As the whistle sounded at the end of the game, Leicester City ended this bloody massacre.
Post-match statistics showed that the rhythm of the entire game was almost entirely under the control of the home team:
The number of shots in the game, twenty-three to three!
The ball possession rate is seven to three!
The score is five to zero!
Just three words, press and kick!
It is worth mentioning that in the last two meetings between the two teams, Burnley conceded a terrifying nine goals, but only scored a pitiful goal!
Burnley's head coach and players all looked confused and helpless.
I only have the same thought in my mind:
Blue lean mushrooms.
Why am I always the one who's hurt? !
Vardy, who scored twice in this game, was elected the best player of the game for the first time.
However, everyone can see that without Ling Feng’s organization and threatening passing in the midfield and frontcourt, Leicester City would not have pinned Burnley to the ground and rubbed them wildly.
And Vardy will not score twice easily!
Even if he didn't win the best of the game in this game.
However, in this game, Ling Feng once again contributed two assists, becoming the first player to reach ten assists in the Premier League this season!
It only took him seven games to achieve this achievement!
This achievement, in addition to allowing Ling Feng to complete the achievement of "Double assists in the Premier League" and obtain two free attribute points as a reward.
It also made him the fastest player to send out ten assists since the establishment of the Premier League!
After the game, major media and newspapers rushed to report the process and results of this battle for promotion.
Because, after this game, Burnley is still at the bottom of the league.
Leicester City, who were promoted to the Premier League with them, temporarily surpassed Chelsea, who had not yet kicked off, to the top of the league with a goal difference advantage!
The same newly promoted teams, one after another in the league rankings
Such a strong contrast surprised many fans and football experts.
"What kind of medicine did these people in Leicester City take? Why are they so strong?!"
"This guy is a newly promoted horse?!"
"Could it be that they are still planning to copy the Kaiserslautern myth?!"
The myth of Kaiserslautern is a miracle in world football.
In the 1996-97 season, the German second division team Kaiserslautern, under the leadership of head coach "Otto the Great" Otto Rehagel, first won the German Football League Championship.
And was promoted to the Bundesliga as champions.
Then, in their first season after being promoted to the Bundesliga, Kaiserslautern shockingly won the Bundesliga title, becoming only the second team in the world to win the second-division title before winning the top-flight title the following season. team!
At this point, people have called the achievement of a team winning the second-tier league and top-tier league championships for two consecutive seasons the "Kaiserslautern Myth."
However, many people still believe that there are many factors why Leicester City can reach the top of the league after seven rounds of games.
At present, they have shown a very strong competitive state when facing the mid-to-lower rankings and relegation teams last season.
But they failed to win against top-ranked giants such as Chelsea and Arsenal.
This shows that there is still a gap between their hard power and the powerful teams.
The reason why they successively defeated top teams such as Everton and Manchester United was mainly due to the team's offense-defense tactics, which allowed the team's core Ling Feng to give full play to his offensive talents and control the entire team's offense. It was suddenly raised to a higher level!
However, Leicester City still has to fight on two fronts this season, and the lineup is insufficient in depth. Problems will definitely occur later in the season.
At that time, once the core players are injured or take a break, this Blue Fox will show its original shape and slowly return to its own position.
However, with the offensive firepower displayed by Leicester City, relegation will definitely be worry-free this season.
Unlike most newspapers that analyze Leicester City's future prospects, "The Times" focuses on the individual performance of the players.
They released an online poll directly on their official website, and the content of the vote is:
"Can Ling Feng break Thierry Henry's league assist record this season?"
"Yes or no?"
In the 2002-03 season, "The Great" Thierry Henry set a single-season league assist record for a Premier League player with 20 assists in the league!
What is even more worth mentioning is that in addition to 20 assists in the league, Henry also scored 24 goals in the league!
The huge double-double data of goals and assists is enough to prove that Henry at his peak is definitely the number one player in the Premier League!
Now, in his first season in the Premier League, Ling Feng's assist ability has been compared by the media with the Premier League legend "The Great" Henry.
This is definitely a great recognition of his personal ability and performance on the field!
Of course, the British media is not bragging.
You know, 11 assists in seven games and a terrifying efficiency of 1.6 assists per game are worthy of bragging for any player.
What's more, this player has a household registration in his own country!
According to this assist efficiency, if the number of appearances is the same as Henry's, at the end of the season, Ling Feng's number of assists in a single season will reach a terrifying sixty!
Of course, this is only theoretical.
The matter of assists does not mean that you can assist if you want to.
Compared with goals that can be completed by one person, assists that require cooperation are more difficult.
Because for assists, half depends on the passer and half depends on the receiver!
No matter how great a player's cake-feeding ability is, there is no guarantee that every hot cake delivered will go into the mouths of his teammates.
What the cake feeder is most afraid of is that after the cake has been brought to his mouth or even stuffed into his mouth, his teammates are unwilling to eat it and have to spit it out!
You know, eating cakes is also a skill!
This online voting immediately aroused the interest of fans and they rushed to vote.
Most importantly, the results of this online vote will be announced at the end of the season.
Then ten lucky viewers will be drawn and given a free membership to The Times for one year, plus a thousand pounds each!
A year's worth of newspapers is nothing.
The key point is that one thousand pounds is not a small sum.
All they have to do is enter the website, vote and fill in their personal information, and they will have a chance to win a thousand pounds.
Therefore, in just two days, more than tens of thousands of people participated in voting.
Seventy percent of the voters believe that Ling Feng can break Henry's league assist record this season!
The Leicester City midfielder has provided an astonishing 11 assists in the first seven rounds of the Premier League.
In other words, in the next thirty rounds of the league, he only needs to send out nine more assists to tie Henry's league assist record.
If you send out ten assists, you can break Henry's record and become the player with the most assists in a single season in the Premier League!
It seems that Ling Feng has enough games to break Henry's league assist record.
However, the problem is that Ling Feng may be injured or take a rest, and may not be able to complete the remaining 31 rounds of the league.
Even if he plays the remaining thirty rounds of the league, he may not be able to provide assists in every game.
No one knows what will happen in the future.
However, everyone believes that with Ling Feng's assist ability, it is completely possible to send ten assists in the remaining leagues!
The possibility is still great!
Ling Feng, who was in the Belvoir base, also learned about this online voting through social media.
Ever since, he also specially shot a short video and uploaded it to his major social media accounts.
The content of the short video is that he took a laptop, entered the official website of The Times, and participated in the online voting process.
Of course, he voted "yes"
Immediately afterwards, he also started a challenge on his social media account:
If he can break Henry's record at the end of the season, ten lucky people will be drawn in the comments and given away his autographed jersey and a reward of 5,000 pounds!
If he can't break the record, he will draw ten lucky people in the comment area and give away 5,000 pounds each!
This reward is five times higher than that of The Times!
And in just a few minutes after he posted it, the number of comments, likes, and reposts on this post all increased at an alarming rate!
Ten minutes later, his agent Mendes called him and felt that what he did was not good and too public.
Obviously, doing so will only make the other nineteen Premier League teams focus more on him and prevent him from breaking the assist record.
After all, no one wants to be the background for Ling Feng to break the assist record.
However, in Ling Feng's view, this does not matter at all.
Originally, as the core of Leicester City's team, even if these things hadn't happened, the other nineteen Premier League teams would have focused on him!
The reason for doing this is a kind of confidence in one's own strength, and it is also an inner spur.
Ling Feng certainly hopes to break Henry's assist record and become the best man in a single season!
He also believes that he has the ability to do it, so why not openly admit that he is strong?
As a professional player, confidence is very important.
If you don't have confidence in yourself, how can you defeat your opponents on the court and win and win the championship? !
After listening to Ling Feng's explanation, Mendes also felt that it made sense.
Since coming into contact with this young man, he has long discovered that Ling Feng is the kind of person with mature thinking and independent opinions.
He is willing to follow the advice of others.
However, he will also stand firm on what he thinks is right and will not waver easily.
What surprised the broker most was that from Ling Feng's words, he once again thought of another Portuguese young man who signed a contract with him at the age of eighteen.
Like Ronaldo when he was young, this young man is also full of confidence!
Mendes suddenly had a hunch that if this young man continued to grow at this terrifying rate, he might one day become another ace in his hands.
. . .
Seeing that The Times has engaged in such a wave of operations to attract attention and traffic, the Guardian, which together with The Times and The Daily Telegraph are the three major newspapers in the UK, has finally launched a wave of useful information. Full operation:
On October 8, the Guardian launched a new special column called "The Next Generation"
Starting from this year, the newspaper will invite ten football experts every October, and then let them select 20 new Premier League stars and 40 promising stars from around the world through rigorous data analysis and game performance.
There are a total of sixty people in total, and they are called the Sixty Rising Stars!
Most of this list of the top 60 rising stars are rising stars this year, or have shown amazing potential before.
Among them, there are also many names that are familiar to hardcore fans such as Ling Feng.
The forty stars of hope in the world are divided into three major regions: Asia, America and Europe.
Asia is not worth mentioning.
Among the rising stars in the Americas, Malcom, a teenager from Corinthians in Brazil, is the most famous.
Among European new stars, it is the area with the highest success rate for future generations.
Led by Rennes youngster Ousmane Dembélé, Belgian prodigy and FM super demon Tielemans, Porto's youngest captain Ruben Neves, Frankfurt striker Jovic, etc., they are all players who will play in the five major leagues in the future. A player with a good performance!
As for the top twenty rising stars selected from each Premier League team, there are many potential rookies worthy of attention.
For example, Dominic Solanke, who led Chelsea to win the FA Youth Cup, and Marcus Rashford, who served as captain of Manchester United's U19 echelon when he was less than 17 years old, are among the leaders.
As for Leicester City's star of hope, it is naturally Ling Feng, who is 19 years old and has already made a splash in the Premier League!
And he is also the only player among the top twenty rising stars in the Premier League who can start in the Premier League.
If we were to rank these sixty rising stars, Ling Feng would be the absolute number one!
The Guardian's football experts also write relevant information and scouting reports for each new star, plus a brief comment.
For example, Rashford's comment is "a new wing star who is good at breakthroughs."
And Ling Feng’s comment was:
"The next midfield master!"
This shows how optimistic the Guardian is about his future and development prospects!
The British media have seen the sudden emergence of Michael Owen, the "chasing boy", and Wayne Rooney, the "violent little tank";
I have also seen "Little Beckham" David Beckham lob a half-court shot, and "little threat" Jack Wilshere singled out Ha Baibu.
However, they have never seen a super genius who is only 19 years old and can control the overall situation in the midfield position and has a mature style of play!
Maybe Cesc Fabregas is one.
However, looking at the performance and data on the court, the current Ling Feng is no less than Fabregas back then!
Especially at the national team level, 19-year-old Ling Feng is already the core midfielder of the Three Lions.
And the nineteen-year-old Xiaofa is just a substitute for the Spanish "Habaibu".
Of course, the situation and lineup of the two national teams are not the same, so there is not much comparison.
However, according to the "Guardian" and many British media, Ling Feng's future achievements will definitely surpass Cesc Fabregas!
