Star Card System

Seeing the highly respected Xia Xing on the court, the coaches of the two teams on the sidelines were also very emotional.

At this moment, they were standing together, looking at Xia Xing on the court, chatting in low voices.

"I thought xia was very popular in Leicester City, but I didn't expect it to be so popular."

"That's natural. He has brought a wonderful dream to Leicester City and has already become a hero here."

"really not bad."

"After all, you really don't understand Leicester City."

"How do you say this?"

"You called me specifically last night and asked me to help control the fan base. Don't boo."

"Yeah, I'm not worried that Xia won't be able to bear it. His feelings for you already exceed those of Manchester United."

"That's why I said you don't understand Leicester City. How could we Blue Fox fans boo our heroes?"

"Yes, I saw it today. Leicester City fans are really good fans."

"But having said that, we have to win this game."

"It's a pity that you will lose this game."

"See you on the field later."

Looking at Mourinho's back walking towards the visiting team's coaching bench, Ranieri nodded.

Jose, you are great.

It's his luck to meet a coach like you.

"coach."

"Um?"

Ranieri turned around and saw Xia Xing had arrived in front of him.

Goodbye Xia Xing, everyone is already their own master.

The two looked at each other for a long time, recalling many past events in their minds.

Although we have only been together for one season, our relationship is deep.

The season we worked together to win five crowns was truly unforgettable.

"Xia."

"Um."

Suddenly I didn't know what to say.

Then, give me a hug.

"I wish you all the best at Manchester United."

"thank you."

"Actually, this doesn't make much sense, because you are already living a good life at Manchester United. You have good teammates and a good coach. I am really happy for you."

"Thank you. No matter where I go, I will never forget the days I spent with you and playing football with everyone."

"Go up and warm up. Don't get into the same situation as before the Champions League final. I wish you always stay healthy."

"thank you!"

Xia Xing turned around and ran onto the court!

Next, he will go to war with his old friends!

In this game, Leicester City still uses the traditional 4-4-2 formation.

Goalkeeper Schmeichel,

Four defenders: Fox, Morgan, Huth, Simpson,

The four midfielders include Albrighton, Drinkwater, Mendy and Mahrez.

Double forward Slimani and Vardy,

Sitting on the bench were Andy King, Gray, Schlupp, Shinji Okazaki, De Laet, James and other players.

Looking at the opposing starting lineup, Xia Xing knew most of them.

There are only a few new signings.

Forward Slimani was transferred from Sporting CP this season with a transfer fee of 31 million euros, which is expensive. He is a typical powerful forward, used to fill the vacancy after Van Persie left the team.

Midfielder Mendy was transferred from French Ligue 1 Nice this summer with a transfer fee of 15.5 million euros. Leicester City is looking forward to digging out another Kante-type iron waist.

The other players are all Xia Xing's old partners.

However, it is worth mentioning that the previous substitute players Andy King, James and other players did not get the main opportunity because of the departure of Xia Xing, Kanter and others.

Their strength is at the top of the English Championship, but in the Premier League it is only at the level of substitute rotation.

Therefore, today I can only watch the game from the bench.

After the game started, both Leicester City and Manchester United were very conservative and did not start the attack.

On Manchester United's side, it's because Mourinho has always been defensive. Except for special circumstances, he always defends first and then attacks.

And so does Leicester City.

Last season, Leicester City occasionally attacked, but this season they had a slow start and their momentum was affected. They have long lost the dominance of the defending champion. They are worried about conceding goals to any team they encounter, so they must defend for the sake of stability.

Therefore, in the first ten minutes, both sides played very conservatively.

But soon, Leicester City couldn't hold it any longer.

Leicester City controlled the ball in the backcourt and handed the ball to Drinkwater.

Brother Drinking Water caught the ball, faced Schneiderlin's overhand attack, and decisively pulled the ball horizontally to get rid of it!

He opened up space and passed the ball straight!

The ball goes straight to the front line!

Vardy sprinted quickly and shot low in the penalty area!

De Gea quickly fell to the ground to save, and the ball was blocked!

Although this attack did not result in a goal, it received applause from the King Power Stadium.

This is what Leicester City looks like!

With the first attack, Leicester City's attacks followed.

After Xia Xing left the team, Albrighton took on the offensive and defensive tasks on the left side.

The responsibility of organizing the team's offense was given to Drinkwater.

New aid Mendy is responsible for the defense and seems to be doing a good job so far in this game.

Drinkwater's offensive and defensive organization is also very good.

Xia Xing, who was not far away, nodded secretly.

This friend of mine is really good.

In just a few months, it was much better than last season.

In fact, this is also driven by huge pressure.

Without Xia Xing, Drinkwater has become the team's new playmaker.

But he knew very well that he was far behind Xia Xing, so he could only prove himself with diligence and hard work and do more for the team.

This was true for both offense and defense.

So at the beginning of the game, Drinkwater became the most dazzling player on the field.

His active running and his integrated offense and defense made Leicester City's front and back courts very well connected.

Even Mourinho on the sidelines couldn't help but admire: "Drinkwater is really good. With his current strength, he can definitely play in the rotation of the giants. If the tactics are right, he can even become the main force."

Perrin on the side asked curiously: "His price is not high, otherwise we Manchester United will buy him back? Anyway, he used to be a Manchester United player."

Mourinho shook his head: "I like him very much. If he can join Manchester United, it's not bad, but I won't bid."

Perrin was stunned: "Why? You think he is good and not expensive, but you don't buy him?"

Mourinho looked at Drinkwater on the field with a serious expression, as if he was his own player.

"His strength is first-class, but definitely not top-level. Compared with Xia and Pogba, he has no advantage.

"Even compared with Herrera and Fellaini, he is not stronger, but has distinct characteristics.

"Such a player in Manchester United probably won't play too many games, it's better for him to stay in Leicester City as a tactical core.

"After all, he is 26 years old this year, not young, and doesn't have that much time to kill. He needs to be tempered by the game.

"If I were his agent, I would even suggest that he go to teams like Arsenal and Tottenham,

"Well, it's the second echelon,

"Don't go to the first echelon of the championship, he has too few opportunities,

"If he has to go to the top giants, it may be a disaster for him..."
