Green Journey

Chapter 160 It's all right now, I've taken it all!
On August 8, all members of Leicester City ushered in the first team training game after the assembly of this season.

It just so happens that this day is also an open day for fans and media.

Therefore, a large number of fans and English media were ushered in the Leicester City training base early in the morning.

"I don't know if Chu Zheng can adapt to the Premier League!"

"Hey, some time ago, I always thought that Chu Zheng would join a giant. The worst would be Tottenham, a powerful club like Atletico Madrid. I didn't expect to go to Leicester City. I really don't know what this kid is thinking!"

"Who says it's not! If you want me to say it, I blame Wolfsburg's money-hungry thing for delaying Chu Zheng! I will never buy a Volkswagen again!"

Among the crowd of journalists on the sidelines, a group of Chinese media reporters watched Chu Zheng warming up on the court, talking a lot.

Lin Fan held up his camera and frantically took pictures of Chu Zheng, turning a deaf ear to the words of the compatriots around him.

Chu Zheng's transfer to Leicester City has become a fact, what's the use of complaining so much nonsense, what he cares most about now is Chu Zheng's status in Leicester City.

As for whether Chu Zheng will not be able to adapt to the Premier League, he personally thinks the possibility is very small.

Don't forget that Chu Zheng came out of Chelsea's youth training, and he has the blood of the Premier League in his bones.

And the players trained by the Premier League giants will not be able to adapt to the Premier League, what a joke.

For the Leicester City fans, they are also quietly waiting for the start of the training match.

Leicester City spent a lot of money in the summer transfer window this season.

Chuzheng alone took up half of the transfer budget.

In addition to Chu Zheng, French midfielder N’Golo Kante from Caen in Ligue 900 is 1000 million, Japanese striker Shinji Okazaki from Mainz in Bundesliga is 700 million, Inle from Naples in Serie A is 600 million, and John Benalu from Atlanta Ann 500 million, Robert Huth poached from Stoke City also spent [-] million.

Coupled with Chu Zheng's 4000 million and 2000 million clauses, the club spent more than 8 million euros in Serie A.

With so much fresh blood injected at once, they are curious whether the team's combat power has been strengthened.

Especially what kind of performance will Chu Zheng, a Chinese player, play.

But these Leicester City fans have silently prepared that if Chu Zheng performs poorly, they will boo to death.

At exactly 9 o'clock, the Leicester City players, who were divided into two teams and wore blue and yellow vests, officially started the game.

Chu Zheng was assigned to the blue team, with Kanter, Vardy, Fox, Schmeichel and others.

According to Ranieri's request, the blue team played a double midfielder 442, an unfamiliar formation that Chu Zheng had never been exposed to in Wolfsburg.

The yellow team is a 433 attack formation.

After the game started, the new partners Chu Zheng and Kanter had a clear division of labor.

Chu Zheng is responsible for organizing the offense, while Kanter is responsible for protecting and mopping up the midfield when Chu Zheng goes up.

In the 4th minute of the game, the blue team's left wingback Albrighton held the ball from the side and was blocked by the yellow team's Mahrez and Drinkwater.

"Mark! Pass back!!"

Seeing Albrighton being entangled by Mahrez, Drinkwater circled towards him to grab the ball, Chu Zheng quickly pulled to the side to respond.

During Albrighton's training during this period, he had a bad impression of Chu Zheng.

He didn't trust Chu Zheng and hesitated for a while.

As a result, just as he hesitated for a moment, Drinkwater had already circled in front of him from his right rear blind spot.

Albrighton turned pale with shock, but it was too late to send Chu Zheng back.

Seeing this, Chu Zheng didn't care to get angry. He immediately performed his duties as a midfielder, quickly rushed up, and forced Drinkwater to pass back.

Seeing that Drinkwater successfully grabbed the ball, Mahrez quickly moved to the ribs, opened the distance from Drinkwater, and prepared to play a two-for-one cooperation for Chu Zheng who was grabbing.

Hearing Mahrez's call, Drinkwater quickly half-turned and passed the ball.

However, as soon as the ball left his feet, Chu Zheng's figure slid across the ground, directly shoveling away the ball that was moving laterally.

At this moment, Drinkwater and Mahrez were stunned. They didn't expect Chu Zheng to see through their intentions.

"Wow!!!!!!"

"I buy Karma!! This Chinese is so fast!"

"What a strong explosive force!"

"Magical short-distance acceleration!"

Chu Zheng's wonderful interception caused an uproar among hundreds of Leicester City fans on the sidelines.

On the field, Chu Zheng quickly got up with the inertia of skating, and dribbled the ball along his ribs straight into the yellow team's penalty area.

The yellow team's midfielder Andy King quickly moved laterally to Chu Zheng's side, and teamed up with his own right back Simpson to form a line of defense in the rib area.

At this point, if Chu Zheng continued to push forward with the ball and waited for Drinkwater behind him to come back, then he would be besieged by the three on the wing.

And once you fall into this situation, even if you are as strong as Messi, the probability of taking the ball out is not high.

However, Andy Jin had a good idea, but Chu Zheng was not fooled.

In other words, Chu Zheng was following his plan and using Andy Jin and others' idea of ​​joint defense instead.

At this time, under the coverage of Chu Zheng's line of sight, the defense line of the yellow team's ribs in front of him had already cracked due to the movement of Andy King and Simpson.

Therefore, without any hesitation, Chu Zheng leaned over to the sidewalk.

With Chu Zheng's move, Andy King and Simpson had to move to the side.

"It's now!!"

Seeing that Andy King and Simpson really followed, Chu Zheng, who had just arrived on the sidewalk, sent a through ball with the inside of his left foot without hesitation.

Immediately on the sidelines, countless Leicester City fans petrified, their eyes widened in surprise by Chu Zheng's pass.

On the court, the ball sent by Chu Zheng passed between Andy King and Simpson, and then turned an exaggerated arc from the side to the ribs.

At the same time, Vardy, who was a little belatedly, also discovered the gap in the yellow team's defense line that Chu Zheng had unknowingly torn out at the last moment. He immediately inserted diagonally from the top of the arc to the left, and grabbed it before Morgan. It was Chu Zheng's pass.

Facing the goalkeeper Schwarzer who jumped up from the yellow team, Vardy pouted his butt, carried Wasilewski, and completed the shot with an unconventional awkward posture.

The ball swished under Schwarzer's crotch, and then crossed the goal line from the middle of the goal.

"Wow!!!!!!!!!"

Seeing that the ball really went in, the crowd on the sidelines was in an uproar again.

In the area where the coaching staff was on the sidelines, Ranieri lowered his glasses, stood up directly from the ground, and clapped vigorously at the blue team players on the field.

"Claudio, our vision is not wrong. Chu's talent on the offensive end is more terrifying than the defensive end!" Steve Walsh was full of surprise.

He watched the whole process of the birth of this goal.

Chu Zheng leaned from the side to the side. He dared to say that it was definitely intentional, just to lure Andy and Simpson to the side.

This will expose the gaps in the ribs.

Just now, because of the sudden movement of Andy and Simpson, the yellow team's right central defender Wasilewski had to move to this side to protect the left side of the penalty area and the ribs in front of him.

But Vasilewski moved without saying hello, and in an instant the distance between him and left center back Huth was opened.

As a result, Chu Zheng took advantage of this fleeting opportunity and gap, and directly sent the ball over.

Of course, Vardy's running position is also very smart.

Seeing the first chemical reaction between Chu Zheng and Vardy, Steve Walsh was extremely excited at this moment.

During this period of time, he was the sports director of Leicester City. Because of the huge cost of Chu Zheng's transfer, he was not only questioned by the outside world, but even a senior executive in Leicester City also criticized him.

Fortunately, the boss Vichai supported him unswervingly, otherwise he would be under a lot of pressure.

Well now, Chu Zheng seems to have initially integrated into Leicester City.

Once Chu Zheng has an outstanding performance in the future, it will prove that he is right, and all those who have doubts about this transfer will shut up.

On the sidelines, Lin Fan and others also hung up their cameras and gave Chu Zheng sincere applause with a comfortable smile.

The timing of catching the ball amazed them, typical Chu Zheng's style!

But this is still not the real Chu Zheng!
"Chu! You really surprised me!"

"Are you surprised?" Chu Zheng's expression of needing to be beaten for granted made the smile on Vardy's face more intense.

"Chu! I like you more and more!"

"Out! I'm not gay!"

"Ha ha!"

On the court, Vardy and Chu Zheng walked shoulder to shoulder, chatting and laughing as if they were good brothers and walked towards their own half.

At this moment, the waves caused by Chu Zheng's pass in Vardy's heart just now have not dissipated.

Vardy never expected that Chu Zheng's seemingly inaccurate passing ability in training would actually send such a deadly pass in the game that made him feel like he was electrifying.

Vardy is 27 years old this year, and he has a lot of experience in both professional and non-professional games.

But it is the first time he has seen a through ball that can grasp the space and the timing of the pass so accurately.

Chu Zheng's ability to create gaps and pass the ball unconsciously amazed him!

If it were Drinkwater, Andy King, and Schroop, they would not be able to pass this kind of ball if they were killed.

Chu Zheng's assist exposed too many things that made Vardy feel incredible.

"Hey!" Thoughts came to mind, Vardy looked back at Drinkwater behind him.

He felt that some of these little friends were going to be unlucky, and it was really very unfortunate to face such a contender in the midfield!

At this time Drinkwater and Andy King were both extremely shocked.

They also waited for Chu Zheng to pass the ball before they suddenly realized that they had been fooled.

Drinkwater stared at Chu Zheng's back, and now he suddenly had the illusion that the Chu Zheng he saw a few days ago was a fake.

He doesn't know if Chu Zheng is disguising himself on purpose, he only knows that if this is Chu Zheng's real strength, then these midfielders will usher in a terrifying competitor, which will greatly reduce their playing time .

From the tactical lessons in the past few days, every player can see that the new head coach is going to play a double midfielder 442.

Coupled with Ranieri's undisguised love for Chu Zheng during this period, Chu Zheng will definitely occupy a starting position.

The club spent so much money, they would never buy it to sit on the bench.

The characteristics of Drinkwater and Andy King are that they cannot play two side midfielders.

So there is only one position left for them, and they need to compete for posts!
