Romantic on the Field

56.

[ GOOOAL! Jamie Lee’s cross is neatly finished by Ned Keating! ]

Blackpool’s ‘Bus Building’ collapsed due to Jamie’s persistent play.

Soon they showed the reaction that a team that started the game with a defensive focus could show when they conceded the opening goal.

I didn’t know what to do, so I started to wander around.

Jamie didn’t miss the chance, and less than 5 minutes after scoring the opening goal, Ned Keating passed and scored an extra goal.

The result was a complete victory for Stoke City, 2-0.

[LeeTing combination that broke Blackpool FC’s suffocating defense]

ㄴ [ mormot** – what is liting? ]

ㄴ [karman** – Lee and Keating]

ㄴ [waterta** – reduce everything]

[Black Bull FC coach Kevin Stewart, “I don’t think my tactics are wrong. Jamie Lee was just great.” ]

ㄴ [ eternal** – self-justification is coming ]

ㄴ [ sweetp** – But you’re right. How did Blackpool stop Lee, who Man City couldn’t stop?

ㄴ [shakec** – Are Stoke fans still crying? How long are you going to talk about winning against the 2nd team? ]

ㄴ [ stokem** – Man City fans welcome. ]

B [ brewdu** – Man City supporter. See you in the Premier League next year 🙂 ]

b [ shakec** – fuck… yes. See you next year…]

The win against Blackpool had many implications.

‘Stoke City is not a team competing to stay.’

‘It’s a strong team.’

‘No, he’s a candidate for the championship.’

‘You can’t stop Jamie even if you stop the bus.’

And······.

[ Ned Keating runs! ]

[Keeting to break through 40 meters alone! ]

[ Do you solve it yourself? ]

[Ah, this is Brian. ]

[Gool! goal! Brian solves it! ]

[ Jamie pokes a through pass to Robin, who runs behind the defense. ]

[Robin Price, Calmly Scores a Goal! ]

[This time it’s Robin! ]

The next game away at Millwall revealed that the signing of Ned Keating wasn’t just an extra player.

Previously, most of Stoke City’s attacks had started at Jamie’s feet. It was because Jamie was the only player who could carry the ball directly and connect it to a decisive opportunity.

However, Ned Keating was a player capable of both, and thus the utilization of Brian and Robin, which were existing offensive resources, increased.

In other words, Stoke City’s attack options are more diverse.

“Now, if the defense stabilizes, it will be perfect.”

“hahahaha. All recent matches have been scoreless. This is fine.”

Oliver smiled and replied to Mario’s words.

“Are you talking about work again?”

“If you go to family gatherings of co-workers, this is a problem.”

And Mario and Oliver’s wife shook their heads saying they couldn’t help it.

Hue the great ducks army admiral is coming for u all

Now, this is the living room of Jamie and Hannah’s newlywed home.

After dinner, we were drinking tea together.

The babies were being cared for by a specially hired daily nanny, Hannah’s father, Jamie’s father-in-law, Jangsu Choi.

That was not the end of Choi’s long-term support. The meal, dessert, and tea they ate today were all using the catering service prepared by him.

Thanks to that, Hannah was able to deal with the guests with ease, and Jamie, who was uncomfortable with the awkwardness of this place, was able to adjust the atmosphere somehow under Hannah’s guidance.

“Thank you, Jay. I wanted to talk about this when we meet.”

After drinking tea and tidying up the table, Oliver’s wife, Emily, said that out of the blue.

“Yes?”

“Oliver’s face brightened when Jay joined the team. It’s a bit annoying because he always talks about Jay after work, but hahahahaha.”

“···hahahaha.”

“Oh, me too.”

While Jamie laughed awkwardly, Mario’s wife, Gracie, interjected.

“My husband has gotten worse in the last month or two. If this is the case, it makes me want to ask if he should have married Jamie rather than me.”

“···Ha ha ha ha ha.”

Jamie laughed awkwardly again, and Oliver and Mario averted their eyes in embarrassment.

“Shall we sort things out now?”

After a while, when I thought I had almost finished the conversation, Oliver’s wife, the eldest, said.

It was completely dark outside the window. Oliver pulled out his cell phone and checked the time.

“Yes, it is nine o’clock already. let’s go.”

“for a moment. The men are out.”

“Yes?”

“I have something to talk about with the girls. Get out quickly.”

Oliver glared at Mario at his wife Emily’s words. Mario shrugged and turned toward the front door.

what the. Husbands who can’t stand their wives. Jamie looked at it and burst out laughing.

“Jamie? What are you doing?”

“Yes?”

“Jamie is leaving too. We’ll sort this out.”

“…”

Soon he had to go out, too.

“hahahahaha, Jay. Were you kicked out too?”

“I am the landlord.”

“ha ha ha.”

“hahahaha.”

The laughter didn’t last long.

“…what are you talking about?”

“Well. Do you all look at your husband’s disgrace?”

“Hmm, it’s a bit chilly.”

The three married men who had been kicked out to the front door unwillingly just stared at the night sky.

**

‘Women’s conversation’ was actually nothing special.

Stoke City have been performing well since Jamie joined. Oliver and Mario, veterans of the team, are grateful for this. So, I want to give a gift separately, but my wife seems embarrassed to give it to me, so I try to prepare a gift instead.

To sum up, this was all.

“Isn’t it strange? Men seem to be embarrassed about everything.”

“Couldn’t they just be weird?”

“is it.”

After the meeting, Jamie and Hannah were curled up on the couch, looking at their tablet PCs.

“Oh right. Honey, did you see this?”

“Like what?”

Hanna manipulated the tablet PC screen a few times.

[Watford FC coach Tom Cleverley, “How to stop Lee? You can shoot.” ]

ㄴ [ eternal** – Lee sniper ㅡ ]

ㄴ [ brewdu** – Turns out he was a real sniper ]

“…is this real? Did the director say something like this?”

“ha ha ha. yes. But of course it’s a joke. There is also a follow-up article.”

[(Strategy) Director Tom Cleverley eased the atmosphere at the press conference by answering that if he shoots, he can stop Lee. He continued, “The Blackpool transfer gave me the answer. I learned that blindly defending against Lee is not the answer. If you score three goals, you have to score four goals. Besides, we have Marlon King.” ]

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

Marlon King.

Jamie also knew the player the Watford coach was talking about.

“The King of Watford.”

“that’s right. I thought I would transfer after being relegated to Watford… Loyalty is amazing.”

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

Marlon King wasn’t called the King of Watford just because of his last name.

He scored double-digit league goals in the Premier League last year, which earned him offers from many clubs, but stayed with relegated Watford.

He could be said to be a player worthy of the dignity of a ‘king’ in both skill and personality.

“Is this player currently ranked second in scoring?”

“That would be right. Wait, let me check.”

Again, Hanna manipulated the tablet PC.

[ Golcomb ] [ EFL Championship Player Record ]

[ 1 ] [ Jamie Lee ] [ 10 goals ]

[ 2 ] [ Marlon King ] [ 8 goals ]

[ 3 ] [ Ned Keating ] [ 6 goals ]

[ 3 ] [ Damien Manible ] [ 6 goals ]

Then the current championship scoring rankings appeared on the screen.

“Right. Oh, Keating is third. Robin is also in the top ranks.”

Hue the great ducks army admiral is coming for u all

Ned Keating and Coventry’s Damian tied for third. And below them were Robin and Brian.

“Now honey, I can’t even say that we are a one-man team. uh huh?”

Hanna said with a smile on her face. Jamie let out a big laugh and ran his finger across Henna’s nose.

“Aren’t you feeling a bit sad? Even though it’s hard, honey, if you just beat them all and score a goal, you can get more attention.”

Indeed, like a wife, Hannah was well aware of Jamie’s servant instinct.

“hahahaha. There is a point in that statement. Still, for the team as a whole, this is more desirable.”

“That’s right. Anyway, the Watford manager is good.”

“yes?”

“If you score three goals, you can score four goals. what the. No matter how much the king is, to think of a counter fight when our momentum is no joke.”

You can say anything only in the pre-interview. Sometimes, to confuse the opposing team, he would say something completely contrary to the real plan. That’s why Jamie only smiled and didn’t respond.

And time passed, on the day of the match against Watford FC.

‘…was it real?’

Jamie couldn’t help but admire.

**

Watford FC’s home stadium, Vicarage Road.

[There are so many things I want to say to you]

[I don’t know what to say]

[because, perhaps]

[Because you are the only one who can save us]

[and in the end]

[You are our king]

Ahead of the match, Watford’s ace Marlon King was feeling the thrill.

[because, perhaps]

[Because you are the only one who can save us]

[and in the end]

[You are our king]

It was because the home crowd was unanimously calling him ‘King’.

It was a cheering song that I listened to every game, but every time I heard it, it was new and thrilling.

‘Marlon, go and show the dignity of a king.’

Besides, didn’t you hear that from the coach right before the game today? There was no choice but to be thrilled.

‘Yes, this is where I will be.’

In fact, last year he and his wife became quite awkward after rejecting transfer offers from Premier League clubs. It’s to the point where they won’t even serve you a late-night snack, which was always meant to replenish your stamina after a game.

It was right after the baby was born. Expenditures had to increase in the future, and since I had recently moved, my pocket was tight. So it wasn’t that I couldn’t understand his wife’s position.

However, he couldn’t possibly leave this team that loved him.

“king!”

After a while, shortly after the start of the game.

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

Malone immediately seized a good opportunity.

A teammate unexpectedly connected a throw-in to the winger, and the winger immediately passed it to Malone and caught the ball right in front of the penalty box.

‘I said mutombo.’

He glanced at the giant defender who stood in his way.

The power analyst explained that he is a player who is fast on his feet and has good soccer intelligence, despite his size.

Marlon didn’t want to take the risk. So, after turning left, he charged his partner defender.

Two-woong.

‘what?’

Two seconds later, he didn’t immediately understand what had happened.

One of his strengths was instantaneous acceleration after changing direction. But at some point, the ball disappeared and he was lying on the ground.

‘Is it a foul?’

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

Marlon’s gaze turned to the referee.

‘Damn it.’

It wasn’t a foul. The referee signaled the continuation of the match by extending both arms in the shape of ’11’.

While he quickly got up, the defender who took the ball sent the ball away near the half line.

‘lee.’

It was Jamie Lee who caught the ball.

‘Why did the ball go to Lee?’

The ball, which seemed to have been kicked away by the defender, unfortunately flew straight to the opponent’s ace.

‘Dangerous.’

He intuitively realized.

It’s still early in the game, so neither team has a proper defense.

If Jamie Lee was determined and tried to break through, there was a high chance that he would not be able to stop it.

However, Jamie did not break through.

I passed it to winger Brian, who was positioned in the left half space.

Why? Marlon’s eyes narrowed.

After receiving the ball, Brian wanted to move to the center, but at some point, fullback Ned Keating stabbed him from the back.

With that one pass, Watford’s defense, which hadn’t been in order yet, completely collapsed. Two players hurriedly moved to cover the empty side, and the central defender was busy chasing after Robin, who was penetrating at the right time.

Took.

And Keating made a cutback pass to Jamie in the back.

‘not······.’

Before Marlon’s thoughts were complete, Jamie fired a direct shot.
