Full-level pass, please call me the speaker of the Three Lions

Chapter 310 The first step of the Triple Crown!
2 month 27 number.

That's the day before the League Cup final.

After completing the tactical movement training, the Blue Fox generals came to the dining hall talking and laughing, preparing to enjoy lunch.

Arriving in front of the chef, Ling Feng directly ordered:
“Andy, have a Riad Pasta!”

Riad pasta, as the name suggests, is a pasta named after Mahrez.

One day last year, Mahrez wanted to eat a different flavor of pasta.

So he asked the team chef to make him a pasta with tender chicken, cheese, caramelized onions, and a little salt and black pepper.

This is a pasta he concocted based on his personal taste.

After Ling Feng, Vardy and other teammates tried this flavor, they all said it was very good.

From then on, every time the Blue Fox generals wanted to eat, they would say to the chef, "Have a pasta like the one in the Riad!"

After speaking for a while, Mahrez's expression suddenly turned serious: "Ling, do you think we have a chance to win the Triple Crown this season?"

The atmosphere in the entire dining hall is very relaxed and pleasant.

After all, the players must be very happy to see their performances in the League, League Cup and Europa League go hand in hand with brilliant results.

He was like a scumbag who was messing around with women. He could sit wherever he wanted and could chat with any teammate.

Hearing this, Mahrez moved his hands for a moment, and then asked: "Is your girlfriend here?"

Although they are all flamboyant roles with little role.

"But I called N'Golo."

Taking the pasta from the chef and grabbing a glass of fresh orange juice, Ling Feng went straight to a table by the window, facing the training ground outside the window, and began to enjoy his lunch.

Since he came to France to play football at the age of eighteen, Mahrez's French is considered his second mother tongue.

You know, of the 20 assists Ling Feng has sent this season, eight of them have been to Mahrez.

Normally, two people would sit at this table, whether it was breakfast or lunch.

After a while, Mahrez also sat down opposite Ling Feng very naturally, holding a piece of "Riyad Pasta".

"It just so happens that the one at my house said he was going out with his best friend and was not at home. Have you called Jamie?"

Therefore, he is also the teammate in the entire team, other than Ling Feng, who has the most exchanges with N'Golo, a Frenchman.

Normally, he would sit at this table to eat, every day.

The two became friends two years ago.

No, this time he was sitting next to Schmeichel, and the two were talking and laughing.

The two made their debut in the FA Cup and have since become good friends, sparring partners and food partners.

Eating and chatting together can not only enhance the relationship between teammates, but also make the two of them understand each other better on the court.

"I called him, but he said he wanted to stay at home with his wife. You also know that he listens to his wife the most."

Some Hollywood directors even took a fancy to her fame and popularity and invited her to shoot supporting roles in movies.

"No, I'm filming a movie in the United States these two days."

"It's okay, but that guy N'Golo doesn't dare to bet too much. It's not fun to play."

That's his own table.

Gradually, "Riad Pasta" was included in the regular menu of the canteen at Belvoir Base, and it is also one of the most popular types of pasta among players!

However, Vardy has been in the team for a longer time and is not the kind of character who likes to sit at the same table.

However, it was also a new experience for Barbara.

At that time, Mahrez had just joined Leicester City and Ling Feng had just been promoted from the youth team.

The harmonious locker room atmosphere is also one of the important reasons why the Blue Fox can achieve good results!

"Are you going to my house to fight the landlord together tonight?"

Since dating Ling Feng, Barbara's status in the modeling industry has not only risen steadily, but she has also been receiving advertising endorsements.

Of course, Vardy will join the conversation between the two from time to time.

"Thanks."

This season, due to multi-line operations and Ranieri's reasonable lineup rotation, most players in the first team have received sufficient playing time.

It is the close relationship of good friends off the court that allows the two people to reach the same frequency of thinking and tacit understanding on the court, thus mutually reinforcing each other.

As soon as he finished speaking, Mahrez glanced at Vardy not far away, and then nodded at the same time:
"really!"

Among Mahrez's nine assists, six were for Ling Feng!

If the team cannot unite and work together internally, how can it be consistent on the court? !
Mahrez heard Ling Feng's voice ringing in his ears:

"Speak of tomorrow"

This also allowed the two to establish a good relationship.

"It's okay, just relax. We have to play the final tomorrow anyway. It's not good to be too nervous or excited."

As one of the strongest trio in the Premier League, Mahrez this season is more adaptable to the pace and fierce confrontation of the Premier League, and his performance is even better than last season.

Although there was a dazzling presence like Ling Feng around him, it did not cover up his brilliance.

On the contrary, it was precisely because of Ling Feng that more people paid attention to the Leicester City team and the outstanding Algerian Eagle!
Mahrez has made 25 appearances in the Premier League so far this season, scoring 11 goals and providing nine assists.

He is only one assist away from becoming the second player in the Premier League to achieve a double-double in the league after teammate Ling Feng!
His performance in the league and the Europa League has caused his value to skyrocket. From 15 million euros before the start of the game, it doubled in the winter window to 30 million euros!

If Leicester City wins its first Premier League title in team history this season as planned, the value of the Blue Fox players, including Mahrez, will definitely increase to a certain extent.

You know, when Mahrez joined the team in January 2014, he only spent half a million euros!
Half a million euros rose to 60 million euros, a full -fold increase!

This deal can even lock in the most valuable transfer in the history of Leicester City in advance!
Of course, as professional players, their net worth and transfer fees are just numbers to measure their value.

Championship and honor are the ultimate goals they pursue!
This season, as the league has been singing all the way, the League Cup has reached the final, and the Europa League has also reached the top 16, Mahrez has certainly thought about whether the team can win the shocking treble.

The first thing to bear the brunt is naturally the League Cup final that will be staged tomorrow!
Facing Mahrez's curious eyes full of exploration, Ling Feng just smiled slightly and answered with great confidence:

"I can't guarantee the Triple Crown. But I firmly believe that as long as we perform normally tomorrow, the League Cup championship will be the first step for us to win the Triple Crown!"

. . .

2 month 28 number.

London.

Wembley Stadium ushered in the annual League Cup final!
The two sides are the "Blue Fox" Leicester City and the "Red Army" Liverpool! This is the first time Leicester City has reached the League Cup final after 1999 years since the 2000-16 season!

In the history of the League Cup, Leicester City has won the title three times.

Their opponent, Liverpool, is the team that has won the most League Cups!

A full eight times!
Even starting in 1980, the Red Army dominated the League Cup for four consecutive years!
At that time, Liverpool was at its peak!

However, after more than thirty years, Liverpool has once again hit a trough.

After missing out on the within-reaching Premier League title and the important incident of the team's soul, Gerrard, leaving the team, Liverpool has been declining for two consecutive seasons.

This season, after the coaching change, the arrival of German coach Klopp gave fans hope of the Red Army's re-emergence.

Although the team only ranked eighth in the league,
However, there were also many wonderful classic games played in the league.

For example, in the 3-3 draw with Arsenal, both Firmino and Giroud scored twice;

For example, in the 4-5 goal battle with Norwich City, the Red Army scored first but lost 3 goals in a row to their opponents. They activated the DNA passive skill of "Miracle in Istanbul" to catch up and finally lost to Lara. Na scored the winning goal and got a precious three points!
In the League Cup, they went all the way and even defeated Manchester City and reached the final!

Due to the huge hole dug in the opening stage of the league, coupled with the amazing performances of Southampton and West Ham United, the competition in the European theater will be extremely fierce.

But as long as they win the League Cup, even if they fail to enter the European theater in the second half of the league, they can still get a guaranteed ticket to the Europa League next season.

Therefore, Klopp attaches great importance to this game and uses all his main players!

The goalkeeper is Belgian goalkeeper Mignolet, and the four defenders from left to right are Albert Moreno, Sakho, Lucas, and Klein.

The two defensive midfielders are Emre Can and captain Henderson.

Three offensive midfielders, with Coutinho and Milner on the left and right, and Firmino in the middle.

The one at the front is Sturridge, who is returning from injury!
Seeing this starting lineup, Ling Feng was full of confidence.

Although Liverpool is the team that has won the most League Cups, it is also one of the most successful teams in the history of English football.

But that's all in the past.

The current Liverpool lineup cannot be called good.

Moreover, Klopp's time in charge is still short, the staffing is average, and the team's tactical system has not yet been fully constructed.

Looking back at Leicester City, this Blue Fox may be the best eleven in Leicester City history!

If it were Liverpool after gathering the three heroes of the Red Arrows, Ling Feng might be afraid of three points.

But such a Liverpool team with no superstars and no team spirit also wants to prevent them from winning the championship?
It’s simply a fool’s dream!
This season, Leicester City and Liverpool met twice in the league, with a record of one win and one draw, without a defeat.

Their record against Liverpool last season was one draw and one loss, with no wins.

It can be seen that the arrival of Ranieri, Kante, Fuchs, Huth and others has improved this team.

And the progress of old players such as Vardy and Mahrez has finally revealed how strong this Blue Fox has become!
Perhaps only Ranieri, as the head coach, can deeply understand what this team can do.

He also knows that these foxes who are invincible in the Premier League and Europa League do not need to drink chicken blood or drink chicken soup.

Therefore, he did not talk too much in the locker room before the game, but said very sincerely:
"Guys, I have 100% confidence that you can be the winner of that trophy in ninety minutes. So go out there and beat them!"

These words may seem like an understatement, but they are very contagious.

After working with Ranieri for seven months, they all know what their boss's personality is like and how he speaks.

Therefore, they also felt that Ranieri did not lie, but truly felt that they could win the game and win the championship!
And trust makes everyone in the locker room more confident!

The next second, under the leadership of captain Morgan, all the players in the locker room stood up and began to raise their arms and chant:
"Let's kill them!"

"Blue Fox, move forward!!!"

. . .

"Welcome to watch the 2015-16 League Cup final brought to you by Sky Sports."

As players from both sides lined up to enter the stadium, the packed Wembley began to make an earth-shaking noise.

With cheers and applause echoing in his ears, and the League Cup championship trophy placed at the entrance to the stadium, Ling Feng suddenly began to feel excited!
This is the second cup final of his career.

Although it is just a small domestic cup.

However, such a final to determine the championship still makes people feel the cruelty and charm of football more vividly than the long league.

If you win, you will win the championship!
If you lose, go home!
However, this is the final after all.

The slightest difference will determine the final champion.

Therefore, in the first fifteen minutes after the game started, both sides played relatively cautiously.

The Blue Fox's defensive counterattack tactics are destined to focus on defense.

However, after gaining possession of the ball, Liverpool did not rush to attack. Instead, they continued to test Leicester City's defensive formation through small strikes, looking for flaws and weaknesses.

However, such a small fight is like scratching an itch for Leicester City, which has completed the construction of its defensive system.

On the contrary, Blue Fox's counterattack was like an indestructible sharp blade!
"Fifteen minutes have passed since the game. Both Leicester City and Liverpool are very different. However, when there will be a ripple on the calm lake. You never know."

"Oh no! Emre Can's pass was wrong and Kante intercepted it!"

"Kante handed the ball to Ling Feng in front. Is the Blue Fox's counterattack coming?!"

With the cheers of the Blue Fox fans in the stands, Ling Feng caught the ball at the top of the center circle, turned around, and then advanced with the ball without hesitation.

The one who came up to us was Henderson, the current captain of the Red Army!
Facing his national team teammates who looked like they were facing a formidable enemy, Ling Feng was not polite at all and just made soup!
Even though he was mentally prepared, Ling Feng's speed was too fast, and Henderson was still half a beat slower.

Fortunately, the moment he turned around, he subconsciously reached out and grabbed the corner of Ling Feng's jersey to prevent him from getting away from him directly.

Feeling the pull from behind, Ling Feng didn't fall to the ground, but passed the ball directly.

Seeing him pass the ball, Henderson quickly let go of his hand.

However, the moment he let go, Ling Feng suddenly accelerated and rushed forward at high speed!

"Fake!"

Cursing secretly in his mind, Henderson immediately used all his strength to follow him.

At this time, Mahrez, who received the ball from the right, faced Emre Can's defense and passed the ball directly to the space where Ling Feng moved forward.

Immediately afterwards, the two people, who had a perfect understanding of each other, played a continuous wall-to-wall cooperation on the right rib, successfully allowing Mahrez to take the ball and break through the base, and then completed a very high-quality inverted triangle cross.

And Ling Feng in the middle followed up with a push and a low shot!
Bang!
The ball clung to the green turf, flew past Sakho's feet, and then went straight into the near corner of the goal!

As the ball came into close contact with the net, Mignolet made a save and belatedly fell on the goal line.

And that's no use
