made reporters feel extremely regretful.

After all, Rogers was only an assistant coach. What was going on between him and David O ‘Reilly?

At the beginning of the game, the two sides seemed to be evenly matched. Aston Villa’s attack was good, but Leeds United’s defense was steady. It could be seen that the two sides were on par.

However, Leeds United’s counter-attack today was not very sharp, because Ribery looked a little tired. He was not as sharp as before in the counter-attack. Even though he could pass the ball well, the threat level was still much lower.

Knowing that Leeds United’s counterattack was not as powerful as before, Aston Futures immediately launched a ferocious attack. Kevin Phillips really opened fire and ferociously surrounded Leeds United’s goal.

If it weren’t for Pique and Vermaelen’s encirclement, Leeds United would have been stuffed.

At the end of the first half, the score was 0-0, and Leeds United didn’t have many chances.

Crespo’s performance was good. He threatened Aston Villa’s goal in sporadic chances but shocked Aston Villa fans.

Seeing this, Rogers nodded. He could tell that Crespo was right today.

The second half of the match resumed shortly after the two sides’ half-time break.

Kevin Phillips missed the second half of the game in the box and pushed the ball into Leeds United’s empty goal with a kick.

“Super Kevin! Super Kevin! Super Kevin! Super Kevin!” Aston Villa fans were delighted as they shouted Kevin Phillips’s name.

Zhong Cheng shook his head in the stands. It seemed that it was very difficult for Leeds United to win the game today. The Leeds United players were really out of shape today, especially Ribery. This fellow had expended too much energy on the national team.

Now Leeds United are also affected by the FIFA virus.

The game was going on, but Leeds United’s fans seemed to be in a bad mood. Today, Leeds United did not have a chance to meet the ball at all.

Sure enough, Aston Villa scored another goal in the 26th minute of the second half. It was still Super Kevin, Kevin Phillips.

In the end, Leeds United lost 2-0 at home to Aston Villa, marking their third Premier League defeat of the season. Now the Leeds United team had truly entered a low ebb, the lowest ebb. From two consecutive league victories to three consecutive defeats, Leeds United are really on a roller coaster ride.

The Leeds United fans were in a terrible mood. What was going on with Leeds United? Will Leeds United be fine? Was Leeds United really going to be relegated?

At the end of the fifth Premier League match, the Premier League table had also undergone a great change. So far, only two teams have won five consecutive Premier League matches, with Manchester United, who were previously first in the league, being tied by their arch-rivals Manchester City.

Ranked first in the Premier League is the Blues’ Chelsea, who have scored 15 points and are rushing Charlton on goal. Charlton are now 15 points second in the Premier League.

Manchester United are third in the Premier League with 13 points. In fourth place was Manchester United’s arch-rival Manchester City, who scored 11 points. Bolton, Tottenham Hotspur and Liverpool are tied for eight points. They are fifth, sixth and seventh on the net, while Middlesbrough are eighth with seven points.

Leeds United, Arsenal and Athletics Wigan have six points and are now ranked ninth, tenth and eleventh in the Premier League.

Yes, now that Leeds United are ranked ninth in the league, their position is getting lower and lower. Obviously, they are heading towards the demotion zone.

The difference between Leeds United and top Chelsea is now nine points. This difference is still very big. This is the beginning of the league. If this continues, Leeds United will really be in danger.

After this round of matches, the outside media naturally continued to attack Leeds United and Zhong Cheng. They claim Leeds United are doomed and will be relegated this season.

Zhong Cheng ignored all of this. His mind was no longer in the Premier League, and his mind had already flown to Romania. Because Zhong Cheng’s first UEFA Cup tour is about to begin, Zhong Cheng’s heart is still full of anticipation.

At this time, the major media are predicting the performance of the UEFA Cup this round. A lot of media think that Leeds United can’t beat Dinamo Bucharest because they have a lot of internal problems.

Leeds United have lost three league matches. What are they going to do to compete with Dinamo Bucharest? The Dinamo Bucharest also believe they will win their home game against Zurich United.
