Chapter 136 Are we considered friends?
Everton lost their initial chance to score as Pienaar forced a long-range shot wide.
The referee's whistle sounded and the game was over!
The much-anticipated first game of Leicester City's Premier League ended with the Blue Foxes winning 3-1.
That kind of ending makes Leicester City feel excited in the East!
So cool!
In the center of the pitch, Leicester City players hugged each other excitedly.
"The Premier League is not like this! Hahahaha!"
"That's right! The fifth place in the Premier League was easily defeated by them!"
“Are they the best!”
Did that victory have strategic significance for the Leicester City players?
Before that game, although the Leicester City soldiers were full of confidence, they felt a little uneasy.
After all, they changed leagues and switched to the wrong legs. The huge sense of unfamiliarity put a lot of pressure on them.
But from that day on, their sense of unfamiliarity with the Premier League completely disappeared!
Pearson, who has always been serious, is smiling all over his face, and Shakespeare, who is lively, is even more cheerful.
"They won! It's so cool!"
"He always had the confidence in those lads!"
"Are they the best!"
On the sidelines of the court, the coaching staff embraced and celebrated, enjoying the joy of victory.
At that moment, they were completely at ease.
The Premier League is like this!
Although they have defeated several giant teams in the Premier League during the season, it is not the same as their current victory in the Premier League.
That feeling is even better!
At this time, Xia Xing has become the focus of the audience on the sidelines of the court.
Surrounded by his teammates and arriving in the stands of die-hard fans, Xia Xing enjoyed the roar of cheers and applause.
At that moment, he was so excited!
In his first Premier League game, he dominated the game!
Two passes and one shot lead the team to victory!
That feels great!
Enjoying the cheers of the fans on the sidelines of the court, and receiving compliments from teammates when returning to the locker room, until returning home, I continued to enjoy Aliona's warm embrace and the awkward expression on Li De's face that he had to praise.
Aliona: "Xia! I am so great! I am the hero of Leicester City!"
Xia Xing: "It's not that exaggerated. My teammates also performed superbly."
Li De: "My performance tomorrow was pretty good...Although I scored a goal, there was room for improvement in a few shots. If I had replaced him with Cristiano Ronaldo, he might have scored a hat trick. I'm very proud of it."
Work harder, boy."
Xia Xing: "Shut up, Saonian."
Listening to Aliona's praise and looking at Li De's red eyes, Xia Xing was in a really good mood.
It feels great to win!
The three of them chatted for a while, and then Xia Xing went back to the house to rest.
After all, it was a high-intensity game, so Xia Xing was very tired.
Lying in bed, Xia Xing entered the system again.
The system now has a prompt.
[Task 11: 1. Defeat Everton in the first game of the Premier League; 2. There are goals or assists in this game. 】
【Mission goal accomplished!】
[The mission reward has arrived—Andy Vandermede Card, Grade A!]
That’s right, an A-level card is here!
【(unit hour) van der Meide:0/30.】
It’s time to accumulate training time, let’s start!
Since the system was upgraded to Level B, the opening hours of the "Virtual Arena" have been extended to 5 hours a day.
After being promoted to level A, the "single training" function was added.
Now Xia Xing not only plays in the scrimmage every day outside the arena, but also begins to conduct targeted half-time offensive and defensive drills.
That would work better.
Six days passed quickly, and Van der Meyde's accumulated time was also completed.
【(unit hour) van der Meide:30/30.】
[The time accumulation of A-level Van der Meyde is completed and the host directly absorbs it. Shouldn’t it be placed into the “card pool”? 】
It’s just an A-level card, absorb it directly!
Five minutes later, the system sent a prompt.
[Congratulations to the host, the Vandermede card is completely absorbed! 】
[The host (Xia Xing)’s current physical attribute data is like Dong (single full score is 100 points):]
[Offense: Shooting, 89. Passing, 78+7. Ball control, 83. Vision, 71. Movement, 74+8. Set-piece, 69.]
[Body: Speed, 87. Explosive power, 89. Strength, 85. Bounce, 62. Physical ability, 90. Reaction, 82. ]
[Defense: Marking, 41. Steals, 75. Goalkeeping, 13.]
[Star Skills: 1, Heavy Cannon Blast (S Level). 2, Substitute Surprise Soldier (S Level). 3, King’s Dominance (S Level). 】
[Star Skill: 4, Tactics Master (SS level).]
[Comprehensive capability assessment: Level A.]
[Card pool: 1, Baggio (SS level).]
The 15 skill points that time were all added to passing and running.
Passing, 78+7. Running, 74+8.
As a once-talented Dutch offense, adding those two items makes perfect sense.
Now Xia Xing's passing has increased to 85, his running position has increased to 82, and his comprehensive offensive capabilities continue to improve.
Then refer to the data of shooting, ball control, speed, explosiveness and strength.
Regardless of top league experience and looking at those data alone,
Xia Xing is already heading towards the ranks of the Premier League's top stars!
Bu Nao Xia Xing is not complacent, after all, this is his first Premier League game.
To be successful, you not only need personal talent, but also sufficient competition experience.
Many South American talents don't adapt when they land in Europe. That situation is not common.
Continue to train hard and improve!
On August 16, Leicester City defeated Everton at home.
On August 22, Xia Xing absorbed the VanderMede card.
One day later, he continued to fight with Leicester City.
That time, their target was London's Stamford Bridge Stadium.
Standing on the sidelines of Stamford Bridge, Mourinho warmly welcomed Zai.
What's interesting is that Mourinho just said hello to Pierson with just a few polite words, but he and Xia Xing were obviously much more enthusiastic.
"Xia! I'm good!"
"Coach Mourinho, I'm fine."
"When he met me in the FA Cup last season, he knew that I would come to the Premier League sooner or later. I'm really good."
"Thank you for your attention."
"During that time, he often heard Jorge mention me, and he praised me for being so good."
"He is honored to be Mr. Mendez's client."
"We are all his people, so we are considered our own, haha!"
Mourinho smiled and patted Xia Xing on the shoulder, looking very affectionate.
Shakespeare, who was not far away, poked Pearson: "Did you see that, if you don't keep it all, Xia will be poached by Chelsea one day."
Pearson: "Humph!"
Even if they were poached, what would happen?
I want to know if the salary offered to xia by Chelsea is comparable to that of Leicester City.
And according to Xia Xing's development trajectory, does that kind of feasibility exist?
Originally, Mourinho liked a midfielder with excellent physical fitness, a sharp offensive winger, and a counter-attacking leg with excellent shooting skills.
Now Xia Xing has those three attributes.
It would be an honor for Leicester City to have such a talented player play in Leicester City...
