my name is ferguson

() In the second round of the league, Li Cha led his team to face Crystal Palace at Giger Lane.

This time Li Cha finally felt the cruelty of the British Championship. The coach of Crystal Palace prepared three sets of tactics with the same team. These three sets of tactics were completely to restrain the three changes of the "spring tactics"!

Crystal Palace's first tactic was 541. The sweeper dragged back and the back line moved forward. The distance between the two was opened by three meters, and they could echo each other at any time.This just restrains the "pop-up method" of the spring tactics, that is to say, no matter which point of Burleigh is the core, no matter which point pops up, the scavengers of the Crystal Palace will meet it on time and make no mistakes, quickly take fouls or destroy the ball!

Seeing that the Crystal Palace coach came prepared, Li Cha immediately told the team to slow down their attacking speed and maintain possession of the ball, and the formation was compressed and began to retreat gradually, intending to lure Crystal Palace out to play a fast break. At this moment, Crystal Palace changed their formation... 3421!

The Eagles (there is an eagle on the Crystal Palace team badge, so their nickname is the Eagles) only three players were seduced by Burleigh, and the remaining seven players defended intensively in the backcourt. This is obviously Crystal Palace coach Ian?Doy is specially designed for Burleigh.ian?Doy is a head coach who is very good at training defense. Logically speaking, this kind of head coach who can train defense to a watertight should be coaching in the Premier League... Ian?The problem with Doy is that he is only good at training defense, but not good at counterattack. This is why Crystal Palace has advanced to the play-offs this season but failed to upgrade. Doy was also fired after the end of the season.

Facts have proved that Crystal Palace's offense is indeed not very good, and even the counterattack can be easily resolved by Burleigh.

This is the first time for Li Cha to face such a head coach who is good at changing formations and can also take into account defense during the formation. In this situation, he can only be forced to constantly adjust.

This time Li Cha made another adjustment. He stretched out his arms and quickly swung to the sides. The players immediately understood what he meant. The boss wanted them to give up the middle lane and attack the hinterland of Crystal Palace from the side lanes.

In the 74th minute of the second half, Richard replaced Van Persie with Cavani when he could not break the deadlock. In this intensive defense, Van Persie's role was not obvious at all.

After Cavani came on the court, the frontcourt has improved to some extent, but Di Natale has become a weak point again. Cavani alone can't threaten the Crystal Palace with his body to block the opponent's ball; 80 minutes, Di Natale Substituted, Falcao appeared on the pitch, and the two powerful strikers finally ushered in their first debut at the same time.

In the 85th minute, Burleigh, who had a fulcrum for the ball in the frontcourt, continued to increase his offensive strength. Li Cha changed his tactics again when the game was about to end, and the "semi-displaced spring tactics" began to appear in the league!

In 87 minutes, Cavani carried the opponent's defender on the penalty area line and crossed the ball diagonally to the rear. The Crystal Palace defender didn't quite understand what Burleigh meant and why the center forward stood in the position of the shadow forward. Farr Kao rushing up is a long-range heavy artillery.This kick was so powerful that it just flew over the heads of the Crystal Palace players. The moment the Crystal Palace goalkeeper made a quick save, the football gradually lifted into the air and fell into the stands one inch above the crossbar...

There was an exclamation from the court, and the fans felt sorry for the ball.

Crystal Palace made an emergency change at the last moment of the game, changing two wingers in a row, turning the backcourt defense into a 901 style of play with five defenders and four midfielders, Ian?Doy has already fought for this 1 point. He can only make himself more secure in the coaching position if he successfully upgrades Crystal Palace. Who doesn't know that Crystal Palace changes coaches frequently?Li Cha remembered that someone in the later generations made a statistic for the Crystal Palace. The Eagles actually changed 13 head coaches in [-] years. This shows that...

In the 94th minute, Burleigh ushered in the last chance. When Ashley, who was protruding forward, took the ball and rushed near the penalty area line, he finally saw Cavani appearing in the position of the shadow forward to observe himself. At the same moment, the defender of Crystal Palace was also Defending him, and Falcao in the center position is ready to respond at any time...Ashley did not waste the opportunity, the ball was passed between the crystal ball sweeper and the defender, Cavani ran wild from the half of the penalty area Killed out, at that moment, the tense muscles of Cavani's long-haired face seemed to prove how much he wanted to score this goal!

Catch the ball, stop the ball, kick it!

Cavani kicked before the opponent's sweeper fell to the ground and tried to block the ball with his body. The football flew out close to the body of the Crystal Palace sweeper... Li Cha gritted his teeth and clenched his fists at the moment the ball was fired. He yelled, "Get in!!!"

bump!

The doorpost... mocked Li Cha's wishful thinking with a loud bang, and at this moment...

beep!

The referee blew the whistle for the whole game, and the score remained 0:0.

Li Cha didn't even shake hands and went directly to the stands. He was stopped by reporters on the way and only said a few words. He knew that the players needed time to adapt to the intensity of the competition and the competition in the Championship, but he still felt It's a feeling that each of my players is better than the other, but they can't win when they are pinched together.

He knows that the team needs to run in to bring out the power of the "semi-displaced spring tactic", but this kind of suffering of not being able to succeed and not being considered a failure can only be understood by those who have been head coaches.

Li Cha endured the criticism from all the fans by himself. After the game, he said in front of the reporters that Burleigh, who was invincible in the past, would definitely come back. If the current failures and failures require a person to stand up and take responsibility , this person must be him.

He walked up to the old Kewell's commentary stand, picked up the microphone and yelled loudly to the fans who hadn't dispersed yet: "i'm-sorry..."

The fans who originally planned to leave were stunned, and then the old Kewell was the first to stand on the commentary stand and began to applaud.

Crack, crack, crack... crack, crack, crack!

Starting with Kewell, the applause was connected into pieces, and all the fans wearing Burleigh's white jerseys set off a huge wave of applause.

Old Kewell took the microphone away from Li Cha's hand, patted Li Cha on the shoulder and said, "Don't worry Li Cha, no one blames you, which team hasn't been in a bad state? What's more, we are newly promoted!"

"Li Cha, listen to the fans." Kewell took the microphone and walked towards a young fan who was only twelve or thirteen years old and said, "Little guy, what do you think of the bad state of the team?"

With his father's permission, the young man said: "I don't think this is our problem, but that the team has just been promoted and is not used to it. After all, the English Championship is higher than the League One. Every team here is working hard to enter the Premier League. , it can be said that every game is a battle..."

"Little guy, if you continue to speak the same official language as Burleigh's wife, I will remove the microphone (Charlotte is Burleigh's press officer)." Cowell drew laughter from the audience.

After the laughter was over, the young man grabbed the microphone and said, "Actually, I want to say that it is an honor for us to have a protagonist who apologizes to the fans for the draw, Richard, we love you!!!"

This time the fans were not incited by anyone, they collectively raised their hands and shouted: "Li Cha, we love you!!!"

"Li Cha, we love you!!!"

"We love you Richard!! Love Burleigh even more!!!"

Old Kewell changed his slogan, and suddenly there were shouts of landslides and ground cracks in Jiger Lane.

Keane stood on the field and stared blankly at all the Giger Lane fans, his eyes began to moisten involuntarily.It's an infectious atmosphere that makes you feel like you can't live without being in it and feeling that kind of love that's so intense that it's like an ocean.

"I see which one of you has the guts to lose the next game in front of such fiery fans!" Keane gritted his teeth and said viciously.

Ashley stood up and said, "Don't worry, we don't want to be abandoned by the fans."

……

Immediately afterwards, Richard flew to Switzerland and brought back the group list in the UEFA draw:

Group A: Monaco, Bragravia, Hamburg, CSKA Sofia, Viking.

Group B: Lokomotiv Moscow, Espanyol, Palermo, Brondby, Maccabi.

Group C: Hertha Berlin, Lens, Sampdoria, Steaua Bucharest, Halmstad.

Group D: Alkmaar, Newcastle, Dinipro, Grasshopper, Litex.

Group E: Roma, Auxerre, Red Star Belgrade, Strasbourg, Temroso.

Group F: CSKA Moscow, Marseille, Sofia Livski, Burleigh, Dynamo Bucharest.

……

Due to winning two League Cup titles and reaching the second round of the UEFA Cup knockout round last season, Burleigh is divided into the fourth echelon this time, one level higher than the last time, which is the first time in the history of the UEFA Cup. precedent!Until now, the UEFA Cup has never promoted the teams participating in the secondary league to the fourth echelon. Perhaps this is the first time that Burleigh has a place in UEFA's heart, although it only occupies a small position .

When Li Cha returned to Burleigh with the group list, everyone looked at Li Cha. They thought their luck was 'too good'. The last time the UEFA Cup met the two heroes of Serie A and La Liga, this time it was even worse. Well, the Russian giants and the Ligue [-] powerhouse are facing Burleigh, not to mention that CSKA Moscow was the champion of the UEFA Cup last season!

Keane said to Richard at the team meeting (actually sitting on the Stanton lawn after training) and said: "Well, um..." He coughed twice before continuing: "Mr. There is cowardice in the eyes of Ashley and Albiol, so it is best not to play them in the UEFA Cup..."

"No way!" Ashley and Albiol stood up at the same time.

Li Cha smiled and said, "Okay, let's show your assistant coaches the performance in the next English Championship. Actions will always speak louder than words!"

……

Burleigh is actively preparing for the game in full swing, and Jason's agency is also not idle. After news reports of Mourinho watching the game came out in the English Championship, transfer turmoil continued to pervade the streets of England.Immediately afterwards, Mourinho told reporters very mysteriously that he was actually here to pay attention to a flying wing of the British Championship. With the transfers and clamoring for a bigger stage, the whole of England understood what it was all about.At the same time, Shawcross went very smoothly. After directly submitting the transfer application, he just waited for a club to come and pick him up. Manchester United would not do anything to keep him.

Until this moment, Jason hadn't analyzed anything from Chelsea's transfer policy, which shows how money can blind the eyes!

Immediately afterwards, Chelsea made an offer to Hull City, leaving only one sentence when they wanted to buy a flying wing worth 60 million for 230 pounds. The player has no intention of staying in the British Championship.

Mourinho began to praise the player in the media. There were two scenes of Mourinho praising people in the three days of sports news... Li Cha was in front of the TV, looking for how the team could play as soon as possible. Entering the state, while listening to the news, I kept giggling.

"Honey, what are you laughing at?" Charlotte asked as she walked in with a cup of coffee.

Li Cha turned around and said, "It's nothing, I just saw a clown jumping on the beam and didn't know it was about to die. Some... just gloated."

Charlotte walked to Li Cha's chair, put her arms around his shoulders, and when she leaned over with a smell of body fragrance, she softly whispered in his ear: "Honey... say, you are holding back your fear again." who."
