Star Card System

Baresi, Maldini, Nesta, Cannavaro, Facchetti.

Caniggia, Alan Shearer, Figo, Ferdinand, Ronaldo.

Ten names are extremely dazzling.

Ten tasks with different difficulties.

But they are all exciting.

There were four SS-level cards in the ten tasks at the beginning of last season.

There is only one SS-level card this season.

Although the number of top cards is less, Xia Xing still looks at the tasks with a gleam in his eyes.

For him, his data attributes are already very good now.

The attack power is definitely at the top level of the Premier League, and the defense is definitely good enough.

The next upgrade path, whether it is to continue to enhance the advantages or to strengthen the shortcomings, is good.

Especially his current defensive ability, there are obvious shortcomings.

In the midfield defense last season, most of it was completed by relying on strength, speed and physical fitness.

He still lacks a lot of real defensive skills.

If these defensive masters are absorbed, the defensive ability will surely improve by leaps and bounds.

By then, I will be a top-notch midfielder.

Actually, it is still the case now.

Xia Xing is still not satisfied with his strength and is still working hard, but in the eyes of his teammates, he is really a super strong existence.

Especially the new teammates.

On the training ground, when Xia Xing intercepted two consecutive passes from Inler and Okazaki Shinji in the midfield, Van Persie, who was running in vain, was stunned.

"Xia, aren't you an offensive player? How come your defense is so strong?"

When facing Manchester United last season, Van Persie didn't have many opportunities to play and was basically recovering from injuries.

And Xia Xing's performance on the field made Van Persie ignore his defensive ability.

Now I see it, it's really bright.

This young man is stronger than I thought!

In defense, new aid Fox and Ben Aruane are even more impressed.

Xia Xing's defensive cooperation in the midfield made them play very comfortably.

What a great midfielder.

But when the formation and combination changed, they soon felt bitter.

How can this guy have such a strong offensive ability?

Xia Xing dribbled the ball on the left side, shook off three teammates in a row, and shot into the net.

The young Chilwell was stunned by the pass.

Xia Xing: "Dude, stand up and keep going."

Chilwell: "Brother, I can't catch up with half of your value in my life, you are too fierce..."

In just a few days, Xia Xing's performance conquered his teammates.

Especially the new teammates.

They are full of confidence in Leicester City's new season!

With such a midfield core, we can even rush for the Premier League championship!

Xia Xing impressed them, but there were also people who impressed Xia Xing.

After the first few days of the competition, someone fought with Xia Xing.

French little Kante.

Facing Xia Xing, Kante consciously approached him and took the initiative to defend.

And Xia Xing also felt the pressure from him.

Sometimes Xia Xing even passed Kante, but soon lost the chance.

Either Kante quickly made up for the defense, or Kante cleverly cut off the best offensive line.

In the end, Xia Xing still often relied on cooperation with his teammates to get past Kante.

In the team training, Kante ranked first in the success rate of one-on-one defense against Xia Xing.

And if you don't consider stealing the ball and just stick to Xia Xing, it will be difficult for Xia Xing to break free.

Xia Xing was very shocked.

This buddy is awesome!

With this defensive ability, it's not an exaggeration to say that he is in the top three in the Premier League!

Kante's defensive ability was recognized by Xia Xing and the whole team.

Especially in Ranieri's heart, Kante has even become the second most popular after Xia Xing.

And in several lineup changes, Kante has also become the best defensive midfielder in Ranieri's heart.

Assistant coach Shakespeare was satisfied: "Last season we wanted to get a good defensive midfielder to completely liberate Xia Xing and allow him to devote more energy to the offense. Now it's good, we finally have it, you now..."

He looked around happily and suddenly froze.

Oh, that man is gone.

Still a little uncomfortable.

Ranieri saw through Shakespeare's mind, and he didn't mind. Instead, he patted his shoulder gently with a sincere look.

"Man, thank you for staying to help me."

"Well, it's not really helping you. I just don't want to leave Leicester City."

"I know there are several clubs trying to recruit you this summer, and there is also the position of head coach."

"I'm not suitable to be a head coach now. It's too tiring. I like to be an assistant coach."

"Then it's not bad to be an assistant coach in a big club."

"Forget it. Anyway, we are all assistant coaches. It's so good to be in Leicester City. I like it here."

"You're right. I like it here too!"

The two looked towards the direction of the stadium. The Leicester City players were playing a training match.

This summer, they were in good physical condition and soon entered the rhythm of the game.

In late July, Leicester City arranged four friendly matches.

The opponents were not strong, from the English Championship, Belgian League, and Portuguese Super League.

But the process was amazing.

In four games, two 1-0 and two 2-1.

All were small wins.

But you decide whether they won or not.

After watching Leicester City's four friendly matches, the Leicester Evening News published a commentary.

“After watching these four games, I completely understand why Leicester City invited him.

“Because his coaching characteristics are so similar to Pearson’s.

“It’s all big runs in the midfield and tough defense.

“It’s all quick offense, defensive counterattacks.

“Even if the opponent is not strong, Leicester City defends steadily.

“It’s really amazing.

"But Ranieri is a famous coach after all, and the changes he has brought to Leicester City are not small.

“For example, in the offensive data of these games, the team’s effective passing rate is much higher than last season.

"And the cooperation of several new players is also very good. It seems that Ranieri has a very good way of engaging the team.

"For him, this kind of team has a good atmosphere, no big-name stars, and the players are united.

"This is the best stage for Ranieri.

“I even think maybe Leicester City will bring us a bigger miracle this season!

"Let's wait and see!"

A bigger miracle may be too difficult for Leicester City.

But this brand new team does give people a bright feeling.

Leicester City fans who watched these four friendlies had a feeling that their team was more grounded.

I don't see any special changes, but I just feel more stable.

Especially when faced with the siege of their opponents, they obviously made the fans more at ease.

This feels really good.

Four friendly matches, four consecutive wins, Leicester City is building a team according to Ranieri's ideas.

And Ranieri also follows his own principles.

As long as the game is won, everyone eats pizza together after the game.

This has become the team's new rule.

Yeah, very warm rules.
