I brush achievements in football

In the end, Jose Fonte's transfer value was 120 million.

Spending this money during the winter break is definitely nothing to change to a Premier League club, but it would be a luxury to put it on Southampton.

At least the fans know that after Perry was confirmed to be absent, the club quickly spent money to buy a central defender who performed well in the British Championship, which also showed their ambition.

"I know that the club's economy is not very good, but I still spent a lot of money in the transfer market this season, which makes me feel very happy. Although our ranking does not seem to be very good, but there is still more than half of the league, Enough for us to catch up with the team in front!" A Southampton fan said confidently in an interview.

Although the ranking is only No.12, although it seems that there is still a big gap from the top six, Southampton is full of confidence from fans to players.

This situation also made Wundt, who just joined, feel a little curious.

He joined the team very quickly. After all, he was a player in the English Championship before, and he is used to the rhythm of the English league—this is why Ji Ya thinks he is a good choice. The rhythm of the English league is faster. Let them adapt, and it is indeed easier to poach people from the local area during the winter transfer.

And as a central defender, he is also the kind of plug-and-play talent.

In the past, Perry mainly played late, but the central defender configuration of one late and one up has long been outdated. Ji Ya has long wanted to let the two tall central defenders take turns to go up and take turns to make up for it. Now is just the opportunity .

However, there was no reason for the newly arrived player to let him play immediately. The next two games happened to be back-to-back during the Christmas period, and both were away games, so Ji Ya didn't let him play.

However, in the next two league games, the flaws in Southampton's defense continued to be exposed...

In the 23rd round, the away game was tied with Brentford one to one.

In the 24th round, they lost [-]-[-] away to Colchester United.

With only one point in two games, Southampton's ranking began to decline again, which also made Ji Ya smile bitterly - after the New Year, without Wundt, it seems that it is really impossible...

In any case, in the two games between Christmas and New Year, Southampton did not let the fans have a good time.

"In the next two games, I will win no matter what." Ji Ya said to himself.

Of course he was not talking about the next round of the FA Cup - Southampton drew a good draw in the third round of the FA Cup, and their opponent is Luton, which has slipped to the fifth tier. Don will not be worried, and Ji Ya will not send all the main players in such a game.

He was talking about the next two league rounds.

Southampton doesn't have a lot of room to lose points now. Although the next cup game will also draw their attention, they still have to perform better in the league.

In the first game after the new year, Southampton won easily. Chamberlain led a group of substitutes to beat Luton [-]-[-] away. Southampton advanced to the fourth round of the FA Cup.

However, Southampton fans really don't care too much about this. After all, Southampton has never encountered a Premier League team this way, and it seems that the gold content is very low in the fourth round.

And neither Ji Ya nor the Southampton fans expected the team to make a breakthrough in the FA Cup—the most important thing is that Ji Ya felt that even if he won the FA Cup, it would not be a happy thing Things, who made the only important championship in Southampton's history be the FA Cup?

Another FA Cup is not making history, there is no extra reward!

From the FA Cup match, Southampton met Exeter City, ranked No.18, but compared with them, Southampton seems to have nothing to be proud of, after all, their current ranking has also slipped to No. 14.

It's only four places higher!

However, in the eyes of Southampton fans, this is only a temporary ranking. We are usually ten places higher than them, so there is no problem!

The final result of this game also made them happy. Southampton defeated their opponent [-]-[-] at home and won another victory after two rounds of invincibility. very high……

Wundt started this game, but obviously the cooperation between him and Lovren was not skilled enough, and the only goal he conceded was scored from between the two of them.

"My fault, my fault." Wundt immediately began to criticize, which made Lovren a little embarrassed.

"This guy has a good personality and can be reused." Ji Ya thought in his heart.

Although Fengt and Lovren seem to have similar technical characteristics, their personalities are different. Fengt is more stable, and has a strong ability to recover and accurately block positions. Lovren is more brave and has a good ability to grab. is excellent.

If these two people cooperate, Southampton's defense may be upgraded to a higher level.

"This signing is the right one." Ji Ya thought in his heart.

The victory brought Southampton back to No.33 position with 12 points, while Huddersfield, who are now in sixth place, reached 42 points, a full nine points more than Southampton.

The next round of the league is at home against Huddersfield.

"This game is very important. We must win... If we win, the gap with them will be reduced to six points. If we can't win, it will be difficult to catch up with nine points."

The math of a football manager is always magical, yet Southampton's players believed it.

The most important thing is to use victory to inspire fighting spirit and confidence when facing the top six teams.

Huddersfield is actually not particularly prominent. They are good at overall offense and defense. After 25 rounds, they scored 48 goals. This number can be ranked third in the league, second only to the top two Leeds and Norwich. Conceded goals but conceded 29, which ranks fifth in the top six.

And their goals do not rely on an outstanding striker, but on the whole, more blooming, and there are no particularly strong players.

Their defense is also average.

Against such a team, if they can show a strong defensive ability in the game, it is very likely that the opponent will have no chance of winning at all!

Keep their offense under control, their defense will always go wrong.

They can always score big scores like [-]-[-], [-]-[-], and at the same time, they will be suffocated by the lower-ranked teams [-]-[-] or [-]-[-].

From this perspective, they are more extreme than Southampton before.

And Southampton, as a similar team, does not seem to be difficult to defeat such an opponent...
