Chapter 127 Overconfidence
Chapter 127 Overconfidence
After drawing with West Ham United in their first league match, they immediately lost in the second round.
The opponent is Chelsea...
Burton Albion have not yet adapted to the pace of the Premier League.
Despite their hard work, tactical awareness is not something that can be caught up with in a short time, especially given that most of their players are young.
The significance of bringing in veterans like Ibrahimovic, Pepe, and Cazorla lies precisely in this.
Hopefully, they can share more of their experience with the younger players.
Li Yanqing is quite anxious about the team's current situation because the schedule is not favorable for them.
Next up is Everton, then Leicester City, and then Manchester City...
They are all teams from the upper bracket.
On the training ground.
"Hey, focus, forget whether this is the Premier League or Serie A."
"Aren't they all just people anyway?"
"Just get past him!"
Ibrahimovic was very dissatisfied with Anderson's performance in the two games. He asked Raiola to recommend the player to Li Yanqing in the hope that he would help him, not drag him down.
He was the team's offensive linchpin in these two games, but he was basically dispossessed as soon as he got the ball.
Anderson knew he hadn't performed well, but he didn't say much and just trained silently.
Quinn and Enzo also had poor performances.
The latter is sparring with Cazorla, while as for Quinn, nobody is talking to him.
Nasri is busy finding his rhythm and doesn't have time.
With a match against Manchester City looming soon, the player's emotions are a bit volatile, and he wants to play in the next few games to maintain his form.
"You'll be on the bench for the next few games, Quinn."
"Watch how Nasri plays more."
Li Yanqing came over himself to inform Quinn.
Needless to say, Nasri will definitely give it his all in these matches, especially when facing Manchester City.
He wasn't even sure how many more games the opponent could play.
Once the opponent is injured, it's basically game over for him/her in football.
“Okay.” Quinn nodded; he was always obedient.
"You were completely shut down by that guy in the previous match."
"Watch how Nasri handles the opponent's defensive midfielder."
What pleased Li Yanqing was that Quinn did not experience any emotional fluctuations due to his poor performance.
He has gradually matured.
"Declan Rice".
"Don't worry, boss."
“He’s not much older than me. When I face him again, I won’t lose.”
Quinn's face remained calm, but it was clear that he was still very concerned about his performance.
He even remembered the names of the opposing players.
"I believe you." Li Yanqing had nothing else to say.
From the very beginning, his expectations for Quinn far exceeded those of others.
Even Murphy, who has consistently performed well, has always been considered a substitute by him.
But Quinn is different; he is the undisputed core player.
"Hey, speaking of which, I haven't seen Murphy."
"They were here when roll call was taken earlier."
Li Yanqing looked around the training ground with some confusion.
There are two people on the team who train the hardest: Sun Yan and Murphy.
He's not the kind of person who hides away and slacks off.
"Maybe they're with the youth training team."
"Mr. Chris seems to be here too."
Quinn happened to know something about this.
Li Yanqing rushed to the youth training team.
It's obvious that Chris was there because of Blanche.
So why was Murphy there?
At this moment, the youth training team's training ground is also where the junior class is located.
Rhine was touching his bald head, looking at Chris with a helpless expression.
He was squatting in front of little Blanche, trying to persuade her.
"Blanche, don't listen to your father."
"You should be at home reading in a pretty dress, instead of sunbathing on the training field in this sweltering heat..."
Little Blanche was just as stubborn as Cheng Mengmeng; she grabbed Chris's beard and shouted.
"This is not what Dad meant."
"This is my own decision!"
"Blanche will become the best female soccer player in the world!"
"This is too hard..." Chris's persuasion was obviously useless, but he just didn't want to give up.
"Mr. Chris, let Blanche kick it."
"What's wrong with female soccer players...?"
Murphy never understood why Chris was so vehemently opposed to it.
"Don't joke around, Murphy. What's the odds of a player making it this far?"
“You know this better than I do.”
What if Blanche doesn't become famous?
"Live your life like Will?"
"I can't agree to that!"
“Uh…” Murphy and Rhine both fell silent.
Competitive sports, regardless of the event, are brutal, and many people will be eliminated.
Rhine's youth team has more than fifty players, but so far only Quinn and Murphy have made it to the top.
Before this, there were even more people who hadn't even managed to get a youth training contract.
Chris is a rational person most of the time, and he doesn't want Blanche to do something with a low success rate.
"Whether it will succeed or not, we'll only know after we try, right?"
A young man with an Asian face walked over from not far away.
It's Li Yichuan.
Li Yanqing hired a tutor for him, and now, almost half a year later, he can communicate normally.
He learns very quickly, at least faster than Sun Yan.
He clearly dismissed Chris's statement.
"If you don't even have the courage to try, I don't think you'll succeed at anything."
"Whether it's players or toast, the principle is the same."
“You’re still a substitute in the youth training team!” Chris remembered him and knew that he was brought over by Li Yanqing.
It's been a whole year, and he still hasn't made it into the starting lineup.
In his view, the other side was not far from defeat.
"Stop spouting platitudes here, let's let the facts speak for themselves!"
"Uh, Chris, actually I announced a few days ago that he would be the starting striker for the youth team," Rhein whispered.
"Huh?" Chris was a little annoyed by this. There were so many people present, yet not a single one spoke up for him.
"Chris!" At this moment, Li Yanqing finally arrived and breathed a sigh of relief after understanding the situation.
He thought it was something serious.
"I don't think it's a problem. If you're worried, you can let little Blanche play football while studying."
"Playing football on the same time? How can you study then?" Chris didn't think the two things could be done at the same time.
Li Yanqing patted him on the shoulder.
"Don't worry, it's just an exam."
"Don't forget where I come from."
"From a young age, our philosophy has been to get the question right, no matter if we know the answer or not..."
Chris remained silent.
He thought of Cheng Mengmeng, the top student he had worked with before.
Is this the source of her willful audacity?
"Don't worry, you can leave it to us... Hmm?"
Li Yanqing was speaking when his eyes swept over Li Yichuan, who was standing to the side.
Then, he couldn't say anything more.
