Chapter 592: Goal: Champion!

Famous chefs from the East brought a gourmet feast to the QPR players, allowing everyone to truly appreciate the charm of Oriental food for the first time in their lives.

The banquet did not use the buffet format that is common in Europe and America, but was held in a Chinese style. Everyone ate and drank around two large round tables.

The players all temporarily put aside their identities as professional athletes, let go of their bellies, and ate and drank as much as they wanted.

Tomorrow the team's fitness coach is going to lose his temper again.

But... today's carnival is as it should be.

The team defeated the leader and climbed to the top four in the standings. This is a grand event that qpr has not experienced in decades. How can we not celebrate!

Ricardo naturally looked down on such a little glory. He won the league championship, the Champions League championship, and the World Cup championship. What else is worth looking at.

He rarely does such things as defeating the leader...because his team is usually the leader.

The drinking culture of Premier League players is unique in football all over the world. Since today is a banquet for the boss, although the players will not be unrestrained, it is normal to have a few drinks.

When he was full of wine and food, Ricardo stood up holding his wine glass and said loudly: "We defeated Manchester City and entered the top four of the league. We have achieved our first goal of this season. Everyone, cheers!"

The players and coaches raised their glasses one after another and drank the wine in one gulp.

Ricardo took a sip of wine. He had always been self-disciplined and did not drink or smoke. Everyone knew this and would not persuade him to drink more.

"I looked at the standings and suddenly realized that we are only 7 points away from the leader Manchester City," Ricardo continued, "7 points! As long as we win three more games, we can replace them. What do you think? ? Do we want to stage a QPR myth? Can’t we do what Kaiserslautern can do? "

Quietly, no one spoke for a while, stunned by the concept.

The newly promoted team wins the championship? Isn't this a fantasy. But with Kaiserslautern Pearl in front, it doesn’t seem to be completely impossible.

Moreover, the team has invested so much this year and is in such good shape now, reaching the top four in the league. It seems... that they can really think about the league championship.

Veteran player Creighton Hill, who was already a little confused from drinking, shouted: "Oh, champion! Champion!"

With him taking the lead,

The other players also spoke one after another: "Champion! We want to be the champion!"

"Diego, come and tell everyone." Ricardo planned to give up the stage to Simeone.

Simone smiled: "You've finished talking, what else can I say?"

Clearing his throat, he said loudly: "We have achieved some good results this season, we have defeated some strong opponents. In the competition against the top 5 in the league, we have achieved 2 wins and 1 draw. Frankly Said, I think we are qualified to join the championship competition. What about you, are you mentally prepared?"

"If we want to hit the championship, we must first have a champion's heart. Don't be careless when you are leading, and don't be impatient when you are behind. Everyone should play their roles well and twist together so that it is possible to touch the championship trophy. Tell me loudly , are you ready!"

"Ready! We want to be champions!" the players shouted, waving their arms.

Riccardo was very satisfied with the effect of Simeone's lecture.

After the meal was over, everyone left the table and gathered in twos and threes to talk.

Ricardo talked to several key players separately.

Regarding Modric, he expressed the hope that Modric would adapt to the position of retreating as soon as possible, have a better overall view, and improve his defensive ability. "You will be better than Pirlo. Sooner or later, you will win the Ballon d'Or." He patted Modric on the shoulder and said, making the latter smile happily.

He implicitly expressed his dissatisfaction with Thiago Motta, hoping that Motta could play more actively and be worthy of his highest salary in the team. Motta nodded, saying that he would work hard and not be a fool anymore.

To Klose, Ricardo said: "I am very happy to see that you are still in a very good competitive state. You are an excellent professional player. I signed you, not because I want you to use your residual heat and play health care. Football, but I hope you and Ronny will carry the team's offensive banner." Klose said that he was very happy that Ricardo compared him to Ronaldo, and he will certainly live up to his expectations.

Then there are Vertonghen and Alderweireld. Liccardo hopes that they can continue to improve and adapt to the rhythm of the Premier League as soon as possible. They have very good bodies and are very suitable for the physical confrontation in the Premier League. They can definitely succeed in the Premier League and become the best central defenders in the world.

Ricardo did not hesitate to praise several young substitute players. He said that Van Dijk is likely to become the most expensive defender in the world. He said that Borja Valero has the style of Xavi. He said that Callie Hong has high potential and he said Nainggolan will become the best b2b midfielder in the world...

The players who were beaten by him were very excited.

With his current status in the world, it is no exaggeration to say that he is the number one player in world football.

Everyone is willing to join the newly promoted team, of course, there are financial considerations, but more importantly, it is because of his face, believing that he can lead the team to glory, and that he can help himself realize the value of life.

Today, Ricardo openly shouted the slogan of winning the championship, which was actually very popular with everyone.

Do princes and generals care about each other?

Who said that the league champion must be those few giants who take turns taking the throne!

This dinner party worked out really well.

The attitude of the players on the training ground is much more positive.

On November 19, in the 12th round of the Premier League, qpr defeated Stoke City 4:1 away from home.

On November 26, in the 13th round of the Premier League, qpr defeated Norwich 1:0 away from home.

On December 3, in the 14th round of the Premier League, qpr was at home and slaughtered West Bromwich Albion 4:0.

West Bromwich Albion are in tears. At the beginning of the season, everyone's winning odds were 2,000 to 1, and relegation odds were 4 to 1. We agreed to be relegated together, why did you sneak up to 4th in the standings?

After 4 consecutive victories, qpr has achieved 9 wins, 3 draws and 2 losses, with 30 points, still ranking fourth.

In the 13th round, Manchester City was tied by Liverpool and Manchester United was tied by Newcastle. QPR was only 5 points behind the leader! Only 3 points away from the second place! However, Tottenham also achieved 4 consecutive victories, and qpr was still 2 points behind.

The top 4 in the league bite very tightly! At this time, no one dares to relax!

Next, before the transfer winter window opens, qpr will usher in a little devil schedule.

Playing against Liverpool in the 15th round, Manchester United in the 16th round, Sandro in the 17th round, and Arsenal in the 19th round are not fuel-efficient lights.

If the team successfully survives this period and does not fall behind, then with a little more reinforcement during the winter window, the team really has hope of winning the championship!
