Father Green

Chapter 127 : Confidence and death!

Seeing Ter Stegen nervously arranging the human wall, Charlotte had a bad feeling in her heart.

Bruma, Mustafi, Wanyama and other top contenders were all placed in the wall by the German kid. Drenthe and Anishbe were interfering with the wall, and Gueye was preparing to attack the goalkeeper. Location.

The referee whistled, and Ross Barkley, who was standing not far from the football, raised his hand and quickly ran up.

When he came to the ball, he swung his dominant foot and hit the football directly.

The football arced over the wall, and Ter Stegen's wall was no problem in height, but it was a little less wide.

Ter Stegen, who already sensed something was wrong, rushed towards the far end of the goal, but it was too late, the football had already jumped into the net before him, bringing a blue flower Spray (for this match, the Everton net is blue).

"Ross - Barkley!!!"

Charlotte swears that she doesn't like the announcer's voice at all, neither deep nor beautiful.

Of course, if he changed the name in his mouth to the name of any Southampton player such as Harry Kane, Sterling, Florenzi, Charlotte swore that he would fall in love with him.

The Goodison Park stadium screamed the tsunami, calling Ross Barkley's name.

With Rodwell's future in doubt, Goodison Park needs a new idol and darling. There is no doubt that Ross Barkley in the youth training camp is the leader of the younger generation.And when Everton was in trouble in this game, Ross Barkley stood up like a hero, and naturally added a lot of points for him to replace Rodwell.

The teenagers, the official youthful era, so even if Barkley scored a goal, they forgot that they should have won this game, not a draw. After the goal, they celebrated wildly and had fun with the fans in the stands. interactive.

Moyes shook his head helplessly. He couldn't say anything about the behavior of the young people. It was impossible to spoil their interest, so he had to let them go.

Charlotte also doesn't like Ross Barkley's celebration, you either don't score at all, score two goals in a row, don't make a draw, how tiring it is to play one more game.

According to the rules of the FA Cup, if the two sides are tied, a rematch will be selected on another day. If the rematch is tied, overtime will be played and then an exciting penalty shootout will follow.

Both Moyes and Charlotte don't like draws. A draw means one more game. Before the results of the league are completely locked, one more game means one more game. Both of them are rushing Going to the league, naturally don't want to waste time on the FA Cup.

If veterans like Tim Cahill and Saha score a goal, they will definitely choose to quickly fish the ball out of the net and wait for the opponent to kick off.

But Ross Barkley got carried away with excitement, and he spent more than two minutes celebrating.

The referee looked at Ross Barkley's celebration and thought that Everton at home had already recognized the draw, so there was no need to add too much stoppage time. The stoppage time was 1 minute. After Southampton kicked the ball out, The referee blew the whistle to end the game.

"A very exciting game, isn't it?" Charlotte and Moyes shook hands after the game.

"Yes, it's wonderful." What can Moyes say.

Although this result was not what Charlotte wanted, but the result was already doomed, so he had to accept it passively.

The FA Cup will be replayed on another day, so Charlotte has to take a good look at the league.

With the "sluggish" period after the end of the last FA Cup, this time Southampton's first-team big brothers learned to be smart, and they were fully fired from the first game against Burnley.

They beat Burnley [-]-[-], Brighton [-]-[-] and Bristol City [-]-[-].

A wave of three consecutive victories pushed Southampton to a climax, and also pushed Southampton's league points to a high of 96 points. Wrong, but Southampton still kept the points gap at [-] points.

There are still seven rounds left in the league, and there is still a gap of [-] points between the two teams.In other words, as long as Southampton draws in the next round of the league, they will be able to win the league championship ahead of schedule, even if Southampton loses all of the next six games and Allardyce's West Ham wins all. Competing for goal difference and the relationship between victory and defeat, West Ham United is not Southampton's opponent.

Facing such a "ruthless" opponent, the entire English Championship was powerless, and even media reporters were saying that Southampton should not play in the English Championship this season, but should go directly to the Premier League, because this It is unfair to the other 23 teams in the Championship.

"Unfair? How did no one say it was unfair when Southampton was relegated from a Premier League team to League One? How did no one say it was unfair when the young guards in white clothes were reduced to this point? There are also seven Serie A sisters. The rest If you want to be fair to something that only exists in legends, it’s better to improve your own strength to pursue the results you want." In this regard, Charlotte said such words during a dinner with her team.

With a wave of three consecutive victories, they are only one point away from the league championship. Charlotte hopes to take advantage of such high morale to win the league championship directly, but it is a pity that people do not want it.

On March 28, the make-up match of the FA Cup arrived.

This game was like a fishbone, stuck in Charlotte's throat made him very uncomfortable, obviously he could end the league directly, but Everton didn't let him do what he wanted.

Holding the black-bellied idea that if you don't make me comfortable, I will make you want to die, Charlotte sent a main lineup to face the FA Cup rematch at her home court.

Among them, Lambert, Al Ganassi and Sturridge coefficient played, as well as Wanyama, Danny Rose, Carvajal and Jose Fonte, due to Gary Monk's retirement has been dismissed Bruma, who Charlotte regards as the main force of the first team, is naturally among them, and the goalkeeper is naturally Ter Stegen.

It is worth mentioning that Lallana and Schneiderlin did not play, they were rested by Charlotte, and they were replaced by Florence and Pogba.

The Premier League has reached the final battle, and they only have seven league rounds left, so Moyes puts more thoughts on the league, this game is still dispatched by substitutes and young players.

However, it was the experienced Saha who played on the front line, the French veteran who had played for Manchester United for five seasons.

It seems that Moyes has given up the FA Cup in name, but he is still unwilling to let go of a Championship team like this.

Charlotte smiled. If it was the Saha six or seven years ago, Charlotte might have a headache, but the current Saha is just a veteran.

For the pair of central defenders Jose Fonte and Bruma, Charlotte is still very relieved. One is a powerful player in his early years, and the other is a strong young man. It is still a bit difficult to deal with a 34-year-old veteran. The feeling of being a bully.

It is a blessing for the team to have two or three veterans in the team, especially veterans who have experienced big scenes in top giants are a treasure.But if such veterans account for nearly half of your camp, it's a disaster.

In Charlotte's view, Moyes' Everton is currently a victim of such a disaster.If Moyes or the owner of Everton can save a lot of money, leaving only two or three veterans, and replacing all the rest with powerful generals, their results will be good in the past two years.

Although I dare not speak out to hit the league championship, it is still feasible to challenge the fourth place in the Premier League in the Champions League and keep the fifth place in the Europa League.

In the end, Toffee's boss was a little short-sighted.

The atmosphere at St. Mary's Stadium was not at all inferior to that of Everton's Goodison Park Stadium. The fans cheered for their team. If the substitutes can retreat at the Goodison Stadium, then Southampton, which is almost full of main players, will definitely not make it easier for the opponent.

A Championship team has pulled down two Premier League teams one after another. They think such a picture is beautiful.

The fans think so, and the players naturally think so too.What's more, for this FA Cup game, their boss sent a substitute lineup to play in the last league game, which gave them enough time to recharge their batteries. Otherwise, with Southampton's current dominance in the English Championship The status only wins a small Bristol City by two goals?
Southampton agreed, but Leeds United and Portsmouth, who were already crying in the toilet, did not agree either.

Seeing that his team has been suppressed in his own half for 15 minutes, Moyes frowned and muttered to himself: "This situation is not right."

Moyes has never been able to figure out where the young guy, who is not like the head coach but should be a youth team player, got the confidence to play against him. It’s just a small Southampton in the British championship. Wearing a red jersey, he thinks Are you Manchester United or Arsenal?Or maybe Liverpool?
The Scot's brow is very tangled. He has never underestimated the Premier League team, even Blackburn and Wolves in the relegation zone, but Southampton?The guy who was still in League One last season?Moyes didn't underestimate them, he didn't even look at them
Not that qualified.

As a result, the Scotch old man's cheeks were burning hot, and he felt that he had been slapped in the face by the other party.

Moyes waved his hand, signaling his team to attack boldly.I have already had a contest with Southampton in the last game, and the opponent will be so tricky and afraid?You all dare to play against teams like Liverpool and Tottenham, and you are afraid of Southampton?
Seeing the changes in Everton, Charlotte smiled happily instead of frowning.Today his team is in very good condition, the players have a strong self-confidence, they feel a little handy when playing the ball, and at the same time they are all the main players.

Therefore, Charlotte is not afraid that the opponent will press out to attack, but is afraid that the opponent will shrink back and play a defensive counterattack.

Self-confidence is a strange thing. If you want to say that it is useless, the key fact is that it can explode with earth-shattering power.You say it is very powerful? Sometimes it is useless, press it out to attack but get stabbed seven in and seven out by the opponent.

But Charlotte knows that self-confidence must be based on matching strength.Otherwise, that thing is not called self-confidence, but "death!".

And now Southampton already has the strength of the middle and lower reaches of the Premier League, and the players are full of energy and confidence, so Charlotte is looking forward to the result of this game from the beginning.
