Chapter 16: Surprise Soldier

A relaxed party, Xia Xing and the whole team have a more harmonious relationship.

Xia Xing likes this team more and more.

The atmosphere in the team is good, and the fighting spirit is also good.

If it weren't for the bad luck last season, they should have appeared in the Premier League now.

Hardworking Vardy, I have a mutual understanding with him.

Captain Morgan is strict, but he takes good care of me.

De Laet, Matthew James, Drinkwater, three former Manchester United players are simply the "three funny treasures" of the team.

Andy King is a man of few words, and he is a very nice person.

Although Chris Wood is very proud, he does have the ability to help the team conquer the city.

Konchesky is a righteous man and gets along well with everyone.

Drinkwater said to Xia Xing: "Konchesky is a very good person. Last season, Matthew James was fouled by the opponent and fell to the ground. Konchesky rushed up and beat him!"

Xia Xing: "Teammate of the century!"

De Laet added in a low voice: "But you have to be careful, don't mention Chelsea in front of him."

Xia Xing: "I heard that he was a Liverpool player before. He should be unhappy with Manchester United and Everton. Why is he annoyed with Chelsea?"

De Laet: "Because his sister is the ex-wife of England's central defender John Terry, so he is very unhappy whenever he hears anything related to Terry."

Xia Xing: "Is it so exaggerated?"

"If you don't believe me, I'll give it a try," Drinkwater suddenly shouted, "Guys, James just said that John Terry is the best defender in England. I strongly disagree. What about you?"

Before others could react, Konchesky rushed over.

"Whoever praises Terry is just trying to make things difficult for me! I'll kill him!"

"Dude, don't get excited! I didn't say Terry is the best defender!"

"I helped you fight last season, but I'm going to beat you today!"

"Drinkwater! You bastard!!!"

There were bursts of laughter in the yard.

Ariana beside Xia Xing laughed so hard that she could hardly stand up straight.

A relaxing party, all the players of Leicester City were relaxed.

Except for a few players who had a day off after a slight ankle sprain, the whole team is getting better and better.

More than ten days of hard training are mainly to help the players regain their tight physical condition and return to competitive form from vacation.

And then, it is important tactical training.

Friendly matches are the best test.

At the end of July, Leicester City arranged three consecutive home friendly matches.

Before the start of the English Championship in early August, the lineup should be adjusted as soon as possible.

On July 23, the King Power Stadium finally became lively again.

Although it was just a friendly match, the warm atmosphere was no less than that of a formal match.

This stadium, which can accommodate 32,500 fans, is a well-known stadium in England.

The stadium is fully equipped with seats, and each seat is unobstructed, which is very comfortable. It is the 19th largest stadium in England.

Even some Premier League teams cannot compare.

This is the heritage of a team with a century of history.

Today their opponent is York City, a team from English League Two.

Choosing a weak team to lead the team, Pearson wanted to test the team's offensive power.

As a strong team in the English Championship that almost succeeded in the Super League last season, Leicester City's strength is far from that of York City.

The difference in the value of the players is more than ten times, which is the best reflection.

York City's goal in this game is also very simple, which is to defend and counterattack.

They arranged a 5-4-1 formation to meet the powerful Leicester City.

In the team locker room, the players were very relaxed.

Vardy patted Xia Xing on the shoulder: "Man, you will definitely have a chance to play in this game, I bet."

De Laet next to him also agreed: "Yes, we will definitely win this game, and the coach will definitely try various playing styles."

Matthew James: "Yes, and even if a player like Xia plays, we will definitely win."

Xia Xing: "What do you mean by a player like me playing..."

Matthew James: "No, that's not what I mean. I mean even if it's a player like you who has no experience and poor physical condition... it's not..."

Drinkwater: "If you can't talk, don't talk. I think Xia's body has become much stronger. He must be a surprise soldier."

Matthew James: "Cavalry, I'm also an infantry..."

De Laet: "Speak properly! No wonder you are always beaten and scolded, you just can't talk!"

Matthew James: "I'm just XXXX..."

Everyone talked and laughed, and everyone was particularly relaxed about this game.

Yes, after all, there is a difference of three leagues.

"You can play more openly in this game, especially in attack. If you can't win against such an opponent, haha."

Although the coach Pearson's words were serious, no one took them seriously.

There is no way there will be any problems in this game!

Today, Leicester City continued the 4-4-2 formation of last season.

In the starting lineup, the goalkeeper is Schmeichel.

The four defenders from left to right are De Laet, Konchesky, Wes Morgan, and Liam Moore.

The four midfielders from left to right are Lloyd Dale, Andy King, Drinkwater, and Matthew James.

The two forwards are Vardy and Chris Wood.

On the bench sat Knocket, Nugent, Taylor Fletcher, Schlupp, Hammond, Whitbread, Wasilewski, St. Leger and other players.

Of course, Xia Xing was among them.

From the first minute of this game, Leicester City had an absolute advantage.

Especially in the midfield and backcourt, they were full of the style of a strong team.

Andy King is a standard No. 10 player, with some flavor of a classic front midfielder, and very comprehensive characteristics.

Drinkwater is the most important player in Leicester City's midfield, even more important than Andy King. His skills are top-notch in the Championship, with excellent offense and defense, and first-class passing and stealing. Last season, a Premier League team had already taken a fancy to him. If he hadn't been unable to get a starting position, he might have left Leicester City by now.

The two wingers, Dale and James, are standard British wingers. Fast speed and good dribbling are two sharp blades in Leicester City's fast attack.

The midfield combination of these four people is absolutely first-class.

The four-man team in the backcourt was also the key guarantee for Leicester City to achieve good results last season.

De Laet and Liam Moore are young and strong, and have good assist ability.

The central defenders partnered with captain Morgan and Konchesky, two strong and tough guys like iron gates, firmly guarding Leicester City's penalty area.

Goalkeeper Schmeichel is a descendant of a famous family. His father was a meritorious goalkeeper of Manchester United's triple crown, and he is also very capable.

If you only look at the midfield and backcourt, Leicester City is definitely the best in the Championship, enough to deter any opponent.

But if you add the forward line, the overall strength of this team is a little bit off...
