Chapter 96

 In the stands, some old fans burst into tears.

  Premier League, we are finally here!

  A few years ago, they were struggling in League One.

  It wasn't until the 2008-2009 season that they won the English League One championship and returned to the second-tier English Championship.

  In the few seasons in the British Championship, they also had constant ups and downs.

  Now, they finally succeeded!

  And for many new fans, they are also very excited.

  The experience of failing to reach promotion last season is still fresh in their minds.

  And they also witnessed painful experience of the "Watford Miracle", making them the laughing stock of others.

  This season, they are back!

  Leading the second place by more than ten league points for a long time!

  Winning the English Championship six league games ahead of schedule!

  Successfully Promoted!

  Perfect season!

  Countless ribbons flying, countless applause!

  The King Power Stadium has become a sea of ​​joy at this moment!

  Pearson was also smiling on the sidelines.

  This season, he smiles a lot more.

  The team's performance is getting better and better, and his mood is getting better and better.

  He thought he would do well this season.

  But he never dreamed that he would win with such an overwhelming advantage.

  marvelous!

  This night, the city of Leicester saw no sleep!

  After this game, Pearson once again gave the players two days off to have a good rest.

  Three days later, in the 41st round of the British Championship, Leicester City lost 0-3 at home.

  It's not that the opponent Brighton is strong, but that Leicester City completely deployed a young and substitute lineup in this game.

  Not to mention Mahrez and Vardy, even Xia Xing, who has always occupied the main position and has excellent physical fitness, has not been included in the 18-man roster.

  For Leicester City, which has already won the championship, this game is just a training ground.

  Losing doesn't matter.

  The most important thing now is that the players must get as much rest as possible.

  After playing for a whole season, they are very tired and need to adjust quickly.

  Because in a few days, they will encounter a very powerful opponent!

  Leicester City's opponent in the FA Cup semi-finals is Arsenal!

  After the team's tactical training, and before the end of the day's training, Pearson talked about Arsenal with a serious expression.

  "The team under Wenger is one of the most offensive teams in Europe.

  "I even think that if they are in good condition, they will be among the top three in Europe in terms of offensive power.

  "This opponent is very strong, especially strong.

  "Goalkeeper Szczesny is very stable.

  "The defenders Vermaelen, Mertesacker and Koscielny are all very solid.

  "The midfielders Rosicky, Arteta and Cazorla play very artistically and are good at passing and shooting.

  "There are also Ramsey, Flamini, Chamberlain, etc.

  "Arsenal can even field two sets of starting midfielders of equal strength, which is very powerful.

  "The absolute arrow on the front line is naturally Giroud.

  "He is the first-class center of this era in my mind.

  "He has strong offensive power and better ball-making ability.

  "A standard tactical center forward.

  "Our opponent this time is very difficult to beat.

  "What do you think of this game and this opponent? "

  As soon as Pearson finished speaking, Drinkwater spoke first.

  "Coach, I just looked at the Premier League rankings last night.

  Arsenal was ranked fourth.

  "Well, they are still ranked fourth."

  "Who is in front of them?

  "Man City, Liverpool, Chelsea,

  "These three teams are far ahead of Arsenal."

  "In other words, Arsenal's overall strength and state this season are not as good as the three teams in front of them."

  "That's interesting.

  "In the FA Cup, it seems that Manchester City and Chelsea were eliminated by the same team, right?

  "Really, James?"

  James next to him said, "That's right! They were all eliminated by a great team!"   

  "Is it Manchester United?"

  "Of course not!"

  "Is it Liverpool?"

  "No way!"

  "Who is that?"

  "It's Leicester City! It's us!"

  "Perfect! they are the first and third in the Premier League. If we can win the top three, who cares about fourth place in the Premier League?"

  After saying this, Drinkwater looked at the coaching staff proudly.

  Pearson and Shakespeare looked at each other.

  "Nigel, I really want to hit James, he is so stupid and cheap."

  "Control it, control it."

  Just as Drinkwater and James finished their charade, De Laet next to him also spoke.

  "I have not defended Giroud, but I have defended Dzeko.

  "We have not played against Rosicky, Cazorla, and Ramsey.

  "But we have played against David Silva, Nasri, and Yaya Toure."

  "I watched the Premier League a few days ago.

  "Manchester City and Arsenal tied 1-1, which is a close match.

  "So it can be seen that we can beat Manchester City 1-0.

  "We can also win a 1-0 victory over Arsenal.

  "Same reasoning, very reasonable. "

  Shakespeare: "Your middle school physical education class was taught by your math teacher, right..."

  The funny trio all spoke, and other players also spoke one after another.

  Even Mahrez, the least talkative, also spoke: "Against Arsenal, I will score! "

  Vardy: "Brother, can you try to get another assist..."

  Pearson and Shakespeare watched the players speak confidently, and he listened carefully.

  Ten minutes later, Pearson nodded: "Of course I am happy that everyone is so confident. I hope that our legendary FA Cup experience will not end this season and will go until the end! "

  "Let's go! "

  "We must reach the finals! "

  "We are definitely the FA Cup champions! "

  With the players screaming with belief, Pearson announced the end of the day's training.

  Almost all the players left the training ground.

  They were too tired during this period, and Vardy was also adjusting his body and temporarily stopped practicing extra.

  But there was one person who didn't stop. He was still practicing alone on the field.

  Pearson and Shakespeare looked up and saw the figure on the court.

  "Xia, why don't you take a break?" You train alot.

  "It's okay coach, I'm fine! "

  "Come here and rest for a while. Let's talk. "

  "Okay! "

  When he came to the side of the field, Shakespeare adjusted his seat and let Xia Xing sit between the two.

  Pearson looked at Xia Xing and recalled the scene just now.

  "Why didn't you say anything about the discussion about Arsenal just now? You are not a silent and introverted young man. "

  "Well... everyone was enthusiastically expressing their opinions just now. It might not be appropriate for me to speak, so I didn't say anything."

  "Why is it inappropriate? "

  "Because I think differently from them."

  "oh? Think differently? Do you think they are overconfident?"

  "No, no, it's not that they are overconfident. Confidence is of course a good thing. "

  "Then you think they underestimated their enemy? "

  "That's right! "

"They are underestimating the enemy! This time the opponent Arsenal is completely different from the previous Manchester City and Chelsea..."
