Football: A late bloomer, starting with Leicester City

Chapter 56: The long-cherished pizza date, but doubts abound (please follow up)
Just like that, the game ended completely, and Leicester City suffered its first defeat since the start of the new season.

For them, this is actually something they have to face.

The strength of the team itself means that it is not possible to win the league. The results at the beginning of the season are already very good, and no one can expect them to win consecutive games.

That was unrealistic and never expected.

However, head coach Ranieri is still very satisfied with the spirit and content played by Leicester City in this game.

On the bus back, looking at the slightly regretful players, Ranieri clapped his hands and encouraged everyone.

"Three to four, this is our answer against a top team."

"I want everyone to remember this feeling of failure."

"And tell yourself that in future games, as long as there is still a chance to compete for victory, never prepare to taste this regret again."

At this point, Ranieri's expression became serious, "I have always told everyone, no matter whether you are playing against a weak team or a strong team, don't care about the result of the game."

"We need to focus more on the content of the game and ourselves. For example, everyone should look at themselves to see if they have put in 100% effort and concentration and given everything they have to the game."

"If the answer is yes, then failure actually doesn't matter. It can only prove the strength of our abilities, but it cannot prove that we are losers."

He held on to the seat of the bus, walked back and forth in the bus, and soon came to Vardy's side, "Vardy, we broke through Arsenal twice today."

"That in itself is a good performance and one of the results of the hard work you do in daily training."

He also quickly came to Chen Yufeng's side and said with a smile: "Chen Yufeng, the outside-instep shot that you just showed on the training ground will be scored today."

"It goes without saying. We all want to see more possibilities for any player. Every characteristic increases your capital to stand on this world stage."

"There are also some performances from Mahrez, Kante and other players."

"Putting aside those mistakes in conceding goals, you all did your job well and I hope this gives you confidence."

At the end of the day, Ranieri finally talked about his core idea, "Facing the powerful Arsenal, we completely shattered all the doubts we had before the season."

"Even if the result is not perfect, there is no doubt about our performance."

"With this spirit, I hope we can accomplish more this season, come on kids!"

"I hope you can eat a few more pizzas from me at the end of the season. You haven't touched my wallet since I said that."

"To be honest, for an old man, I don't know how to spend so much money."

After saying the last joke, Ranieri returned to his seat and sat down.

The players' expressions changed slightly, and everyone's mentality gradually changed.

It's as if the previous victories didn't actually bring them much besides joy and excitement.

But this game is different. He gave the players greater confidence and made them really know that if they work hard as a team, they will have a chance to compete with strong teams!

Many players are beginning to look forward to the future schedule, and their desire to compete has become stronger. They are looking forward to the feeling of colliding with the giants again in subsequent games!

They also wanted to eat the pizza earlier that Ranieri had told them about countless times.

After Ranieri's constant reminders, this thing seems to have become an obsession of all players and has become something that everyone is thinking about.

…………

The next day, all games in the seventh round of the Premier League were played.Various sports reports have also increased, and many exciting battles related to this round of competition have been shut down and discussed.

Among them, the game between Arsenal and Leicester City has attracted a lot of attention.

On the one hand, Leicester City showed in this game that they are close to the performance of a top team.

On the other hand, this was their first loss of the season.

In fact, from any point of view, this Leicester City team deserves the respect of fans. They have performed at a very high level and there are no scandals in any aspect.

However, if there are too many people in a circle, it is inevitable that some abstract people will be mixed in.

Some people seemed to not see the score of [-]-[-] and the game scene, and just talked about the defeat.

Under the weekly sports forum, some fans from other teams or some media workers began to comment on the game.

"I said a long time ago that their state will slowly decline over time. I originally thought it would be in the middle and late stages of the season, but I didn't expect it to start to show up in the early stages."

"Okay, I admit that the score is a bit close, but after watching the game, Leicester City is indeed the suppressed side. They have no chance of winning against this kind of team."

"Well, their current results have fallen back to third. I can already predict that they will soon fall back to fifth, eighth, tenth, and No. 13."

"If they play well in the later stage, after covering the number 1 in the front of the standings at the end of the season, they may still have a top-three result."

"Hahaha, I understand. This means that their best result is to leave the relegation zone and go to the middle and lower reaches, a level of more than ten places."

"Leicester City played very well. I really wonder if you watched the game. After watching it, I felt that they deserved their previous victory."

"Come on, I told you, the degeneration of this kind of team usually starts from the first loss. If you don't believe me, read on!"

"Football stories like the Miracle of Kaiserslautern, Danish fairy tales, and Greek mythology will never appear again in modern football. The decline will begin from now on."

"..."

On the Internet, these are actually some comment trends that are easy to see.

Often people ignore the central process and only focus on a conspicuous result.

There is no way to avoid this.

After all, those who ridiculed Leicester City before the season and mentioned to their relatives and friends countless times that Leicester City would definitely be relegated do not want to see Leicester City perform well.

Because that means their judgment is wrong, it means they are short-sighted.

No one wants to be in this embarrassing situation, so when they saw Leicester City losing, they seemed to grasp a life-saving straw and publicized it.

This is a phenomenon that often occurs.

However, a defeat is indeed a defeat, and you can't blame these people for their nonsense.

If Leicester City wants to completely block their mouths and render them speechless, they only need to regain their form and score more points in the next games, and use continuous victories to win everything back!
That is the most beneficial response!
