Dream Training : The Champions

[The South Coast derby has ended tragically for Portsmouth, Southampton is in extraordinary performance.]

[Portsmouth Coach : It's my fault, we lost strategically and also the quality of the players.]

[Looking at how far Kazuki can shine in this season, the top scorer candidate for 2012/2013? ]

Various magazines reviewed Southampton's win over Portsmouth. This was Southampton's fourth straight win. Although there were only four but so far only 3 teams have been able to maintain their victory. First, Chelsea, followed by Liverpool and finally Southampton. Of the three teams above, it was clear, Southampton was the only middle club that still maintains a winning streak.

On the other hand, Kazuki who had scored 6 goals left his competitor, Ahmed, who had only scored 2 goals. If Kazuki could maintain his consistency in scoring goals. So there was no doubt that this year's top scorer will fall to the young man from Japan.

It was almost a year for Kazuki to get [Dream Training]. The changes that [Dream Training] had brought about were truly extraordinary. Kazuki's ability was now able to match Europe's top stars. But overall his abilities are still below superstars like Mattheo. The presence of Dream Training also allowed Kazuki to stably display his best performance. This helped Kazuki to get through the ups and downs of appearances that young players usually experienced.

As examples, there were Rustan, Wright-Phillips and Joe Bennet. These three players sometimes play well but often they play worse than their usual performance. Especially Wright-Phillips, he spent too many time at the night club and having fun with the other players which made his performances on the training ground were often subpar.

One of the things that made young players fail to fulfill their potential was a lack of discipline. Having fun was not wrong, but if you had too much waste your time to interfere your professional life, then that's when you destroy your professional life.

While what happened to Joe Bennet and Rustan was normal, even though they both appear bad at times, this was more because of the instability of the mentality of the two players. For example Rustan, sometimes he wants to stand out and force himself to break into the opponent's penalty box instead of providing a pass.

Under these circumstances, Southampton faced the Carabao Cup. Southampton will play against third tier club, so George did not include the main players in the big list of matches. He played substitutes who often filled the bench.

In the match, although it was fierce, Southampton finally won with a score of 3-1. Osmund scored two goals while Vicente scored 1 goal. This victory made Southampton advance to the next round of the Carabao Cup.

After the victory, the fifth round of the Premier League was coming. The most exciting match in the fifth round was the match between Chelsea and Manchester City. Apart from the defeat they suffered from Southampton, Manchester City managed to win 3 league rounds in a row. David Silva, Belloti and Aguero performance was in a hot state.

Meanwhile, Southampton will travel to the King Power Stadium to face Leicester. The Fox started the season quite badly. After losing Maddison they failed to find someone who could replace Maddison's role in midfield. From the 4 rounds that have taken place Leicester were only able to collect 2 draws, one defeat and one win.

In a pre-match interview, Nigel Pearson gave an admission about the match, he said, "Southampton are in good perform. This game will be a tough challenge for Leicester. Looking at Southampton now, I'm not surprised if at the end of the season they can reach Top 4. As long as Kazuki can maintain his performance, I think Southampton is a very threatening team.

Even so, we will still try to do our best in tomorrow's match. After all, King Power is our home."

What Nigel Pearson said regarding Southampton was taken as a joke to many. Just because Southampton achieved 4 wins in a row doesn't mean they can reach the top 4. The Premier League still had a long way to go. Consistency was the main key. The deepness squad of each medium club was lost to the big clubs. On the other hand, although Southampton was have good players, it was not mean Southampton will always win. The tactics and strengths of the players were either soft power such as enthusiasm, or hard power, namely the ability or skill of the player as a whole.

The above became something important if a team wants to achieve good results in the league. One example was Montpellier. Although at first glance, it looks like Pogba and Anthony who brought the team to victory. But, actually, the Montpellier genius coach was more important. Analyze every game of Montpellier and you will discover how genius Nagelsman was.

Oliver Gerrard, Pogba, Anthony Martial were products of Nagelsman's coaching abilities. Reportedly, Real Madrid was interested in signing Nagelsman. But for now the coach was still coaching Montpellier. According to the media, one of the reasons Nagelsman rejected Real Madrid was for trying to make a breakthrough in the Champions League.

Meanwhile George responded to Nigel Pearson's words in a pre-match interview. He said, "We must not underestimate Leicester. Even though they have lost a key player there are some players who are doing quite well at Leicester despite their poor results.

Southampton will come to King Power Stadium in full force. All players are in good condition. In this match, Simone was able to compete again."

George was right because if you look at the Leicester game, one can see two players who really stood out. First, Riyad Mahrez, this player looks more mature than last season. From four matches he has made 1 goal and 2 assists. Second, Ngogi Kante. He always performed tirelessly in midfield. Help alternate defense and attack. The performances of these two players were clearly better than last season.

On the other hand, Hugo, who came from Southampton, performed quite well. Besides that, some young players like Vardy and Drinkwater look to be quite promising players. Nigel Pearson was also a great coach, George hadn't the brave to underestimate Leicester City.

If Southampton could win this match, then they will extend their winning streak since the start of the season. This will be an achievement for the club nicknamed The Saints.

The next day Leicester fans filled up the King Power Stadium. In facing Southampton, they gave full support to The Fox. The game against Leicester was tougher than against Portsmouth. Kazuki himself was really looking forward to this match, he wanted to see how far Kante had progressed.

Various media were waiting whether Southampton will continue their winning streak? will Kazuki be able to score in five consecutive matches? These questions could only be answered after watching this match.
