Chapter 65: Damn those guys from the Premier League!

December 14th, the twentieth round of the British Championship.

Leicester City defeated Burnley 3-2.

The game extended their lead to ten points.

As long as nothing happens, they will be stable this season.

After the game, the players thanked the fans on the sidelines of the court, and the atmosphere was very warm.

They enjoyed the applause of the fans, and their ears were filled with the fans chanting their names.

There were also crazy female fans blowing kisses.

The boys were intoxicated.

He returned to the locker room excitedly, and the coaching staff was already back.

In the locker room, Shakespeare had already posted the latest standings on the writing board.

The big "10 points" is quite eye-catching.

"Guys! We're ten points ahead! You guys are awesome!"

"Oh oh oh!"

The Leicester City soldiers cheered and high-fived each other.

Pearson also smiled.

After a moment, Pearson slowly put away his smile. He looked around and looked at the players seriously.

"Guys, I have something to ask you all and want your opinions."

"Um?"

The players were stunned.

The coach, who has always been determined in his work, actually wants to listen to our opinions?

It’s rare.

Pearson looked around, sizing up his beloved generals one by one, and spoke slowly.

“We have a very intensive schedule during this period, with one game played every three days.

“Actually, according to my thoughts at the beginning of the season, I planned to give up the cup competition.

“I even want the youth team players to go up there and have some fun.

“After all, our most important goal is to win the league and reach the Premier League.

“As for the cup, our chances of winning it are too small.

“Anyway, it should be smaller than winning the league.

“If you can’t win the championship, it doesn’t mean much to go further.

“On the contrary, it may affect our league results, and the gains outweigh the losses.

“But now, my thoughts have changed a bit.

“Guys, you’ve had a great season, everyone has been great.

“The new boys who joined the team surprised me.

"To those who contributed to the Super League last season, you have continued your excellent form.

“And now we have a strong team and we are still leading the league points.

"So, I have some ideas -

"Why don't we try hard in the cup?

"Two reasons.

“First, you are outstanding, and I believe you are fully capable and have the opportunity to go further.

“Secondly, if we go further, we will meet more strong Premier League teams and giants.

“The match against them will be quite interesting.

“Having high attention is a great thing.

“This means we will get a lot of ticket revenue and advertising revenue.

“It will be of great help to the team building, and you will also get a lot of bonuses personally.

“Another point is that with attention, each of you will shine brighter in the future.

"If you are interested in a wealthy family, I will definitely not stop you from looking for a better future.

“Of course, I still want to be with you.

“That’s the good thing about the cup.

“At the beginning of the season, I thought we should focus on the league.

"Now I think we can distract ourselves from the cup games.

"However, if we fight on two fronts or three fronts,

"It will definitely be a big challenge for each of you.

“Fitness is a big issue and the pressure of the game is tough.

“Now I want to hear your opinion.

"You want to firmly maintain your position at the top of the league and be focused.

"Or do you want to try to play more cup games and compete with more Premier League opponents we will face next season?"

As soon as Pearson finished speaking, the hot-tempered Konchesky slapped his chest!

"Got to fuck them!"

"Who?"

"Fuck those guys from the Premier League! We will encounter them sooner or later anyway!"

"So, you're interested in the Cup?"

"Must~must~!"

"Okay! Does anyone else have any ideas? Just tell me."

Captain Morgan also stood up: "I don't want to give up the cup either."

Vardy's eyes were firm: "I want to play every game well and take every opponent seriously!"

Schmeichel: "Our top position in the league is very stable and we can spread our energy appropriately. I think it's okay."

Drinkwater: "I also want to go all out to play in the cup competition! Coach, let me ask one more question, if Real Madrid takes a fancy to me, will you be willing to let me go?"

"Ha ha ha ha!"

The locker room burst into laughter.

Pearson was angry: "Don't talk about Real Madrid. Even if Roma wants you, I will let you go!"

James: "This 'even'...will Roma feel offended..."

Most of the players expressed their support for the third-line operation.

Pearson nodded and looked at Xia Xing again.

"Xia, what do you think? You are now a very important offensive piece of the team."

Xia Xing smiled slightly, his face full of confidence.

"Coach, don't worry, my physical fitness is absolutely fine. Even if there are double matches in a week like this, I can definitely handle it!"

"good!"

Pearson slapped him: "Since you all agree, let's take the devil's schedule seriously! Come on, boys!"

After winning against Burnley on December 14, I took a day off and resumed training on December 16.

Training will continue on December 17th.

On December 18, the entire Leicester City team set off.

They went to Manchester.

This time they were not accompanying several former Manchester United players back to reminisce about the past, but to the Blue Space in Manchester.

In today's League Cup quarter-finals, Leicester City will welcome their opponent - Manchester City away!

On the bus to the away game, Drinkwater joked: "We have been fighting with Manchester City recently. A few days ago, we played Burnley, which has several former Manchester City players, and now we are facing the real Manchester City."

Andy King: "How is it, are you confident?"

"Of course I am confident!" James patted his chest, "I will beat them to death!"

De Laet was also eager to fight: "It's been a long time since I played against Manchester City."

Liam Moore: "I'm just asking, did you play against Manchester City when you were in Manchester United?"

Silence.

Awkward silence.

James: "We played against the Manchester City youth team! They are just like that!"

Liam Moore: "Very good, very good."

Schmeichel: "Please don't bring up that..."

Looking at the players chatting in the back row, Shakespeare was in a good mood: "It seems that these guys have a good mentality and are not nervous at all."

Pearson looked at the blue sky outside the window: "It would be best if they can still be so relaxed when they arrive at the Etihad Stadium."

Shakespeare: "No problem, I'm optimistic about them!"

Pearson turned his head and saw Xia Xing, who was two seats away.

Xia Xing looked out the window, as if he was thinking about something.

Maybe, he was thinking about the new task I assigned him?

I hope he can do what I want today...
