Chapter 82 The Role of Bruce Lee

The Wen Limen incident had a great impact because it involved a famous coach like Wenger, but due to solid evidence, it can be said that it was basically confirmed once it was reported, so hot spots come and go quickly.

Li Chenglong issued an apology statement on his Twitter, and then Wenger in the Premier League also expressed his apology to the Dundee United Club in front of the media. punishment only.

Instead, Wenger's assistant coach Pat Rice announced that he would choose to retire after the end of this season. This was characterized by many media as an early retirement decision due to the influence of the Wen Limen incident.

Li Chenglong felt that Uncle Mi Fan was already quite old, and it was normal for him to retire. The British media just like to label things randomly.

However, Li Chenglong planned to wait for a period of time before he would receive so much attention, so he would call the other party in person, no matter whether the other party really retired early because of this incident, he should call and greet him.

On November 19th, in the 15th round of the Scottish Super League, Dundee United played against Hearts at home.

In this game, Li Chenglong was suspended by the team and watched TV directly at home.

Through the TV broadcast, Jackie Lee saw posters prepared for him by many Dundee United fans in Thanatis Park.

"Bruce, stay!!"

This is the theme of the poster for the fans at the scene.

Hartz's state this season is much worse than last season. Although he is currently ranked fifth in the standings, he is 7 points behind Motherwell, who is fourth, which is an obvious gap.

However, there are five European places in the Scottish League this season, and most of the Rangers will not be able to make it through, so as long as they can maintain the fifth place in the league, they can basically lock in a qualification for the Europa League next season.

In the absence of Jackie Chan, Dundee United played chaotically at home and couldn't create too good opportunities. Fortunately, Hearts didn't play very well, so the two teams finally joined forces and contributed a 0:0. Boring flat.

A week later, on November 26, in the 16th round of the Scottish Super League, Dundee United went away to challenge rival Motherwell.

Li Chenglong continued the suspension and did not go away with the team.

This time Dundee United still couldn't start the game in the away game, but fortunately Peter Houston adjusted his tactics and focused on defense in the away game, and finally held a 0:0 draw.

Two games in a row were tied and four points were lost one after another. Dundee United's league ranking was overtaken by the Celtics, who had won two consecutive victories, and dropped to third place.

The only thing that can make Dundee United self-consoling is that the Rangers at the top of the list have been even worse in the last two rounds. They only scored one point for a draw and a loss.

The reason why homeless people are so unbearable is mainly affected by their financial problems. Recently, the Scottish media has reported that the fact that homeless people will suffer financial penalties has basically been confirmed.

The vagrants have been working hard to avoid financial penalties before, but according to the Scottish media, the British Inland Revenue Department recently issued an ultimatum, and February next year is the deadline for the vagrants to pay taxes and fines.

The Rangers definitely won't be able to pay that much money, and it will be a matter of time before they go bankrupt. The team is also panicked and there is some confusion. The Rangers players have played absent-mindedly for two consecutive games, and they have achieved such results. Nothing surprising either.

In the current standings of the Scottish Super League, although the Rangers have won consecutive victories, the advantage they have established before is large enough. They still rank first with 36 points. The Celtics are second with 35 points after two consecutive victories. Ranked third with 33 points, fourth place Motherwell also has 30 points, not far from Dundee United.

In the two games that Lee Chenglong was absent, Dundee United, which was in good form, immediately suffered two consecutive draws.

Lost four points in a row and missed a good chance to reach the top of the list, which naturally attracted the attention of the media.

In the last two rounds of the league, if Dundee United won two consecutive victories, they would be able to overtake Rangers in points and reach the top of the list.

"This is the role of Bruce Lee", this is the Scottish "Daily Mail" report on Jackie Lee.

"With the outbreak of the Wen Limen incident, the name Bruce Lee has begun to appear on the pages of mainstream European media, but is Lee really that strong? He is really worthy of Arsenal and Wenger's private discussion. Contact? I believe many people have this question in their minds, but I think the last two rounds of Dundee United's games can illustrate the problem."

"During the two games that Bruce Lee was absent, Dundee United was continuously blocked by their opponents and could not find any way to score. You must know that Dundee United was the team with the most goals in the Scottish Premier League before."

"Dundee United scored a total of 30 goals in the first 14 league rounds in which Bruce Lee played all the time, tied with Rangers for the most in the Scottish Premier League."

"But as soon as Bruce Lee was absent, Dundee United immediately became the team with the fewest goals in the Scottish Premier League."

"Because of the last two league rounds, Dundee United is the only team in the Scottish Premier League that has not scored any goals."

"And judging from the statistics, the role of Bruce Lee is also very obvious. In the first 14 rounds of the league, Lee contributed an exaggerated statistic of 8 goals and 8 assists. The number of assists is far ahead of the Soviet Super League, and the number of goals is also the highest. Just one behind Celtic's Gary Hooper and second on the Scottish Premier League goalscoring table."

"Dundee United scored a total of 30 goals, and more than half of them were direct goals or assists by Lee. His importance to this team is self-evident."

"I think this is also the reason why Wenger contacted Li in private..."

Scotland's "Daily Mail" praised Li Chenglong, but Li Chenglong didn't slap them in the face.

In the next week, it will be the fifth round of the Europa League group stage. Dundee United will go to Denmark to challenge Odense, which is basically out of the game.

It was a game where a win for Dundee United would seal the group stage, but for Odense it was just an irrelevant game.

Odense only scored one point in the previous four rounds of the group stage. The probability of qualifying in the group cannot be said to be zero, but it is infinitely close to zero. Generally speaking, the probability of qualifying only exists in theory.

Faced with such a situation, any team will put aside the European competition and shift their focus to the domestic league.

So at the Veiolia Park Stadium in Denmark, the Dundee United team was full of blood and revived.

Li Chenglong did not directly score or assist. He just made a cross pass to Vardy after breaking through the wing in the 41st minute of the first half. The ball went to Joan Daly, and then Joan Daly scored.

Li Chenglong can only say that a breakthrough from the side created a chance, but this ball was indeed an own assist by the opponent's defender.

In the 75th minute of the second half, Conway created a corner kick to help Gary Kenneth head in the goal and also helped the team seal the victory.

Dundee United won Odense 2-0 in the away game, qualifying from the group stage of this season's Europa League one round ahead of schedule.
