The Legendary Chairman Novel - Chapter 764
764 Leeds United Class 92
In the fourth round of the Carling Cup, Zhong Cheng was still a young player.
Zhong Cheng’s goal this season is very clear, that is the league and the Champions League two places. The Carling Cup and the FA Cup are both places where Leeds United train and there are not many requirements for results.
Zhong Cheng has given the Carling Cup and the FA Cup to the youngsters.
Zhong Cheng told them clearly that how well they played was related to how many matches they could play. The farther Leeds United go, the more chances they have to play. If they were eliminated too early, their chances of making an appearance would be greatly reduced.
Therefore, these opportunities are entirely in the hands of the young players, allowing them to grasp it themselves.
In this match, Zhong Cheng’s formation was 4-1-3-2. The list was as follows:
Goalkeeper: Simon Mignolet
Fourth Guards “Left to Right”: Gareth Bale, Matts Hummels, Jerome Boateng and Glen Johnson
Single waist: Stephen M’Bia
Three avant-garde “from left to right”: Eden Azar, Yaya Toure and Samir Nasri
Twin strikers: Robert Levandovsky and Alexander Pato
This was the starting line-up for the game, and there were also some young people sitting on the bench, such as Danny Ross and Kyle Walker from the youth team.
These two are talented young players who have been nurtured by Leeds United’s youth academy.
Born in Sheffield, Yorkshire, Kyle Walker joined his hometown team Sheffield United at a young age. However, he was not valued here and the club thought he should contact the track and field team, and even Kyle Walker had practiced track and field in the past.
Because he wasn’t valued at Sheffield United, Kyle Walker came to Leeds United with his good friend Danny Ross, studied at Leeds United Academy and joined the Leeds United Youth Team.
Zhong Cheng did not manage the youth team much and did not discover Kyle Walker at first.
It was not long ago that academy director David Seaman told Zhong Cheng that a team wanted to take Kyle Walker away. Only then did Zhong Cheng find out that the future England right-back Kyle Walker was in their Leeds United Formation. This was truly a pleasant surprise for Zhong Cheng.
After learning about Kyle Walker, Zhong Cheng went to the youth team to take a look. Sure enough, this Kyle Walker was the famous future Kyle Walker, so Zhong Cheng directly gave Kyle Walker a professional contract to stay at Leeds United.
At the same time, Zhong Cheng also gave Danny Ross a professional contract.
The pair are both 17 years old and can sign professional contracts, so Leeds United signed them. The two of them were naturally very happy. The current Leeds United were a very good team. Moreover, their good friends Eden Azar, De Braune, Lucaku, Borgba and Kurtuva were all here, so they naturally did not want to leave.
Looking at Leeds United’s youth roster, Zhong Cheng really felt like he was looking at Manchester United’s Class 92 back then!
When this group of players really matures and appears in the Leeds United starting lineup, the entire England and world will be shocked by the Leeds United Academy!
Moreover, every year, Leeds United attract a lot of talented young players to train at Leeds United, because Zhong Cheng’s determination to explore the vision of young people and nurture young players is very tempting for many young players.
Look, Leeds United’s first team is still following the path of the Young Guards. It is easier for young players to get ahead when they come to this club. Therefore, young geniuses from all over the world are willing to come to Leeds United for trial training, hoping to stay.
In this match, Leeds United’s opponent, Coventry, was not very strong.
Coventry are no longer the top teams in the Premier League. In recent years, Coventry has declined sharply from year to year. It is still struggling in the Champions League, but it is clear that there is no hope of levelling up, but to risk their lives to relegate the team.
Therefore, even though the Leeds United squad was filled with young people, their chances of winning were quite high.
However, at this time, the media reporters did not doubt that Leeds United would win. They don’t care about that at all. They care about Leeds United’s Robert Levandovsky. Is this guy going to score or not?
Before the game, the media reporters were still madly insulting Robert Levandowski, claiming that Robert Levandowski was a parallel importer, Zhong Cheng was mistaken.
Countless gazes were focused on Robert Levandovsky. Robert Levandovsky is very hard-working, trying to score goals, trying to prove himself. At the same time, it was for Zhong Cheng’s sake. He didn’t want to affect his boss’s reputation because of him.
Robert Levandovsky was not fighting for himself, but for Zhong Cheng.
In the 21st minute of the first half, Robert Levandowski had a great chance, but with a shovel from behind the box, he missed the ball and it flew out of the bottom line.
This was a shot that was close at hand, but he didn’t score!
The reporters on the scene were naturally very happy. This was Robert Levandovsky’s most realistic display of skill!
Zhong Cheng did not feel anything. Where was Robert Levandovsky’s strength? He had just been unlucky lately.
In the thirty-ninth minute of the first half, Leeds United finally broke the deadlock.
Leeds United midfielder Yaya Toure caught Robert Levandowski’s back from the front of the box and swung his leg to hit the goal, sending the ball flying into Coventry like a loaded cannon ball.
This shot was really too sharp.
Football was like a ray of white light. Its momentum was heavy and its speed was fast. Coventry’s goalkeeper had no choice, this was World Wave.
The Leeds United fans were excited as they jumped up and waved their fists.
The first half ended with Leeds United leading 1-0.
After the second half of the match, the Coventry team did not want to surrender and was still struggling to the death. Not to mention, they almost got it. Fortunately, Simon Mignolet played well, blocking high and throwing the football away.
In this match, Leeds United’s centre-back team was in a bit of a mess. These two future achievements were both very high, and they were both top-notch centre-backs in the future. But both are still young, and neither has played centre-back before.
Previously, Matz Hummels played more at the back and Jerome Boateng at right-back. Therefore, the two of them suddenly partnered to play at centre-back is a bit uncomfortable. However, these two people’s performance was getting better and better. Zhong Cheng believed that if they were given more time, they would grow up very quickly.
Media reporters, however, do not think so. They all think that Madman Loria is now completely mad. He really thought that he was invincible in exploring and nurturing young people. This fellow just happened to discover some young people. This fellow really thought that he was the number one Bole in the world!
Madman Loria had gone mad!
Zhong Cheng ignored these reporters. These reporters could not do anything but brag!
At this moment, Leeds United’s balls jumped excitedly!
Leeds United scored a corner in the frontcourt and Alexander Pato’s shot hit the opposing defenders and bounced off the baseline. Samir Nasri curved the ball out, and Mbia, who was behind the box, jumped high and headed in.
Leeds United widened the score by leading Coventry 2-0.
After scoring this goal, the young players of Leeds United relaxed a lot and performed better and better.
It was at this moment that Gareth Bale, who was on the wing, began his performance. He broke through continuously on the wing and shot angrily. The football was slightly higher than the bar, causing the Coventry to break out in cold sweat.
Three minutes later, it was Gareth Bale who broke through the winger line and passed the ball to the back of the box with an arc. Robert Levandowski jumped high and headed the ball towards Coventry’s goal. Unfortunately, football was saved by the goalkeepers in Coventry when they saw the goalkeeper set a bottom line.
Another three minutes later, Leeds United got a direct free-kick in the front court.
Samir Nasri and Gareth Bale were standing in front of the football when Gareth Bale suddenly pierced through Coventry’s goal with an exquisite arc, 3-0.
The sudden eruption of Gareth Bale during this period of time caused many people present to lose their colors in shock.
D*mn it, Madman Loria can do it! He really discovered a genius!
Looking at Gareth Bale’s performance, many media reporters in the stands were speechless. Why is Madman Loria so lucky? Why was the young player that this guy fancied so powerful?
At this time, these media reporters were also a little worried. Robert Levandowski couldn’t be a thousand-mile horse, could he? If that was the case, would their faces be swollen?
At this point, the media reporters are thinking of last season’s Edinson Cavani and Carlos Tevez. Many people’s backs twitched and their entire bodies went cold!
No, it won’t!
Madman Loria’s luck wouldn’t explode like this. Robert Levandovsky was a parallel importer, a super parallel importer!
Leeds United conceded the ball on the court.
The goal was scored by one of Leeds United’s own men, Jerome Boateng, who accidentally headed the ball into his own goal while defending a corner kick.
Jerome Boateng was very annoyed and shook his head, feeling very depressed.
Such an opportunity was very, very important to Jerome Boateng. He actually had such a disappointment. What should he do in the future?
The reporters at the scene were excited. They found another parallel product. Even Jerome Boateng proved that Madman Loria’s vision was not great and that Madman Loria could make mistakes.
At this time, Zhong Cheng had replaced Gareth Bale with Danny Ross and Glenn Johnson with Kyle Walker. Zhong Cheng had given these young people a chance.
The speed with which Kyle Walker and Danny Ross went on stage surprised a lot of people.
Kyle Walker’s speed was like a gust of wind. Wasn’t this guy connected to the 100m Flying Man Race? So cowhide?
However, everyone also discovered that Kyle Walker’s physical fitness had exploded. His speed was very fast, but the technique under his feet was a bit rough, and he had a bit of skill in kicking football. The advantages and disadvantages were obvious!
