Chapter 146 Your hot chicken coach only wins!
"Oh, 'cruelty'?"
"You brats, don't underestimate this Coventry team. They are the league champions of English League One!"
"Moreover, looking at the record, they have defeated Liverpool, Arsenal and Tottenham in a row!"
Guardiola shook his head and then said to De Bruyne seriously.
"Isn't it just a dark horse in the FA Cup?"
"A dark horse can always be a dark horse and cannot be a rich man!"
"In a competition like the FA Cup, where the outcome is determined and promotion is determined, it is normal for wealthy teams to be occasionally unseated by teams from lower leagues!"
Facing Guardiola's solemn expression, De Bruyne still answered easily.
Because among the top teams in the Premier League, their ideals are mostly the Premier League championship and the Champions League championship.
As an FA Cup match in England, attention is still too low.
Especially the mentality of the wealthy players, they will not take English League One teams seriously at all.
Coventry is indeed a dark horse in this season's FA Cup.
But everyone thinks that the giant teams in the Premier League don't take this cup seriously. Sometimes if you lose, you just lose. It's not a big deal.
Just like the powerful Real Madrid team lost to the Alcorcon team of the Spanish Third Division in the Copa del Rey in Spain.
However, after losing, will Real Madrid be considered a weak team by everyone?
Will teams such as Barcelona and Atletico Madrid, both in La Liga, "tremble" when facing Alcorcon, a Spanish third team that defeated Real Madrid, in the Copa del Rey?
Therefore, due to the difference in "grade" and "dimension", De Bruyne's idea is "normal".
"No! You can't think like that!"
"Coventry is a team that cannot be underestimated!"
"After watching their game videos, I had an intuition that they defeated the Premier League teams with their own strength!"
"This season, our team's luck is not very good! At present, it seems that we only have the FA Cup as a championship indicator..."
"No matter what the future holds, let's just win this game!"
"I have to win this FA Cup championship!"
Guardiola shook his head, and then answered De Bruyne very solemnly.
And Guardiola deserves to be a world-class coach. After analyzing the Coventry game video, he also came to a very important and correct conclusion.
"Okay, Gua Shuai!"
"You're right, let's talk about the future after the team's game is over!"
"If you want the FA Cup, then brothers will win this honor for you!"
At this time, De Bruyne slowly stood up from the sofa, and then assured Guardiola with a serious face.
"Well!"
"No matter whether we stay or leave in the future, we must first win this championship!"
Guardiola walked up to De Bruyne and patted him hard on the shoulder.
But De Bruyne immediately hugged Guardiola at this time, and then said his very famous words at the Manchester City championship celebration.
"Teacher, thank you!"
"You're a badass coach, you can only win!"
…
After the "private" conversation between Guardiola and De Bruyne, the entire Manchester City team came to life again.
At Guardiola's request, all the players returned to the club for pre-match training the day before the FA Cup match.
Going all out and winning the FA Cup has become the ultimate goal of all Manchester City players at the end of this season.
However, on Coventry's side, after two days of training, the players' mentality gradually adjusted.
Everyone's mood is no longer as nervous as before, but is replaced by the excitement of the upcoming FA Cup final.
As the captain of Coventry City, Shen Xiao was still calmly focusing on the practice of stopping the ball during this period.
After collective training with his teammates, Shen Xiao was also thinking hard about how to start his new football life in another country and another city next season.
In these few days of free time, Shen Xiao is also looking forward to meeting his agent Mendes again as soon as possible.
As for the FA Cup final, Shen Xiao actually didn't really care much.
Because the FA Cup has long been in his "bowl", a "phenomenal football master" with a comprehensive ability value of 120+, Shen Xiaoke always felt that he was really "bullying".
Therefore, this also gave Shen Xiao full courage and confidence.
On the contrary, the La Liga that has not been unlocked by the system has always made Shen Xiao very "heartbroken" and guilty.
Therefore, all this time, Shen Xiao has been thinking about completing the task of stopping the ball as soon as possible.
The long time will eventually pass, so the FA Cup final will be held as scheduled.
It was a Saturday evening, and the sun was setting over the majestic Wembley Stadium in England.
Wembley Stadium is the venue for the England national team and is also the venue for the FA Cup finals all year round.
Although the FA Cup does not attract too much attention, as it is the final, many fans and media still came to Wembley Stadium early.
The two final teams, Coventry and Manchester City, also arrived at the competition venue early to conduct pre-match warm-up exercises.
The players of the two final teams were training very seriously, and the meticulous attitudes of both teams made this game very tense and exciting again.
At one end of Wembley Stadium, Manchester City players were doing stretching exercises seriously.
As the head coach, Guardiola was also standing on the court with the players at this moment, personally explaining to everyone the tactical requirements for the upcoming game.
But Robins wanted to be "lazy" at the moment. Due to the disparity in "status" between the two teams, he pinned his hopes on "God" and Shen Xiao for the outcome of this game.
But seeing the world-famous coach Guardiola personally coming off the field to "mingle" with the players, Robins couldn't sit still at this moment.
I originally thought of continuing to sit on the coaching bench as usual, waiting for Shen Xiao and their "free play".
But looking at the cameras of fans and reporters all over the stadium, Robbins, the head coach of one of the final teams, still took the initiative to come to the stadium.
After actively cheering for the players on the court again, Robbins walked sideways to Shen Xiao's side.
"Shen Xiao, how is the weather today?"
At this time, Robbins smiled and said to Shen Xiao.
"The weather is very nice today!"
"Fortunately, it didn't rain in London today! The last few times I came to London, I didn't really like the rainy and foggy weather here."
Shen Xiao continued to pull his thigh, twisted his neck, and then answered to Robbins.
"Okay...that's good! Haha."
"Shen Xiao, have you eaten today? There's a competition coming soon, so it's not okay if you don't eat enough!"
At this time, Robbins continued to talk incoherently to Shen Xiao.
“I’ve been eating small meals frequently these past two days, and I’m eating pretty well!”
"Coach, if you have anything else, just...just say it!"
Facing Robbins' embarrassed expression, Shen Xiao could only say dumbfounded.
"Okay, Shen Xiao, I'll just say it!"
"After arriving at the final venue, I was a little nervous... Haha, this is my first time at Wembley Stadium for the final!"
"I took a look at the training momentum of the opposite Manchester City team, and it seems that they are also determined to win this game!"
"Shen Xiao, how sure do you think you can win this game?"
At this time, Robbins quickly asked Shen Xiao eagerly.
And Shen Xiao couldn't help but sigh to himself when he looked at head coach Robbins who suddenly felt "unconfident" after arriving at the final venue.
However, after a while, Shen Xiao still said to Robbins with a smile:
"Don't worry, coach!"
"I don't like the number 2..."
