Football: I can see player entries

Chapter 32



In the first game of the new season, Burton Athletic played away against old rival Aston Villa.

As one of the strongest teams in the English Championship, they unexpectedly lost to Burton last season, which led to their failure to impact the Premier League.

Head coach Di Matteo was also dismissed.

This made their players and fans feel angry.

Li Yanqing arranged a 4-2-3-1 lineup, with Bradford and Turner leading the back line, and the back midfielder and full-backs were all young players from the youth training.

Quinn was in the middle, with Miller and Sun Yan on the left and right, and Murphy as the single striker.

Jamie and O'Grady stayed on the bench.

All the young players played, and these guys will be his absolute main force in half a year.

As for Nasri, he has not completed his task yet. It is still quite difficult to rely on his will to fight against the negative effects of the entry.

Li Yanqing has given up this game. It is very difficult to win, so it is better to train directly.

It is a surprise to take away one point.

At the beginning of the game, the Burton team, who was focused on defense, was pressed near the penalty area by the opponent.

But they performed well, and Bradford, as the captain, set a good example.

The defense was quite tough and had resolved several crises.

Turner was also very good at defending in this situation. His height of 1.93 meters was enough to defend the low-altitude area in the penalty area.

But Aston Villa was obviously not so easy to deal with.

In the 40th minute, they broke through the door of the Burton team with a long shot.

After losing a goal, the Burton team seemed to be completely deflated and their state took a sharp turn for the worse.

Murphy was looking for opportunities in front to see if he could catch up.

But as soon as he received the ball, he would be immediately double-teamed by the opponent's two central defenders.

Quinn could not provide enough support in the middle, which made the attack extremely difficult.

After this bad situation lasted for a while, Burton lost two goals in a row in the second half.

In the end, Aston Villa 3-0 successfully avenged Burton.

Li Yanqing was very calm about this and praised the opponent's performance at the post-match press conference.

It is normal to lose the game if you use young players so boldly.

The only surprise should be Sun Yan, who just joined the club. Although he is positioned as a winger, he has good speed and unexpectedly wide coverage in both defense and offense.

If his breakthrough ability can be improved a little bit, he can be assigned to the wing in the next few years. In the second round of the league, Burton Athletic played against Stoke City.

The opponent was a team that was just relegated from the Premier League last season. Although most of the elite players in the team have been poached, their strength should not be underestimated.

This time, Burton held on until the 70th minute before the opponent broke the goal, but unfortunately they couldn't find any good opportunities to counterattack.

The final score was 0-1, and they lost the game again.

In the third round, they faced West Bromwich Albion, which was also relegated from the Premier League.......

It has to be said that Burton's luck was really bad. They encountered several strong teams at the beginning. The only team that they didn't encounter was Swansea City, the last relegated team.

They still lost to their opponent in this game.

In fact, they could have taken away one point. The players had held on until the 80th minute, and it was still a draw at that time.

Jamie, who came on as a substitute, found an opportunity to counterattack. With the cooperation of Murphy and Sun Yan, he almost scored a goal.

Unfortunately, the shot was blocked by the opponent's goalkeeper, which gave the opponent a chance to counterattack.

In the end, they suffered three consecutive defeats at the beginning.

《Burton had a bad start and suffered three consecutive defeats. The young coach's magic is gone.》

《The team is obviously weak, Burton may face relegation crisis again......》

《No one is available! Half of the young players of Burton Athletic's first team are not up to the task! 》

Recent media are mostly filled with this kind of news.

This is a big blow to Burton's players. They sighed one by one, and it was difficult for them to maintain their condition above [average].

However, Li Yanqing is in a good mood recently.

Although they lost all three games, they performed better and better.

In the high-pressure game environment, young players are making rapid progress, and they have basically faced the most difficult opponents.

The most gratifying thing is that Nasri finally succeeded in controlling his weight, and the probability of injury is close to the normal level.

Although it is nearly half a month late, he can play normally in the next game!

It is time to cheer up, the team cannot be depressed at this time!

"Hey guys, cheer up!"

"How old are you? You look like a bunch of listless old men now!"

"I......We lost the game, boss." Quinn, who was more cheerful, answered first.

In the last game, he completed the last shot, but it didn't go in, which led to the team's loss.

This was not the first time, and he always missed opportunities, which made him feel very guilty.

"Well, it's my fault. Li Yanqing shrugged and took the responsibility.

"I should have told you earlier that I gave up these games because of my tactics."

"Look at Chris, he is such an anxious person, but he is still smiling every day after three consecutive losses......."

Chris, who was far away, didn't hear this, otherwise he would have cursed out loud.

He didn't want to laugh, but at Li Yanqing's request, he could only pretend to be happy every day.

It's not easy, okay?

"Chris knows this, so he's not worried, now I tell you"

"So don't worry, I won't punish you to run laps."

After hearing this, the atmosphere became a little more harmonious.

Many players laughed. The head coach said it was their own problem, so what else could they think about?

"Nasri can play now, you guys are working well together"

"There are almost no strong teams left, so who should we be afraid of in the upcoming schedule?"

"You should be happy!"

"In the next game against Queens Park Rangers, are you going to continue to make fun of them?"

The players looked at each other in bewilderment at first, but then they thought that this statement did make sense.

The strong teams were gone, so there was no reason to continue to be timid!

"So tell me! What are we going to do?"

"We have to win! Boss!"The players shouted in unison.

"Win! Score! Score lots of goals!"
