The game was completed on July 23, and all Leicester City players gathered again at noon on July 24.
In the tactical analysis room, the coaching staff carefully analyzed each game.
There are targeted comments for every player, every position, every offense and defense.
Xia Xing listened carefully, with a hint of hum.
For him who has never received top professional youth training, every lesson is a huge gain.
Especially when analyzing himself, Pearson personally drew several offensive routes on his legs and on the electronic screen.
And discussed and analyzed the advantages and disadvantages of several routes.
Xia Xing memorized it carefully and benefited a lot.
Assistant coach Shakespeare noticed that when analyzing that part, Pearson explained it in extra detail and spent more time.
It seems that although he said he didn't like Xia Xing, he was definitely wrong about Xia Xing's training and devoted all his efforts to Xia Xing's training.
And Xia Xing did not shy away from showing his timidity, boldly asked questions, and communicated with the coaching staff.
The one-day course was very fruitful.
After the training, Vardy secretly said to Xia Xing: "Man, before I came here, he always thought that he didn't understand the tactics and vision, but he didn't expect that I didn't understand either, haha."
Xia Xing: "The youth training he received in China is completely different from that there. He is just a young star..."
Vardy: "Don't say that. He has played in low-level leagues for many years. When I was that age, he not only didn't understand tactics, but also had no skills compared to mine. I'm already great, come on."
Vardy patted Xia Xing on the shoulder encouragingly, and Xia Xing felt warm in his heart.
In that team, it is true that he and Vardy did not receive top youth training since childhood.
Vardy is in his 20s and is playing in low-level leagues, which is not even considered professional football.
But even so, he relied on diligence and hard work to get to where he is now step by step.
Last summer, Leicester City spent 1 million euros to sign Vardy, which actually created a miracle.
In that team, Vardy was definitely the main player, scoring 4 goals in a season, which was not very efficient.
But his speed is extremely fast, which can enrich the team's play style, attract defense, and increase tactical significance.
To describe Vardy as a surprise soldier is more appropriate than to describe Xia Xing.
In that team, Xia Xing had a good relationship with everyone.
He has a good relationship with Morgan, which is related to Morgan's captaincy attribute. He takes good care of every newcomer who joins the team.
Having a good relationship with the former Manchester United trio is naturally related to Manchester United's attributes.
As for having a good relationship with Vardy, there is more of a feeling of mutual sympathy.
After training in tactical analysis, Xia Xingcuo's understanding of the game has deepened.
As an attacking midfielder, Wong's vision is even higher.
The forward just needs to pay attention to the passing of his teammates and make timely movements.
But the midfielder must pay close attention to the movements of his teammates and the wrong leg and make predictions.
And those are exactly what Xia Xingmu is missing.
There is still a long way to go to improve vision and running position.
At the physical level, improvement in strength is also very important.
Xia Xing strengthened her body in the gym, but it was not the result of a month.
Now he feels that time is wasted.
Four days after playing York City, Leicester City once again ushered in a new leg.
Their second friendly match came against Monaco in Ligue 2.
Oh no, no Ligue 1.
As the Ligue 2 champion this season, Monaco has been promoted to Ligue 1 and has become one of the five major league teams this season.
For them, the first season back in Ligue 1 is not as simple as avoiding relegation.
Is their goal to win the championship?
That's right, their goal is to win the championship!
Not long after that summer started, they took the lead in spending 100 million.
60 million euros were spent to introduce Atletico Madrid striker Falcao, and 45 million euros were spent to buy Porto genius James Rodriguez.
Just by rejecting those two transactions, he instantly climbed to the top ten transfer list of the summer window.
That's far from over.
The young talents Moutinho and Fabinho were poached from the Portuguese Super League, Carvalho came on a free transfer from Real Madrid, Abidal came on a free transfer from Barcelona, and the 30-year-old French defensive star Tu
Lalan...
Those dazzling names made Monaco's main lineup instantly star-studded.
Not only that, Monaco’s young stars are also extremely talented.
Carrasco and Kurzawa, who were promoted from the youth team this season, have conquered Ligue 2 as a left wing combination and will make their debut in Ligue 1 in the new season.
Facing such a powerful team, even a championship contending team in the five major leagues, it is obvious that Leicester City is under great pressure.
From the first minute of the game, Monaco was firmly in control of the game.
The continuous passing and receiving cooperation in the midfield and frontcourt is dazzling.
With 14 consecutive passes in the opening game, Leicester City couldn't even intercept the Eastern ball!
The ball fell to the east of Ronaldo's foot.
Facing two defensive players in the midfield, Ronaldo made a slight adjustment, suddenly changed direction to pull the ball, and quickly dunked!
Both defenders were fooled!
Dodge the passing angle!
A long diagonal pass straight into the penalty area!
Falcao beat Konchesky, jumped high, and headed the ball into the goal!
The ball hit the net!
1 to 0!
Just two minutes into the game, Monaco scored easily.
In the seventh minute, Monaco's attack from the left was blocked again.
The ball hit Carrasco's feet.
That Belgian genius seems to be dancing, with an excellent combination of speed and technique!
Dribble the ball to open up the wing defense and make a cross!
Rivière from the far end hit the goal with a header!
The ball hit the goalpost hard and bounced into the net!
2 to 0!
The ball went in again!
In less than ten minutes, Monaco scored two goals!
In the face of Monaco's attack, Leicester City's defense seemed to be penetrated.
Pearson looked very unhappy on the sidelines.
"Because it's a friendly match, they can't fight too fiercely, which is Monaco's request before the game. But even if they compete in skills, they won't be that far behind..."
Shakespeare comforted him: "Although they have not been promoted, the team has spent a lot of money and has the strength to compete for the championship. They are not the English Championship team, and their strength is indeed quite different."
"Um……"
Pearson narrowed his eyes and looked at the court.
He wanted to make some adjustments, but there was nothing he could do.
How to adjust?
Some of the best technical players on the team are here now.
But their skills are good, but they are not at the Championship level.
Dell and James dribble well and are sharp on the wing, but their coordination is too poor.
Andy King and Drinkwater have excellent skills outside the team, but they are far behind compared to their opponents.
Not to mention Ronaldo with 45 million euros, even Moutinho with 25 million euros cannot compare.
The difference in strength between the two teams is huge.
Does that team really lack some technical content?
If you think about it, after all, they are just a team in the English Championship. How can they be so technically excellent?
Facing such a powerful leg, some Leicester City players have even lost the courage to win...
