Chapter 20 Sudden change
Andrew Suleman is definitely the core player of this team. This is Yunfei's conclusion after observing the halftime game. Apart from the opening goal, Andrew Suleman also created many threats on the court.

He is a typical English midfielder, full of energy, strong body, and strong impact. At the same time, Suleman also has the ability to pass threatening balls that ordinary players do not have. He can always find good opportunities to pass the ball in fierce games.Don't underestimate this skill, the reason why Yunfei can use his strengths and avoid weaknesses on the field is because of the vision bonus from God's perspective, otherwise, how could Yunfei play so calmly on the field.

At the end of the first half, the head coach John Craig sat back on the bench, patted Yunfei on the shoulder, and asked, "How is it? Did you gain anything?"

Coach Craig looked at Yunfei with expectations and encouragement in his eyes. He knew that it was useless to just look at some things, but as long as he could grasp the most important point, he would not fall into a confused situation on the court.

"Although Andrew plays as an attacking midfielder, he runs actively in the frontcourt and creates threats. But he has not forgotten that he is a midfielder, and he has never forgotten to defend. After losing the ball, he will immediately press the opposing player with the ball. When defending, he will return to his defensive position as soon as possible, which makes the team's midfield defense unbalanced!"

Yunfei pondered over and over again, and expressed his own opinion, which was also Yunfei's heart. He really admired Andrew Suleman.Many offensive players are actually very unwilling to defend, but standing in the midfield, defense is the basic skill, it doesn't matter if the defense is not good, but it is absolutely impossible to not have the awareness of defense.

Coach Craig nodded in satisfaction, looked at Yunfei approvingly, and said, "Yes, you have to remember that no matter what your style of play is, you are still a midfielder. Don't be in a situation where you won't come after you step up. You are still young. If you throw away your defense now, it will definitely not be good for your future development!"

Coach Craig thinks this way because he has seen Yunfei's talent on the offensive end. If this talent is developed, Yunfei will undoubtedly put his greatest attention on the offensive end.But he doesn't want Yunfei to abandon his defensive ability. As a midfielder, all-round attack and defense is the only way to greatness. A midfielder who can only attack always has great flaws.

Coach Craig is taking this as a preventive shot. He doesn't know if this will happen to Yunfei, but this is a common situation among offensive players. The more talented the offensive end is, the worse his concentration on defense will be. He doesn't want Yunfei to go astray from the beginning.

"Get ready to play, you don't need to go back to the locker room as a midfielder, warm up well." Coach Craig patted Yunfei lightly on the head, "I won't give you any rules and regulations, and I don't ask you to be consistent with Andrew's style of play, you just need to go up and kick out your characteristics, go!"

Yunfei nodded heavily, he felt the importance of the head coach, which made him feel grateful and heavy pressure at the same time.

Coach Craig hopes that he can succeed Andrew Suleman, and he must not live up to the coach's expectations of himself.

……

At the beginning of the second half, Yunfei replaced Andrew Suleman.

"Come on, kid! From now on, it's up to you!"

Su Erman and Yun Fei embraced deeply, feeling a little emotional, he knew that this might be his last youth team match, looking at this childish young man in front of him, he couldn't help but think of when he first came to the youth team, he hoped that the other party could take on this responsibility!

Yunfei didn't answer, but responded with the strength of his hug and firm eyes.At the same time, he thought silently in his heart.

"Come on, it's time for me to act!"

In the stands, Harry Redknapp looked at Yunfei, who was replaced, and then at John Craig, who was standing on the sidelines. There was a hint of envy in his eyes. The youth team is better, and whoever looks good can be given a chance directly, without so much performance pressure.He has been in the first team for a long time, and the burden of performance is getting heavier. He has long been unknowingly becoming more and more realistic. He used to be very willing to give young people opportunities, but now this rarely happens.

On the field, after Yunfei replaced Suleman, Southampton's frontcourt offense began to stagnate. Yunfei, who had never played in this position before, needed to adapt to his new role, and his frontcourt teammates also needed to adapt to Yunfei's style of play.However, after the front court lost its oppressive force, Aston Villa's offensive began to become stronger, and the offense and defense were out of place for a while.

Yunfei learned the lessons from the previous games. While defending, he did not forget that his duty is to organize the team's offense, not to mention that he is now the top midfielder of the team.Therefore, Yunfei has never forgotten to observe the situation on the field at any time.

As Aston Villa's offensive became more and more fierce, perhaps seeing the hope of an equalizer, the opponent's pressure was getting higher and higher, which gave Yunfei a chance.

Taking advantage of a dead ball, Yunfei called his teammates to his side.

"Theo, Gareth, you have to be ready to counterattack at any time, don't rely on the queen mother, as long as there is a chance to counterattack, you need to run forward without hesitation, and I will pass the ball to you!" Yunfei completely forgot that he was just a junior who had just integrated into the team at this time, and began to assign tasks to his teammates unceremoniously, "Andre, after stealing the ball in the backcourt, give the ball to me as soon as possible. If there is no excellent opportunity, don't go forward lightly!"

Walcott and Bell nodded, but they didn't care about Yunfei's dictating. At this time, what is needed is someone to unify their thinking.But the other person was a little embarrassed by Yunfei's somewhat rude tone.

Andre Griffith was a little upset because Yunfei took his position before, but after seeing Yunfei's performance, he no longer had those thoughts of fighting in his heart.However, being commanded by the other party with a critical tone like this still made him feel a little embarrassed, but he also knew his problem, so he could only nod reluctantly.

"I want to see what tricks you can play!"

In his opinion, Yunfei is indeed talented, but he is too immature to succeed Andrew Suleman so soon.

Yunfei didn't notice Griffith's face and the little Jiujiu in his heart at all. He was now focusing all his attention on the field, waiting for the opportunity to come!
