Just after the fourth round of the League Cup, Dagenham ushered in the FA Cup.
The FA Cup is the oldest football tournament in the world. Before the English Professional League came out, the FA Cup already existed in British football. Therefore, the FA Cup has always had a high status in England.
Even for a long time, the FA Cup's status in British football was higher than that of England's top league.
That is because the FA Cup is too strong, so the Football League launched the League Cup to compete with the FA Cup. Unfortunately, it did not shake the status of the FA Cup at all.
Many clubs in England attach great importance to the FA Cup.
English fans like this ancient competition very much. Because there are frequent upsets in this event, there is even a statistics showing that there will be a big upset in the FA Cup almost every year. Therefore, English fans like the FA Cup.
Different from the League Cup schedule, the FA Cup has a total of six rounds before the semi-finals. And except for the semi-finals, which are two rounds, the other games in the FA Cup are decided by a single game.
On December 3, the first round of the FA Cup began.
Dagenham were drawn against League Two side Crewe.
Dagenham's performance in recent times has been really good. Especially in the League Cup, they defeated strong opponents and even eliminated Manchester United. This has greatly increased the enthusiasm of Dagenham fans. Dagenham
There is absolutely no shortage of fans in Muhammed.
And the full name of Dagenham is Dagenham and Redbridge Club.
Dagenham has a population of nearly 200,000, and Redbridge has a population of more than 250,000. There are no clubs that can take advantage of these two places. Dagenham and Redbridge
Bridge Club is the only club in the Professional League.
Therefore, as Dagenham's performance improves, there are more and more fans.
For the first round match of the FA Cup, the Victoria Road stadium was packed to capacity.
"We are from the Anglo-African Union, but we are fearless!"
Since the performance in the English League Three, fans have begun to rewrite a lyric.
"Good job, young man."
When the fifty-five-year-old Dario Gradi shook hands with Su Yun, he patted Su Yun on the shoulder like an elder.
"Thanks, Coach Grady."
Su Yun answered very respectfully.
After Su Yun arrived in England, there were only a few people he admired. The one he admired the most was undoubtedly Dario Gradi. Busby, the accomplished godfather of Manchester United; Liverpool legends Shankly and Paisley; Nottingham Forest's Gram
Lauf and these people are different.
The above-mentioned people are all famous names in English football.
They are even the most famous coaches throughout Europe. Their coaching careers are wonderful and glorious. All fans know their great deeds, and their achievements on the court will be passed down from generation to generation.
The Dario Grady in front of him is much unknown compared to them. But he is the coach Su Yun admires the most.
Dario Gradi is an Italian, fifty-five years old this year. In 1983, thirteen years ago, he became the head coach of Crewe Club. During these thirteen years, Dario Gradi was diligent and frugal in managing his family.
Crewe has always had very little investment.
It was all due to Dario Gradi's careful planning that they went from being a team in the fourth tier to the current third tier. Moreover, Crewe have always been a strong team in the English Second Division in the past few seasons, winning several times.
It's almost time to upgrade.
Unfortunately, luck is always bad.
Last season's promotion play-offs were tied 1-1, but they were eliminated because of away goals. Last season, they were eliminated because they were only one step away.
However, Crewe's current results are very stable.
You can participate in the promotion play-offs every season.
Crewe's ability to participate in the English League Two play-offs with almost zero investment is all due to the management of Dario Gradi.
For Dario Gradi, almost all teams in the lower leagues admire him very much.
Many English clubs actually hope to invite Dario Gradi. Unfortunately, he has stayed at Crewe for thirteen years. Crewe even said that no matter what the performance of Crewe, Dario O'Grady won't leave get out of class.
Unless one day Dario Gradi doesn't want to continue working.
Su Yun, such an old coach, respects him no matter what.
"Jack Williams is good."
Another skill of Dario Grady is that he is very good at cultivating young players. Crewe has been able to rank in the upper reaches of English League Two with little investment, and it is inseparable from Dario Grady's keen eye.
"Danny Murphy is pretty good too."
Su Yun also replied.
This 19-year-old young man is a star player in the English League Two. Many big clubs are eyeing him.
"Hahaha!"
Dario Grady laughed heartily.
Glady is also very proud of his beloved disciple Danny Murphy. However, he knows that it is already difficult for Danny Murphy to stay in the Crewe team.
…………
Respect, respect, but Su Yun will not be polite at all on the court.
Although Crewe is a strong team in the English League Two, Su Yun is not afraid at all. Su Yun relies on his strong midfielder strength. Kewell, Lampard, Williams, Kilbani and so on
A midfielder with several players would definitely be the most powerful midfielder in English League Two.
Even if we get to the English League One, we can still cope with it for a while.
So it's not that Su Yun underestimated Crewe, but he thought that Crewe would definitely not be able to beat Dagenham in the midfield duel.
But when the game started, Su Yun was surprised.
Is this a League Two club?
Their midfielders are even stronger than the Sunderland that Su Yun played against!
Sunderland is a Premier League team. Although it is now a team in the Premier League relegation zone, it is still a Premier League team. Although it is about to be relegated, it was a strong team in League One before. But with Crewe
Still not as good compared to the field.
Of course, most of the Sunderland midfielders who played Dagenham at that time were substitute players.
But the Premier League substitutes are completely inferior to Crewe midfielders. This is amazing.
Needless to say, Danny Murphy is a star in League Two. The midfielder Neil Lennon next to him is also very strong. He has already exceeded 160. This is a player with Premier League strength.
Of course, just the two of them, Su Yun, wouldn't be shocked.
Because after the game started, there was one person who was better than the two of them.
Robbie Savage.
The 22-year-old defended fiercely, making Lampard useless in front.
This player's strength also exceeds 160, even reaching 166.
The Crewe midfielder is too fucking perverted.
No wonder Crewe have performed so well in the past few seasons. Fortunately, Crewe's current defense and forward lines are scum, which is completely the strength of a League Two team. Otherwise, this strength would definitely be placed on a League Two team.
It sweeps everything.
Even if this midfielder was placed in the English League One, he would be ranked in the middle.
Because there are too many games recently.
So I just took a brief look at Crewe's situation and didn't have time to analyze the opponent in detail. Su Yun had some contempt for Crewe in his heart. It's just a strong team in the English League Two. I have defeated Manchester United.
You are no problem.
Unexpectedly, I was surprised by their midfield strength at the beginning of the game.
"Robbie Savage?" Su Yun said the name repeatedly. "Eddie, he really shouldn't stay in the English League Two. If I coach the English League One or the Premier League in the future, I will definitely take him with me."
Su Yun really sighed.
What a good player. It would be great if I had such a good player.
"Su, do you know who he is?"
Chavez asked with a smile.
"Who? Robbie Savage?"
Chavez nodded. "He has a great background. Robbie Savage is a member of Manchester United's 1992 generation."
"oh?"
Su Yun opened his mouth wide.
Manchester United's 1992 generation are famous. The Neville brothers, Butt, Scholes, Giggs, and Beckham can be said to be popular in the entire British football world. Even Gillespie, who did not get along as well as he did, is now a member of Newcastle.
The main player.
"Robbie Savage came from Manchester United's youth academy?"
Su Yun really didn't expect this.
Chavez nodded.
"He was abandoned by Ferguson due to hernia surgery. Later, coach Grady convinced him, so he came to Crewe Club."
Su Yun didn't know whether he should laugh or cry.
Robbie Savage is such a good player. Look at how well he is marking Lampard on the court now. Look at his next move. It's scary to look at him. He is a tough midfielder.
Ferguson is so luxurious.
Such a good player just throws it away.
If Su Yun had such a good player, he might be so happy that he couldn't sleep at night.
A wealthy family is indeed a wealthy family.
Grandma is a bear!
The day I become the head coach of a wealthy club, I will buy three fucking Keanes. One will play, one will sit on the bench, and the other will watch the game from the stands. I envy you so much.
