Chapter 44

Facing the ridicule of the media, Li Lei had nothing to say, after all, they really lost.

Today when he came to the training base and the locker room, he was greeted by the lost faces of his teammates.

Everyone was silent and sat in their seats with their heads down.

There was a heavy depression in the air, as if the whole team was in a depressed mood.

Li Lei knew that this was a direct consequence of the disastrous defeat in the last game.

As a rising star of the team, he also felt guilty for his performance in that game.

However, life still has to go on, and they can't be trapped in the shadows.

Name: Li Lei, forward.

Occupation: Leicester City professional football player.

Physical fitness: 76, speed: 93, strength: 66, shooting: 61, passing: 100, dribbling: 70, defense: 62.

Looking at the various attribute values of the body in front of him, Li Lei fell into contemplation. The training during this period was still effective, but it was not as fast as the direct addition.

The 6 wins from the start of the league to now have provided him with 6 attribute values. After adding it to what, the shooting attribute became 67.

This fiasco made Li Lei realize that he could not rely solely on his teammates, and he must also have the ability to create goals.

Before, he played more of an organizational core role, relying on shooters like Erdongqi and Vardy to complete the final blow.

But this game clearly exposed that if the shooter is in poor condition, the team's offense will be sluggish.

And he must improve his shooting ability and efficiency, and stand up to take on the responsibility of scoring goals at critical moments.

He wants to play in the Premier League next season, and bringing Leicester City into the Premier League is a process he must go through.

Determined to improve his goal-scoring ability, Li Lei adjusted his training methods.

In addition to regular physical and strength training, he added a lot of shooting training.

Li Lei asked the coach to set up more set-piece training, such as free kicks, penalties, corner kicks and other counterattack opportunities.

Practice diligently, and strive to quickly complete threatening shots in various blind spots.

In addition, Li Lei also made more shooting attempts in training games, instead of just passing the ball to the forward.

"Hey brother! Am I no longer your close comrade? You rarely pass the ball to me."Vardy said.

Li Lei patted his shoulder and said:"Brother, it's not that I don't pass the ball to you, but I want to improve my finishing ability and can't always rely on you."

"Last week's failure made me realize that to be a good playmaker, I must also be a goal threat."Li Lei explained

"So I have been practicing shooting recently, hoping to grow into an all-round midfield brain."

"Don't worry, brother, I will still pass the ball to you in the best position during the game, and we will always be the best partners!" Li Lei said with a smile.

Vardy also smiled after hearing this:"Okay, you are right."

Li Lei's determination to enhance his shooting ability has invisibly put pressure on the strikers.

They clearly felt that this new star in the frontcourt began to"occupy" their own scoring resources and was no longer willing to play only an auxiliary role.

The strikers looked solemn, worried that his actions would affect their performance. Some even secretly complained about Li Lei's selfishness, thinking that he should not compete with the strikers for credit, but they forgot that Li Lei was also a right winger.

But they also had to admit that Li Lei's approach was driving the progress of the entire team.

In order to keep their main position, the strikers can only train harder to ensure their competitiveness.

They began to tighten their nerves, competing to improve their skills and tacit understanding so as not to be outdone by the rookies.

Li Lei was like a big shark that suddenly appeared, forcing the originally comfortable school of fish to be vigilant and swim hard.

This invisibly It has prompted the team to form a positive and aggressive competitive posture, and each member is rapidly improving their own strength!

In last week's game, the poor performance of the back line completely angered head coach Pearson.

After the game, he severely criticized the defenders for their defensive loopholes, which were as useless as a colander.

In the training, Pearson made it clear:"If you continue to play so sleepily, I will directly demote you to the youth team!"

This remark was obviously directed at veteran defender George Taff.

George Taff has always been the team's main defender, but his form is not as good as before, and Pearson's threat undoubtedly puts him under tremendous pressure.

In order to keep his main position, George Taff can only work harder to ensure his competitiveness.

However, he must also respond to the reactions of the media and fans after the game.

At a subsequent press conference, the team manager spoke on behalf of Leicester City.:

"We are deeply aware that last week's defeat disappointed our fans and media friends. As a team, we take responsibility for this defeat."

"However, we will not be defeated by a defeat. This is just a small episode in the season and does not represent the full strength of the team."

"We have an excellent lineup and coaching team full of potential. This failure will only make everyone more proactive in reflecting on the problems and correcting the shortcomings."

"Please continue to support and encourage the team. We will train hard and regain our courage and fighting spirit soon."

"In the next game, we will definitely return to the field in a brand new state and give the fans a better performance. Please continue to believe in us, the brave men of Leicester City will definitely return heroically!"

Time flies, and it is October 3rd, the day when Leicester City will play away against Huddersfield. It has only been four days since the defeat, and this is a great opportunity for the team to make a comeback.

Everyone knows that silence will only allow external criticism to continue to ferment. If they want to regain their reputation, they must prove themselves with excellent performance in the game. This game will test whether the team has drawn strength from the trough.

The players are determined and morale is high, and they will move in unison.���Launch the most powerful attack on your opponent.
