To be the Leicester City of the previous two years is a very high evaluation.

In the 2013-2014 season, Leicester City won the first English Football Championship League in the team's history and entered the English Football Premier League again after 10 years. On May 3, 2016, Leicester City won the 2015-2016 Premier League championship two rounds ahead of schedule.

Before that, Leicester City had never played in the top league in England. Before being promoted to the Premier League, Leicester City had been dormant in the English Championship for five years, and then they created a miracle in one fell swoop.

Just over a year has passed, and the current Wolves have also blown up the yellow youth storm in the Wolves. They swept the whole field and even defeated a strong team like Manchester United, which can't help but remind people of Leicester City.

But Wei Le knows that the Leicester City miracle is called a miracle because it is difficult to replicate. Putting aside other factors, Leicester City's championship score is 81 points, which is only higher than Manchester United's 80 points in 2011. This year, the strong teams in the Premier League are generally weak, and the overall competitiveness is not as good as in previous years.

But Leicester City can leap from a newly promoted team to the league champion, and its own championship qualities are also indispensable.

For example, Vardy, Mahrez, Ranieri, who took over from promoted coach Pearson before the season, arranged tactics suitable for Leicester City, and the support from the management allowed Leicester City to form a championship team, etc. All of these need a foundation.

Now, Wolves win in youth, but the problem is also in youth. The young Wolves need to accumulate experience and grow, and they still have a long way to go.

Some media have compared Wolves with Leicester City. This point was also mentioned by Wei Le before the away game against Barnsley on February 1.

"They are the champions of the Premier League, and we are nothing now." Wei Le said, "Some people compare our two teams together, and they are optimistic about us. But I don't know how much praise and how much flattery there is."

"I can't say how far we are from Leicester City now, and I can't say that the media's behavior of comparing our two teams is completely undesirable."

"But I am sure that we now have a little similarity with the champion team Leicester City. That is-we all have a heart that wants to compete for the championship!" Wei Le's words ignited the emotions of the players. To be honest, who doesn't want to be famous?

"Of course we are different from Leicester City. We don't want to be called "Little So-and-so" or "The Second So-and-so". We will eventually become not the second Leicester City, but the first Wolves!"

The Wolves players wearing light green away jerseys also walked to the court. Next to them was the Barnsley team wearing red home jerseys.

"After the game in Manchester a few days ago, the Wolves played against Barnsley in a few different ways. The goalkeeper is still Martinez, the central defender is a combination of Ruben Dias and Coady, the right back is Doherty, and the left back is Ben Godfrey."

"The differences mainly appear in the frontcourt. First, Jack Pearce replaced De Paul and got the chance to play, while Rodri still got the chance to play after making outstanding contributions to Wolves' promotion in the last game. Standing in front of the two of them is Edwards wearing the captain's armband."

"If Edwards' position is the attacking midfielder, then the Wolves lineup in this game will be a 4-2-3-1 formation. From Bala Miguel Almiron, the striker of Gui, started the game, and Bowen was on the right. The center forward was Jota. "

"In addition to the young player Haaland, we can see that the center forward Ziro, who has been away for a long time, is also sitting on the bench. After more than a month of recovery, Ziro has now resumed training and is ready to play. "

"But after Haaland came to the team, the 16-year-old has already delivered a goal and an assist in the three games he played, and that key assist was the one that helped Jota break the Manchester United goal. "

"Ziro may need to worry that after he returns to the team after his injury, his position has been occupied by the young Haaland, hahahaha!" The commentator of this game said with a smile.

"With a long whistle from the referee, Wolves kicked off first and the game began! Now from the TV screen, attacking from the right to the left, the team wearing light green away jerseys is the visiting Wolves, and the team wearing red tops and white shorts attacking from the other side is Barnsley..."Heginbottom stood in the command area and turned his head to look in the direction of Wei Le. He was actually a little scared facing Wolves in this game. Barnsley, led by Heginbottom, was not a strong team in the league. The media predicted that Barnsley would rank 15th this season. Now Barnsley's performance is slightly higher than the media's prediction, ranking 13th.

But this ranking is really out of reach. It can neither touch the threshold of the promotion play-offs nor see the possibility of relegation.

Wolves' two-round victory over Manchester United did make Heginbottom a little nervous. As the head coach of England, Heginbottom certainly knew how "great" it was to beat Manchester United, especially to win the cup.

But at the same time, the day before the game, after seeing the Wolves' registration list for this game, Heginbottom suddenly found an opportunity. Although the starting lineup of the game was announced one to two hours before the game, as of now, the exhausted De Paul was not even included in the roster, which allowed Heginbottom to read some information from it.

That is, the Wolves are very tired.

The game ended on the evening of January 28, and the Wolves arrived at their base in Wolverhampton after half a day of travel on January 29. On the morning of January 31, they had to go to Barnsley in South Yorkshire.

The game was played in the afternoon of February 1. In total, the Wolves had three days to rest, and basically one and a half days were spent on the road. How could the Wolves not be tired?

In the starting lineup of this game, the semi-main lineup of the Wolves can further confirm Heginbottom's idea, that is, the Wolves are really tired.

The Wolves are very tired, and Heginbottom sees the hope of winning.

"Pull up the rhythm, make them tired, and then defeat them in one fell swoop!" This is what Heginbottom said to his players before the game.

But as Heckingbottom watched the game tick by, the England manager's brow furrowed - why did this not seem right?
