Romantic on the Field

78.

Usually, the first year of promotion is evaluated as a success even if you stay.

Stoke City did the same.

[4 wins in a row in the league, and all wins. The ‘reversal’ of the promoted team]

However, Stoke City recorded a four-game winning streak at the start of the season.

If you simply look at the fact that it is ‘League 4 consecutive wins’, you can pass it. It was quite possible for a weak team to achieve better results than expected at the beginning of the season if they rode the flow well or if their match luck was good.

However, the story changes if Liverpool are included among the opponents with four consecutive wins.

[Stoke City, even caught a candidate for the championship. ]

Following Chelsea, considered a strong player, they also beat Liverpool, considered a strong contender for the championship.

[Stoke City, not ‘remaining competition’, but ‘competition to win’ begins ]

[The butterfly effect brought about by the recruitment of Jamie Lee. From League One relegation to Premier League title? ]

[ gobbao** – To be honest, I didn’t know how to catch Liverpool… I think I’ll win the title.]

[ cacopa** – Has any team won the Premier League in its first year of promotion? ]

b [ honynu** – As far as I know, none. Stoke City will write history this time.]

[ ragany** – Stoke guys are excited again… They barely won against Liverpool because their opponent was sent off. Please know the subject]

b [ ufkamb** – Who threatens you with a knife to get kicked out? It is also a skill that he was sent off for committing an unreasonable foul. ]

[toebei** – It remains to be seen whether it’s exciting or not. ]

[ franky** – You sound like a flutter. If you look at the results, anyone can see that he is a candidate for the championship. Don’t be jealous of the other team’s fans. ]

The words of being a candidate for the championship deserved to come out seriously.

[ Kei Kaneshiro crosses from a distance. ]

[ Damien Manibel, Damian Manibel·······. ]

[ Drops the ball to Robin Price next to him. ]

[Robin Price, shoot! ]

[Gool! I’m in! ]

[Stoke City continues the good flow! ]

As if to prove this, Stoke City took victory in the next game.

[Jamie Lee passes to Brian. ]

[ Brian, are you going to do it yourself this time? ]

[Ah, cutback to Lee in front of the penalty box again. ]

[Uh, Jamie Lee. hit right away! ]

[Goal, goal, goal! Jamie Lee scores another goal! ]

The next game is also won.

[ Jamie Lee catches the ball again. ]

[Brian Recka on the left, Robin Price in the center]

[ Uh, I’m trying to shoot myself from a long distance! ]

[Gooool! It’s an amazing goal. Lee scores another wonder goal! ]

In the next game, as if it was natural, he recorded a victory.

This was Stoke City, who set a staggering record of 7 consecutive wins in the league at the same time as the opening.

“honey. I think I’m really going to win. I’m so excited that I can’t sleep these days.”

As a result, even Hannah, who gave her team a pretty cool evaluation, began to look forward to winning the championship seriously.

“You snored at eleven o’clock yesterday?”

“…”

Although, I was at a loss for words at Jamie’s tip.

“Leeds United, Crystal Palace, Southampton.”

“···yes?”

“The last three games. Coincidentally, they are all opponents from last season.”

“Oh, yes.”

“Well, it’s true that Stoke City is making great achievements right now, but I don’t think it’s difficult to say that they’ve been fully verified yet.”

“Well. Then, how much do you think honey will achieve this season?”

is the expected score. Jamie put down his fork and ran his fingers over the outside of the plate.

“Fourth place?”

“Oh, honey, why are you so cold?”

“ha ha ha. Let’s just be objective.”

“what the. Well, that’s right. In the last 20 years, a promoted team has only finished in the top 10 once.”

After the conversation, Jamie raised his fork again.

The two visited the restaurant ‘The Rifleman’ after a long time. The restaurant hasn’t changed much from what it used to be.

“Mamma, Mamma.”

What changed was the Jamie couple. And the biggest change among them was, of course, the existence of Kai.

“lee. The table over there said it was a gift.”

After a while, as the meal was almost over, the boss brought dessert and drinks and said,

When I looked in the direction the president was pointing at, I saw a middle-aged couple and their teenage son waving.

“thanks. I will eat well.”

Jamie laughed and waved, and they too burst into laughter and waved more fervently.

“Honey, you are a complete idol.”

“hahahaha.”

Soon after eating dessert, I came out of the restaurant and ran into a family who had just finished eating.

“I ate well.”

“ha ha ha. What Li has done for us, this much is medicine.”

if u see this you eather reading in epub or from somewhere other than noble so just bear with it it may break the flow but nothing can be done sigh

My father, whose hair was half blown off, smiled broadly and asked for a handshake. There was no reason to refuse, so Jamie held my hand.

“Dave! What are you doing, he sang a song saying he wanted to meet you like that.”

At that time, the mother pushed her son, who was slightly backing away, and said.

“sign? Or would you like to take a picture for me?”

From a distance, he still looks like he’s in his late teens, but up close, he’s just big, but his face is still a baby.

“no it’s okay. I am satisfied with just seeing it.”

“ha ha ha. I’ll give you an autograph though. Do you have a pen?”

Jamie, who was world class in his past life, skillfully provided fan service.

“lee.”

“Well?”

“Can we win against Manchester City?”

Then, the son suddenly asked a rather challenging question, contrary to his embarrassed expression.

“hahahaha, well. I will do my best, but I can’t guarantee that I will win.”

“Ugh. Okay. I will do my best to support you.”

The father stroked his son’s hair admirably, and they said goodbye and disappeared on the other side.

“Will it be three days?”

Hannah asked, pushing the stroller.

“Against Manchester City? yes.”

“Hmm. If we beat Man City, it would be great.”

“Then seriously, it deserves to be counted as a championship candidate.”

Jamie agreed.

“Kyaha-hahahaha.”

Kai shouted as if agreeing.

**

Three days later, away locker room at City of Manchester Stadium.

“I remember the FA Cup semi-finals.”

if u see this you eather reading in epub or from somewhere other than noble so just bear with it it may break the flow but nothing can be done sigh

Manager Milo Conrad pointed to the whiteboard and said.

“Then we dropped the defensive line and gave Jamie Lee the offense. The result was a 3-1, Stoke City thrashing.”

Then he started moving the magnets on the whiteboard.

“This time it is different. Today, we launch counterfire operations.”

widely. Milo, who moved Harry and Ralph up, finally placed Jamie Magnet almost in the striker position.

“Are you sure?”

if u see this you eather reading in epub or from somewhere other than noble so just bear with it it may break the flow but nothing can be done sigh

Milo’s gaze turned to Jamie.

“Yes.”

Jamie answered briefly.

It was Jamie who had been training for a role between an attacking midfielder and striker for the past few days. Besides, I played as a Trequartista for quite some time in my last life. I was confident.

‘The beginning is important.’

Inside the corridor leading to the field, Jamie thought to herself.

Being confident in oneself and having a team produce good results were slightly different issues.

Even before the signings of Damien Manibel and Kanesiro Kay-KK, Stoke City suffered a 3-1 defeat in the last FA Cup semi-final.

Even that one point was Jamie struggling and barely scoring a goal, and the content of the game was at the level of being completely fooled by the Abel Simon and Ryan Young combination.

The players couldn’t have been unaware of this. There was a high probability that the flow would go over to Manchester City at all if it was pushed too far from the beginning or if it conceded first.

“Jay.”

Well? Someone came from behind holding my shoulder and talking.

“Don’t be too nervous. You can win.”

“…”

Jamie watched for a moment as Brian’s hand on his shoulder trembled.

“···yes. thanks. Thanks to that, the tension has been relieved.”

I was wondering what to say, but I just smiled and said so.

“Ha ha ha ha ha! yes. you can win If you win, even winning a real championship is not a dream. ha ha ha.”

Brian let out an awkward laugh, dripping down to his throat.

if u see this you eather reading in epub or from somewhere other than noble so just bear with it it may break the flow but nothing can be done sigh

Moments later, the game started and Jamie caught the ball and glanced to the left.

‘In the beginning, the left side is discarded.’

I thought it would be better to use another player until Brian calmed down.

‘It would be nice to have a useful right winger.’

Jamie’s gaze shifted to the right.

Today, it was Stoke City that came out with an asymmetric 4-4-1-1 formation without a right winger.

Currently, there is only one right winger in Stoke City’s first team, Troy. And there is a high possibility that even that will not work at the Premier League level, so Manager Milo inevitably came up with a way to not have a right winger at all.

Hue the great ducks army admiral is coming for u all

Ned Keating was recruited for a variety of offensive options, but Keating was more inclined to create decisive opportunities with momentary overlapping. He wasn’t the type to be able to roam around the opposing camp by himself like Jamie.

In this situation, if there is a right winger capable of breaking through the dribble, most of Stoke City’s concerns about the current offensive development would be solved.

‘For example, like Jorge Benjor in good condition…’

As the thought continued to that point, Jamie shook his head briefly. At this critical moment, what a crazy idea. I quickly organized my thoughts and drove the ball on my own.

“Hey, long time no see.”

Along with Ryan Young, Abel Simon is regarded as a key player in Manchester City. He pretended to know.

During the game, you have to focus only on the game. Jamie replied internally and then quickly passed him.

100 million. Abel panicked and ran after Jamie. His skills were impeccable, but he had a strangely sloppy temperament.

‘I beat one guy for now.’

Jamie advanced to the right halfspace and updated the information on the field.

‘left.’

Keating was overlapping.

However, it was not yet the time to pass.

So, feeling like he was wasting time, Jamie beat the opposing central midfielder with a heel fake and then turned to the other side.

Almost immediately, Abel, whom I had passed earlier, stretched out his leg.

Tuduk. This time it was a flip flap.

[ Oh oh ]

The cheers of the fans flowed out. Jamie didn’t care, turned around again, and put a roving through pass into space for Keating to run.

‘done.’

Kitting caught the ball in a good position.

Jamie, who confirmed this, ran to the front of the penalty box.

Damien is in the penalty box.

‘Damien. Pass Damian. The cutback is too revealing right now, so put a cross on Damian. There is a high chance that his cross will be blocked, but he is still better than me. Damian, Damien.’

Jamie muttered in his head as if reciting a spell.

Perhaps through telepathy, or perhaps Keating made a similar decision to Jamie, he crosses toward Damien. It’s not a very honest cross, but an ambiguous course that is difficult for defenders to clear.

However, there was a problem. Because the course was so vague, it was not easy for Damien to receive a cross.

The position and speed were ambiguous to put the head. However, there were too many defenders around to catch the ball and attempt a shot.

‘uh?’

Damian made a choice that neither Kitting, who raised the cross, nor Jamie, who watched the scene, nor the defenders around him expected at all.

As if he were a defender, he kicked off the cross in an acrobatic stance.

‘I’m a crazy bastard.’

To be precise, it was a pass towards Jamie in front of the penalty box.

Jamie gritted his molars and endured the laughter that was about to burst out, and took the rootless pass with a direct shot.

puck.

The shot was very strong and flew towards the goal quickly.

[EE-YEEA! ]

Soon, the cheers of the fans who came to the City of Manchester Stadium resonated.

‘done.’

The beginning is important. In order not to be dragged away, I had to catch the flow or score the first goal in the early stages.

However, as I thought, I scored a goal at the same time as the start.

“ha ha ha-“

I couldn’t help but laugh.

‘Well?’

Jamie, who turned around to do the goal celebration, found Ryan Young looking at him from a little distance away.

It was quite a distance, but it wasn’t too hard to notice that he was burning with a competitive spirit.
