Chapter 581 Abundant Talents
This time the youth academy Leeds United can be said to have made a lot of money. John Stones, Maguire, and Pickford are all England's future internationals. In addition, there are 5 young players with S-level potential.
In addition, there are many A-level and B-level players. These players are worth cultivating. Although many people will not represent Leeds United in the British arena, the Leeds United background alone has already explained everything.
Li Yi is also ambitious. He not only wants to make Leeds United a wealthy family, but also make Leeds United a talent pool for England, and let Leeds United's youth training resound the world over.
But these things have to be done step by step, and for Li Yi and Leeds United, the most important thing is to deal with the next game well.
With the end of the international match day, Leeds United players have returned to the team one after another. For now, although many Leeds United players have entered the national team, they are not considered the absolute main force of the national team. This is definitely good news for Leeds United, because it means that they will basically not play two games.
The players who came back naturally found that there was one more player in the first team, and Leeds United players were no strangers to Van Dijk. Apart from Li Yi's relationship, Van Dijk's parents are currently working at the club.
The fully staffed Leeds United began to meet the final sprint, and the next opponent Leeds United is really no stranger, because this round of opponents is the last opponent before the departure of the former head coach Guardiola, Derby County.
It has to be said that the Premier League is not only dense, but also somewhat mixed. The Premier League is currently the most frequently rescheduled league among all leagues.
But it is a good thing for Leeds United, because Derby County is currently the most famous soft persimmon in the Premier League. It has only won one game so far, and only accumulated 9 points in [-] league rounds.
And with Derby County's current performance, relegation is certain. Even though there are still [-] rounds left in the league, it basically has nothing to do with them.
So for this game, Li Yi made another adjustment in the starting lineup. All the players who played for the national team sat on the bench, except for the goalkeeper.
But even so, Leeds United still won a game, and even Van Dijk ushered in his Premier League debut in this game.
Van Dijk himself didn't expect his debut to come so quickly, but even if it was a little sudden, Van Dijk's performance was not bad, which can be seen from the fact that Derby County still failed to score after Van Dijk came on the field.
Even in the 10 minutes of the substitute, Van Dijk completed two steals and two clearances, which can be said to have perfectly demonstrated the qualities that a central defender should have.
Anticipation, calmness, and bravery, in just 10 minutes, Van Dijk let Li Yi see the shadow of the best central defender in world football in the future.
In the Leeds United team, whether it is Kompany, Pepe or even Cahill will belong to the top central defenders in the future, but Van Dijk, who is really crowned the best but ushered in his career debut.
In fact, it is not that no team wants to poach Van Dijk in the past two years, but Leeds United has done a very good job of protecting Van Dijk. In addition, Leeds United's emphasis on Van Dijk has convinced his family to stay in Leeds. United is the best choice.
Besides, the Van Dijk family is now accustomed to life in Leeds. Van Dijk's younger brother and sister are now studying in Leeds.
Speaking of schools, Leeds has one of the best universities in England and even in Europe. Leeds is even called a university city, because there are several famous universities in Leeds alone, among which the University of Leeds is the most famous and one of the top [-] universities in the world.
2:0, although the score was not as crazy as it was when facing Sunderland, Li Yi was very satisfied with what was shown in this game.
In this game, Leeds United's ball possession rate has dropped by about 50.00%, which can be said to have met Li Yi's requirements, but Leeds United's strikers still lack the ability to seize opportunities.
Olic himself is the main force of the national team. After coming to Leeds United, he became even better, and his position as the main force became more and more stable. Falcao also secured his starting position as the main force with his recent performance.
Lewandowski entered the national team ahead of schedule, but he still needs to wait for an opportunity on the bench, so Lewandowski is the starter for this game.
It has to be said that the Polish striker still needs a long time to improve, and according to the current situation of Leeds United, Li Yi is considering whether to rent the Polish striker out next season.
Of course, in addition to this, Li Yi actually has another choice, which is to sell Oliqi, but Oliqi can't sell for much, and Li Yi is also reluctant.
Olić's scoring rate is indeed not high, but Olić has perfect mental attributes and is good at fighting tough battles, and young teams need players like Olić.
But Li Yi also knew that with the rise of Leeds United's young players, Olić's playing time would be further reduced, and Olić himself would propose to leave.
Tangled, but this kind of tangled did not last long, Li Yi is a decisive person, so he decided to wait until the end of the season to directly showdown with Olic, if he is willing to stay on the team, that would be the best, even Li Yi is willing to give a generous contract, if not, then he can only let him go.
Next season's Leeds United's striker competition will definitely be more intense, because with Suarez and Cavani selected for the national team, Li Yi is going to take back the two.
As for Falcao, we need to look at the situation in the summer. If a team's bid reaches Li Yi's price, then Li Yi will naturally let him go. If not, then he will stay for another season.
So for Falcao's ripening, Li Yi still needs to work hard, no, this does not require Li Yi's hard work, just keep using system cards for Falcao.
There is no need to explain the cheating life, Falcao's rise is inevitable, and Li Yi has completely changed Falcao's career trajectory.
Leeds United easily won Derby County, but it was not easy to win another stadium. Liverpool ushered in Middlesbrough at home. When the game ended in 10 minutes, the score was 3:2.
This game is about whether Leeds United can complete the overtake, so it has attracted the attention of the whole Leeds, and Middlesbrough once gave the Leeds people hope, but in the end, hope turned into disappointment.
Therefore, after this round of the league, Leeds United is still 1 point behind Liverpool, and in the next round, Leeds United will be a guest at Manchester City, and the match against Manchester United is scheduled for the No.30 eighth round, so the opponents in this round are self-evident.
