I build a giant in the Premier League

Chapter 290 The strongest center forward! Godly soldiers descend from the sky! Guards with swords! A new era of the Premier League with a star-studded cast! [Subscribe]

knock knock knock.

Harry Kane knocked on the door of head coach Yang Cheng's office at Brent Training Center.

Soon, the head coach's response came from inside.

"Please come in."

Harry Kane pushed the door open a little and stuck his head in. He just happened to make eye contact with the head coach who was sitting behind the desk in front of the computer monitor and immediately grinned.

"Boss, are you looking for me?"

Harry Kane walked into the door with a guilty conscience, turned around and closed the door.

Yang Cheng did not answer, but pointed to the chair opposite his desk and motioned him to sit down.

"I just received a call from the marketing department, saying that your brother has canceled a business event tomorrow?"

Harry Kane had expected this to happen because his brother told him about it last night.

"Boss, I need to concentrate on preparing for the game the day after tomorrow." Harry Kane was a little timid.

Yang Cheng looked up in surprise, glanced at Harry Kane, and immediately snorted and laughed, "Do you think you can play?"

Harry Kane was suddenly speechless and scratched his head in embarrassment.

Who said no?
Before the head coach announces the starting lineup, who can say for sure that they will be able to play?

But he felt that he could do it.

"Boss, wasn't I just guessing?" Harry Kane said with a wry smile.

Yang Cheng still smiled slightly, but stopped talking.

"In the last game, Oliver played the whole game. Shouldn't I play in the next game?" Harry Kane muttered.

After hearing this, Yang Cheng suddenly wanted to laugh.

But actually, he was quite happy in his heart.

At the very least, this guy didn't get carried away and knew how to restrain himself in business activities.

In contrast, many players lack this awareness.

Some even require Yang Cheng to intervene and coordinate to reduce the time and frequency of participating in commercial activities and advertisements.

On the contrary, the marketing department complained about Harry Kane promoting an event.

And it is an advertisement for a well-known British company.

They specifically asked Harry Kane to star in the commercial.

"It doesn't take much time to shoot a commercial. You can do it after training. I have already agreed for you. The club will have a special car to pick you up tomorrow at noon." Yang Cheng reminded.

"People think highly of you, you can't push them away!"

Harry Kane wanted to say something, but when he heard Yang Cheng's last sentence, he swallowed it all back.

"I'm not saying that you did something wrong, but you know the current situation of professional football. Football, media and business have become very closely integrated. You have to try to learn to accept it," Yang Cheng advised.

Harry Kane nodded, "I understand, I will tell my brother."

Bayswater Chinese do not actually have many commercial activities, and they will try to arrange them at times that will not affect the players' games and training, and can bring extra income to the players, so the players are relatively acceptable.

For example, this time Harry Kane took over an oatmeal brand.

If it were any other player, he would have rushed over long ago.

"I learned that they are just taking some photos. The marketing department will coordinate with you in advance. From the time you leave to the time you return, it will probably take less than three hours. It's very fast."

Shooting an advertisement can bring in an income of one million pounds a year.

Although he has to share the salary equally with the club, it is still very good for Harry Kane, whose weekly salary is not high.

This is also a strategy used by the Chinese in Bayswater now.

The weekly salary is not high, but the players' income can be increased through commercial activities and advertising endorsements.

Therefore, the income of many players in the team is actually not low.

Like Aaron Ramsey, his business income is actually very high because he is handsome and his jerseys sell well.

After all, this is an era where appearance matters!

Harry Kane is a local player and is particularly popular with advertisers.

He is not handsome, but he plays football well, and everyone knows that he is a local rookie promoted by the Chinese in Bayswater, chosen by Yang Cheng, and the future star player written into the team song.

This meant that Harry Kane was immediately favored by numerous advertisements and commercial activities as soon as he debuted.

After all, he is cheap now.

When you become really famous in the future, the price will be far more than it is now.

Omar Berrada also saw the strength of this brand and felt that long-term cooperation was possible, so he sent a message and called Yang Cheng, hoping to persuade Harry Kane to take on this event.

It would be a pity to miss it!

Moreover, if Harry Kane doesn't answer, the other party is likely to go to Rooney of Manchester United.

"Boss, what do you think of my performance against Aston Villa?"

After finishing the conversation, Harry Kane had no intention of getting up and leaving, but instead changed the topic to a recent question he had.

"Not bad, what's the matter?"

"I looked at the post-match report given to me by the technical analysis team, and studied the game videos and highlights. I was just thinking, is it okay to play like this?"

“I’ve read that report, too.”

As soon as Yang Cheng said this, Harry Kane's eyes lit up.

The English were secretly delighted: It turns out that the boss still values ​​me very much.

You are so busy every day and have so many things to do, but you still find time to read my post-match analysis report. Isn't this respect for me?
"Tell me what you think first." Yang Cheng put down the work at hand and looked directly at Harry Kane.

He obviously took this matter more seriously than the previous business activity.

"To be honest, sir, I know my own problems. For example, my physical condition is not top-notch. So, in terms of physical confrontation, I am not as good as Carroll, or even Rooney back then."

One of the important reasons why Carroll was able to win the header was that his physical confrontation was really amazing.

A very important reason why Rooney was chosen by Ferguson and so many professionals as a future British star as soon as he made his debut was his outstanding physical talent.

Harry Kane is aware of this.

"I have talked to Brian and Sader before. The modern football requires center forwards to not only score goals but also have tactical value in tough battles."

Yang Cheng nodded slightly, without saying anything, and let him continue.

"From a technical point of view, whether it is stopping the ball, using my left or right foot, or a full set of back-to-the-basket stops and turns, I have no problem with it, and I have mastered it all."

Harry Kane has been in the Bayswater Chinese Youth Training Camp for 10 years and is considered a direct descendant of the youth training camp.

His skills are definitely better than Yang Cheng's in his previous life.

But some things cannot be changed.

For example, his physical talents.

Some people are born with strong backs and broad shoulders, while others are born with skinny bodies.

Is there any way to change this?
For example, Walcott, no matter how much he practices, he can never become Gareth Bale.

Right?

Harry Kane is certainly not that bad, it's just that he is young now.

"In the youth team, I have always played as an all-around center forward, but after entering the Premier League, my physical confrontation has always been at a disadvantage, so many times, I can only choose to play away from the opponent's defenders."

This isn't just an option for Harry Kane.

For example, a month ago, in the third round of the league, when playing against Fulham at home, Yang Cheng warned Harry Kane during the halftime break that he was neither Lewandowski nor Giroud.

It's because Harry Kane always wanted to move himself towards an all-around center forward in the first half.

But he was at a disadvantage in physical confrontation and could not hold the ball or grab the ball.

So, the overall effect is very poor.

After the changes in the second half, things got much better.

In the fourth round after two weeks of national team training, Harry Kane played away against Aston Villa and provided two assists, both of which were with the same style of play.

This can play to his strengths.

But we must admit that from the perspective of the tactical value of the center, this way of playing is not feasible and we cannot fight tough battles!
Why is Drogba still recognized by countless fans even though he doesn't score many goals?
There are also powerful center forwards such as Adriano and Vieri. Why do they shock the fans so much?

Is it that their data is really amazing?

No!

It's because they left a deep impression on the fans in the games, especially in some tough matches with high intensity.

Drogba's tactical value lies in the fact that he can hold up any defensive line and still complete a turn.

Why is Giroud's tactical value higher than Harry Kane now?
Kane actually knows in his heart that his playing order is below Giroud, so he is anxious to improve.

To put it bluntly, he couldn't handle the defense.

Coming back to the point, when the players on the front line cannot hold up against the back line, even a team as strong as Barcelona will still not be able to win.

After Xavi, Puyol and others have grown old, when will Barcelona reach its peak again?
After Suarez joined, right?
The role of the Uruguayan striker lies in his strong confrontation ability.

Now in Manchester City, Aguero's physical confrontation ability is also not bad.

Without a striker with excellent confrontational ability, a team as strong as Barcelona will have to play very awkwardly and uncomfortably.

This is the tactical value of the center!
Harry Kane himself is well aware of this.

"Boss, as you can see, I am 1 meters tall, a bit oversized, with a long waist and short legs, and not flexible enough. I am just running around the court, catching and passing the ball."

"But if the opponent specifically marks me, it will be difficult for me to play like this."

Harry Kane is not a technically excellent center forward like Ibrahimovic or Dzeko.

Of course Yang Cheng knew it too.

"So, you still need to continue to strengthen your physical body and strength." Yang Cheng gave specific directions.

"But they must have told you that strengthening your body is a process and we don't want you to have any major injuries during this period of rapid growth."

It may even leave hidden dangers!
Harry Kane also knows that the club has always been very cautious in this regard and has a good reputation for protecting its players.

"We are now very strong in the midfield and backcourt, and the two wingers are the best in the world. You have no problem stopping the ball, passing the ball and shooting, and you have plenty of energy."

"So, you should make good use of your advantage in this area, create opportunities for yourself and the team through your best running, and also bring out your comprehensive scoring ability."

"Give yourself a little more time. Once your physical resistance and strength improve, you will be even stronger and more threatening than you are now!"

After all, this is a process of steady improvement, one step at a time, each year.

As Harry Kane himself said just now, he has a long waist and short legs, which shows that he really does not have top physical talent.

Even at the peak of his powers, no matter how hard he trained, it was difficult for him to overturn the entire defense line of the opponent like Drogba, Giroud and Carroll.

Therefore, the route planned for him by the Chinese in Bayswater is exactly the most suitable for him.

And the career in the future will be very long.

Of course, Yang Cheng would not want Harry Kane to retreat to the midfield to get the ball and organize the pass like he did in his previous life at Tottenham.

That's because Tottenham Hotspur's midfield is not strong enough, so Kane needs to do this.

The price is that Harry Kane needs to greatly weaken his offensive threat in the frontcourt.

This is totally unnecessary for Yang Cheng and the Chinese in Bayswater.

Yang Cheng's team building strategy has always attached great importance to the midfield, and he even wants to suppress the opponent through the midfield advantage.

In this case, Harry Kane's range of activities is more in the midfield and frontcourt.

Yang Cheng has every reason to believe that in this tactical environment, with the support of his teammates, Kane will become even stronger!

Even the most powerful center!
"It's still what I told you before. You are going to play as a center for Bayswater Chinese for more than 20 years. Now is just the beginning, so don't be anxious at any time. Be patient and have confidence in yourself and us!"

Harry Kane understood what the coach meant.

"I know, boss!"

Yang Cheng's words further strengthened his thinking.

……

October 9th, afternoon, Prudential Arena, London.

In the 5th round of the Premier League, Bayswater Chinese will face Hull City at home.

Hull City has 4 win, 1 draw and 1 losses in the first 2 rounds so far this season.

The two games they lost were both 0-2, to Chelsea and Manchester City respectively.

Therefore, before the match against Bayswater Chinese, Hull City head coach Steve Bruce was very cautious and believed that the team's goal was a draw away from home.

But when the game really started, Hull City showed its aggressive momentum from the start.

Because they played in the Champions League in the middle of the week, Bayswater Chinese adopted a strategy of major rotations in this game.

This is also the experience accumulated by Yang Cheng and the coaching team over the past few years.

Through long-term rotation, players can avoid excessive fatigue and develop the habit and rhythm of rotation. After Christmas and the winter break, the team's overall performance will be more stable.

That's what Manchester United has always done.

On the contrary, those teams that are not good at rotation often suffer during Christmas and the winter break.

After the opening, Hull City seemed to be in a position to take the initiative and seize the opportunity to gain the upper hand.

By the way, former Bayswater Chinese midfielder, Huddlestone, who has now transferred from Tottenham to Hull City, also started in this game.

Hull City's starting double defensive midfielders in this game were Huddlestone and Livermore.

These were Tottenham's main double defensive midfielders two years ago.

This also indirectly shows the strength of the current Premier League teams.

Hull City, ranked 16th and aiming to avoid relegation, has an overall strength similar to that of Tottenham Hotspur two years ago.

The game was not easy.

Especially after being pressed and oppressed by Hull City at the beginning, the Chinese players in Bayswater played a bit chaotically.

But in the 16th minute, Harry Kane retreated, pulled out the defensive player, and formed a two-pass wall pass with Pogba who was advancing.

The England striker sent a ball behind him with his right foot, Pogba drove straight into the penalty area and shot into the goal.

1 is better than 0!

In the 30th minute, Sterling broke through on the left and passed the ball to the back post. Harry Kane followed up and shot the ball into the goal from close range.

2 is better than 0!

In the 37th minute, Harry Kane retreated to receive the ball, turned around and made a straight pass. Walcott cut in behind him, received the ball and had a one-on-one opportunity to score again.

3 is better than 0!

Two passes and one shot!
Harry Kane, who just turned 20, performed very well in the first half and won warm applause and cheers from the 9 fans at the Prudential Stadium.

After the change of sides in the second half, the situation changed slightly.

In the 53rd minute, with an assist from Livermore, Hull City striker Sabo successfully made an offside move and scored against the Bayswater Chinese.

But in the 88th minute, Aaron Ramsey shot a pass from Luke Shaw, which hit the defender and deflected. Sterling seized the opportunity cleverly and shot into the goal in front of the goal.

4 is better than 1!

Bayswater Chinese beat Hull City 4-1 at home!
……

After the game, Harry Kane, who was selected as the best player of the game, received unanimous praise from many British media.

For this 20-year-old young player, his performance this season is truly remarkable.

But what’s interesting is that he is praised more for his assists rather than his goals.

This is indeed quite interesting.

So far, Harry Kane has started 3 games in the Premier League, as a result, he has contributed 6 assists, making him the player with the most assists in the Premier League so far this season.

Attention, this includes all Premier League players!

This is very outrageous!
Isn't he a 1-meter-tall center forward?
How come he is better at assists?
Yang Cheng responded to this situation at the post-match press conference.

Yang Cheng said that Harry Kane is a very smart player and he is still trying to figure out his own way of playing.

"In the current Bayswater Chinese, what he needs to do first is to help the team perform better, not score goals!"

But Yang Cheng also said that Harry Kane has the potential to become a top center forward.

“But this will take some time!”

Regarding Yang Cheng's statement, and considering Harry Kane is a local player, the outside media's interpretation is more thorough.

No one defines Harry Kane as a passer, but rather believes that the smart Englishman’s first priority now is to gain a foothold in the team.

“It turns out that he did an excellent job!”

Alan Shearer commented on Harry Kane on a TV show.

"He has excellent skills, but his speed is not fast enough and his physical confrontation is not strong enough, which makes him unable to become a scoring center who can attack the city and capture the castle. So he chooses to stretch the defense and create opportunities through active running and passing."

Alan Shearer believes that Lewandowski's departure will have a huge impact on Bayswater Chinese's entire offensive tactics.

"Yang Cheng has said more than once that neither Giroud nor Harry Kane can replace Lewandowski."

"But there is never just one tactic in football."

“There are many different ways to achieve the same goal.”

"It's like Harry Kane is now, he doesn't score enough goals, but he can assist. Through his passing and movement, his teammates around him get more scoring opportunities. This is also a center forward's way of playing."

Alan Shearer once again stated that Harry Kane is a very smart player.

"I have met him several times. He is really smart and very organized. I believe that with his character and the importance that the Chinese people in Bayswater attach to him, he must have a very clear career plan."

Alan Shearer mentioned that there is never a shortage of top strikers with strong assist capabilities in the Premier League.

For example, Shelingham, Henry, Drogba or Rooney.

Alan Shearer believes Harry Kane is more like a combination of himself and Shelingham.

"I've seen him play in the youth team. He has a high goal efficiency, strong scoring ability and a very comprehensive shooting skill."

"What he needs to do now is to adapt to the intensity and pace of the Premier League as quickly as possible."

"Maybe it would be a good idea for him to try to become the assist king in the Premier League first!"

Alan Shearer was joking with this last sentence.

But this also reflects his appreciation and expectations for this younger generation.

He even made no secret of the fact that Harry Kane would be England's forward hope for the next 10 years.

Interestingly, the future forwards of England that he values ​​most are all Chinese players in Bayswater.

Harry Kane, Sterling and Walcott, this is what Alan Shearer believes will be England's most attacking forward combination in the future.

……

When Bayswater Chinese beat Hull City, the results of other matches in the fifth round of the Premier League were also announced one after another.

Liverpool beat Southampton 1-0 at home thanks to Skrtel's goal.

Chelsea beat Fulham 2-0 at home thanks to goals from Oscar and Mikel.

Mourinho's team also made rotations in this game.

Arsenal beat Stoke City 3-1 at home.

In this round, the most anticipated Manchester derby was held at the Etihad Stadium.

Guardiola's Manchester City hosts Manchester United.

As a result, the two Manchester giants played a wonderful offensive battle.

Just 16 minutes into the game, Aguero received an assist from Leighton Baines and scored the first goal for Manchester City.

But then, Manchester United scored two goals in a row.

First, Stroman assisted Robben to score, and then Juan Mata assisted Cavani to score another goal.

The Red Devils successfully reversed the score. At this point in the game, Manchester United actually had the advantage.

But in the 47th minute of the first half stoppage time, Messi retreated to receive a pass from Yaya Toure and suddenly started dribbling the ball. Despite being pulled and dragged by Manchester United's midfielders and backcourt players, he did not stop, but dribbled the ball to the front of the penalty area and made a straight pass.

Aguero scored again in the penalty area.

2 is better than 2!

In the second half, just 2 minutes later, Messi dribbled the ball and passed it to Yaya Toure in the penalty area. The Ivorian stopped the ball and continued to score the third goal.

3 is better than 2!

By this moment, Manchester City's momentum had completely reversed.

But just 3 minutes later, Manchester United equalized the score again.

The goal scorer this time was Rooney.

Afterwards, both teams made substitutions one after another, and the game remained relatively stalemate.

Manchester City controlled the ball and Manchester United responded with defensive counterattacks.

It was not until the 87th minute that Navas, who came on as a substitute, dribbled the ball on the right and made a cross.

After receiving the ball in the middle, Messi dribbled past Carrick and De Rossi in succession, and shot with his left foot, once again penetrating De Gea's goal.

The football went straight into the lower left corner of the goal!
4 is better than 3!

In the end, Blue Moon won a narrow victory at home!
Media and fans around the world praised this wonderful goal battle.

7 goals, all beautiful!

Messi was named the best player of the match.

2 assists, 1 goal, all of which were very crucial contributions.

After the game, almost everyone, including Guardiola, believed that Messi had basically integrated into the Premier League and had returned to his best form.

The British media were generally excited.

After Messi integrated into the Premier League, his driving effect on the entire league is very obvious.

There are even many media calling for Manchester United to buy Ronaldo back from Real Madrid.

By then, the entire Premier League will reach a new level.

Bayswater Chinese have Gareth Bale, Manchester City has Messi, if Manchester United can really buy back Ronaldo, the entire Premier League will be a three-way competition!
But the Liverpool Echo believes that the Premier League has now entered a new era of fragmentation.

Although Manchester United does not have Ronaldo, they have Rooney and Cavani.

Liverpool has Suarez and Sturridge, Arsenal has Benzema and Van Persie, Chelsea has Falcao and Eto'o.

Bayswater Chinese have Gareth Bale and Walcott, while Manchester City have Messi and Aguero.

In today's Premier League, the Big 6 teams all have their own star players, and they are all extremely strong.

This has given the Premier League an unprecedented, star-studded scene.

After 5 rounds of games, Arsenal ranks first in the Premier League with 13 points.

The Gunners' biggest feature this season is stability.

Benzema and Van Persie both provided the team with very stable goal efficiency.

The midfield also operates very smoothly.

Liverpool also got 13 points, but all were 1-0, so they were at a disadvantage in terms of goal difference.

This is also related to Suarez's absence.

Bayswater Chinese came in third with 12 points.

After that are Manchester City and Chelsea, both with 10 points.

Manchester United currently has only 7 points.

But Ferguson's team has played three strong matches in the first five league rounds.

The endings are all quite sad.

After being tied 0-0 by Chelsea at home, they lost 0-1 to Liverpool away.

Now they lost to Manchester City 3-4 again.

Overall, Manchester United's performance was really not bad, but it just lacked that little bit.

As the Times said after the fifth round of matches, the biggest gap between Manchester United and Manchester City now is the lack of Messi.

"Perhaps, the Red Devils should really consider signing Ronaldo back!"

This was originally an impossible option.

But now that Messi can transfer to the Premier League, signing Ronaldo back does not seem completely impossible.

During the summer transfer window, there were media rumors that Manchester United wanted to sign Ronaldo back.

The reason is that Manchester United's jersey sponsor Nike is willing to pay Manchester United a lucrative sponsorship contract to help the Red Devils pay Ronaldo's sky-high transfer fee.

Because Real Madrid's sponsor is Adidas.

But in the end it was Real Madrid that refused to sell Ronaldo.

And unlike Messi, Ronaldo's buyout clause is as high as 10 billion euros.

However, everyone can see that La Liga's decline is becoming more and more obvious.

Now that Messi has gone to the Premier League, if Ronaldo returns, how much appeal will La Liga have left?

……

Midweek, League Cup 3rd round.

Bayswater Chinese challenge Leicester City away.

Since being acquired by a Thai consortium, Leicester City has been adopting a pragmatic management strategy and steadily improving its strength.

This time, facing Bayswater Chinese at home, although the latter played with an all-substitute lineup, Leicester City still showed quite good competitiveness.

Throughout the first half, the opponent was hardly given any chance.

It was not until the 42nd minute that Harry Kane seized an opportunity and scored the first goal for the team with an assist from De Bruyne.

But in the 78th minute of the second half, Leicester City midfielder Danny Drinkwalk equalized the score for the home team.

Fortunately, three minutes later, young player Sterling scored a goal, helping the team to a narrow 3-2 away win over Leicester City.

……

December 9, the 28th round of the Premier League.

Mourinho's side take on Tottenham Hotspur at White Hart Lane.

Boas met his old club and was determined to clear his name.

Tottenham scored in the 19th minute of the first half.

They led the game all the way until the 81st minute of the second half, when Falcao scored a goal to equalize the score.

1 to 1, and the two sides finally shook hands and made peace.

Manchester United beat West Bromwich Albion 2-1 at home with goals from Cavani and Rooney.

Manchester City continued their excellent performance from the previous round. Messi once again contributed an assist and a goal, helping the Blue Moon beat Aston Villa 3-2 away.

By the way, Aston Villa equalized twice, but was finally defeated by Yaya Toure's goal.

This game was also very intense and exciting!

The current Premier League not only has the highest broadcasting level, but also the strongest competitive level in Europe.

Therefore, fans around the world are most satisfied with the Premier League.

It is generally believed that the Premier League is the most entertaining league in Europe!
Arsenal beat Swansea 2-1 away from home thanks to goals from Fabregas and Van Persie.

Liverpool beat Sunderland 3-1 away from home thanks to two goals from Suarez and a goal from Sturridge.

Due to the Champions League in the middle of the week, Yang Cheng made appropriate rotations in this round of away challenge against Everton.

11 minutes into the game, Everton youngster Ross Barkley scored a goal for the home team.

But in the 22nd minute, Modric assisted Walcott to equalize the score.

Before the end of the first half, Marcelo assisted Gareth Bale to score another goal, successfully reversing the score.

At the beginning of the second half, in the 48th minute, Gareth Bale scored his second goal with an assist from Marcelo.

Everton scored a goal in the 65th minute through a set-piece opportunity in the frontcourt, with Lukaku scoring.

In the end, Bayswater Chinese beat Everton 3-2 away.

……

In the middle of the week, in the second round of the Champions League group stage, Bayswater Chinese challenged AC Milan away.

Although the decline of Serie A has been criticized by countless fans, judging from the lineup alone, AC Milan is actually not bad.

There are stars like Robinho and Kaka on the front line, and players like Montolivo, De Jong and Muntari in the midfield.

It can be said that the Rossoneri's strength is really not bad.

Moreover, at home, Allegri also adopted a pragmatic defensive counterattack strategy, making it difficult for the Chinese in Bayswater to launch an attack.

In the 23rd minute of the first half, Gareth Bale scored a goal with an assist from Modric.

But in the 76th minute of the second half, in a quick counterattack, Robinho received a wonderful pass from Kaka and equalized the score for AC Milan.

Throughout the game, the Chinese players in Bayswater had an overwhelming advantage, but they just couldn't break the Rossoneri's goal again.

In the end, the two sides shook hands and settled for a draw 1-1.

This was a rather dull match.

Under AC Milan's tight defense, the Chinese players from Bayswater really couldn't create any good scoring opportunities.

In another match, Leverkusen defeated Real Sociedad 2-1 at home.

After 2 rounds of matches, Bayswater Chinese and AC Milan both had one win and one draw, earning 4 points.

Leverkusen won one and lost one, and got 3 points.

Real Sociedad has suffered two consecutive defeats.

……

In two consecutive away games, the Chinese players at Bayswater did not play very well.

First they were almost tied by Everton, and then they drew with AC Milan, which made the Chinese in Bayswater very motivated.

In this situation, the 7th round of the Premier League welcomed the newly promoted Cardiff.

Although it is still an away game, Yang Cheng still plays as a main player.

Just 9 minutes into the first half, Piszczek from the right used a precise cross to transfer the ball from the outside of the right corner of the penalty area to the front of the small penalty area.

Gareth Bale quickly moved forward, like a heavily armored tank, rushed to the front of the small penalty area, and scored with a header, opening the scoring for the team!

1 is better than 0!

In the 16th minute, there was a set-piece opportunity in the frontcourt.

Modric made a beautiful arc shot with great accuracy.

Dutch central defender Van Dijk, who replaced Pepe in the starting lineup in this game, overpowered all opponents in the penalty area and scored with a header.

2 is better than 0!

But no one expected that just 8 minutes later.

In the 25th minute, Hazard committed another foul while dribbling the ball in the frontcourt.

Modric took the free kick again, but it was Van Dijk who scored with a header in the penalty area.

3 is better than 0!

Everyone was stunned.

Even Yang Cheng himself did not expect that Van Dijk would score twice with a header.

A proper sword-carrying guard!

Before the end of the first half, Gareth Bale scored another goal with an assist from Giroud, making it his second goal.

4 is better than 0!

At this point in the game, it can be said that the suspense has been completely lost.

After the second half, in the 54th minute, Gareth Bale cut in from the right and made a wonderful pass. Giroud chested the ball in the penalty area and shot with his right foot.

5 is better than 0!

In the 75th minute, there was a corner kick opportunity. Van Dijk touched the ball in front and Gareth Bale headed the ball into the goal from the back.

6 is better than 0!

The Welshman scored a hat trick!
Yang Cheng himself couldn't believe what he saw.

He wasn't surprised by Gareth Bale's hat-trick.

Because the Welsh have such strength.

He has already scored several hat tricks in the Premier League last season.

What really surprised Yang Cheng was Van Dijk.

Is this kid’s header so good?
Van Dijk in this game can be described as a god sent from heaven!
Perhaps because Thiago Silva was lagging behind, this completely released Van Dijk's forward pressure.

The Dutchman not only made many attempts to steal the ball, performing very well, but his pursuit was also very unique.

But what was most eye-catching were his three headers.

Two strikes on goal and an assist for Gareth Bale’s hat trick.

This really caught everyone by surprise.

Including Yang Cheng and the coaching staff.

"I personally feel we should be developing some set-piece tactics around him, and Maguire as well."

Gianni Vio gave Yang Cheng some advice.

Both of these central defenders are big, tall center backs with strong heading abilities.

In recent years, as he gets older, Pepe's scoring efficiency in set pieces has actually begun to decline.

Coupled with the opponent's attention and close marking, the threat of Bayswater Chinese's set-piece attack was significantly weakened.

In this situation, as a weapon expert in set pieces, Gianni Vio's eyes lit up when he saw Van Dijk in this game.

Of course Yang Cheng was happy to do so.

After losing Lewandowski, the team needs to fill the goal gap as much as possible through various means and channels. Set-piece tactics are also a crucial part.

……

When Bayswater Chinese beat newly promoted Cardiff 6-0 away from home, the seventh round of the Premier League came to an end.

Manchester City beat Everton 3-1 at home with Aguero's two goals and Messi's assist and one shot.

Manchester United reversed Sunderland 2-1 away from home thanks to Cavani's two goals.

Chelsea beat Norwich 3-1 away.

Liverpool beat Crystal Palace 3-1 at home with goals from Suarez, Sturridge and Rakitic.

Arsenal lost a goal away from home, but Wilshere and Benzema scored a goal each to reverse the situation.

After 10 rounds of matches, Bayswater Chinese are still ranked third in the Premier League.

After the 7th round of the Premier League, European leagues continued to be suspended and the national team training camp started for two weeks in October.

The Brent training centre of the Bayswater Chinese is once again deserted.

Yang Cheng and everyone else were living in fear.

Fortunately, although the team has many international players, basically no one was injured and they all reported back to the team on time.

Two weeks later, the 8th round of the Premier League arrived.

Bayswater Chinese host Liverpool.

This is another key battle that must be faced on the road to the championship.

Affected by the national team training and the home game against Real Sociedad in the middle of the week, Yang Cheng had to rotate the team's lineup.

Van Dijk, who had performed very well before, started this time and partnered with Pepe to form a central defender combination.

Together with Luke Shaw and Piszczek, they form the back line of the Bayswater Chinese.

The midfield is a combination of Toni Kroos, Matic and Modric.

The forward trident is a combination of Gareth Bale, Giroud and Walcott.

Liverpool continued to adopt the 442 tactical style.

Goalkeeper: Buffon;
Defense: Kolarov, Nastasic, Skrtel and Glen Johnson;
Midfield: Rakitic, Mascherano and Gerrard in the back, Coutinho in front;

Forwards: Suarez and Sturridge.

This style of play was also adjusted by Mancini this season, and it is Liverpool's strongest lineup.

The most threatening of them is the trident of Coutinho, Suarez and Sturridge.

But when facing the Bayswater Chinese, Liverpool mainly relied on defensive counterattacks.

Just 9 minutes into the game, Toni Kroos used a long shot, forcing Buffon to make a crucial save.

But Liverpool quickly launched a counterattack.

Coutinho made a straight pass, Sturridge quickly moved forward to the right side of the penalty area, but Courtois rushed out to save the ball.

The two teams started a fast-paced offensive and defensive battle.

In the 20th and 22nd minutes, Bayswater Chinese got consecutive corner kick opportunities.

First, Giroud headed the ball, but it was blocked by Kolarov on the goal line.

Then Van Dijk's header was slightly higher.

When Liverpool launched a counterattack, the Bayswater Chinese successfully completed a steal in the backcourt.

After Matic successfully intercepted the ball, he quickly passed it to Giroud in front.

Giroud retreated and passed the ball to Gareth Bale on the left.

The Welshman drove straight into the game with the ball, but suddenly passed the ball to Toni Kroos who was coming from behind outside the left corner of the penalty area.

The German midfielder took a long shot from 28 meters away from the goal. After the ball bounced off the ground, it penetrated the goal guarded by Buffon.

1 is better than 0!

This wonderful goal completely ignited the atmosphere at Prudential Stadium.

At the same time, this also made it impossible for Liverpool to continue to defend.

The game thus became open.

Liverpool, currently ranked second in the Premier League, is ambitious and naturally unwilling to lose away from home.

The two sides started a fast-paced offensive and each created several opportunities.

But in the 42nd minute, after Liverpool's midfielder intercepted the ball, Rakitic sent a straight pass forward.

When Suarez retreated to receive the ball, he used an unconventional but beautiful stop and turn, dribbling past Van Dijk who was following him, and then he suddenly accelerated and sprinted forward with the ball.

After Van Dijk was passed by, he chased back very quickly and kept chasing all the way.

Just as Suarez was about to rush into the Bayswater Chinese team's penalty area with the ball, Van Dijk still failed to get in front of the Uruguayan striker. He was forced to commit a foul and pull the player from behind.

But what no one expected was that Suarez was not pulled down at the first try, but continued to rush forward with the ball and stepped one foot into the penalty area of ​​the Chinese team in Bayswater.

Van Dijk is still young after all.

After pulling, he saw that he failed to pull the opponent down, so he did not stop immediately, but was dragged into the penalty area by Suarez.

The next moment, the Uruguayan finally fell to the ground.

The referee Andrew Marina immediately blew the whistle, pointed to the penalty kick, and showed a red card to Van Dijk!
capital punishment!
