The European Golden Boy Award is a recognition of Ling Feng's amazing performance in the past year.
At the same time, it is also an affirmation of English football!
As a member of the country's youth training and household register, Ling Feng's award can be regarded as an outstanding youth training achievement in England.
This also makes the English football community and the media feel proud and proud.
As a result, the next day's "The Times", "The Independent", "The Guardian", "The Mirror" and other British media, large and small, all published the photo of Ling Feng holding the Golden Boy Award on the cover of the newspaper!
Most media and newspapers began to praise it without sparing any effort.
"Great British Emperor Star!"
"The future number one midfielder in the Premier League!"
It is worth mentioning that many people compare Ling Feng to Paul Pogba, the young midfielder core of Juventus who won the last Golden Boy Award.
The two are similar in age, both play midfielder position, and are both the hottest supernovas in world football.
And compared their personal data so far this season and their results this year:
Not even halfway through the season, Pogba has played 16 games in Serie A, scoring only three goals and assisting two.
Ling Feng has played fifteen times in the Premier League, scored eight goals, and provided fifteen assists!
Ling Feng plays for Leicester City, a newly promoted team in the Premier League, and Pogba plays for Juventus, the top team in Serie A.
The former helped Leicester City win the English Championship and FA Cup;
The latter helped Juventus win the Serie A championship and reach the Champions League semi-finals.
Although the team's record and championship honors are slightly inferior to the former.
However, the strength of the former's teammates and the support given to him are far inferior to the latter.
Even so, in terms of personal data, Ling Feng still completely beat Pogba!
Therefore, in the eyes of many people, if Ling Feng is placed in a wealthy team with a top lineup like Juventus, his personal data will only be more gorgeous.
On the contrary, if Pogba is in Leicester City, he may not be able to perform like Ling Feng!
Of course, this is just the assumption of Guan Gong fighting Qin Qiong.
Strictly speaking, the two have different positions and responsibilities on the court.
Ling Feng is an attacking midfielder similar to Kaká, while Pogba is a central midfielder similar to Yaya Toure.
The former is closer to the goal and its main task is organization and offense;
The latter is more committed to the midfield, both defensive and offensive.
In terms of inconspicuous defensive data, Pogba completely beat Lingfeng!
What's more, the ball rights obtained by the two in their respective teams are also very different.
In Leicester City, Ling Feng is the absolute core of the frontcourt, and almost all attacks in the frontcourt will pass through his feet.
At Juventus, Pirlo is the absolute brains of the midfield and the initiator of the team's offense.
At most, Pogba occasionally dribbles the ball from the center, or steps in from behind to shoot. His energy in participating in the offense is far less than that of Ling Feng, who focuses on offense.
However, the media in England will not care about such inconspicuous data.
They only know that Ling Feng's goals and assists data are better than Pogba's.
That proves that Ling Feng is stronger than Pogba!
He is the strongest among all U21 players in world football today!
After Ling Feng won the Golden Boy Award, fans from other countries also attracted their attention.
They really want to know what the level of this 19-year-old British star, who has been trumpeted by the English media and defeated many geniuses, prodigies, and supernovas to win this year's Golden Boy Award, is really good!
As a result, in just a few days, a large number of fans flooded into Leicester City Club's official website and social media accounts, and the number of fans skyrocketed by hundreds of thousands.
All No. 7 jerseys in the club’s official fan store are sold out!
And we have received tens of thousands of orders from all over the world!
In order to take advantage of the opportunity to expand the club's influence, Leicester City's marketing department immediately edited a collection of Ling Feng's personal highlights and posted it on the club's official website.
In the highlights, Ling Feng is either making soup on the wing, passing the ball accurately, scoring goals and assists, he can do almost anything!
And this video has reached millions of views in just three days!
In addition to the praise from the media and the pursuit of fans, Beckham, Ferdinand, Gerrard, Hodgson, Hazard, Maguire and other coaches, seniors and friends of Lingfeng in the football world have all sent him messages. Congratulations message.
Leicester City legend and Ling Feng’s famous fan, Lineker, even tweeted:
"December 20, 2014, please remember this day!"
"From this day on, world football has not only witnessed the rise of a star of hope, but the rise of a superstar!"
However, Ling Feng did not feel complacent about all kinds of praise and adulation from the outside world.
He has a full understanding of his own strength,
And he doesn't feel that he is stronger than Pogba now.
In addition to his speed and passing, Pogba's ball control and dribbling, ability to push forward, and long-range shooting ability all beat him!
Of course, in terms of professional attitude and ethics, he completely beat Pogba.
Ling Feng firmly believes that he will definitely be better than Pogba in the future!
. . .
Because on the day he won the Golden Boy Award, he had to go to London to participate in the seventeenth round of the league.
Therefore, Ling Feng did not open the [Player Skill Treasure Box] immediately.
The opponent in the seventeenth round is West Ham United, the "Hammer Gang" ranked fifth in the league.
The duel between the third place in the league and the fifth place in the league can be said to be a direct dialogue for the fourth place!
Under the leadership of "Big Sam" Allardyce, West Ham United has been in good form recently. They have been unbeaten in four games and achieved an excellent record of three wins and one draw.
Moreover, this is a home game. Pearson had already told the players before the game,
However, what everyone did not expect was that at Upton Park Stadium, Leicester City suffered a disastrous defeat that cost them both their wives and their troops.
Seventeen minutes into the first half, the team's main forward Vardy strained his left hamstring during a sprint confrontation with an opponent's player.
Vardy had no choice but to retire due to injury, and Pearson had no choice but to send on Ulloa.
However, the house leaked and it rained all night.
The first half is not over yet, Leicester City is hit again!
Under the pressure of West Ham United in the frontcourt, center back Moore was slightly distracted and passed the ball directly to the opponent's forward Sakho.
The latter dribbled the ball into the penalty area, but Moore's brain got hot and he stretched out his hand to pull him down.
Since Moore was the last defensive player on his side, the referee immediately sentenced him to death!
Red dot package!
Sakho scored instantly and took the lead in the first half.
With one goal behind and the embarrassing situation of missing one player, the two sides returned to the locker room.
In the second half, Pearson directly replaced winger Lingard and replaced him with center back Upson, and moved Mahrez and Ling Feng to the left and right sides.
Then he retracted his formation and launched a defensive counterattack.
If there is a ball in the backcourt, pass it to the two wings.
As for the rest, leave it to Ling Feng and Mahrez!
With the contraction of defense, Leicester City, which was fighting with ten men, fell into a situation of being besieged by its opponents.
The problem of defensive instability this season has also been exposed one after another by the Hammers!
In the defensive center back position, except for Morgan, whose performance was relatively stable, the other three center backs performed very well.
Moore is frizzy and easily distracted;
Former England international Upson and Poland international Wasilevskiy are too old, too slow and have rough skills.
Especially against forwards with speed and impact like Sakho and Enna Valencia, they were so rushed that even their mother didn't recognize them.
Finally, in the 68th and 83rd minutes of the game, with goals from Sakho and Enna Valencia, West Ham United expanded the score to 3-0!
Although at the last moment, Ling Feng made a pass from the right, helping Ulloa score with a header.
However, this goal was ruled invalid.
Because before scoring, Ulloa made a push on his hand and pushed the West Ham United center defender next to him.
And this was also the last attack between the two sides in this game.
In this way, the Blue Fox experienced the weakest defeat of the season.
A net loss of three goals was also the most irritable game Leicester City lost in a single game.
Losing a game is nothing.
The key is that they also lost the team's main forward Vardy!
Vardy has scored nine goals this season and is Leicester City's top scorer.
Fortunately, after examination, Vardy will be injured for three to five weeks and will be able to return to the team in about a month.
Vardy, plus Schmeichel Jr., who is injured, and right back De Wright, who sprained his knee during training, Leicester City now has three injured players.
This makes the already poor family even worse.
You know, Leicester City can be said to be the team with the worst lineup depth among the twenty Premier League teams!
In the case of two-line operations, there are exactly two players in each position.
This defeat actually strengthened Pearson's determination to strengthen the defense!
On the bus back, the Blue Fox generals who lost the game were not in a high mood.
Head coach Pearson, holding a tablet computer, repeatedly watched the team's defensive performance in this game.
As he watched, his brows furrowed deeper and deeper.
Finally, he suddenly pressed pause, then poked Walsh next to him with his elbow, turned around, and said seriously:
"Steve, it looks like we have to ask the boss to spend some money."
"Do you have any idea?"
"I want to find a reliable central defender!"
As the team's chief scout, Walsh has introduced most of Leicester City's current players, including Morgan, Vardy, Mahrez and other core players, through his inspection and recommendation.
And this old man has a small notebook in his hand, which contains all the players he has inspected.
After hearing Pearson's request, he took out a small brown notebook from his inner pocket and flipped it through:
"Given where we are in the league right now, I think we have a lot of options."
. . .
While the team's head coach and chief scout were discussing strengthening the defense, Ling Feng, who was sitting by the window in the back of the bus, had his eyes closed and was reviewing today's defeat.
In football, you lose and you win, that's normal.
Leicester City is not a super wealthy team, and losing is not the end of the world.
The important thing is that he should learn from his failures so that he can reduce the number of mistakes he makes and thereby improve!
In Ling Feng's opinion, his performance in this game was average.
Especially after the team was sent off one man, he not only had to attack on the wing, but also had to frequently return to defense.
Even on the right wing, he blasted the opponent's left back.
But the opponent has already figured out his offensive routine.
Knowing that his left foot is weak and he can't cut inside, he has only one option on the right - to cross from the bottom!
Although he couldn't prevent his cross.
But just keep an eye on Ulloa in the middle and don't let him catch the ball easily.
Then, no matter how accurate Ling Feng's pass was, it would not be possible for it to hit Ulloa on the head and sneak into the door.
After all, Ling Feng concluded:
In the final analysis, his personal ability is not strong enough!
If he has strong foot skills like Hazard, Messi, and Robben to attack the goal independently, he will not need to rely on his teammates and can directly solve the problem.
Thinking of this, Ling Feng suddenly thought of something in his inventory that could make him stronger.
So, he immediately summoned the [Character Panel], then opened the [Inventory], and saw a glowing treasure chest.
He vaguely noticed that the light of this treasure box was much more dazzling than the two treasure boxes he obtained last time.
Could it be that we can use more powerful skills this time?
[Do you want to open the player skill treasure chest? 】
Faced with system problems, of course he chose "yes"!
In Ling Feng's expectant eyes, the treasure box gave him a big surprise:
[Ding dong! 】
[Congratulations to the player, you have obtained the S-level skill - Horse-riding Meteor! 】
[Skill Name: Horse Steps on Meteor]
[Skill level: S]
[Skill effect: The accuracy and speed of dribbling are greatly improved, and there is a certain chance that defenders will make defensive mistakes]
[Skill representative player: Kaka]
As the saying goes, the people in Mo Shang are like jade, and the young master is unparalleled in the world!
I actually got Kaka’s exclusive skill? !
Nice~~~
Just when Ling Feng was overjoyed and wanted to jump out of the car seat, countless scenes flashed through his mind.
Every scene shows a super handsome guy with good looks who could star in a Hollywood movie, striding on the court and dribbling the ball forward!
Different opponents, different jerseys.
The only thing that remains unchanged is the cool and unrestrained figure that holds the head high and drives the ball forward with an unstoppable attitude!
With the scenes in his mind, Ling Feng learned the techniques and key points of this skill in a short period of time.
Immediately afterwards, he suddenly remembered the Kaka collection he had seen in his previous life.
In each game, Kaka was like a knight-errant with a long sword. After passing several people with long strides, he rushed to the door and completed a fatal blow!
The silver saddle shines on the white horse, rustling like a shooting star!
Kill one person in ten steps, leave no trace behind in a thousand miles!
After the excitement and excitement, Ling Feng quickly calmed down and began to analyze how much this skill helped him.
Of course, even with this [Horse Stepping on Meteor] skill, his ability to advance with the ball can be greatly improved.
However, this does not mean that he can easily pass his opponents on the court.
Whether he can surpass others is closely related to his various attributes, such as [Dribbling], [Ball Protection], [Balance], [Concentration], etc.
The higher the various attributes, the higher his success rate when dribbling the ball.
And if he wants to reach the level of pushing through the middle and passing several people like Kaka in his peak period, his [Dribbling] and related attributes must be at least 90 or above!
This means that he still has a long way to go.
