Chapter 36-Chapter 37 Preparing for the Battle ()

The Leiden Oriental team training base, which started the pre-season training camp, showed vitality. Xiao Ming's meaning is very clear. There is no distinction between a main player and a substitute in Leiden Oriental. Whoever performs well in training and performs well on the court will have more opportunities to play. The main lineup is no longer the world of eleven people. It is time to re-determine the main lineup. Whether it is a newcomer or a previous substitute, there is a chance to become a part of the main lineup.

In the fierce competition, those who can quickly stand out are players who are better than others.

Jin Clarze was unexpectedly the most eye-catching man. Although he was only 1.73 meters tall and looked very thin, he let the big and thick Englishmen know what outstanding skills were.

In Xiao Ming's view, Jin Klaze's way of playing football is very similar to Messi in later generations. He is not tall but has a very low center of gravity. He has excellent ball control ability. The small step forward of the ball makes it difficult for the opponent to cut the ball from his feet. Moreover, he makes movements very fast, it doesn't seem very laborious, but can easily shake the gap of breaking through easily. At the same time, his comprehensiveness is also shocking. Although he is a left-footed player, he is not just used to stand like an ordinary left-footed player. He can only stand on the left and right feet, and can create threats anywhere in the frontcourt. What's more commendable is that he is not the kind of player who is busy dribbling the ball. Although he seems to be only focusing on the ball when dribbling the ball, he can pass the ball to the feet of his teammates in the gap in time.

In the team's training game, as long as Jin Kraze is on the side, he can always create countless opportunities. Under his leadership, relatively speaking, the relatively rough-tech English players can unconsciously play amazing and exciting cooperation with him. Seeing his performance, Xiao Ming really doubts whether history is real. With such an outstanding player, Manchester City has been reduced to two levels in two seasons, directly from the Premier League to the English League Two - was it that other players in Manchester City were so far away from this point?

Putting aside Xiao Ming's suspicion, the pre-season training camp only started for one week, and Jin Kraze's performance conquered all his teammates - the national player is the most international player. His skills and ability are indeed very outstanding. He deserves the highest salary of the team (a weekly salary of 1,500 pounds). He is just amazing!

Another Barak, who was highly anticipated by Xiao Ming, did not show any signs of his performance, but this was also determined by his position. He did more on the court to run a large range of games. The opponent's penalty area to the penalty area is the area where he is active. However, players like this often don't think there is more when he is here, but when he is not there, you will definitely think there is less.

Bolling's defense and quick turn in the penalty area, Carl's ability to attack and defend on the wing, Hackby's quick breakthrough, Holland's conscientious running in the midfield and the long shots he used from time to time showed their extraordinary features. The members of the coaching staff began to admire the boss's vision, and none of the buyers were bad...

What really surprised Xiao Ming was the Ashley Ward, whom he had never heard of, although he was not young, but his experience was quite rich. At the same time, he was 1.9 meters tall, and he was a standard center with a strong impact in the penalty area. His back-to-back ability was also very outstanding. Such a forward may not be able to score many goals, but it is definitely a very useful pawn in the tactical system.

At least at this stage, his role on the court is much greater than that of the young forward McGrady who Xiao Ming had high expectations, and the other forwards are very young. Ward, who is in his age, can bring calmness and experience to the team.

Seeing the players' physical fitness recovering day by day, Xiao Ming was filled with joy. Leiden Oriental will definitely show strong strength in the English League C this season and swept back to the English League Two all the way - the teams relegated from the English League Two should have this confidence, not to mention that Leiden Oriental is so much stronger than last season.

"Oh, aren't the ordinary players who lead a group of great people to play in the amateur leagues too cruel? It seems that you have to focus on the league cup and the FA Cup. If you can win a championship, hehe, these two cup champions are eligible to participate in the League Cup! Will the League Two teams play in the League Cup shock Europe?"

If yy is yy, Xiao Ming still knows that football matches are not just about piled up stars. Although he feels that he can return to the League Two after playing casually, he still thinks that the players should increase their tacit understanding.

In the last week of the pre-season training camp, Xiao Ming began to direct the players to play more training games. He divided the main players in his mind into one side and the remaining substitutes into one side, hoping to improve the tacit understanding between the main players as soon as possible.

The main lineup in his heart is like this, goalkeeper Hilton, right-back Carl, two center backs are Brynn and Outnow, left-back McCassey, midfielders are Wilkinson, Holland, Barack and Jinklaze, among which Wilkinson and Holland are mainly responsible for defense. Barack connects the midfield with a large number of runs. Jinklaze is in the front position and is not limited to the left. He can appear at any position in the front field, which is also in line with Xiao Ming's promise to Jinklaze that he has absolute tactical autonomy on the field. The forward is the most common combination of one high and one fast. Ward is at the front, and Huckby ambushed behind him. Although he seems a little empty on the right, he just leaves Carl with a gap to assist. Moreover, Jinklaze sometimes pulls to the right to play. When defending, Huckby returns to the right midfield to help defend.

This tactic is theoretically very good. It can often win big scores in team training matches. The one who scored the most goals was Jin Klaze, followed by two strikers and Barack. They will be the main offensive points of Leiden East this season.

During this period, Leiden Oriental also played four friendly matches. The targets of the match were basically local semi-amateur teams in London, and each score was a massacre. However, such warm-up matches only allowed the players to familiarize themselves with the pace of the game faster and did not have much significance in tactical training.

As time passes day by day, the first game of Leiden Oriental's new season is getting closer and closer. Xiao Ming has begun to slowly find the feeling of being a coach. After handing over all the training tasks arranged to the members of the coaching team, he mainly observes the players' state during training. What makes him happy is that the players' state seems to be very good and are looking forward to the coming of the game.

The days of preparing for battle will soon pass. On August 17, Leiden East will usher in their first game of the season, which will also be the first game directed by Xiao Ming.

Brisbane Road Stadium on August 17th.

Before the start of the season, Xiao Ming obtained a statistics that more than 2,600 home tickets were sold in the new season, which is a relatively good number for Brisbane Road Stadium, which has a capacity of only more than 9,000 people. The club only has only 3,000 sets. According to the momentum of set ticket sales, this game is the first official game of Leiden Oriental's new season. It seems that the attendance rate of the stadium will not be much lower.

Xiao Ming still underestimated the enthusiasm of Leiden Oriental fans. When he was relegated last season, he was only full in the last home court of Leiden Oriental in the league because of Leiden Oriental's victory for several consecutive games. Moreover, before this season, Leiden Oriental introduced a main player of the Georgian national team. For the British and British C teams, such a move is undoubtedly a big deal. You should know that the British and British C teams have always been poached by other high-level league teams. Even if there have been very outstanding players in their teams, they are basically trained by themselves, rather than introduced from other leagues, let alone international players.

Xiao Ming was shocked when he led the team to warm up on the court.

There is more than an hour before the start of the game, but now the entire stadium is full of people! Except for more than 200 fans of the visiting team, everyone else is Leiden Oriental fans! You should know that the population of the entire Walthamsto area is only more than 200,000 less than 300,000. There are nearly 9,000 fans in the stadium now, which means that one of the nearly 30 people in this area is here to watch the game on site. What is the proportion?

However, Xiao Ming ignored one thing: Walthamsto is not a separate area, but a part of London. Although there are many teams in London, Walthamsto has a Premier League team, West Ham United, and other adjacent areas have no real professional teams. In other words, although Leiden East is only an English-Central team, they are the only professional league team in such a large area as London's Northeast District!

Although most of the fans in England are fans of the teams in the region and even the town, even if they are only one team that is too amateur, it does not prevent them from liking another strong team. For several areas near Walthamsto, including Redbridge, Enfield and Haringay, they support the local team first, and the second one is probably Leiden East!

Leiden Oriental's move to introduce Jin Kraze before the season also aroused the curiosity of fans in other regions. If Leiden Oriental can attract them with its outstanding performance, then they will become loyalists of Leiden Oriental! Just like the thousands of fans who were still relegated last season!

Jack Sawyane still occupied the stands behind the home team's coaching seat. It seemed that the place belonged to them. The players were still warming up, so they were already singing loudly: "We have a chairman, and he still has to be the head coach! If he doesn't do well, we will beat him up!"

The lyrics of four simple lines, they sang back and forth repeatedly. This was after Xiao Ming punched Sawyer in the parking lot last season. In every game, the group of people would sing like this in the stands, making the scene extremely hot.

Xiao Ming laughed and turned around and made a gesture to the group of people: "You won't have a chance!"

Sawyer waved his fists at him: "I hope there will be no chance! I hope my revenge for this punch will never be avenged!"

Looking at his ferocious look, Xiao Ming suddenly felt that this rude guy looked a little cute...

Leiden Oriental's stadium capacity is among the best in the English League Two stadiums. Only a few teams can surpass their home stadium capacity, but their home atmosphere has never been very good. Most of the fans of Leiden Oriental are very gentle, which invisibly makes Leiden Oriental's overall style less bloody. With such a group of irritable fans, it should add a lot of pressure to the visiting team.

Moreover, their crazy performance can slowly infect other fans. Xiao Ming has always believed that a group of crazy fans may infect more crazy and loyal fans, and can also in turn affect the performance of the players, making them more eager to win!

Just like the Houston Rockets of the NBA in the United States, they are not without money or introducing good players, but their performance in the NBA playoffs is not satisfactory. In addition to various factors, there is another factor that the fans of the Toyota Center are very gentle. The fans watching the football there are basically white-collar workers, unlike the blue-collar fans of the Pistons who can turn the Pistons' home court into a terrifying furnace!

Fans just watch the game with a gentle and gentle manner. The players will not feel that they don’t have much passion during the game. When the fans keep yelling in the stands, the players will also be stimulated and burst out with much stronger passion and abilities than usual!

A good home court can become a paradise for the home team and a hell for the visiting team!

Brisbane Road is far from reaching this level now.

"Today is the day when our first official match in the new season begins. From today on, the new Leiden East will take off. We cannot be satisfied with returning to the League Two, we will have higher goals. But no matter how high the goal is, it must be built on a solid foundation, and this season's League C is the foundation for our takeoff."

Xiao Ming said to all the players in the locker room: "You must remember that our goal is far greater than most low-level league teams! So I only have one requirement in this game, that is, win! Winning this game will make a good start for the start of our new season! Do you understand?"

"Understood!"

In the pre-season training camp, Xiao Ming said the most about the future lofty goals, so when Xiao Ming shouted in the locker room this year that we were going to win, no Leiden Oriental player had any objection to this!

We shouldn't be in the English and C! We should at least be in the English and Clause 2. Do we have any other choices when facing a team that is one level lower than ourselves?

You must win! There is no room for no win!

After Xiao Ming waved his hand, all the players rushed out of the locker room.
Chapter completed!
