Chapter 85: The Four Great Forwards: The Beaten Forward, the Shaker Grealish! (Please order first!)
Douyin live broadcast room.
Zhan Jun was actively and nervously preparing the materials, only Fan Zhiyi was still chatting heartlessly with the barrage.
In addition, there is a heavyweight guest in the live broadcast room!
National team coach Lippi’s right-hand man, Li Tie!
Ever since Song Wen took off his clothes to celebrate and made Zheng Zhi's fame spread throughout England, the current players of the national team can be said to be terrified of Song.
The reason why Tiezi came to the live broadcast room.
One reason is that Song Wen and Fan Zhiyi gave too much.
Second, my friend is shameless.
At this time, the popularity in the live broadcast room has once again broken through another new high since Fan Zhiyi started broadcasting.
The public opinion storm caused by Song Wen before was too big. Now is his first game after returning to the field, and this game is directly related to whether Ipswich can continue to work hard to impact the Premier League.
If they lose this game, the fact that Song Wen was suspended for six games due to a red card, which resulted in the team now having insufficient points and unable to enter the promotion zone, will obviously be a good joke for the haters.
The attention to this game was so high that the popularity of Fan Zhiyi's live broadcast room exceeded three million, causing Douyin's live broadcast server, which was not yet perfect, to be paralyzed several times.
Zhan Jun glanced at the time and sighed inwardly.
This old guy Fan Zhiyi can only curse and swear to improve the program effect. He can't support the commentary in the live broadcast room by himself, and he is warned by the super administrator every few days.
As a result, he has now become Song Wen's henchman.
"Li Tie, do you think Ipswich has anything to say about today's game?"
Hearing Fan Zhiyi's question, Tiezi pouted and blew his bangs.
Not blowing.
So he scratched it with his hands again and said seriously: "Today's game is actually quite difficult for Ipswich."
Zhan Jun also nodded, looked at the information in his hand, and analyzed:
"Ipswich's opponent today is Aston Villa, which is currently ranked third in the standings! Aston Villa's performance this season is amazing. Throughout the entire season, they have almost been closely following second-placed Brighton! And they are now only two points away from the lead. If Brighton loses today's game and Aston Villa wins, they will directly qualify for the Premier League, so it can be predicted that Aston Villa will be absolutely motivated to fight today!"
Although Ipswich's ancestors were once wealthy, compared with Aston Villa, they can only be regarded as real "country bumpkins".
Aston Villa is a team with a very rich and colorful history.
As one of the oldest teams in England, Aston Villa is the founding team of the English Football League in 1888 and the English Premier League in 1992.
Not only do they have a long history, but they also have a glorious history comparable to century-old giants such as Manchester United and Liverpool. They have won seven English top league titles, seven FA Cup titles, five League Cup titles, and also won the runner-up in the first year of the Premier League.
They had just been relegated from the Premier League in the 15/16 season, and before that, they had never been relegated from the Premier League.
This season, Aston Villa obviously does not want to sink in the Championship and has performed very well.
Most importantly, Aston Villa was a church club when it was first established, and its level was many times higher than that of workers' teams such as Arsenal and Liverpool.
Among the aristocratic group who are particular about everything, Villa has many high-class fans.
Among them, the most prestigious fan is Prince William from the British royal family.
After Zhan Jun talked about Ipswich's opponent on the field today, he also mentioned Ipswich's opponent off the field.
Farmer Fulham.
"Fulham is now ranked sixth in the standings with a two-goal advantage. Both Ipswich and Fulham must fight hard for victory in today's game, and more than that, they need to score as many goals as possible. But the good news is that the opponent Fulham will face today is also very strong. It is Leeds United, which is currently ranked fourth in the standings!"
Fan Zhiyi frowned and said with some concern:
"To be honest, I am really worried now. I am afraid that Leeds United will let us win. Do you know? This team has had a feud with Song Wen, and they are in a state of having no desire or ambition. No matter they win or lose this game, they can still play in the play-offs."
Hearing what Zhan Jun said, Li Tie smoothed his bangs and shook his head.
"I don't think so. I know Bielsa well. Although everyone calls him a madman, I have always admired his character. He is a very upright person."
The White Rose Stadium at this time.
Several players were discussing something in the corner.
"Let's just play casually today. I really can't run anymore. Bielsa doesn't treat us as human beings at all."
"That old lunatic simply treats us like robots. Anyway, our ranking has stabilized, so there is no need to work so hard."
"Yes, and I think we can even allow Fulham to score a few more goals."
"Isn't this a bad idea? Should I ask the coach what he thinks?"
"Hey! What are you talking about! Are you going to ask that old stubborn guy?! Have you forgotten that last time he let us leave the goal open and let the opponent score a goal for what he called fairness! I defended seriously, but in the end I was scolded by that old guy."
"Although I think this is unsportsmanlike, Song is a disgusting person. If it weren't for his malicious foul, we might still be able to compete for the top two spots."
"Anyway, it's okay. People say we don't have any desires or ambitions. It doesn't matter even if we lose today's game."
On the other side is Birmingham City's Villa Park.
Song Wen had just taken off his baseball cap and was warming up on the sidelines.
He did not choose to wear a helmet today.
The baseball cap can improve his set-piece ability. It is foreseeable that in this game, they must fight for victory with all their strength while scoring as many goals as possible.
And it is impossible for him to score goals alone.
Excellent set-piece ability can better create more scoring opportunities for teammates.
Villa Park was already crowded and packed with people.
After all, today's game is the last round of the Championship.
And this also concerns whether Aston Villa can be directly promoted to the Premier League.
In order to support his favorite team, even Prince William of the British royal family came to the scene.
Time passed by minute by minute, the game between the two sides was about to begin, and in the live broadcast room, Zhan Jun also began to make a final summary of the lineups of both sides.
"We saw that today, for both teams, they only had one goal, which was to fight for victory. So both sides set up a 4-3-3 formation!"
"Ipswich's forward line is still led by McGoldrick, with Pittman and another forward March. In the midfield configuration, our most familiar Song Wen also returned to the starting attacking midfielder position after completing his six-game suspension. On his side are Sears and Skuse! On the back line, captain Chambers moved from the center back position to the full-back position today. It can also be clearly seen that head coach McCarthy has a strong desire to attack!"
"As for Aston Villa, their forward line is led by French player Jordan Amavi. This young striker joined Aston Villa in 15 for a transfer fee of 1.1 million euros. Now he ranks first in the Championship player scoring list, averaging a terrifying goals per game."
Fan Zhiyi, who was standing by, heard Zhan Jun's words, moved his ears, and interrupted wittily:
"Hey, Mr. Zhan Jun, let me interrupt you here. Currently, Song Wen ranks fourth in the English Championship player scoring list, six goals behind Amavi's 42 goals. But you have to know that Song Wen has only played for half a season. Oh, this is really scary. If he plays for a whole season, his goals will be close to over . And Song Wen is now in first place in the assists list with an absolute advantage. For a player like this, your sports data companies are really blind to give Song Wen a value of million. You don't know what you are doing."
Seeing that Fan Zhiyi had finished blowing Song Wen, Zhan Jun smiled helplessly and continued:
"And Aston Villa has a very young player who can also be watched, No. 40 Grealish. This player is also the most eye-catching young player in the Championship besides Song Wen. He is a player of the England U21 national team."
On the court, players from both sides are ready.
Song Wen silently rubbed the grass with his sneakers. When he looked up, he saw someone twisting his body in the opposite midfield.
This young player, who was quite handsome, looked a bit like a low-profile version of Beckham. At this moment, he was swaying in place with an excited expression, as if he had earphones in his ears playing BGM.
Song Wen was slightly stunned and his eyes lit up.
This is not one of the four great strikers in the future, the striker who was beaten, Shake Graley!
Although Grealish has not yet become famous, Song Wen knows that this guy later transferred to Manchester City for 100 million pounds.
But this is not the biggest reason for his fame.
The reason why the shaker is called the shaker is because he really likes to shake in the bar. Perhaps because of these factors, he did not seem to fulfill his 100 million pounds talent in Manchester City, so many fans put him in the same category as the squinting eyes Nunez and compass Anthony, who also cost 100 million pounds.
However, Song Wen feels that Grealish is slightly better than these two.
After all, there is a saying that goes, if I had 100 million pounds, I would never buy a jackpot. But if I had a jackpot, I would not sell it for 100 million pounds.
At this time, Shaker did not become Manchester City's tempting hip striker. Now he plays as an attacking midfielder in Aston Villa, just like Song Wen.
Noticing Song Wen's gaze, Yaozi seemed to wake up from the BGM. The moment he saw Song Wen, he actually smiled brightly and waved and greeted him, seeming to be very familiar with him.
What Song Wen didn’t know was that Yaozi is now called Little Song Wen in the English Championship.
Because his playing style is somewhat similar to Song Wen's.
Can dribble, pass, shoot and fall to the ground.
The most important thing is that this kid wears tight shorts every day to attract fouls.
In this season's games, Grealish played 24 times, was fouled 67 times, and attracted the firepower of four enemies per game on average. This statistic can be said to be extremely terrifying.
But this data seems a bit small compared to Song Wen's 15 appearances, 81 fouls and players per game.
Therefore, Grealish is also called Little Song Wen by the fans.
This nickname is part of the private conversations among fans and has not been widely spread on the Internet. Song Wen is not aware of it yet.
But Grealish hangs out in bars every day, so he naturally knows this nickname.
At the beginning, Grealish was very angry when he heard others call him Xiao Songwen.
He feels like he is himself.
After all, calling him a draft version of Beckham is tolerable. He is a superstar after all, and we both play in the Championship. How can he become a substitute for your Song Wen?
But after watching several of Song Wen's games, Grealish was completely convinced.
Seeing Song Wen being attacked all the time during the game, Grealish became excited.
Before he knew it, Grealish himself had become a little fan of Song Wen.
With the referee's whistle, the game between the two sides officially began.
After receiving the kick-off from his teammate, Grealish passed the ball directly and then ran towards Song Wen.
As a representative of natural optimism, Grealish's attribute points are mostly concentrated on the two abilities of drinking and language.
After approaching Song Wen, Grealish shouted excitedly:
"Hey Song! You know, I'm your fan! They all call me Xiao Songwen! Hahaha, it's so funny!"
Song Wen was left speechless by Grealish's familiarity.
He took a look at the boy's slicked-back hair, calves, and tight pants, then walked away silently.
As a front midfielder, Grealish naturally couldn't keep following Song Wen. Seeing Song Wen leave, Grealish ran forward and shouted:
"Hey! Can I reserve your jersey first? Can we exchange jerseys after the game?"
At the same time, Villa's midfielder Bacuna slowly ran to Song Wen.
Bacuna is a black man.
But Song Wen only needed one glance to see from the other party's determined eyes that Bakuna was not too affected by his ability as a farmer.
"Hey Bo Rou, where are you from?"
Seeing Song Wen asking himself, Bakuna said:
“Curacao.”
Hearing Bakuna's words, Song Wen was slightly stunned, but he quickly remembered.
In the waters near Venezuela, there is an archipelago belonging to the Netherlands, which mainly consists of three large islands, Aruba, Curaçao and Bonaire.
This Dutch territory has a total population of only 444 and an area of only square kilometers.
The reason why Song Wen knew this place was that one time Song Wen looked at the men's football rankings and found that Curacao was ahead of the Chinese national football team.
The national football team also helped Song Wen learn about place names such as Antigua and Barbuda, which he had never seen in geography class.
After knowing that the other party was from Curacao, Song Wen was surprised that he was not affected by the farmer's ability.
You should know that in the past, Curacao was a transit base for the slave trade. The Dutch would buy black slaves captured from West Africa through Curacao and sell them to other places in America.
And Bakuna is a resident of Curacao, which means that this boy's ancestors were not sold.
If you have never met the farmer, you naturally won’t listen to what he says.
Song Wen was still arguing, and the pace of the game between the two sides was actually not progressing very fast.
For both Ipswich and Aston Villa, this is a game that both sides cannot afford to lose.
Although they all adopted a 4-3-3 offensive formation, they also played very cautiously on the eve of the game.
So Song Wen was not in a hurry, he just walked around slowly to store up energy.
However, on the other side, Zhan Jun in the live broadcast room was so anxious that he started swearing.
"Hey! We saw that Fulham had already broken through Leeds United's goal just less than ten minutes after the start of the game! What's going on? How could it be so fast?"
He frowned and looked at the live broadcast on the other side.
The report on the score website was faster than the live broadcast, so when Zhan Jun looked over, he just happened to see the Fulham player's one-on-one situation.
The Leeds United defenders looked like dead pigs that couldn't run after just ten minutes of the game.
Their goalkeeper chose to take the initiative to attack, but was slightly twisted by the Fulham striker and passed through.
Then facing the empty goal, the Leeds United players seemed to be possessed by the Chinese national team. They no longer chased back, but just stood there helplessly spreading their hands, watching the opponent send the ball into the goal.
"Leeds United, damn it. This could have given him an open goal. What are you doing with your hands?"
The swear words that Zhan Jun blurted out subconsciously made Fan Zhiyi, the king of swear words, stunned for a moment.
But Fan Zhiyi certainly would not try to dissuade Zhan Jun from swearing.
Instead, he became even more excited after hearing Zhan Jun swearing.
"Fuck! Is this really shameless? If they do this, it will be very disadvantageous for Ipswich! We know that Ipswich not only needs to win, but also needs more goals! Otherwise, you can't squeeze into the top six, and all the efforts this season will be wasted."
At the same time, McCarthy on the sidelines also received the news that Fulham had scored and taken the lead.
This made McCarthy frown, but he still stood calmly on the sidelines without saying a word.
He neither reminded Song Wen nor the other players.
After spending half a season together, McCarthy has absolute trust in Song Wen.
The outside world now compares Song Wen to a bomb that can explode at any time.
Either it explodes in the first half or it explodes in the second half.
But no matter what, he always explodes once.
